The crowd began to get restless, and even Fang Qi's face turned slightly bitter when he heard Liu Changfeng say that he was still going forward.
"Sir, we have gained something today, do you think..." Fang Qi frowned and asked for instructions.
Liu Changfeng squinted his eyes and looked around, and said indifferently: "The demon-killing crossbow is not damaged. It doesn't matter if we encounter monsters again. Besides, there is a great demon master like you here, so there is nothing to be afraid of."
Fang Qi opened his mouth, but all the words behind him were stuck in his throat.
Are you worried? Or maybe you are scared?
Fang Qi couldn't explain clearly either.
Ever since he entered Wushan Mountain, he had been feeling a slight chill in his back, and there was always a faint warning lingering in his heart, which did not subside even after hunting a Cloud Hidden Beast.
Rather, this feeling intensified when Liu Changfeng suggested moving on.
Demon masters are different from ordinary people and are extremely sensitive to various senses. Many times, an alert or a premonition may be life-threatening.
It's just that this kind of psychological vacillation should never be mentioned in front of Liu Changfeng. The Great Demon Master still has his own face after all.
Seeing that Fang Qi didn't speak, Liu Changfeng firmed up his thoughts and turned to Long Wenmu: "Everyone, pack your things and move on... But I have to say it first. If anyone among you dares to escape, then
Don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
The words were meant for everyone to hear, but his eyes were always fixed on Long Wenmu.
Long Wenmu did not die in the mouth of the monster and did not escape. Liu Changfeng was disappointed at first, but after thinking about it, he was happy to see it.
The team was quickly reorganized, and the demon-killing crossbow was reloaded with crossbow arrows. After gathering everything, the team set off again.
After an experience of encountering a monster, no one dared to act carelessly this time.
Some people are responsible for transporting the demon-killing crossbow, and the rest are responsible for clearing the way.
Liu Changfeng was riding a horse on Long Wenmu's side.
"Boy, I'm curious, how did you survive?" After the incident with the monster beast, Liu Changfeng approached Long Wenmu again, "When the Cloud Hidden Beast attacked, many people died, but
How come a useless person like you survives?"
Liu Changfeng's words were aroused as soon as he heard them, with a vicious smell.
Long Wenmu smiled faintly and responded tepidly: "Young Master Liu has survived, so how can I die just because I'm dead?"
If we just talk about words, how could Long Wenmu's viciousness be defeated by his.
Liu Changfeng's face darkened, and he couldn't help showing anger: "You brat, what I hate most in my life is people who can't see their own weight. People who don't know what they are doing will never have any good results."
After that, he turned to Yelan: "A girl like this, even if she is a maid, she should choose a suitable master. Following some trash will take herself too lightly. If the girl is interested, I can make the decision in the future.
You can join my Liu family and be my personal maid, which is better than being buried in a small city."
Liu Changfeng's words were full of temptation.
The Liu family is quite powerful, and many people have no way of joining the Liu family.
Ye Lan huddled behind Long Wenmu, shaking his head frequently.
Liu Changfeng was not in a hurry. He had plenty of time before leaving Wushan: "Girl, you might as well think about it. If you are willing, just nod and no one can stop you."
After saying a few words, he pulled the horse's head away and headed in another direction.
It wasn't until Liu Changfeng left that sympathetic glances came from all around.
In fact, everyone can see that Liu Changfeng's purpose is not Yelan. If he really likes a girl, he can snatch her away directly. His purpose is just to embarrass Long Wenmu.
Who told this boy to offend the young master of the Liu family frequently?
"Master..." Yelan lowered his head and followed closely beside Long Wenmu.
"Liu Changfeng wants to recruit you into the Liu family."
The girl's head immediately shook like a rattle: "Master... I won't go."
"I think so." Long Wenmu smiled slightly, "It's a lie if he recruits you, but it's true if he embarrasses me. If you go with him, he can take the opportunity to humiliate me. But how can I, my young girl, be betrayed by him?"
That little bit of petty profit is alluring."
After hearing this, Yelan's pretty face turned slightly red. It turned out that the young master from home trusted her so much.
The girl felt warm in her heart.
"The third young master of the Liu family may have a great appearance, but he is actually small-minded. He is narrow-minded, unyielding in his hatred, and has sinister methods. He is a bitch." Long Wenmu grinned and commented, "Sure enough, there are so few such upright, generous and handsome people in this world.
He doesn’t have much left, and compared to me, he’s not even qualified to carry his shoes.”
Ye Lan sighed long and hard, thinking that he was generous and upright. Does this have anything to do with you, young master? Where did you get your confidence?
"But..." Long Wenmu boasted for a while and then became serious again, "It's definitely true that he wants my life. He just wants to humiliate me in public now. I'm afraid he won't be so polite after leaving Wushan.
"
Yelan swallowed softly, the only thing she could use as comfort was that Long Wenmu had not been alarmed so far.
She didn't know what Long Wenmu relied on, so she could only choose to believe in Long Wenmu.
The team moved towards the top of the mountain again, but the higher they went, the more rugged the road became.
It is extremely difficult for people to walk on this road, let alone drive a carriage up it.
After advancing for a while, the team had no choice but to stop.
"Sir, what should we do now?" Fang Qi looked at his subordinates who were all exhausted and could only ask Liu Changfeng for instructions.
Walking on such steep mountainous terrain would place too much burden on the team.
If possible, Fang Qi would of course hope to turn around and go back.
The benefits have already been obtained, so why continue to take risks?
Liu Changfeng looked around: "Rest where you are for now and send some people to explore the way ahead."
Fang Qi reluctantly gave up. Liu Changfeng hunted a Yunyin beast and tasted the sweetness. He was afraid that he would not leave until he finished exploring Wushan. As a subordinate, he could only let it go.
He answered softly "Yes", turned around and walked towards the crowd. He did not go to find anyone else, but walked towards Long Wenmu immediately.
Long Wenmu looked up and sneered in his heart.
"You, go ahead and explore the way." Fang Qi pointed at Long Wenmu.
Exploring the path is a dangerous task, especially after confirming that there are monsters in the foggy mountains.
Not only did Liu Changfeng have ill intentions towards Long Wenmu, Fang Qi also had a bad attitude towards him.
Long Wenmu shrugged indifferently, said nothing, and closed the door.
Along with Long Wenmu, two guards belonging to the Liu family were assigned.
People from the Liu family would not do such trivial matters, so they sent two people from the Liu family specifically for the purpose of monitoring him.
The large team was repairing in place, while the four of them, Long Wenmu, went all the way to higher ground.
The fog gets thicker as you get to the top of the mountain, and often you can't see clearly even just a few steps away.
"Master..." Yelan kept holding on to the hem of Long Wenmu's clothes, and the growing chill around her made her shiver.
"Are you afraid?" Long Wenmu asked.
Ye Lan thought for a while, shook his head, and then nodded slightly.
Afraid...it's better to say worried than afraid.
The Liu family's targeting of Long Wenmu is becoming more and more obvious now. Perhaps as Long Wenmu said, Liu Changfeng is dignified and decent, but underneath the surface he is a petty person.
Anyway, it is obviously impossible to expect Liu Changfeng to remove this hostility. Now Ye Lan can only count on Long Wenmu to come up with some countermeasures, otherwise he will probably be in countless troubles when he leaves Wushan.
This trip to the Wushan Mountains, with monsters and the Liu family on the side, really has a bad future.
"Master, what does a great demon look like?" Perhaps to relieve the tension in his heart, Ye Lan asked an irrelevant question.
But at the same time, she was also curious about it. After all, even the little demon was so huge and ferocious, so what would the monster above it look like?
"Big demon? The big demon is bigger and more ferocious than the little demon. If I have to say it, even the ten little demons put together can't compare to the big demon." Long Wenmu said.
"so smart……"
"If we encounter a big demon on this trip, it would be impossible for Fang Qi, the great demon master, to stop it. Generally, to deal with a big demon, several great demon masters need to join forces or an earth demon master can take action to deal with it.
"
The girl was silent for a long time: "Is the earth demon bigger?"
Long Wenmu touched his chin: "The size of the earth demon is not the size, the terror of the earth demon lies in its territory."
"What is the field?" Yelan heard this word for the first time.
Long Wenmu thought for a while: "It's like this foggy mountain. Only the foggy mountain range has thick fog. Maybe this fog is the domain of a certain earth demon. For the earth demon, the domain is equivalent to the territory.
.We are now in its realm, and as long as it is willing, it can even let us get lost in this fog forever."
The color on the girl's face faded a bit, and she couldn't help but tighten her grip on the hem of Long Wenmu's clothes.
"I'm just saying what if, what are you afraid of?" Long Wenmu comforted her.
"What about...the sky demon?" Ye Lan asked again.
When she asked it, she realized that it was a stupid question. No matter how knowledgeable her young master was, he probably wouldn't know about the ancient demon.
"The sky demon..." Long Wenmu's tone gradually deepened, he paused slightly, and said as if he didn't care, "The sky demon can transform into a human form..."
I don't know why, but Ye Lan always felt that there was a hint of hesitation in Long Wenmu's tone when he said this.
There were no disturbances along the way while exploring.
Unexpectedly, not even an ordinary beast was encountered, let alone a monster.
"If I look at it, this Wushan is probably just the Cloud Hidden Beast." One of the Liu family guards sighed.
After walking for so long, I haven't encountered anything, which makes me feel relieved but also bored at the same time.
Another guard also said casually: "I think it's almost done. If we go up further, we'll reach the top of the mountain. It's time to go back."
We are not far from the top of the mountain, and it is still smooth sailing up to here. There must be nothing left to explore in this foggy mountain.
Everyone stopped and had no intention of going any further.
"Hey, kid." Taking advantage of the pause, a guard shouted to Long Wenmu, "Since there are no monsters on Wushan Mountain, it's time to go back home. But I advise you not to have any evil intentions for me at this time.
, so as not to cause trouble for us two brothers."
Another person also laughed when he heard the words: "That's right, you dare to offend Mr. Liu. You should be mentally prepared when you go back this time. But Mr. Liu has always had a lot of adults, maybe he won't want you."
But for your own good, if you have anything valuable on you, you might as well give it to us brothers now, and we might put in a good word for you then."
The other person couldn't help laughing, and said sarcastically: "Yes, you're right. You look like a young man who is not too shabby in your outfit. He must have something valuable. As long as you take it out, the two of us will definitely do it when the time comes."
I can give you a nice word."
Ye Lan hid half of his body behind Long Wenmu, glaring at the two of them with a cold face.
The monsters didn't find them, so they started to take advantage of them. If the girl hadn't been so helpless, she would have wanted to teach them a lesson with her own hands.
In response to their cynicism, Long Wenmu didn't look at them at all. Instead, he frowned deeply: "There are no traces of wild beasts, not even the sound of birds, which is not a good sign."
Yelan was still frowning coldly, and was a little surprised when he heard this.
I hadn't noticed it before, but now that I say it, it seems to be true.
Listening carefully, I found that the surroundings were indeed very quiet, and the place where they were was unexpectedly quiet.
It's okay to say that there are no traces of wild beasts, but there are actually no cries of birds. If you listen carefully, you can't even hear the chirping of insects.
This inexplicable silence makes people feel as if something has erased the traces of all living things in this place.
The heartstrings immersed in anger suddenly tightened.
"You...what do you mean?" a guard yelled, "What do you know? If you are afraid, just say so and stop pretending."
It's not that I don't understand what Long Wenmu meant, it's just that once something is pointed out, that inexplicable feeling will never go away.
Yelan could sense it, so how could the two guards not feel it.
It's okay when you don't notice it, but once someone breaks through this layer of window paper, it feels like an invisible hand is strangling your throat, and you can't even breathe smoothly.
"Ahem, damn, my mood has been ruined by this kid. Forget it, I'm bored anyway, or let's go back." A guard cursed as he endured the spine-chilling silence around him.
He no longer bothered with Long Wenmu's matter, but just stared at Long Wenmu deeply, his tone obviously lacking in energy.
"Hmm... That's right. There's no point in messing around with this kid. If I don't go back, I'm afraid the adults will be anxious." Another guard quickly agreed.
Who wants to stay in a ghost place like this?
It was just a whim for Long Wenmu. At this moment, his attention was turned elsewhere and he would not continue to dwell on the topic just now.
Since there are no monsters, it’s better to leave Wushan as soon as possible. Sometimes, it’s better to be afraid of the worst than ten thousand. After all, the nights are long and the dreams are many...
Long Wenmu didn't object and followed the pace of the two people and started walking back.
Unlike when going up the mountain, the speed of going down the mountain is much faster, and there is a tacit intention to speed up.
However, I don't know whether it was due to the lack of sunshine for a long time or some other reason, but the cold air around me became a bit colder without realizing it.
"What the hell is this place like? Why is it so cold?" a guard shouted as if he was emboldened.
"Say a few words...don't delay." Another guard urged. His feet were flying, his eyes couldn't help but look around, and his hand was pressed on the handle of the knife.
I didn't notice it when I went up the mountain, but now when I came down the mountain, everyone felt it.
The road going down the mountain is obviously different from the way up the mountain. I don’t know when it started. There seems to be something crazy lingering in the dead silence around me, as if there is some indescribable thing dormant in it.
.
Guards are just ordinary people, not as sharp as a demon master, but they can still feel some things.
For example, exhaled breath can condense into white mist, or the dew on the grass and trees is disturbed by some force and condenses into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The wind stopped and the air was eerily silent.
The dense fog gradually thickened, becoming even denser than when it came.
No, something is indeed wrong.
There is no need to use eyes to see or use ears to hear. This feeling of being on the verge of death spreads from the bottom of my heart.
When did it appear? Speaking of which, this feeling only appeared quietly on the way down the mountain.
The four of them walked faster and faster and started running.
The two guards were breathing heavily, and large beads of sweat were flowing down the sides of their cheeks.
But no matter how fast they walked, this feeling always followed them, as if there was an invisible knife pressed against their vest.
When a group of four people descended to a certain place, Long Wenmu's pupils suddenly shrank and his steps suddenly stopped.
Ye Lan, who was still walking forward quickly, was grabbed by him.
"Master, how come..."
Before she could finish her voice, the dense fog beside her suddenly rolled violently, and then violently parted to both sides!
The sound of breaking wind followed...
A change has occurred!
All four of them had seen the Cloud Hidden Beast, but what came out of the fog at this time was a giant tail that was even thicker than that.
The giant tail swept across, and the two guards were knocked out by the giant tail before they could react.
No screams came out, only two bangs.
The two disintegrated bodies left stains of blood in the air, and their armor or bodies were smashed to pieces in front of the huge force.
The giant tail passed by, setting off a hurricane, and in front of the flying sand and rocks were Long Wenmu and Ye Lan.
Even though it swept away two people, the power of the giant tail remained unabated.
Ye Lan was stunned, everything happened in an instant, the scene in her pupils quickly enlarged, and she was unable to react to the sudden encounter.
But she could realize one thing in her heart. This giant tail, which had not yet been fully glimpsed, was much thicker than the tail of the previous Cloud Hidden Beast.
The scales of the previous Cloud Hidden Beast were just like discs, but the scales on this tail are like millstones.
The tails of the ten Cloud Hidden Beast little demons put together are not as strong as this one, which is clearly like a mountain hitting them head-on.
This is not the body of a little demon. No little demon can be so huge.
Above the foggy mountains, something more terrifying than the little demon lurks...
Pavement of death.
Yelan's eyes turned pale and helpless inexplicably, and despair emerged.
The wind blew harshly, and Long Wenmu's body rushed out like an arrow from a bow, grabbed her waist, and jumped into the air.
Holding a person in his arms, he jumped up to a height of more than ten feet in one step, and his giant tail flew close to them.
Ordinary people will not have such speed, and this is not the foot power that ordinary people should have.
