Although Wang Long wanted to stay in this completely strange and interesting town for a while, he also understood the importance of the mission, so when Zhang Mingyi told the two of them to leave immediately, he had no choice but to reluctantly move on.
Then he realized how unreliable Zhang Mingyi's words were. What he thought was a short journey actually took half a month.
Along the way, he also gradually became familiar with Zhang Mingyi, and was helpless with his careless and unsociable temperament: on the one hand, he did not reject this kind of person, and even liked him a little - when you have only one person around you
It was impossible for Zhang Tailai and Jiang Xue to get excited; on the other hand, it was hard for him to imagine that such a person could be Zhang Tailai's brother, and that such a personality could actually join Long Yin.
?
"Why, did anyone say that people in Longyin must be cold, rigid and inhumane?" Zhang Mingyi seemed to have read through his mind again and said with a smile.
"I didn't say that..." Wang Long shook his head: "But at least you have to be more accurate. You said Sangyou Mountain is not too far away, but we have been walking for half a month and haven't seen any shadows yet."
Zhang Mingyi smiled: "Is half a month's journey considered far? You are really a child who has never seen the world! When you become... When you grow up and can go around by yourself, then you will know the world
It’s vast.”
Wang Long heard the hesitation in his words, but he didn't bother and just nodded.
"Well, it's not too far this time. The mountain in front is Sangyou Mountain. But this mountain is dangerous and stretches for hundreds of miles. Even if there is news that there may be monsters living here, it still needs to be
It is not easy to find out."
"What's more, there are only three of you and me, but we definitely don't have the ability to confront the entire snake demon clan head-on. It's better to be careful and act in secret."
Wang Long and Jiang Xue nodded, but quickened their pace and walked towards the mountain.
Zhang Mingyi's words are very accurate. The entire Sangyou Mountain is indeed vast and boundless. Once you enter the mountainous area, everything is gloomy. Unknown ancient trees stand in the sky. It seems that there have been no human traces for a long time.
Wang Long looked for a passerby and asked a few questions. The man waved his hand and said: "It is said that there are monsters in this mountain. They are very vicious, so no one dares to live within a hundred miles, and few people go up the mountain. Only a few
The courageous hunters who are not afraid of death occasionally get desperate and hunt some wild animals, but it is said that they often go there and never come back... Why are you asking about this?"
Zhang Mingyi smiled, thanked the old man, and said to Wang and Long: "It seems that there are monsters here, but I don't know if they are snake monsters, or if they are a place of settlement, or just scattered monsters. Let's go.
, let’s go into the mountains and have a look.”
The three of them entered the hinterland of the mountain, slowly going deeper and deeper, but they did not detect any traces of monsters. There were only some ordinary beasts and wild birds, but they did not pay attention to them.
It was stuffy and hot in the dense forest. Wang Long endured the boredom and searched carefully, hoping to find some clues.
Suddenly, Jiangxue let out a light cry, attracting the attention of the other two people.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Mingyi came over and looked at Jiangxue and asked with a slight frown.
"There is a corpse here." Jiangxue pushed aside the fallen leaves on the ground and revealed the half-exposed corpse. Suddenly a stench spread, and Wang Long couldn't help but cover his nose.
"It seems that he has been dead for a while. He should be a hunter who went up to the mountain to hunt. But since it has not completely decomposed, it won't be too long... There are no traces of being bitten by wild beasts, huh?" Zhang Mingyi suddenly discovered something.
, called out.
Wang Long hurriedly asked: "Why, did you find anything?"
Zhang Mingyi smiled and said: "No, he actually still has a lot of silver in his wallet. Why would he bring the silver when he is hunting? Really..." He smiled and put the silver into his pocket.
"...You also take things belonging to dead people?" Wang Long said in astonishment.
"Shh, there's something going on..." Before Zhang Mingyi could answer, Jiang Xue suddenly stopped the two of them.
Wang Long also felt it immediately. There seemed to be a hissing sound in the fallen leaves, as if something was crawling through the fallen leaves and rustling.
Zhang Mingyi's expression immediately became serious, and his careless state immediately disappeared. He raised his palms horizontally in front of him to block Wang Long and Jiang Xue.
But the voice came from the direction of Wang Long Jiangxue.
Wang Long also looked awe-inspiring, slowly raising his dragon energy and placing it on the palms of his hands, ready to launch his offensive at any time; Jiang Xue stood aside and stood attentively.
However, after the vine branches and leaves were pushed aside, a little girl walked out from the depths of the bush. She looked to be no more than seven or eight years old. She was dressed in red and had big eyes. She blinked and looked at the people, seemingly very curious.
"Who are you?!" Zhang Mingyi hurriedly turned around and asked sternly at the little girl.
The little girl in red clothes seemed to be startled, but immediately asked: "Who are you! Why do you want to break into our territory!"
"Your territory? Who are you?" Wang Long also asked in confusion.
"That's right, our territory, the entire Sangyou Mountain is our place, you people are all bad people!" the little girl said with her hands on her hips.
Wang Long looked at Zhang Mingyi inquiringly. The latter shook his head and said that he couldn't tell the clues, so he could only say: "What about your family? Where are they and who are they?"
"Of course he is the one who wants to kill you!" Seven or eight voices suddenly came from all directions at the same time, and immediately several figures jumped out from the woods, surrounding Wang Long and the other three.
Zhang Mingyi smiled: "Oh, it is indeed a trap, this is terrible!"
Wang Long said helplessly: "Now you have discovered it. Didn't you say that the Zhang family's inherited sense can not only see through other people's thoughts, but also predict danger?"
"Maybe... this situation is not dangerous for me at all, but I didn't feel it!" Zhang Mingyi smiled, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"You are still laughing when you are about to die!" A man who looked like a leader in the siege said coldly.
"Dad!" The little girl shouted happily and threw herself into the man's arms.
The leader glared at the child in his arms and said in a deep voice: "Anyone who breaks into the forbidden area of the dense forest in the mountains will be killed!"
When the remaining people heard this shout, they immediately shouted and killed Wang Long and others.
When the matter reached this point, there was no need to say anything more. Wang Long let out a long sigh, and with a clang, a lightning sword suddenly lit up in his hand and struck at the incoming enemy.
Jiangxue also drew out her dark sword and broke into the crowd.
Zhang Mingyi seemed to be very leisurely, just watching the two people fighting, frowning or expressing approval from time to time, but he had no intention of stepping forward.
However, Wang Long could also feel that those who besieged him were only equivalent to the level of three or four dragon veins, and Jiangxue and the two of them were more than enough to deal with them.
But the leader looked more and more frightened. He originally thought that there were only three people coming, and they were two young teenagers. He didn't need to take action himself. I didn't expect that just the skills of these two teenagers.
That’s how awesome it is!
Although Zhang Mingyi seemed to be at ease, he was always staring at the leader. When he saw the other party frown and gently let go of the child in his arms, he became alert.
"drink!"
The leader punched out fiercely, hitting Jiangxue who was closer to him. As soon as the punch was released, it exploded like a scorching sun, shining brightly and illuminating the entire dark forest.
A cold light flashed in Zhang Mingyi's eyes, and his body disappeared in an instant like lightning. Suddenly, it passed through the air. With a bang, he grabbed the opponent's fist and drove his whole body to hit the big tree next to him.
With a loud bang, the entire ancient tree exploded completely as it stood, turning into sawdust powder that filled the sky.
The two looked at each other, fisted each other, and spoke at the same time.
