The sun shines through the forest, creating a dazzling white light. The light and shadow are mottled, and the warm breath flows among the scattered branches and leaves!
Liu Ruyan and Zhao Qingzhu did not dare to hesitate, turned over and jumped into the weeds. Seeing a dense bush growing behind him, he immediately hid quietly in the bush.
The two of them exchanged glances from time to time, staring and holding their breath, not daring to make the slightest sound, and looking steadily at the direction from which the sound came.
The voices became clearer and clearer, and several strangely dressed human heads appeared from a clump of branches swaying at the corner of the cliff ahead.
Because of the close distance, you can see clearly: a well-dressed man about thirty years old, with a fat head and big ears, but small eyes. He wears a flat silver ring on his head, and has short and dense black hair like Thousands of steel needles are inserted into the ball-like head. He is wearing a short gray cloth waistcoat, a pair of wide black knee-length trousers, and a pair of black flat-soled soft boots.
He was tall and rugged, with his waistcoat open, revealing his strong bronze chest, and he carried a long ghost-headed sword on his shoulder. At first glance, this man seemed to be vicious. Next to him was a slender middle-aged man. The middle-aged man looked about forty years old, with a pale face. He was dressed in a yellow robe and had his hair tied up in a high bun, but he looked like a Taoist. He was holding a strange foreign weapon in his hand. The weapon was wrapped in a piece of black cloth, but it was hard to tell what it was. Behind these two people, there was actually a tall and slim boy, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with handsome features and a black sheath sword in his hand.
The three people were talking and striding towards this side.
Liu Ruyan saw a few people suddenly appearing and thought to himself, "What are these people doing? Are they also from Hell Gate?" He and Zhao Qingzhu remained calm, hiding their figures, and looked at these people from a distance. Several people.
The fat man with big ears and well-dressed man was talking when he suddenly laughed heartily, reached out and patted the man in yellow on the shoulder, and said: "Brother Taoist, you don't know something now. The master of the sect comes closer." I sent someone to Guanzhong a while ago, saying that I wanted to find an old friend from twenty years ago. Alas, there are always endless grievances and grievances in the rivers and lakes. It’s such a troubled time!" As he said this, he looked up at the sky, and he actually looked worried. .
The man in yellow had a deep look in his eyes and said quietly: "I have also heard about this, but I don't know who the sect master is looking for? It's not a thousand miles to Guanzhong, at least eight hundred miles. I wonder if I can find him?"
The well-dressed man said: "Who knows? Since the sect leader has been living in seclusion outside the fortress for many years, he has rarely been involved in the affairs of the world, and has rarely interacted with people from various sects in the martial arts world. He has always been secretive, and no one knows about him. Why are you looking for that man?" He looked around, then raised his head and stretched.
The three of them walked forward unhurriedly. The young man walking at the end suddenly said: "Second uncle, are we going to buy a lot of things when we go down the mountain this time?"
The well-dressed man laughed, suddenly stopped, reached out and patted the young man on the shoulder, and said: "Hmm, not only do I have to buy a lot of things, but my uncle also takes you to find a girl to play with, do you want to?" As he said that, he smiled even more proudly.
When the young man heard this, his face suddenly turned red, and he said in a huff, "Second uncle, what do you mean by this? I'm not looking for any woman!"
As soon as these words came out, the man in yellow next to him also became amused. He looked at the uncle and nephew joking and couldn't help but sigh and shook his head.
The well-dressed man sighed and said loudly: "I have been in the mountains for several months, but I am bored. There is wine, meat and everything here, but there are no women! It is a rare opportunity to go down the mountain. Wouldn't it be disappointing if I didn't try something new? ! Come on, my second uncle will take you around Yangguan Town today!"
While talking, the three of them had arrived at the bush where Liu Ruyan and Zhao Qingzhu were hiding. The shrubbery is extremely deep, and it is difficult to be discovered if you are crouched in it. In addition, this forest is originally secretive, and few outsiders come here.
Liu Ruyan and Zhao Qingzhu watched quietly through the bushes.
The three people didn't realize that anyone was hiding nearby, and strode straight out of the forest.
The sun is warm, the mountain breeze is blowing gently, and the cicadas on the treetops are chirping non-stop.
Soon, the three people walked out of the forest and walked along the mountain road in the direction of the rock formation. Their figures gradually went further away. When they completely disappeared from sight, Liu Ruyan and Zhao Qingzhu looked around carefully. The man just jumped out from behind the bushes.
Liu Ruyan looked at the direction in which those people were leaving, and said quietly: "Fortunately, they didn't find out. Listening to their conversation, it turned out that they were from the Hell Sect! Brother Zhao, just now they were talking about the Hell Sect's main sect. When someone goes to Guanzhong to look for someone, could it be that he is the master?" His brows furrowed, his eyes flashed, and suddenly there was a hint of deep worry.
Zhao Qingzhu said: "Yes, it sounds like they may be talking about your master, Senior Chu! Now that we have found this place, Senior Chu must be inside. Without further ado, let's go there and have a look! "
Liu Ruyan said vigilantly: "The more we get here, the more careful we have to be! We have no idea what is going on in this hell gate. We must not be reckless until we can find out the truth of the other party!"
Zhao Qingzhu nodded and said: "What Brother Liu said is that the two killers who just disappeared for no reason and the costumes of these three people don't seem to be easy to deal with. What about the other people in the Hell Gate? Awesome character. We just have to improvise!"
The two of them followed the mountain road they came from and returned to the previous three-way intersection.
Zhao Qingzhu looked at the terrain in front of him. Apart from the road they were taking, there were only two roads going east and north.
Zhao Qingzhu pondered and said: "Brother Liu, in your opinion, which road we took to the west just now leads to the gate of hell?" He suddenly realized something, and then asked, "Could it be that , this three-way intersection was originally a enchantment formation? A formation set up by the master here deliberately to deceive others?" He looked at Liu Ruyan with an alert light in his eyes.
Liu Ruyan stared at the three-way intersection intently, then suddenly looked up at the place where the three people appeared in the distance, and suddenly said: "That's right! Brother Zhao, have you noticed that the place where the three people appeared just now, Well, it's the triangle forest opposite. When they came out, they didn't take any of the three roads. What does this mean?" There was a look of surprise in his eyes, as if he suddenly realized something!
Zhao Qingzhu muttered: "Oh, you mean?" He didn't say any more because he saw Liu Ruyan already smiling and nodding towards him.
The two people immediately stretched out their bodies and flew towards the place where the three people came out just now.
That place is not on any mountain road, but it is a dense and deep broad-leaved forest. Although the entire mountain forest is very dense, the triangle forest grows on a long slope with gentle slopes, extending into a deeper hinterland.
The two came to the triangle forest and pushed aside a dense foliage. Their eyes suddenly opened up and a flat path appeared. The trail was heading deep into the mountainside to the west.
Liu Ruyan looked happy and said quietly: "It turns out there is a road here! It seems that this road is the real way to the gate of hell! Brother Zhao, you guessed it right, the three-way intersection just now must be a deception. The real entrance is here! Let’s go!”
The two people couldn't help but rush towards the path covered by dense branches and leaves.
