Chapter 95: Death Valley 1

  Wen Baiyu quickly hung up the phone, just as Xue Suipushan walked in from outside. Wen Baiyu saw him and immediately ran over, saying: "Have you seen Guan Nan?"

  His face was extremely pale and he shook his head.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Isn't Guan Nan always with you?"

  Xue Suo said: "This morning, Guan Nan was gone, I've been looking for him outside, but didn't find him."

  Moreover, Guan Nan disappeared together with Xiao Xue Miao. Logically speaking, the Blood Tribes are extremely sensitive to the smell of different tribes. Although Xiao Xue Miao was born prematurely and her smell was insufficient at first, after such a long period of nurturing, the tribal smell on her body has become very strong.

  But the blood marrow didn't feel any trace of Guan Nai and Xiao Xue Hua around.

  "Really taken away?"

  He handed the photo to Xue Yu, whose aura was extremely furious and his face was very difficult.

  "When will we set off?"

  Although the Blood Marrow wants to find Guan Nan as soon as possible, they cannot fight without a plan. Obviously, this person is well-prepared and his goal is to obtain the Jianmu Fragment, or rather, the Xi Feng. Therefore, before achieving their goal, it is impossible for them to harm the hostages. For now, there is no need to worry about Guan Nan's and Tang Ziyu's safety issues; Urban Overlord.

  They must be well-prepared before setting out, otherwise they will always be led by the nose.

  Tang Tze wanted to follow, but Wen Baiyu disagreed. After all, if Tang Tze went, Yu Wei Yang would definitely follow too. However, Yu Wei Yang's body was weak, and it was winter now, the weather was already very cold. If Yu Wei Yang entered the high-altitude Kunlun Mountains on the plateau, there would be altitude sickness, and the extreme cold would definitely not be good for his body.

  Yu Wei Yang said: "I'm not like I've never been there."

  Wen Baiyu still disagreed, last time on Mount Kunlun, the scene where Yu Wei Yang rolled down the snowy slope, Wen Baiyu remembered it clearly. If Tang Zijian hadn't happened to come from the snowy slope at that time, Yu Wei Yang would have been in great danger.

  First, Wen Baihe took stock of the people going to Kunlun Mountain this time. Jiǔ Mìng had to go with them; although he only had eight and a half tails, his skills were solid. The three-pronged spear from the East Sea could scatter the souls of evil spirits, so it would be best if Donghai came along too.

  At the same time, there were also Zhou Chengyi and Xi Feng together.

  Of course there is bone marrow.

  Wen Baiyu felt that there shouldn't be too many people this time, after all they didn't understand each other's intentions.

  After deciding on the candidate, Wan Gui Jing Hou said: "You can't go."

  Wen Baiyu was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou frowned and said: "Your body is not suitable for high-altitude places now."

  Wen Baiyu thought of it immediately, and Wan Kuang Jinghou must be worried about himself. Wen Baiyu now has a candle dragon egg in her belly, and she doesn't know when it will be born. After all, everyone hasn't seen a candle dragon egg before, and during this period, Wen Baiyu's power will also be restricted. Although it's not like the time of Huai An Guo, when he couldn't use his powers at all, it's still unpredictable.

  Wen Baiyu was momentarily speechless, but soon said: "But I'm worried about you going. If you go, I'll definitely follow."

  Wan Jihou was about to speak, but Wen Baiyu said: "Moreover, if you leave after saying this, it's like luring a tiger away from its mountain. I'm even more afraid to stay here alone."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou thought for a moment, how to call someone to stay, the small restaurant still had many people, such as Tang Zi, Yu Boss, Gan Zhuo and Hun Dun, at home there were also Ya Shou and Hua She.

  But in the end, Wan Jie didn't want to be separated from Wen Baiyu either. The last time they were apart was when he went to Kunlun Mountain, and then Wen Baiyu had brought people to chase after him. Wan Jie found it hard to express how he felt when he saw Wen Baiyu again - a whole heap of questions rushed up at once: How did you get here? What happened on the road? Was there any danger...

  There are too many problems like this, and it's too much trouble. Maybe bringing Wen Baiyu along is a wise choice after all, at least I can keep an eye on him anytime and anywhere.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou was silent for a moment before nodding his head, and Wen Bai Yu immediately smiled, saying: "Don't worry, I won't drag you down."

  Wen Baiyu said: "There is a problem, Kunlun Mountain is so big, where exactly does he want us to go and trade?"

  Wan Ji Jing Hou said: "Don't worry about these, that person is hiding in the dark and likes to pretend to be mysterious, he will definitely contact us again."

  The next day everyone started buying tickets and preparing to go to Tibet.

  Wen Baiyu wanted to go out with Wan Xi Jinghou to buy some essentials, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw something stuck in the doorway. As soon as the door opened, it fell to the ground with a "thud".

  It is an envelope...

  Wen Baiyu wanted to pick it up, but Wan Xizonghou stretched out his hand to stop him. Then he bent down and picked up the envelope on the ground. The envelope was blank, with a piece of paper inside. With a slight shake, a black feather fell to the ground.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou unfolded the paper, on which were written only three words: "Death Valley".

  Wen Baiyu was slightly surprised and said: "The Death Valley of Kunlun Mountain? That's the Langger Gorge?"

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou frowned slightly, and Wen Bai Yu said: "He wants us to enter the Death Valley? This is clearly not a good intention."

  Zou Chengyi and Xi Feng soon arrived in Beijing, where everyone gathered at a small restaurant. Wen Baiyu showed them the new letter that had just been delivered.

  Zou Chengyi was taken aback and said, "Death Valley?"

  "Then our entire plan will be ruined."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou said: "If you want to enter the Valley of Death, you must start from Xining and enter the valley from Bulun Tai."

  Wen Baiyu thought to himself, the most critical thing was that they had never taken this path before, and that the Tongtian Gorge was known as the Valley of Death. Many expedition teams and adventurers had died inside, and the locals called it the Gate of Hell, not daring to enter.

  Wen Baiyu felt that the intention of this letter was very clear, and it might be to let them enter the Death Valley and then fend for themselves. After they all died, they would take away the Jianmu fragments on their bodies.

  Everyone fell silent for a moment, staring at the snow-white sign with the three words "Death Valley" written on it, and no one spoke.

  After about a minute, Yifeng suddenly said: "I can go by myself."

  Zou Chengyi immediately said: "No way."

  Yi Feng said: "This letter only mentions my name, I can go alone, Young Master, you can rest assured."

  Zou Chengyi suddenly raised his head, looked at Yi Feng, and said in a cool tone: "Can I be at ease? How can I be at ease? Yi Feng, why does this letter point to your name, can you tell me the reason?"

  Yi Feng stood by the table, looking down at Zou Chengyi sitting in his wheelchair. After a few seconds, he took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, let out a breath and said faintly: "Yes, I also want to know the reason."

  Yi Feng's answer obviously didn't satisfy Zou Chengyi, and Zou Chengyi didn't look at him again.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Let's go buy tickets to Xining later, and rent a car after we arrive at the destination."

  Everyone nodded, they couldn't afford to delay any longer. Even if Guan Nian and Tang Ziyu were taken as hostages without being in danger of losing their lives, it was uncertain whether they would suffer or not. The appearance of the extortionist last time was still vivid in their minds.

  Everyone bought tickets and took off at 6 pm, arriving in Xining around 9 pm.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou went to make a phone call, after they arrived in Xining, they didn't want to waste time. Wan Kuang Jing Hou contacted the people on the road and had them prepare equipment and vehicles in advance. Although the time was a bit rushed, Wan Kuang Jing Hou's reputation on the road was very high. He said one word and many people scrambled to do things for him, also good for building relationships.

  After everything was ready, everyone had lunch and rushed to the airport. The plane to Xining was a large one, with three seats in each row. After Wan Jiahui and Wen Baiyu sat down, they saw that there was still another man wearing a white windbreaker sitting next to them. The man had long hair, simply tied back behind his head, walked over to their side, and sat down.

  Wen Baiyu was taken aback and looked at the man, saying: "Taizi Ye?"

  The crown prince's face was very pale, after all, he was a ghost, dressed in modern attire, his face was very cold and detached. He sat down, took a glance at Wen Baiyu and Wan Qi Jing Hou, and said: "I'll go with you."

  Wen Baiyu thought for a moment and knew that Taizi Yan must have been paying attention to Gongzi Shou's reincarnation, knowing that Tang Ziyu was Gongzi Shou. It's likely that Taizi Yan also knows about the trouble with Tang Ziyu.

  Wen Baiyu nodded silently, and didn't say another word. It was good that the Crown Prince followed him too; this person had a strong aura of yin energy on him, he would definitely be able to help.

  The plane took off on time and landed at Xining Airport in less than three hours. Everyone got off the plane, and it was almost 10 o'clock, with the sky already pitch black.

  They went straight out of the airport and didn't take a taxi. Soon they heard someone shouting: "Master Jing! Is that Master Jing?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou immediately walked over, nodded, and the man quickly ran over, respectfully handing the car keys to Wan Qi Jing Hou with both hands, saying: "Master Jing, all the equipment you requested is ready, it's all in the car, a large truck."

  Wan Xi Jinghou took over the key and nodded, then turned around and threw the key to Yi Feng.

  Yi Feng took over, immediately got into the driver's seat, started the car, and the others followed suit, Zou Chengyi sat in the passenger seat, behind him were Jiuming Donghai, Wen Baiyu, and Wan Qi Jinghou, as well as the always gloomy Blood Marrow, plus a sudden appearance by Prince Tai.

  Jiuming and Donghai didn't know the Crown Prince at all, but the impression he gave people was just like when he first met Donghai, extremely cold and aloof, unwilling to say a word to anyone else, sitting alone, staring out the window, and emitting an aura of gloom.

  At around half past nine, they set off quickly in their cars. The group departed from Xining and headed straight for Bulongtai. From Bulongtai, they continued westward to reach the Valley of Death on Mount Kunlun.

  From Xining to Brunai, it takes more than a dozen hours by car. Among these people, only Yifeng can drive, so the heavy responsibility of driving fell on Yifeng's shoulders.

  The sky was very dark, they had passed Xining after midnight, the weather was not good, even with the car windows closed, you could still hear the "howling" wind outside, like a ghost crying at night.

  It was late at night, and there were only their cars on the road. The pale car lights shone on the ground, and the road was a bit bumpy.

  Wen Baiyu rushed to catch the plane in the afternoon, and dinner was hastily eaten on the plane. The food itself wasn't comfortable to eat, and after getting off the plane, she directly took a car. Now her stomach hurts badly, she's very hungry, but doesn't know what appetite is, and also feels extremely sleepy.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw that he was sleepy, so he took off his own coat and put it on him, letting Wen Bai Yu lean against his shoulder, saying: "You take a nap first."

  Wen Baiyu leaned against Wang Ju's shoulder and soon fell asleep.

  Wen Baiyu didn't know if it was because the car ride was too bumpy, but after falling asleep, he had a nightmare. He dreamed that he was constantly running, with snow all around him. He didn't know why, but he had to walk on the frozen lake surface, and every step made him trip and fall, hurting his whole body.

  The surroundings were filled with the howling wind, and beneath his feet was the ice surface that had almost shattered. Suddenly, the ice surface let out a loud cracking sound, and it split open in an instant. Wen Baiyu plummeted downwards, wanting to transform into a swan and fly up into the sky, but he couldn't fly at all. A wave of severe abdominal pain washed over him, and he instantly gulped down several mouthfuls of icy water, his entire body on the verge of freezing solid.

  At this moment, someone suddenly rushed up to him and shouted "Give me your hand! Give me your hand!"

  Wen Baiyu didn't know who was calling, but his survival instincts made him stretch out his hand from the icy lake water, and someone grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the shore with all their might.

  Wen Baiyu was almost out of breath, being pulled by that hand on one side and struggling to climb up on his own on the other. Just as he was about to break through the surface of the lake, a severe cramp suddenly seized his stomach, followed immediately by a "whooshing" sound, and a very long knife had actually been inserted into his abdomen.

  Wen Baiyu's throat let out a "huh" sound, his eyes widened in shock, and the hand grasping his own suddenly loosened. Immediately, someone gave him a push on the shoulder, Wen Baiyu's body leaned back, and with a "splash", he sank into the icy lake water...

  "Ah..."

  Wen Baiyu's whole body felt cold, and she struggled violently for a moment before suddenly waking up from her dream.

  "Bai Yu? Bai Yu, what's wrong?"

  Wen Baiyu opened his eyes to find Wan Jieying tightly wrapped around him. Wen Baiyu hadn't fully woken up yet, panting roughly and staring blankly at Wan Jieying.

  Nine lives owed to the body, wiped the warm white feather's forehead with a hot towel and said: "Master, did you have a nightmare? You sweated so much, hurry up and wipe it dry, or else you'll catch a cold."

  Wen Baiyu looked around and saw five people in the back seat. Yi Feng was driving at the front. Zou Chengyi also turned his head to look at him after hearing his call. Outside the window, a layer of frost had formed due to the cold weather, making everything look unreal.

  After a night, Wen Baiyu didn't know where the car had driven to. It seemed like a mountain road. From the window, the winding mountain road was grayish-yellow, with white snow on top. Further away, it was a vast expanse of yellow earth, filled with a desolate and awe-inspiring feeling.

  Wen Bai Yu stared blankly, subconsciously placing her hand on her abdomen.

  "What's wrong? Uncomfortable? White Feather?"

  Wen Baiyu finally came back to his senses, his throat a bit hoarse, as if he had been frightened by the scene in his dream. He cleared his throat and said, "Nothing... I just had a strange dream."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou gently wiped his forehead and then used a towel to wipe his neck, which was also covered in cold sweat. "You scared me to death," he said. "Your face looked terrible just now."

  Wen Baiyu thought back to her dream, everything had seemed so real, and since it was just a dream, why did she still feel the pain?

  A genuine feeling of suffocating pain, and numbness from being pierced by a knife.

  The sky was not yet fully bright, and the morning fog was too thick. It was a mountain road, and I didn't dare drive too fast in the wind. Gradually, the car could no longer move forward, even with the fog lights on, it was hard to distinguish the road ahead.

  The driver stopped the car and said, "Everyone get out and take a walk. It's time to have some breakfast anyway. The fog is too thick, it's very dangerous to continue driving like this. Let's wait until the sun comes out before we proceed."

  Everyone looked around at the fog and it was like being in a fairyland, even better than special effects in movies.

  Everyone sat in the car all night, their bodies already exhausted. They opened the doors one after another and got out of the car to move around and stretch their bodies. Reborn as a loser female supporting character.

  Wen Baiyu went to sleep directly last night, and dinner was still eaten on the plane. Now he's so hungry that his chest is sticking to his back, there's nothing in his stomach, and he's a bit panicked.

  They brought a lot of food when they set off. Although it's too cramped here and can't cook together, they can still eat something.

  Wen Baiyu was eating breakfast and gazing into the distance. If it weren't for the purpose of saving people, the scenery here would be quite good.

  Wen Baiyu turned around and saw that the prince was still sitting in the car. He didn't know when a photo had appeared in his hand, it was Tang Ziyu's photo. In the photo, Tang Ziyu was wearing a basketball jersey and smiling brightly.

  The crown prince lowered his head and looked at the photo, saying nothing.

  The sun rose quickly, although the sky still looked gloomy and overcast, but it was a victory to dispel the fog.

  Everyone got back on the car, and Yi Feng started driving again. This time, the atmosphere was strange. Zou Chengyi was unusually silent. Although he didn't talk much before, he had never been this quiet. It was clear that Zou Chengyi was angry, and it was directed at Yi Feng.

  Yi Feng asked Zou Chengyi a question, but Zou Chengyi didn't respond with a single sentence. Along the way, he also didn't look at Yi Feng, only gazing out of the window.

  Their car drove onto a vast wilderness at dusk, and everyone looked at the desolate scene, unable to help but open the window. The strong wind rushed in from outside, blowing everyone's spirits up, but also sobering them up quite a bit.

  Yi Feng said: "Tonight we can reach BulenTai, and going further west will enter the Death Valley. It's not safe to enter the canyon at night, and once entering the Death Valley, it's an area under surveillance. I suggest resting at BulenTai for a night and entering the canyon tomorrow morning."

  Everyone was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, Wen Baiyu felt that Yi Feng's words were very reasonable. To the west of Bulentai is the range of the canyon. Once they enter, it's like entering a trap, and they will definitely be overwhelmed. They don't know if there is a place to rest inside the Death Valley. If they don't rest well, they will undoubtedly find trouble for themselves.

  Everyone agreed to repair in Brunei and everyone needs to find a camel, it's impossible to drive into Death Valley, where camels seem much safer than off-road vehicles.

  The car kept moving forward, and soon it would be dark. The sun was about to set behind the mountains when some animals suddenly appeared running wildly on the barren land.

  Jiu Ming opened the window, and those animals came running in droves from behind him. He had never seen animals galloping across the fields before; the scene was more realistic than what he saw on TV.

  "What is it? A deer?"

  Donghai pulled his head back in from outside the window and said, "Don't stick your head out, it's very dangerous."

  Dong Hai said with a glance outside, couldn't help but burst out laughing, saying: "Dummy, that's a wild donkey."

  Wen Baiyu turned his head to look, and indeed it was a group of wild donkeys running in the wilderness at an extremely fast speed, galloping exceptionally agilely. The speed of these wild donkeys might be even faster than that of cars.

  Wen Baiyu just wanted to tease Jiuming, who was not diligent in his work and did not distinguish between different grains. He looked back at the rear window of the car and suddenly furrowed his brow, saying: "Is this really a wild donkey?"

  Jiǔ Mìng smiled and said: "It turns out there are also people who don't recognize me."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Not... this wild donkey is a bit too big, right?"

  He said, turning his head to look out the rear window. At this glance, Jiǔ Mìng immediately shouted: "My mother, this wild donkey has eaten hormones! The driver is awesome!"

  The wild donkeys were running behind them, slowly catching up. Normally, wild donkeys would be startled by the car and run alongside it, but it was clear that this group of wild donkeys was chasing after them.

  Wen Baiyu glanced at the dashboard, their current speed was nearly ninety miles per hour, and these wild donkeys were gradually catching up from behind, with a running speed that was astonishing.

  And the wild donkeys are getting closer and closer, and everyone finally knows what Jiǔ Mìng means by "eating hormones". The body length of the wild donkey can reach 250 cm, which is already one of the largest. And the wild donkeys that chased after them were even bigger than their off-road vehicles.

  The most important thing is that this strange wild donkey is not just one, but a group.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou narrowed his eyes and said: "Close all the windows!"

  The driver's first reaction was to immediately press the control, closing all the windows, while stepping on the gas pedal. The car sped across the wilderness, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust as it rapidly moved forward.

  The wild donkeys behind chased relentlessly, like a group of mad beasts, the wild donkeys galloped in groups, their four hooves kicking up clouds of dust on the ground, and from the rear window, only a gray cloud could be seen.

  "Got rid of it? Great, got rid of it."

  Just as his voice had just fallen, Prince suddenly shouted: "Be careful!"

  There was only a loud "Bang!!" sound, the off-road vehicle suddenly tilted to one side, and everyone immediately leaned to one side. The driver's seat and passenger seat were both wearing seatbelts, but the people in the backseat weren't wearing seatbelts. Wen Baiyu suddenly flew into Wan Jinghou's arms, and everyone fell to one side.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou immediately shielded Wen Bai Yu with his arms, preventing him from hitting the glass.

  Suddenly a huge wild donkey appeared from the slope and crashed into their car with a loud "thud".

  The weight of a wild donkey can reach over 200 kilograms, but their off-road vehicle weighs at least several tons, and there are people on the car, which is also loaded with food and equipment, making it even heavier.

  A wild donkey rushed over and bumped into the car, causing it to shake. The donkey immediately flew out at an angle and fell to the ground with a "thud". It shook its head and then fainted, I don't know if it was killed by the impact.

  The nine lives crawled up and looked at the donkey outside the car window, which was motionless, and said: "Is this wild donkey crazy? What's good for it to hit our car?"

  Wen Baiyu was dazed from the impact and looked back, suddenly saying: "Don't stop, step on the gas, they're catching up from behind."

  He glanced in the rearview mirror, let out a "tsk" sound, and clearly became impatient. He immediately floored it, and the car sped away across the vast wilderness. The wild donkey behind them chased after them like crazy, relentless in its pursuit.

  Dong Hai said: "These wild donkeys are not right."

  Jiuming said: "You just figured it out? They're all mad donkeys."

  Dong Hai said: "We are already close to BulenTai, beyond BulenTai is the Valley of Death, it's very likely that we have already fallen into a trap."

  Wen Baiyu said: "You mean to say that these wild donkeys are raised by someone?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou narrowed his eyes and said: "If they are really wild, what did they eat to grow so big?"

  As the crowd spoke, the wild donkeys quickly came flying again, chasing after their cars non-stop. Some of the wild donkeys were about to catch up with their cars, while others flew in from the side.

  "Here comes!" Jiǔ Mìng shouted immediately.

  Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and the car immediately swerved to the right. Immediately after that, there was another "bang" sound, and the left side was heavily hit again. The two wild donkeys kept colliding with the car from left and right.

  The flight attendant said, "Fasten your seatbelts!"

  The people in the back seat have already fastened their seatbelts and grabbed the handrail after what just happened.

  Yi Feng took a glance at Zou Chengyi and said, "Young Master, hold on tight."

  Zou Chengyi didn't say a word, but still reached out to grab the handrail, and just then the car suddenly accelerated and sped away.

  The tremendous thrust made everyone grunt, feeling as if the back of their seat was pressed against them, hitting their backs straight.

  The driver's skills were excellent, and with two swift turns of the steering wheel, there was a loud "bang" sound, the car shook violently, and immediately knocked open the crazy wild donkey beside it, then swiftly drew a curve and sped forward.

  Everyone took a deep breath, feeling the speed of the car increasing constantly. This off-road vehicle was given to General Wan by someone on the road at a great cost, so its price was naturally not cheap. However, such a car was actually driven by Yi Feng to be somewhat floating. Wen Baiyu only felt the wind around her ears "whooshing" loudly, and her head was dizzy, she immediately wanted to throw up, and didn't dare to look at the speedometer again.

  Jiǔ Mìng was directly thrown out, but Dōnghǎi grabbed him with one hand and held him in his arms. Jiǔ Mìng's whole body was about to explode, his ears and tail escaping, eight and a half of his tail tightly tied around Dōnghǎi's arm and waist, his face deathly pale.

  The car sped away, and the wild donkeys in the back were gradually left behind. Just at this moment, a loud roar was heard, and a wild donkey actually caught up from behind. Its shoulder height was higher than the car, and its body was enormous. This thing was absolutely not natural.

  A wild donkey came running from behind and crashed into the back of their car with a loud "thud".

  Everyone pushed forward, Zou Chengyi was held back by the seatbelt, his head hit the glass with a loud crash, the huge impact force made Zou Chengyi's head suddenly swell up red and bruised, with some internal bleeding, but the skin was fine.

  That wild donkey crashed into the car and was also dazed, "thud" fell to the ground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Yi Feng immediately said: "Young Master, how are you?"

  Zou Cheng's head was dizzy and he shook it, reaching out to touch his forehead. He couldn't see his forehead, but it felt sore to the touch and was swollen.

  Zou Chengyi didn't respond to Yi Feng's words, which made Yi Feng extremely angry. His face revealed a displeased and gloomy expression, like a cloudy day. He suddenly took off his glasses and threw them aside, then stepped on the accelerator.

  Most people didn't have time to think about the conflict between Zou Chengyi and Yi Feng, Wen Baiyu looked back at the rear window, only to see a cloud of dust rising behind them, vaguely seeing a wild donkey rushing towards them. Wen Baiyu saw that the wild donkey's head was broken, its ears were knocked off, and it was covered in blood, but the wild donkey seemed to be unaware of the pain, continuing to chase after them.

  "Here we go again."

  Jiuming saw the blood-covered wild donkey and said: "Is this wild donkey crazy?"

  A wild donkey came galloping, this time changing its strategy, not hitting the rear of their car, but instead hitting the glass. Wen Baiyu saw a huge bloody donkey face suddenly appear on his side window, and then the donkey face started "banging" against the windshield; viciously attacking them.

  After the third collision, the window began to crack and expose countless fine cracks. However, because it was bulletproof glass, and the bulletproof coefficient looked pretty good, the cracked window did not shatter or fall off.

  Wen Baiyu got close to that wild donkey and found that its eyes were actually glowing, with a fierce expression on its face. Its mouth was always open, revealing the teeth inside.

  The donkey's neck had a ring of needles stuck in it, with half of the needles inserted into the flesh and the other half exposed to the skin. As the sky slowly darkened from dusk, the needles surprisingly emitted a blue glow.

  Wen Baiyu's mind "buzzed" for a moment, and he immediately thought of the blue needle that had been used to sneak up on Wan Qi Jinghou. It was also this kind of blue needle that had been tied around the wild donkey's neck in a circle. No wonder it would be so fierce and violent, and not feel any pain at all, nor have any fear of people or cars.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly pulled a handful of Wen Bai Yu and said: "Come here."

  He said, at the same time turning over and switching seats with Wen Baiyu. Before Wen Baiyu could react, Wan Qi Jinghou suddenly rolled down the car window glass, and the sound of a wild donkey's "huff huff" breathing, as well as the "whooshing" wind sound, rushed into the car at once.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou then used one hand to support himself, and in the instant that the wild donkey poked its head over, he quickly drilled out of the car window and kicked the wild donkey's head.

  Then, with a few "bangs", Wan Xi Jing Hou flew out of the speeding carriage and hugged the wild donkey's neck tightly. The two black shadows fell to the ground in an instant and started rolling rapidly on the wilderness.

  Wen Baiyu was startled and immediately shouted: "Stop the car! Quick!"

  He hesitated for a moment, then slammed on the brakes and brought the car to an abrupt stop. The inertia was great, and they flew out very far, with Wan Xiangjing and Ye Liu's shadows almost becoming two invisible small black dots in the dim light.

  Wen Baiyu jumped down from the car without hesitation after opening the door. Jiuling shouted: "Master!"

  Also ran along with them, Donghai charged at the remaining people and said: "Stay where you are."

  He jumped off the car and quickly caught up with him.

  As the crowd rushed over, they saw Wan Jie Jing Hou get up from the ground, his body covered in dirt. He had rolled around in the wilderness, so it was impossible for him not to have any dirt on him. There was a large abrasion on his cheekbone, with dirt and sand stuck inside. His hand also had an abrasion, but overall he didn't seem to be seriously injured. The wild donkey lay on the ground, panting heavily, and Wan Jie Jing Hou loosened his grip, dropping a blue needle on the ground.

  Wen Baiyu rushed up and saw that Wan Jiahao was fine, so she immediately let out a sigh of relief, feeling like she had almost scared herself to death. Her heart was about to fail from the shock.

  They were afraid that there would be more wild donkeys coming from behind, so they quickly ran back to the car, got in and closed the door, letting the driver continue driving forward.

  Wen Baiyu looked at Wan Kuang Jing Hou covered in dirt and said: "You want to die! Do you know how fast the car is going? You jumped out of the window directly!"

  He hesitated for a moment before answering in a very "kind" tone: "Two hundred and thirty."

  Two hundred thirty

  Wen Baiyu was even more enraged when he heard this number, and simply killed Wan Jiahao to get it over with, so that he wouldn't have to worry about how to play the flute anymore.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw Wen Bai Yu's face turn iron green, his chest heaving with rage, and feared that he would hurt himself. He immediately let out a "hiss" and said: "My face hurts; reborn as the double-faced beauty."

  Wen Baiyu looked at Wan Jijinghou's temple, which was scraped off a big piece, and wondered if it would break his fortune. But breaking his fortune would be good, so that Wan Jijinghou wouldn't cause trouble for others, and also flirt with women everywhere.

  Wen Baiyu's expression on his face didn't look good, but his movements were extremely gentle. He took out a medical kit and used cotton swabs to disinfect Wan Qi Jinghou. Wen Baiyu dabbed several times with medicinal alcohol, and the smell of alcohol filled the car.

  Wen Baiyu took a cotton swab and gently wiped away the sand from Wanjing's wound, disinfecting it with alcohol. Although it was good for disinfection, it also hurt quite a bit. This time, Wanjing really felt pain and let out a hiss.

  "Wen Baiyu said: 'Be honest, don't move.'"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou grunted and suddenly leaned over, saying: "It hurts too much, blow on it for me."

  "Now you know it hurts, why didn't you knock your nose in?!"

  Wen Baiyu said, but his movements became much lighter, carefully disinfecting him. Wan Qi Jinghou smiled and quickly pressed his lips to Wen Baiyu's, giving him a quick peck on the mouth. With so many people in the car, Wan Qi Jinghou's actions were extremely swift. Wen Baiyu couldn't say anything else, only saying "I told you not to move."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's attitude was very good, and he immediately said: "Good, I won't move."

  Wen Baiyu cleaned the wound on his face, then got a piece of gauze, picked up a few strips of adhesive tape and stuck his wound together to prevent infection from the strong wind and sand outside.

  After treating Wan Jie Jing Hou's face, Wen Bai Yu also treated the bruises on his hands. The wound on Wan Jie Jing Hou's hand was not serious, but because of the self-healing function of the dragon candle, some sand was still inside, which made it more difficult to deal with and required reopening and disinfection.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou didn't pretend to be pitiful and cry in pain anymore, his fingers were still a bit swollen, probably sprained when he rushed down the car.

  Jiǔ Mìng smiled and watched as Wēn Bái Yǔ carefully treated the wound of Wàn Qǐ Jǐng Hóu, saying: "Look at how worried our master is."

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Wen Baiyu raised her head and glared at Jiuming, who was smiling and shaking his eight half-tails back and forth on the face of Donghai.

  Donghai squinted and said: "Be honest."

  As he spoke, Jiǔ Mìng swept his tail away, and when he saw Dōnghǎi frowning at him sweeping his own tail, he thought it was funny. Immediately, he swept his tail over again, all the way to Dōnghǎi's face, even into his ears and onto his neck.

  Donghai narrowed his eyes and grabbed the tail of Jiuming, who was caught by the tail and immediately shouted: "Save me..."

  As a result, he hadn't even finished shouting when Donghai grabbed his tail and pulled it from top to bottom, then pinched the root of Jiuxing's tail with force.

  "Ah..."

  Jiǔ Mìng immediately blew his top, his ears perked up, and he shook with force. Dong Hai said calmly, "Are you still causing trouble?"

  Jiǔ Mìng was almost paralyzed in his seat, panting heavily and weakly saying: "Good... so comfortable..."

  East Sea: "......"

  Everyone escaped from the wild donkey group and felt a lot more relaxed. However, it was clear from those blue needles that they had obviously fallen into a trap.

  The car arrived at Brunai in the middle of the night, its body almost covered in scars, the rear end was dented, both sides had large dents, and one window was shattered, looking very disheveled.

  This place is sparsely populated, and people are hardly seen. Everyone got off the bus and prepared to camp here, entering the Death Valley of Kunlun Mountains early tomorrow morning.

  Everyone set up their tents, a very large tent, and then piled up firewood. This place was too windy, ordinary fires would be extinguished with one blow, but fortunately there was still Wan Zongjinghou, the fire spirit of Candle Dragon was not something that could be extinguished with just one blow.

  All the way sitting in the car, didn't eat hot food, everyone hit the pot, supported it on the fire, poured water into it, ready to cook noodles to eat, eating something warm.

  Jiǔ Mìng stared at the small canned fish brought by someone, drooling. This kind of thing was extremely smelly, and others were unwilling to eat it, especially in such a cold place, where the dried fish was even smellier. This made Jiǔ Mìng happy.

  With a military knife, he pried open a small can of dried fish and ate with relish.

  Wen Baiyu has gradually gotten used to the taste of meat these days, but as for fish, she absolutely can't get used to it. As soon as she smells the fishy smell, she vomits until she's dizzy and sees stars.

  Jiumeng was eating dried small fish while saying: "The master threw up so badly, he must be a boy."

  Wan Ji Jing Hou patted Wen Bai Yu's back and said, "So uncomfortable?"

  Wen Baiyu rolled her eyes and said, "You try next time."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and handed him a bowl of cooked noodles, saying: "Eat quickly, you've already spit out the bitter water."

  Wen Baiyu had just finished vomiting, and her stomach didn't feel as uncomfortable anymore. It seemed like she also regained some appetite. She hugged the warm bowl, using chopsticks to pick up noodles and ate a few mouthfuls.

  Everyone heated up the fast food potatoes and canned beef, boiled a big pot of mixed stuff, in this icy snowy environment, it still smelled quite good.

  Everyone sat together to eat and then discussed the route, deciding to have a good rest tonight and set off early tomorrow morning. However, they looked at the time and it seemed like there were only a few hours of rest left.

  Zou Chengyi sat in his wheelchair, staring at the jumping flames without saying a word. Yi Feng brought over some food and scooped all the meat from her own bowl into Zou Chengyi's, saying: "Young Master, eat a bit more, finish up quickly and rest, we'll be entering the valley in a few hours."

  Zou Chengyi didn't take over the bowl, but instead looked up at Yi Feng and suddenly said: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

  He was taken aback by the wind for a moment, and then shook his head calmly.

  Zou Chengyi smiled inexplicably and said, "Take it away, I've lost my appetite."

  Yi Feng knelt down halfway and placed the bowl in Zou Cheng's hand, saying: "Young master, don't be reckless anymore, you have to eat something."

  Zou Chengyi didn't speak, and with a frown, he put the bowl aside on the ground, took off his glasses and put them in his coat pocket, saying: "Young master, have you ever thought that the person who sent this letter might be trying to divide us?"

  Zou Chengyi had indeed thought that if this person allowed them to fight among themselves, it would be a good idea to reap the benefits later.

  But Zou Chengyi also wondered, why did he specify Yi Feng? Why didn't he specify others?

  There is still a reason for this.

  Zou Chengyi still didn't speak, his eyes cold and detached. Suddenly, he made a "tsk" sound with his tongue and said: "Young master, I was rude. The great reformation of the scum attacker."

  He said, suddenly lowering his head, both hands shackling Zou Chengyi's hands and arms, trapping Zou Chengyi in his embrace, opening his lips to find Zou Chengyi's lips, frantically kissing the person in his arms.

  Zou Chengyi was startled and didn't expect Yi Feng to suddenly kiss him, and there was no reason for it. They had indeed kissed a few times before, but each time there was an unavoidable reason.

  The wind's kiss revealed / exposed anxiety and ferocity, tightly pinching Zhou Chengyi, rubbing his lips and tongue, fiercely sucking at the root of his tongue, sucking until Zhou Chengyi's tongue felt sour, and a "hmm" sound came from his nose.

  Zou Chengyi's face was flushed red, his high-bridged nose twitching with every changing angle as he passionately kissed her, the high bridge of his nose carrying a cool temperature that rubbed against her nose.

  Zou Chengyi was about to lose his breath, wanting to struggle, but the wind suddenly loosened its grip on his lips. However, his hands were still tied to Zou's arm, and then a series of urgent kisses fell along his mouth, followed by heavy panting sounds that reached Zou's ears, combined with his own frantic heartbeat, making his brain almost dizzy.

  He tightly wrapped his arms around him, crazily kissing the crown of Zou Chengyi's head, the bridge of his nose, his lips, his ears, and the base of his ears, leaving kisses on all these places. Then he moved to his neck, slowly licking, biting, and sucking with the tip of his tongue.

  Zou Chengyi sat in a wheelchair, his eyes were red, the tip of his nose was also red, and there were tears shining in his golden eyes. He breathed heavily, as if he might faint at any moment.

  The wind hugged him and whispered in his ear: "I've wanted to do this for a long time."

  Zou Cheng's body trembled, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. Although his tone was still respectful, there was an undercurrent of tension, as if something was lurking beneath the surface.

  "Ahah, young master, hurry up and eat your meal, or else I'll do something even more outrageous."

  Yi Feng said, straightening up his body, and handed the bowl full of food to Zou Chengyi, also stuffing chopsticks into his hand.

  Zou Cheng held a bowl with both hands, his hands still trembling, his two arms weakly shaking, and his chest rapidly rising and falling.

  The wind and Zou Cheng shared a kiss, causing a huge commotion, with gasps and moans, the intensity of which was noticed by everyone, but they were too embarrassed to look directly.

  They had approached the Gorge of the Glittering Caves and someone had to keep watch. The prince volunteered, saying: "I don't need rest."

  The others all went into the tent, covered themselves with the blankets they had brought and slept huddled together.

  It's already the second half of the night, and there isn't much time left to sleep, but they still need to rest. Everyone is crowded together, and can hear the sound of the wind outside the tent, "whooshing" constantly against the canvas, sounding extremely frightening.

  The crown prince sat alone beside the bonfire, his hand clutching the photo, which fluttered in the wind, making a rustling sound.

  Tang Ziyu and the Crown Prince are exactly the same in my impression, even if they have been reincarnated, they still look the same as in memory. When they smile, there is no awkwardness at all, and it always gives people a warm feeling.

  If it weren't for this kind of person, how could he get along with Crown Prince Yi?

  The crown prince stared deeply at the photo, he had long noticed the girl beside Tang Ziyu, the girl was small and lovely, holding onto Tang Ziyu's arm, the two people's feelings looked very good. Substitute return.

  To be honest, the Crown Prince was a bit jealous and didn't know what to feel. Although they were half-brothers at that time, the relationship between this younger brother and himself was far better than his relationship with Gongzi Shuo, who was his full brother.

  The Crown Prince repeatedly brought it up, their stance was different, Xuan Jiang also favored him so much, with the intention of letting Duke Wei establish him as the crown prince. They shouldn't have been so close in the first place, after all, the two people had their own factions to support.

  But that silly younger brother didn't listen, and insisted on following him. Their ages were vastly different, after all Xuan Jiang was originally supposed to marry Crown Prince Yi, but was snatched away by Duke Wei, becoming Crown Prince Yi's stepmother. Crown Prince Yi himself felt like he had nothing in common with this little kid.

  But the crown prince was wrong, this hairy kid made him worried from head to toe...

  Their relationship was so good, so close, that no one could surpass it, not even their biological parents. However, in the photo in front of him, Tang Ziyu seemed to have a very close relationship with his sister, and Taizi couldn't help but admit that he was extremely jealous, jealous to the point of madness.

  According to historical records, Crown Prince Yin was a gentle and generous person with outstanding character and a kind heart. However, over the past few thousand years, almost all of his gentleness had been ground away, leaving only a desire for revenge in his heart.

  The crown prince discovered that his obsession had doomed his younger brother to a life of short-lived ghosts, but in his heart, the flames of resentment still burned, as if fueled by oil, and the fire of obsession grew stronger.

  The crown prince gently stroked the young man in the photo, the young man was still the kind and gentle brother, but he himself was no longer the warm and gentle older brother of the past. The crown prince had long been aware of his own changes, but was powerless to do anything about it. He closed his eyes and let out a deep sigh.

  Wen Baiyu slept drowsily, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly found himself lying on the icy surface of a lake. The lake had frozen over, and the ice was crystal clear to the bottom, with an endless deep pool beneath it. The ice surface emitted a cracking sound as if it couldn't bear the weight.

  Wen Bai's eyes snapped open in fright. This was a dream, the same dream as last time. All around her was ice, and it was about to break apart at any moment.

  "Crack!"

  Wen Baiyu felt her body sink, and in an instant she was submerged by a surge of icy water.

  "Reach out your hand! Reach out your hand!"

  It was that voice again. Wen Baiyu struggled constantly, remembering very clearly that if he stretched out his hand, he would definitely be caught and stabbed hard in the abdomen.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly lifted his head, trying to get as much of it out of the water as possible, taking big gulps of air. At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed him, and Wen Baiyu struggled with all his might, but was quickly pulled upwards.

  A voice shouted loudly: "Wen Baiyu, catch me, catch me, I'll pull you up!"

  Then there was a "whoosh" sound, Wen Baiyu suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a long knife was inserted into his abdomen. Then he quickly pushed forward, and Wen Baiyu let out a "hiss" sound. The man laughed sinisterly and quickly pulled out the long knife...

  "White Feather! White Feather!"

  Wen Baiyu felt someone shaking his shoulder, and he immediately woke up from his dream. He stared at the top of the tent for a long time, unable to speak, and let out a hoarse "huh... huh..." sound in his throat, his voice extremely hoarse.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou looked at him worriedly and said: "Bai Yu, what's wrong?"

  Wen Baiyu stretched out her hand to grab Wang Xi Jinghou's arm, muttering: "Had a strange dream... that dream again..."

  Wen Baiyu said while pressing her abdomen with her hand: "I dreamed... a knife was inserted..."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly narrowed his eyes, holding Wen Bai Yu in his arms, gently patting his back, and softly said: "It's okay, it was just a dream, go to sleep, it will be dawn soon."

  Wen Baiyu was extremely exhausted, constantly fleeing for her life in her dreams, and hadn't slept well at all. Listening to the warm voice of Wan Jingshou, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.

  The blood marrow, which had been lying dormant, suddenly sat up, as if awakened by the sound from just now. He lifted the curtain of the tent and saw that the bonfire outside was still burning. The prince was still sitting on the horse blanket they had brought with them, his head bowed, staring at a photo in his hand, looking like a statue.

  The sky outside was gray and dark, it was four o'clock, and dawn would break soon. Guan Nan was nowhere to be found, and even the small Blood Orchid had disappeared. How could Blood Orchid sleep? He stood up straight away and walked out of the tent.

  Zou Chengyi also woke up, he didn't sleep well to begin with, and he had a nightmare too. In the dream, Yifeng was gently kissing him, the two of them tightly embracing each other, but at this moment, Yifeng suddenly looked at him coldly, despising him for being crippled, wanting to strangle him to death.

  Zou Chengyi was startled awake from his dream, opening a pair of golden eyes to stare blankly at Yi Feng sleeping beside him. Yi Feng's sleeping posture was very proper, lying flat on the ground with his hands placed on his chest and not a single expression on his face.

  Zou Chengyi looked at him, not knowing what he felt in his heart. He always thought that Yi Feng was not right, and must be hiding something from himself. Moreover, the letter sent to him also pointed to Yi Feng, making Zou Chengyi feel even more uneasy. But that person didn't say anything, which made Zou Chengyi even angrier. He had used mud to create Yi Feng, as a substitute for his own legs, to do things for him, just like an obedient slave.

  Now, Zou Chengyi found that if he suddenly didn't have his wheelchair, he couldn't do anything at all. The feeling was not like just losing both legs, which made him extremely angry.

  Zou Cheng furrowed his brow in thought, when suddenly Yi Feng opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Zou Cheng and softly asked: "Young Master, can't sleep?"

  Zou Chengyi didn't say a word, and immediately closed his eyes. At this time, Yi Feng turned over, wrapped his arms around him, and held him in his embrace. He gently rubbed Zou Chengyi's soft hair with his chin, kissed his ear twice, and said, "Young master, go to sleep."

  Zou Cheng struggled with both hands, but Yi Feng's hug was too tight, a strange force, he couldn't break free, fortunately, he didn't care about Yi Feng.

  Just as everyone was about to fall asleep again, the blood marrow outside suddenly shouted, and everyone immediately woke up. Wen Baiyu quickly sat up and said, "What's wrong?"

  Everyone lifted up the tent and rushed out, only to see Xue Mu using his flashlight to illuminate a distance away, where a camel team was walking towards them.

  Camel!

  Everyone was suddenly excited, they wanted to enter the Death Valley, it's absolutely impossible to drive in, but walking on foot, without any means of transportation, and not knowing how long they would have to walk.

  There are few people here, and I don't know where to find camels. Unexpectedly, I met one.

  The camel driver led a team of camels, which was quite spectacular, with over a dozen camels, not a small number.

  The camel drivers were not surprised to see them, for they were in the business of soliciting customers in the area. Many people would enter the Kunlun Mountains' Death Valley from Bulun Tou, also known as the mysterious Hell's Gate, Gelong Canyon.

  Although filled with an air of death, more and more adventurers and tourists want to experience this magical natural beauty.

  Camel workers are specialized in this business, there are scenic spots inside, all of which are undeveloped areas that satisfy tourists' thrill-seeking needs, hiring camels to enter Death Valley costs a lot of money.

  The camel worker said he was familiar with the terrain and if someone wanted to go into Death Valley for a look, they could pay him.

  However, Wen Baihe and his team did not come for in-depth travel or to appreciate the wonders of nature. They came to rescue people. Even if the camel workers were familiar with the terrain of Death Valley, they would not be able to walk too deep and would definitely return after reaching a certain distance.

  Wen Baiyu and Tuo Gong discussed it, they needed camels, so they bought them at a high price. However, for Tuo Gong, the camels were his entire capital, and he couldn't possibly sell all of them to Wen Baiyu.

  Wan Baiyu left a few camels for the camel workers, selected several strong camels that were enough for them to ride on, and also had some camels carrying luggage, spending a lot of money.

  The camel worker, seeing the money, still wished them well and said: "Don't go in too deep, it's really too dangerous. I once saw a herdsman run in, later when he was found, he was holding a gun, with food on his body, lying on the ground, his corpse had stiffened, without any wounds on his body, as if he had been scared to death!"

  As for the dangers of Death Valley, although Wen Baiyu and others have not been there, they have all heard about it and seen it on TV. The magnetic field and lightning here are very strange. One moment the wind is calm and sunny, the next moment it's thundering and snowing, with violent storms and heavy rain.

  Everyone bought camels and began to sort out their luggage, moving all the luggage from the car to the camel's back. To prevent windstorms and sudden situations, the luggage was tied tightly to prevent it from falling off due to bumps.

  At the same time, some essential luggage was carried on his back.

  Jiumeng looked at those camels and said: "In order to prevent them from getting lost, let's tie up these camels!"

  Wen Baiyu thought it made some sense, as the terrain inside was unclear, what if there was fog and they got lost? So everyone took out ropes from their luggage, tied all the camels together, front and back connected, the rope was very long, leaving a large space between the camels, not too close, and also to avoid sudden situations.

  After an hour of preparation, everyone finally finished tying up their luggage and started setting up the pot to cook. Perhaps this was their last hot meal. Everyone ate a lot, refreshed themselves, immediately packed the camels, climbed on, and prepared to enter the canyon.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou led the way, followed by Wen Bai Yu, then Yi Feng holding Zou Chengyi on a camel, Xue Su Ye at the back, and finally some camels carrying luggage.

  The camel's pace was not fast, the surroundings were initially a vast expanse of desolate, grayish-yellow land, with scattered white snow on top, and it was impossible to see the end in one glance. In the hazy distance, there was a range of mountains.

  The crowd followed one after another, walking for more than an hour before leaving the Gobi covered with white snow and starting to enter the mountain.

  The Gobi Desert has almost no plants or animals, but after entering the mountains, there is a stretch of dirt road. Wen Baiyu smells a foul odor and soon sees many animal carcasses lying on the road, including sheep and cattle, too numerous to count.

  The corpses were piled up, and the camels had almost nowhere to set foot. The crowd lowered their heads, looking at these piles of animal corpses, not knowing what kind of feeling it was.

  They crossed over the group of corpses and continued walking forward along the mountain road, where the dirt path gradually became covered with more and more vegetation.

  As a precaution, everyone held weapons in their hands. The plants in front were too dense and complexly intertwined on the ground, even the camels walked with caution. Everyone used the things in their hands to brush aside branches. The eldest princess was clever, my precious empress.

  Some trees can't even be named, and they have thorns growing on them. The trunks are a deep red color, like blood, and the branches twist and turn, looking like a series of tripwires.

  Jiuming rode a camel in the middle, looked up at the sky, and thought it was unwise to enter the mountain today. Because there was no sun all day, the mountain was surrounded by thick fog, the forest was wet and humid, and the soil on the ground was also damp, making him feel uncomfortable breathing.

  Jiuming furrowed his brow and said: "Too wet, why is it so wet here."

  Donghai knew he disliked water and didn't like humid places either, but now there was no way out, they could only follow the mountain inwards, there were no other roads.

  "Endure it for now."

  Jiǔ Mìng's ears twitched slightly, and he pursed his lips, but didn't say anything else.

  They continued to move forward, and the plants in the mountains became more and more abundant. There were also many thorns on the ground, making it almost impossible to walk on the road.

  In the gloomy sky, crows flew by one after another, crying "Ga la... Ga la...", making people feel annoyed and distracted.

  Everyone has been cautious since they came in, and they are no longer so anxious. After all, this place looks very dangerous, and there are people hiding in the dark waiting to set them up.

  After walking for a while, Jiǔ Mìng's ears twitched and said: "The sound of water, I heard the sound of water."

  He said, and Wan Qi Jing Hou also heard it. The voice came from the front, and when he looked carefully ahead, the dense plants that were previously impassable had disappeared. In front of him was a river, with flat green grass on both banks, covered in white snow.

  The riverbank is slightly frozen, and the river water is half-frozen, in a flowing state.

  Everyone saw that they were about to leave this terrible forest and urged the camels to hurry up.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou was the first to walk out of the forest, and in front of him, the scenery suddenly opened up. The river water flowed down along the gentle slope of the mountain, winding its way forward, curving and bending, as far as the eye could see. Although there was ice on both banks of the river, it was very flat.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou got off the camel, camels walking on ice will slip, must wrap their hooves to deal with it, otherwise when the time comes, people and camels will fall on the ice and suffer.

  Everyone also turned over and came down, all the way on the camel's back, feeling that the whole person was about to scatter.

  As soon as the white feathered camel came down, it suddenly let out a loud bray and started bucking violently. The ninth life was sitting on top of it and was immediately thrown off, landing with a "thud" in the icy river.

  Fortunately, the river water was very shallow and had some ice, so it wouldn't drown people. However, strangely, Jiǔ Mìng fell into the river water but didn't struggle at all.

  Donghai immediately jumped off the camel and ran over to pull the person out of the river.

  The nine-lived camel was still in a state of extreme excitement, continuously making strange noises and appearing extremely agitated. Wan Jie Jing Hou immediately walked over and quickly untied the camel's rope. The camel continued to cry out loudly, probably startling the other camels as well.

  Wan Qi Jinghou stretched out his hand to grab the camel's reins, calming it down, but the camel remained extremely excited and continued to attack people.

  Wen Baiyu found a blood stain on the camel's body, probably scratched by branches in the woods earlier.

  The camel suddenly let out a strange cry and broke free from General Wan's reins, immediately rushing into the woods again.

  Donghai pulled Jiuming out of the water and placed him on the shore. The crowd didn't have time to care about the camel, they rushed over and saw that Jiuming's face was pale, his eyes were closed, he was lying on the ground, his body kept trembling, his chest rose and fell rapidly, he breathed heavily, "Huh... huh..." He was unconscious.

  Wen Baiyu lowered his head to take a look, and there was also a wound on his arm, just like the camel's, which had been cut open and was bleeding. However, the wound wasn't deep at all, and it was almost scabbed over already.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's face turned gloomy and he said, "He has been poisoned."

  He said, using a dragon-scale knife to cut open his own palm and letting the blood drip onto it.

  Jiǔ Mìng's condition wasn't good, he was breathing rapidly, after dripping the blood of Wàn Kuí Jǐng Hóu, he fell into a coma and then started to have a fever.

  The crowd lost a camel and Jiǔ Mìng was injured. No one expected that such a small wound would cause Jiǔ Mìng to lose consciousness.

  It's already noon, so everyone stopped and prepared for lunch, just waiting to see if Jiǔ Mìng would take a turn for the better.

  Jiǔ Mìng was lying in Donghai's arms, burning fiercely at first, but the wound gradually healed. Jiǔ Mìng's face looked deathly pale, his pointed ears drooping, and his eight-tailed tail hung lifelessly as he curled up on Donghai's body, occasionally making murmuring sounds in his sleep.

  Everyone finished eating, and Wen Baiyu came over to take a look at Jiumeng. Jiumeng's forehead was still very hot, looking like he was still running a fever. Wan Kuang Jinghou's blood had helped the wound heal quite a bit, but it wasn't as effective as Phoenix Blood.

  Wen Baiyu was worried that Wan Jie would be anxious and didn't tell him. He secretly cut open his palm and dripped some blood for the nine lives.

  Although Wen Baiyu's spiritual power is currently restricted, the blood still works, and Jiuming quickly cleared up, the high fever also subsided, only slightly low-grade fever.

  Jiǔ Mìng slowly opened his eyes, the long period of high fever had made his eyeballs red, and his mind was a bit dizzy, he didn't know what had happened.

  The East Sea tightly hugged him and said: "You're too troublesome."

  Jiǔ Mìng blinked his eyes, and Wēn Bái Yǔ saw that he was awake. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and said: "Now that you're awake, rest for a bit and have something to eat."

  Wen Baiyu stood up, and suddenly felt a wave of dizziness in his head, his body swayed, and someone from behind held him steady.

  Wen Baiyu turned around and saw that it was Wan Kuangjinghou. He immediately felt a pang of guilt and hid his injured hand behind his back.

  Wan Kuang's face didn't look good, he just said: "Hand, stretch it out."

  Wen Baiyu immediately stretched out his other hand, and Wan Kuangjinghou grabbed it, pinching his wrist and pulling out the injured hand, which still had some blood in the palm.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou grasped Wen Bai Yu's wrist, lowered his head and gently licked the palm of Wen Bai Yu's hand.

  Wen Baiyu felt a strong itch and pulled back her hand, saying: "Stop licking, you're a dog, aren't you? It's clearly a loach."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou raised an eyebrow and said: "Not letting you lick is also possible, I have other things that can help your wound heal, do you want to try?"

  Wen Bai's face turned red, thinking that Wan Jue Jing Hou was an old rascal; the flash marriage president was very afraid of his wife.

  Jiuming woke up, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After he ate something, they continued on their journey.

  This road is much easier to walk than before, but after all, it's not a big road. The ice formed by the river water is very slippery, and the camel walks even slower. Everyone prepares to get off and lead the camel to walk. Wen Baiyu walked for an hour, fell three times, feeling that his arm was about to be broken, and his whole body muscle ached.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou's face was particularly dark, and in the end, he directly hugged Wen Bai Yu and left. It wasn't Wen Bai Yu's fault that his brain was a bit unbalanced, this ice surface was extremely smooth, making it very difficult to walk on, and with just a slight sway, one would fall over.

  Everyone walked until nightfall, following the river upstream. The whole time it was just water and plains on both sides, nothing else was encountered.

  It was pitch black everywhere, and in such a place, no one dared to continue walking forward. They could only find a flat place to set up their tent and start a bonfire.

  A crowd sat around, cooking and undressing by the fire, roasting their clothes. Although it didn't rain, the weather was too damp and cold, they were all wet, and everyone kept falling down, splashing a lot of river water on them.

  Everyone changed their clothes, hung up their wet clothes by the fire to dry, and then prepared to eat.

  They entered Death Valley for the first time today and didn't walk very far, it was almost a struggle to take each step, and they had no idea where that person wanted them to go.

  Because they had entered Death Valley, General Wan Xi Jing said: "Tonight we need two people to keep watch together. I'll take the first shift."

  Yi Feng immediately said: "I'll keep watch with you."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou glanced at Yi Feng and nodded slightly.

  Wan Ji Jing Hou urged Wen Bai Yu, saying: "Finish eating and go to sleep quickly, you've been tired all day, is your body uncomfortable?"

  Wen Baiyu shook his head, although he had fallen several times along the way, but didn't feel uncomfortable at all, just a bit more physically exhausted and tired.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou and Yi Feng stood guard at night, while the others ate their fill and quickly entered the tent, crawling into their sleeping bags to wrap themselves up tightly, preparing for sleep.

  Wen Baiyu soon fell asleep, and in a daze, she heard the sound of "rustling" beside her ear. Wen Baiyu's whole body was startled, and she suddenly sat up to find herself lying on the ground without a sleeping bag.

  He suddenly got up from the ground, and there was no one around him.

  Not even one person!

  Wen Baiyu was a bit flustered, took two deep breaths, saw the firelight in front of him, and suddenly ran forward a few steps, then saw that they had built a bonfire.

  The bonfire was still burning, but it made a "hissing" sound. Inside, there were things crackling and popping. Upon closer inspection, the bonfire actually had many insects inside, which were centipedes, and they were extremely large, longer than the palm of one's hand.

  The tent was right next to it, but it had already been torn apart, with things scattered all over the place, and still not a single person in sight. All around, there was only the sound of the wind howling, without any human voice.

  The camel next to it is also gone, with many backpacks scattered on the ground and broken ropes.

  Wen Baiyu calmed down and immediately rushed over, rummaging through the backpack on the ground. Food, water, first-aid kit, all these things were scattered all over the ground.

  Wen Baiyu hastily grabbed a backpack and stuffed things in disorderly, suddenly feeling a sharp pain in her wrist. She looked down to see that there was a red mark on her wrist, slightly swollen, apparently bitten by a centipede, but it had already bled and scabbed over with a cross-shaped scar.

  Wen Baiyu was packing up the essentials while quickly thinking in her mind, they must have encountered some danger when they were sleeping, judging from the large number of scorched centipedes, it should be an attack by this poisonous insect.

  Moreover, he himself was bitten by a poisonous insect, and the situation on his wrist must have been handled, but when Wen Baiyu woke up, he was alone, indicating that they had encountered another sudden situation, otherwise, according to Wan Kuang Jing Hou's character, it is absolutely impossible for him to be left alone.

  Wen Baiyu was afraid that others would get into trouble. Even if nothing happened, they didn't have emergency food and water, and it was impossible to survive in Death Valley.

  Wen Baiyu quickly packed up, shouldering a bag and carrying another one. Due to the current obstruction of spiritual energy, Wen Baiyu was afraid that he would suddenly lose control and be unable to produce flames. He picked up a longer piece of wood from the ground as a torch and then quickly returned to where he had woken up earlier.

  The place was still deserted, a desolate scene, and the darkness of night made it seem even more desolate. From time to time, the sound of crows calling "Ga la... Ga la..." could be heard from above.

  Wen Baiyu walked upstream against the river water, continuing on their daytime route. If they got separated, they would necessarily continue walking along the original route.

  He walked along, carefully looking at the grass on both sides, but didn't find any signs.

  Wen Baiyu soon became somewhat tired from walking, the sky was too dark, and the torches were weak, so it was impossible to distinguish where the ice was and where the water was. Sometimes, what looked like ice would suddenly give way to a ditch of water, and she would get soaked all over, but fortunately, there was no deep water.

  Wen Baiyu's body was both wet and cold, shivering constantly, with a slight pain in his stomach, his breathing becoming heavier, gritting his teeth as he walked forward.

  At this moment, he suddenly saw something in the grass, a person lying there, surrounded by several eagles, those eagles were not big, but their eyes were shining brightly, as if they wanted to make the person on the ground their food.

  Wen Baiyu immediately rushed over, using torches to disperse the old eagles. The old eagles were afraid of the torches and flew up into the sky, but continued to circle around, seemingly unwilling to give up.

  Wen Baiyu chased away the old eagle, looked down and found it was actually Zou Chengyi!

  Zou Cheng had a wound on his neck, which was red and swollen, similar to the bruise on his hand. Wen Baiyu immediately scratched her own finger and dripped blood onto it.

  Zou Chengyi quickly regained consciousness, shouting "Feng!" and suddenly opening his eyes.

  Zou Chengyi saw Wen Baiyu in a daze, his mind still muddled, and said: "What's going on?"

  Wen Baiyu helped him up and said: "I don't know either, but the others are all gone. Do you still remember what happened?"

  Zou Cheng's face was extremely pale and weak, if it weren't for Wen Baiyu's Phoenix Blood, he would probably be dead by now. He shook his head with difficulty and said: "I don't know, I only remember a chaotic mess...it seems like I was bitten by a centipede..."

  Wen Baiyu handed him a backpack, then picked up Zou Chengyi from the ground and said: "We can't stay here, there are many centipedes in the campsite, I don't know if those centipedes will chase us."

  Zou Chengyi nodded weakly, put on his backpack, and lay down on Wen Baiyu's back, panting slightly with some weakness.

  "Wen Baiyu said: 'Hold on tight, the road is slippery and there are potholes...'"

  His words stopped there, Zou Cheng let out a loud cry, Wen Baiyu's body tilted to one side and suddenly fell into the water pit, two people's bodies sank in, their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.

  Fortunately, the water pit was not big, but the torch was thrown out and fell into the water, extinguishing it directly.

  Wen Baiyu panted heavily, struggling to climb out of the water pit, and reached out to grab Zou Chengyi, pulling him out as well. The two sat on the ground, both panting heavily.

  Wen Bai's face turned pale and she felt an increasingly severe cramp in her stomach, with cold sweat constantly dripping down.

  Zou Chengyi looked at his face and said, "You'd better rest for a while."

  Wen Baiyu didn't dare to pretend, so she sat down on the ground casually. Zou Chengyi hurriedly searched through his backpack and found a thermos bottle. The water inside was no longer hot, but at least it wasn't ice-cold. He handed it over to Wen Baiyu.

  Wen Baiyu's weakness made her unable to drink water, so she waved her hand, indicating that Zou Chengyi should drink by himself.

  Wen Baiyu rested on the ground for five minutes, feeling the pain gradually subsiding and becoming more bearable. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, only then realizing he had sweated profusely. He quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and face, not wanting to get a fever.

  Just then, Zou Chengyi suddenly said "Shh", and said: "There's a sound."

  Wen Baiyu immediately held her breath, then pulled Zou Chengyi and pulled him into the grass beside him. The two of them crouched in the grass, trying to lower their bodies as much as possible, just seeing someone coming over.

  Wen Baiyu felt a surge of joy, but soon fell into despair. It wasn't Wan Kuang and Jing Hou after all. The footsteps of these two people were extremely urgent, as if they had been running wildly all the way. Listening to their breathing, there was also a woman inside.

  As the two people got closer, Wen Baiyu's eyes suddenly widened. He knew both of them, although he had never met them in person, but he had seen their photos. They were exactly the people they were looking for - Tang Ziyu and his sister!

  Tang Ziyu looked extremely disheveled, completely unlike the sunny feeling in the photo. His face was covered in blood, and his clothes were also stained with blood. The girl next to him looked very weak, ran a few steps, and fell to the ground with a "thud".

  The girl burst into tears and shouted: "Run quickly! Brother, you run away! Don't care about me! They're coming after us! They're coming after us!"

  They ran down from upstream of the river and in a direction exactly opposite to that of Wen Baiyu, but it was unknown what was chasing them.

  The girl couldn't get up, so Wen Baiyu saw the situation and carried Zou Chengyi over to help. After all, Tang Ziyu was the person they were looking for.

  Wen Baiyu helped in the past, but those two people suddenly looked at Wen Baiyu and Zou Chengyi like they saw a ghost. Tang Ziyu blocked the girl behind him, vigilantly looking at them, constantly backing away.

  Wen Baiyu wanted to say that he didn't have any malicious intentions, but before he could even open his mouth, he heard the sound of "rustling" coming from afar.

  The girl screamed in terror: "Run! Run!"

  In the girl's shrill cry, only a few black shadows flashed over from afar, they ran extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they were about to rush right up front, and those black shadows surprisingly all looked exactly alike.

  In other words, all those black shadows looked exactly the same as Zou Chengyi. Tang Ziyu and the girl were being chased by these people, no wonder they looked like they had seen a ghost.

  The dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of them, screaming frantically and pouncing on them...
