Chapter 45: The Hinterland of Scorched Wood Peak

"Kill yourself?"

"Suicide?"

"Why did he kill himself?"

"What happened to him?"

Dongfang Li, Raymond, and Xiao Chi, the three of them asked nervously.

"He wasn't hurt, he didn't commit suicide. ”

His voice was heavy, and his face was extremely strange, as if he had talked about some kind of taboo, and only after half a sound did he continue: "After the disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect found out about this, they notified the high-level of the Taixu Sword Sect, and the Taixu Sword Sect sent the high-level to investigate. ”

"The high-level searched all over Jiaomu Peak, as well as the surrounding mountains, and found injured people or animals, and then the high-level cut the disciple's finger, who knew that the blood actually fused with the blood on the knife, the disciple did kill himself, but the strange thing is that the disciple did not have any injuries and injuries, and the blood on the knife has not yet coagulated, and it is impossible to repair itself in such a broken time. ”

After the high-level learned of this conclusion, they immediately brought back all the disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect, and ordered that they were not allowed to step into Jiao Mu Peak for half a step. ”

"This is also the only mission where my sister was not injured. ”

Shen Changxi's eyes condensed, staring at Jiao Mu Feng, his brows tightened more and more, and he fell into deep thought: "What is in this Jiao Mu Peak? What happened back then? What is the meaning of the master arranging for me to pass through here." ”

"The master respects his old man, and he is really an old man, how can he love everything. ”

"Isn't it good to say it?"

Shen Changxi believes that Gu Xiaoqi's arrangement will definitely not simply scare Dongfang Li, Lei Meng, and Li Xiaochi, there must be other intentions in this.

Just like arranging for him to participate in the Xiaowu exam before, on the surface, it seemed to tell everyone that he was his true disciple of Gu Xiaoqi, and no one should provoke him, but then he found out that he actually had three purposes this time, and after that, he released words to force him to accept Bai Xiangliu's challenge, and then he understood that he was testing him to see if he had the ability to train.

Today, arranging for them to pass by Jiaomu Peak, how could it be simply to scare the three of them?

"Shizun's state of mind is like an abyss, it's terrible. ”

He always felt that this mission, in addition to cultivating helpers, also had other intentions.

It's just that he really can't figure out what the intention is.

"So weird?"

Lixiaoike's face was pale, and his lips trembled.

"It's scary. ”

Raymond gritted his teeth, feeling uncomfortable.

"This ...... This is the safest route?"

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are bloody storms and rains, but what about here? When encountering danger, no one even answers the call for help. ”

"Ancient plank road, new road?"

"Isn't it because this mountain is weird that a new path has been opened?"

"Lai is crazy, you lied to me!"

Dongfang Li gritted his teeth, not to mention being cheated by so many spirit stones, and being deceived into the most dangerous road.

After half a sound, Dongfang Li Cai said with an embarrassed face: "Young Master Changxi, why don't we go back and go back to another way." ”

"Yes, Young Master Changxi, even the disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect have such strange things happening here, like the three of us, we have no cultivation, and we don't know what kind of moth will happen?

Li Xiaochi grabbed the corner of his clothes and whispered persuasion.

"Go back!"

"My father said that there are thousands of roads in the world, and this one does not lead to that. ”

"It's good to go back!"

Raymond picked up the burden and waited expectantly for the long breath to command.

"People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and the world is full of mantis catching cicadas. It is difficult to draw the skin and bones of a tiger, and it is difficult to know the face but not the heart. There is nothing more vicious in this world than the human heart. ”

"Compared to people's hearts, this scorched wood peak's weirdness is nothing. ”

It turned out to be the route arranged by Gu Xiaoqi, it must have its own unique intentions, how could it be possible to return to the Dark Breath?

"Young Master Changxi, do you really want to take this ancient plank road and cross this Jiaomu Peak?"

Li Xiaochi asked with a crying voice.

"Young Master Changxi, this Jiaomu Peak is so weird, let's go back!"

Dongfang Li broke out in cold sweat in his palms, his face was pale, and he persuaded in a low voice.

"Not going back?"

"My father said that only by getting out of the poor mountains and bad waters can you get the truth. ”

"If you don't go back, okay!"

Raymond nodded.

There were thousands of roads before, this one didn't lead to that, and now it's out of the bad water of Qiongshan Mountain?

Dongfang Li: "......"

Leaving Koike: "......"

Stygian Breath rolled his eyes.

Although he likes to be slapped on the back, Raymond ...... Can you use the essence a little?

"This difficulty, is it, how can you go to the Southern Regions, how can you destroy them?"

Seeing that they were indeed frightened, he encouraged: "Don't be afraid, with me, just listen to my arrangement." ”

They have never experienced life and death, and it is normal for them to be frightened.

But as a leader, if this scares them out of the way, then what is the next step?

Everything has to have a process, step by step!

The Stygian Breath took the reins and walked towards Scorched Wood Peak.

"Hold on, keep up. ”

The three of them quickly rushed to the white horse, and leaned on the long breath, and their whole hearts hung up.

Half an hour later.

The four of them came to the edge of Scorched Wood Peak.

Sure enough, as soon as the four of them arrived at the edge, they all felt an eerie and terrifying aura, as if Jiao Mu Feng was staring at them, and there was a trace of expectation in their eyes, expecting them to enter Jiao Mu Peak.

Shen Changxi stopped, turned to look at the three people who were in a cold sweat for some time, and sighed slightly and said to himself: "You are the helpers selected by the master for me, you can't let his old man down!"

"Looks like it's going to have to be inspired!"

Shen Changxi's expression changed, serious and serious, righteous words, and said sonorously: "This is just a small Jiaomu Peak, as long as you pass through this peak, you will be one step closer to the outer disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect." ”

"For the sake of your own future, in order not to disgrace the Taixu Sword Sect, you must overcome yourself and overcome your inner fears. ”

"Remember, we are disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect, and the disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect are not cowardly!"

Seeing that the three of them eased up a little, he said gently: "Follow me, stay vigilant, and if you encounter anything, don't yell and run around, I will keep you safe." ”

"Young Master Changxi, it's good to have you!"

Lixiaochi's eyes were full of water and he sobbed.

"Young Master Changxi, we believe in you!"

Dongfang Li nodded fiercely, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "If you want to die, die, how can I, Dongfang Li, be a coward?"

"My father said that there must be my teacher in a threesome. ”

"Teachers are parents!"

"How can there be any reason why parents don't protect their children. ”

Raymond's heart relaxed a lot.

However, the other three had black lines all over their faces.

Can you stop saying goodbye to your father?

However, this also eased the atmosphere a lot, and even Koike was not as nervous as before.

"Let's go!"

Ming Changxi walked in the front, following closely from Xiao Chi, Raymond carried the burden and walked third, Dongfang Li was exploring the way, but he didn't dare to be in front, so he could only walk at the end and lead the horse.

"Click, click. ”

As soon as he took a step, Dongfang Li, away from Xiao Chi, Lei Meng and the three of them were almost so frightened that their faces turned white, and they squatted on the ground from Xiao Chi.

It's dirt, but stepping on it is like stepping on human bones.

If it weren't for the fact that they were not allowed to yell and run around, I am afraid that a few people would have cried in fright.

Shen Changxi glanced back at a few people and encouraged: "You are all the best, not cowards!"

The three of them nodded fiercely and followed closely.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Jiao Mufeng fell silent.

When they first walked in, a few people could still hear the birds chirping outside, walking and walking, there was no longer the sound of birds, and the surroundings were dark and dark, extremely quiet.

This silence with only the sound of footsteps left Dongfang Li who was walking behind more and more frightened, as if there was something hidden behind those dark trees, and he quietly stared at him from time to time.

Raymond was also covered in a cold sweat, always feeling cold behind him, and glanced back from time to time to make sure that it was Dongfang Li who continued to move forward.

Li Xiaochi clenched her hands, her clear eyes stared at the back of the long breath, and she didn't dare to tilt her head, she was afraid that if she tilted it, she would see another her, and she would kill herself.

These three people walked in the ghost gate, and with each step, it seemed that they were closer to death, but they had to keep up with the pace of the eternal breath.

I don't know how long I walked.

Suddenly, Stygian stood still and turned around.

"This ......"

"If this is a young master with a long breath, it must be a young master with a long breath!"

Li Xiaochi closed his eyes in fear, Raymond's eyes widened and he didn't dare to blink, Dongfang Li stiffened his head and tightened the reins.

"Scared?"

"Shizun really didn't pick the wrong person?"

Shen Changxi looked at the appearance of the three of them, and they were all a little suspicious.

He adjusted for a while before he said in the softest voice: "This should be the hinterland of the Scorched Wood Forest, so I will set up camp here tonight, cultivate my spirit, and set off tomorrow." ”

"It's Young Master Changxi!"

Li Xiaochi opened his eyes, patting his chest and gasping.

"Young Master Changxi, it's so weird here, let's leave quickly!"

Dongfang Li said nervously.

"It's getting late, I can't go any more. ”

With a serious face, he approached Raymond, took off his bag, and set up his tent.

The three of them looked dazed, their eyes fixed on the Stygian Breath, as if in the blink of an eye, the Immortal Breath disappeared, until the Immortal Breath set up their tent and turned back again, they relaxed a little.

"Why are you looking at me? Aren't you tired? Rest early!"

Shen Changxi looked at the stunned three people, shook his head, and then got into the tent, and then showed his head and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

With a tear, he closed the tent.

"He's there?"

"But not now?"

"What should I do?"

As soon as they entered the tent, the three of them felt the light disappear in front of them, and they melted into the endless darkness, as if something was grinning around them.

Three of you, you look at me, I look at you, with a look of fear on my face.

After a while, Dongfang Li woke up suddenly, and hurriedly said, "Raymond, hurry, hurry up and set up a tent." ”

"Where's the tent?"

Raymond looked around and said nervously.

"Don't you have a tent? Didn't you ask Koike to buy it?"

Dongfang Li's eyes turned to Lixiaochi, who was holding the tent, and said urgently: "You didn't buy it?"

"Nope!"

"Young Master Changxi, only let me buy the Southern Regions Life Record and a few sets of clothes, but didn't let me buy a tent, I, I didn't buy it!"

Xiao Chi's eyes were red, and tears rolled down.

Finished

"Not even a tent. ”

"It's over, it's over this time!"

Dongfang Li took two deep breaths, looked at the poor Chuchu Li Xiaochi, he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Raymond, let's go, let's go over there." ”

"Why, Young Master Changxi is much safer here!"

Raymond is willing to leave at all, not to mention Raymond, Dongfang Li doesn't want to! But they are here, don't they have to stay outside tonight from Xiaochi?

"Didn't your father say that lonely men and widows, reaching out and not seeing their fingers at night, after that?"

Dongfang Li glanced at Raymond, grabbed him, and pulled him behind a tree not far away.
