With no one coming or going, the mountain road is slowly becoming deserted, and the suspension bridge is naturally unmaintained.
Moreover, it is difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive to build roads in the mountains. Once they are built, few people will go there, and even the General Affairs Department is reluctant to allocate funds here.
However, even if you don’t want to, you still have to allocate funds.
If the General Affairs Department had not sent people to maintain it, the roads in the mountains would have been covered with weeds long ago. How could there still be roads?
"Don't worry! It won't collapse!" Hutao patted his chest and walked onto the suspension bridge first.
Although it looks dangerous, it is still very strong.
"Fortunately, I'm brave, otherwise I wouldn't dare to walk on this bridge..." Jiang Bai muttered, walked onto the suspension bridge, and stepped on each wooden board accurately.
It's not that I'm afraid that the board will break, but that I'm afraid that I'll miss the mark and get one leg stuck in the gap that's as wide as my fist.
That Hutao had to laugh at him for a year.
"There are many more suspension bridges like this in the mountains, especially at Huaguanglin. They are basically all connected by suspension bridges. If you are timid, I won't bring you here..."
It was much easier for Hutao to walk on the suspension bridge. It was no different from walking on the ground. He only had to jump on the suspension bridge a few times to scare Jiang Bai.
Jiang Bai rolled his eyes, was he afraid?
He is simply worried about the quality of the project!
After crossing the suspension bridge and reaching the mountainside on the other side, the road immediately became much easier.
Perhaps because too many people came here to seek immortality in the past, these buildings have stairs leading up the mountain. Even though these wide stairs have been weathered by the years, they still play their role and provide convenience for pedestrians.
Jiang Bai saw many stone statues of toads placed in the mountains, and from time to time he could see some wooden talismans tied with red ropes hanging under trees or on cliffs. However, judging from the faded colors and characters, these
Everything is quite old.
"The top of this mountain is called Qingyunding. The test of heaven mentioned by Wu Cong is on top." Hu Tao pointed to the top of the mountain.
"Then Hall Master, should we climb to the top of the mountain and have a look?" Jiang Bai was eager to try. He really wanted to see what the trial would be like that day.
"Business matters, come back next time." Hutao rejected his proposal.
Climbing the mountain is tiring in the first place, and if he continues to delay like this, he doesn't know when his plan to return to his roots will be officially launched.
"Okay..." His expectations failed, but Jiang Bai was not in a hurry.
On the way here, he found several more teleportation anchor points. He can just teleport over there when the time comes.
There is plenty of time for him to explore slowly.
The two of them stepped on the stone steps of the mountain road and walked slowly towards the mountain.
I still have the strength to walk up these steps, but after walking too much, my legs will feel sore and weak. Even if they are in good health like Jiang Bai and Hu Tao, they still have to take a break after walking for a while.
Sitting on the stone steps to rest, Jiang Bai took a water bag and poured tons of water into his mouth.
While he was filling the water, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a beautiful purple flower growing on the towering cliff in front of him.
This plant grows in the crevices of the cliff, absorbing the bright soil in the crevices to survive, and faces the intrusion of the strong winds in the mountains all the time, but even so, it has grown gorgeous flowers.
Jiang Bai, who only had a mola in his pocket that could not buy anything, smelled the smell of money.
This kind of flower growing in the cliff must be very valuable!
"Master, wait for me, I'm going to pick a flower." He was gearing up to find a good place to climb up and pick the flower.
As a result, he turned a corner around the stone wall and saw a little girl who was carrying a medicine basket and was stuck by a big rock above her head. No matter how hard she climbed, she couldn't jump over but she kept trying to climb up.
This little girl was dressed quite strangely, with a strange-shaped hat, large and small talismans on her body, and a basket on her back containing some collected medicinal materials.
She tried tirelessly to climb up, but the big rock above her head stuck her firmly, and she would always stay in place no matter how she climbed.
Jiang Bai didn't know what was going on, so he had to call Hu Tao over.
"Master, there is a little girl here who seems to be stuck on the mountain."
"Little girl?" After hearing Jiang Bai's words, Hu Tao, who was sitting on the stone steps and resting, looked confused.
How could there be a little girl in such deep mountains?
There are monsters in the mountains!
After Mandrill's continuous cleaning, most of the dangerous monsters in Liyue have been eliminated, but monsters like Qiuqiu people, abyss mages, and dragon lizards are still very dangerous to ordinary people!
Let’s not talk about how adults can trust a little girl to come to the mountains. Secondly, this mountain road is so difficult to walk. It took them both a long time to get here. When did this little girl come?
With doubts in her mind, she walked over and recognized the little girl stuck on the cliff at a glance.
"Qiqi!"
She couldn't be more familiar with this little girl. Whenever a dark moment is about to come, this little girl must be the one she is looking for.
It's not right to say she's a little girl, she's actually a zombie that's been dead for a long time.
It's just that time stayed at the time of her death, so she kept the body shape of a little girl.
The zombie named Qiqi heard the call, woke up from the state of chaos, looked down and saw the face that she particularly hated.
"No...not good...death...have to run..."
She suddenly panicked and climbed up faster, but no matter how she climbed, the big rock blocking her head was like a mountain, firmly trapping her in place.
She is a zombie, a zombie whose soul remains in the body after an accidental death. Her appearance remains at the age she was when she died, and her body is cold and stiff.
Normally, zombies cannot move on their own and need orders to move freely. But she is not just a zombie. At the moment before she died, the immortal sealed a ray of immortal power into her body, and she became someone.
A fairy in a sense.
Therefore, as a zombie immortal, she is now in a state of giving orders to herself.
Her memory is very poor, and she will forget many things within three days, so she will write down the things that need to be recorded in a small notebook that she carries with her to strengthen her memory.
But the person in front of her was obviously beyond the scope of being forgotten by her.
Just seeing her reminds her of her fear of death.
She wanted to run, but the order was not lifted, and her body continued to climb up. Even because of fear, she climbed faster and faster, but the big stone stuck her firmly, leaving her no matter what.
No matter how hard you climb, you always stay where you are.
Panic, fear, nervousness, disgust, trepidation and other emotions swept through her, even making her shed tears as a zombie.
Jiang Bai raised his head and looked at the little girl in confusion as she kept crawling in place like a ghost beating a wall.
"Hall Master, what is going on?"
Hu Tao obviously also noticed something strange. She held her chin and thought about it for a while before she figured out the reason.
