Kite back to the front hall

With Ji Huayuan's lightness skills in her body, she escaped from the monitoring of the man in black, and the rest of the journey went very smoothly.Almost within a quarter of an hour, he had already arrived at the foot of Qi Zhaoshan.Under the pitch-black night, there was no movement on Mount Qizhao, it was eerily quiet.Among the three linked mountain ranges of Dongqi, Xiqi and Qizhao, Qizhao Mountain is the most precipitous, like a sharp sword inserted between Dongqi and Xiqi, stretching nearly a thousand miles from north to south.And the road leading to the mausoleum on the ridge also passes through a natural rift valley, which spans a hundred feet wide and can only be reached by three narrow ladders.If you don't take the ladder, it is impossible for a large force to enter the ridge.Even a person with outstanding martial arts would have to go through a lot of hardships to climb over the cliff from the other side of Qi Zhao.

Ji Huayuan explored around the outside of the foot of the mountain, and the surrounding bushes left a lot of stampede marks, the angles of the branches breaking were very unnatural, and the bark that was crushed by the feet was occasionally found on the trunks.Looking at those traces, Ji Huayuan's heart sank slowly. These are not the traces that would be left after going into and out of the mountains. It is very obvious that someone has fought here.

It seems that Mao Qi and the others have encountered some troubles.Ji Huayuan frowned tightly, quickened her pace and silently groped towards the mountain.

The forest was so quiet that it made people feel hairy, and a few crows that flew by occasionally croaked loudly, adding a bit of weirdness to the perilous jungle.Ji Huayuan's eyes widened, and the hairs all over his body stood on end, sensing the disturbance around him.

However, there was nothing. After Ji Huayuan chased the traces of the fight into the dense forest, he found in despair that not only had he gradually lost the traces that could be traced, but he had gradually stepped into the darkest place in the forest.The trees above the head were almost overlapping each other, and the caves and cliffs protruding all around covered all the light, and it became darker and darker as we walked, it would not be an exaggeration to say that we couldn't see our fingers.

This Qi Zhaoshan, as early as a few days ago, when everyone was in the Tanglu Palace, he came to climb several times alone, and drew a very detailed map, although it cannot be said that every inch of the land has been measured with his feet, But at least he can guarantee that he will never get lost on this mountain.However, after all, he missed a little bit. He didn't consider the situation at night, and he didn't think that he would fall into this situation where there was almost no light, and he had to rely on his hands to even take a step forward.

In the dark forest, he could only see the outlines of the trees within three feet. If his eyes fell on the ground, he couldn't even see the thorns and shrubs at his feet, it was all black one slice.In such a situation where the eyes cannot see, the hearing becomes unprecedentedly sensitive, and all other senses are excited. Ji Huayuan can almost feel every goosebump floating on her body, and feel the erection of every single hair.The wind passed through the mountains and forests, and there was only the sound of branches crashing. Suddenly, Ji Huayuan's heart felt cold and weird. Almost subconsciously, his Luohong came out of its sheath and struck at the ancient tree behind him!

Just listen to the bang!The two swords collided!In the next second, Ji Huayuan turned around and withdrew the falling rainbow sword. The long sword was hanging at his feet. Ji Huayuan frowned and looked at the figure jumping from the tree, and asked, "Why are you?"

Mao Qi gave a wry smile, put away his sword and walked over: "I didn't expect it to be you. You have been hiding for a long time in vain, and you are scared!"

"What about the others? Why did you place an order?"

Mao Qi coughed twice, and said in a low voice: "It's like this. After we broke up, I went back to the foot of the mountain to find our people. Originally, the task everyone received was to disperse and clear the rangers on the periphery of Dongqi Mountain. Uncle's person is still Yan Cunji's person. The only requirement of the prince is to not reveal his identity, so the brothers are scattered. When I went down the mountain, it was not yet the agreed rendezvous time, and I didn't dare to openly issue a secret signal. I can only wait .”

"Wait?!" Ji Huayuan frowned in disbelief. He tried his best to buy time for everyone, but Mao Qi was waiting for the brothers to meet at the foot of the mountain?

"I can't help it..." Mao Qi sighed: "The prince said, but he didn't reveal his identity. Fortunately, the brothers went down the mountain one after another, and we hurried back. As soon as we reached the foot of the mountain, we met Here comes the ambush."

Ji Huayuan sighed deeply, and nodded: "Since Yan Cunji made up his mind from the beginning not to let Beitang Dynasty go, it is natural that he has ambushed his own people in Qi Zhaoshan long ago."

"Yes. Fortunately, there were not many people who encountered us. It was just a team of 12. Anyway, there were many brothers, and their martial arts were no worse than wolf cubs. They were quickly eliminated, and only a few brothers were affected. A little hurt."

Ji Huayuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, he could almost foresee what Mao Qi was going to say next.Sure enough, Mao Qi sighed, and said angrily: "It's also our fault for not thinking carefully. I didn't expect that Yan Cunji might have other ambushes on this Qizhao Mountain. Our exchange of war was too noisy, and we didn't go forward for long. , attracted a lot of wolf cubs to chase..." When Mao Qi said this, he punched the tree next to him hard, and he really didn't know how Yan Cunji did it. Send so many people to this Qizhao Mountain!We knew that we were invincible, but we thought that the foot of the mountain was like this, and we didn't know what the situation was like at the prince's place, so we were even more anxious.Later, Mao Da and I decided to divide the troops. I took a few people to lure the enemy, and the rest hurried to the place where the prince was. "

"Failed?"

"No, we succeeded." Mao Qi's voice suddenly sank: "The price is that I was the only one who survived the wolf cub's pursuit. I had the right idea and crashed into this dark forest. It’s just a lucky escape. What a fucking bad luck!” After Mao Qi scolded this sentence fiercely, he sighed again and said: “Don’t be too discouraged, the remaining brothers should have almost arrived at the Rift Valley, I believe it will be soon. The prince will be found soon! The one who sent troops to Dongqi this time is the brothers of Fengying, and there are fifteen teams from the Guard Bureau beside the prince, so I believe there will be no danger in a short time."

"Yeah." Ji Huayuan nodded: "But we still have to meet them as soon as possible."

"That's no problem." Mao Qi finally smiled, and he said, "I've been wandering in this forest alone for a long time, and I can take you out. The reason why this dense forest is dark is because it happened to be surrounded by a The cliff is covered, we are now on the edge, and we can reach the place of light in a short distance. I believe it is not far from the main force."

After listening for a long time, Ji Huayuan finally heard some exciting news, he grabbed Luo Hong tightly and nodded, "Okay, let's hurry up!"

Brother Fengying's cattle are fully exposed in this dark mountain forest. Although Ji Huayuan has sharp eyes and ears and quick movements, he really lacks actual combat experience.The brothers of Fengying were originally selected from the elite of the East Gate. After entering Fengying, they participated in many actual mountain combat drills. They are very familiar with mediating in this mountain forest.Mao Qi hardly needs to fumble, relying on the feeling under his feet, he can move forward smoothly in this dark mountain forest, as agile as a mountain leopard, not affected by the slightest darkness.Ji Huayuan grabbed the scabbard that Mao Qi handed over and reluctantly followed him, and the two really got out of this dark forest very quickly.

The moonlight outside was still very faint, but compared to this black forest of death, it was much better.Ji Huayuan squinted her eyes to roughly judge the direction, and was relieved to find that the two of them were almost touching the edge of the rift.

Mao Qi put away his sword, and he and Ji Huayuan hurried on the road, carefully hiding their whereabouts along the way, and finally saw a stone carving mark on the stone wall at the entrance of a cave approaching the rift.

Mao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Great, the brothers have arrived here safely."

Ji Huayuan nodded: "What about now?"

Mao Qi reached out and groped along the crevice of the stone, pulled out a corner of his clothes hidden in the crevice, sniffed it, and said, "They probably didn't have a smooth road, they should have just passed here."

"Well, let's hurry up, the cliff is difficult to climb, and I'm afraid that Yan Cunji will send someone to ambush on it and deal with you with rolling stones, we have to make a plan together." Ji Huayuan wanted to continue on the way, but was caught Qi grabs it.

Under the dim light, Mao Qi's complexion suddenly became ugly: "You didn't tell me that you want everyone to climb the cliff and cross the chasm."

Ji Huayuan's heart turned cold for a moment, and he said slowly, almost in a daze: "You want them to walk over the overpass?"

"I didn't say it, but it should be so." Mao Qi looked as if he had hit a ghost. He shook his head vigorously and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The overpass is made of fine steel and black iron, and the sword can't stop. Even if Yan Cunji wants to Setting up an ambush may not be able to achieve the goal. If his men set up an ambush on the other side of the bridge in advance, our brothers can also deal with it."

Ji Huayuan shook his head slowly, his clear eyes suddenly became lax, he knew in his heart that it was too late.

"That's not what worries me."

"What is that..." Mao Qi became emotional, but before he could finish asking, the sound of explosion filled the whole world in an instant. There was a buzzing in his head, and his eyes were all white for a while.

Mao Qi subconsciously pushed Ji Huayuan down hard, his head vibrated as if a string was so taut that it was about to break, and he made a single cold sound, as if he wanted to cut someone's head open .

The sound of the explosion lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and it was only after a long time after the explosion stopped that Ushichi gradually regained his blurred vision.He got up all of a sudden, the sand on his body rolling off.The whole world was abnormally quiet, Mao Qi suddenly yelled loudly, but his ears were empty, there was no sound at all.

Ji Huayuan slowly sat up straight under Mao Qi, he glanced at Mao Qi with dead eyes, and then turned his head.

In the direction of the ladder, rumbling black smoke is rolling out, and the black smoke slowly dissipates, leaving only an empty chasm.

Not an inch of iron left.None of the dozens of brothers in Fengying was spared, and all their bones were buried in the mighty Qizhao Mountain cliff.
