Wan Lin saw Xie Chao running back, reached out to take the telescope and flashlight from Xiaoya's hand, then glanced at the mobile phone in her hand and asked in a low voice: "Is there no signal yet?" Xiaoya glanced down.
He shook his head with a wry smile and replied in a low voice: "No, let's go to the mountainside with our mobile phones to check again. We haven't contacted Li Tou for several days in a row. I'm afraid he should be anxious again."
The three of them immediately walked out of the courtyard and walked towards a dense forest on the side of the cliff. After a while, Xie Chao also caught up from the forest behind with a large backpack on his back.
Xie Chao walked to Xiao Jiu in front and led Wan Lin and the two of them side by side. As he walked, he turned to Wan Lin and Xiaoya behind him and said, "Follow our footsteps. This secret road is close to the top of the mountain. There are many obstacles around it."
You may be injured if you don’t pay attention to the mechanism, so be careful.”
Wan Lin quickly agreed, stretched out his hand and took Xiaoya's finger and touched his feet. Xiaoya nodded, knowing that Wan Lin was reminding her to pay attention to the dim light spots under her feet, she quickly lowered her head and looked at the feet of Xie Chao and the two in front.
.
Small, indistinct light spots flickered on the dim forest floor. The light spots were mixed with the light coming from the branches and leaves of the tree crowns, and scattered on the forest floor covered with fallen leaves. It was difficult to detect without careful observation.
Xiaoya looked at the light spots in front of her and thought to herself: "Is these extremely dim marks formed naturally, or were they arranged by the disciples of Lingxiu Sect themselves later? It is really difficult for outsiders to get close to this secret place if they don't know these paths into the mountain."
.
She was thinking in her mind, and saw that the two of them had opened a distance of tens of meters from Xie Chao and the others in front, and their figures were already blurry in the dark forest. She quickly pulled Wan Lin to speed up and walked toward Xie Chao and the others in front.
People chased him.
At this time, Xie Chao and the two people in front were walking very fast, as if they didn't even look at the secret signs under their feet in the dark forest. Wan Lin and the two people knew that they often went up and down the mountain through secret paths in the forest, and they were already familiar with the terrain in the forest.
Even if you close your eyes, you will not deviate from the secret path or lose your direction.
The light in the dense forest is getting darker and darker. Thick larch trees drill straight up. The dense tree crowns have blocked the bright sunlight in the sky. Only some dim light shines from the gaps between the tree crowns.
Entering the forest, strips of light yellow light and shadow were illuminated among the dense tree trunks.
On the way, Xiaojiu muttered to himself, the young master, about the Wan family's gift of five pills of detoxification holy pills to the old master.
After hearing this, Xie Chao gratefully turned his head and glanced at the two people behind him. When his eyes glanced at Xiaoya's pretty face, a bright light flashed in his eyes, but then he saw Wan Lin's hand holding the girl's little hand tightly.
He seemed shocked for a moment, a look of disappointment immediately flashed across his face, and he quickly turned back and walked forward silently.
Wan Lin held Xiaoya's soft little hand and followed Xie Chao. At this time, seeing the disappointed look on Xie Chao's face, he squeezed Xiaoya's hand hard, and a look of pride appeared on his face.
Xiaoya turned her head and glanced at him, then leaned gently towards Wan Lin, her eyes filled with happiness. They both understood that the old boss had proposed marriage several times, and he must have taken a fancy to Xiaoya's outstanding skills.
She has a beautiful face, so she wants to propose marriage to this smart young master.
At this time, Xiaojiu in front had already told Xie Chao everything that happened in the wooden house. Xie Chao had a disappointed look on his face, obviously knowing that Xiaoya was not Wan Lin's biological sister, but
They were a pair of lovers who loved each other, but he was completely hopeless.
When several people walked out of the cold dense forest, the sun had already risen above their heads, and the mountains and fields were bathed in warm sunlight. Xiaoya took a few breaths of fresh air comfortably, and then exhaled in a long breath.
A few people walked in the dense forest for several hours. The forest was cold and humid, and the air was still filled with a faint smell of rotten leaves. Now that they walked out of the dense forest and breathed in the fresh mountain air, and they were filled with lakes and mountains, this made Xiaoya
There was indeed a comfortable feeling.
While taking a deep breath, she turned her head and looked around. At the foot of the mountain on the side, there was a blue lake, like a huge blue gem, lying quietly among the emerald green mountains, on the water
Not a ripple is visible, just like a huge light blue mirror, reflecting the surrounding mountains and green bamboos.
Xiaoya looked at Wan Lin beside her in shock, and saw a look of surprise in his eyes. The scene in front of them was completely different from the lake scene they saw when they came yesterday.
Neither of them understood why the mysterious long sword they saw on the lake when they came yesterday suddenly disappeared.
Xiaoya quickly looked around, and then realized that when they came yesterday, they saw the lake from the other side of the hillside, and now they were standing on the other side of the mountain. The angle was different, so the scenery reflected in the lake was completely different.
At this time, Wan Lin also laughed. Apparently, he also discovered that the angle of this hillside was different from the angle when he saw the lake yesterday, so he could no longer see the giant sword and the goshawk reflected in the lake.
The two looked at each other and walked down the hillside with a smile. At this time, Xie Chao and Xiaojiu had already reached a large raised rock on the hillside. Xiaojiu turned around and greeted them: "Brother, sister, hurry up."
Come up, our young master is here with food."
Wan Lin and Xiaoya hurriedly walked up the rocks in front of them. It was already noon. When they heard the word "eat", they really felt a little hungry.
The two climbed up the huge rock and saw Xiaojiu already lying in a recessed place on the rock, lighting a bonfire with his head down. It turned out that when Xiaojiu and Xie Chao came up, they had already picked up some fallen food from the surroundings.
There were dead pine branches on the ground. These oily pine branches burned very well. In the blink of an eye, Xiaojiu had set up a pair of blazing bonfires.
Xie Chao smiled and asked the two of them to sit down. He took off his backpack from his back and placed it on the rock. He reached into his backpack and took out several bags made of animal skins, and then took out four thick bamboo tubes.
Wan Lin and Xiaoya looked at what Xie Chao took out in surprise. They wondered what kind of delicious food he brought. Xiaojiu, who had just raised the fire, turned around and took the four bamboo tubes from Xie Chao's hand, and then stood up carefully.
Next to the campfire, several animal skin bags were opened. It turned out that there were pieces of dried meat of different colors inside, and a smell of meat was coming out of the bags.
Xie Chao picked up one of the bags of dried meat, held it in front of Wan Lin and Xiaoya and said, "I wonder if you are used to it? This is the dried meat we make from different prey. You can try it."
Wan Lin and Xiaoya laughed. They often eat this kind of dried animal meat and naturally like it very much. This is also the food they often carry when going out.
