Fantasy: Immortality starts with absorbing demons

Wang Yunkai's face was also full of smiles. Along the way, he kept explaining to everyone how to pass on the next road, what precautions should be taken, and what must be followed closely.

Everyone responded one by one.

Soon, Wang Yunkai led a group of people along a somewhat unclear path for more than two hours.

Suddenly, the road ahead suddenly disappeared, and the mountaintop split open, forming a huge ravine and canyon, as if it had been split open by someone's palm.

You can hear the sound of water flowing on the cliff.

Above the ravine, in front of the group of people, there was a shaky and dilapidated bridge that was in disrepair.

The bridge tilted, and the landing point at the other end seemed to be on a hillside.

"Over there..." Wang Yunkai pointed to the other end of the bridge, "Over there is Wanggui Ridge, which is within the Pingzhou Prefecture area."

"Looking at the endless sky, when will I return my home..." He sighed, as if he remembered something.

I hope to return, I hope to return, and I hope that my loved ones will return soon.

This stone bridge carried the hopes and expectations of many people at a time when official roads were lacking and transportation was inconvenient.

But now, this stone bridge, like him, is old and useless...

"Let's go." He waved his hand and led everyone towards the bridge.

There are holes and gaps on the stone bridge, and the iron cables on it are also heavily rusted and broken. The guardrails are even more incomplete and have basically been corroded by the heavy water vapor.

But that's not the point. What makes Han Yi and his party look ugly is...

In the canyons and ravines, there are loud and unpleasant bird calls from time to time, and in the white mist, there are also the silhouettes of big birds circling across.

puff!

A mandrill bird with a long neck, a human face and a red crown, and black feathers rushed out of the white mist and landed on the stone bridge with a thud.

It fluttered its wings, and a large number of water drops fell like scattered raindrops. On its long sharp beak, there was a fat silvery fish that was constantly struggling. It seemed to be returning from hunting in the fast river below. .

Then, one after another, dozens of black mandrills rushed out of the white mist, landed on the stone bridge, raised their heads, stretched their necks, and swallowed the plump fresh fish in one bite.

In the canyon, there are not many such movements, and it is unknown how many black mandrills breed, hunt and live here.

Obviously, there should be a nest of black mandrills here, and they regard this area as their own territory.

Black mandrills are not very strong individually...but there are so many of them, plus they have to cross a narrow, shaky stone bridge suspended in mid-air...

Even Han Yi didn't dare to say and couldn't guarantee whether he could pass smoothly.

Everyone looked at Mr. Wang.

At this time, Wang Yunkai's face was also ugly. He touched his beard: "Sure enough, it's not what I expected..."

Along the way, he knew from the frequency of encountering black mandrills and the increasing number of bird droppings on the road that there must be a black mandrill nest nearby.

However, this mandrill bird's nest is near the bridge. Obviously, these ferocious beasts also take a fancy to the rich resources here.

"It's okay, don't panic." He said calmly, comforting everyone.

He knew that he might encounter a mandrill bird's nest, and he had been prepared for it...

Wang Yunkai took out something wrapped in green grass leaves from his arms.

When he spread it out, he saw that it was a blood-red paste mixed with several small green herbs.

"Everyone come here, take some, and apply it on your face, neck, arms and other exposed parts." He demonstrated again.

Han Yi looked at the paste object in his hand, stretched out his hand, gently picked up a little bit of the paste, and put it in front of his eyes.

Then, a pungent and tearful smell suddenly rushed into the nasal cavity. The smell was like the hottest chili pepper, pungent and spicy, and went straight into the lungs.

He sneezed several times in succession before he managed to get used to the spiciness.

Han Yi endured the stinging sensation on his skin and applied the paste to the exposed parts.

The others all had red faces and tears in their eyes, holding back to finish all this.

"Okay, with this thing here, as long as you don't look for trouble, there should be no problem." Wang Yunkai slowly stroked his beard, "But please remember, no matter what happens, you can't kill the Mandrill. Birds can only hide."

"Understood." Everyone responded at the same time.

Then, Wang Yunkai took out a few more strong ropes, wrapped them around his waist, and held them tightly in his hands.

This bridge, no matter how good materials were used and no matter how careful it was when it was built, is in disrepair after all, and the stone slabs may collapse at any point. This is considered an insurance.

Wang Yunkai walked at the front, with several guards behind him. At the end of the team were Han Yi and Fatty Zheng. In the safest place in the middle of the team were Tantai Xunzhen and her personal maid, Ya'er.

The handrails on both sides of the stone bridge have long been corroded, leaving only the base, which is left dangling empty. The iron cables are swaying without any force, which looks quite dangerous.

Underfoot and above the ravine, there were also silhouettes of large birds circling and crossing. Under the mist, it was unclear whether they were black mandrills or not.

"Everyone, be careful. There are three blackbirds resting on the right side in front of you. Be careful not to disturb them."

Mr. Wang walked at the front, leading the way and giving careful instructions.

The stone bridge was also full of fog. If you were a little further away, you couldn't see what was happening. He was the most experienced person in the team and had to find the problem first and eliminate the danger.

Soon, everyone walked onto the stone bridge one by one.

And the black-headed birds on the stone bridge, either returning from foraging or crawling to rest, flapped their wings and flew away when they approached, just as Wang Lao said, and didn't dare to get close at all.

The hearts of the people who were originally hanging were instantly stabilized. It was useful, very useful.

"Ya'er, you are not afraid anymore?" In the middle of the team, Tan Tai Xunzhen looked at her good sister with concern.

Although Ya'er was nominally her personal maid, the two grew up together since childhood, and they were like sisters. She always treated Ya'er as her own sister.

Because Ya'er was unable to practice martial arts due to physical reasons, she also took care of Ya'er on weekdays.

Today, since she walked onto the stone bridge, Yaer has become a little abnormal, with a pale face and a clear lack of energy.

But this is normal. Among such a large group of people, Yaer is the only ordinary person. Facing such a large group of black-headed bird beasts, the stone bridge under her feet does not look solid, and it is normal to be afraid.

"Miss, I'm fine." Yaer forced a smile and refused Tan Tai Xunzhen's support. "Miss, you can just walk. Along the way, I always drag you down. I don't want to cause you any more trouble."

"What are you talking about!" Tan Tai Xunzhen said with concern, "You are my sister, and I should care about you..."

The two lowered their heads and talked in a low voice.

But...

Talking and talking...

Yaer looked at the stone bridge that was almost halfway across. The white mist was filled, and no one could be seen clearly except Tan Tai Xunzhen.

She pretended to listen to the young lady talking about some interesting things, pretending to be tired, and shook her wrist.

The face of Qin Lang, who had been haunting her, appeared in her mind again...

Qin Lang...

Her eyes were a little confused.

Then, she gritted her teeth, and when she shook her hands, she flicked her hair and gently threw down a small piece of black stuff.

There was a strange fragrance on this thing, and once it was thrown out, it quickly spread in the fog.

People couldn't smell it, but other creatures could tell it.

The flock of black gulls was slightly agitated.

Everyone also slowed down their pace, but they just thought it was normal. Wang Lao's method was already clever enough. Even though they were so close, no black gulls dared to attack. This was enough.

"Miss, I must take a good bath when I go back. I haven't taken a bath for several days, and I'm a little smelly..."

Ya'er pouted and complained.

"You, you still love cleanliness so much..." Tan Tai Xunzhen's always stern face was also quite bright today, as if he was affected by the fact that he was about to successfully escape the pursuit.

"Hehe..." Ya'er stuck out her tongue mischievously. While pretending to chat with Tan Tai Xun Zhen, she lifted her hair and secretly threw out a black object the size of a small stone.

The black object was about the size of a soybean and fell gently to the ground. There was no sound and nothing could be seen in the white fog.

Behind the team, Han Yi suddenly frowned and looked at Ya'er.

He rushed to Ya'er in a few steps: "What are you doing?"

Han Yi always felt that this Ya'er... seemed to be a little wrong? !

Who would walk on such a high and dangerous broken bridge and comb their hair?

Even if there are some foreign objects, it is enough to comb them once.

But this Ya'er has a fixed action of lifting her hair every once in a while, which is a bit strange.

"No... nothing... what's wrong?" Ya'er's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Han Yi with an innocent and blank face, pretending to know nothing.

She felt that her little action was already hidden enough, and with the fog covering it, it would be impossible for anyone to discover it.

Han Yi looked at Yaer seriously until she lowered her head in fear. Only when Tan Tai Xunzhen looked over suspiciously did he nod, "It's okay. I see you're walking unsteadily. The wind on the stone bridge is strong. Be careful."

"Okay, Brother Han." Yaer nodded obediently.

She was relieved immediately, knowing that she was fine. However, this abominable guy surnamed Han was too sensitive...

Then, Han Yi continued to return to the end of the team and chatted with Fatty Zheng about the things in Pingzhou Prefecture.

In fact, most of the time, Fatty Zheng was talking and he was listening.

Especially now that they were about to return to Pingzhou Prefecture, Fatty Zheng was so excited that he told him about the plan after returning, and persuaded the two brothers to join the Monster Hunting Club together and create a foundation, etc.

Yaer listened to the faint laughter coming from the wind from Han Yi and the fat guy behind, and felt relieved. It should be okay.

The team walked for a while, and she reached out two fingers from her hidden waist bag again, and gently broke off a small piece of black object.

This time, she decided to make her movements smaller to avoid being discovered.

"What is this?" Han Yi's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
