Chen Xuan and others got up from the ground in disgrace, and saw a thick cloud of dust covering the mountain road, making it almost impossible to see the road ahead clearly with the naked eye.
Fortunately, Master Chen Xuan is a hunter. He has many means that ordinary people do not have. He took out a pair of goggles from his backpack and put them on. The lenses emitted a ray of light, which was able to penetrate the dust and fog and see clearly the situation ahead.
Clearly.
"Ximen Lie, are you okay?"
Chen Xuan did not rush forward, but asked loudly.
There was a deathly silence, and Ximen Lie did not reply.
"Did something happen to him?"
Shangguan Wu said angrily that he and Ximen Lie were not on good terms and thought it would be best if he died.
"No, Ximen Lie is very agile, and he won't be able to survive a situation twice as dangerous as this.
Besides, I saw him duck out."
Although Pang Na spoke very relaxedly, her brows were slightly knitted together, and she was obviously a little worried about the current situation.
"Why did the stone fall?"
Ouyang Qi was much smarter. He raised his head and squinted at the cliff, as if he wanted to see the cause of the falling rock.
"It rained a few days ago, so it's normal for rocks to fall."
Chen Xuan tentatively walked forward. Although the path was damaged, it was not difficult for these people, and they could still pass through.
Everyone filed through the destroyed mountain road and passed through the dust. Standing on a intact section of the road, there was still no trace of Ximen Lie.
"Look."
The attentive Pang Na leaned over and picked up a piece of leather, "This is from Ximen Lie's leather armor."
"Strange, it seems to have a burning smell."
Chen Xuan put the piece of leather armor on his hand and looked at it carefully, then put it under his nose and smelled it, Chen Xuan said doubtfully.
"I feel something is wrong, as if someone is spying on us secretly."
One of the twins who had rarely spoken spoke. His cloak was blown by the mountain wind and spread out, revealing a suit of dark armor underneath.
Wearing such bulky armor, he could climb over mountains and ridges without falling behind, which shows how powerful he is.
Even the always arrogant Shangguan Wu would show a slightly apprehensive look when he saw him.
"I've been feeling the same since last night, but I didn't notice anything strange."
Chen Xuan is the only hunter in the team. When it comes to reconnaissance skills, no one can match him. Since he has not discovered it, there is nothing the others can do.
"It doesn't look like the stone fell off naturally."
The man in black armor said again, "I smell the scent of shadow..." "Shadow!"
Everyone was surprised. They knew that this man in black armor had some unclear relationship with the shadow force. If he really said this, it would probably be true.
The man in black armor wanted to say something else, but suddenly he frowned, and Chen Xuan was also alert.
"There are wild beasts coming, and there are many wild beasts!"
Hunters are the least afraid of wild beasts, but when Chen Xuan screamed, there was a hint of fear on his face.
The man in black armor snorted coldly and said to the man in silver armor beside him: "Chang Meng, let's go together."
The man in silver armor nodded slightly: "Chang Wei, I will fight side by side with you."
Everyone else got out of the way. On the narrow mountain road, Chang Wei, a man in black armor, and Chang Meng, a man in silver armor, stood side by side, blocking the road completely.
In such a dangerous place, it is true that one man can stop thousands of people from breaking through. Even if the numerical gap between the two sides is very large, only one or two powerful characters can stop thousands of troops.
The others were not idle either. Chen Xuan took out his musket, and Ouyang Qi and Pang Na were also ready to attack and rescue their companions at any time.
The only person who was of no use was Shangguan Wu. He stood at the back of the team helplessly carrying his weapon and mace, muttering to himself: "These brothers really like to be in the limelight."
"Boom, boom, boom", a sound of footsteps came, making everyone's hearts feel heavy.
The footsteps got closer and closer, and finally, the beasts appeared.
"It's a wild beast! So many wild beasts!"
When she finally saw the beast appear, Pang Na couldn't help but exclaimed.
The narrow mountain road is crowded with owl beasts. This kind of wild beast covered with colorful feathers is quite ferocious and looks like a big bird, but it cannot fly.
They are fierce and aggressive and often attack humans.
During the time that Chen Xuan's team was in the mountains, they had many encounters with the owl beasts and won easily.
The situation in front of them seemed a bit dangerous, as a steady stream of owl beasts appeared, rushing towards the twin brothers like a tide.
Although everyone in the team knew the strength of the twins, they still couldn't help but think: If they can't hold on, we might be buried here! Just when Chen Xuan's team was in danger, the efficacy of the invisible pill
Disappeared, and Li Xuan's figure quietly appeared on the cliff above their heads.
His eyes were fixed on the twin brothers, especially the man in black armor.
"I really didn't expect that I could see a Confucian scholar here..." Li Xuan muttered to himself with a bad look on his face.
The movements of the owl beasts are very clumsy and they walk unsteadily. The appearance of these beasts is somewhat similar to penguins, but the difference is that they have sharp beaks and colorful feathers.
Although they look cute, they are actually quite ferocious, especially when they appear in groups, they are even more terrifying.
In the jungle, a lone tiger will retreat when seeing a group of owl beasts. I am afraid that only a pack of wolves can compete with them.
The densely packed owl beasts crowded the mountain road. They made "wuwu" sounds from their mouths and rushed towards the twin brothers Chang Wei and Chang Meng.
The waving claws and sharp beak are like sharp knives, seemingly able to cut the twins into pieces in an instant.
The twins who had been silent suddenly made a move. They almost stretched out their right hands together and lifted up the cloaks on their bodies.
The cloak made a crisp sound, and was suddenly blown up by the mountain wind, disappearing between the mountains like two huge bats.
Without the protection of their cloaks, the twin brothers were completely exposed to the afterglow of dusk.
Chang Wei, a man in black armor, wore a pitch-black armor. The armor seemed to be smeared with a layer of butter and emitted a dark light. It looked like night, but it was a bit more strange.
Chang Meng, the man in silver armor, is wearing shiny armor. The styles of their armors are exactly the same, the only difference is the color.
The silver armor looked dignified and dazzling. The afterglow shone on the armor, creating a halo, which reminded people of the great Confucian's awe-inspiring righteousness.
"Tai Chi Confucian scholars, these brothers are really amazing."
Li Xuan stood on the cliff. After seeing this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
