“Is there anything to say about this hiking trail?”
Lu Jian turned on [True Vision] and looked over.
The forest is ordinary, but there seems to be something wrong with the roads. Pollution spreads on the masonry and flows into the surrounding humus ground...
This pollution is like flowing down from the top of the mountain, and we don't know what is at the end of the road.
"Although everyone has to show their own skills here, there are generally a few rules that are best followed."
He Chong said, he thought about it and then said it all.
"First of all, don't believe what anyone you meet on the mountaineering trail says. Any attempt to get you off the trail is dangerous."
"Secondly, the number of steps on the hiking trail is one thousand, no more, no less. If you reach the destination before it reaches one thousand, keep walking. If you still haven't reached your destination after reaching one thousand, stop and wait."
"Finally, don't look back."
Lu Tan silently remembered it.
"You've told me so much, aren't you afraid that I'll be the first to arrive?"
He asked again.
"...As long as someone like Dai Yuanyang doesn't become Xuanjun, everything else doesn't matter."
He Chong replied.
"Then you are so unwilling to expel him directly?"
Lu Tan asked again.
"He is one of the Nine Classes, one of the Star Reachers. According to the rules, we are not qualified to do this unless the Dai family's own people expel him."
Du Ming explained.
"He doesn't abide by the rules anymore, so there's no need for you to be so persistent. Besides, he might even be a stumbling block behind his back to harm you."
Lu Jian felt that according to modern people's thinking, at this time, you break the rules first, and it is reasonable for me to clean you up, so that the violator will not be allowed to stay.
"Do you think that Dai Yuanyang could have walked out of the Jiangcheng Theater last night if we were present here if he really wanted to?"
Du Ming asked back.
"Kill him, pretend it's an accident, and get rid of this guy. No one knows except us here. Do you think it's okay to do this?"
Lu Tan didn't answer.
According to the thinking of the Chosen One, it is reasonable and reasonable to do so.
"Indeed, if you really do this, outsiders won't know about it, but there are always some things that you should be clear about."
Du Ming also pointed upward.
Lu Tiao looked up and saw only a patch of green onions.
"There are gods three feet above your head. People are doing it, and God is watching. There is no escape."
He Chong added.
"People like us have unique skills. If we don't have a steelyard or a ruler in our hearts, we can easily go astray. You are still young, so we seniors can give you a few words of warning."
He pointed to the hiking trail again.
"You go first, and we will follow. Remember, don't look back."
Lu Tan glanced at the bottom of the mountain. There seemed to be a small village with curls of smoke. That was probably the location of the abandoned town. He looked at the direction of the river again. He couldn't see clearly here, and he didn't know if there was an amusement park.
Where.
He looked at Du Ming and He Chong again, then climbed up the stairs.
Without looking back, Lu Tan felt that it was much quieter behind him.
His [True Vision] looked forward, and the pollution became more intense.
There are 1,000 steps, and a normal walk would take more than 20 minutes, which is not a long time.
Lu Tiao mentally counted the steps and looked at the road ahead.
There was silence all around, which made people feel terrified.
Under normal circumstances, the mountain road is not quiet, with birds and insects chirping, but now in the lush green trees, there is no sound at all, it is quiet.
Lu Tiao soon discovered that even the sound of his footsteps was gone. He felt that he was not stepping on stone steps, but on something soft. The touch was like stepping on some kind of creature.
A decaying, limp corpse.
He lowered his head and saw that his feet were made of gray bricks, not soft mud or something even more disgusting and terrifying.
However, there seemed to be a dark shadow in the scene behind Lu Jian that was dimly reflected by the bricks.
It's like...a person!
Lu Tiao saw the unnatural shadow moving on the bricks and quickly disappeared from sight. He raised his head and looked forward. The road seemed to be getting longer.
The surroundings seemed to be foggy, and the air became thick and humid. The hot and humid air penetrated into the clothes and quickly soaked them. The wet fabrics stuck to the skin, which made it more and more uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Lu Tan felt a different kind of voice coming from behind him.
On this quiet mountain road, no sound can escape the ears.
The sound was like breathing, accompanied by light footsteps, little by little, little by little, approaching the landing.
call--
Lu Tiao could even feel the close breath passing through the space and blowing onto his back, bringing a chilling chill.
He stopped.
"Why did you stop?"
Behind him, a clear voice sounded, asking Lu Jian with a hint of ridicule.
"No need to look back, I have no intention of harming you."
The voice gradually moved from behind Lu Tan and came to his side.
Lu Tan took a look and saw that it was Tang Que who was wearing a dark cheongsam, the only woman among the Nine Legends.
"Mr. He told me not to trust anyone."
Lu Jian spoke bluntly.
"Haha, indeed, I have no intention of believing you either."
Compared to his cold appearance, Tang Que has a cheerful personality. In fact, in this era, such a straightforward personality is really rare among women.
"He Chong and Du Ming want you to come up first?"
Tang Que asked again. She and Lu Tan were moving forward side by side. Through the corner of his eye, he could catch a glimpse of her expression, which was very calm.
"right."
Lu Tan nodded, and at the same time, a few drops of muddy sweat dripped from his hands.
The sweat has been dripping from Lu Tian's body since just now, and he looks like he is sweating profusely.
In fact, these sweats are all stumbling blocks.
Lu Jian used [Melt] to drop part of himself onto the hiking trail.
Behind him, Lu Tan's face appeared on a drop of sweat, and he looked forward.
There was no sign of Tang Que at all next to Lu Tan!
Lu Tan seems to be moving forward side by side with the air.
He thought for a moment and turned back a drop of sweat.
The next moment, the sweat evaporated and disappeared.
After a while, this drop of sweat appeared at the foot of the mountain and quickly dried up under the sun.
"As long as you look back, you will be sent down the mountain?"
Lu Tan asked softly.
"This is the most ordinary."
Tang Que seemed to find Lu Tan interesting and explained.
"Actually, there is no final conclusion on what will happen after turning back. Some people just go back to the foot of the mountain and start all over again, while others disappear without a trace and never appear in the world again."
"Is it so dangerous?"
What Lu Jian meant was that putting such a dangerous project in the Xuanjun battle was a bit too much.
For example, in sports meets, events that can easily kill people are generally not held. It is purely internal friction.
"Don't worry about it. Xuanjun's position is not something ordinary people can take. Those who are not determined will be better off returning as soon as possible."
Tang Que was indifferent.
"Why does Miss Tang want to be Xuanjun?"
Lu Tan asked again.
He heard the woman next to him take a deep breath.
