Volume 1: The Beginning of Yunxuan Chapter 6: Encounters

Long Wenmu tugged on the reins, and could feel that the carriage was even more difficult to control than before.

Beasts are far more sensitive to crises than ordinary humans, and the reason why they are not controlled must be that the horses have sensed something inexplicable.

"Be careful, stay with me no matter what happens. Long Wenmu lowered his voice and whispered in the ear of the night.

Nightshade nodded weakly.

However, it is also strange to say, Long Wenmu is unkempt and unruly in White Frost City, and almost everyone shouts and beats him when he walks on the street. But after coming to this place, his alertness and composure were more like a battle-hardened warrior, which Ye Yan had never felt in Long Wenmu before, and Long Wenmu gave her a feeling that was both familiar and strange.

The team was already not far from the Foggy Mountains, and it didn't take long for them to reach the place near the foot of the mountain.

From a distance, the Misty Mountains are shrouded in clouds, and this feeling is even worse as you get closer.

The thick fog that spread through the jungle gathered and did not disperse, and the layers of mist rolled with the wind, like some kind of living thing.

"Enter the mountain, everyone stay vigilant!" Fang Qi at the front of the team shouted, so that everyone in the team would know, and by the way, he didn't forget to warn, "I don't need to say much about the dangers in the mountains, if you want to survive, don't fall behind." ”

There is really no need for him to say this kind of thing, maybe other people will have different thoughts on the way here, but there is no way back when they come here. Since there are demon beasts lurking in this vicinity, it is definitely more dangerous to be alone. On the other hand, it is relatively safer to stay around the two demon masters.

On the carriage where Long Wenmu was, Ye Yan leaned on Long Wenmu tightly, his thin body was tense all the time, and he trembled faintly.

The dense forest is secluded, the forest is cold and biting, walking in the middle, all the things about demon beasts that I have heard about in the past can't help but come to my heart, adding a little horror to this place.

The pace of the march is not slow, and no one wants to stay in such a place for long.

When the team passes through a jungle, it is officially at the foot of the mountain.

At the same time, however, Nightshade felt as if a breeze was blowing in her face, or something silky, and the feeling of softness was fleeting.

His heart was slightly alert, and he wanted to ask Long Wenmu about it, but when he looked up, he found that Long Wenmu was also frowning, looking around, as if he also felt something.

"Why did it get cold?" asked Liu Changfeng, who was walking at the front of the line, frowning.

"When I entered the mountain, I didn't see the sun here all year round, and it was cold. Fang Qi said, and easily pulled the collar together.

As a demon master, even the cold climate may not affect them, but even Fang Qi, the great demon master, shuddered.

"Has Commander Fang hunted demon beasts before?" Probably to alleviate the feeling of depression, Liu Changfeng asked with a chuckle.

"Lord Hui, Fang has hunted a few times since he became a demon master. But that was when he was a little demon master, and he hasn't been promoted to a big demon master. ”

"The difference between the big demon master and the little demon master is a world of difference, I'm afraid that Commander Fang has long wanted to find a demon beast to practice. ”

"Haha, my lord said that he laughed, this kind of thing is a demon beast, if possible, Fang would rather encounter it less. Fang Qi said unabashedly.

The road up the mountain is not easy to walk, and the foggy mountain itself is a dangerous peak, and there are no people here, so the road can only be opened temporarily.

Liu Changfeng was not ambiguous, in addition to leaving some people to drive the carriage, he even found a team of people to open the way in front.

This kind of place where danger is hidden at all times, and the person who walks in front is naturally more dangerous, of course, there is no doubt that Long Wenmu was also chosen.

More than a dozen people who opened the way, Long Wenmu and Ye Qishen walked in the bushes one foot and one foot shallow.

Liu Changfeng also specially gave each of them a sickle to open up a road in front of them that could allow the carriage to pass.

The only use of the scythe is to open the way, and if it encounters a demon beast, this kind of thing is at most a burning stick.

Everyone knew it, but at Liu Changfeng's request, no one dared to resist.

"Young Master, what should we do?" Ye Yan was always by Long Wenmu's side, refusing to leave even a single step.

The girl shivered, and her hands were cold.

"What are you afraid of? You don't have a few catties of meat, and the monsters can't look down on you. Long Wenmu said heartlessly, "Look at that Liu family son, and that Fang Commander, how majestic people are, if the demon beasts want to pick their mouths, they are the kind of people who want to pick them, and it is not your turn to be you." ”

Ye Yan bit her lip and didn't speak, listening to Long Wenmu's broken thoughts, she sighed in her heart.

That's a demon master, and if you really encounter a demon beast, you won't be afraid, how can you compare with the two of you.

The group headed for the top of the mountain as they opened the way.

Long Wenmu mingled in the crowd, wielding the sickle in his hand at will, casually chopping weeds and branches. Suddenly, he saw a certain person not far in front of him, and immediately greeted him warmly: "Isn't this Brother Niu?"

The man in front of him, known as "Brother Niu", heard the sound, and the flesh shook violently, and the face with thick eyebrows and big eyes squeezed his facial features to the middle, and simply shook his head and walked forward.

"Eh, Brother Niu, what are you running, everyone is from White Frost City, old acquaintances, why are you so afraid of me?"

The person in front of him was stunned, and glared at Long Wenmu with a fierce look: "Acquaintance? Because I knew it was you, I didn't bother to get close to you, so I didn't have bad luck. ”

"Haha, Brother Niu has talked about it, I'm not as great as you say. God knows how Long Wenmu's face was so thick, and he just put a smile on his face, "I can't compare with Brother Niu, you are a character known as the 'cow butcher' in White Frost City, don't you have all the children's songs on the roadside, 'Rather meet the king of Yama, don't meet Niu Jialang', you are on our street, everyone knows it." ”

The face of the butcher surnamed Niu is about to be distorted, everyone is from White Frost City, and they don't have a good face if they know the roots.

"Less nonsense, what's the matter with me?"

"Brother Niu took good care of me in White Frost City, and I even went to your shop to buy meat. How did you offend the city lord and be assigned here by him? ”

"Do you want to care?" the cow butcher frowned, and the muscles in his chest jumped and jumped. There is a feeling that if you don't speculate for more than half a sentence, you will smoke him if you talk more.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's not a big deal. Long Wenmu grinned, and took out a jade bottle from his arms, which was the one he had given to the night before, "Come on, come on, Brother Niu and I are both difficult brothers, everyone is blessed and enjoys hardships together, I will give you a baby." ”

The cow butcher looked at him and pouted coldly, "Baby, you have a fart baby." Twenty copper coins of meat, you have always been willing to give only five copper, you kind of stingy person, if you have a treasure, are you willing to take it out? ”

"Free delivery. Long Wenmu's eyes narrowed, looking miserable, "I'm serious, don't lie." It's really a baby, rub a little on your body, to ensure that mosquitoes don't invade, monsters don't get close, when did the little brother lie to you. ”

The cow butcher hugged the two bucket-thick arms into his arms, tilted his head to the side, and ignored him except for snorting at Long Wenmu.

It's just that mosquitoes don't invade, and monsters don't get close?

If he wants to believe in Long Wenmu's words, unless the sun comes out in the west.

The cow butcher was unmoved, but Long Wenmu smiled flatteringly and said, "Brother Niu, you look so handsome and martial, you are just a little shy...... Come on, come on, little brother will help you. ”

As he spoke, he poured some powder into the palm of his hand.

"What are you doing?" the cow butcher was startled, and was about to scold, when he saw Long Wenmu stretching out his hand.

Cattle butchers slaughter livestock for a living on weekdays, and in terms of strength and reaction, they are superior to others. Ordinary people are in front of him, where can they take advantage of it.

However, his blocking hand was only halfway out, and he only felt a flower in front of him, and the left and right cheeks suddenly felt like they were being wiped off, and then a pungent smell rushed into his nose.

Long Wenmu made a move, but he didn't see it clearly at all. By the time he reacted, his face had already been wiped off.

He...... How can the action be so fast?

Long Wenmu had already put away the jade bottle, leaving only the cow butcher stupid in place for a long time.

Since then, the team has been climbing all the way up the mountain, and in the blink of an eye, half a day has passed.

Fortunately, Long Wenmu and others opened the road, built bridges in the river, and filled in the pits, which pushed ten carriages to the halfway point of the mountain.

"Rest!" Fang Qi ordered in the middle of the line.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the crowd that had worked hard for a long time was all staggering.

Long Wenmu gently pulled his collar and found a bluestone to sit down. The person in charge of opening the way worked harder than the others, and the other people who opened the way were all out of breath, only Long Wenmu didn't even sweat as if he was fine.

"Young master, drink water. Ye Yan took out a water bladder from his bag and handed it to Long Wenmu.

Long Wenmu took two sips casually and handed it back to her.

"Young Master, what's on that carriage?" Ye Yan stroked his sideburns and looked down.

It would be unwise to climb such a dangerous mountain and let the carriage come up at the same time, and it would be time-consuming and laborious.

"What else can it be, reluctant to throw away, it can only be a baby. Long Wenmu said with a smile.

Anyway, what he said was equivalent to saying it in vain, and Ye Yan could only roll his eyes.

At a great distance from them sat a group of people, among whom the cattle butcher was located.

Ever since he was wiped with inexplicable things by Long Wenmu, he always hid far away, for fear of getting involved with Long Wenmu again.

The time to rest passed quickly, and the time for a stick of incense passed in a blink of an eye.

Long Wenmu stood up from the bluestone, slowly moved his shoulders, and stretched his waist by the way.

He was turning his head to look around, and suddenly he seemed to feel something, and his expression changed slightly.

"Young Master, what's wrong?" Ye Yan kept looking at Long Wenmu, and the slight change in expression did not escape her eyes.

"Did you hear any sounds?" asked Long Wenmu in a deep voice.

The face that was still smiling just now was a little more serious.

"What's the sound, young master, don't scare me. Nightshade's face turned slightly pale.

"Listen carefully. Long Wenmu said contemplatively.

Nightshade was somewhat intimidated by his serious appearance, and quietly calmed down, catching in the faint sounds around him as much as possible.

It doesn't matter if you don't listen, when you hear it, you really hear some strange sounds.

The sound was almost inaudible, and it was hidden in the wind.

It's not one or two, it's a lot, it's weak...... and finely chopped...... It was some kind of scraping sound.

It's like ...... The snake crawled over the treetops, countless scales scraping the trunk......

Long Wenmu was suddenly startled, and from that weak appearance, his body suddenly tensed.

"Run......" he shouted at the crowd in the distance. Like a lion roaring.

Never before has it been so serious, so loud that it resounded through the forest.

That voice also frightened the people in the distance, and in the direction facing Long Wenmu, three people sat around and raised their heads to look.

"Who, what are you yelling about?" one of them asked leisurely, not understanding what Long Wenmu's loud shout meant.

However, it was this brief hesitation that the mutation protruded.

The mist behind the three men rolled like hideous creatures.

A large mouth of blood stretched out in the mist, and when he bit down, hot blood spurted out.
