After waiting for a long time the next day, Dalia from Stonewood Towers had not returned yet, so Bingzhixie decided to go to the east mountain to find her another residence. Ilyich hoped to go with him, but Bingzhixie did not refuse and went with him and Alice.
The three of them went to Dongshan together, and the others stayed in the airship. There was no need to worry as Lai Lei was taking care of them.
Alice is riding a snow-white Pegasus, flying in the sky with her sword held high. If she were wearing standard armor, she would really look like a female officer in the imperial army.
Bing Zhixie was wearing a sea blue spirit robe, which he took out from the bank a few days ago. He hadn't worn such brightly colored clothing for a long time. Although it had been a few years, it was a little small on him, but fortunately it was custom-made back then.
It's a bit bigger, and it's a magic robe itself, so it's not too uncomfortable to wear.
Ilyich changed into a pair of weapons. He didn't bring much clothes on the airship, and the armor became his regular clothes. The long sword and the kite shield must have gone to a strange mountain, and it was very effective to protect himself.
necessary.
The mountain is not too big, but it is not too small. After an hour of flying and running all the way into the mountain, the three of them walked along the mountain road. There were several Z-shaped back and forth roads that allowed them to jump up and down the mountain quickly.
Jumping up. Alice rode a horse and walked in front, standing at the fork in the road and looking around: "According to what the young lady said, take the second road on the left at the five forks. But there are six roads here, is this it? I hate it, why not?
Don’t put up a sign here.”
Ilyich caught up from below and pointed: "I think we should go to the far left."
"The far left?" Alice was a little confused.
"Just go to the left." Bing Zhixie took the lead and walked towards that direction into the woods.
Some places on this mountain are bare and desolate, but some places have denser trees. Along the way, I also encountered some more ferocious monsters, which were not very powerful. Pegasus showed its magic power for a moment,
The white clouds and thick fog surged up, scaring away those weird guys who wanted to disturb us.
Soon a few people came to a stone temple building. It was not well built, but it was not rough either. There was a statue of a god standing at the entrance of the temple, and there were many skeletons carved between the pillars.
"This is probably the temple where the local people were buried after Gao Tian was buried." When I asked for directions before, I heard the local villagers talk about the situation on the mountain, so I knew the function of this temple.
Alice looked at the path next to her: "Go over here and go around the back of the mountain to find the big sister's house."
"Let's go."
The path was long and long, making it difficult to fly quickly in the air. It was covered by trees and it was easy to miss the place if you flew fast. In the evening, they found a mountain stream only three to five meters wide beside the mountain path covered by vines.
Stepping on the rocks to go in, a short hole blocked by leaves soon appeared in front of them. The three of them almost ducked into it. The snow-white Pegasus couldn't get in, so they just asked it to play in the forest. It had not been in the woods for a long time.
Played in.
Entering the cave, the space became larger. After walking for more than a hundred meters, a brown earth and stone building like an ant nest appeared in front of the wide cave.
The reason I could tell this was a building before was because there were several doors and windows on it. Otherwise, I would have thought it was an ant nest. Ilyich held up his sword in its scabbard, and the gems inlaid on the hilt glowed.
There was a bright light. Alice looked at the master, nodded, stepped forward and pressed the button on the stone wood door on the bottom floor.
After waiting for several minutes and knocking on the door several times, but no one responded, Ilyich asked: "Is it such an unlucky thing that when we came, she went back by another route?"
After waiting for a while, no one opened the door. Alice looked around for a while and came back: "What should I do? Go back?"
"You're already here, why are you going back?" Ilyich raised his chin: "Why don't we go in and wait for her. I heard that some people die suddenly at home for no apparent reason. For example, if a poisonous snake enters the home and they fall asleep again, the result is
If I was bitten by a poisonous snake in my dream, oh, it's over."
Alice giggled: "Ilyich, how can you say that to others? But, what you said is not impossible..." She looked back at the cave house shaped like a landslide, and asked the master: "How about we
Go in and sleep. I'm also curious about who would live in a place like this."
"Be careful about the magic mechanism here." Bing Zhixie agreed.
Alice stepped forward excitedly, and was about to find out the magic mechanism that might be set up at the door, and then forcefully crack it. Suddenly, three consecutive sounds of magic stone guns sounded in the empty cave, and the projectiles hit Alice's feet.
, sparks of electricity erupted. I saw a woman holding a rattan rope and swinging from a high place, landing on the third-floor balcony of the earthen house. She had a sword at her waist and a blunderbuss in her right hand, pointing at the three people below: "Why are you trespassing on my territory?"
?Get out of here, don’t blame me for being rude!"
Alice backed away in fright and said to the fierce woman: "I'm sorry, we are here to find Miss Dalia. Are you Miss Dalia?"
Dalia looked at the three of them very alertly: "What do you want from me?"
Alice said: "We are here to ask about the map. The lady at the big wooden house said that you are very good at drawing maps, so we came to bother you and hope to get some help."
Dalia saw that they were all outsiders, dressed as travelers with some small luggage, and said: "I'm sorry, I'm not free, please go out. You are not welcome here."
Alice still wanted to plead, but was stopped: "Go! Leave quickly, or I will shoot you if you don't leave!" Dalia yelled repeatedly, and Alice muttered: "Why is this~!" She had no choice but to go out with her master.
Burrow.
Outside the cave, Alice was still unhappy: "Why is she like this? I didn't really knock on her door."
Ilyich said helplessly: "Some people have very weird tempers. That woman looks young, but she lives in a place like this. It's not unusual to have a weird temper."
"Then shall we go back?" Alice asked.
Bing Zhixie said: "It doesn't matter if the map is almost there. She may not have the map I want. Let's go and get back on the Fuxing account. If there's nothing else, we can set off in the evening or during the day tomorrow." He whistled, and after a while Bai Xuefei
The horse came over with something in its mouth.
"What is this?" Alice took the thing out of Pegasus' mouth: "It's a piece of rag with blood stains on it, as if it was torn from clothes."
"Maybe someone was injured here. The wild monsters that appear here are quite ferocious. The blood stains on it have dried." Ilyich took it, touched it, and smelled it: "Let's go."
After coming out of the mountains, it was time to have dinner again. Alice was out of breath and was about to head towards the wooden house for dinner. Suddenly she saw many people surrounding the Fuxing. She didn't know what she had discovered, so she hurried over.
