Chapter 2: Shock

Although it is a cliff, the fog covers the cliff and the cliff is bottomless. But according to the map, the bottom of the cliff is clearly the entrance. The three of them still asked Xiong Lin to take them to the cliff, looking at the fog under the cliff, not seeing the depths, one by one staring and thinking, and their faces hesitated.

"How deep is the bottom of this cliff? Lao Tzu, I am not bad, and it is no problem to jump off a cliff of one or twenty feet. But I can't see the bottom of this, how can I go down?" The Blood Knife probe looked at the fog under the cliff, and immediately frowned and said, "Old Dao, you are not mistaken, is the entrance really under this cliff?"

"Now the only way to do this is to try it with a rope. Lao Dao ignored the words of the blood knife, stroked his beard and said, while looking up and looking around, "Look at this lofty mountain, there should be a lot of vines and the like......

"Blood Knife, you go and chop some vines and come back, remember to cut more, this cliff may not be how deep!" Lao Dao casually ordered.

"Why do you want Lao Tzu to cut vines!" the blood knife immediately refuted.

"Your knife is so sharp, isn't it a waste if you don't need it? Or, are you going to let the scholar go?" said Lao Dao with a smile.

"Scholar ......" Blood Knife seemed to be a little jealous of the middle-aged man dressed as a scholar on the side, muttered half a sentence, and refuted, "Why don't you go, and why doesn't this kid go!" said and pointed to Xiong Lin.

"I still have to study the research path, and this little friend still needs to be our guide!" Lao Dao replied with a smile.

"It's all on the territory, what kind of guide do you want......" said the blood knife as if he remembered something, glanced at the old way, didn't say anything and turned away directly.

Xiong Lin looked at everything, his face did not change, but he was even more vigilant in his heart, looking at this situation, these three people are not good people, I am afraid they have no intention of letting him go.

Thinking of this, Xiong Lin stepped forward and said to the old man:

"Dao Chief, look at the place you are looking for, I also brought it, do you want to settle the money first, let me go back first?"

Lao Dao looked at Xiong Lin with a smile, and didn't speak, just looked at him. After a while, Xiong Lin couldn't stand it a little, and couldn't help but say:

"Otherwise, I don't want this travel fee, and the dead tiger can be considered as a gift to you?

With that, Xiong Lin turned around and was about to leave.

"Alas...... Little friends. Lao Dao took a light turn and stopped in front of Xiong Lin.

"Presumably Xiaoyou also saw that the three of us came here to hunt for treasure this time, and the treasure is in the ghost forest under this cliff. ”

"Before the treasure is revealed, even if I let you leave, they will not let you go. This time, it is also a credit for you to lead the way, why don't you go with us to raise the treasure, and then I will be the master and I will definitely share your share!"

Lao Dao smiled and said with a smile, coercing and seducing.

"But...... That's a ghost forest!Those who enter will die!" Xiong Lin said anxiously.

"That's the unknown path, we have the path map in our hands, and we can keep it safe!" Lao Dao shook his head and said, "Or, I'll let the Blood Knife talk to you?"

When Xiong Lin heard this, he stopped talking, and he had no intention of leaving.

To be honest, the highest cultivation of these three people is only comparable to him, and they are only at the peak of the day after tomorrow. And with his invulnerable Dacheng Golden Bell Jar, he is really not afraid of fighting. What's more, the three of them can see that their faces and hearts are not compatible, a treasure map has been torn into three points, and when they really get to the place where the treasure is hidden, the three of them are afraid that they will fight first. I can't say, in the end, he can still have a fisherman to make a profit.

Half an hour later, the blood knife came back with a large bundle of vines on his back, and several people repaired it a little and formed a long rope, rarely fifty zhang. Tie a stone bar to one end and throw it off a cliff.

"Knock ......" The sound of the stone bar falling to the ground came, and everyone looked at the vines, and the cliff was more than 30 zhang deep.

Of course, it was the bear forest head who led the way, and the first one climbed down the cliff along the vines.

"Oh......" Xiong Lin landed safely, carefully scanning the surroundings, the bottom of the cliff was full of mist, and with his eyesight, he could only vaguely see the distance of less than five meters around him.

It's a sandy and rocky area, with the occasional weed, and there is no danger in sight.

"No problem, you can come down!" Xiong Lin shouted with his head up.

The three people above got a reply, and they all went down the vine one by one. After the three of them went down to the bottom of the cliff safely, Lao Dao turned his eyes to look in all directions, nodded and said:

"Yes, this is it, located due north, for the place of performance, the place of difficulty! Next, go down as shown in the picture, there should be no danger!"

The four of them were back on the road, and it was still Xiong Lin who took the lead. The path behind the map was memorized by several people. Xiong Lin silently counted the number of steps in his heart and calculated the distance.

"Go ten zhang ahead, turn left and go five zhang...... Turn right nine zhang and go back twelve zhang...... Thirty-six zhang ahead ......"

Step by step, walking in the forest, surrounded by fog, as you go further in, the fog becomes more and more thick. At the bottom of the cliff, he could still see the surrounding five meters clearly, but now, three meters away, Xiong Lin could not see it at all. Even, when Xiong Lin turned around, he could only see the blood knife following him, and a figure could be vaguely seen in the distance, but he couldn't tell whether it was the old Taoist or the middle-aged scholar.

"Stop what you're doing, keep walking!" the Blood Knife shouted angrily.

"There's no way ahead......" Xiong Lin said helplessly.

"What?" Blood Knife glared, caught up with Xiong Lin's side, and looked ahead.

I saw that there were countless thorns in front of me, spread out in one piece, extending left and right into the mist, I don't know how wide, and the front was also spread into the mist, I don't know how deep.

"What's going on?" At this time, a third person from the rear caught up, but it was the middle-aged scholar. Xiong Lin heard him speak for the first time, and his voice was a little hoarse. At this time, he suddenly found that the middle-aged scholar had an oblique scar from his jaw to the Adam's apple, and he didn't know when he was injured.

"No way! Old Niubi, did you miscalculate, we entered the wrong place!" Bloody Knife stretched out his knife and pointed ahead, and asked Lao Dao, who had caught up with him at the end.

"If it's wrong, do you think we'll still be able to get to this point safely?" asked the old man rhetorically, looking at the dense thorns in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly.

"This treasure map was left a hundred years ago, to say the least. For a hundred years, it is not surprising that there are thorns in this forest to block the way. It's just a little more troublesome. ”

"We must follow the path shown on the map, and if we deviate from it, we will be stuck in this misty forest, and we will surely die. Therefore, if you want to get around this thorn, you must not be able to do it......"

"If you leap with light skills, it is not easy to grasp the distance, or it is easy to deviate from the path and fall into the forest...... In this way, it seems that there is only one way to move forward while overcoming obstacles!"

As he spoke, he looked at the big knife in the blood knife's hand.

"What, you still want Lao Tzu to open the way?" said the blood knife with a glared eye.

"Or do you lend the knife to the little brother?" said the old man with a smile.

"Hmph, my knife will never be used by a second person!" The blood knife wiped the blade with his hand, his eyes flashed, and suddenly said, "But you have a sword on your back, and I have never seen you use it, why don't you borrow it and use it?"

Lao Dao looked at the blood knife and the long knife in his hand, frowned, and said:

"Okay, little brother, take the sword!" he said, throwing the sword on his back at Xiong Lin.

Xiong Lin took it casually, drew his sword, and saw that the cold light flickered and was extremely sharp.

"It's such a good sword, and I don't see your old cow's nose using it, it's a waste!" muttered Bloody Knife.

With a sharp blade in hand, Xiong Lin carefully counted the steps and distance while cutting away the thorns that blocked the way. The pace of progress slowed down for a moment.

Walking and stopping like this, I came across several thorny places on the way. Before you know it, the sun is setting, and the dense forest is already quite dark.

"Huh......" Xiong Lin swept away the thorns in front of him with a sword, looked up, and suddenly found that the ground in front of him suddenly opened up, and a clearing appeared.

The clearing was fenced with a small wooden house in the middle, which was quite dilapidated. In the open space in front of the wooden house, there was a skeleton sitting cross-legged on the ground, and a small black flag was planted on the ground in front of the skeleton.

"Is this the place where the treasure is hidden?" Xiong Lin was a little puzzled.

"Haha...... Found it!" The blood knife laughed out loud, and suddenly stepped forward and pushed Xiong Lin away, heading straight for the skeleton.

Running in front of the skeleton, the blood knife reached out and grabbed the small black flag planted on the ground, and was about to pull it up.

"Boom ......" but didn't want to, the fog in the air rolled, and in a blink of an eye, I saw a dark cloud pressed down, in which the thunder flashed, just when the blood knife pulled out the small black flag, a thunder light split down from the dark clouds and hit the blood knife directly.

"Ah......h

"This!" everything happened in an instant, Xiong Lin was dumbfounded, and he didn't react to what was going on for a while. I only know that the treasure to be found this time may not be simple.

"Hey...... Insatiable, deserving to be chopped to death!" A hoarse voice sounded, and the middle-aged scholar had already arrived, ignoring Xiong Lin and stepping forward.

I saw that the middle-aged scholar also walked up to the skeleton, staring at the skeleton, his shoulders trembling, and I didn't know if he was excited.

"Alas......" sighed on the side, but the old way also arrived, and at this time he also looked at the skeleton sitting cross-legged, his face was heavy, and he didn't know what to think again.

"Dao Chief, this?" Xiong Lin was a little confused.

"Hahaha......" Suddenly a hoarse laugh came, but I saw the middle-aged scholar in front of him looking up and laughing and turning around, but he was in tears, but his face was full of hideousness.

"Poof......" The scholar held a fan in his left hand and slashed it into the palm of his right hand, directly drawing a bloody mouth, and the blood flowed.

Immediately, the scholar grabbed the small black flag planted on the ground with his right hand, which was covered with blood. It was pulled up at once, and there were no dark clouds rolling in the air, and no thunder slashing down.

"You ......" the old man changed, and pointed to the middle-aged scholar, and said, "Your surname is Li!"

"Hey...... Yes, I am surnamed Li, the Li of the Li family who was destroyed by you!" The scholar's hoarse voice sounded, with endless resentment.
