Xiao Qingfeng said: "Since everyone's righteousness comes first, then I'm not welcome, now I'll start to assign their respective positions and tasks." Brother Wolf, you are familiar with the road, so you will take the giant python bead of the second brother, and open the way in front of Ah Lang; I and the heavenly remnant are in the middle, and from time to time we will launch our specially made arrows to contact and summon A turtle, and take care of the laughing Maitreya and the doll by the way; the dumb second brother is behind the back of the hall, and is responsible for leaving a secret mark on the road to facilitate a quick retreat; in addition, the meditation girl is a mobile person, where to need support. If you don't have any opinions, let's get started. ”

After he finished speaking, everyone responded with a bang. The lone wolf and the prodigal son immediately began to walk quickly down the hidden mountain path, and then one by one, the crowd disappeared in an instant into the dense weeds and bushes.

This hidden mountain road seems to be rarely walked by people in normal times, and if there is no lone wolf to lead the way, everyone can hardly even distinguish the shadow of the mountain road. Everywhere there are the same kind of sour jujube shrubs with sharp spikes of the elders, and some of the long-growing sorrels that outdoor people hate the most. This kind of grass can easily scratch all the exposed parts of a person's body, scraping out that long blood channel. Once you are scratched by this kind of grass, although it does not bleed much, the taste of hot and burning pain is really very uncomfortable. In addition, this pesky grass is very stubborn and extremely difficult to remove, and it clings to any shrub at will, growing wildly.

The lone wolf and the prodigal son, who opened the way in front, were accidentally scratched in several places after a while, and the lone wolf was better and did not squeak. There were a few bloody streaks on his hands and face, and then he was soaked in sweat, and the prodigal son of this "sour" taste began to curse and shout. Xiao Qingfeng took out his deerskin gloves and threw them to the prodigal son, who put on his gas mask again, and only then continued to slash all the way after he was fully armed. Because they were in a hurry, everyone behind them also stepped forward to help open the way, and everyone was advancing hard and quickly on this real sheep intestine path.

After walking the winding mountain road for almost an hour, everyone finally reached a relatively gentle mountain road. The weeds and bushes here are gradually decreasing, and most of the surrounding areas are tall trees. In this dense forest, everyone quickly advanced for more than half an hour, and it seemed that they had reached a deep canyon in front of them. Sure enough, the lone wolf said that the front was the legendary Devil's Valley.

In the process of marching for more than an hour and a half, Xiao Qingfeng and the others sent a total of nine contact arrows, and only when they first started to descend the mountain, they received a reply from a safe arrow from the Mengshan Turtle, and there was no response. Although Xiao Qingfeng has been affirming that Mengshan Turtle should be safe, but looking at the cliff with a drop of hundreds of meters, everyone still can't help but start to get anxious. When everyone heard the lone wolf say that there was Devil's Valley in front of them, they immediately quickened their pace and rushed to the valley mouth in one go.

When I arrived at the mouth of the valley, I saw a lush green in the deep devil's valley, and there was no end in sight. Although it is already late autumn and the vegetation in other places has begun to be barren, due to the claustrophobic environment of the mountains here, the vegetation inside is still as dense and vigorous as in summer. From a distance, there is a faint mist above the Devil's Valley, and it seems that the air humidity in it should be very high, or there should be a large natural water source or forest river in it.

Suddenly, the mute sniffed around Taniguchi with his nose a few times, and said with a solemn expression: "It's not good, this place seems to have a poisonous miasma!" Everyone quickly held their breath for a while, and slowly took out a gas mask from their backpack. After putting on the gas mask, the lone wolf said: "If you are dumb, it is not bad at all, this devil's valley is infested with poisonous miasma all year round. Our previous fellowship expeditions were all terminated when we arrived here, largely due to the strange miasma in it. In addition, it is said that the miasma is so strange that ordinary collection and laboratory tests cannot analyze its composition. ”

The doll said: "Didn't you say that tens of thousands of corpses were thrown down from the 10,000-person platform above in this Devil's Valley." It can't be the tens of thousands of corpses, the poisonous miasma left behind after the corpse transformation, right?"

The prodigal son said: "My baby girl, how is this possible, it has been almost two hundred years, and those corpses have long been scattered into mud and turned into fertilizer as the ancients wrote, hahaha......"

"Corpse flower!" the little Taoist priest's sudden scream startled everyone.

After the little Taoist priest screamed, he seemed to ponder for a moment, and then muttered in a deep voice, as if talking to himself: "No, there won't really be a large number of legendary 'corpse flowers' living in it." ”

When Xiao Maitreya heard the word "corpse flower", he couldn't help but tremble with fright, and asked timidly: "What is this 'corpse flower', can't it really be the weird and strange flower that blooms in the corpse?"

The little Taoist priest said: "Yes, it can be roughly understood in this way. When I was a child, I really heard about the 'corpse flower' from my ancestors. He said that the most poisonous flowers in the world are not the common oleanders, mandalas, aconitum, hook kisses, poinsettias, poppies, lantana, calla lilies, etc., but this kind of 'corpse flower' nourished by the corpse mountain and the sea of corpses. This 'corpse flower' is not only highly poisonous, but also almost impossible to distinguish and dodge. Because this 'corpse flower' does not have a specific natural entity, but after it is formed, it scatters and invades any surrounding flowers and plants, as long as those flowers and plants invaded by it will become its carrier. Then it blooms all year round with incomparably gorgeous flowers, and it is by virtue of this incomparably gorgeous flower that it releases its almost colorless and odorless poison. In addition, this poison does not immediately fall to the ground and die after smelling it, but remains dormant in the human body for a period of time. Then, depending on the individual's physical condition, the disease will develop in the future, and once it occurs, the person will have similar symptoms of rabies, and finally die. What's even more terrifying is that this sick patient will also frantically bite the people or animals around him, thus further infecting this terrible poison. ”

Xiao Qingfeng said: "What Tianzhu said is right, I also accidentally saw a similar record in an ancient book. This is precisely why after the wars and natural disasters of the past dynasties, there have been widespread plagues. It is said that a large number of corpses that were not buried in time at that time slowly nourished this highly poisonous 'corpse flower' after a long period of corpse transformation, thus leaving endless poison. It's just that so far, the existence of this highly poisonous 'corpse flower' has not been verified by modern science. Therefore, I just skimmed through it at the time, and did not read the journal carefully. I don't want to do it today, it's really possible to encounter this kind of legendary weird 'corpse flower'. ”

The dumb man said: "Could it be that the smell of poisonous miasma that I faintly smelled just now is the smell of this legendary 'corpse flower'." ”

The lone wolf said: "Listening to Tiancripple and Qingfeng say this, it's not impossible to have this possibility. According to the Heavenly Remnant, the tens of thousands of corpses that were piled up in this valley at once must be the so-called mountain of corpses and a sea of corpses. In addition, since it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to enter and exit this valley afterwards, it must have not been cleaned up. Even if I later heard that the government at that time had repaired two or three mass graves in front of the monk mountain, it was said that all the corpses after the war had been buried. I guess it was just a matter of business at the time, just imagine who would want to enter this Devil's Valley known as the forbidden place to move tens of thousands of corpses, not to mention that it was the height of summer. In addition, the valley is surrounded by high mountains, and the environment is extremely claustrophobic. Therefore, it is very likely that this will be the place where you call the 'corpse flower' is born. ”

Laughing Maitreya said: "Since there is this strange 'corpse flower' in it, I wonder if our gas mask is effective?"

The doll said: "There should be no problem with this, the gas masks we are wearing now are the most advanced products that Brother Wolf has obtained after a special application." Besides, we also have the second brother's anti-poison elixir giant python beads, which is the biggest nemesis of the poison of this kind of insects, snakes, flowers and plants. As the doll took the python beads from the lone wolf, they rolled them one by one on everyone's bodies, especially everyone's exposed skin.

At this moment, Jing Xin suddenly said, "Don't speak, everyone, I seem to have heard the sound of a turtle just now." ”

Everyone calmed down and listened carefully, but they didn't hear anything, only that the mountain breeze in the Devil's Valley was gradually rising. It stands to reason that there will be no mistake in listening quietly, Xiao Qingfeng let the lone wolf send out three contact arrows in a row, but there was still no response. Everyone guessed if the Mengshan turtle had a ringing arrow on its body, and it was used just now. So Xiao Qingfeng prepared a little, and let out a loud and distant howl into the valley, trying to use the whistling sound to get in touch with the Mengshan Turtle.
