Chapter 214: Village in the Forest
Everyone walked forward for a while, and not long after, the spies in front finally brought back useful information.
"Hall Master, there is a problem ahead."
An older spy returned to Wang Lin and said solemnly.
"oh?"
Wang Lin raised his eyebrows.
"None of the pathfinding rats I sent out came back. It looks like there should be a maze-like formation ahead."
The spy speculated.
"maze?"
Wang Lin heard this, thought for a moment, then quickly turned around and walked towards the back.
Not long after, Wang Lin came to Ding Yi and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ding Yi's expression did not change when he heard this. He waved his hand and asked Wang Lin to continue exploring. He came to Yao Xiangxiang in the back and said with a smile:
"Sir Yao, my spies found that there may be a maze of Qijue Palace ahead. I wonder if you have a solution?"
When Yao Xiangxiang heard this, she thought for a moment, and then said to Long Shuiying next to her:
"Junior sister Long, just go and have a look."
Long Shuiying nodded when he heard this, and then said coldly to Ding Yi:
"lead the way."
Ding Yi looked at Long Shuiying and hugged his fists with a smile. He was not dissatisfied with her cold attitude and led the woman forward.
When they arrived, the spy saw that his sect leader was actually bringing an adult from the Yin and Yang Palace. He was a little nervous at the moment, but Ding Yi patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Take Master Long to the place you mentioned."
The spy responded quickly, and then walked forward with Long Shuiying.
Long Shuiying followed the spies for about five or six miles, and suddenly realized something was wrong and stopped.
"Sir, ahead is the place where my explorer rats disappeared."
At this moment, the spy pointed to the area ahead and said.
Long Shuiying did not speak when he heard the words, but took out a disk engraved with many strange runes from his arms, then pointed the disk towards the dense forest in front, and then muttered something.
Streams of invisible evil spirits followed Long Shuiying's palm and sank into the disc in her hand. Then the disc trembled slightly and made a strange whistling sound.
The whistling sound lasted for about three or four breaths, and suddenly a bright light shot out from the disc and rushed into the dense forest in front of it and disappeared without knowing where it went.
When Long Shuiying saw this scene, he immediately stopped chanting, and then stood there and waited quietly.
After about half a cup of tea, the light and shadow unexpectedly appeared again, flew out from the dense forest in front, and instantly submerged into the disk in Long Shuiying's hand.
Seeing this, Long Shuiying smiled slightly, and then waited on the spot.
Not long after, the large army behind them also arrived.
Yao Xiangxiang walked to Long Shuiying and asked:
"How about it?"
"The Tianji Ecstasy Formation of Qijue Palace."
Long Shuiying said.
"Junior Sister Long is indeed amazing, I leave it to you."
After hearing this, Yao Xiangxiang patted the latter's shoulder with a smile, but Long Shuiying did not speak, but narrowed his eyes. The disc in his hand once again vibrated at a high frequency, and then an invisible ripple spread out instantly.
The next moment, the green dense forest in front of everyone suddenly changed its appearance and turned into a dry swamp.
While the environment was being eliminated, there was also a smell mixed with the smell of decay, which immediately caused the expressions of everyone standing at the front to change.
"Why does it stink so much!"
Sun Tao covered his nose and couldn't help but say.
At this moment, in the mud at the feet in front of everyone, there were several rat corpses lying there, and a large number of white maggots were crawling out of the bodies and falling on the mud.
"It's my explorer rats!"
The spy looked at the scene in front of him in surprise and exclaimed.
Unexpectedly, these pathfinding rats were involved in this enchantment formation. After only a moment, most of the corpses were already rotted. It is unimaginable that if a person accidentally walked into it, he would not be much better!
People in Yin Yang Palace seemed to be used to this scene. Yao Xiangxiang nodded excitedly and shouted to Ding Yi:
"Let your people continue, the territory ahead must be the Qijue Palace!"
Ding Yi glanced at the woman upon hearing this, and then waved to Wang Lin over there.
Seeing this, Wang Lin gritted his teeth and went into battle himself. He took out the poison-avoiding pill from his arms and stuffed it into his mouth, and began to move forward along the periphery of the swamp.
"Crack!"
After walking several hundred meters, Wang Lin crushed another dried skull, and his expression became more solemn at the same time.
The further we go, the more bones there are on the ground.
At first, Wang Lin thought it was a pedestrian who accidentally entered the formation and was poisoned to death, but now it seems that it is not that simple.
Ding Yi, who was following behind, obviously also noticed this, but his expression remained as usual and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from under the swamp beside everyone, and quickly wrapped around a member of the Wanxiang Sect, and then pulled him into the swamp.
"Ah!! Gudududu!!"
The man just screamed, and then disappeared completely, and the process was so fast that even the gang members nearby didn't react.
"There's something in the swamp!"
The sudden change made everyone look shocked and shouted loudly.
"Damn it! Move aside! Defend!"
Wang Lin saw this and shouted loudly.
Fortunately, these people were all elite gang members selected by Ding Yi. Although casualties began to occur, the formation was not chaotic, but quickly recovered from the panic.
Then, everyone experienced many difficulties such as poisonous insects and smoke, and finally walked another seven or eight miles before passing through this swamp.
After a lot of trouble, everyone in the Wanxiang Gate was injured, and there were even several casualties.
From beginning to end, Ding Yi did not make a move, he just followed steadily behind.
Such a scene made Yao Xiangxiang behind him look disdainful.
"This sect leader is so timid, I really don't know how he became the leader!"
Long Shuiying next to him also shook his head slightly, expressing his disappointment in Ding Yi.
I thought this Li Baozheng was different, but now it seems that he is just so-so.
At this moment, a bird suddenly cried out from the front.
This was the signal of the scout, indicating that an important target had been found.
Hearing this sound, the people of Yinji Palace all tensed up, no longer as lazy as before, and began to move forward quickly.
When they caught up with the people of Wanxiang Gate, they found that at the end of the swamp, there was actually a village!
It was hard to imagine that in this dense forest surrounded by towering trees, there was actually a village located here.
This village was built on a huge flat ground, with about forty or fifty houses, and in the open space in the village, there were many villagers drying food.
Wang Lin and others were climbing on the big trees outside the village at this moment, and they were also surprised and doubtful when they saw the scene in front of them.
These villagers did not look like the demons of Qijue Palace at all, but according to the marks on the map, they were almost here.
So, Wang Lin could only come to Ding Yi again and ask him what he meant.
