Chapter 1765: The Phoenix Clan: There Must Be an Unspeakable Secret
Chapter 1765: Phoenix Clan: There must be an ulterior secret
Feng Jiuer, who was sitting behind Qiao Mu, stood up from the horse.
She looked around for a long time, looking in one direction.
"That way, the road is more obvious."
"Okay." Qiao Mu nodded and turned his horse's head.
Feng Jiuer swayed and sat down.
"You want to throw me to death!"
"Sorry! Forgot that there is someone behind you?" Qiao Mu smiled and tilted his head slightly.
From this look, you can tell it's intentional.
Qiao Mu and Feng Jiuer walked in the front, followed by three horses.
"Sister, what are we looking for?" Gong Xing'er dared to ask when seeing no one else.
"Medicine." Gong Xinyue responded, "A hidden poison."
"Poison, who is so bad as to hide the poison deep in the mountains?" Gong Xing'er frowned.
However, no one answered her words.
Qiao Mu rode his horse and stopped after not walking for long.
"You can't ride horses in the front."
"Let's go." Feng Jiuer jumped off the horse.
Everyone also dismounted, packed up their weapons, and continued walking forward along the shapeless road.
Although it is a deep forest, if you look carefully, you can still find some traces.
As the six of them walked along, the trees and jungle became more and more dense.
In the end, the two men in front had to push away the long grass before they could continue forward.
After passing a dense forest, the view finally became clearer.
The long grass taller than a person is gone, and at a glance, the trees on the side are still invisible.
"We can't move forward blindly anymore. Let's take a rest first."
Feng Jiuer spoke and everyone stopped.
Qiao Mu took the map and approached Feng Jiuer.
Gong Xinyue also walked over, and the three of them were discussing.
Gong Xing'er's eyes fell on a tree in the distance.
She looked at it for a while, blinked, took a few steps forward, and then stopped to take a look.
Finally, as if he was sure of something, he opened his legs again and trotted over.
Long Shiyi, who was looking around, felt some movement. When he looked back, he saw Gong Xing'er running away.
"Xing'er." Long Shiyi called softly and chased after him.
The three women gathered together glanced in one direction at the same time, then withdrew their gaze and continued to study the route.
"Brother Long Shiyi, I saw fruits, a lot of fruits." Gong Xing'er shouted as he ran.
Suddenly, she seemed to have tripped over something. She let out a low cry and jumped forward.
"Xing'er." Long Shiyi frowned and quickened his pace.
"Whoosh, whoosh whoosh..." Suddenly, hidden arrows flew out from several directions.
"Don't move!" Long Shiyi stared at the raised little head, jumped over, and rushed over.
He hugged Gong Xing'er and rolled around several times.
When the others saw this, they rushed over and also drew the swords behind them.
Feng Jiuer, holding a short knife, was the first to come to Long Shiyi and Gong Xinger.
"How's it going? Are you injured?"
When Feng Jiu'er reached out to help Gong Xing'er, Jian Yi's palm fell on Long Shiyi's arm.
"I'm fine." Long Shiyi, with Jian Yi's support, helped Gong Xing'er stand up.
"Xing'er, are you okay?" He lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms.
After spending a long time together, Long Shiyi already regarded Gong Xing'er as his sister.
"I'm fine." Gong Xinger shook her head and raised her hand.
Feng Jiuer rolled up her sleeves and found that her elbow was injured.
Gong Xing'er took back her hand and shook her head: "It's just a little scratch, it's okay."
She looked back at the fruit tree just a stone's throw away from them and frowned.
"Why is there a trap? This fruit is not poisonous either."
Feng Jiu'er took out a bottle and rolled up Gong Xing'er's sleeves again.
"Long Shiyi, please help me."
Long Shiyi pulled up Gong Xing'er's sleeve, and Feng Jiu'er applied a little ointment on her long finger.
"Just rub it, it won't hurt much."
"Yeah." Gong Xing'er didn't refuse either.
Feng Jiuer applied medicine to her wound and asked, "Is there any other place where it was rubbed?"
"No." Gong Xing'er shook his head.
Seeing this, Gong Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not for the fruit trees." The tree on the other side picked something on the ground with a long sword.
When everyone heard this, they glanced sideways, then turned around and walked towards her.
"Human, human bones?" Seeing it was a skull, Gong Xinger was so frightened that she threw herself into the arms of the person closest to her.
Long Shiyi skillfully stretched out his hand to cover her back.
"More than one."
Jian Yi's voice attracted everyone's attention again.
Finally, they found several human skeletons nearby and determined that they had all been killed by arrows.
"Jiu'er, there must be some ulterior secret in this direction." Qiao Mu looked in the direction of the fruit trees and frowned.
Feng Jiuer nodded and looked up.
"Let's go and take a look together. Long Shiyi will be careful to protect Xing'er."
"Okay." Long Shiyi nodded.
Ever since Gong Xing'er saw the human bones, she has been holding Long Shiyi's hand.
Although the two of them stayed together all day long, as Qiao Mu said, they were both children.
Those two pairs of eyes were as pure as clear pools, with no unnecessary emotions at all.
Gong Xing'er has always been like this. Long Shiyi was a little resistant at first, but later he gradually accepted it.
Along the way, they passed several traps, and finally they found a place that looked like a cave at the foot of a mountain.
Outside the cave, the road was smoothed, and you could tell that there were people coming and going on a regular basis.
"There are bombs buried ahead." Feng Jiuer held his arm as the sword moved forward.
"Perhaps what we are looking for is inside, so please don't act rashly yet."
"Jiu'er, what should we do now?" Gong Xinyue asked.
Feng Jiuer took Jianyi and lay down behind the grass with him.
The other four people also knelt down one after another and remained silent.
Soon, several figures came out of the cave.
The leader was a man, about thirty years old, well-dressed, and looked like a handsome gentleman.
Next to him was a voluptuous woman in nun's clothes, with her head wrapped in gray cloth.
Behind them, there were two tall followers.
"It's the mayor." Gong Xing'er covered her lips and tried to keep her voice as low as possible.
She looked back at everyone and stopped talking.
It was a bit far from the entrance of the cave, and the few people lurking there couldn't hear the conversation there.
The mayor didn't know what he said, so he walked in another direction and left.
The two attendants followed him and left, leaving the woman turning around and walking inside.
Those who left left, and those who entered entered. In front of the entrance of the cave, calm was restored.
"There are at least fifty masters ambushing around, as well as explosives. How valuable are the things inside?" Qiao Mu sighed in a low voice.
"Let's go back the way we came." Feng Jiuer finally made the decision.
The others didn't say anything and just followed the same path back.
On the way back, we also killed two wild boars, a wild goat, several big fat chickens and hares.
After dinner, Feng Jiuer took everyone away from Nanshan Villa and entered a nearby small village.
