Profound Pure Guard

Chapter 172: Into the mountains

"My lord, should you let the subordinate leader go in?" Wang Yiming couldn't help but suggest.

"No, I want to do this personally. You continue to watch them at Wanhekou to clean up the town, and you must not slack. Especially those who suddenly become ill must be handled in accordance with the procedures we have discussed, but nothing goes wrong. Understand? "

   "Understand."

   Shen Hao was puzzled. He was curious about the secret behind the encrypted map hidden by the Xu family, so he naturally wanted to see it with his own eyes. Moreover, going to the front line to investigate and command is two different things. Since you have done it, you must be perfect.

   Shen Hao personally led the team, with two local Xuan Qingwei guides, fifty soldiers from Fengri City Heiqi Camp, fifty thousand guards and two healers.

   I got off the official road, and it took an hour to see the beginning of the line on the map, a col. The obvious feature is the crescent shape of the col.

   It’s not far from Xiushan Village, and it’s more than twenty miles away from the village.

   "Remember to make a mark along the road so that you don't get lost." Although there is a guide and guarantees that "you can come out with your eyes closed", Shen Hao still confessed.

   The soldiers of the Black Flag Battalion in Fengri City hurriedly responded. Many of them have been in the army. Some of the methods of marching in the field are still good.

   For example, peeling off the bark and lettering is a mark.

   It's pretty stable along the way. Even if so many people enter the mountain, even the beasts in the mountain will not jump out. Instinct will let them avoid disaster.

   However, there is no road in the mountains. The vegetation is dense and the road must be opened, so the speed is very slow. Moreover, Shen Hao also divided the first, middle and back three teams for safety, with one team pressed down, one team forward, and one team centered for dispatch. This cautious approach naturally makes the progress slower.

   After two hours, the sky has begun to darken.

   "My lord, we should be here now." The guide pointed to a small section of a rubbed map and said to Shen Hao. This afternoon, I took less than one-third of the path on the map.

   "I have to speed up tomorrow, but I still need to pay attention to not relax. Go and rest."

   There is no need for Shen Hao to worry about the vigilance. He has a small tent of his own, and other people sleep in the open.

   The next day, I continued on the mountain road. The speed was a bit faster than yesterday. In the afternoon, I walked to the location of the node where the spies were confused by the map.

   "Going further is a place where the spies have not been before. There may be some traps. Everyone should be vigilant. If you find anything nearby, you will immediately warn you."

Because Shen Hao judged that the basket of Guitou pears in Xu’s family was picked somewhere in front of this place, and Guitou pears were not growing in a good place. It is not clear what danger is hidden inside, and the source of the plague may also be In the front, I dare not care.

  Sure enough, after crossing the half-folded line on the map, the atmosphere on the mountain road became abnormal. The original lush dense forest began to appear strange-shaped ghost woods, and the rocks on the ground were mostly sharp as sharp as a knife, and even the soil became dark. When one stepped on it, it seemed to be sticky mud?

   "Hiss!"

   "Huh!"

   The sergeant who opened the way in front swung his knife and cut off a black snake that suddenly shot from the grass. The snake had a triangular head and an inch-long fang. A bite to it is estimated that it will peel off if it is not dead.

   "Blackpool Viper. There is such a snake here?"

   Seeing the corpse of the zhanglong snake handed back by the spies in front, a doctor was quite surprised when he saw it, because this black scorpion is also a kind of alchemy material, and its venom is a medicinal primer of a high-grade poison pill.

   "This kind of snakes are generally found in places of barbarians, and they are rarely seen on the territory of the old Jing Dynasty. I didn't expect that there would be growth here."

"It's weird here. The surrounding vibrant forest has now become overcast, and the ghost trees are overgrown, and the soil is dark as slurry. This kind of area shouldn't appear here. This, this is unreasonable... .."

   A monk who knows a little bit of geophysical means will be confused by the situation in front of him. Obviously it is a good landscape with good mountains and rivers, but suddenly the wind changes suddenly, changing rapidly from "good mountains and rivers" to "eerie and weird". There is no trace of excessive terrain in the middle, which is abrupt and weird. .

   Shen Hao once again raised his alert and told everyone that he had entered a high-risk area and that any disturbances should not be taken lightly.

   went on for another half an hour, and Shen Hao found that the yin here was getting heavier and heavier, and even the surrounding vegetation had an inexplicable sense of oppression, and he always felt that his eyes were staring at them.

   "Stop! The front and rear teams spread out for two miles to search, and if threatened, they will be wiped out!" Shen Hao decided not to go inside and look at the situation. The terrain changes here made him very depressed.

   No one felt that Shen Hao's caution was wrong. They all felt similar to Shen Hao's. Those leaning on the periphery of the team pulled out their weapons without even shouting.

   Soon, the strangeness of this place opened Shen Hao's eyes again.

   "Report, found three Guitou pears! All of them are dead!"

   "Report, found a strange tree that can move, attacking us!"

   "Report, found a strange beast..."

   Searching apart, but only two miles away, there are constant warnings coming back~www.wuxiahere.com~ But fortunately, the danger is not high, and a group of people can easily deal with it because of the number of people.

   Shen Hao went to see the three Guitou pears first. Five or six meters high, the branches and leaves are lush, and you can smell an attractive fruity scent when you get closer. Looking at the fist-sized golden fruits among the leaves, it is mouth-watering.

   "My lord, there are signs of climbing on this tree." A soldier came to report.

After hearing this, Shen Hao walked over and saw that, indeed, there were some obvious scratches on the trunk of a Guitou pear, which was not caused by the claws of a beast. It should have been caused by shoes stepping on, and some branches could also be broken when looking up Up.

   The Xu family picked the Guitou pears here?

   There is a map, indicating that the Xu family knows the weirdness here, so it shouldn’t be a stray entry but a purposeful entry. Is it for these ghosts?

   Before, Shen Hao asked the doctors who accompanied the team. Because Guitouli is rare in Jingxi, it is difficult to buy on the market and the price is very high. So will the Xu family come in for money?

   "Be careful and keep going."

   Shen Hao frowned and gave the order to continue exploring. And looking at the map in his hand, their location at this time was only two-thirds of the whole journey. At the current speed, it is impossible to reach the red dot on the map today.

   This is much slower than what Shen Hao had expected before, and it is hard to say whether there will be any danger when sleeping out tonight, after all, there seems to be two worlds inside and outside.
