And knowing that an airplane is flying at an altitude of 5,000 feet and can be seen by the human eye, this mountain of dead trees is not even covered by leaves, so how can it be impossible to see the real mountain?
Not to mention the farmers who chop wood, they may get lost and not get out, but those in the martial arts world, not to mention anything else, as long as they know a little bit of Qinggong, they only need to fly up the branches and follow the direction of the sun, and then they can go down the mountain...
You can't get in or out, there's something weird about this mountain!
Ye Xue quickly turned her eyes and hid in a pile of straw on the side.
In the blink of an eye, as soon as Ye Xue hid, the second elder, Nangong Qingfeng, led a group of about ten people to the foot of the mountain with all their luggage.
Seeing that Nangong Qingfeng was about to rush onto the path, the second elder stopped him. He pointed to the position halfway up the mountain, "There is something weird about this mountain. There is no cover and you can't see through it. There seems to be thick fog above the mountainside..."
Nangong Qingfeng put his hand on the hilt of the sword on the left and whispered: "If you don't have any weird things, you have to do it. No matter what it is, my Nangong family must get rare and rare treasures."
The second elder nodded. No matter what the road ahead was, they had no choice but to rush forward.
"Everyone, please be careful and don't get separated!" After that, the second elder took the lead, and the group quickly disappeared.
Ye Xue flew out of the thatch, jumped up, and quickly chased after the second elder and the others.
The mountain road is long and the trails are winding.
Ye Xue carefully followed the second elder and the others.
Along the way, the second elder reminded everyone from time to time to concentrate and be vigilant. However, after walking for half an hour and seeing only dead trees and no danger, the guards slowly dropped their vigilance.
In the end, the two guards even chatted quietly about home affairs.
"That's great. I didn't expect that we would be selected for this operation..."
"Haha. I didn't expect that. I originally thought that with our martial arts, we would only be able to make a living in Jinling for the rest of our lives. I didn't expect that the second elder promised us to complete the mission and transfer us to our family..."
"That's the capital city. There's gold everywhere... No matter how good Jinling is, it's not as good as the capital city..."
"But you said that the second elder and the eldest young master have personally taken part in the mission. What kind of mission is it? I don't even have so many people in my family, but I choose people in Aurous Hill..."
"What do you care about this? Anyway, for me, being transferred to the capital is the best——Ah!!!————"
"Ah! Help -" The frightened screams caused the people in front to turn around, draw their swords, and prepare for the attack.
As far as the eye could see, except for two people missing from the tail of the team and two drag marks on the gravel and sand, there was nothing else.
Ye Xue was hiding behind a big tree. She had just seen with her own eyes the two guards tied into rice dumplings and dragged away with two canes as thick as the child's arms.
"Help..." The cry for help echoed across half of the sky. When I turned to listen, I couldn't tell where it was. It seemed as if the cry came from the sky and spread to the front, back, left, and right.
"Ah——" After another fierce scream, there was no sound.
"Where are the people?" The second elder, Nangong Qingfeng, walked to the end of the team and asked sternly.
They were answered by two exclamations.
The cane came out again and wrapped around the feet of the two guards.
The two second-rate master guards hurriedly cut it off with their swords, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
After waiting for a while, no cane came out again. The second elder glared angrily, raised his hand and moved forward, "Keep walking, watch your step!"
