The Tai'a Mountains are full of lush trees and rolling mountains.
Affected by the Yang tide, mountain beasts are everywhere in it, and poisonous insects are rampant.
Coupled with the humid environment and miasma in the mountains and forests, it would be difficult to adapt to it without hard work and the ability to survive in the mountains and forests.
But even so, the rare elixirs and precious mineral veins in the mountains and forests still attract countless martial arts warriors to flock in.
It is precisely because of this that more and more people are walking. In the outer area, hidden in the forest, there are many secret roads that have been opened up spontaneously.
Like Lingtai Sect, Black Hand Tower is like this.
At this time, it leaves Longyun Mountain and bypasses a boundary in the middle called Zangshe Gorge.
This canyon is semi-concave in shape, surrounded by strange black Christmas tree-shaped trees that are more than ten meters high.
The dense woods block the sun and make the canyon, which is approximately 70 to 80 degrees, filled with an eerie and bone-chilling chill.
In such a gloomy environment, a mountain beast called the black iron-headed snake was born.
The poison is so strong that even a master martial artist may die if he accidentally bites it and gets poisoned.
On the secret passage, a light red carriage moved forward quickly.
The people pulling the cart were not any beasts, but six strong men in black attire and black veils covering their faces.
In the carriage, Lin Mo was sitting in the middle, and Tunan was sitting next to him.
There are also several deputy building owners of the Black Hand Building hiding in the surroundings, responsible for dealing with the mountain beasts and insects blocking the road.
As if out of the middle zone, the strongest mountain beasts around are none other than the Grandmaster, the Great Grandmaster, and the sub-building and deputy building owners. They are all stronger than Zhenjun, so they did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
"How's things going in the settlement now?"
In the carriage, the faint fragrance of gardenia rises from the incense burner in the corner.
Lin Mo exited the Dharma-aligned state and slightly opened the curtain of the car window. The dense forest shadow outside the window quickly approached, and in an instant he was left behind the car again.
"It has basically been solved. Thanks to the previous blood beast disaster, many people died in those settlements and became depressed a lot. In addition, some people secretly caused trouble.
We took advantage of the situation and entered, using some means to open two post roads, which is almost enough. However, it is not easy to enter the neighborhood committees. There are several forces related to the groups of reclusive families in the mountains who insist on not letting go. "
Tunan couldn't help but feel a little more violent in his voice as he recalled the names of those factions.
"If it weren't for the fact that there were people behind it, how many true kings would have killed them long ago? I don't know what they are crazy about!"
He rubbed his fleshy face and said, "Those factions each have a large number of shops in the settlements, buying so-called mountain products, and at the same time, they also maintain a group of herb collectors. It is a black and white deal."
Lin Mo looked at the scenery outside the window, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.
No matter whether it is black or white, or whether there is someone behind it, its biggest reliance is nothing more than something that can be crushed to death in one go.
If you think about it this way, the so-called difficult situation is nothing.
"You can take another look, and if it doesn't work, then take action. But there is no need to bother with those little pawns, just touch their master directly.
When the big trees you rely on fall down, what kind of waves can you make no matter how crazy you are?"
Tunan looked happy and nodded immediately with a smile. He had long wanted to cut through the mess quickly and start a big fight.
"By the way, you have come into contact with the blood beast you mentioned. How do you feel about it?" Lin Mo was more interested in the blood beast disaster that was so popular before.
You don't have to think about this, you know there must be something fishy.
However, to have so many true kings and even great sages return without success is enough to show how extraordinary they are.
It would be fine if this thing existed elsewhere, but it happened to be in the Tai'a Mountains, so he also wanted to know more about it.
"The blood beast... is indeed a bit weird compared to the strange beasts in the mountains. It has no intelligence, but is extremely cunning. After devouring enough prey, it will return spontaneously.
As if this is a task, similar to the worker ants among ants." Tunan replied.
This is an analysis and guess made by specialized personnel after testing and detailed information uploaded by other gangsters.
"Similar to worker ants?" Lin Mo said thoughtfully, "If possible, pay more attention to this matter."
"yes."
"Besides... how far is it from the destination?" he asked.
"It's not that far away. The location happens to be in the Tai'a Mountains, right in the outer area."
Tunan turned over a piece of paper with countless lines drawn on it. He glanced at it twice and nodded.
"But the other side I found is in Chongbei Plain."
Lin Mo nodded and lowered the curtain of the car window.
"Boost."
Another part of the mountains.
"Finally I picked the purple jade iron ginseng fruit!"
Two well-dressed men, all dressed in black, looked at a radish-like herb on a steep cliff that was completely purple but had an iron-grey tip.
"Who would have thought that in Wanyi City, you and I, known as the Double Blood Eagle Snake, would come here and actually start hunting for medicine..."
The person on the left has hands with skin shaped like withered wood, thick and ferocious joints, and nails that are long and sharp, three inches long.
After the smile passed, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"This is actually not bad. Originally, I was tired of fighting and killing in Wanyicheng. I had long wanted to retire from the world and wash my hands in a golden basin. However, due to my status, I was unable to realize it.
Now that we have come to the Tai'a Mountains, we have actually achieved what we wanted."
The other man's exposed skin was smooth and white, and his voice was more feminine than that of an ordinary man. He smiled and said:
"That guy has a good temper. If we two brothers complete a few more missions, we may apply for retirement from him and only take action at special moments. There is a high probability that he will agree."
"Retire?" Tie Ying was slightly absent-minded. He looked at the people beside him, a soft color appeared in his eyes, and nodded.
"fair enough!"
I heard that the Heishou Building is planning to build a branch building deep in the mountains, at Wuyou Mountain.
By then, safety will be guaranteed, and the two brothers can open a field nearby, build a house with a fence, and live a secluded life.
"This matter can be discussed in the long run. We will take down this object first. As before, I will take action. Brother Ying, please pay attention to the accompanying strange beasts around you." The blood snake said softly.
"Okay." Tie Ying replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, the person beside him turned into a black shadow, zigzagging and jumping in the air, and in an instant he was as high as the purple ginseng.
But just as it disappeared, Tie Ying also flashed.
Then he came up from behind and appeared next to the blood snake. His palms, which were much thicker than ordinary people, condensed into the shape of claws, and the light black energy condensed into substance and covered it.
The next moment, he hit the steep mountain wall hard.
boom!
The mountain wall shattered suddenly, and a large black shadow within it froze for a moment as if struck by lightning, then suddenly expanded and became thinner after reacting.
It turned out to be a stone snake hidden in the mountains.
The scales are the same as those of rocks, as thick as an ordinary person's waist, and more than ten meters long.
At this time, Tie Ying's expression did not change. He made a wing-spreading gesture with his other hand, lifted one foot up, and stepped accurately on the head of the stone snake with the other foot.
boom!
A kite appeared in the air and turned over. At the same time, he reached out with one hand and stopped.
In his hand was a gray snake body without a head.
The snake's head with a broken skull and its bloody spine fell to the ground, and the blood dripped down. The snake's mouth was still opening and closing, which was very scary.
Tie Ying looked calm and put away the blood-stained snake body. This is a good thing. You can make a pot of snake soup at night.
He remembered that blood snakes liked to eat snake soup the most.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, looking for someone.
However, when he looked up, he found that the familiar person was standing motionless on the cliff valley, with a carrot-like ginseng in his hand.
"What's wrong?" Tie Ying pointed his toes, stretched out his figure, and asked alongside him.
He followed the person next to him and looked into the distance. His body suddenly stiffened and paused.
The location where the two of them were looking was a valley.
At this time, there is a huge tree growing in the valley. Its tree body is like peeled flesh, and the tree lines are very similar to muscle lines.
Countless blood cells hang on the dense branches,
There are cyan blood vessels on these blood cells, which look like hearts.
From time to time, a heart falls to the ground.
A series of blood shadows stood upright from it, and then rushed into the depths of the mountain forest.
"This is...?" Tie Ying was in a trance. In his mind, he could feel that the thing in front of him gave people an extremely weird and evil feeling.
"Let's go!" At this moment, the blood snake seemed to have thought of something, its expression changed drastically, it dragged the people beside it and shot towards the distance.
Suddenly, a surprised and weird sound came from the distance.
"Hey, a little ant actually came here? Now that we're here, we don't have to leave. Why don't we stay and rest for a while?"
"Um?!"
Blood Snake and Iron Eagle looked at each other and without hesitation crushed a pink pill in their sleeves.
The light red carriage stopped in a slightly calm forest in the outer area of the Tai'a Mountains.
Go forward.
Sure enough, clusters of stone houses and tall walls appeared.
However, most of the wall has collapsed, and many of the stone houses have also collapsed.
There are many soil pits on the surrounding forest floor, and the soil is blood-colored. These are traps that have been used.
.
There is no doubt that this place is also a settlement, but it must have suffered a beast disaster not long ago.
"That's it." Tunan said respectfully. "This is the information given by another branch. Most of the people in this area are immigrants from Huaizhou, and the strongest among them is the Grandmaster.
Every once in a while on weekdays, he would go out to sell goods. One of the masters, whose surname was Ye, was extremely powerful in swordsmanship. He was obviously only a second-level master, but he killed two veteran masters with one against two, and became famous in one fell swoop.
It is precisely because of this that this small settlement attracted a lot of people and became stronger. The current situation should be related to the blood beast tide not long ago." Tunan explained softly.
He paused and said, "According to the information provided by your Excellency, the master who wields the sword is 60-70% similar except for his realm, moves and appearance."
Lin Mo nodded and led the people forward.
The collapsed wall in front of me had been repaired somewhat, but only temporarily and covered with some branches.
Still more than ten meters away from it, he stopped, lowered his head, looked at the dirt road full of branches and weeds, lifted his feet, and gently lowered them.
boom!
The next moment, the ground suddenly trembled and shook.
In front of Lin Mo, a series of gray soil flowers exploded on the dirt path that stretched to the wall.
The shattered and splashing clods of soil were like blooming flowers, now connected in a line, spreading rapidly towards the distance,
Also flying out with it were many iron spikes, tiger traps and other hidden weapons.
boom!
In the end, the waves of earth hit the barely repaired wall. Under the cover of those weeds and branches, there was actually a red iron plate.
At this time, they collided hard and immediately made a dull sound.
In less than half a breath, one of them couldn't bear it and collapsed.
Immediately afterwards, there was a strange noise inside the wall.
A breath appeared one after another.
"It seems that the person is still there." Tunan on the side chuckled and showed a smile.
He was afraid that this so-called settlement would be invaded by the tide of blood beasts and eventually be abandoned.
In this case, their trip was in vain.
"Everyone."
Hearing the sound of the bow string being pulled and the crossbow being cocked, Tunan's expression remained unchanged, he opened his hands and walked forward slowly with a smile:
"We are from another settlement, and we are also from Huaizhou. We are here to find people from our hometown. We have no ill intentions."
As he spoke, he raised his hands.
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a loud shout.
"Medicine dog of Juyao Gang? You said this rhetoric half a month ago? Are you still saying this now? Do you really think we are stupid?!
Go to hell!"
Before he finished speaking, dozens of black shadows came through the sky.
It was an arrow, with a light green color at the tip and a pungent smell, obviously highly poisonous.
At the same time, the arrow body is integrated, and the wooden arrow body has a spiral bleeding port, which is very scary.
The archers were obviously not weak in strength. They were all masters at the level of destiny. They were also very particular about archery, which directly blocked all possibilities of Tunan's positioning.
"Huh? Juyao Gang?" Tunan was stunned when he heard this, and he immediately guessed something. He looked at the rain of arrows that flew in front of him in a blink of an eye, and pushed forward with one hand.
boom!
The surging energy suddenly burst out of the body, and the flying arrows seemed to be stuck in the mud, and immediately became stagnant.
He then moved his hand aside.
These specially made arrows broke into several pieces and then fell aside.
At this time, more than ten people appeared at the broken wall.
When everyone saw this scene, their faces froze and their expressions became extremely ugly.
"Quick, quick, quick! It's a great master! Go and ask Master Ye to use the last thunder and fire!"
The speaker is a woman.
He has an ordinary face, short hair, eyes as sharp as an eagle, a long scar on his cheek, and a bit of a vicious aura.
His strength is not weak either. He is a half-step master. Judging by his aura, he is about to reach the perfection of the inner world, break through the realm of freedom, and become a master.
Holding a giant iron-tied bow in his hand, he was the first to recover and shouted violently.
As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people woke up from a dream. One by one, they took out firecracker-like objects from the empty stone ring and pointed them at Lin Mo and others.
"Sun Changning? Don't you recognize me?"
At this time, Lin Mo, who had been watching all this, his eyes fell on the other party and suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
The woman who was also taking out a giant fire gun suddenly changed her expression, her eyes showed confusion, and she was a little hesitant.
After she came to Yizhou, she was given a surname by her master and changed her name.
The previous name is no longer used, and only acquaintances know it...
"This brother!"
At this moment, a feminine voice came from afar.
"I discovered this place first and planned it for a long time. You guys suddenly came to pick fruits, but it's not in line with the rules of the world."
