Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 40: Walking Through

But after walking a few steps, Le Wuyi stopped in surprise: "That chicken is still alive?!"

Everyone followed Le Wuyi's surprised eyes, and saw a rooster with feathers like fire walking in small steps by the side of a clear and shallow river.

The rooster was no longer as sluggish as before, and walked rather lightly, and occasionally lowered its head to peck something in its mouth. The only difference, probably, was that the rooster's comb disappeared.At this time, the place where the rooster's comb should have been was completely flat, except for a piece of blood red, the chicken blood stained the feathers on the top of the rooster's head, and there was a bit of a bloody smell, but there was nothing unusual about it.

Le Wuyi just felt miraculous: "There was so much blood just now, I thought the whole chicken exploded." Standing in the distance, he couldn't see everything, so he only saw blood splattered everywhere.

But the facts tell them that is not the case, the rooster is still alive and well, Shen Ye frowned slightly, but shifted his steps and walked to the side, kicked into a clump of weeds, but flew out again with a "hula" A rooster came.Shen Ye casually grabbed the throbbing rooster in his hands, and saw that its head was also missing the comb, but there was an obviously healed scar there, so this rooster should have been used for a funeral earlier .

Shen Ye looked further away, among the layers of grass, where the green leaves shaded, he could vaguely see a dozen figures walking slowly. Obviously, there were not many roosters here.

Xie Yi walked to Shen Ye's side: "Why can't these chickens make a sound?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone who was still feeling that this place was about to become a chicken farm realized something was wrong, it was too quiet, and there were obviously so many roosters, why had they never heard a rooster crowing since they entered this place?Even the rooster fluttering in Shen Ye's hand at this moment only made the sound of flapping its wings, and there was no sound from its wide-open mouth.

"Maybe it's caused by...the ceremonies done by the wizard?" Xia Yi speculated, "In order not to offend the cave god, we can't directly kill the rooster, but the rooster that has performed the ceremonies has some ominous meaning, so we can't bring it with it. Back in town, and the crowing of these roosters will disturb the cave gods, so deprive them of their sound?"

"Maybe," Shen Ye casually threw the rooster out, "It has nothing to do with us."

Their purpose is to determine whether there are tombs on this mountain, and whether they have the key they are looking for. Others, if it is not necessary, they don't need to spend that effort to explore one or two.

Xie Yi nodded: "What Master said is true."

So the few people put aside these roosters running around, and set foot on the road to the cave again.

The closer you get, the more you will be amazed by the magic of nature. A small stream in front of you surrounds the barren mountain, which is like a critical line. The opposite side of the stream is a desolate desert, but here is an oasis where everything is thriving.

The gurgling stream was flowing, and there was no breeze, and the ripples were clearly visible, because the stream gathered at the entrance of a dark cave and then poured into it. From the sound of the water, the cave should only be located on a slightly lower terrain, and there was no The drop is particularly large, so the stream did not make a sound.

"The coffin just now, won't it be pushed into this hole?" Recalling the actions of the coffin bearers just now, Le Wuyi couldn't forget to sigh, "Then how deep is this hole? Not filled with coffins, when the time comes, one coffin will be connected to another, and the line will be full..."

Le Wuyi's voice became smaller and smaller in the end, rubbing his arms, he found helplessly: "Yi Ze, I have goosebumps again."

Xia Yi shook his head amusedly: "Don't think too much." Even so, the scene Le Wuyi mentioned is extremely possible.A mountain full of coffins?It's just another form of burial, so don't worry about it.

Le Wuyi sighed: "But my intuition tells me that there must be nothing good inside."

"Maybe," Xia Yi said, he glanced at Shen Ye and Xie Yi who were walking towards the entrance of the cave, "We should go."

"Ah, good." Le Wuyi obviously also found out that Grand Master and Master had left, and they couldn't be left behind.

It was only when the two of them stepped into the stream that they realized that if the stream previously separated desolation and vitality, then the entrance of this dark hole seemed to separate the yang world from the underworld. Because at the moment of entering the cave, the stream that reached the instep suddenly changed from mild and comfortable to icy cold, as if there were strands of extremely cold breath gathering under the feet and climbing up.But walking in it, there is no pain in the feet from being frozen, but the severe cold cannot be ignored.

Xie Yi and Shen Ye walked in front, a ray of light lit up and illuminated the darkness, but it was Shen Ye who turned on the flashlight that he carried with him. Surrounded by bumpy and uneven mountain walls, the light was everywhere, half of it was bright, and the other half had Mottled shadows that are hard to dispel.As for the corridor ahead, the stream flowed faster and narrower at the same time, but there was no problem for the two of them to pass side by side.

The stream under his feet flowed forward, as if he was summoned from the depths of the darkness and moved forward bravely. Xie Yi looked ahead: "Master, that coffin is not here."

Obviously, the water of the stream only reaches the depth of the instep, such a wooden coffin, and there are corpses inside, how did it pass through this passage in such a short time with such a heavy weight?Generally speaking, shouldn't it be stranded here?

Shen Ye didn't intend to stay: "You'll know when you go down."

Xie Yi obviously didn't intend to be troubled by this problem, there was still a long distance to the end of the corridor, they shouldn't waste time here.

And Le Wuyi, who was walking behind the two, glanced casually, only to feel something flashing on the wall, as if there was a black shadow passing by?Looking up suddenly, it was still a bumpy mountain wall, was it an illusion just now?Le Wuyi squinted and just watched, until Xia Yi stopped in doubt: "Wuyi?"

Looking around, there was no flickering black shadow, Le Wuyi frowned slightly and then relieved: "It's okay, I was wrong." He ran forward quickly, and walked side by side with Xia Yi.

Xia Yi smiled slightly: "Then keep going." Even so, when Le Wuyi didn't pay attention, Xia Yi glanced back, the light at the entrance of the cave was gradually weakening, and the darkness gathered , that dimmed mountain wall, just now, is there something there?

After looking at it for a long time, he didn't find anything wrong, but Xia Yi finally chose to give up and look forward.But at the moment when he turned his head, on the mountain wall far away from the four of them, where the light of the flashlight was weakened, there was a huge shadow that disappeared in a flash, crawling and climbing on the mountain wall, as if It is waiting for an opportunity to move, but it will disappear the next moment.

There was a cold stream under their feet, surrounded by hard stone walls. The four of them walked slowly, but before they got close, there was a strange smell coming towards them, a faint, unspeakable fishy smell, and It seems to be mixed with a suffocating and meaty smell.

"Is this... the smell of blood?" But why does it smell so weird?

Shen Ye just took a flashlight and looked into the distance. In a corner of the mountain wall, there was a protrusion rippling on the stream. It was not big, but the fishy smell seemed to come from there.The four of them stepped forward quickly, and when they got closer, they realized that it was a rooster, a rooster that had been half-eaten and half of its skeleton exposed.

Faint bloodshots drifted away with the water waves. The scattered feathers of the rooster had long lost their luster, and some minced meat and bloodshots were still stained on the protruding skeleton. There was a stiff taste.

"What's going on here? How could there be a dead chicken in there?" Le Wuyi squatted down, "Isn't this bitten to death? It's just the teeth marks..."

While Le Wuyi was speaking, another black shadow flashed away while the light and shadow on the wall moved, and disappeared again in the blink of an eye. The three of Shen Ye quickly turned around at the same time, and looked around warily.

Le Wuyi was taken aback: "What's wrong?"

Xia Yi retreated to Le Wuyi's side, his eyes just scanned the mountain walls on both sides: "Mr. Shen and Senior Xie also saw it?"

Shen Ye didn't answer, but Xie Yi nodded.

"I didn't hear the sound." Xie Yi said softly, but obviously all three of them saw a flashing black shadow.

Is it an animal?or something else?Is it related to the dead body of the rooster?

Le Wuyi stood up very quickly, saw the three of Shen Ye who were waiting for the battle, and recalled the illusion he thought just now, so he read it right?

So, there was a dark shadow following them all the time?

It's just that the four of them had been guarding for a long time, but the black shadow never appeared again. Shen Ye raised his arm in silence, and when the light of the flashlight moved, the dormant black shadows finally appeared before his eyes.
