The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 3 Going the way of others, safe and affordable

Since it is a designated target assessment, it is very important to choose a route.

Zheng Tuo backhanded and took out what looked like a magnifying glass from his backpack.

This is a special magnifying glass that he asked a cultivator to refine for him.

The function is the same as that of a normal magnifying glass, except that the magnification intensity can be adjusted automatically.

The highest level can reach a hundred times the microscope.

Zheng Tuo held a magnifying glass, looking for something on the ground frame by frame.

After a while, the target was finally found.

It was a row of fresh footprints.

It looks like a lot of people are heading in the same direction, so the footprints are pretty cluttered.

It is obviously the safest and least dangerous way to go along the path that others have traveled.

It's not too comfortable to walk someone else's path and let someone else be your guide dog.

Zheng Tuo actually had a plan.

His goal is very simple, to complete the assessment intact and join Luoxian Sect.

As for the others, it is not within the scope of my own consideration.

Follow the footprints, go all the way, and walk for a day.

If it was as he had guessed, he followed the footprints without encountering any danger.

All the way is smooth, it is as easy as traveling in the virgin forest.

That being said.

Zheng Tuo did not relax a bit.

There are two wind chasing charms attached to his thighs at all times, ready to run at any time.

The spirit is highly concentrated, and the surrounding mountains and forests are always vigilant.

For fear that a wild beast would suddenly appear and kill him.

After all, it is the assessment period, so there is nothing wrong with being cautious.

Look at the time, the sunset is in the east, and it is getting late.

Zheng Tuo had to stop.

It is dangerous to drive at night, especially in this virgin forest, the risk factor is at least ten plus signs.

Before it gets dark, find a hidden safe house and talk.

Familiar with the road, make a good safe house.

Then, Zheng Tuo unloaded his backpack.

A backpack is not an ordinary backpack, it is a simple space storage device.

Because he is not an immortal cultivator, he can only use this simple storage device.

You can't be like a cultivator, a small bag can hold a lot of items.

Take out a hundred explosive charms from the backpack and carefully bury them nearby.

The first-order explosive magic talisman is powerful enough to injure the first-order qi-refining stage immortal cultivator.

It is the only attack-type charm that ordinary people can use.

After placing a hundred explosive charms near the safe house.

Zheng Tuo was still worried.

Continue to take out a hundred alarm charms from the backpack.

Turn the nearby [-]-meter range into an early warning area.

If any creature enters this area, he will receive a beep, beep, beep alarm.

Zheng Tuo felt much more at ease after the alarm talisman was completed.

the other side.

In the virgin forest, which is two days away from him.

"Everyone rest in place, it's too dangerous to travel at night, tomorrow morning will be rushing." Wang Ze instructed everyone.

"Just rest like this?"

"Yes! How do you sleep!"

"No, there is grass all around, and there is no dry place, so you can sleep all night without getting cold."

"It's not just grass, but also all kinds of snakes, insects, mice and ants. I'm afraid I'll get sick after sleeping one night."

One by one, everyone expressed their dissatisfaction with the status quo.

They didn't bring any tents or anything, not even food.

The current situation is that I am hungry and sleepy, and I have to take the assessment, which is almost killing myself.

"Let's get over it, after all, it's an assessment, and it's normal to suffer a little."

Damn!

If it weren't for the purpose of winning people over and laying a foundation for the future, I would be too lazy to care about you.

A group of rubbish, resting in the open air, complaining about the heavens and the others, and cultivating a fart immortal.

Wang Ze cursed in his heart.

"Ow ooh..."

The sound of wolf howling echoed in this mountain forest, and in an instant, everyone was awake.

"I'm still sleeping, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see the sunshine tomorrow."

"What a sin!"

"Be patient."

Everyone was struggling, gathered together to keep warm, and it was difficult to fall asleep.

On the other hand, Zheng Tuo.

After entering the safe house.

Take out the prepared bacon, small cabbage, shallots, miso, big white steamed buns, and clean water from the backpack.

The food is very ordinary, so please feel sorry for your stomach.

After all, it is the assessment stage, so you can't ask for too much.

After the assessment is over, eat something good to make up for it.

Eat and drink well.

Zheng Tuo took out a clean quilt and spread it.

Use a warm-up charm to warm the bed and lie down comfortably in the bed.

what……

I have to say that after walking for a day, he was indeed a little tired.

However, be cautious.

On the left side of the pillow, there is a smoke amulet.

To the right of the pillow lay a sharp dagger.

After finishing, Zheng Tuo fell asleep peacefully.

Silent all night.

Day two.

"what……"

Zheng Tuo yawned and got up early.

It may be that he is used to sleeping in a safe house, and his mental state is good.

Check the traps you have set around you first.

After confirming that the traps are not passive, put all the traps away and use them next time.

According to yesterday's plan, continue to follow the footprints left by the person ahead.

the other side.

Wang Ze, who hadn't slept all night, got up energetically.

One by one, listless, like eggplants hit by frost, with their heads drooping, their whole beings are not well.

"Everyone works harder. When we arrive at Sunset Mountain, even if we complete the assessment, we will be disciples of Luoxianzong in the future, and we will also be immortals."

Wang Ze continued to pour chicken soup for everyone.

Everyone is helpless, and it is better to have chicken soup than nothing.

With dark circles under his eyes, dragging his tired body, he continued to explore the road ahead.

at the same time,

The rear is two days away from them.

Zheng Tuo walked lightly, enjoying wildflowers and mountain views.

Feeling the beauty and harmony from nature along the way, the mood is indescribably comfortable.

have to say.

The air quality in the Eastern Region is much better than in the previous life.

Inhaled into the lungs, it turned out to be sweet.

Thank God, thank you mom and dad.

in this way.

Zheng Tuo hurried during the day and rested after setting up traps at night.

All the way unobstructed, without encountering any danger.

Until the fifth day after the examination.

Zheng Tuo had a serious expression, looking at the messy footprints in front of him.

The road ahead diverged, roughly estimated to have six forks.

How to do?
Of the six roads, which one is not dangerous.

After thinking about it, there is only one most prudent way.

That is to walk every road.

Although it is time-consuming, it is worth wasting time compared to being able to successfully complete the assessment.

Among the six paths, Zheng Tuo did not choose randomly.

Instead it took almost an hour.

Use a magnifying glass to analyze which road has the most people.

Relatively speaking, the more people walking on the road, the safer it is.

Ah!
After determining the route, Zheng Tuo saw that it would be dark in less than eight hours.

To be safe, I'm leaving tomorrow.

Whatever you do, don't be in a hurry, just take it step by step.

Xiuxian asked, how could it be that easy.

If you are not careful, you may hang up inexplicably at some point.

With this thought in mind, Zheng Tuo had a fragrant dinner.

Then I climbed up an ancient tree in a good mood, lay on the branches, sipped tea, and enjoyed the beauty of the sunset.

The end of life is like the sun in front of you, and it will eventually escape into darkness.

So the result is not important, what is important is every minute, every second, every bit of experience.

Those painful and happy days are proof of my own life.

I know that one day I will forget that I was standing here, watching the last dance of the sunset.

But I believe that something has left an indelible mark on my soul.

Zheng Tuo wrote down such a passage in his diary.

Carefully put the diary away and carry it with you.

Back in the safe house, lie down in a comfortable bed and sleep peacefully.

"How far is the damn Sunset Mountain."

Wang Ze looks disheveled, and the handsome guy has turned into a senior beggar.

Behind him, a group of guys who looked even more sluggish.

No danger was encountered.

Just rushing on the road has exhausted this group of people.

Day two.

Zheng Tuo got up early.

Move your muscles and bones, wash your face, go to the toilet, and eat breakfast by the way.

Ready to go.
