"Arranging an array is different from ordinary things, and it would be too cumbersome to have more than one point. The small holes are only the size of a pinhole, and they don't look like anything, but they may cause extra consumption of profound energy," said a member of the Southern Expedition Army on this trip. , there are all kinds of people, but there is only one array teacher missing.

Long Jiuzun and others checked the profound formation repeatedly, but found nothing unusual, but in the eyes of the genius formation teacher Qian Luo, they noticed a slight difference.

"You mean, because of those small holes, the teleportation array will consume a lot of extra profound energy? But how can the profound array on the baggage ship be explained? The baggage boat has only been moored in Davao Village for one night, and there are no needles around it." The small hole," Yue Jinghua asked Chi Xi, and she was sure that those profound formations were exactly the same as when they were first formed.

Things got worse the next day.

No matter whether it was the supply ship of the Chamber of Commerce or the teleportation array in Davao Village, nothing was found.

For two consecutive nights, there was no result. Not only the villagers of Davao Village, but also the Southern Expeditionary Army began to rumor that there were mandrills infesting the local area.

There are even rumors that they saw ghosts flashing by when they went out to camp in the middle of the night.

The entire camp was panicked, and some even suggested that they leave Davao Village directly.

Long Jiuzun found out the person who spread the rumors, and after a hard lesson, everyone gave up the idea of leaving the team.

In the past few days, Long Jiuzun and Yue Minzhi have been monitoring the two places without sleep, but there is still no result.

The profound strength in the Xuandan still disappeared after one night.

Can't leave, can't stay, the rice grain on the supply ship is decreasing day by day.

Seeing her elder brother struggling all day long, Yue Jinghua was helpless.

After being reminded by Qian Luo, she also took advantage of the darkness for the second time and disappeared to the teleportation array in Davao Village again.

She also saw the needle-sized holes that Qian Luo mentioned, but after careful inspection, there was nothing in those holes, and it didn't look like there was anything unusual.

When questioning the old village head, the old and dim-eyed village head only said that it might be because the teleportation array is too old and the stones in the array are weathered.

In this way, even the last clue was broken.

Time is like sand at the fingertips. Unknowingly, the Southern Expedition Army has been trapped in Davao Village for five days.

On this day, Yue Jinghua was bored and wandered around the village.

At the head of the village, the wooden tiger was in conflict with the people on the supply boat.

"We don't steal or rob, we just borrow, and we don't pay back what we borrow. When the autumn harvest comes, we will have cassava and sorghum to return to them," Mu Hu blushed. He didn't have a good impression of the Southern Expedition Army. , if it is not a last resort, he will not come to the door.

It was the end of summer, and the autumn grain was not yet ripe. Because the Southern Expedition Army was stationed here, the surrounding prey and firewood were also encircled and wiped out.

There is no surplus grain and fresh meat in the village, so the adults are fine, but the elderly and children can't survive without rice.

Seeing that there was plenty of rice and grain on the supply ship, Muhu wanted to borrow some, but he was stopped by the Southern Expeditionary Army who was in charge of guarding the supply ship.

Yue Jinghua saw that one of them was the dandy who made things difficult for her in the school grounds earlier.

After listening to Mu Hu's explanation, the Southern Expedition Army taunted: "Mountain boy, get out of here. Do you want to borrow or not? The boat is full of precious things like abalone, ginseng, wings and belly. You can exchange them with the rags from your village. Can you afford it? Roll as far as you want, and if you talk too much, I will set a fire and burn your whole village down."

"Isn't it? It's unlucky too. It's better to dock at this kind of bird place," several other people echoed.

"You guys are too hateful," Mu Hu rolled up his sleeves, and wanted to step forward to argue, but was persuaded to come down by the accompanying old villagers.

He couldn't ask for food, and he couldn't beat the wolves and tigers of the Southern Expedition Army, so he had to cry and walk away with a few old villagers.

Seeing this, Yue Jinghua grunted and sneered twice, summoned a few giant-winged mosquito kings, and greeted those ignorant dudes.

A panicked cry was heard behind her, and she stepped back, walking in the direction Mu Hu left.

After walking a few steps, I heard the voice of the old village head of Davao Village persuading Mu Hu: "Ah Hu, don't go up the mountain. There are many poisonous insects on the mountain. You forgot that you were bitten by poisonous insects last year and almost lost your life." life."

"Grandpa, I won't go up the mountain, so I'll go outside the village to pick some bitter mustard, and grind it for the servants to eat when I come back." Mu Hu's eyes shrank, he was honest, and he knew he was lying just by looking at him.

Only the old village chief was so dazed that he believed his words.

Mu Hu carried a medicine basket half a person's height on his back, put the machete on his body, wore a coarse cloth, a pair of tattered straw sandals, and went to the back mountain without any antidote.

On the way, he met several Southern Expeditions soldiers and spat at them.

Davao Village is located between several high mountains, and due to quarrying, the surrounding area is mostly barren hills.

There is only a mountain behind the village, because there were too many villagers who were killed or injured by quarrying in the early years, and the corpses had nowhere to be thrown away, and they were thrown everywhere on the mountain behind.

Over time, a large number of poisonous insects that eat rotten flesh of corpses inhabit and breed on the mountain, so it is also called Poisonous Insect Mountain by the local villagers.

The other hills are all bare, but Poisonous Insect Mountain is lush with lush vegetation every summer. However, due to the abundance of poisonous insects, even mercenaries with good cultivation have to make a detour when they come here.

After Mu Hu left the village, he went all the way to Poisonous Chong Mountain.

After Yue Jinghua heard what Mu Hu and the village chief said, he was worried that the fool would be in danger, so he took the unicorn with him, and followed him to the poisonous insect mountain.

After entering the poisonous mountain, Yue Jinghua discovered the danger of this mountain.

Not only are poisonous spirit trees everywhere, but also various poisonous insects crawled on the surface from time to time, and the poisonous miasma made people's brains swell.

Centipedes the size of a thumb crawled out from the crevices in the stones, mosquitoes with venomous stings buzzed all the way, poisonous snakes hung upside down from the bushes, and the worst thing was that due to no one walking all year round, the The grass and trees are already as deep as a person.

If you accidentally step in, you may not even get in the top of your head.

Yue Jinghua possessed miraculous skills and the antidote refined by Feng Chuo, so she moved forward with all her might.

But what surprised her was that Mu Hu who was walking in front of him had a normal expression, without any discomfort.

With his big feet in straw sandals, he crossed the poisonous thorns and crushed the poisonous insects crawling past.

Occasionally, the body will be torn a few holes by thorns, but it will recover immediately.

"Isn't this kid's physique too good-for-nothing?" Yue Jinghua was secretly startled, only thinking that Mu Hu was extremely talented.

At this moment, the wooden tiger walking in front suddenly stopped.

The place where he stopped was a barren forest. The strange thing was that the poisonous insects that were running rampant in all directions, when they arrived here, they all avoided it, as if there were some powerful mysterious beasts here.
