The only way

Chapter 809 Scam
The mountain road is narrow and the dense forest is deep.

The moonlight was obscured by heavy clouds, and a group of people walked forward with their heads buried in the sky. Everyone's eyes were fixed on their feet, for fear of missing something in the night.

Except for the thin monkey-like man at the head, the rest of the people following him were a little uneasy.

Especially as we went deeper and deeper into the dense forest, the already narrow mountain path was gradually obscured by broken leaves and dead branches and low bushes. The thin monkey walking at the front took it off and hid it on his waist, and wrapped it in a coarse cloth. The sickle was swinging from time to time to cut down the branches blocking the road.

The moonlight occasionally penetrated the trees and fell on the sickle held high by the thin monkey. The flash of sharpness on the curved blade immediately burned the eyes of the people behind him.

The scholar in white clothes caught sight of the cold light from the corner of his eye, and his heart suddenly trembled.

He has traveled widely and is not a nerd who knows nothing. He has seen gangsters who robbed homes, lived in ruthless black shops, and heard of Qianzi who defrauded people of their money.

The person trapped in Canglan City is not only his best friend, but also his sister's fiancé.

If not, the scholar in white would definitely not take the risk to go to Canglan City. Even in the letter to his home, he did not dare to make it too clear. He only said that he had encountered some things and needed to delay for some time.

He was afraid that his sister would do something in a moment of impatience.

Running away from home and looking for a husband thousands of miles away, the scholar in white thought that with his sister's temperament, he might not be able to do it.

However, after being stopped at the border for so long, he became impatient. Following this skinny monkey-like man into the forest today, he may have been a bit reckless.

The white-clothed scholar's breathing was disordered for a moment, and his eyes traced the thin monkey's sharp sickle and the occasionally exposed half of his expressionless profile.

I took another look at the surrounding environment. Tall trees blocked most of my field of vision. No matter in front of me or behind me, there were dense trees at a glance.

As for the fire at the border, it has long since disappeared.

The surroundings were very quiet, and the loudest sound was the sound of their group walking through the dense forest. The hems of their clothes were caressing the branches and leaves, dead branches were stepping on their feet, and there were bursts of low breathing.

Climbing a mountain, a steep and difficult mountain road, and at night is a difficult task for them.

"Brother Sun, how long do we have to go?"

Someone was the first to ask, unable to bear it any longer, gasping for breath, holding a branch he found somewhere as a crutch.

The thin monkey’s surname is Sun, and everyone calls him Little Brother Sun.

Hearing the question, Skinny Monkey turned his head and smiled, "Don't worry, it's not that fast to go over mountains and ridges. If you walk a little further, there will be a cave in front. I have prepared some dry food and water in it. Everyone can do it. take a break."

Everyone laughed when they heard that there was dry food and water, and then they felt that the money was not wasted. Brother Sun was well prepared.

"Brother Sun is really well-prepared. The money is indeed not wasted!" Someone said in good faith. As soon as these words came out, the group's fatigue disappeared a lot.

They stayed at the border for a long time, so they naturally prepared a lot of dry food and water bags with them, but it was better if someone prepared them.

The people in front of and behind the scholar in white were all relaxed, chatting casually about the experience of walking at night, or why they went to Canglan City.

The atmosphere seemed very pleasant.

But in the eyes of the scholar in white, for some reason, the smile on the thin monkey's face always had a cold air. Maybe it was the deep night, or maybe it was the contrast of the sickle.

Anyway, the uneasiness in the white-clothed scholar's heart grew stronger.

He began to pay attention to the surrounding mountains and forests, always paying attention to the thin monkey leading the way out of the corner of his eye.

Another two-quarters of an hour passed, and the cave had not yet arrived. The group of people, except for the thin monkey, were all extremely tired, their legs were weak, and they had no strength. They were no longer in the mood of talking and laughing before, and everyone was left gasping for breath. .

The thin monkey leading the way still looked relaxed.The scholar in white looked around and found that the trees began to become sparse, more moonlight came through, and the road under his feet became somewhat flat.

With a slight exertion, the ground beneath my feet was solid, and there was a vague path for people to walk out.

Looking around, the scholar in white suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eye, and reached for it. As soon as he got it, he heard the thin monkey leading the way suddenly said, "We're here!"

These two short words cheered up the exhausted people. Everyone seemed to have strength again, and they quickened their pace and chased the thin monkey forward.

The scholar in white was standing there, holding the thing he just got in his hand, a little surprised.

There is a middle-aged man behind him. Once the scholar in white stops, he cannot leave.

Although the middle-aged man was also anxious to rest, he had a good temper. When the scholar in white stopped, he asked considerately, "What's wrong? Can't you walk, young gentleman? How about I help you walk?"

Out of respect for scholars, the middle-aged man was very enthusiastic.

The scholar in white didn't answer, he held the thing in his hand and looked in front of him.

The moonlight penetrated the clouds, passed through the branches and leaves, and fell impartially on the hands of the scholar in white, illuminating the things in his hands.

It was a torn, palm-sized piece of muslin, dyed with white florals, the most common style, but it was stained with large dark brown stains.

The scholar in white and the middle-aged man both saw it, and their expressions changed.

That dark brown color is blood!
Dried blood!
"This" the middle-aged man was startled and couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.

The scholar in white grabbed the middle-aged man and said, "Let's go!"

After saying that, the two of them planned to turn around and go back the way they came.

As a result, as soon as they turned around, the expressions on their faces were completely stiff, and they could not take any further steps.

Behind the two of them, a man with a strong back and a strong waist appeared at some point, carrying a tiger-headed sword on his shoulder, and a pair of stern eyes with a cold light on his bearded face.

"Oh, the little scholar is quite smart," the big man, who was strong and had a rough voice, laughed loudly, "It's a pity, once you're here, don't even think about leaving!"

"You all move forward! Otherwise I will kill you right now!"

The bearded man shook his shoulders, the rings under the tiger-head sword collided, his eyes were fierce and his tone was unkind.

The middle-aged man's feet went weak, but he was helped by the quick eyes and hands of the scholar in white to prevent him from falling to the ground.

The two of them didn't resist, so they had to turn around and walk forward.

After a while, his eyes lit up, but he saw a cliff.

Without the cover of trees, this cliff was particularly clear under the moonlight. In addition to the thin monkey, there was a tall and strong man carrying a knife. Together with the thin monkey, they blocked everyone between the cliff and the mountain road. .

In front of the group of people was the thin monkey and others sharpening their knives, and behind them was a bottomless abyss.

The cold wind was blowing, everyone's eyes were full of despair, and their bodies were trembling.

The scene in front of them made it clear that they were in danger, and any method to get to Canglan City was a lie!

I'm afraid that the abyss behind them is their destination!
