And I have a lot of connections in Crescent Town, so if you encounter any more obstacles, I can help. ”

I thought about it carefully, and thought that what she said made some sense, and in case we encountered some townspeople who didn't know the truth along the way, having Xiao Qiao here would save us a lot of trouble.

After consulting with Lonnie and Bai Ze, they had no problem with this, so I agreed to Little Joe and allowed her to join us on this expedition.

"You must follow us closely, don't run around without permission, and follow our commands when you encounter situations, can you do it?"

Xiao Qiao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, master, I will definitely be obedient, I will do whatever you tell me to do." ”

I nodded, didn't say anything, and a few people followed the flower fox and walked out of Crescent Town.

Cortana was fast, and before she could walk for a moment, she stopped, stuck her nose out to sniff the air, and then moved on.

We followed it and trekked all the way, for I don't know how long, when the sky began to darken, and a thick fog began to appear in our vision.

Only then did we realize that Cortana had led us to a valley in a mountain valley.

"Mr. Cheng, that manor is in front."

Cortana suddenly stopped and said to me.

I followed Cortana's line of sight, and sure enough, not far from the valley, there was a row of imposing buildings standing there, looming in the mist.

"Let's go, go in and have a look."

So saying, we began to march in the direction of the manor.

Just walking and walking, I noticed something was wrong.

We have walked for more than ten minutes since we first saw the manor, but the manor still keeps a certain distance from us, hidden in the fog.

The manor seemed to be deliberately playing peek-a-boo with us, and as we moved forward, it kept retreating, keeping us from approaching.

After walking for more than ten minutes, there was still no sign of approaching the manor, and at this time, Bai Ze and Langnie also realized that something was wrong and stopped one after another.

"What's the matter, did we fall for the ghost and hit the wall?"

Bai Ze said with some puzzlement.

"No, the ghost hitting the wall can only work on ordinary people, and it is impossible to trap the Ma family immortals."

Lonnie shook her head, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the protective barrier that Cortana is talking about, this is a special kind of obstacle, made of a mixture of death and resentment, and any living creature that enters it will be trapped." ”

I also came to my senses: "No wonder, this place is not too far from Crescent Town, but none of the townspeople know about the existence of this place, and it seems that everyone who knows this place has been trapped in the fog." ”

Lonnie nodded: "Xiao Chengzi, try the paper kite that leads the way." ”

"Okay."

I took out a yellow talisman, quickly pinched out a paper kite, took out cinnabar and gently touched the paper kite's eyes, and then threw it casually, and the paper kite flew into the air and began to lead the way.

When Xiao Qiao saw this scene, he was excited: "Master Cheng, are you performing magic?" It's amazing! ”

I explained: "The paper kite is a necessary technique for our Ma family, which can break through the obstacles and lead to the way of life. ”

This trick really worked, and where the paper kite passed, the fog dissipated, and under the guidance of the paper kite, we soon walked to the place where the manor was.

The gate of the manor was already rotten, and with a slight push, the doorway made a screeching sound.

Through the exposed gaps, we went in one by one, and the interior of this mysterious manor was finally revealed to us.

The interior of the estate is very vast and endless, with countless roads intersecting with trees and flowers planted on both sides, and it can be seen that the builders made careful designs at the beginning of its construction.

It's just that because they are too old and uncared for, the branches of those trees have grown savagely, and they have long been intertwined with each other, covering the whole sky.

The flowers and plants on the ground also spread wantonly, covering the entire ground, and a cold wind blew, scattering countless branches and leaves on the ground, adding a sense of depression and dilapidation.

In the line of sight, from far to near, there are many marble buildings, standing alone, the walls are covered with creepers, and the stained glass of the windows completely hides the situation inside the building, which is even more mysterious and weird.

Just standing in this environment for a few seconds, I felt an inexplicable sense of sadness that permeated my body and mind.

I know that this is the psychological suggestion caused by the unique aura of the manor, and if you let yourself immerse yourself in it, the consequences will be unimaginable.

So I quickly bit my fingertip and applied a drop of fingertip blood to my forehead, and then I regained my composure.

"This is the manor I dreamed of, everything is so real, I really want to cry......"

Seeing that Xiao Qiao was also beginning to be immersed in sadness, I drew a scoop on the gourd to help her break free from this emotion.

"Little Joe, do you remember where you were going in your dreams?"

Xiao Qiao shook his head: "I don't know, it's just that every time I am in a dream, I seem to hear, as if there is a voice guiding me to a certain place." ”

"That voice came again, and it kept me going all the way down here, all the way forward......"

I immediately said, "Don't resist that voice, just follow its guidance, and we will protect you." ”

Xiao Qiao was relieved at this time, and walked along the dilapidated road to the depths of the manor.

Along with Lonnie, Bai Ze, and Cortana, I followed her closely, keeping an eye on the situation around me.

As I walked, my heart suddenly tightened, and when I raised my eyes, the bushes above my head shook slightly, and there seemed to be a shadow flashing by.

I stared at the canopy for a long time, but I didn't notice anything unusual, so I lowered my head and continued on my way.

Sou!

At that moment, a sharp whistling sound was heard, and I jerked my head up, and I saw a monster that looked like a human head was cracking its mouth and swooping down on me!

I quickly drew the Warrior King's whip and slammed it towards the monster.

Syllable!

With a crisp sound, the monster turned into a cloud of blood mist and dissipated.

"What's that?"

Lonnie and Bai Ze, who were walking in front, also noticed my movement and quickly turned around and asked.

"I didn't see it clearly."

I smiled wryly and shook my head: "It's like a flying human head that suddenly came out of a tree branch and launched a sneak attack on me." ”

"This manor is too weird, we don't know what terrible monsters are waiting for us in front of us, everyone must be vigilant."

As soon as I finished speaking, Xiao Qiao, who was walking in front, suddenly let out a miserable scream.

We hurried over, and saw a human-headed monster showing a pair of sharp fangs, biting Little Joe's hair and refusing to let go.
