"Boss Xue, look, this is the road leading to Mount Li!"
"Should we go over and take a look?"
Now that Lao Mo is part of the team, he's not as obsessed with the things from the ancient ruins as he was at the beginning.
A reliable team is more important than a particular weapon or supply.
"Let's go take a look. If the road is really difficult to walk, we won't go and we can just go in another direction!"
Mount Li is too close to Yuncheng. I wonder if there are any special mutated plants there as well?
But Lin Xue still wanted to take the team over to take a look, in case they could find some cold weapons, which would enhance the team's strength.
"What should we do? There's a forest all ahead, and it seems to have more advanced mutated plants than anywhere else!"
After a long and arduous journey, the group finally arrived at the foot of Mount Li, only to find that the mountain was covered in dense vegetation and there was nowhere to stand.
Ellie sighed inwardly; it seemed they were not destined to have any connection with that ancient ruin.
"Boss, it seems we have no chance with these ancient ruins and have no choice but to leave!"
The young leader was very disappointed. He wanted to change his weapon, since the stone axe broke down too quickly.
If only we had a real piece of iron, we only have four pieces of iron in our team right now.
The kitchen knife and dagger in Lin Xue's hands.
The axe in Ellie's hand.
Old Mo still has a watermelon knife!
Apart from the axe, all the other iron tools had short handles.
They are not very effective in combat.
"Host, there is a secret passage here that leads directly to an ancient tomb!"
"However, there are a few mutated plants and some animals inside!"
Lin Xue was also troubled by the forest in front of her; there was simply no way for humans to pass through.
Fortunately, before she gave up, the system provided a clue.
Lin Xue decided to give it a try; they were desperately short of weapons.
"Everyone, follow me. I know a secret passage leading deep into Mount Li, but there might be a small number of mutated plants inside!"
"Everyone, grab your weapons. The three of you, Little Boss, stand at the back of the line. Ellie, give the axe to Little Boss!"
"Old Mo will lead the way with me. Keep your bow and arrows ready. Besides the mutated plants, we might also encounter other animals along the way, which will be great food. We can't miss them!"
After assigning the people to lead the way and cover the rear, the others were placed among the group.
Led by Lin Xue, the team quickly found the cave.
The cave was obscured by some mutated plants, but fortunately, these mutated plants were not vines, and the group quickly cleared away these obstacles.
They walked in silence, with Lin Xue carrying a torch and the younger brother behind her carrying one as well.
We did encounter several waves of mutated plants along the way.
These are all species that like to live in the soil. After eliminating these mutated plants, we also obtained potatoes, sweet potatoes, and yams.
These are all rare delicacies nowadays. Even if you can't go deep into Lishan, this trip is still worthwhile.
I don't know how long we walked, but according to 629, it was about 6 hours.
They finally saw a glimmer of light ahead.
"We're almost at the exit. Lao Mo and I will go out and check first. You guys wait behind us!"
Lin Xue led Lao Mo out first, but when they arrived at the place, they realized that it was not an exit at all, but a crevice in the mountain.
The light came in through the cracks.
However, this section appears to be a stone structure, and there are no mutated plants.
Otherwise, with such a large gap, who knows how many mutated plants would run in and block the way!
"It's alright, you guys follow me!"
Old Mo called out to the people behind him, and then the group continued on their way.
"Host, go another 200 meters forward, there's a ramp exit at the top, you need to go out from there!"
"Otherwise, this cave will lead you into the lair of the mutated plants!"
The timely system prompts also let Lin Xue know what to do next.
The group followed Lin Xue out of the tunnel and crawled diagonally upwards.
When Lin Xue resurfaced, she found herself and the others at the edge of an underground river.
The exit is located in an inconspicuous corner next to the underground river.
There are no mutated plants in the underground riverbed; except during the flood season, plants do not actively approach the underground river.
Lin Xue couldn't understand why this was happening either.
However, it is certain that this place is safe for the time being.
The group rested by the underground river for a while, and even caught some small fish and shrimp in the river, cooking a delicious fish and shrimp feast.
After eating and drinking their fill and resting for a while, everyone continued exploring the route.
Lin Xue had a hint from 629, so she knew where the entrance they were going to was.
However, he still followed the others and searched in the underground river for a long time, mainly to hunt wild animals.
Only after no other animals could be seen in the underground river did they lead everyone into the crevice.
The gap was so narrow that only one person could pass through at a time.
It took about 30 minutes to walk to the tomb.
This should be the tomb of an ancient general, as there are many bottles and jars among the burial objects.
There are also some bronze artifacts.
The group found several bronze swords and bronze axes.
Although this thing is not as light as iron, it is still a heavy weapon with great destructive power.
The three young leaders excitedly picked up a double-edged axe each.
Ellie and Yao Yao chose the bronze sword.
Zhang Feng took a trident, while Yu Yang and Boss Mo took broadswords.
