The old man nodded slowly, and said in a somewhat low voice: "You only need to circle around the stone tablet three times, and then shout, and the exit will open." ”

When the three of us heard this, we couldn't help but be a little stunned, I didn't expect it to be so simple?

The old man looked at us with a stunned expression, but just smiled indifferently.

"Isn't it easy? But remember, this is a secluded valley, and not everyone can get in. ”

The old man's words surprised me a little, Secluded Valley? The name seems to have been heard somewhere.

Reiko looked at me with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and I shook my head and motioned for him not to say more.

"Junior, thank you for the old man's guidance, let's go out immediately."

I thanked the old man with my hand, and at the same time motioned with my eyes for Lei Zi and the lone wolf to prepare to leave.

The old man nodded with satisfaction and watched the three of us prepare to leave.

Just a few steps out, the old man said behind him: "Remember, your choice is correct. ”

I turned my head and looked at the old man's ethereal figure, and I had some doubts in my heart.

Leaving the secret realm, we returned to the outside of the secluded valley, looking at the familiar scene, and we all felt some emotion in our hearts.

"It's finally out."

Lei Zi let out a sigh of relief, looked at me and said, "Xiaolin, do you know? I almost thought we wouldn't get out. ”

The lone wolf didn't speak, but the emotion in his eyes said it all.

"Xiaolin, our route has been changed, I'm afraid we have to change the route, otherwise how can we go back?"

I looked back at the closed door of the Valley of Tranquility and took a deep breath.

"We need to find our way back."

When Lei Zi heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Then what should we do now?" ”

I shook my head, feeling a little helpless in my heart: "I don't know, I can only leave first now, and then find a way to go back." ”

When the lone wolf heard this, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "We can go back the way we came." ”

I nodded and looked at the lone wolf: "Okay, then let's go." ”

The three of us began to move along the way we came, and there was no speech along the way, only the sound of footsteps ringing in our ears.

After only about half an hour of walking, we finally walked out of the confines of Secluded Valley.

Looking at the familiar scene outside, all three of us breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, let's split up and see if we can find our way back."

I said to Thunder and Lone Wolf, both of whom nodded.

We split up, and I searched the way I came, hoping to find some clues.

After walking for about an hour, I came to a mountain forest, looking at the familiar surroundings and feeling a little puzzled.

The three of us were silent all the way, and the atmosphere was a little depressing. The scenery of Secluded Valley was beautiful, but our hearts were heavy.

I kept thinking about what the old man said, "This is a secluded valley, and not everyone can come in." ”

And I always feel that this sentence seems to imply something, but I can't say why.

Lei Zi seemed to see my worries, and took the initiative to speak: "Xiaolin, what are you thinking? ”

I shook my head and sighed, "I just think that old man seems to be hinting at us something."

When Lei Zi heard this, his eyes became a little puzzled: "Hint? Didn't he say that if you just go around the stone tablet three times and shout, the exit will open? I don't think he meant anything else. ”

I stopped and looked at Lei Zi and Lone Wolf: "However, I always feel that the old man's words seem to imply to us that this secret realm is not just that simple. ”

The lone wolf didn't speak, just looked at me silently, obviously analyzing what the old man had said.

I took a deep breath and continued, "Perhaps, we just came across a relatively simple puzzle. ”

"But I'm afraid that in the future, we may encounter a more complicated situation."

Lei Zi pouted with some disdain: "Xiaolin, are you thinking too much?" The most important thing for us now is to find our way back. ”

I nodded, agreeing with Rezi's words. Now, we really need to find our way back first.

The three of them continued on their way, not speaking all the way, only the sound of footsteps landing sounded in their ears.

It seems to be a little different from the way we came, but I can't tell you how it is different.

Lei Zi looked at the surrounding environment, frowned, and said, "Xiaolin, have you noticed that the road we came on was a little different from this road?" ”

I nodded, thinking back to the way we came, and it was indeed a little different from the way we are now.

But this difference is not obvious, and if you don't look closely, you can't detect the difference at all.

"Xiaolin, do you think we're going to get lost?"

I shook my head and looked at Lei Zi and Lone Wolf: "I don't know, but we can only move on now and see if we can find our way back."

The lone wolf didn't speak, just looked at me silently and gave me a look with a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

We kept going, but the atmosphere was getting more and more oppressive. As you all know, we've lost our way.

I was looking for clues along the way, and until nightfall, I still didn't find the way, and I couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

We had to light a fire, and the three of us sat around a campfire, silently thinking about our thoughts.

"Xiaolin, do you think we will die here? It's been going for hours. ”

Lei Zi still opened his mouth and broke the silence first, looked at me and asked seriously.

I shook my head and looked at Leizi: "I don't know, but we can't give up."

When the lone wolf heard this, a trace of firmness flashed in his eyes: "Yes, we can't give up."

"The map that the main thunderson has does not seem to have a detailed map of this area"

"Otherwise, we would be stuck here, walking for hours on end and unable to leave"

The two of us continued to talk while I kept analyzing in my head why we couldn't leave.

"I don't know what kind of power this area has, and I can't even explore the secret art of feng shui."

After enough rest, we extinguished the fire and began to continue looking for a way out.

Until the sky gradually darkened and the sun completely set, there was no intention of leaving.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, there is some despair in my heart. We seem to be stuck here.

At this time, Lei Zi opened his mouth and sighed: "Don't waste your efforts, let's walk here"

"On the tree next to it, there is a mark I left behind, if you don't believe you can go and take a look."

When the lone wolf heard this, he really walked to the big tree seven or eight meters away on the left to check.

Soon, the lone wolf stood under the tree, turned around and shouted to us, "Leizi is right, it is indeed a mark"

Suddenly, a sound rang out around us, and all three of us were startled.

Lei Zi's eyes were quick, and he quickly picked up the Cao Hao sword behind his back, and looked around vigilantly after pulling it out.

The lone wolf quickly climbed the big tree marked by the thunder next to it and observed the surrounding movements from above.

I stood up, ready to fight, and secretly pinched a trick in the palm of my hand.

After all, listening to the sound, there seemed to be a lot of movement all of a sudden, and the sound of ropes was getting closer and closer to us.

A pair of green eyes gradually appeared around us, and there were many of them, instantly surrounding the three of us.

In the dim moonlight, I could finally see the appearance of these creatures close to us.

They are short in stature, with sharp claws and fangs, and covered in thick hair, making them look like wild beasts.

His skin is gray, his appearance is extremely ugly, his eyes are glowing green, and his mouth is constantly emitting high-pitched screams.

Looking at the dense monsters around us, the three of us were nervous, and these monsters seemed to be difficult to deal with.

Lone Wolf and Thunder drew their weapons and prepared to fight these monsters, and I was ready to strike.

However, the next moment, I noticed a strange phenomenon, these monsters did not seem to dare to come near us.

They just wander around, but they don't dare to get a step close to us, which makes it elusive.

I followed the gaze of the first large, gray-haired monster and saw that it was looking at me.

It ended up on my waist and kept staring, as if to see me through.

At this moment, I finally noticed something unusual, a green point of light, floating out of my waist.

I looked down and saw that it was Xiaoqing, who had cultivated the Tao in Changbai Mountain, and a scale that she had given her own hand.

I took it off my waist and saw the monsters surrounding us, all of them taking a step back.

"Damn, so these monsters are afraid of this?"
