Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 409 The Enemy Meets (1)
"This place is really hard to like." Jun Xiuran looked at the ghostly river that suddenly covered the sky and the sun in front of him, his eyes flickered, and he couldn't help sighing.

Duanmu Tian nodded in agreement, and said, "We should turn around, enter the jungle, and walk south."

While she was talking, she took out a compass from her bosom, carefully confirmed the direction, and pulled Jun Xiuran into the jungle.

Jun Xiuran held a map in his hand, which was not very detailed, but it had been clearly indicated that it was Concubine Xian who spent several days before they left to collect what she knew. , All the detailed information that is still in memory is drawn on this map to prevent them from getting lost or shifting their direction in this dark jungle.

"Hey, it's getting farther and farther." His Highness stared at the map and walked forward facing the south, sighing.

The map shows that the location of the Yu Clan should be in front of where they were just now, a little bit to the north, and the shortest path should be to continue walking forward. In theory, it can even be reached directly.Moreover, the distance is not very far. Based on the footsteps of him and Tiantian, they will arrive in two or three days.

Of course, this is a theoretical straight-line distance, and the dangers, detours, and other mistakes that will be encountered on the way are all ignored.

But now, they have turned to the south, isn't it just farther away from the gathering place of the Yu clan?It's just the opposite!

He refolded the map casually and put it in his arms. He actually remembered almost all the contents on it, but he just took it with him in case he might accidentally overlook something, and it was more convenient to take it out at any time to communicate with the surrounding environment. A more careful cross-reference.

"It's still a long way to see the only mountain in the legendary jungle!"

"So it is even more important to walk in the right direction, otherwise, if you deviate a little, you may not even be able to see the mountain."

"Fortunately, the concubine mother has carefully marked this road, and some other features that can be distinguished. Otherwise, in this vast jungle, the sky is blocked out, and there are trees and jungles everywhere. If you look around, you will look the same in any direction, and you will not get lost. No wonder."

Duanmu Tian nodded, took out the compass and didn't take it back, he kept carefully checking the direction they were going.

She had seen the layout map of the mainland before, so she naturally knew that the area of ​​the jungle is not very large, but it is definitely not small. If you get lost in it, it is not easy to get out safely. The most important thing is that in this The place is running around, and it's easy to come across something that can kill someone.

The two of them went up the river, and now they finally entered the depths of the dark forest again, walking on the fallen leaves, which were piled up so soft that one couldn't help but walk on them. A little bit unsteady.

Fortunately, both of them are people with profound skills, walking lightly and landing silently, carefully paying attention to the surrounding environment, and their forward speed is not slow at all, it seems that they have just entered the jungle and disappeared in the blink of an eye, and they are nowhere to be seen from the outside .

The river flows slowly, just like it has been for thousands of years, and it will not change because of anyone's coming and leaving.It meanders out from the depths of the dark and bottomless jungle, watering the vegetation and creatures along the way, and giving birth to all kinds of strange things that are full of rivers.

At this time, a shadow loomed in the deep place. It was a wooden raft made of thick-legged tree branches, and there were more than ten or twenty people standing on it, coming from the deep place. flow down.

"Your Highness, we are coming out!"

Someone saw the bright light ahead, and couldn't help cheering, because in the past day and a half, they experienced another terrifying chase, tried their best, and after throwing down the corpses of seven companions, they managed to Finally escaped.

Some people turned their heads and looked back, with lingering fear all over their faces.

This place, is horrible!Especially in there, it is like a purgatory, so that they don't want to get close to it even when they are dreaming in this life!

The light in front became brighter and brighter, and everyone's attention was focused on the place where the white light irradiated, so that when crows and vultures suddenly sounded above their heads, everyone was frightened. With a jump, two people almost fell off the raft into the river, if the people beside them hadn't reacted quickly to hold them back.

Something flapped its wings and flew over their heads. The sound of chirping, flapping wings, and the sound of the wind in the forest and the sound of leaves rubbing together were interwoven into a creepy and weird song. At this time, their surroundings were in darkness, and the white light over there still couldn't reach the place where they were, so it became more and more mysterious, until it made people's scalps explode and their whole bodies shivered.

They drew their swords one after another, leaning back against each other and quickly looked around.

The light was dim, and there seemed to be unknown birds flapping their wings and whirling continuously above their heads. The wind brought by the wings blew over their heads, cheeks, and into their necks, making them feel cool.

The "quack" sound is the most ghostly, piercing people's eardrums and making people's heads swell.

One, two, three... there were countless numbers of these birds circling and flying above their heads, surrounding them, and then suddenly one of them rushed straight towards them.

The person who was facing it immediately swung his sword to slash, but heard a "ding", like the sound of metal swords colliding, the bird was sent flying, but the person also took half a step back, until he was with the bird. The people behind him collided and stopped.

"what happened?"

The people next to him were startled and asked, especially when they saw that the bird dangled in the air after being knocked out, and then returned to its original shape, as if it hadn't suffered any damage at all, they were even more surprised, even horrified. up.

Those of them who are still here are all masters of martial arts, otherwise they would not be able to live now, but now facing this bird, a sword swing did not hurt it at all, on the contrary, he retreated With one step, the wooden raft under their feet also swayed in the river twice.

The retreating man stood firm, stared at the unknown bird hovering above his head, and said, "Sorry, I underestimated the enemy just now, I didn't expect this bird to be so powerful, and its beak Its claws and claws are so hard that they fight like eagles."

This bird doesn't look big, at most the size of a starling, but it has the impact of an eagle and a slightly harder beak and claws.

Just now that person was careless and suffered a small loss.

And hearing what he said, the other people beside him couldn't help but raise their vigilance, looking up at the flying birds circling above their heads, on guard.
