Spring Trail, just from the appearance, is the most quiet and beautiful one among the four roads.
Aside from Yue Jinghua, who knew the danger of the Four Seasons Trail, Jin Nuo and his party and everyone in the July Mercenary Squad, after entering the Spring Trail, their nerves that had been tense for a day and night immediately relaxed.
Outside the Sky Dragon Palace, most of the Canglong Continent has entered winter.
Even in the hinterland of the high mountains, the Wusheng Town, which is nourished by hot springs and geothermal heat, is now a scene of trees and flowers dying.
But on this spring path, it is a different scene.
After walking a few steps, the view of the path that can only accommodate two people gradually widened.
The unknown tender grass, like cashmere, swarmed on the soles of the feet, making the heart go soft.
At the end of the path, there is a dense forest that can't be seen at a glance.
The tall dark green trees are as dense as one piece, and the emerald color is like a brush dipped in watercolor, almost full of it.
Like a small forest that has been closed for thousands of years, a group of tourists are welcome. Not only are there no dangerous mysterious beasts on the Chunri trail, but even the spirit trees are particularly docile.
Because no one picks them, all kinds of precious herbs grow around the forest.
There must be weirdness when things go wrong, Yueyue Jinghua can't help but think to himself, I don't know what kind of amazing character Mo Kang, the dragon slaying hero, can create four completely different spring, summer, autumn and winter here out of thin air. scenes, and each scene is lifelike.
Although Yue Jinghua and Jin Nuo were still vigilant, everyone finally felt relieved after Weiwei tentatively picked some herbs and there was still no enemy attack.
Everyone rejoiced, the imperial soldiers rejoiced that they chose this trail and laughed at those unlucky ghosts who chose other paths.
Even Jin Nuo slackened a bit after walking for more than half of the time. Even the soldiers put away their shields for self-defense and did not stop him.
"Brother Yue, look, that's hops," Wei Wei, who was relaxed, pointed to an unusually lush light green plant in front of him.
Earlier, it was Weiwei who discovered hops on the Xuanshou Ridge, and Yue Jinghua and Guo Ziyu brewed hops together.
It's just that although Weiwei told Yue Jinghua where the hops were picked, due to the particularity of the environment where the hops grow, there are not many hops distributed along the Xuanshou Mountain Ridge.
Yue Jinghua also tried to cultivate artificially, but she didn't know whether it was the climate or other reasons. Even with the help of Yuechen, she failed to cultivate a large amount of hops.
This directly led to a bottleneck in beer brewing, and it could only be supplied in a few limited places such as Helen's Tavern and Baiyue Pavilion in Wusheng Town.
But in this spring trail, Yue Jinghua and others discovered a large area of hops with an amount of nearly ten mu.
Looking at the green hops, Wei Wei couldn't help running forward, wanting to collect some back.
Hop is not an offensive plant, so Yue Jinghua didn't stop it. Several soldiers in front also walked into the forest, looking for precious spirit wood, trying to collect some spirit wood cores.
Just when everything is in harmony.
In Yue Jinghua's mind, a certain taut string suddenly snapped.
Almost instinctively, she flew towards Weiwei who was still picking hops.
"whoosh whoosh"
It was as if several archers were ambushing all around, and countless green shadows emerged from the ground and the sky out of thin air.
Tick-tock, a piece of wet and viscous fell onto Weiwei's face, it was hot.
She stared wide-eyed, watching blood gushing out from Yue Jinghua's left arm.
Everything happened too fast, the speed of the attacker's movements and the power of the attack were unprecedented in Yue Jinghua's life.
Yue Jinghua could clearly feel that a certain tendon on her left arm was torn abruptly, and the severe pain made her unable to move her entire left arm.
Fortunately, such an injury was on Yue Jinghua's body. Her physical fitness, having undergone the double baptism of Qingye and Jiaolong forging, was much stronger than ordinary people.
The worst thing is that just now Yue Jinghua didn't see clearly what was attacking her.
It seems to come from the hops, and it seems to come from the dense arbor forest in front of me.
With her body skills, she could have dodged this blow, but if she dodged it, that fatal blow would be enough to kill Wei Wei who was not as good as Yuxuan.
"Tsk, I actually saw blood," Yue Jinghua prostrated on the ground, in order to appease Weiwei, she did not forget to rub Weiwei's head with her uninjured right hand.
"Captain," the members of the July squad, Jin Nuo and others rushed over immediately when they heard the sound.
"Don't act rashly," Yue Jinghua ordered in a cold voice, "Feng Buhui, Qin Dongting, you protect Salman and Auntie, Brother Jin Nuo, please help me watch over Yue Chen and Ye Zi, this forest is weird."
Without waiting for Jin Nuo to react, he suddenly heard screams from Jin Nuo's right.
Everyone looked back and saw that an imperial soldier had already been attacked. The armor used to protect the body was shattered, and there was a finger-sized hole in the soldier's right abdomen.
Seeing his brother who was born and died, dying in front of his own eyes, Jin Nuo's expression darkened.
In a short period of time, the sneak attacker attacked two people with one face, but they didn't find any trace of the sneak attacker. This incident made everyone fall into panic.
Wei Wei helped Yue Jinghua up, and the sneak attacker disappeared after one blow, and the surrounding area was still sunny and lush.
It's just that this bright world was cast in a shadow because of the death of an imperial soldier.
Jin Nuo squatted down, and gently closed the eyes of the imperial soldier who hadn't had time to close them, "Go at ease, your family, I will settle it down for you."
"Everyone listens to the order and enters a state of first-level martial law. We will find out the murderer," Jin Nuo ordered angrily.
But not long after the order was issued, everyone discovered that they had lost their way in this seemingly small forest.
Walking around, they are still surrounded by that piece of hops.
"Ye Zi, is there a way to find the exit?" Yue Jinghua's face was pale.
Wei Wei beside her bit her lip tightly, looking worriedly at Yue Jinghua whose complexion was getting worse and worse.
Despite Weiwei's treatment, the wound caused by the unknown object that attacked Yue Jinghua just now, still can't heal.
The blood flowed continuously, as if there was some special toxin on the wound that was preventing the wound from healing. If there was still no way to heal, even a body made of iron would not be able to withstand such bleeding.
"No, I can't control the spirit trees, flowers and plants in this area. It seems that someone more powerful than me is controlling this area," Ye Zi was discouraged. This was the first time she encountered such a situation after coming to Canglong Continent. .
