MTL - Twilight Boundary-Chapter 366 Gu array outside the valley
Chapter 366 Gu array outside the valley
The shouts passed into the forest, and the leaves were swaying and the withered grass was swaying. However, after listening for a long time, there was no response.
Hu Ma suddenly frowned, and the people around him also felt their hearts sinking slightly. They looked at the forest in front of them, and felt more and more strange movements, which made people feel uneasy.
They have just entered the mountain, and they haven't even met the people in the mine yet, let alone talk about grudges. But first they encountered the poisonous dog that was harmful to people. They shouted loudly at this moment, which also showed the etiquette of the world. , thinking that if the other party is nearby, he will definitely be able to hear it.
But now it is silent. What does the other party mean? Does he not want to talk?
The old abacus next to him took out a map and whispered: "Come to think of it, we should have arrived by now. I just calculated with Xiao Kanyu and we didn't go in the wrong direction, let alone hitting the wall."
“But unfortunately, I can’t see anything here…”
…”
Following his gaze, everyone looked forward, and indeed they saw that before the clearing, there was still a deep forest, without any trace of blood ore.
There was no one around, it felt like we were in a deserted wilderness.
“Perhaps we have indeed arrived.”
Hu Ma observed the surroundings, took a deep breath, and said: "There is an open space here, which doesn't look normal. It must be the traces left by logging and building houses in the mine."
“Perhaps, after passing the forest in front, we will reach where we want to go.”
…”
After hearing what he said, they all followed and observed it, vaguely feeling that what he said made sense, but looking further forward, the forest was no different from the ones they passed through. The vines were intertwined and the trees were towering, and they could not be seen at all. There is even the slightest trace of a road!
Huma was not in a hurry and said to Lao Baanpan: "Brother, we haven't offended anyone. We have followed the rules of the world and shouted, so what else we do will not be considered rude, right?"
Lao Abacus immediately nodded and said, "This is natural. Under the sun, no matter where you go, how can you not be allowed to be reasonable?"
"That's good."
Hu Ma took a deep breath, then took off Zhou Datong's monster serrated knife from the donkey's back, clamped it under his side, and walked forward slowly. Soon he reached the end of the open space and looked towards That large area of deep forest where monsters grew and vines intertwined like tentacles.
Then, he suddenly took a deep breath and swung the knife suddenly, with an explosion of energy and blood, vaguely masculine and evil-proofing power, and slashed hard at the gnarled roots at the foot of a towering tree in the forest.
“Bang…”
With this slash of the sword, everyone heard a shrill cry, which made their eardrums swell. In their eyes, the whole forest seemed to be shaking in panic, and strange shadows were running around.
When the noise passed, they looked blankly and saw that a road had suddenly appeared between the old forest where vines had just been entangled.
There are still traces of ruts on the road, which are obviously used by people.
“The Blood Food Mine is indeed right ahead…”
The old abacus couldn't help it, jumped off the donkey cart, took a look, and said with joy: "I just said that I learned this little Kanyu, and I bought it for two blood food pills. I must be really capable... "
“Did you really find the place?”
Zhou Datong and others also came over in a hurry, feeling happy, but Hu Ma stopped them in a hurry, picked up a pebble from the ground, and threw it forward.
Among the trees inside, there was a mist, and the branches and leaves were swaying. Looking from the front, they looked wide and green, with nothing unusual about them. But when they were hit by a stone, the leaves turned over, and they suddenly discovered that there was a colorful flower hidden behind the leaves. The poisonous insect fell to the ground.
Everyone was still a little excited just now, but a lot of it suddenly disappeared. They looked at each other, not daring to imagine what would happen if they went in.
“This forest is full of things…”
Hu Ma took a deep breath and said to Lao Abacus: "It seems that it's not some shaman blocking the way, but the people in the blood mine who don't welcome us..."
“First it’s the voodoo dogs, and then it’s the woods that are infested with voodoo insects…”
Lao Abacus looked at it, his face turned a little green, and he whispered: "The people in the mine here are not very polite, their attitude is very cruel..."
Hu Ma looked at the forest carefully and said, "Brother, do you know how to remove poison?"
The old abacus said with a headache: "A few years ago, a shaman recruited me to be his son-in-law. If I became his son-in-law, he would be able to teach me, but I was too strong-willed at the time and did not agree to this marriage..."
“I don’t have much ability, but I have a lot of criticism.”
Hu Ma complained secretly in her heart, but she also had a headache. She didn’t know what was in the forest, or even how many weird things were hidden there. Even though she was a person who kept watch over the years and was not afraid of ordinary poisonous insects, she didn’t dare to break in...
But I came here in a hurry to take over the Blood Food Mine, and now I have to give up halfway and just turn around?
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a snort. It was the horse that had been following me all the way. It raised its head excitedly and looked into the deep forest.
Then, without saying hello, it suddenly raised its hoof silently and walked slowly forward.
Zhou Datong and others were startled and hurriedly tried to catch it, but Hu Ma was moved in his heart and said: "Just follow it." Lao Pansuan and others were full of confusion, but they saw that Hu Ma was already following him. Behind the horse, others hurriedly followed. Even the donkey, which had been alert for a long time, clamped its tail and followed quietly.
“Chi chi chi chi…”
Following the horse into the deep forest, everyone was more and more surprised. Just now, the appearance in the forest was no different from the outside, but now the horse was walking in front, stepping through the grass. I kicked the vine away, but it suddenly felt like I had hit a honeycomb.
Among the swaying branches and leaves on both sides, from time to time, poisonous insects or strange powders popped out from both sides and attached to the horse's back one by one, causing hissing and stinging pain.
Through the dim light of the sky, they actually saw scorpions the size of a thumb, spiders the size of copper coins, slender strange snakes with black rings and white background, etc.
When Leng Buding looked around, he couldn't see these things at all and were hiding on both sides, but now they all jumped out one after another. They greeted the horse at the same time like a frightened honeycomb, making everyone following behind feel numb. .
The horse was obviously in pain. Its body kept shaking, but its steps became more and more brisk. When it couldn't stand it anymore, it even neighed happily twice, as if it was celebrating something.
“This horse…”
The poisonous insects on both sides are scary, but the performance of this horse is even more scary.
Both Lao Baanpan and Zhou Datong and others already felt a little numb. This horse was a little crazy.
“This man finally got through it...”
Huma followed behind, feeling a little panicked, but she only sighed lightly in her heart, as if she had fulfilled some kind of request.
Miss Claret, at that time, gave the horse into her own hands just to let it die.
It wanted to die, but it couldn't be killed by someone else's hands, so it could only wait for death to come. Miss Red Wine asked her to bring it here because there was really no danger that could satisfy it in her farm. .
At this moment, it has gone through the Gu array for itself, and died from the evil poison in its body, which means it has finally reached its own perfection.
Huma will not kill it with his own hands, nor will he deliberately send it to a dead end, but now that it has found its own opportunity, of course it will not stop it...
In this way, I borrowed this horse to go into the battle, and everyone followed behind me. Little by little, I walked through the forest and saw the lights in front of me.
When they finally passed through, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The poisonous insects on the horse suddenly became stiff and fell down. Its body was also red, swollen and blue, its hoofs and feet were weak, and it suddenly fell heavily.
"careful!"
Hu Ma rushed forward and turned his hands to death to avoid being stained by the poison. Then he supported the horse's chest and made it slowly kneel to the ground.
Looking into the horse's empty eyes, one could see its relief. Hu Ma just nodded to it lightly, not intending to explain its confidence and reasons for doing so to others. It was enough for him to know. .
But watching the horse kneel down slowly, lying quietly in the grass waiting to die, Hu Ma also turned his head coldly and glanced at the forest behind him. No matter who had just set up this Gu array, it was What's the purpose? But I remembered it myself.
Beside him, there is a simple wooden door, with a tattered red lantern on it. There is no fire inside now, and it is just swaying helplessly in the wind.
Hu Ma just glanced at it and understood the attitude of this blood food mine towards the Red Lantern Society.
The red lantern is the symbol of the Red Lantern Empress. Hanging a red lantern means that this place is the territory of the Red Lantern Empress. Although it is hung here, it is not replenished or repaired, and the red lantern is left to weather. , not like a sign, but like a joke hanging here.
Going deeper, you can see a valley ahead, with braziers and torches lit everywhere, making the whole area brightly illuminated.
In the valley, countless people with knives and guns in their hands and brave expressions were sitting there setting up fires and roasting meat to eat. Suddenly they saw Hu Ma and others coming, and they were startled and rushed over.
Each one looked at him with evil eyes and shouted: "Who are you? This is a blood food mine. You just barge in and you don't want to die?"
…”
“Miner?”
Hu Ma glanced at this group of ragged people with unkind expressions, but did not take them seriously. Instead, he looked past them and looked into the depths of the valley. He suddenly took a deep breath and gave a sharp shout. :
“Where is the person in charge here?”
"I am a disciple of Qingxiang, the Queen of the Red Lantern. I am here to check the accounts. The head of the mine, come and see me quickly!"
…”
This shout caused the faces of the miners in front of them to change drastically. They stepped back involuntarily, and the things in their hands clattered to the ground.
The horse next to him was poisoned by countless strange poisons. It had slowly lowered its huge head, welcoming the arrival of death. Even its consciousness was blurred, as if it was about to fall into endless darkness...
…Then he was jolted awake and looked at Hu Ma with a resentful look in his eyes: "The feeling I had just been brewing was suddenly wiped out by you..."
