C498 The Weird Forest
In this kind of mountain, whether it was hunters or farmers, they would build some wooden houses or caves to rest in.
It was not just to provide a place for themselves. The most important thing was that when they or the lost people were in the mountain, they would have a place to rest.
However, these places were built in very hidden places.
After all, deep in the mountains and forests, they had to guard against the invasion of all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts, so they naturally had to be much more careful.
Hence, even if they built a foothold, whether they could find it or not was one thing. After finding it, whether or not the foothold was still there was another matter. After all, most of them were wooden houses. If no one took care of them for a long time, They would soon rot and be abandoned.
Therefore, without the guidance of the locals, it would be very difficult to find a place to stay.
"Yes!" Da Niu nodded his head and looked gratefully at Lee Muxue. He knew that whether it was Lin Jue or Lee Muxue, the reason why the two of them made such a decision was largely because of him. That was why they chose to stay on the mountain for the night and try to find out the reason.
"Before I left, I came to the mountain to conduct a thorough inspection. After we left, the villagers could only protect themselves. So many times, they would enter the mountain to patrol and see if there were any wild beasts that went down the mountain."
Da Niu quickly climbed onto a tree. That agile appearance was completely incomparable to his huge figure!
After confirming the exact location and direction, Da Niu jumped down. "Based on our current speed, the nearest foothold will take about 40 minutes! When he left, I will be at every foothold. I hid some coal, bacon and daily necessities. Although it's not much, it's enough for me to spend the night"
" 40 minutes? No problem!" Lin Jue nodded.
"Okay!" Da Niu gave a silly smile.
Ever since the death of Da Niu's grandfather, Da Niu had always abided by the old man's last wish. Apart from protecting Little Willow Village from the invasion of the wild beasts, he also checked the resources and other issues of the various footholds in the mountain.
However, he did not expect that he would actually use it today.
"Master, are we going to live here?" Lee Muling heard their conversation and could not help but ask, "Will there be wild beasts attacking us tonight?"
"Maybe!" Lin Jue thought for a while and teased, "How about this, after we reach the place? I will tie you up and hang you on the tree! Let's go fishing, one of us will kill one! If we have two, we'll kill a pair!"
" Sister!! "Lee Muling heard Lin Jue's words and immediately ran behind Lee Muxue and hid behind her.
Lee Muxue rolled her eyes at Lin Jue and pulled Lee Muling away.
Ever since they found out that Lin Jue wanted to disable two people's martial talent, they were afraid of Lin Jue. They were afraid that Lin Jue would catch them and disable them.
The trauma in their hearts was beyond their imagination. Even when they were at home, Lee Muxue had slept with the two of them a few times, and they would talk in their sleep.
It was not easy for them to come here. The two little fellows let down their guard a little. In this kind of environment, it was undoubtedly safer than following Lin Jue.
But they did not expect Lin Jue's words to scare the two little girls into turning around and running.
In their hearts, Lin Jue was a great devil at this moment.
Their initial favorable impression of him was gone. From Lee Muling and Loo Junyao's point of view, Lin Jue was feeling uncomfortable no matter how they looked at him.
He could even find an excuse at any time and kill the two of them...
"Continue forward!" Lin Jue gave the order and everyone no longer had any thoughts of playing around. Under the lead of Da Niu, they continued forward.
Along the way, Lin Jue kept checking the surroundings. The deeper they went, the more surprised he became.
More and more traces of animals appeared. However, there were no large beasts.
As for those weak beasts, it was as if they were restricted by an invisible force. They did not dare to step into the inner circle and could only wander around.
At this time, Lee Muxue no longer had the mood to hunt. Because she could also see the strangeness of this place. It was just that currently, she did not know what the reason was.
30 minutes later, under the lead of Da Niu, they arrived at a place that was so lush that there was almost no road.
"This is it!" Da Niu said, "Due to the geography of this place, the losses in the surrounding areas are increasing crazily. Later on, Grandpa realized that he lost quite a bit and completely blocked this place!"
" Oh? Doesn't that mean we have arrived at the Peach Blossom Garden?" Lin Jue couldn't help but smile when he heard that. "I didn't expect Elder Sun to be so interested back then!"
"Hehe..." Da Niu gave a silly laugh. "Back then, Grandpa said that he wanted to live a more carefree life than Uncle Crane, so he built quite a number of such places in the forests of the Changbai Snow Mountain."
"That's right, that's right. Old Crane is an old bastard!" Lin Jue nodded in agreement. "All day long, the country and the world say that it is true. But he has been running to the widow's house at the foot of the mountain. When he was young, he always used me as a cover. What a shameful moment!"
When everyone heard Lin Jue's words, they could not help but feel ashamed.
Lee Muxue rolled her eyes when she heard it, "No wonder you have such a character too!"
Although every time Lin Jue talked about his background, it was very vague. However, Lee Muxue knew very well that Lin Jue should have followed those reclusive high class people since he was young and had always been learning and cultivating.
In her heart, or in other words, in anyone's heart, whenever a hermit was mentioned, he would probably be the kind of person who would leisurely see the south of the mountain under the east flowered chrysanthemum.
However, she did not expect that it would be such an existence. This caused the image of an expert in Lee Muxue's heart to collapse in an instant.
"Hey, hey, hey, are you thinking of something wrong?" Lin Jue said angrily, "I am Green Lotus! He did not get infected by the mud! He was still able to maintain this kind of purity with these old bastards. This is simply a miracle!"
Li Mu Li didn't say anything. He just kept looking at Lin Jue. After a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "You are so thick-skinned. Which senior did you learn this from?"
"Of course it's Yao Lao!" Lin Jue couldn't help but touch his cheek. "Old man, you are so thick-skinned. Even the masters of Martial Dao Realm. There was nothing he could do about it. In the end, he couldn't afford it, so he gave him so many rare herbs. Heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
"It was clearly an open robbery, but in the end, he insisted on borrowing!"
"Borrow?" Lee Muxue heard and could not help but smile, "Then you wouldn't be the one to return it, right?"
Lin Jue's expression was praising as he walked into the wooden house with his head lowered.
"Hey, hey, hey, let me tell you... You can't do this to Ling and Yao Yao!" Lee Muxue hurriedly followed up and instructed.
"Hey, hey, hey, I got it!" Lin Jue said weakly.
However, his heart was not only lit up!
It was as if the dark world had suddenly seen light!
That's right! If he had been scammed by Yao Lao, then he could also scam his own disciple!
This is what inheritance is called...
"Un... Traditionary things cannot be lost! Otherwise, I will be letting down the Old Ancestor!"
He muttered and his gaze could not help but look at Lee Muling and Loo Junyao who were in the corner.
The two little fellows in the corner who were originally chatting and laughing with Lee Muxue suddenly felt a chill and could not help but shrink their necks and shiver.
"Zhu Feng, Xing Wen, the two of you go and patrol the vicinity!" As Lin Jue spoke, he took out a few stalks of medicinal herbs from his backpack and instructed, "After crushing this leaf, scatter around and throw it around us. Just a little bit will do."
"Wow! Minister, what is this... It smells so bad!" The face of the man called Zhu Feng couldn't help but twitch. As if he had smelled a biochemical weapon, he subconsciously jumped far away to increase the distance between them.
"Ai? What's wrong with you!" Dung Xingwen looked at Zhu Feng in confusion.
"I don't have a cold!"
"It's fine. I picked these herbs on the way up the mountain. They didn't have much use, but they were the most annoying smells of some snakes, insects, rats, and ants. And they were very persistent. So after crushing them, you can just throw them around! "
Lin Jue looked at the two of them and smiled." The reason why the two of you have such a different reaction is mainly because of people's sense of smell, hearing, taste, and other senses. As they grow older, they are actually always regressing. "
"In addition, the genes in the human body seem to be the same, but in reality, there are many small and strange differences. That is why this kind of person is very sensitive to a certain special smell, but the other kind of person has no feelings for it at all!"
"This is just like eating durian. Right, Department Head? " Dung Xingwen seemed to understand and couldn't help but say, "People who like to eat love them dearly. Those who don't like to eat, they run away when they smell it! "
"More or less, that's it!" Prince Lin nodded.
Little Six, Xuetu, brought Zhao Yang to investigate the orphanage. The remaining three people were Hao Ming, who went hunting with Da Niu, and the two people in front of him, Zhu Feng and Dong Xingwen.
"Alright, let's go now!" The two of them nodded and quickly left.
However, Lin Jue, who originally planned to rest, did not even turn around to sit down when he heard Hao Ming running in while panting. "Minister!"
"Slow down, drink some water!" Lin Jue looked at Hao Ming and asked, "Did something happen?"
"Great Mr Niu found something and wanted you to go over for a while!" Hao Ming said.
"Go over there?" Lin Jue frowned and looked at Lee Muxue and the other two in the corner worriedly.
Lin Jue did not want the three of them to be separated from him. If something really happened, he might not be able to make it in time!
"Let's go and take a look too!" After Lee Muxue heard Hao Ming's words, she pulled the two pouting little girls up and said.
