    In the next two days, Tie Heng remained on alert and was cautious whether he was marching during the day or camping at night.  The sword case is always strapped to his back, and his psychic gun is always activated.  Among the people, only Miao Jue, who was closest to him, noticed something strange about him, but everyone was tired from the journey and talked to each other less and less. It seemed that all their energy was spent on traveling and fighting the cold, so Miao Jue  Jue did not delve further.

    The wind and snow are still the main theme in this world, and they are also the source of distress for the group.  However, perhaps due to the severe cold and heavy snow, Tie Heng and the others only encountered a few hungry beasts and low-level demons along the way. The number was much less than they expected, but it saved them a lot of trouble.

    On this day, under the leadership of their guide, they finally arrived at their destination. The location told by the demon-slayers to the government was correct, but the situation they described was very different from what everyone saw.  In just a few days, the area of ??dirty soil expanded many times!

    The survey team turned around the foot of a mountain, and what appeared in their field of vision was a succession of yellow-brown vegetation on several mountain tops, most of which were giant mushrooms like giant trees in the sky.  They are very sparsely distributed, but each one is more than ten feet high, and the canopy is extremely huge. The surface is mottled and rotten, and there are all kinds of strange parasitic demonic plants attached to it. It looks very disgusting.  Looking from a distance, this mountain top is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, which looks particularly eye-catching and abrupt!

    "Master, I don't dare to go any further, so I will wait for you to come back here. I will not leave casually." The forty-year-old guide saw the people going up the mountain and said hurriedly.

    The military attach¨¦s of the two government offices naturally disagreed, but the guide refused to move even if he was still alive.  He is a local hunter who has been dealing with deep mountains and old forests for half his life. He has experienced many dangerous things, so he is well aware of the horror of dirty soil. He regards it as a cursed place from heaven. Even if he were killed, he would not go near it.  Not to mention stepping into it.

    In the end, everyone had no choice but to follow the guide's instructions and leave him where he was.  There were also their mounts, the dozen or so curved-horned blue sheep, no matter how beaten they were, they would not move forward any further and could only be left behind to be looked after by the guide.  Others continued on and slowly climbed up the mountain to the edge of the dirt.

    "Zhang Jiaoyu, look here" Yang Huaiyuan accompanied Zhang Jiaoyu and asked with a frown.

    "It doesn't matter, the space in this area has stabilized, and we will be fine." Zhang Jiaoyu said casually, holding a transparent bead the size of an egg in one hand, with a trace of gray smoke inside.  The energy is building.  "The evil spirit here is very strong!"

    Zhang Jiaoyu glanced at the magic bead in his hand that was used to detect the approximate intensity of demonic energy, but his attention was quickly attracted by the numerous demonic plants around him, and he ran over to look around and touch around.  Fortunately, he also knew that these demonic plants could be dangerous, so he was cautious when acting, so Yang Huaiyuan did not drag him back.  After a while, Zhang Jiaoyu had a thick book in his hand and began to read it hurriedly.

    "Tie Heng, look." Miao Jue pushed Tie Heng who was standing next to him and pointed to the ground on one side.

    "The evil spirit here is strong and the erosion is very fast. We have to be careful." Tie Heng warned.

    The black and yellow dirt is covered with small demonic plants that resemble fungi, and they are expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.  The snow is melting, and the soil, rocks, trees and vegetation underneath will soon be contaminated as long as they are touched by the spreading dirty soil, and will be gradually transformed or eaten away!

    "Yeah!" Miao Jue nodded and stepped on his feet twice, as if he was worried that he would also be corroded by the evil spirit in the dirty soil.  But the words that came out of her mouth were quite tough.  "Follow me later, otherwise I won't guarantee your safety, sir."

    Tie Heng smiled slightly and let her get closer.  The strong demonic aura also made others feel uncomfortable. They gathered together and talked softly, and each of them looked unhappy.

    At this time, Zhang Jiaoyu came to a conclusion. His expression was serious and his tone was a little nervous.  "Although I don't recognize these monster plants, judging from the density of monster energy, soil conditions and ecological structure here, this dirty soil is quite 'fertile'."

    His words made the atmosphere more solemn.  Although everyone does not have his understanding of the demon world environment, they still have basic common sense.  The abundance in his words may have many meanings, but one thing is unquestionable, that is, there are probably high-level demons in this dirty land.  Because the thicker and purer demon energy can more effectively enhance the strength of demons, the more powerful the demon clan in the demon world occupies, the wider and more "fertile" the land!

    "What should we do now?" Professor Xi tightened his cotton robe tightly and asked loudly: "Should we send this discovery back to the city as soon as possible, or should we go in and take a look?"

    "I believe?We should go back, moving forward is not a wise choice.  " Before anyone else could speak, Professor Jiang expressed her opinion. She and Miao Jue were the only two women in the team, and they were about the same age. Although they didn't have much communication with each other along the way, at this moment she still  Her eyes turned to the latter, hoping to get Miao Jue's support, but she was obviously cowering.

    Yang Huaiyuan still frowned. He did not speak immediately. He also looked at Miao Jue to see what she planned.

    "I don't care!" Miao Jue spread his little hands and said, "This piece of filthy land looks very big, but the possibility of bringing monsters to the human world is actually very small. Besides, with the strength of our team, even if it really does  If we encounter high-level demons, we can also hunt them down. Of course, if you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst, so it would be safer to retreat!"

    Her words were ambiguous, but everyone could tell that Miao Jue didn't want to leave empty-handed.  The purpose of her trip was to collect demonic plants from the filthy soil. According to the usual practice, half of all the harvest afterwards belongs to the school, and the other half belongs to herself. If she just goes back, the next time she comes back, there probably won't be such a few people.  , good things will definitely not be enough.

    Miao Jue was motivated by selfish motives, Professor Xi also had the same intention, and a man who is a dignified man cannot show his timidity in front of the person he likes!  His attitude suddenly changed. As a result, Professor Qiao, who also pursued Miao Jue, would not back down.  Besides, if they can gain something this time, their "bodyguards" will also get a lot of benefits when they go back.

    Now that the majority of people are in favor of moving forward, Yang Huaiyuan¡¯s brows furrowed deeper.  Naturally, he would not seek the opinions of the three apprentices, but would turn to Zhang Jiaoyu.  His mission on this trip was to protect Zhang Jiaoyu's safety and to find out the situation of the dirty land. Under normal circumstances, he had to respect the other party's wishes first.

    "Well, what Professor Miao just said is correct. The dirt is different from the space rift. It is not a space channel that is always open, so the probability of demons appearing is very low. The demon world is vast and boundless, much wider than the human world.  The area of ??these mountains seems very huge to us, but compared to the entire demon world, it is just a drop in the ocean. It is unlikely that high-level demons were brought to this world by just being displaced by space. After all, with their abilities, once they discover space  Structural disorder can be avoided in time!" As Zhang Jiaoyu spoke, he looked at the various and strangely colorful lush vegetation on the hillside, with flames called fanaticism bursting out of his eyes.

    "I think we should go in first and conduct a general investigation without going too deep. We can collect some samples. If we can catch some intelligent monsters, we can have an explanation when we return to the city." Zhang Jiaoyu said it nicely. In fact,  It is no different from Miao Jue, except that the latter is for profit, while he wants to practice what he has learned throughout his life.  After all, such a well-maintained and wide area of ??dirty soil is not easy to find. The few places Zhang Jiaoyu has surveyed before were only a dozen acres or even more than a hundred feet in size, and the richness of the samples was very limited.  How could this fanatical scholar let go of an opportunity like this?

    Yang Huaiyuan thought for a moment and finally compromised.  "Okay! Let's go up the mountain, but everyone must be vigilant and not go too deep. We only collect some samples from the edge and then go back."

    Everyone had different expressions after hearing this, Professor Jiang was naturally very dissatisfied, while Miao Jue smiled lightly, with a little pride in his eyes, and winked at Tie Heng, rubbing his hands, as if to say, "We  It's time for a big fight.  Her two suitors also came over and pushed Tie Heng aside.  They started to exalt themselves and belittle their opponents, which made Miao Jue's pretty face fall.  Tie Heng just stood aside and watched the show, while Yang Zhenbei and Ye Nan both looked excited.  Speaking of which, the two of them were the ones who least wanted to leave empty-handed.  Unlike adults, they are more about the pure passion of young people and their curiosity about novel things.

    Yang Huaiyuan saw the excitement and impatience in his son's heart and sighed secretly.  He used to face everything without fear, but now he has lost this edge and just hopes to live in peace.

    Yang Huaiyuan took one last look at the two military attach¨¦s, who nodded to him but did not express any opinions.  Their mission is similar to that of Yang Huaiyuan. They are just to protect this team of teachers and students to find out the specific situation of the dirty land, and to solve it in the name of the government when they encounter certain troubles. The rest of the time they just need to follow the action.

    The decision was made and the team began to head towards the top of the mountain.  This mountain peak is quite steep, with slopes on both sides and even almost straight cliffs. The other side is bare and rugged, as if countless blades were inserted into the ground, which seems to be geological changes caused by space displacement.  .  Only the side they came from from the east has gentle slopes, and they can still climb to the top of the peak on foot, but the vegetation along the way is dense, high and low, and strangely shaped.The branches, vines and vegetation are tangled together, like a heavy net.  At the same time, the evil spirit was permeating the air, affecting everyone's senses and consciousness. The group was attracted by the strange things around them, and stopped from time to time to collect some rare plants. They stopped and walked like this, and the traveling speed could only be reached by "crawling".  describe.
