Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

Just as the men Ye Lingchuan sent to monitor Xiao were conducting all-round surveillance of Xiao's residence, outside the city, a group of people were heading towards Baihe Mountain.

After a while, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. In front of them was a lush forest. It was hard to imagine that there was still a cold wind blowing on the mountain that made it difficult to move.

Among the team, there was one person who seemed to be deeply attracted by the mountain scenery. He stopped and gradually fell behind the team.

The person walking at the end of the line noticed him and patted him on the shoulder as he passed by.

"Doctor Mo, stop looking, we have to go into the mountains!"

Mo Zuche looked at the forest in front of him, his eyes full of excitement. He tried his best to maintain a normal tone and responded, "I'm coming."

Finally we can go into the mountains.

He felt the faint fluctuations coming from the storage bracelet, took a deep breath, and caught up with the end of the team.

In order to achieve this goal, he secretly read through countless ancient banned books, and traveled to several places on missions, before he finally confirmed that this was the place he was looking for. After that, he used up all his accumulated vacation time.

At the impromptu meeting last night, Bai Xuanfeng confessed the situation in Baihe Mountain and that there was currently no one in the city who could lead the team through the cold wind and into Baihe Mountain.

Knowing that the obstruction in the mountains was related to the late emperor, Ye Lingchuan decided to ask his superiors and is now waiting for useful information to be sent back.

He also attended the meeting and volunteered to go up the mountain to see the situation.

Ye Lingchuan knew his origins well. He knew that he was an explorer in "Yuanliu" and had been to many ancient sites.

Perhaps hoping to use his experience to find a solution to the current situation, Ye Lingchuan agreed to his proposal and let him go up the mountain with the people who were going to clean up the "snow traces".

Of course, as a team doctor.

After all, he is still on vacation, and now he is just a passing enthusiastic person who knows a little medical skills.

In fact, before this, he could find other reasons to go into the mountains early to find out what was going on, but the mountains were not safe now, and it was hard to say if he would not encounter danger if he went there alone. He would never take unnecessary risks.

The team traveled for two hours and dealt with several "snow tracks" along the way. At some point, a thin layer of mist rose in the mountains and forests, reducing visibility.

Seeing this, the team leader quickly reminded everyone to concentrate and not get lost, and also informed everyone that the final point was approaching.

After walking for a distance, the lush green forest came to an abrupt end as if it had been cut off. Mist floated on the open space at the break, and beyond the mist, a high wall of cold wind was built that was visible to the naked eye. Inside the wall of wind, the trees grew twisted and twisted, like hemp ropes swaying in the wind. Looking around, everything looked pale, as if clouds had fallen on the branches.

Green slopes below the clouds and snow above the clouds, this is probably what the scene is about.

Mo Zuche separated from the team and walked towards the wind wall alone. Before he got close, he felt the bone-chilling coldness. Based on his exploration experience, he immediately concluded that if he got lost in it without any preparation, he would be in great danger.

He half-closed his eyes and stretched out a hand into the cold wind, moving it slowly along the wind wall, feeling the chill passing through his fingers slowly devouring his senses, just like the poisonous miasma that was corroding his body bit by bit at that time.

"What did you find?"

Mo Zuche's recollection was interrupted. He turned to look at Fang Chongguang who was approaching. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If I'm not mistaken, what's in front of me is a maze."

"Can it be cracked?"

"I'm just an ordinary healer, General." Mo Zuche shook his head, pretending that you are forcing me. "But the last time I encountered this situation, I borrowed a magic weapon that can reduce the impact of the maze. If you need it, I can ask the owner for you."

"Is it all we can do to mitigate the impact..." Fang Chongguang murmured in a low voice, somewhat disappointed. After a moment's silence, he nodded slightly to Mo Zuche, "Thank you for your help."

After Fang Chongguang walked away, Mo Zuche touched the storage bracelet with his red, frozen hand, feeling the hand regaining sensation. He lowered his eyebrows to hide the light in his eyes.

The same formation, no doubt it is here.

The next step is to go in and look for "fire".

What he didn't tell Fang Chongguang was that the magic weapon he mentioned did not fulfill its role in protecting the explorers at that time. That was the closest he had ever been to death. No one in the entire exploration team survived except him. Although he managed to survive, he was also seriously injured. Subsequently, the ancient site was also closed.

However, the one in the ancient ruins is a killing array that takes people's lives, while the one in front of us is just a maze that hinders people's actions, so the magic weapon should still be enough.

……

After being approached by City Lord Bai, Old Li did not choose to set up a stall and act as a fortune teller today. Instead, he stayed at home absent-mindedly coaxing his children, wondering whether he should change his place of residence.

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Sir, I want to ask for directions."

The young man's cold voice passed through the wooden door and into Lao Li's ears. Seeing that it was not the voice of someone he didn't want to see, he opened the door.

When he met the golden eyes of the young man at the door, he was slightly stunned.

"you……"

"Sir, do you know how to get to the mountain temple?"

Lao Li did not answer, but leaned out half of his body and looked around vigilantly. When he found no suspicious figures, he asked, "Are you here alone?"

Xiao responded with great certainty.

If he brought those followers with him, his plan to sneak up the mountain would be ruined.

Not long ago, after returning to his residence, he immediately closed the doors and windows and carefully checked several times to see if there was anything on his body that could locate his position. After that, he asked Green Goblin to check twice as well before he began to think about ways to escape.

Low-end stalkers focus on appearance, while high-end stalkers focus on aura. If you want to escape, you have to make the camouflage take both appearance and aura into consideration.

After hearing this, Green Xiao mentioned that there was a magic trick he knew that could meet the requirements.

Xiao originally had no hope for this, but who would have thought that Liyue's magic could actually be used in this world.

He shook off the pursuer so easily.

"Come in and talk." Old Li grabbed the boy's clothes, pulled him into the house and quickly closed the door.

"My brother whom I have never met, is he my grandfather's guest?"

A childish voice was heard, and Xiao looked in the direction of the sound. A little boy about five or six years old was holding a rattle in his hand, staring at him blankly.

"Yes, Erdan, go to the inner room first. I'll come and play with you after grandpa finishes talking to the guests."

"Okay—" Erdan nodded solemnly, then turned and left.

Just as Xiao was watching Erdan leave, Lao Li spoke up and drew his attention back.

"Young man, do you believe what I said?"

Xiao nodded slightly.

Anyway, there is no other way to solve the problem of Red Mandrill for now, so it won’t hurt to give it a try.

Seeing this, Lao Li smiled and said, "So you want me to be your guide?"

Xiao shook his head: "It might be a bit troublesome to bring another person."

Hearing this, Lao Li restrained his smile and frowned slightly: "You want to go to see the mountain god alone?"

He grabbed Xiao’s arm and squeezed it, not knowing what he was looking at. After a long while, he slowly spoke: “Also… OK.

But the location of the mountain temple has been changing, and the road to the mountain temple has also been changing, so I cannot give the exact route.

However, there is a never-freezing pond in front of the mountain temple. The water in the pond will eventually flow into the Baihe River. If you go upstream along the Baihe River, you may be able to find the temple.

But the White River has many tributaries, many of which will not freeze due to the cold, so this method depends a lot on luck. "

It depends on luck...

Xiao knew that he was not the type with good luck, so he asked: "Is there any other way?"

"Yes, there is a guaranteed way." After saying that, Lao Li walked to the back of the house. After a while, he came back with a somewhat worn book and opened one of the pages.

"This mushroom is called frozen ear. It grows on fallen trees and under snow. If you eat freshly picked frozen ears when you are on the verge of death, you can restore your strength and be led to the temple of the mountain god."

"Is this a legend, or something that really happened?" Xiao asked.

"It's true. One of our family's previous jobs was to bring the lost people from the temple back to the city."

Xiao thought for a moment and felt that this statement was quite credible, so he silently memorized the description of frozen ears in the book.

Clustered, fan-shaped, yellow-brown...

Suddenly, he remembered something and looked up and asked, "If I said I needed a guide, would you refuse?"

"Young man, have you changed your mind?"

Although Lao Li did not answer directly, Xiao still read the answer he wanted from it, so he asked again: "Then why did you reject the city lord last night?"

Seeing that Xiao was just asking casually and had not changed his mind, Lao Li said calmly: "The mountain god will protect his way to the audience, but it is hard to say about other places on the mountain."
