Three days later!
Deep in the mountains of Xiangxi.
A few figures were walking.
Other than Qin Hao, there was also Chen Yulou, Miss Hong, Guaizi, Big Bad Boy Luo, Kunlun, and a local Miao child from Xiangxi, Rongbao Yixiao.
Because they did not know the exact location of the Xiangxi underground palace, if they rashly brought the army of Big crooked guy Luo up the mountain, they might disturb the Xiangxi villagers who lived on the mountain! Over the years, warlords had been at war, and the people had been living in poverty. Not only were there warlords killing people, but there were also bandits rampaging through the countryside. When these people saw these strangers, they were more afraid than when they saw the god of plague. If they saw these guys coming here with guns, wouldn't they pick up their weapons and fight them to the death? Therefore, Qin Hao suggested that they go up the mountain first to investigate the Xiangxi underground palace. Then, they would bring Big crooked guy Luo's men over.
For the locals of Xiangxi, Ping Mountain was not a good place. According to the child, there was the Xiangxi Corpse King and the white-haired old woman in Ping Mountain. The Xiangxi Corpse King did not only eat animals, but also liked to eat people. As long as the white-haired old woman appeared, no matter how many people there were, they would not be able to escape death.
Many people who had rushed to the Bottle Mountain had disappeared without a trace. Even their bodies had not been found. Therefore, most Xiangxi people rarely went to the Bottle Mountain.
The reason why he became their team's guide was that under the coercion and temptation of Luo Da Zi and Chen Yulou's deception, this child became their local guide in a daze.
"This Xiangxi Corpse King seems to understand, but what is this white-haired old woman?”After hearing Rong Bao and Yi Xiao's words, the kidnapper picked up the burden on his body and asked in confusion.
In fact, this was also the question that most people wanted to ask. Xiangxi Corpse King, just from the name, one could tell that it was Xiangxi's dumpling! Moreover, it was a dumpling king. Not to mention whether he could meet it or not, just hearing the name, he knew that it was extraordinary! However, this white-haired old woman was too strange. Could it be that she was an old woman demon with white hair all over her body?
"Rumor has it that this is something that looks like a human but not a human, like a fox but not a fox! It was covered in white fur, just like a white fox. However, it was tall and much bigger than an ordinary fox. It ate human flesh and poisonous insects as its food. It loved drinking the dew in the mountains. So far, no one who had seen him had survived.”Qin Wu walked in front and gently waved the folding fan in his hand as he explained in an indifferent tone.
He had also read about this information from books.
After hearing this, Rongbao Yixiao nodded and continued,""This old man knows a lot. I used to hear from my mother that this dense forest was once the place where many emperors refined pills. There were many poisonous insects and monsters. That white-haired old woman probably moved here because there were more poisonous insects here.”
"Damn it, it sounds really dangerous. Child, don't tell me you don't want to lead the way and deliberately said something about a white-haired old woman to scare us?”Big crooked Luo, who was walking behind, couldn't help but take out the cigarette in his mouth. He spat out his eyes and asked.
" Impossible!!" Rongbao Yixiao shook his head and said anxiously to Big crooked son Luo,""I just don't want you to take that risk. There are too many people who never come back after going to a dangerous place like Bottle Mountain.”
"Humph! I don't care about that. Since we've come all the way here, how can we return without even seeing Bottle Mountain?”Big crooked son Luo bit his tobacco pipe and shouted at Rongbao Yixiao with a fierce expression.
Qin Hao ignored them when he heard the voices beside his ears.
Instead, he looked around.
There were dense forests everywhere, layer after layer. Although the high mountains looked very close, they were actually very far away. The dense forests and high mountains in Xiangxi had always been like a maze. The geographical location was relatively remote, and there were many stories passed down! There was not much information about this place. Now, Qin Hao understood that if there was no guide, it was really easy to get lost in this place.
The winding mountain path and the dark green forest were enough to dazzle people.
No wonder people often said!
In the mountains and forests of Xiangxi, the ferocious beasts and ghosts left!
"There are layers after layers of this mountain forest. If we don't have a guide, I'm afraid we'll really get lost!”Chen Yulou took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He turned back to Qin Hao and smiled.
"Yes! However, it's getting late. I think we should find a place to rest as soon as possible. Otherwise, we can only sleep in this desolate mountain range.”Chen Yulou's words were exactly what Qin Hao was thinking. However, Qin Hao was thinking even more. When he raised his head to look at the sky, he realized that the sky had already begun to darken.
"9th master is right!" Chen Yulou nodded, then turned to Rongbao Yixiao and asked,""Little brother, how far is it to get to Bottle Mountain?”
Rongbao Yixiao looked up at the sky and shook his head,""According to our journey, we should not be able to reach it today. However, there is a place not far from here that we can rest in. However..."
Speaking up to this point, Rong Bao Yi Xiao's face revealed a hesitant expression.
"But what?" Qin Wu asked.
"It's just that it's a mortuary, and the people inside are all dead. I heard that there's a man-eating rat spirit inside that eats living people.”Rongbao Yixiao said in a heavy tone. There was a trace of fear on his face, and it didn't seem like he was lying.
"You motherf * cker! Where did so many monsters come from? If someone died, so be it. What's there to be afraid of? It's not like he can jump up and eat you! Lead the way." Big crooked guy Luo roared again, interrupting the conversation. He was already impatient with this child's words. What nonsense was this? This monster, that monster, how could there be so many monsters?
Looking at the fiendish person in front of him, Rongbao and Yixiao were also trembling in fear, and could only lead the way silently.
However, they had been walking for a long time in the depths of the forest.
The sky gradually darkened from its initial brightness. They had yet to arrive at the mortuary Rong Bao Yi Xiao had mentioned. Instead, they had been circling around the dense forest.
It felt like she couldn't walk out even if she walked around.
Finally! Qin Hao also felt that something was wrong. He pulled Rongbao Yixiao and asked,"Are you sure you didn't lead me the wrong way?"
"No, no! Usually, this route should take less than half a minute to reach, but why was it still not here after walking for so long today!”At this moment, Rong Bao's face was filled with panic. Large beads of sweat had already fallen from his dark forehead. Clearly, he was also a little strange. Today's road seemed to have no end. The surrounding dense forest had not changed at all since the beginning.
"Damn it, can you find the way or not? Are you kidding me?”Big crooked guy Luo suddenly broke a mouthful of phlegm and shouted loudly.
"I didn't!" Rongbao Yixiao was also so anxious that he almost jumped up. His anxious face pondered for a moment before his eyes suddenly widened. He panicked and said with a trembling voice,"I know. We, we were blocked by that white-haired old woman!”
