Best Son-in-law

"Actually, we are not walking in vain. We have been walking along the road, getting closer and closer to the outside. It wants us to enter the innermost place, but logically speaking, isn't the innermost place where we just went?" Xia Menglan analyzed.

"That means that as long as we find the center of the forest, we can find the way in?" Yan Wanyun's eyes lit up.

"If it were that easy, this wouldn't be the Five Poison Peaks. The older generation in the village said that there was more than one person who entered the Five Poison Peaks, and he was one of the more capable people in the village. As a result, this person never came out at all. This is It shows that Wudu Peak is definitely not simple. What we can think of can’t be thought of by those in the village? I’m just afraid now. This road will actually change. Its purpose is obvious, it is to trap us here and wait for us. If the spirit breaks down, it will come back and collect it ready." Li Fan said thoughtfully.

"What do you mean?" Xia Menglan was slightly stunned after hearing what Li Fan said.

"The way to break the situation is definitely not what we see in front of us. We must take a different path to break the situation. This thing is very smart. It is plotting against us." Li Fan said with squinted eyes.

"What do you think that thing could be?" Xia Menglan asked gently.

"It's probably it, I'm not sure." Li Fan shook his head.

"Then how should we go now?" Yan Wanyun looked unhappy. She had lost her mind since entering the mountain. Now she has lost two students one after another. Her psychology has collapsed, and Li Fan is still by her side. Only words made her calm down a little.

"The fact that we keep walking in circles shows that we are not walking in a straight line at all. Now let's walk in a straight line, regardless of what is in front of us, whether there is a road or not. If there is no road, just cut down the trees! This thing relies on trees to confuse us." Li Fan said through gritted teeth. , he didn’t like the feeling of being plotted against, even by an animal.

This animal is really cunning, and its intelligence is no less than that of ordinary people.

It's definitely not an ordinary species.

After listening to Li Fan's words, Yan Wanyun and Xia Menglan both took knives and started to act.

"We can't use these trees and roads as reference points. We have to find one person to walk forward with his eyes closed without being affected by anything. Maybe he can walk out in a straight line, and the other two will open the way." Li Fan said.

"I'll do it." Yan Wanyun pursed her lips and said, "I still have some feelings about straight lines. After all, I have been painting for so many years."

"Okay, Teacher Yan, the two of us will escort you and clear the way for you. You can move forward with confidence." Li Fan nodded and said.

"Okay." Yan Wanyun also nodded, slowly closed her eyes, and walked forward along the road.

In this way, Li Fan and Xia Menglan, one on the left and one on the right, followed Yan Wanyun.

As expected, the road was slanted, and Yan Wanyun walked in a straight line, but she walked into the surrounding woods.

Li Fan and Xia Menglan chopped down the tree with their knives without saying a word.

Sweating as they walked forward with Yan Wanyun, they truly took a different path.

But at this time, a pair of slender eyes appeared again, looking at the three of them coldly, with a bit more teasing in their eyes.

…

Besides, Qi Wenjing followed the light to a road in the middle. This road was also filled with heavy fog and eerie, but there was a faint, vague light ahead.

This light was now all Qi Wenjing's hope. She was trembling with fear, sweating profusely, and kept shouting, hoping to hear an echo, but she never heard any echo.

Qi Wenjing staggered forward, bit by bit towards her last hope.

Now she was too frightened, to the point of numbness.

In this way, Qi Wenjing kept walking, and the light gradually began to magnify in front of her eyes.

The hope in Qi Wenjing's heart was completely ignited, and all her fears turned into grievances. At this moment, she wanted to throw herself into Yan Wanyun's arms and cry loudly.

"Teacher Yan, Guide Li, I'm here." Qi Wenjing had shouted like this so many times that her voice was already hoarse.

Despite enduring the severe pain, Qi Wenjing never gave up.

After stumbling along the way, Qi Wenjing finally saw the birthplace of light.

That was not Yan Wanyun's or Li Fan's torch, but a lantern on a mysterious ancient house.

At this moment, Qi Wenjing saw clearly what the house looked like.

It is magnificent, with high walls and red lanterns flying up, one after another.

"What kind of place is this? A mirage?" Qi Wenjing rubbed her eyes weakly, but she still saw this mysterious ancient house in front of her.

Since it is a house, there should be a family there.

Qi Wenjing had no reason to avoid this house.

Firstly, even if she avoids this house, she can't find another way to get there, so there is still no hope. On the contrary, there is still some hope here. Secondly, such a house is very likely to be a house by the mountain. As long as there is a home, she will be saved.

Therefore, after Qi Wenjing was stunned for a while, she walked towards this ancient house without hesitation.

The closer she got, the more Qi Wenjing saw the magnanimity of this big house. The walls of the house were four to five meters high, and she looked very small standing next to it.

There are nine steps in this house, and the threshold reaches directly to Qi Wenjing's knees.

Like a giant's house.

The huge red door is more like a city wall door.

The giant stone lions on both sides are particularly scary.

Just when Qi Wenjing was paying attention to the giant stone lions on both sides, the thick red ink on the door seemed to be flowing down.

Her mind felt like an electric shock. She regained consciousness and immediately looked at the huge door.

Qi Wenjing didn't say anything for a while. Standing in front of this huge door, she felt a cold feeling.

To advance or not to advance is now a question Qi Wenjing is thinking hard about.

"Squeak."

The giant door was pushed open by Qi Wenjing. She gritted her teeth and raised her head, and found that a giant incense burner appeared in front of her. It looked the same as the one in the temple, but it looked bigger.

"Is there anyone?" Qi Wenjing called carefully. Her voice was hoarse and it was very difficult to speak.

The yard is not empty, with some green plants, rockeries, small bridges and pavilions. There are also stone stools and stone tables in the pavilion, which looks like an elegant place for ancient people to discuss ancient and modern poetry and paintings.

Surrounded by long corridors, it also looks particularly huge.

Qi Wenjing looked very small in a place like this.

"Is there anyone there?" Qi Wenjing called again, this time louder, but no one responded to her, she just heard her own echo.

The goosebumps on Qi Wenjing's body stood up again. She suddenly thought about how such a big mansion could be here. It was obviously an ordinary village, and it was an ancient building with nine floors. How could a person with a high status like this? In such a small mountain village that is isolated from the world?

And why couldn’t I see it before, but I saw it when I entered the mountain? When she was halfway up the mountain, she scanned the surroundings clearly and did not say that she saw such a big mansion.

What's more, she was listening to Li Fan telling legends and stories along the way, but she had never heard of such a giant house.

Her mind began to replay the scene just now, and her body felt like an electric shock.

"This is not an ordinary realm. This is definitely not an ordinary realm! I have just seen the dangers on this mountain. How can I still believe that this place is safe? And the five roads, the Five Poison Peaks, are the middle one!" Qi At this moment, Wen Jing suddenly thought of many things, which could be completely connected. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

"Five poison peaks, five roads, what are the five poisons?" Qi Wenjing's mind was very confused, but she had a very clear consciousness.

No matter what, she must leave here quickly, otherwise disaster will happen if she stays.

However, just when Qi Wenjing turned around and wanted to go out through the door.

Just hearing a loud "bang", the door was closed.

Of course Qi Wenjing was not willing to be locked in. She lay on the door and beat desperately, hoping to open it, but the door was indifferent.

The pull bolt on the door was too high and Qi Wenjing couldn't reach it at all.

Even if she steps on a very high stool, she can't reach it.

Size has now become Qi Wenjing's fatal injury.

So Qi Wenjing started to look around, hoping to find a high stool for her to step on and open the door.

With this idea in mind, Qi Wenjing began to search in the yard to see if there was any ladder.

But there was nothing she wanted in the yard, and she couldn't move the stone tables and benches in the pavilion.

In the end, Qi Wenjing could only go to a house in the north of the yard.

It is surrounded by walls, except for a large house on the north side.

Qi Wenjing came to the house, gritted her teeth and pushed open the door, but this time she was smarter, she came with a stone in her arms.

After opening the door, Qi Wenjing immediately blocked the door with stones.

This room is obviously a guest room, with an Eight Immortals table, a living room, and two side rooms on both sides. The side rooms are blocked by curtains, so you can't see what's inside.

There are two rows of tables and chairs in the living room, with the main seat in the middle. There is an incense burner and two tea bowls on the main seat table. Green smoke curls up from the incense burner, as if someone else lives here.

There are three paintings above the main seat. The one on the right depicts a dragon crossing the river. This dragon is running towards thunder and calling for rain, and its eyes are filled with fierce light, as if it is very ferocious and evil. It is extremely frightening.

The painting on the left shows a five-headed giant snake with a huge head and eyes like copper bells, glowing with blood. This five-headed giant snake is entangled on a mountain peak. There is a contrast in the middle. The snake's eyes are as big as a small pavilion on the mountain. .

Seeing this painting, Qi Wenjing was shocked. Aren't these snake eyes the same pair of huge blood pupils he saw? Is it possible that there is a five-headed giant snake on this mountain?

Qi Wenjing was shocked by her own thoughts.

Thinking about it this way, it was so scary. Those blood pupils seemed to be still staring at her.

Not only that, Qi Wenjing couldn't help but have an even more terrifying thought. When she thought of it, her body trembled involuntarily.
