"Is there anything weird about this Green Vine Mountain?
Liu Xiaojie on the side quickly took out a sheepskin map from his arms and pointed to the location of Luteng Mountain for Gu Yuan to see.
"There's nothing weird about it, Senior Brother Gu, look, it's right here."
Gu Yuan looked where Liu Xiaojie pointed, and Liu Xiaojie continued to introduce: "Luteng Mountain is only a hundred miles away from us, so it's not very far."
Luteng Mountain is a thousand-foot-tall mountain that is shrouded in fog all year round. The mountain is very humid and the trees grow so tall that it blocks out the sky and the sun.
The mountain is also very steep. Behind the mountain is a cliff, and below the cliff is a large pool.
Luteng Mountain is not connected to other mountains and is relatively independent. There are tall and lush trees everywhere, but there are too many snakes and insects on the mountain.
Therefore, Luteng Mountain was originally called Luteng Thousand Snake Mountain by the locals.
It was just called Sentoyama because it was too difficult to pronounce.
After listening to Liu Xiaojie's introduction, Gu Yuan frowned and asked: "Is this Qi Youlin always on Luteng Mountain?
Have you never left?"
"Yes, he has never left since he arrived at Luteng Mountain. He has been staying near the pool at the bottom of the cliff of Luteng Mountain. There is a cave on the mountain there. A junior brother saw Qi Youlin taking Lin Xiao and Du Mingyue into the cave with his own eyes.
of."
"Pool?
Is there anything weird about that pool?"
Li Yiming recalled it carefully, and then said, "The pool was very calm, and there seemed to be no living creatures around it. There was nothing particularly weird about it, but the water in the pool was extremely dark.
Because Qi Youlin is here, we dare not go forward to check."
Gu Yuan nodded and then asked: "Have you seen the three of them since they entered the cave?
Could it be that there is another entrance to the cave and they have already left?"
"After the three of them entered the cave, only Qi Youlin came out, while Lin Xiao and Du Mingyue never came out.
"
"So, before the three of them entered the cave, did any of you see Lin Xiao and Du Mingyue?"
"Yes, I have seen it."
"I've seen it too! Lin Xiao and Du Mingyue have been following Qi Youlin, like two followers.
From the looks of it, they were not coerced and should have done it voluntarily."
"What do you think of the relationship between the three of them?"
"I don't know. The three of them were always on the road. No one spoke. Qi Youlin always walked in front. Lin Xiao and Du Mingyue just followed him. Neither of them said a word."
"Is it because you can see so clearly because you are so close?
Aren't you afraid that Qi Youlin will find you?"
"Don't be afraid, the distance was not that far at that time, and Qi Youlin always knew that we were chasing him."
Gu Yuan was a little surprised, "He knew you were chasing him, so he still stopped?
Aren’t you afraid that you will bring in reinforcements?”
Gu Yuan instinctively felt that something was not right about this matter.
"I don't know that.
However, Qi Youlin does know that we have been following him, and he doesn't walk very fast, so we can always keep up."
"How many days has Qi Youlin been in the cave?"
"It must have been four days."
"Four days?
!He hasn’t left for four days?”
"I didn't leave, but Qi Youlin was seriously injured. Could it be that he needs to recuperate here?"
Gu Yuan didn't speak. After thinking carefully for a while, he couldn't come up with a clue. He looked at his two companions, Li Cheng and Little Eagle, who were sitting next to him and said:
"It will be dawn soon, and it will take more than an hour at most. After dawn, we will set off to Luteng Mountain to capture Qi Youlin."
Before his two companions could speak, he looked at Li Yiming beside him.
"After dawn, use the sound transmission scroll to send a message to the fellow disciples who are watching Qi Youlin on Luteng Mountain, asking them to keep an eye on Qi Youlin and ensure that we can block Qi Youlin on Luteng Mountain."
"You and Liu Xiaojie will take us there. The rest of the brothers will stay here until we come back. They can't do anything to help us.
Now, let’s take a rest here first.”
Liu Xiaojie immediately brought over two live chickens, "Senior Brother Gu, I bought these in Bailu Village in the evening. Let's roast them and eat them."
The other members of Li Yiming's team gathered around. It seemed that they had been sleeping in the open during this period and their food was not good. You could guess their desire for chicken by looking at it.
In order to accumulate points for the Class A mission, everyone spent all their money, and these two chickens were most likely bought specially to entertain Gu Yuan and the others.
The little eagle clattered and took out a ferocious beast antelope from the Qiankun Ring, "Why are you eating chicken? Let's eat roasted lamb today!"
Soon, earth-shattering cheers came from the small mountain temple.
…
As soon as it dawned, Gu Yuan and the others, together with Li Yiming and Liu Xiaojie, set off for Luteng Mountain.
A journey of a hundred miles only takes a moment for Gu Yuan and his party who have flying spiritual weapons.
Green Vine Mountain is full of white mist and tall trees, and flying magic weapons are no longer of use here.
In order to avoid long nights and heavy dreams, and to worry about Qi Youlin and the others being relocated, Gu Yuan and the others immediately collected their airships after arriving at the foot of the mountain and raced against time to head towards the Black Water Pond.
In just one stick of incense, the three of them had arrived at the foot of Luteng Mountain, with the Black Water Pond not far ahead.
The mountain here is not high, but few people nearby come close to it, just because this mountain, as its name suggests, is rich in various snakes.
Ordinary snakes hide in the grass or other inaccessible places.
But the snakes in Luteng Mountain are all over the mountains and plains, overwhelming.
As long as you don't pay attention and step on the grass nest, several snakes will come out.
Fortunately, most of these snakes are non-venomous, and everyone has antidote pills on hand, so there is no need to panic.
As soon as Gu Yuan and others arrived at the foot of the mountain, they could see countless snakes at the foot of the mountain.
Gu Yuan collected the flying boat and prepared to go up the mountain.
The little eagle said: "Let me clear the way in front, you follow me."
There is no mountain trail up the mountain in Luteng Mountain.
The only narrow trail is the one used by nearby snake catchers.
However, even on this intestine-like path, you can still see a large number of snakes crawling in front of Gu Yuan and his party.
These snakes are not afraid of humans and completely treat Gu Yuan and his party as if they were nothing.
In order to speed up the mountain climbing, the little eagle pulled out his saber and walked at the front to clear the way for his companions.
For ordinary people, the snakes all over the mountains and plains might put them off, but for Gu Yuan and his party, they had killed countless hordes of zombies, and these snakes were nothing at all.
The little eagle's saber was a magical weapon obtained with points after leaving the secret realm. It was just a good time to take it out and try it out. It couldn't be easier to use it to kill the black snakes blocking the road along the trail.
Soon, the little eagle swung its knife frequently, and the smelly snake blood was everywhere. The three of them stepped on all kinds of snake carcasses, and kept getting closer to the water pool in Luteng Mountain.
