Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

Chapter 67 Dangerous Land
Bah!

The crisp sound of horse hooves echoed in the mountains and forests. After more than a day of marching, Su Jie and his party of dozens of people moved away from the mountain gate of Guiling Palace and entered the outer area.

"That's Yunwu Mountain."

Su Jie was riding on a horned horse, holding a map in his hand and looking at a mountain more than 6,000 meters high.

This mountain is so high that clouds and mist linger on the mountainside. The mountain is majestic and majestic, like a brave beast squatting down and looking down at the world. From time to time, there are terrifying screams coming from the mountain.

There are two golden-winged Luan birds, male and female, living in this mountain. Their strength is terrifying. Once the leader of the Ghost Ridge Palace came to lead a team to encircle and suppress them, but they were helpless with these two spiritual beasts.

Fortunately, these two golden-winged phoenixes have a gentle temperament and have been staying near Yunwu Mountain on weekdays, so they can be considered at peace with Guiling Palace.

As long as the disciples do not intrude into their territory, there is generally no danger.

After walking for dozens of miles, Su Jie and others came to a strange area.

The ground ahead was scorched, black, and yellow, with dark potholes scattered in a messy manner. The smelly black smoke curled up, and strange shadows loomed in the potholes.

There is also a strange flower growing here. The flower is as red as blood. When it blooms, it is half a meter in diameter. It is extremely delicate and beautiful.

"Dismount and pass quietly."

With a cold face, Pei Hai got off the horse, held the reins, held the horse's mouth, and walked slowly into this strange area.

The disciples followed the instructions one after another, holding the reins and passing carefully.

"Diying Cave, one of the top ten dangerous places in Ghost Ridge Palace."

It was also the first time for Su Jie to come here. In the rolling mountains where the Ghost Ridge Palace is located, the Shadow Cave in front of him can be said to be famous because it is one of the main ways from the Ghost Ridge Palace to the outside world. Over the years, countless lives have been lost here, and Su Jie has often seen human bones half-buried in the soil.

"White Walkers, there are White Walkers behind us."

When everyone was halfway to the Shadow Cave, an accident occurred at this moment, and several strange ghosts appeared in the field of vision.

The disciples began to be confused. When they saw the White Walkers appearing, many disciples looked fearful.

Some people subconsciously speed up their pace, but end up missing a step and half-stepping into the pothole. The falling rocks make a sound, and the black smoke in the pothole changes immediately.

Black smoke surged out, as if it had life, and wrapped around this disciple like a living creature.

In the black smoke, wisps of black hair-like hyphae spread and poured into the disciple's eyes, mouth, nose, ears and other parts. His body was covered with spores, and he was then dragged into the pit and shouted. There was no time to send it out.

A minute later, a new pothole appeared next to it, green stems and vines grew out, and bright red buds were in bud.

Through the holes in the ground, the disciple who had been swallowed before was already wrapped in white mycelium, and roots were drilled out of the eyes and mouth, becoming fertilizer for the flowers.

Seeing this scene, the remaining disciples' hands and feet were cold and they no longer dared to make any move.

Fortunately, those strange ghosts were also afraid of the dangerous area of ​​​​Shadow Cave, but they just wandered outside and did not break in.

Otherwise, if there is too much noise when fighting here, both sides will be swallowed up by the Earth Shadow Cave.

Because they didn't dare to make any noise, everyone moved very slowly, and it took them half an hour to get out of the Shadow Cave completely.

After leaving the Earth Shadow Cave and walking for another two hours, the sky was almost getting dark.

Su Jie and his horse team of dozens of people found a flat and gentle land, tied the horn-scaled horses to a tree, and began to take out tents and set up camp.

Under night!
Most of the disciples who had been marching for a whole day had fallen asleep from exhaustion under the darkness of night.

Only a few disciples who took turns to watch the night sat around the fire to warm themselves up.

At this time, the climate has entered winter. Although it has not started snowing yet, the temperature is already very low, and the cold night is extremely unbearable. "With this damn weather, if I hadn't had a mission, I would still be sleeping in a warm bed right now."

"Who says it's not the case? A brother died just over a day after we came out. Later, we left the Guiling Palace territory. If those righteous sects find out, I don't know how many people will die."

The disciples were warming themselves by the fire while complaining, but they did not relax their vigilance. They secretly set up many sound traps, and at the same time, their eyes were constantly scanning around to monitor the movements around the camp.

After all, we are in a dangerous wilderness, and not being vigilant will only harm others and ourselves.

However, even if these disciples were so vigilant, accidents still happened.

While the disciples were talking, in the darkness that was not covered by the fire, several tall and faint shadows were approaching in the dark.

Click!

A disciple heard the noise and was about to turn around to check, when he saw several White Walkers coming out of the darkness.

"Enemy attack."

The disciples on duty yelled in fear. They didn't expect that with so many people in their team, there would actually be White Walkers coming to attack them at night.

The screams shocked the entire camp, the fire flickered, and the disciples who were sleeping in armor immediately got out of the tent and saw the silhouette of the White Walkers.

"A bunch of trash, they can't even serve as a sentry."

Pei Haibing's face was frosty. He did not deal with the White Walkers immediately, but instead found the disciple on duty.

Of the five disciples who were originally on duty, there were still two survivors.

"Will you be keeping vigil tonight?"

Pei Haibing looked over.

The two disciples looked like they were surviving a disaster and nodded repeatedly: "Senior Brother Pei, we don't know how the White Walkers got close. The defense lines outside have been prepared, but the result is ugh!"

Before they could explain anything, Pei Haibing had already taken action.

A pair of slender white palms reached out like lightning, instantly crushing the two disciples' necks and strangling all subsequent explanations.

"Trash only makes excuses for itself."

After throwing away the two disciples who were still staring at death, Pei Hai said in a cold voice: "After killing these strange ghosts, why are you still standing there?"

The disciples hurriedly turned their heads, not daring to look again, and concentrated on dealing with the White Walkers. Gu worms were summoned one by one, and they attacked towards the White Walkers.

There are four White Walkers appearing this time, and the number of disciples is more than fifty, which is more than ten times the number of White Walkers.

Although the White Walkers were powerful in combat, the disparity in numbers between the two sides was too great. The disciples gained the upper hand after the battle. The two White Walkers were soon bitten to pieces by Gu insects, and the toxins entered their bodies, causing them to die.

When the other two ghosts saw that something was not going well, they immediately turned around and ran away. They jumped into a hole outside the forest and disappeared in an instant.

The disciples who surrounded and killed the White Walkers looked at each other in shock. Looking at the hole in front of them, no one dared to jump down and chase them.

Su Jie walked out of the crowd, waved the torch in the cave, twirled the fresh soil near the cave, and said: "These are the strange ghosts that appeared in the Shadow Cave during the day. They are very smart and have been chasing them. Our traces followed us, and we also learned to dig tunnels in the Diying Cave, and in this way we approached us without anyone noticing."

As soon as these words came out, the disciples looked a little strangely, astonished at Su Jie's courage. These words were tantamount to slapping Pei Haibing in the face.

Just now, Pei Haibing killed two disciples on duty indiscriminately. It turned out that they were not negligent, but they did not expect that the White Walkers would attack from underground. This was something that no one expected. Their deaths were really unjust.
