Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Corpse
This thing came too strangely, and Le Shan beckoned to the two private soldiers, motioning for them to go ahead and explore the way.
The two privates were frightened by the sound, so they had to tremble and use their guns to pull away the branches in front of them and walk forward little by little.
They had never thought that the distance of 20 meters would be so difficult to walk, as if they would be pounced by a beast in the night if they walked any faster.
Leshan: "What are you grinding and chirping, hurry up!"
The two privates had no choice but to speed up, and their figures soon became dim in the night, and the shaking of the branches and leaves on both sides became smaller and smaller. The layer of Yanchi's private army's combat uniforms on their bodies was still a little reflective at first, but in the end, the reflective color gradually faded, and when this color was completely invisible, the figures of the two disappeared into the night.
Because Leshan couldn't see the movements of the two pathfinder private troops, he had to frown and wait in place.
Bai Ye quietly listened to the changes in his surroundings, in addition to his eyesight, his hearing was also beyond ordinary people, and he could hear a little bit of the subtle sounds that others couldn't hear as long as he listened carefully.
At this moment, he could still hear the footsteps of the two private soldiers, and the sound of squeaking, crunching, and the owner of this sound did not seem to be worried that these footsteps would affect him.
However, just five minutes later, the chewing sound suddenly stopped, and then the footsteps of the two private soldiers also stopped in an instant!
Several of the privates were looking ahead with their heels on their heels, causing the group to breathe rather chaotically.
"Slow down your breathing, the footsteps of the two of them are gone!" Bai Ye stopped his hand in mid-air and motioned for everyone to be silent.
For a while, there was no sound of chewing or footsteps in the forest, and even the sound of breathing was much more stable, but unfortunately when he tried to distinguish something by sound, the 20 meters ahead could not provide him with any useful information.
Leshan: "Do you hear anything?"
"Nope. Bai Ye replied very simply, if Ling Shan was here, he might be able to hear more, but he couldn't.
He doesn't have any special skills to enhance his sense of hearing, and his hearing is only a little better than that of ordinary people.
He held his bow in front of him, dagger in his hand, and slowly moved forward. To his surprise, Le Shan patted him on the shoulder, and then walked from him to the front without saying a word, and at the same time lowered his voice and said: "You follow me, and when you encounter an irresistible factor, you will immediately flee back with them, don't hesitate." ”
Although Bai Ye was surprised by his move, he still nodded and slowed down and followed behind Le Shan.
Their speed was not as slow as the previous two private armies, and a group of private armies quickly advanced forward in a triangle, and the distance of 20 meters was reached in less than a moment.
The creaking sound of chewing became clearer and clearer, like the roar of a demon in the endless darkness drawing infinitely closer to the ground, but the sound was always like a veil of mist, although clear, it was extremely unreal.
Le Shan took the lead in removing the branches and leaves in front of him, as if he had lifted a layer of ethereal mist, and the originally ethereal voice became extremely real in an instant!
Crunch!
The voice still rings in my ears.
Everyone stared at everything in front of them with wide eyes, as if they would miss the incredible scene in front of them in the blink of an eye. Their eyes were shocked and incredulous at this moment, and some of them almost rubbed their eyeballs out.
"Le, Brother Le, why don't we go, it's too evil here!"
"Uh-huh. ”
At this moment, even Le Shan's legs and stomach were a little weak, and he would rather see a bloody corpse in front of him than the current weird situation.
He was sure it was coming from his eyes, but there was nothing but trees!
They searched around for the source of the sound, and he turned over the branches and leaves around them, not even the soil beneath the roots, but found nothing, and the figure still echoed in their ears.
"Retreat to the cave first, and wait until dawn to make plans. Leshan quickly issued an order.
"Wait a minute. ”
Bai Ye looked up at the treetops, and every gap between the branches and leaves was carefully sifted by him, even the mosquitoes hidden in centimeters were not spared, and all the books around him were sifted by him within half a minute.
Just when he felt a little pain in his neck, a vine hanging down the treetops caught his attention. The vines hung in the air, and they couldn't be spotted in the dark forest without looking closely.
He walked in and touched it, it was slippery and sticky. He put the mucus on it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, and his eyebrows instantly wrinkled: "This is the smell of blood!"
When Le Shan heard this, he hurriedly walked over and sniffed it, nodded and said, "It's not very thick, you can't smell it at all if you don't get close, but judging from the wetness of the blood, it should be fresh blood." ”
"But this is very contradictory, how can fresh blood not smell bloody?" The private army on the side was puzzled.
Bai Ye held the vine and said in a heavy tone: "There is a possibility that there will be such a result, that is, the blood is drunk dry, and only a little blood flows down the vine." ”
After speaking, he pulled the vines hard, only to hear a bang, and three black shadows fell from the treetops like dumplings and smashed to the ground.
Bang!
Everyone looked in the direction of the dull sound, and saw three shriveled corpses lying on the ground in an extremely twisted position, their expressions were different, their limbs were twisted very much, and they obviously struggled violently before they died.
And most of these corpses were incomplete, and one of them was missing half of an arm, and the broken part of the arm was extremely untidy, as if it had been bitten out by an animal.
The other two corpses were each gnawed off a piece of flesh on their faces, revealing the white bones inside, which looked particularly penetrating.
The biggest similarity between them is a two-centimeter-wide wound on the neck, which is in the shape of a round hole, which has been pierced alive from the outside of the skin, and then the blood is drained from the whole body.
What surprised him was that two of the three corpses were the private army sent out by Leshan just now, it was only less than five minutes since their footsteps disappeared, what could have done to kill two people in such a short period of time, and drain the blood from all over the body?
