Chapter Fifty Another Path
"Junior Brother Xiaojiu, if not..."
Seeing that Daoren Jia looked at me worriedly, before he could finish speaking, I reached out to stop him, and silently carried the Xuan Iron Sword on his body, groaning with groaning. The torture and pain deep in his soul was simply unimaginable to a normal person.
"No need, thank you for thinking about me, but I can't drag everyone down. I can still bear this pain!"
I grinned barely and smiled, but soon I waved my sleeves to wipe off a cold sweat from my forehead, and gritted my teeth and endured it.
"Oh! That's it, let's hurry up and go on the road. If Xiao Gui's father can't wait at home and comes out to search again, we may miss him. Well, Junior Brother Xiaojiu, take Xiao Gui forward, I'll take the uncle."
As he said that, Daoren Jia helped his master up without hesitation and carried it on his back.
"Then... I'll replace my senior brother in a while."
I nodded silently, hesitated for a moment, then took the little ghost's hand and walked out of the cave quickly. As soon as I stepped out of the cave, I sensed a bit cold and cold breath, which rushed to my face. Unexpectedly, at night, the yin energy became even more intense.
Not far away, there is a hill-shaped grave mountain, standing there with a gloomy momentum. Seeing these grave mountains, I was frightened and said hurriedly: "Senior Brother, these grave mountains may be strange, we must be more careful!"
"Well, Junior Brother Xiaojiu is that whenever we encounter a grave mountain, we will stay away from it!"
Daoren Jia said this, but soon frowned again: "Junior Brother Xiaojiu, for some reason, I always feel a little weird..."
"Senior brother, isn't this very calm? Why didn't I feel anything strange?"
I glanced around in surprise, and then turned to look at my senior brother, Daoren Jia.
"Maybe...maybe it's because it's too quiet. Logically speaking, this kind of place is a Jedi, and it's impossible to be so peaceful, haha! Or maybe I've thought too much..."
Daoren Jia smiled bitterly and shook his head, then continued to move forward. I responded to Daoren Jia with a comforting smile, held the little ghost's hand, and continued to open the way in front.
"Huh?!Brother, look at the smoke coming out of the mountain. Is there anyone cooking in the mountain?"
Suddenly, the little ghost hurriedly pointed to the top of a grave mountain and said in astonishment.
"Um?"
The originally tense nerve was suddenly almost broken by the little ghost's words. I suddenly looked up and looked. As the little ghost said, there was indeed a wisp of black air at the top of the grave, but it was not a cooked food, so... it was clearly a corpse air!
"Corpsy Qi?! Could it be that the corpse pressed under the grave mountain will be transformed into a corpse?!"
Daoren Jia shouted in shock and accelerated his pace: "Quick! We must leave here as soon as possible. I can be sure now that my senses will not be wrong. These graves must be extremely strange. If we don't leave here, we may...it will be difficult to get out..."
"Senior Brother! But the grave mountain is endless, row by row, I don't know how far it will be to reach the end, and...and look!"
Halfway through, I pointed to the top of a group of graves in front of me and shouted: "Those graves are also experiencing corpse energy, and their momentum is soaring. It is not difficult to imagine what dangerous situation we are in..."
"Big brother! I know there is a shortcut to bypass these mountains, not far ahead. Come with me!"
The little ghost suddenly held my hand and my eyes lit up. I was worthy of being a child in the mountains. I had inexplicably become our guide. Opportunities and fate... Things in the world are indeed wonderful. If the little ghost had not separated from my father, we would not have been told by the little ghost that there was another shortcut.
"Little devil! You said before that this place was originally very close to the valley entrance, why did we look at it like this but couldn't see the end? Could it be that you deceived us?!"
Daoren Jia glared at the little ghost with a slight angrily.
"Big brother, that uncle is so fierce!"
The little ghost shrank toward me and then retorted: "I didn't lie to you. I could have left the valley after walking for another three hours. On weekdays, my father and I walked three or four hundred miles of mountain roads. Compared to those, this is really close..."
Looking at the little ghost's aggrieved gaze, I smiled bitterly, but when I thought about it taking three hours, my mind suddenly buzzed... "Then tell me, how far can you go in three hours on weekdays? For example, how many miles and mountains are there from the valley now?"
"It's about a hundred miles... Anyway, it's very close. Brother, there's a small road not far ahead. My father and I used to walk."
The little ghost said indifferently and pointed me at the road ahead. When I heard the hundred-mile mountain road he said, my mind suddenly buzzed again. If I were on the flat ground, I would be exhausted if I walked a hundred-mile mountain road, let alone the mountain road. No wonder I had to walk for three hours.
I don't think this strange place is rare even if I walk for six hours...
But Daoren Jia kept targeting Xiao Gui along the way. Thinking of him protecting me and my master everywhere, I had to helplessly pretend not to hear it.
"Little kid, since there is a mountain road of ten thousand miles, how did you, a seven or eight-year-old child, walk? Aren't you tired?!"
Daoren Jia stared at the little devil again.
"Hell...Uncle, you'll know later. In fact, there are many flat roads to walk in the mountains, but you outsiders don't know."
The little ghost turned around and smiled happily, looking at his innocent expression, I also smiled.
Sure enough, after walking a short distance, I saw a winding path appearing in front of me. I turned around and looked at Dao Ren Jia. With such a dark place, there is such a shortcut to point out such a little ghost. It is really a good fortune for me to wait. As long as I can stay away from these graves, I agree with it!
From a distance, it looks like a winding hill road, but when I walk up, I feel that the path is particularly flat and there are no bumps or bumps on ordinary mountain roads. Not only that, we can also smell the fragrance of flowers and the pure smell of grass, and the air slowly becomes fresh. Seeing this, I laughed excitedly: "Senior Brother, maybe in such an environment, we will be able to recover our cultivation soon!"
"yes……"
Daoren Jia also showed a rare smile, nodded, and said, "It's only a hundred feet away, but it's like two worlds. It's such a rare shortcut. Little kid, you are really our lucky star!"
"Uncle, my dad said that this shortcut is the smoothest road in Jiulong Mountain. You must have never seen it before, haha..."
Hearing the praise from his senior brother Jia Daoren, the little ghost suddenly brought out his father proudly and laughed naively.
"You're not bad. Although I am also near the foot of Jiulong Mountain, I'm afraid it's a long way from here. I've lived at Jiulong Mountain. I've never seen such a flat and comfortable mountain road. Little kid, we all rely on Jiulong Mountain to survive. Speaking of which, we are still neighbors in the mountain...hahaha!"
As the topic was talked about, Daoren Jia became much more cheerful, and he became more and more excited as he talked to the little ghost.
From a distance, I looked back and couldn't see the graves. The strange valley was also left behind by us. I breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved, but... the evil spirit in my body was still not cleared, and the severe pain was not relieved at all. Every time I took a step, I had to grit my teeth and persevere.
