After my cross kick, both Bian Dashou and the snow mandrill were filled with doubts, but I was already yelling: "You can't do anything!? What about your ability to fly through the clouds and mist!?"
Of course, my voice cannot be heard. Bian Dashou struggled to get up from the snow, but what I didn't expect was that this stubborn man would not retreat but instead moved forward, walking step by step in the direction where the snow mandrill came from!
This move of Bian Dashou really shocked me, and also angered the dozen or so ferocious monsters in front of me! Suddenly my heart felt cold! I thought to myself that Da Shou here is so stubborn! Can't you run? All the snow mandrills roared at the same time and rushed towards Bianshou again!
Bian Dashou turned a blind eye to these snow mandrills, as if he was looking forward to death! Snow Mandrill moved so fast that I didn't even have time to think about it, so I rushed forward and grabbed Bian Dashou by the collar of his clothes, and at the same time I hugged a tree next to me with my left hand. With one hand and the other, he grabbed Bian Dashou and threw him forward! Although my strength is not great, it is enough to keep him out of the attack range of the snow mandrills. The snow mandrills did not expect that Bian Dashou would rush forward in such an incredible way, and just slipped out from under the feet of the jumping snow mandrill in front of him! More than a dozen snow mandrills all flew into the air. Each one lost their balance and fell to the ground. Then they quickly got up.
I had already stood upright at this time and subconsciously touched my back. Under normal circumstances, I must be carrying the Shiyan Sword on my back, so I touched the rope buckle with the Shiyan Sword's scabbard with both hands, but I found nothing! Only then did I remember that the Shiyan Sword was not with me! I secretly screamed in my heart, but I didn't stop. I reached into my pocket again. Fortunately, I never leave my spirit gourd!
I couldn't care less immediately and opened the gourd. The mantra to release the wolf spirits was almost shouted. The moment I shouted the mantra, all six wolf spirits appeared beside me. However, I was greatly disappointed when the wolf spirits appeared. The wolf spirits and the snow mandrills were not at the same level at all. It can be said that they were born with restraint. Although the wolf spirits had my order, they did not dare to step forward! Seeing the snow mandrills rushing towards Bian Dashou again, I took out the gourd and shouted the "Soul Absorbing Curse"!
After reciting the mantra, more than a dozen snow mandrills fell to the ground at the same time! I was sweating a lot! I thought that if I didn't follow Da Shou here, I'm afraid he would have died a hundred times before he even reached the Li family's ancestral grave! It seems that I have to stay by his side and watch him. If there is any accident, I can take action immediately. Otherwise, history may have to change!
Bian Dashou, who had been moving forward bravely, felt that there was no movement behind him, so he stopped and looked behind him. However, he saw that a dozen huge snow mandrills behind him all fell to the ground dead, and then he looked thoughtfully further behind him. It turned out that the group of people who were escaping were hiding behind the trees on the outermost edge of the forest and looking in the direction of Bian Dashou. When they saw that nothing was wrong, they all ran back in a hurry.
Bian Dashou ignored them and continued to turn around and walk deeper into the woods. At this time, someone caught up and continued to dissuade: "Sir, I think we should wait until the snow stops before we go! What else can we do if we don't have a safe place ahead!" Bian Dashou shook his head firmly: "This road is dangerous. It is destined. If you are afraid, just go back. I will not force it! I have a mission, and I will not go back even one step until I achieve my mission!"
Others originally wanted to say something, but after hearing Bian Dashou's words, they all fell silent. Nearly a hundred people had different expressions. Originally, I thought these people were hesitant to continue. Even the face of the man named Jia Huan had changed color several times. However, I heard someone whispering in the crowd: "Li Laosan, let's go back! Your sister-in-law is the only one left in my family. If I were to stay here, I would have a wife above me and a wife below." What are you doing!" Then the man named Li Laosan also came back: "That's not true! The oldest brother in my family is only eight years old. The eldest brother and the second brother have all left to serve in the army, so I am the only one left to take the lead. Ah!" Then there seemed to be another voice saying: "Don't talk nonsense, didn't you see what my lord just said? It must be blessed by God! Besides, if we go back now, who can we get the one hundred taels of silver per person?"
Only then did I realize that these people were thinking about money!
Bian Dashou stood at the front of the team with his hands behind his back and asked without looking back: "Have you thought about everything?" After saying that, he didn't care about others, raised his legs and walked towards the depths of the jungle again. Jia Huan Seeing this, Li Cheng and Li Cheng hurriedly followed. Seeing Jia Huan and Li Cheng step forward, the other archers followed angrily. There are only sixty villagers left. Look at me and I look at you. But after a while, these people began to make decisions. Some shook their heads and turned away with a bitter smile, while others gritted their teeth and followed Bian Dashou's pace.
Needless to say, those who left had no choice but to turn back after weighing the pros and cons, knowing that it was not worth losing their lives for a hundred taels of silver, or having other reasons. There are no less than thirty people who continue to follow. Although these people have ugly faces, their eyes are firm. They are either blinded by money or they must be the masters who are really in trouble and have to risk their lives.
Although I scolded Bian Dashou for being stubborn, I actually knew that in this case, even if he waited for the snow to stop before leaving, it would still be very difficult and dangerous, not to mention it was hard to say whether the snow would stop. But one thing is certain, that is, as long as Bian Dashou continues to move forward, there will be dangerous obstacles. As long as he has the intention to retreat and turns around, the sky will be brighter.
Of course, even if he wanted to go back, I would never agree. As my father said, history is always accidental, and some things are just a matter of a thought. If Bian Dashou really went back on a whim at this time, then history might have been completely rewritten.
I smiled helplessly and said to myself that it was all in vain for me to think so much. My purpose was to come here for the truth. Otherwise, I would never know what the forces in the darkness were for. He immediately took back the wolf spirit and continued to follow.
It was relatively safe this time. At least I didn't encounter anything strange after walking in the woods for more than an hour. I felt a little relieved, and then I took out the gourd, ready to see what was going on with the dozens of snow mandrills I had just collected. If these snow mandrills could be trained into animal spirits, it would be a great harvest.
However, I thought too much. I can't control Snow Mandrill's unruly behavior at all. I have tried several times to control and suppress it with my mind, but to no avail. He smiled helplessly, it seemed that he could only keep the souls of these snow mandrills and deal with them later. If that didn't work, he could only forcibly refine the elixir. While thinking about it, I raised my head and looked ahead. At first glance, I frowned. The group of people in front of us all disappeared, and all we could see were the white snow and bare trees.
I looked around subconsciously and found that everyone was not far to my right, still moving forward with difficulty. It seems that I was too serious and didn't pay attention to the direction of their movements. I didn't notice when they turned a corner.
He took a few steps to follow, and continued to advance slowly with Bian Dashou's team. But as they walked, the entire team began to move to the right intentionally or unintentionally. Going further to the right is downhill, which is the direction they came from. My heart tightened and I thought it was wrong! These people are sure to fall for it! Bian Dashou also realized that he was walking on the wrong path. Although the woods were the same, the road under his feet was no longer upward, but gradually downward.
Bian Dashou waved his hand to stop everyone, then turned around and asked Li Cheng: "Where are we now?" Li Cheng looked confused when asked, and replied: "If we go further, we will almost be out of the forest. The forest is a cliff, you have to climb up." Bian Dashou slowly shook his head and said, "No, look at how we are still walking towards the mountain now?" Li Cheng didn't understand what Bian Dashou meant and looked around. After looking at it for a while, he was shocked and said: "That's not right! Why did we go back!?"
