The road down the mountain is not smooth, and there are thorns and monster lairs everywhere that are difficult to avoid.

Li Kaigu's four people have a clear division of labor, and Li Tiankai and Li Yiru, who seem to be young, impressed Su You and Jiang Nuer, climbed the surrounding trees with a vigorous and flexible body to observe the distance from a high place, and then conveyed what they saw to Li Kaigu and Li Gukai.

The close and coherent cooperation with each other helped the group bypass countless demon beast nests.

But when they were halfway down the mountain, Li Tiankai and Li Yiru, who were scouts in front, hurriedly ran back and said to Li Kaigu and Li Gukai: "Oh no! Not far ahead, a tiger snake has woken up and is wandering around in search of prey! ”

Hearing what the two children said, Li Kaigu immediately turned around and said to Su You and Jiang Nu'er: "Young Master Su, Miss Jiang, if they are not mistaken, there should be a tiger striped viper with strength in the realm of the Five Heavens of the Unsullied Realm in front of him as an obstacle, and now if you want to go down the mountain road, I am afraid it will be a little difficult, and you may need two people to help." ”

"Oh?" Su You was curious when he heard that there was a roadblock in front of him, and after glancing at Jiang Nu'er, he turned around and asked, "How are you going to ask us to cooperate with you?" ”

"Actually, it's not a cooperation." Li Kaigu took out a map and pointed to the routes drawn on it and said: "Later, we will split two teams to attract the attention of the tiger snake and induce it to leave, and then the two of you need to leave as soon as possible according to the route drawn on the map, and then we will meet the two of you at the end of the route as quickly as possible." ”

"There will be no monsters on this route, so you two can rest assured that you can speed up your journey."

After explaining the precautions clearly, Li Kaigu and the other three divided into two teams, Li Gukai took Li Yiru to the left where the tiger striped viper was, and he took Li Tiankai to the right side, attracting each other's attention and creating conditions for Su You and Jiang Nu'er to leave.

After saying that, the group of four people immediately started to act.

Although Li Kaigu and the others did not have a high cultivation realm, with their familiarity with the environment and their flexible figures, they were faster than the tiger striped vipers that were huge and would be pinched when they swam between the gaps.

They jumped up and down in the mountains and forests with a large piece of blood-stained demon beast flesh in their hands, using the smell of blood and deliberate movements to attract tiger-striped vipers.

As soon as the tiger-striped viper smelled the smell of blood in the air, it immediately came to its senses, and then let out a burst of hissing sounds, and quickly chased after the smell of the demon beast's flesh and blood.

Li Kaigu and Li Gukai cooperated with each other to relay, and after a while, they really led the tiger striped viper into the distance.

Su You and Jiang Nu'er took the opportunity to walk out of the shadows and galloped away all the way according to the route given by Li Kaigu.

Soon, the two of them, who had passed through the thorns, found a cave covered with bushes and stones between the stone walls, which might have been the foothold set up by Li Kaigu and his party before.

But just when the two of them were about to move away from the bushes and stones, and planned to wait in the cave for Li Kaigu and the others to come over and join them.

"Wait! There are traces of monster beasts' activities. ”

Suddenly, Jiang Nu'er stretched out his hand to stop Su You, who was about to step forward to remove the stone pile, and at the same time he took a step forward and drew his sword out of the sheath, and the spiritual power aura of the Sevenfold Perfection Realm of the Unsullied Realm exploded, turning straight into pillars of spiritual power light and blasting into the cave in front of which there seemed to be nothing suspicious.

"Boom!"

"Roar!"

The cave collapsed, and a gust of wind and sand obscured the view from falling boulders.

But at the same time, a deep, dull roar rang out from the smoke and dust.

Immediately, the sound of footsteps that made the ground tremble came from inside, and then I saw a huge figure like a hill lifting the dust and sand in the sky, bathing in the falling stones, erecting a tail thorn that emitted cold glow in the dark night, and was about to stab at Su You and Jiang Nu'er in front of him.

"Not good! It's the rock scorpion of Nirvana, we are by no means opponents, run! ”

Seeing that the surface of the demon beast that appeared in front of him seemed to be covered with a layer of rock armor, similar in shape to an ordinary poisonous scorpion, but the size was much larger, Jiang Nu'er found that the spiritual power that he bombarded out hit the opponent's shell without pain, and he couldn't even leave a trace, so he knew that this was definitely a rock scorpion in the Nirvana realm.

Although he could use the cold poisonous aura to temporarily improve his strength, he couldn't protect Su You after all.

So he wanted to let Su You go first and follow by himself.

Glancing at Jiang Nu'er who was protecting himself behind him, Su You was not pretentious, and was about to turn around and leave here.

That's when it happened.

Li Kaigu and his party, who were previously responsible for luring the tiger striped viper away, came here to join the two.

When he saw the huge rock scorpion, he didn't think about running away, but took out a powder bag from the luggage on his back and sprinkled the powder inside at the rock scorpion.

Suddenly, the dust covered the sky, and when the tail spurs fell and touched the powder, the rock scorpion showed a very strange expression of pain, and then took the tail spurs back at a very fast speed.

If you look closely, you can see that the tail spines that have been stained with powder seem to be starting to redden, as if they have been poisoned by some kind of poison.

Li Kaigu hurriedly shouted at the two at this time: "Young Master Su! Miss Jiang! Come on! ”

Su You and Jiang Nu'er, who came back to their senses immediately, immediately followed in the direction of Li Kaigu and the others.

Having an acquaintance leading the way in front is indeed different from walking blindly by yourself.

Although the road under your feet is winding, you can still hear the unwilling roar of the rock scorpion behind you.

But after a short time of incense, the group finally escaped the pursuit of the rock scorpion for the time being, and found a relatively hidden place to rest.

Now, Su You and Jiang Nuer don't dare to underestimate Li Kaigu and the others.

Su You also stepped forward curiously and asked Li Kaigu: "Why did the bag of powder you threw out just now make the rock scorpion take back its tail thorns, and you didn't dare to chase us immediately?" ”

Li Kaigu didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "The rock scorpion can be said to be very common in the desert area, so many people have studied the living habits of the rock scorpion, the food they like to hate and the things they are afraid of. ”

"In addition, we have been traveling to and from this hidden road for several years, and we are really clear about the monsters that live here, so every time we come out, we will bring a lot of self-defense props, including a medicinal powder made from the venom of the tiger snake, in order to delay its actions when encountering the rock scorpion and buy us time to escape."

"Admire, admire." Su You, who seemed to be listening to the Arabian Nights, widened his eyes and sighed, "I really didn't expect to be able to use this method to deal with demon beasts." ”

After finishing speaking, he also gave Li Kaigu a thumbs up.

"That's right."

Li Kaigu shook his head, and then said with a serious face: "But these methods can only delay the actions of the demon beasts at most, and they can't completely kill those demon beasts whose cultivation level is high enough, and it will be even more difficult to achieve if the demon beasts themselves are on guard." ”

"I've calculated the time, that packet of powder can't trap the rock scorpion for too long, but with the temper of the rock scorpion, it will definitely want to catch up with us, so we have to set off now and leave this cliff as soon as possible."

With that, everyone packed up and hit the road again, faster than before.

Soon.

After passing through a muddy pond full of demon beast corpses, Li Tiankai and Li Yiru, brothers and sisters who walked in front of them as scouts to observe the environment, ran back with excitement on their faces, and said to everyone: "You can already clearly see the ruins of the Western Wilderness City!" We'll be down the hill and back on the road in no time! ”
