Chapter 957 Yao Family Treasure Land

Seeing Yao Qiu'er controlling the speed calmly, Zuo Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "It's still not very safe here. I'm afraid we still have to try to speed up as much as possible."

Yao Qiu'er turned her head and glanced at Zuo Feng, and then she realized that Zuo Feng was still processing the traces behind him. She couldn't help but said with some surprise: "You guy can actually rush on the road and still be able to deal with the traces."

Zuo Feng smiled and nodded. It's not that Zuo Feng was really that great. He was able to take care of so many details even when he was injured. The main reason was that Yao Qiu'er didn't know anything about stealth, at least he was able to deliberately leave no traces when walking in the heart. Zuo Feng was also particularly careful to deal with some traces that would occasionally become tracking targets.

Yao Qiu'er was not familiar with this place, Zuo Feng could understand just by observing it quietly. Because the two of them spent almost a quarter of an hour spinning in circles, and Zuo Feng would selectively leave some traces behind.

The reason why it was certain that Yao Qiu'er was not moving forward with a purpose was because Zuo Feng knew that his direction was constantly changing, rather than walking in a zigzag direction.

Zuo Feng once reminded the other party to look at the map, but Yao Qiu'er resolutely did not take out the map and take a look at it. It wasn't until later that Zuo Feng understood the whole story and why Yao Qiu'er insisted on not looking at the map. Because she doesn't need a map and doesn't even know the specific location of the Yao family's treasure.

When three hills next to each other appeared in front of Yao Qiu'er, she finally found a direction. It was only at this time that Zuo Feng realized how bad Yao Qiu'er's sense of direction was. She could almost ignore all decisions and directions.

Yao Qiu'er walked around three mountains close together and found a tree without raising his eyes. This tree looked very ordinary. Even Zuo Feng, an old expert in the mountains, couldn't see anything special, but Yao Qiu'er spotted this tree at a glance.

After carefully observing Zuo Feng, he discovered a characteristic. The tree's crown was taller than an ordinary tree, but the middle part was somewhat bald near the bottom. Only people like Xiang Zuofeng, who often live in the mountains, can notice the difference, and after careful observation, they found that the tree could have been pruned, but the cuts were done very well.

Yaoqiu seemed to have a direction after seeing the tree, and then headed straight forward with his back against the tree and the three hills.

After walking for about an hour, the two finally found a special place. This is an abandoned village. It seems that the original scale of this village was pretty good. It was similar to the original Zuojia Village. There should be about five or six hundred people in the whole village. However, for some unknown reason, they completely migrated. gone.

Zuo Feng paid special attention. This village was different from Zuojia Village. It could be seen that it had not been attacked at first. People should have calmly packed up and left here.

The entire village is surrounded by trees and weeds. If the trees here were not sparse and low, I would not be able to detect this small village from a distance. The houses in the village were all built of wood and have completely decayed over time. Only a few of them are still standing, but they have been completely integrated with nature.

It was getting late at this time, and the sun that had been shining all day finally disappeared in the west. After Yao Qiu'er came to this village, her expression was a little different from before. She looked at the surrounding scenery as if she remembered something.

Zuo Feng guessed that the treasure of the Yao family was probably here, and this village was probably the one who guarded this treasure in the first place. Thinking about it this way, I am afraid that the village here is still somewhat related to the Yao family. Maybe what happened at the beginning was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface. Zuo Feng's village had experienced great changes, so he did not want to ask more questions, but just asked Leave time to Yao Qiu'er to make her own decision.

Yao Qiu'er seemed to realize that it was getting very late, so after searching around the village, she stopped at a stone mill. This stone mill looks very ordinary, but there is another special location, which is the metal rod protruding from the center of the stone mill.

This pole is usually made of wood, which will reduce the weight of the stone mill and will be very convenient when grinding things. However, metal stone mills are also used in some places, but such stone mills are prepared for warriors and are still too inconvenient for ordinary people to use.

What surprised Zuo Feng was that although the metal pole of the stone mill seemed to be corroded on the surface, upon closer inspection, it was found that there was no damage at all. It was just that the metal pole looked so old when it was manufactured. .

Yao Qiu'er attached herself to the side of Shi Nian and looked into the dense forest in the distance in the direction pointed by the metal rod. After confirming the direction, she walked in that direction without hesitation.

Zuo Feng's heart moved, but he didn't say anything and just followed Yao Qiu'er down. This Yaojia treasure land is considered very secret. If you don't know these ways to determine the direction, simply getting a map will not be of much use, because the mountains here are roughly the same, and it is impossible to determine the specific location here.

The two of them continued walking in the direction pointed by Shi Nian. After about half an hour, they suddenly saw a cave.

This cave is a bit special, because there is no real mountain here at all, but a cave-like existence, only slightly protruding from the ground. If the two of them hadn't followed the direction they came out of the village, they would have seen this place as just a pile of rocks from other directions.

Zuo Feng secretly calculated the distance. It took them more than an hour and a half to get here from the three hills they found at the beginning. And this distance is under the condition of being determined. If it is not determined, it is impossible to find it in this vast area.

After Yao Qiuer walked to the entrance of the stone cave, she couldn't help but look back at Zuo Feng, and there was still a hint of hesitation in her eyes. But it was only a moment, she sighed and walked straight into the cave. Zuo Feng didn't say anything and followed him in. He didn't covet the things here, but only here could he hide and recuperate.

Fortunately, because the speed of the demon beast "Xiao Miao" was extremely fast, it helped him to regain a lot of time, otherwise he would not dare to recuperate here now.

When entering this cave, the two of them almost half-squatted and hunched over, and the air was very stuffy. If someone accidentally stumbled here, they would probably retreat when they got here.

If there were no wild beasts living in such a cave, it must be just a dead hole that was not too deep. There was no point in entering such a cave to check.

Zuo Feng had some doubts in his heart, but when he saw Yao Qiuer walking firmly inside, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Zuo Feng knew that he was an outsider, and Yao Qiuer didn't want to bring him here. Now the more he asked, not only would it cause disgust, but it would also make the other party unnecessary vigilance.

As the sky gradually darkened, the cave was even darker. Yao Qiuer waved her hand and a spiritual light stone appeared in her palm. This spiritual light was of medium quality, and it illuminated the entire cave as soon as it appeared. Zuo Feng clearly saw that the cave in front had come to the end, so everything in the cave was in sight.

Zuo Feng wanted to ask if this was the so-called Yao family treasure land, but there was nothing to be seen in the Yao family treasure land except the bare mountain wall. Just when Zuo Feng was puzzled, Yao Qiuer had already touched the mountain wall deeply. Soon after, she seemed to touch something, and her palm turned slightly and made a "click" sound.

Zuo Feng's mind moved, and he secretly said "mechanism", and then he heard a series of "clicking and clacking" sounds coming from the mountain wall next to him.

This was not the first time Zuo Feng had seen the mechanism. When he was in the spiral tower trial, there was a mechanism driven by an underground river. Later, when he was in the Linshan Villa, there was also a mechanism in the pavilion.

Although the mechanism was not valued by some high-ranking officials in the empire, Zuo Feng seemed to feel that the inheritance of the mechanism should also have a certain history. It is often only possessed by some super families or forces with a long heritage. This time, seeing the Yao family using the mechanism, Zuo Feng also unconsciously paid attention to it.

Following a series of mechanical sounds in the mountain wall, a small opening was slowly opened on the other side of the cave, which surprised Zuo Feng a little.

If there is a mechanism here, people will often think that there is a mechanism here, but after breaking it with all their strength, they will find that there is nothing here, but it is actually on the other side. And sometimes there are some self-destruct devices in this mechanism, that is, once an intruder wants to destroy the mechanism here, the self-destruct function will be activated, causing the cave to collapse by itself.

In his heart, he sighed at the ingenuity of the person who designed this cave. He had already set off towards the opening and followed Yao Qiuer down.

As soon as he entered the cave, Zuo Feng felt that although the air was slightly humid, there was still a smell of fresh air blowing in. Moreover, the space inside this cave was very large, and there was no problem for the two to stand up straight, which formed a sharp contrast with the narrow cave outside.

Here, the spiritual light stone in Yao Qiuer's hand seemed very useful. He led Zuo Feng into the cave, and the medium-grade spiritual light stone also illuminated the cave very brightly.

Everything in this cave was very special. After Yao Qiuer took a few steps, he reached out his hand again to grope on the mountain wall next to him. After a mechanism was twisted by him, the cave was completely closed.

Zuo Feng knew that where he was now was the real location of the Yao family's treasure land. It was just that he had a strange feeling after entering here, which was a call from the bottom of his heart. The moment this feeling appeared, Zuo Feng seemed a little unnatural, and Yao Qiuer did not notice Zuo Feng's slightly embarrassed expression at this time.
