Listening to the strange wails of pain, we stopped our progress and looked at each other.

"Did you hear any strange noises just now?" I asked.

At first, I thought that I was hallucinating in the illusion.

But after many inquiries, we found that Huineng also heard the strange sound, and we stopped moving forward and began to look for the source of the sound.

Finally, we found an old man sitting on the ground in a small forest.

But there was a strange thing, I had tried hard to focus my eyes, but I couldn't see the old man's face.

I could only see him faintly, sitting on the edge of the grove, his hands on his feet.

"What's wrong with you, old man?" Huineng stepped forward to check.

Because of his identity, and his Taoism is not low, plus the old man is injured, so I don't worry too much about the old man making any sudden moves against him.

"The old man was useless and was going to return to the village from the mountains, but the fog was too wet in the early morning, so I accidentally fell here. Can you send the old man home, a few well-wishers? ”

The old man covered his injured leg with his hand, and his tone was full of grievance.

We have other things to do now, and it's urgent, and we'll have to waste another day if we want to get him down the mountain.

As I was thinking this, a white light flashed through my mind.

That's not right.

We can't do anything about this.

Because we're still in the illusion, we need to find everything to escape here.

"How did you get up the mountain?" I asked.

The old man sighed before answering me: "I went up the mountain at noon yesterday, and the girl in the family was sick, so I came up to pick some herbs."

But as you know, you cannot go through the night in this mountain.

So I waited until dawn before I planned to go down, but I didn't expect that in the early morning, the fog was so wet, and I slipped and fell.

The basket carrying the herbs also rolled down the mountain.

What a sin! ”

The old man said, his tone suddenly choked.

If this is the case, according to the time calculation, he is indeed one of the victims.

Because this illusion was only opened in the middle of the night last year, he should have been hiding somewhere at that time, and he didn't dare to go out of the mountain, so he didn't know that the illusion had been opened.

In addition, Huineng and they also told me that it was indeed a bit foggy this morning.

As it sounds, there is no need for this old man to lie to us.

"We're stuck in the mountains now, and there's no way down the mountain." I sighed and shook my head.

We ourselves are in a predicament, and although we would like to take him with us, if something happens and we can't protect him, we can't explain it to his family.

But then again, it's really inhumane to leave him alone in the mountains.

All of a sudden, I don't know what to do, and now every decision we make is a matter of life and death, and we must not make mistakes, we must think clearly.

"You're saying we're stuck in the mountains now?" The old man looked at me a little puzzled: "Could it be that you are talking about an illusion?" ”

Hearing the old man's words, I was a little stunned.

This person is probably a bit of a Taoist, otherwise he would not know such a thing as an illusion, even if it is complete, he has grown up in this village since he was a child, but he may not know the illusion.

Besides, I haven't been able to see what the old man looks like since I started talking to him.

I began to wonder if he would be an old immortal in this mountain.

I have always said that there is a mountain god in this mountain, so will he be the incarnation of that mountain god?

If it's in real life, maybe it's not unscientific.

But the environment we are in now is in a fantasy world, and I wouldn't be surprised even if I saw prehistoric dinosaurs.

I rolled my eyes and thought of some questions to ask the old man.

If he really is the mountain god of this mountain, then he should know about the situation when we leave here.

But if he's not, I can also use my question to test him as to why he's in this place.

We will definitely help people, but we will not help everyone.

Especially now that we are also facing difficulties, I have to learn to be ruthless and learn to protect myself.

"Yes, we're in a fantasy right now. Faced with this situation, there is no way to leave now. Is there anything you can do to get us out of here? I asked.

The old man didn't answer my words immediately, he just quietly looked at Huineng, who was half-kneeling on the side to help him with his wounds.

After Huineng completely healed his wounds, he said, "The terrain of this mountain is relatively dangerous, and the only ones who can open the enchantment are the demon beasts of this mountain.

You are outsiders, and you may not know.

Demon beasts have been on this mountain for a long time, at least a few generations.

Because no one can defeat him, we slowly avoid him.

Now we have no way to break the illusion, we can only find the key to break the illusion.

In addition to the blood of the people in the village, the key also has the stones in the body of the demon beast. ”

The old man reached out and touched his nose and said, "Do you know if there will be other people in this mountain?" ”

I looked at Dong Jing and didn't know if I should confess everything at this time.

I saw Dong Jing's expression, and she seemed to be a little suspicious of the old man in front of her.

"If there are really people in the village, then there is a good chance that they are in the fox's den." When the old man saw that we did not speak, he added.

Fox Nest?

In such a long time, we have all encountered the other five immortals, but the fox, we have not yet fought against them.

"Where are you talking about the fox nest?" Huineng looked up and asked the old man.

Huineng, this kid, is sometimes not very smart.

He asked this question, which means that we know that there are other villagers on this mountain.

And the villager has been kidnapped by something from the mountains, and we have to go find him now.

Just Huineng's sentence has already expressed our next plan to the old man.

The old man smiled and looked at me: "You kid knows, don't tell me this." Are you playing psychological warfare with me? I say to you, I am now in the same direction as you. If something happens to all of us, then no one should think about going down.

You are not familiar with life, I can lead the way. ”

The old man looked at us with a bad look in his eyes.
