Volume 1: Illuminating the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 11 The Winding Path

In the dark verandah, only a little moonlight shone at this time, providing a negligible light.

Ji Yuan showed a smile, he stepped aside, pulled Song He out of the way, looked at the two people in front of him with cold eyes, and signaled that they could leave at any time.

"Xiaodao Chief, there are many ghosts and things here, and if we are together, we will benefit both, if we are separated, I am afraid that I will worry about my life!"

The cold man's eyes narrowed, as if he was persuading, but the context was filled with coldness.

Song He on the side frowned slightly, and there was anger in his heart, feeling that the person in front of him was afraid that it was not a brain. When you are sick, you don't want to say anything about what you hide, and you still expect them to be able to give trust and walk together in the eyes of many ghosts?

The so-called famous and decent disciples, could it be that they are all such 'naïve and naïve' people?

In fact, he is just a fool whose skin is thicker than the city walls, and who thinks he is thoughtful and seamless.

Compared with the young Taoist who was unabashedly angry, Ji Yuan seemed more calm, just looking at the person in front of him expressionlessly, and he didn't mean to answer at all.

However, the palm of the hand hidden by the sleeve robe has been quietly placed on the belt, and the soft sword that is so well hidden can be drawn at any time.

"In that case, I also ask the little Taoist to take out some talismans, so that my senior sister and I will not be powerless to protect ourselves when facing many ghosts."

There was silence for a while, and a trace of murderous intent suddenly appeared in the cold man's eyes.

His gaze swept over the two people in front of him, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword was secretly exerting force, and his spirit was already ready to go, and anyone could see that this person could burst out and hurt people at any time.

Although he had expected it, Ji Yuan didn't expect this man to be so shameless, and he said this kind of words without blushing and heartbeat, and he was a little angry at the moment.

It seems that the other party really thinks that his strength is enough to easily pinch them?

The little Taoist shook his head in his heart, turned around and left directly, he had already dispelled the words about this place from this person's mouth, if he had that kung fu, it would be better to think about how to escape from here.

Song He glanced at the cold man coldly, a meaningful smile lifted on the corner of his mouth, and then he didn't look back, and followed Ji Yuan along the verandah.

"The two idiots followed."

The young Taoist reminded in a low voice, with a little disdain in his words.

Hearing this, Ji Yuan's eyebrows moved slightly, glanced at Song He beside him, and then said softly: "Don't pay attention to it." ”

If Li Mufeng is here, or if there are more than three senior brothers on the other side, and not counting the girl who is domineering and open-mouthed, then he really has to be afraid.

But now that the other party is only two people, even if there is no Song He, the little Taoist priest does not feel that if he really fights, he will definitely lose.

And at this time, he may not have thoughts similar to the other party's earlier, and wants to use these two people as pathfinder chess pieces to avoid some dangers that he doesn't know.

There is no doubt that this cold man must know some inside information, and he may not even know clearly the true heels and feet of the ghosts here.

Since he was reluctant to reveal a thing or two, and it was this gesture that grasped and ate them, it was no wonder that Ji Yuan took advantage of the situation and used the ghosts here to tempt.

As for whether the other party will be in danger in this process, or even bury their own lives, it can only depend on their luck.

He is not a Confucian sage, and he can't do this kind of thing to repay grievances with virtue, since the other party wants to use him as a pathfinder pawn, regardless of his life, and he is even more unwilling to tell half the truth at this time, it is no wonder that he still uses the same means.

"Huh?"

Ji Yuan had just made up his mind in his heart, but suddenly had a strange feeling.

It's just that before he could feel it carefully, as he stepped into the courtyard gate in front of him, the surrounding scene immediately changed, what should have been an elegant courtyard turned into a winding path in an instant.

On the left and right sides of the trail, every dozen paces there is an old tree, with cracked bark and bare branches, which makes people feel a little chill in the moonlight.

And at the end of that winding path, a small house shrouded in moonlight and gloomy air could be faintly seen.

Song River was standing beside him, his gaze crossing the winding path and landing on the faintly lit candlelight.

After a hurried glance, Ji Yuan hurriedly retracted his gaze, and then turned to look, who knew that the verandah that should have been behind him had disappeared at this time, leaving only a quiet path filled with white mist.

After a few breaths, as the white mist rolled, the cold man and the girl walked out one after another, and after a brief loss of consciousness, they looked around with a stunned expression.

"Why is this happening?"

The grim man suddenly asked, with a chill in his words.

He frowned and looked at Ji Yuan not far away, but who knew that the other party had not heard of his questioning, and was still looking at the surrounding environment by himself.

Seeing this scene, anger appeared on the cold man's face, but after weighing it in his heart for a while, he forcibly endured the intention of making a move with anger, and with a cold snort, he took his junior sister and turned his head and strode into the white mist behind him.

It's just that the two of them just walked into the white mist, and then walked out of it, and in the blink of an eye, they had already returned to the place where they had stood.

The cold man didn't believe in evil, and he didn't even greet the junior sister around him, and turned around again in silence and walked into the white mist, but no matter how many times he tried, the final result was not the same.

And these few attempts also made his face completely gloomy, and his body exuded a cold murderous aura.

"It looks like we have to move forward."

Song He glanced back at the cold man who was on the verge of an outburst at this time, and then said out loud.

Hearing this, Ji Yuan nodded his head, and the two of them verified with their own actions that it was impossible to turn back.

He turned to look back at the winding path in front of him, but he didn't take a step, after all, no matter how he looked at it, what was happening at this time was too strange to say that there was no problem at all, and I am afraid that even a young child would not believe it.

"Let's go."

After weighing it for a while, Ji Yuan could only sigh helplessly.

Since the ghosts entrenched in this place have deliberately led them to this path, if they don't do what the other party thinks, who knows what immeasurable things will happen.

For now, the only way to do this is to take one step at a time and see what the other party is having.

So after a light sigh, Ji Yuan took the lead on the winding path in front of him, and as he stepped on the staircase made of stones, a cold breeze blew inexplicably.

The cold man beside the white mist, seeing the figure of the little Taoist priest and the young Taoist, was walking farther and farther on the winding path, and after a little hesitation, he hurriedly followed, but his expression was hurried, his eyes were anxious, and he even forgot to greet the junior sister beside him.

When the girl saw this, her face immediately showed anger, but after glancing around, she could only forcibly suppress the thoughts in her heart and silently followed behind the cold man.
