Zhao Zenian said it was nothing, but he sighed secretly in his heart. The Misty Forest really deserved its reputation. He heard Qian Fan who was next to Su Yanshou mention it a long time ago, saying that it is a place that can dig out a person's deepest secrets by creating illusions. .

It turns out that it really can.

His biggest secret is his original identity and his hatred.

Zhao Zenian stood up from the ground and felt pain in the back of his neck, which shows how urgent the situation was and how much force Gu Ye used.

He walked aside, staring blankly at the dark misty forest with a gloomy atmosphere in a daze, also for the sake of calm thinking.

Gu Ye handed the firewood to Qin Pei, and stepped on the grass leaves to walk to him: "Going in can confirm many things, for example, there are no living things in this forest, and there is no miasma that we were worried about at first, and that Misty phantom, I think it has something to do with a person's mind."

Zhao Zenian's eyes flickered slightly.

Gu Ye turned to look at him: "When I went in, I didn't think about anything, but you must have something on your mind, so you will be easily confused."

Zhao Zenian remained silent.

"Zenian, have you ever been hurt by someone?"

Zhao Zenian then turned to look at him: "Why do you say that?"

Gu Ye looked at him with a surprised look: "What do you think! Before you pinched me, you kept shouting that I would kill you, and I would definitely take revenge. Just wait and see! Such words, Isn't it only for enemies?"

"Yes, I admit it."

"Then why don't you take revenge? With your identity and ability today, unless the enemy is stronger, otherwise with your habits, it's time to do it!"

Just as Zhao Zenian was about to ask "How do you know I haven't taken revenge yet", he understood after a little thought that if he had already taken revenge, he would not have fallen into a nightmare.

"I haven't thought of a way to teach them a lesson." Zhao Zenian's eyes became dark: "I want them to repay me double for what hurt me back then!"

Gu Ye froze for a moment, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

After a while, he turned his head and said: "When I carried you out, the faces of those three people changed color instantly, and they rushed up almost at the same time, almost throwing me to the ground too!"

"Huh?" Zhao Zenian looked back at him suspiciously, not understanding what he wanted to express.

"I just want to say that the second young master's concern for you is beyond my expectation. Let's not talk about it for now. Feng Yueyi, I thought he had an unusual attitude towards you in Longdong Village before you woke up. I will try my best to take care of you, if I don't need to boil water for dinner, I will never leave you."

Gu Ye looked at the last person: "That Qin Pei is the strangest one! He took a step after he knew you, and seeing that anxious expression, he was no less worried than Feng Yueyi for you. Do you think it's strange?"

"I noticed it a long time ago." Zhao Zenian also looked over: "I checked him secretly, and there was nothing suspicious about him. I think he knew me before, but you also saw it when he was in Yongyi City. The reaction wasn't like it's ever been seen with me."

Gu Ye nodded: "That's right, he followed Feng Yueyi to the inn, and because of Feng Yueyi, he was against you all the time... Think about it carefully, when did his attitude start to change?"

Zhao Zenian shook his head: "I've thought about it many times, but I can't think of it at all."

"Why don't you ask him yourself?"

"I asked. He is very cunning. He either keeps silent or changes the subject."

Gu Ye laughed for a while, then patted Zhao Zenian on the shoulder: "Then you'd better be careful, don't look so concerned about you now, maybe at any time, I'll give you a cold knife in the back!"

There was a village three miles away from the misty forest. Qin Pei used Qinggong to borrow noodles and a pot there. Feng Yueyi cooked the noodles, then tore up the dry food in the bag and threw them into the pot.

After eating, they all felt a lot warmer.

Qin Pei tinkered with the bonfire with a stick: "It's cold today, but it's not bad. At least there are fewer mosquitoes at night. Otherwise, we'll sleep hard here!"

Zhao Zenian remembered Gu Ye's words and said, "Actually speaking, this matter has nothing to do with you. You should go to the village to borrow a night. There is no need to suffer with us."

Qin Pei smiled and said, "Tsk! I'm starting to find excuses to drive us away again, isn't it? Isn't it just a juju fruit? Although I hope my skills can be improved to a higher level, I won't be a villain." Heart, let you take the risk to rush in, I just wait to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Gu Ye didn't see his real intention for a while, and explained honestly: "Young Master Qin, we didn't mean that."

"I know, I won't leave anyway." Qin Pei took out a thick cloak from his bag, sat down under a tree, and wrapped the cloak around his body again: "Tomorrow, I will go in too."

Everyone else was startled.

Shi Jin took the opportunity and said, "I want to go in too!"

Feng Yueyi was not to be outdone: "Then I will go in naturally!"

Zhao Zenian was very annoyed: "You are all rushing to die, aren't you? Are you afraid that if I am not careful, you will all be strangled to death?"

Qin Pei said: "I understand your concern for us, but please also understand our concern for you. You are inside, we don't know anything outside, we can only be anxious. It is so painful, it is better to go in Let's face it together!"

Shi Jin clapped her hands: "Well said!"

Zhao Zenian glanced at him coldly and said, "Yes, you are free people, I can't control you, but Shi Jin, you have to stay outside."

Shi Jin was cornered: "If you don't let me in, I'll sneak behind. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

Gu Ye finally understood how painful and entangled Zhao Zenian was when he was traveling with these three people in those days, and now he also wants to say: There are too many people, it is troublesome!

After staring blankly for a long time, Zhao Zenian gave up first: "Okay, whatever you like."

It's bad luck for me to stand on you, if you are injured or missing arms and legs, the old pavilion master will deal with me in the end, then I can only admit it!

After breakfast the next day, the five of them went in together. As usual, Gu Ye led the way. Zhao Zenian held the cloth strip around his waist with one hand and observed the surrounding situation. A cloth strip was also tied around his waist. , and Shi Jin's arm was bound at the other end.

Qin Pei and Feng Yueyi grabbed the cloth strips around Shi Jin's waist, and the five of them never left each other.

Perhaps because the main task changed from finding Ju Zhu Guo to protecting the second young master, Zhao Zenian became more focused and was not confused by the overlapping smoke like yesterday.

I don't know how long it took, the trees changed from dense to sparse, and then the field of vision opened up, and a huge slope appeared. The slope was covered with slender leaves half a meter high, and the other side of the slope was still smoky and lush. dense.

Gu Ye asked in a daze, "Could it be that this is the Huan Yin Valley?"

Qin Pei said "ah": "No way? Does this look like a valley?"

Zhao Zenian remembered that Yaowang Valley also had such a huge slope, and different herbs could be picked from the top and bottom, so he immediately believed it: "Maybe it is really."

Feng Yueyi asked: "Then, which way should we go next, should we go up or down, or cross this slope and go to the opposite woods?"

Gu Ye pointed directly at the top: "Go there, Su... I heard that the green leaves grow on it."

So, they climbed up, but the green grass on the slope was really dense, and they needed to push it away with their hands again and again to take a step smoothly.

After climbing for a while, he didn't even stand upright, and everyone was sweating profusely. Zhao Zenian observed the grass while climbing.

Perhaps this time it was a test given to them by God, and they climbed all the way to the top of the slope, only to find the green leaves that are said to have a wonderful effect when taken together with juju fruit.

Shi Jin was paralyzed on the ground and refused to get up, Qin Pei was shaking his fan loudly, and Feng Yueyi took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Zhao Zenian and Gu Ye looked left and right in the middle, and the former worried: "Except for us, I didn't see a single living thing. Are you sure that the person holding the vermilion fruit really came in?"

Gu Ye fanned his face with his hands: "Sure! Someone saw it with his own eyes. He guarded outside the forest for two days. When he saw that person didn't come out, he went home!"

"Then tell me, could he have found the leaf and left by another way?"

Gu Ye hesitated: "I don't know either. It's really hard to see how big the misty forest is. Since ancient times, no one has dared to step here at will."

Zhao Zenian threw the burden on the ground: "I'm going crazy!"

"Don't be crazy, don't be crazy, look there!" Gu Ye pointed to a low spot and said, "Does it look like someone walked by?"

Zhao Zenian looked around, and the three people on the ground heard it, got up with a grunt, and looked over together.

The long grass there has been pushed aside for a short distance, and the farther end looks like a grass pit has been dug out by someone from a distance.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Taking a closer look, it turned out that there was a person lying there, wearing a dark blue robe, his face was yellow and haggard, his lips were cracked and bloody, and he was holding a handful of green leaves that Zhao Zenian and the others had just found.

Gu Ye squatted down to check carefully, then looked up: "Dead, no food, no water, exhausted and died."

He searched for the dead man, found a small square box, opened it, and found a large wax-sealed pill wrapped in yellow satin: "This should be Juzhuo."

Gu Ye raised her hand and handed it over: "It's finished..."

Zhao Zenian finished packing the box and looked at the dead body on the ground: "Thanks to him for causing me to come into this ghostly place, but the dead are the worst, so let's bury him!"

Gu Ye chopped down a tree as thick as an arm, cut it into several pieces with a sword, and then sharpened one end. Several people used this as a shovel and shoveled out a large pit.

Qin Pei donated the cloak as a shroud, wrapped the dead body in it, and filled it with soil.

Shi Jin pointed to the road that the dead man opened by himself, and said, "Where does he want to go, is that where he came from?"
