Life or Death?

"Old Ma, we seem to be trapped by the formation. What should we do now?"

The burly man looked left and right, and couldn't tell east, south, west, or north.

He thought that if he followed Dustin and someone was exploring the way ahead, he would be safe. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the forbidden area, his vision was blocked by the thick fog, and even the person was lost.

"Don't panic, keep going forward, we will definitely get out of this fog."

The hunchbacked old man's eyes swept back and forth on the ground.

There is only one road, and there will be faint footprints left where Dustin and others passed.

As long as we follow the footprints, I believe we can still catch up with the team in front.

"Everyone follow closely, don't fall behind, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" The burly man shouted to the team behind.

Everyone responded and immediately got closer.

At this critical moment, once they leave the team, they may be killed at any time.

Under the leadership of the hunchbacked old man, the two teams merged together and began to advance at a constant speed.

So everyone became extra cautious, with their hands on their weapons and their eyes looking around, fearing that some monster would suddenly rush out of the fog.

Just like that, after walking along the footprints for about half an hour, the hunchbacked old man suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The footprints on the ground were still there, but they looked familiar, as if they had walked there before.

And normally speaking, according to their pace, as long as they didn't make any mistakes, they would have already walked out of the fog at this time.

Could it be that they were really trapped?

The hunchbacked old man frowned, made a mark on the ground, and continued to move forward with a nervous mood.

After walking for about half an hour, the hunchbacked old man suddenly stopped because he had seen the mark he made on the ground.

That's right, they were back to the original place.

This discovery made the hunchbacked old man a little crazy.

He could be sure that he had been moving forward all the time, without turning or retreating.

In this case, it was impossible to return to the starting point.

Could it be that something deceived his perception?

Or is the whole environment changing?

"Mr. Ma, the situation is not good!"

The burly man next to him also found the mark, and his expression became particularly ugly.

After walking for a long time and turning in circles, he was really in trouble.

"A small maze is nothing, I have a trick!"

As the hunchbacked old man spoke, he suddenly took out a black bottle from his arms.

After opening the bottle cap, two black insects with wings slowly flew out and landed in his palm.

"Mr. Ma, what is this?" The burly man was a little curious.

"This is the spirit insect I raised, which is specially used to track treasures. As long as there are strange treasures around, they can quickly sense it. Follow them and we will definitely get out!" The hunchbacked old man said confidently.

"As expected of Mr. Ma, he actually has such a treasure, amazing!" The burly man took the opportunity to flatter.

In his heart, he cursed secretly, "You have a spirit insect that can track, why didn't you take it out earlier? We walked for more than an hour in vain."

"Go."

The hunchbacked old man raised his palm lightly, and two spirit insects flew out immediately, disappearing in the mist in the blink of an eye.

"Ma Lao, they are gone!" The burly man was slightly stunned.

They disappeared in an instant, how can they be followed?

"Don't worry, let them fly for a while, just follow me."

The hunchbacked old man was not panicked at all, and walked forward leisurely.

These two spirit insects have established a special connection with him. Within a radius of ten miles, he can accurately sense the location and is not afraid of getting lost.

The group set out again and continued to move forward with the hunchbacked old man.

Fortunately, they did not get lost this time. After walking for about an incense stick of time, the white fog around them became lighter and lighter, and the scenery gradually became clearer.

After a while, they appeared at the foot of the mountain.

Not far ahead is the entrance to the Longhu Mountain forbidden area, but it is not easy to get in because of two bronze gates.

"Hahaha... We are out! We are out!"

"As expected of Mr. Ma! He is really amazing!"

"With Mr. Ma leading the team, this operation will definitely be accomplished perfectly!"

After walking out of the fog, the whole team was jubilant, and the haze in everyone's heart was swept away.

It was too depressing to be in the fog just now and unable to get out.

Fortunately, Mr. Ma is experienced and has the help of spirit insects, which allowed them to get rid of the fog array.

It seems that they followed the right person!

"Mr. Ma, it seems that only we have come out. The previous team was trapped in the fog."

The burly man glanced around and did not see Dustin and others.

"They can only blame their bad luck for being trapped. You don't expect me to save them, do you?" The hunchbacked old man said lightly.

"How is that possible?"

The burly man laughed: "I wish they were all trapped here to death. After all, if one less person shares the money, we can earn more."

"Smart."

The hunchbacked old man nodded with satisfaction: "After we take the treasure, we will split it 50-50. The savings of Longhu Mountain for hundreds of years are all in it. Once we succeed, we will never be able to spend it all in our eight lifetimes!"

"Hahaha... It seems that we are going to be rich this time!" The burly man laughed heartily.

"Don't be too happy too soon. To enter the forbidden area to search for treasures, we must first break the door in front." The hunchback raised his chin towards the bronze door in front.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ma, leave the door opening to me!"

The burly man patted his chest and said heroically: "Isn't it just a broken door? Look, I'll punch it open!"

After that, the burly man took off his coat, revealing his strong arms, and then strode forward.

The bronze door was six meters high and five meters wide, covered with various runes, simple and mysterious.

The burly man took a horse stance, blew into his fist, then swung it violently, hitting the bronze door heavily.

"Open it for me!" - Ton
