"Thank you so much, Palace Master Zhao!" Yan Yunshang bit her lips to prevent herself from crying.
Next, Zhao Feng obtained the map of Wushan from Yan Yunshang and left the stronghold alone.
The stronghold of Wudou Palace is located in the ruins of an ancient city from the Qin Dynasty. The once majestic ancient city now has only ruins left, and is used as a temporary residence by merchants and horse teams.
There is a road to Wushan that is frequently traveled by caravans. Because it was getting late, there were no travelers on the road.
Running all the way, Zhao Feng quickly reached the foot of the Wushan Mountain. Because the Wushan Mountain was very evil, no one returned to the barren mountain near the road even in broad daylight.
Wushan Mountain is not high, with the peak no more than a thousand meters high. Due to the wind and sand, the top of the mountain is bare. However, there are people secretly guarding the place halfway up the mountain. Once anyone who does not know the details comes here, they will be immediately killed by lurking secret sentries.
.
By the moonlight, Zhao Feng figured out the location of the outer secret sentry. As for the more hidden secret sentry, he could only be more careful in his actions.
"There are six places in total. These guys of unknown origin are so careful that they actually use this place as a prison!"
Yan Yunshang and others had escaped by chance and had been unable to sneak back here, so they did not know that Senior Brother Zhu and his companions had been captured alive after holding on for less than three days.
These mysterious guys, for some unknown reason, did not send Senior Brother Zhu and others to other places for a month, let alone execute them.
Originally, Zhao Feng, Yan Yunshang and others thought that this place was just a barren mountain, but that was not the case.
"Strange, this kind of thing is only used by some magic arrays, why is there such a thing here!"
On a mountain rock, there are some scattered stones scattered around. Others may not notice it, but Zhao Feng happens to know that a kind of phantom array requires this form of artifacts to form the phantom array.
Seeing these things that looked messy but were actually arranged in an orderly manner, Zhao Feng began to be more careful and used the Holy Eye.
"Sure enough, there is another mystery here!"
What Zhao Feng saw through the Holy Eyes was no longer a barren mountain, but a lush mountain.
There are many buildings hidden among the dense vegetation.
Zhao Feng quietly sneaked near the building and found that the buildings here were very simple, with tools and scattered abandoned ores scattered everywhere.
"Could it be that there is a place similar to Jinshan Fort here?"
Thinking of this, Zhao Feng didn't dare to be careless anymore. Suddenly, a strong wind hit behind his head. In desperation, he hurriedly jumped forward and turned over with a palm.
With a bang, someone slapped Zhao Feng head-on, and Zhao Feng took this opportunity to turn around.
The person who sneaked up behind him was a burly man wearing a black hood with only a pair of eyes exposed.
The big man was wearing a very unique leather armor and had no weapons in his hands. To Zhao Feng's surprise, the man was not poisoned and died.
Although Zhao Feng has just started to learn poison skills, with the help of Lady Poison, even warriors who are a level higher than him will be killed by the poison palm.
However, Zhao Feng overestimated his opponent. The big man exchanged blows with Zhao Feng head-on and soon died of the poison. However, he was too big, and where he was standing, there was a rock blocking his legs.
so that he did not fall, as if he continued to maintain a fighting posture.
However, Zhao Feng soon discovered that the other party was no longer breathing. He stepped forward and gave him a gentle push, and the other party fell down easily.
"This armor is not bad!" Zhao Feng didn't mind harvesting something from the dead body. He pulled off the armor from the dead body in two or two strokes.
"Why aren't the guards here?"
In the dark night, someone asked in a low voice. It was unknown how many people were nearby and the situation was unknown. Zhao Fengjing hid in the dark and did not move.
"Your Majesty, the guards of this generation are carefully selected and will not be so careless. Someone must have come to the door again!"
In the darkness, someone whispered an order: "Give me the order, increase the number of guards, send patrols to search closely, and don't let go of any suspicious places!"
"As you command!"
In the darkness, Zhao Feng heard that there were at least seven or eight people nearby, and the venerable leader should be at the early stage of the middle realm.
After a while, these people all disappeared quietly. This situation puzzled Zhao Feng.
After waiting for another incense stick, Zhao Feng quietly slipped over and came to the place where someone had just stopped. Only then did he discover that there was a secret passage hidden among the vegetation.
"No wonder these guys can come and go quietly. It turns out they are through this secret passage."
Zhao Feng was not arrogant enough to sneak into the tunnel to track the enemy. After thinking about it, he returned to the dead body of the big man, searched carefully, took off the black cloth covering the big man's head, and found that the big man was not a human being, but a half-demon.
This half-demon guard wore an earring on his right ear. Zhao Feng recognized it at a glance. It was a type of equipment that the demon clan liked to wear, similar to a storage ring.
From this earring, Zhao Feng found a map. Unfortunately, this guard's status was not high. He only had a map of a nearby place, and the secret passage only showed one entrance and exit.
"Forget it, it's difficult to perform in the tunnel, I'll just search on the spot!"
Zhao Feng left the dead body and searched along the missing house, and found a trail leading from the house to other places.
Walking along the vegetation on one side of the trail, Zhao Feng soon discovered a stone wall in front of him, and three caves were dug under the stone wall.
"Sure enough, this is where the mining is! According to the induction from the token, our people are nearby. Could it be that there is a dungeon here!"
Zhao Feng did not rush into the cave, but searched carefully nearby, but there was still nothing suspicious.
Creak, creak, a sound came from nearby, Zhao Feng hurriedly jumped up the stone wall and hid in a crack on the top of the stone wall.
About five or six feet away from the cave on the left side of the stone wall, a cave entrance opened on the ground, and there was a faint light projected from below.
A masked man holding a companion came out, followed by two other hooded guards.
"Your Majesty is overly suspicious. He asked us to increase our manpower in the middle of the night. This mountain is filled with poisonous fog. Anyone who dares to come in will have no choice but to come back!"
"Shut up! The guard walking at the front turned back and glared: "How can we, Your Majesty, be the one we can talk about? You don't want your life!"
"Boss, I know, I won't dare to do it again!"
Zhao Feng hid on top of the stone wall and saw everything clearly. There was no life around him. He immediately jumped down, like an evil eagle preying on prey, and fell from the sky. With both palms down, the leader of the half-demon guard and the second
The guard was killed directly.
Before landing, he swept his right leg and kicked the third guard down. Then, the moment he landed, Zhao Feng rolled on the spot and put a black dagger in his hand at the throat of the third guard.
