On the evening of the third day, Jiang Ping'an arrived outside Huihe Mountain.
Huihe Mountain is a huge mountain with a height of thousands of feet, stretching for a hundred and dozens of miles. It is not prominent in the territory of Daming Commandery. Considering the dangers in the mountains, Jiang Ping'an chose to spend the night in a mountain village near Huihe Mountain.
The family he stayed with was an Orion, named Zhang. I and my two teenage sons were both hunters. Jiang Ping'an gave them five taels of silver, and they entertained him warmly. They made three delicious dishes with wild boar bacon, dried rabbit meat, mountain mushrooms, etc., and also brought out a pot of home-brewed wild fruit wine.
"Uncle Zhang, why is Huihe Mountain called Huihe Mountain?" Jiang Ping'an asked at the dinner table.
The weather-beaten old man Zhang put down his wine bowl and said, "I heard from the old man that a fairy crane once defected from the Xian family and ate countless people along the way. Finally, he returned to Heshan and settled in the mountain and became the king of the mountain. After the Xian family knew the whereabouts of the crane, they sent a fairy boy to collect the crane. The crane deceived the fairy when he was young and wanted to kill the fairy boy. He also ate it. The fairy boy took out his sword and slashed it down like a galaxy. The crane would have been cut in half if it had not been for the fairy boy's mercy. The fairy boy knew that the fairy family was powerful, so he had to let the fairy boy ride back to the mountain to be punished."
Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "That's it."
Seeing that Jiang Ping'an didn't seem to believe it, Old Man Zhang said, "This legend is probably true. There are a lot of red-crowned cranes in Huihe Mountain. These red-crowned cranes are particularly ferocious. They not only eat animals, but also kill people and eat human brains. They hover in the air and suddenly swoop down. As long as people can't dodge, their long beaks will peck through the Tianling Cap."
"Also, I heard that Huihe Mountain's crane is extraordinarily big."
"Brother Jiang, if you want to go into the mountains tomorrow, be sure to be careful of Demonic Crane in the sky."
Jiang Ping'an said seriously, "Thank you Old Man Zhang for reminding me, I will definitely be careful."
Then, he asked, "Is there any danger to Huihe Mountain?"
"There are tigers, leopards and wolves." Old Man Zhang said.
Jiang Ping'an nodded, he didn't care about ordinary beasts.
Old Man Zhang's second son suddenly interrupted, "And Mountain God!"
"Mountain God?" Jiang Ping'an asked in confusion.
Old Man Zhang couldn't help but express his taboo, and said in a low voice with a loud voice, "There is indeed Mountain God."
Jiang Ping'an said, "Is there really Mountain God? Isn't it a spirit in the mountains?"
Old Man Zhang shook his head and said, "It's not a spirit. Mountain God is elusive. No one knows when it appeared. The last time it appeared was more than a year ago."
"Has anyone seen it?" Jiang Ping'an asked curiously.
Old Man Zhang said, "Everyone who saw Mountain God died. Every time Mountain God appeared, all living things in the place were spared. Their whole bodies seemed to be pierced by countless long and very sharp needles, and their blood dried up and died."
Jiang Ping'an was wary and asked, "Is it true that no one knows what 'Mountain God' looks like?"
Old Man Zhang shook his head and said, "No. I saw Mountain God patrolling the mountain once more than ten years ago, but I couldn't see what it looked like at all. I only saw a ball of golden light, like clouds and fog. At that time, it was patrolling the mountain and flying almost close to the ground."
Jiang Ping'an thought for a moment and thought to himself, "Could it be that 'Mountain God' is related to the 'treasure' on the map?"
So, he asked, "Where does Mountain God usually appear?"
Old Man Zhang shook his head and said, "I don't know."
The next day, Jiang Ping'an left the horse at Zhang Orion's house, and he entered Huihe Mountain alone.
It is not convenient to ride a horse into the mountains, but flying is much easier.
After walking for more than ten miles into the mountains, Jiang Ping'an Yujian flew towards the place marked on the map.
He Sword Flight still uses Spiritual Sense.
Sword Flight After half a cup of tea, twenty or thirty miles deep into Huihe Mountain, a dozen red-crowned cranes appeared in the sky above Jiang Ping'an.
These red-crowned cranes are indeed relatively large, more than twice the size of ordinary red-crowned cranes. However, it still belongs to the category of normal birds and is not a demon bird.
In Nanwu Prefecture, there are monsters and monsters, but they are rare in number. Each monster must be carefully hidden, otherwise it will be hunted down by the monks soon and replaced with spiritual stones.
An inconspicuous mountain like Huihe Mountain may hide monsters, but it is impossible for them to come out to show off their power.
Jiang Ping'an struck first and used fifteen flying knives to shoot at the red-crowned cranes. A dozen red-crowned cranes fell from the sky in response.
Continuing Sword Flight for more than forty miles, Jiang Ping'an landed near the place marked on the map. After taking a short rest, Jiang Ping'an continued walking towards the marked place.
The marked place is a winding canyon seven or eight miles long.
The peaks on both sides of this canyon are very steep, like a crack. The deep canyon is covered with towering trees. Walking in the canyon, it is almost dark.
Jiang Ping'an walked a short distance and noticed that the further in, the heavier the miasma became. The miasma not only affects vision, it is also poisonous.
So, he turned around and exited the canyon, deciding to wait until the sun was high at noon, the sunlight was shining down, and the miasma had dissipated before going in.
At noon, the sun was as scorching as fire, and the blazing white sunlight shot down vertically, finally shining into the canyon and driving away the miasma.
Jiang Ping'an is waiting, and Spiritual Sense has also fully recovered.
Jiang Ping'an entered the canyon again, and fifteen flying knives flew around his body like fish.
As we go deeper into the canyon, we are indeed surrounded by dangers, and venomous snakes and venomous insects are attacking us one after another.
Jiang Ping'an Spiritual Sense is wide open, not only to protect against venomous snakes and insects, but also to explore "treasures".
"Keng——"
There was a sound of metal clashing, and Jiang Ping'an turned his head to look along the sound in surprise, seeing a flying knife and a dark golden snake as thick as an arm flying backwards towards each other, sparks flickering between them.
"What kind of snake is this? The snake scales are even more like steel." He thought to himself.

The next moment, under his Spiritual Sense, the flying knife immediately stabilized and flew upside down, and shot towards the snake again as fast as lightning.
This time, he increased his strength, and before the snake even hit the ground, a flying knife pierced the snake's head.
After killing the snake, Jiang Ping'an used Spiritual Sense to hold the dead but not stiff dark gold snake in front of him for observation.
"Hey, this is a mutated Black-browed Serpent." Jiang Ping'an said in surprise, "It may have been nourished by a trace of golden spiritual energy, or it may have been influenced by Golden Fiend Qi."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but show joy on his face, and said to himself, "If you can mutate an ordinary snake, there must be something good in this canyon!"
Throwing the snake corpse aside, Jiang Ping'an continued to move forward.
As we continued deeper, we encountered several snakes with scales as hard as iron. These snakes are not all Black-browed Serpent, there are other types.
More than five miles into the canyon, Jiang Ping'an suddenly realized that the danger had suddenly increased. He immediately took out Black Iron Round Shield from Storage Bag and protected it in front of him.
The next moment, a Golden Python as thick as an adult man's thigh suddenly rushed out of the bushes and sprayed a golden-green poisonous gas at him.
Jiang Ping'an quickly retreated while letting the flying knife shoot towards Golden Python's open mouth.
Golden Python had no intention of dodging. It quickly turned its head and let the golden-green poisonous gas spray onto the flying knife.
The flying knife was sprayed with golden-green poisonous gas, and it melted away in the blink of an eye, turning into a patina.
Jiang Ping'an was slightly startled, and immediately let more flying knives shoot at Golden Python. Golden Python repeated his old tricks, but these flying knives avoided the poison gas as nimbly as fish and shot towards Golden Python's seven inches.
Keng! Keng! Keng!
Golden Python was attacked by three flying knives, and was pierced through the golden armor by the fourth flying knife, and then shot through the heart. Golden Python's high-spirited upper body suddenly collapsed, and then died soon after.
After Golden Python was completely dead, Jiang Ping'an came closer to take a look, and saw that the scales on Golden Python's body were like gold flakes, glowing with a metallic cold light.
"Although the flying knives lack energy due to the distance being too close, its scales can still block three flying knives, which shows how hard the scales are." Jiang Ping'an secretly thought, "If it is used to refine a piece of protective armor, it will definitely be good. This Golden Python should fetch a good price!"
With this in mind, he put Golden Python's body into the extra Storage Bag.
