C297 (1/2)
After sitting down, Li You Jie took a deep breath and said to me, ”Brother Tian Luo, let me be honest with you, I already felt that this mission was extremely dangerous, after all, we were dealing with unknown creatures. When I first called you over to help, I didn't expect the situation to be this serious, and it even almost caused you to lose your life with us.”
”You also said that when I first promised you, I didn't plan to go with the flow. I was just worrying about not having the opportunity to train myself, so when you brought me out, I should be thanking you.” I laughed as I drank my water.
Li Rujie patted my shoulder, and said in a pleased tone, ”Don't say anymore, I've discovered that you've really brought me too many surprises. Whether it's that Gui Sha, your detoxifying blood, or that Thousand Li Tracking Technique you used, they've filled me with admiration. No wonder Secretary Luo treats you so well, it seems like even the upper echelons of the Wuming Sect have placed great importance on you.”
As far as I know, my second uncle, Daoist Master Tian, seems to have a very close relationship with the special task force, and he is their external support. If something happens that the special task force cannot solve, they will send my second uncle out of the mountain, and my second uncle's cultivation is the highest among all of my elders.
However, I don't know much about the rest of the book. There are still several tall mountains separating the two of us, but he is my goal. Sooner or later, I will stand at the same height as him.
In this mission, I have played a lot of roles and truly understood the benefits of being a cultivator. However, the road ahead is long, and I still have a lot of paths to walk. Only by going through enough hardships will I be able to become stronger.
After we had eaten and drank our fill, we rested for a while. After about half an hour, Li Renjie urged everyone to continue moving forward.
At this time, Li You Jie came close to me and asked, ”Brother Tian Luo, how far are we from the injured Shan Kui? Can you feel the blood clay man?”
I lowered my head to look at the bloody figure in my hand and nodded. ”I don't know how far it is, but I can feel its aura from the bloody figure. It shouldn't be far. It's definitely within a ten kilometer radius. Let's move forward …”
”Yes.” Li Renjie replied. Then, he walked with me to the front, continuing to travel through the old forest.
After walking forward for about half an hour, we reached the end of the valley. A large mountain appeared in front of us, and when we reached the top, we saw a lot of rocks rolling down the mountain. A cave appeared in the pile of rocks, and it was pitch black as it let out cold air.
The bloody clay figure in my hand just happens to be pointing towards the entrance of this cave.
I brought the group to a stop near the entrance of the cave. Everyone raised their heads to look at the mountain above us.
At this moment, Zhang Chen said from the side, ”A few days ago, it was raining heavily. There was a mudslide on the mountain, and a hole appeared. Look at the rocks on the ground and the marks on the hillside, they seem to be quite new.”
