Trapped Beast Chapter 91 Little Dead Mountain
The small dead mountain has many cliffs, and the terrain is strange and steep, which has long been heard from Yan Qibai's mouth. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, Su Yi couldn't help but be amazed.
The group sometimes passed through a canyon with cliffs on both sides, and then walked forward, thinking that it was about to suddenly open up, but did not want to see another cliff in front of them. Or the towering and sloping mountains on the left and right sides are almost connected, like a heavenly gate. The strange terrain makes people have to stop again and again.
"This is the eleventh place. Such a cliff, even the Su brothers, who have walked a lot of mountain roads, will be impressed by it, right?" Just as Su Yi sighed, Cao Jing walked to his side and said, "However, compared to the Great Death Mountain, this Little Death Mountain is nothing. ”
"The Great Death Mountain?" Su Yi wondered. He had heard something, but he didn't know much about it.
"I heard that the Great Death Mountain is several times more exaggerated than here. Cao Jing glanced at Su Yi and said: "It is said that the Little Dead Mountain is steep, but in fact, it can only be regarded as 'strange' at best, and the Big Dead Mountain is the real 'dangerous'." ”
"Then if you have a chance, you must go to the Great Death Mountain. Su Yi smiled.
When the two were talking, He Yang had already thrown the "flying hook" onto the cliff, chiseled a climbing nail on it, and led a few people to climb up cautiously.
Su Yi raised his head and shouted: "Brother He, you have to look for it carefully, and if you find it earlier, we can go home early." ”
He Yang only paused slightly, and continued to climb up without looking back.
Cao Jing smiled and said: "Brother Su is still careful, otherwise they will be perfunctory at will, and they will still be able to get a good reward when they go back, then I really want to cry without tears." ”
After waiting for a long time, the rope hanging over the cliff finally shook suddenly, and the two bells hanging on it rang loudly. Everyone was overjoyed and excited, this was the signal agreed by He Yang, and the bell rang to mean that they had found a plant suspected of "night hidden wall dew". Cao Sheng looked up excitedly, and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Cao Jing.
"Second brother, don't be impulsive. Cao Jing said.
Cao Sheng scratched his head and wondered, "Big brother, don't you need me to go up and have a look?"
"Just leave this matter to Brother Su," Cao Jing said, "This is what I said before." ”
Su Yi knew that Cao Sheng was not worried about himself, and he didn't care, so he immediately smiled: "I didn't expect it to be so smooth." As he spoke, he squatted down and said, "Miss Cao, let's go." ”
Cao Lingcheng blushed and clinged to Su Yi's back, and said softly: "Brother Su Yi, I'm tired." Cao Sheng was staring at Su Yi from the side, as if he was going to eat Su Yi.
"Be careful. Cao Jing only gave one word of advice, and then didn't say anything more.
Su Yi climbed up along the rope. This was not a difficult task for him, but he needed some help to search an entire mountain. He Yang used ropes to divide several routes on the cliff, and several people searched in different directions at the same time. Su Yi looked up, there was a cloud of mist above, and there was no figure in sight. He had to fumble little by little.
"Close your eyes, I'm calling you. Su Yi said to Cao Lingcheng on his back.
Cao Lingcheng answered, closed her eyes, and the hand around her neck was harder. Su Yi could feel her nervousness, so she tightened the rope tied to the two of them, her body was closer, and the warmth from Cao Lingcheng's body became clearer.
I followed the source of the rope swaying, and finally saw He Yang when I was close to the top.
"Brother He is really efficient. Su Yi said politely.
He Yang didn't play any more tricks, nor did he speak, but just turned sideways, revealing a plant behind him.
"My task is complete, Brother Su, please take care of yourself. He Yang said that, and returned to the ground along the rope without looking back.
Su Yi ignored him and immediately took a closer look at the plant. I saw a petalless stamen, wrapped in four or five slender green leaves, with a crystal clear dew on it. But it is exactly the same as what Yan Qibai described.
"Miss Cao, do you see this is the night hidden wall dew in the atlas you have seen?" asked Su Yi.
Cao Lingcheng finally opened her eyes, and after a glance, she said happily: "This is it." Great, Brother Su Yi!" The cold wind blew and her voice trembled a little. Although Cao Lingcheng was excited, she immediately buried her head on Su Yi's back and hugged him tightly.
The hearts of the two of them were finally relieved, and Su Yi was also relieved, and said with a sigh of relief: "Great..."
When they returned to the ground, Cao Jing and the three of them couldn't help but show expectant looks.
Su Yi also lived up to expectations, and said with a smile: "I found it." ”
Cao Sheng rushed forward first, wanting to take the mud pot in Su Yi's hand, but was avoided by Su Yi.
"Second Brother Cao, don't worry, this mud jar can't be opened casually, it needs to be kept well to preserve the medicinal properties of the night hidden wall dew. Let's hurry up and get going. Su Yi said.
"Brother Su is right, let's pack up and set off quickly. Cao Jing said.
Cao Sheng had no choice but to retract his hand.
On the way back, everyone was in the canyon, so quiet that they couldn't even hear the birds chirping around. When the team reached the mouth of the canyon, Su Yi suddenly stopped. Cao Jing, who followed closely behind him, wondered, "What's wrong?"
"Brother Cao, don't you think we have some... Is it too smooth?" Su Yi frowned.
"It can't be too smooth, it makes you suspicious, right?" Cao Sheng said with a grin.
Cao Jun, who hadn't spoken for a long time, also said at this time: "I feel the same way. From Sheep's Head Mountain to here, although it is not a horse Pingchuan, it is not thrilling at all. It always feels... Something seems to be missing. ”
Cao Jing fell into deep thought, and Su Yi continued Cao Jun's words and said, "Yes, it's too quiet here. In fact, not long after entering the Little Dead Mountain, I had such doubts, but I just happened to find the Night Hidden Wall Dew, and I forgot about it when I was happy. Now that we think about it, it's been a long time since we've encountered a beast. ”
Cao Jing said: "If I remember correctly, before the four cliffs, we also encountered a herd of wild boars. It's not thrilling, but it's a lot of good luck. It stands to reason that the deeper you go, the easier it is to encounter fierce beasts. But now..."
"Ahead is the exit of the canyon, and that's the way back for us. If there's anything weird..."Su Yi took a deep breath and said, "Then it will definitely be around the exit." ”
"You mean there's an ambush?" Cao Jing exclaimed.
Su Yixiang said that when he fled back then, he saw too many ambushes in this terrain. However, he still held back, and just said: "Wait for the rabbit, it is an excellent location, Brother Cao, think about what enemies he has caused recently." ”
"Enemy..."Cao Jing said blankly, his mind searching for his memory.
When Cao Lingcheng heard the word "enemy", she was also anxious: "Brother Su Yi, eldest brother, he usually treats people well and is upright. This is known to the people of Beiyi, and there is absolutely no enemy. ”
Su Yi had no choice but to say, "Then I'll go out to explore the way first, and you will follow." Before everyone agreed, Su Yi walked out of the canyon first.
As soon as his figure appeared at the mouth of the canyon, he saw the bushes around him rustle, and countless figures jumped out of them. At this time, Cao Jing and others in the rear also caught up, and there were also figures approaching behind them, and they actually hid an ambush in the canyon. A group of people was surrounded and could not advance or retreat.
Those figures, according to a rough estimate, there are forty or fifty people at least, but they are not counting the people who are lurking in the shadows.
Su Yi felt a big headache, and when he saw the other party's prepared posture, most of them were inseparable from the mystery of Xinyue Mountain and Cao Mansion.
