The sky was overcast and looked very low, there were gusts of Yin wind blowing from nowhere, when it brushed past the body, it made one feel chilly.
Beside a patch of swamp overgrown with weeds, there was an indistinct small path in the woods, extending into the swamp.
Zeng ShuShu and the group of Qing Yun sect disciples stood at the entrance of the death swamp, peering in, only to see the vast expanse, everywhere was lush water plants, occasionally a lone tree stood erect among them. There was a faint rotting smell in the air, and above the swamp, a thin mist like grey muslin floated, making one only able to see the nearby area, making it even more mysterious.
Zeng ShuShu frowned, turned around, Qing Yun sect with Xiao YiCai as the leader of the thirteen younger generation disciples, their faces were solemn.
Since ancient times, the death swamp had the infamy of "it's hard to get out once you enter", nobody knew what kind of ferocious things were in there. This time the Qing Yun sect disciples came from the west, Xiao YiCai's identity and cultivation, indistinctly became the leader of the group, right now he stared into the depths of the death swamp for a long time, without batting an eyelid, said to the crowd, "Yesterday, FenXiang Valley Li Xun senior brother sent me a letter, in the words, he very politely expressed that he wants to join hands with us Qing Yun sect to eradicate the evildoers, so they have already entered this death swamp."
There was a commotion behind him, only Lu XueQi looked indifferent, stood beside her senior sister WenMin, staring into the death swamp, quietly. And on the other side, Lin JingYu who was leaving the mountain for the first time, coldly snorted.
Xiao YiCai indifferently said, "Actually what FenXiang Valley's intention, everyone is very clear, this time if they are the first to get that nameless rare treasure, their reputation will naturally be greatly boosted, in the future the Good Faction leader position, I'm afraid there will be someone who wants to have a turn to sit on it." Speaking till here, he paused for a moment and then revealed a trace of smile on his lips, said,
"But everyone do not have to be anxious, I expected that the strange signs had appeared here long ago but until today, no one has obtained that rare treasure, it can be seen that there must be many twists and turns and hardships. They are eager for achievements, let them be, just that after we enter this death swamp, we need to be careful. This death marsh's notoriety has spread far and wide, it's dangerous and unpredictable. Moreover, there might even be Evil Cult's sorcerers here. After entering, everyone must take care of each other. Remember, remember. "
Zeng Shushu said, "Senior Brother Xiao is right. It's getting late, why don't we go in as well?"
Xiao YiCai nodded his head and said: "Alright, after entering, everyone should not be too far away. Also, do not casually land on the ground, in case you are injured by the poisonous insects, or accidentally fall into the bottomless swamp."
Everyone nodded. Xiao YiCai waved his right hand and took out his Seven Star Celestial Sword. He flew up and was the first to fly inside. Then, the Azure Cloud Sect disciples all stood up and turned into dazzling lights of different colors, following closely behind.
After a while, this batch of Qing Yun Sect young elites disappeared into the death marsh's fog, the empty ground at the entrance, suddenly fell into an empty silence, only between the water plants, a water bubble suddenly emerged out of nowhere, [Gu du] sound, reverberated far away from here.
[Pa], Tanis Ka gave a heavy slap on the right side of his neck. A red patch immediately appeared on his neck. But the mosquito that bit him had already flown away with a buzzing sound. It seemed to be triumphantly flying one round in front of his eyes before flying away contentedly.
Tanis Ka's face was bitter, there were small bumps on his face that were bitten by the insects. Although it was not serious but he looked very embarrassed. Right now he was complaining loudly: "What the hell is this place, where did all these damned mosquitoes come from? This, this is only a day's work and half of my blood has been sucked away! "
Tonni who was walking in front turned her head and worriedly said: "Grandpa, are you alright?"
Tanis Ka angrily said: "Nonsense, can you see if I am alright or not?"
Tonni frowned and said: "Strange, these mosquitoes are also strange. Why did they only bite you, me and PingEr sister are alright."
The beautiful lady in yellow standing beside Xiao Huan also stopped in her tracks and turned her head back to look at him. She brought Tonni and Tanis Ka to walk in the middle of this swamp. Tanis Ka was very careful but often he still stepped on mud and water stains. She was like floating clouds and flowing water. Not a single stain stained her body.
Tanis Ka was annoyed. He saw there was a small tree beside him. He carefully went over to test it. The soil was considered firm. He sat down and loudly said: "Tired from walking, let's rest for a while."
Tonni apologetically looked at the beauty in yellow clothes beside her. The lady whom she called PingEr sister smiled and said: "It's alright. Let's rest for a while."
Tonni gratefully looked at her and then looked around. The surroundings were boundless. Slightly further away was the gradually thickening fog. She could not see clearly. Along the way, if not for this PingEr sister leading the way, she really would not be able to walk in.
Right now she could not help but said: "Sister, is it me and grandpa dragging you down? If not you can walk in the air, won't it be much faster?"
That lady smiled sweetly and said: "It's alright. I am not in a hurry to come to this death marsh."
Tonni was surprised and said: "Sister, aren't you here to fight for the treasure in this death marsh for your HeHuan Sect?"
So this beautiful lady in light yellow attire was Jin PingEr who was equally famous with Ghost Li and Qin WuYan. No one knew how Xiao Huan and Zhou YiXian got acquainted with this famous Evil Sect new generation expert.
But Jin PingEr was obviously very fond of Tonni and doted on her. She smiled and said: "Yes. But this time there are so many people here. Let's take it slow, no rush."
Tonni felt puzzled but after thinking carefully, she guessed that it was her HeHuan Sect's secret. It was not good to continue asking. She changed the topic and said, "Sister, we have been in this death marsh for a day. Along the way, I saw that you seemed to be very familiar with this place. Don't tell me you know the way?"
Jin PingEr shook her head and said, "I have never been here before."
Tonni was surprised.
Jin PingEr looked at her and saw Tonni's bright eyes filled with puzzlement. She could not help but smiled and said, "Have you heard of an ancient book remnant, which recorded all kinds of strange things in the world, rare and rare beasts …"
Tonni pondered for a moment and said, "Don't tell me it is [Strange Gods and Demons]?"
Jin PingEr nodded and said, "Exactly. This book was written by an ancient person. It was said that there were originally nine chapters but most of them have been lost. Other than [Demon Beasts – Spiritual Beasts chapter], [Monsters and Monsters chapter], there is also a remnant of [Mountains and Rivers chapter] which I accidentally obtained. At the end of the chapter, there are some records about this death marsh. "
Tonni then understood but before she could say anything, another crisp sound was heard from the other side where Zhou YiXian was. Then she heard Zhou YiXian cursing loudly. Most likely he was bitten by some unknown mosquitoes and his blood was sucked away.
Tonni was after all his granddaughter and granddaughter. She was concerned and then thought that although there were many mosquitoes along the way but they did not harm her and Jin PingEr at all. They only bit Zhou YiXian. There must be something strange. She naturally did not have the ability to do that. So her concern fell on Jin PingEr.
She turned her head and looked at Jin PingEr. Jin PingEr smiled and nonchalantly said, "Sister, what is it?"
Tonni gave a bitter laugh and said, "Sister, my grandfather he … this, I know you have remarkable abilities. Why don't you help him."
Jin PingEr glanced at Zhou YiXian with disdain in her eyes. But when she turned and saw Tonni's pleading eyes, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Never mind, for your sake, I will let him have it easy."
After speaking, she took out a small white jade bottle from her bosom and passed it to Tonni, said, "There is some medicine in this bottle. Let him apply it on his body. Naturally the mosquitoes will stay away."
Tonni happily received it, her face full of smiles, said, "Thank you sister." After speaking, she quickly walked to Zhou YiXian and passed the bottle to him. Zhou YiXian was stunned for a moment and suddenly jumped up. He angrily shouted, "There is such a good thing and you don't …"
Jin PingEr's face turned cold. She stared at him. Zhou YiXian immediately did not make a sound. He looked down and took the bottle, poured out the medicine and applied it on his body. After a while, he felt a refreshing fragrance. As expected, the mosquitoes that were flying around and disturbing him immediately quieted down. His entire body and mind relaxed.
Tonni slowly walked back and returned the bottle to Jin PingEr. She hesitated for a moment and quietly said, "Sister, you are still thinking about what my grandfather did?"
"Humph!" Jin PingEr's face turned cold. She said, "Three years ago at the East Sea, he said some nonsense and almost put me into an irrecoverable death. If not for sister, you discovered it early and sacrificed one year of your life to cast the 'Soul Collecting Strange Formation' for me and got rid of the evil spirit, I would be living a life worse than death. This kind of old man, if not for … "
