Chapter 403: The Strange Sound of a Bell
Xiao Chen still decided to go back to the small cave to see if there were any clues.
The ten days agreed with Tsing Yi Hou are still quite long, and I can figure this matter out while I have this time.
……
Before the small cave, it was still the same ghostly appearance, and there was an army guarding it.
Xiao Chen's arrival aroused the vigilance of these warriors, and Xiao Chen did not embarrass ordinary people's hobbies.
handed over his documents to the person in charge, and after his identity was confirmed, Xiao Chen received extremely high treatment.
Xiao Chen found that the vigilant soldiers here didn't seem to be in good spirits, and even many of them had dark circles under their eyes.
It's like I haven't slept well in a long time.
Xiao Chen probed, there was no ghost energy, demon energy or anything like that around, why was the spirit of these warriors so bad.
Moreover, the surroundings were heavily guarded, and there were even heavy weapons such as tanks, Xiao Chen was a little puzzled.
"Is there something wrong with this heavily guarded place?"
The person in charge here is a rather dignified middle-aged man named Zhang Zhimiao, who is also a cultivator, and should have come out of the cobwebs.
After listening to Xiao Chen's inquiry, Zhang Zhimiao said with a sad face: "Originally, there was no need to guard here, but since the last exploration of the academy, it has caused a lot of casualties. ”
"Everyone also knows that this little cave is too dangerous, and no one dares to come at all. ”
"But since a month ago, every midnight, there has been a strange bell ringing in the mountains. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Zhimiao shuddered, he exhaled a little nervously, and continued.
"The bell sounds cold, but it spreads far and wide. ”
"People in a small town 200 kilometers away from here are awakened by the sound of the bell every day in the middle of the night. ”
"Now it's causing panic in people's hearts, and the top has to send someone to solve the problem. ”
Xiao Chen nodded and asked, "Did you find the problem?"
Zhang Zhimiao shook his head and said, "Alas, what is the problem, I haven't even figured out where the bell came from." ”
"I've been here for more than a month, and I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. ”
Looking at Zhang Zhimiao's suspicious appearance, Xiao Chen felt a little funny.
But it can't be said that he is timid, ringing the bell in the middle of the night, and he is still in this big mountain.
Whoever stays for more than a month is estimated to be no better.
"I'll go to Xiaodongtian to have a look, and I'll help you get things sorted out if I can. ”
Xiao Chen walked towards the entrance of the small cave, and Zhang Zhimiao followed behind with a thousand thanks.
Xiao Chen's name, those of them who came out of the cobwebs, who have not heard of it.
With the help of this great god, maybe we can really solve the problem.
Thinking that maybe she would be able to sleep well tomorrow, Zhang Zhimiao's tears of excitement almost came out.
Xiao Chen came to the small cave in front of the sky, and gusts of yin wind blew around, which made people feel creepy.
Xiao Chen looked around and asked, "Have you ever thought that the sound of the bell may come from the small cave sky?"
Zhang Zhimiao shuddered and said, "I must have thought about this as well, but the ghost bell is ethereal, and I can't tell the source at all." ”
At this moment, the sky is already dark, and it is already gloomy here.
Zhang Zhimiao said and spoke, but he was very scared of himself.
Zhang Zhimiao swallowed his saliva and continued: "And what kind of bell sound can pass through the small cave and come here?"
Xiao Chen nodded, theoretically speaking, Xiaodongtian and the present world are two different spaces, no matter what the sound is, it should not be transmitted.
This thing is weird everywhere, Xiao Chen still decided to wait until midnight to see for himself.
"I'll go in and have a look, and I'll come out when the bell rings. Xiao Chen instructed and stepped into the small cave sky.
Zhang Zhimiao looked at the gray sky, and couldn't help but shiver again, feeling bursts of cold air drilling into his skin.
"Hell place. Zhang Zhimiao took three steps and made two steps and hurriedly ran away from here.
……
In the small cave sky, the black clouds above the sky are still very low, which makes people a little breathless.
Withered vines and grass everywhere made the little cave even more bleak and terrifying.
The lifeless place was lifeless, and Xiao Chen walked among the small dirt bags.
The average person may be driven crazy by this environment where everything is gone.
But Xiao Chen likes this environment very much because it is quiet.
Xiao Meili got out of Xiao Chen's arms, because she had just burned Xiao Chen's head not long ago, Xiao Meili shrank her neck, like a child who had done something wrong.
Xiao Chen put Xiao Meili on his shoulders and didn't blame her.
A man and a bird, just walking quietly on the desolate land.
Xiao Meimei's eyes were a little moist, because she hadn't seen this scene for a long time.
In the past, when the Demon Emperor controlled his body, his favorite thing to do was to walk slowly in the void.
There is no purpose, no direction, just go on like that.
Xiao Meili still remembered what the emperor said to her.
"To live is to go on until you die. ”
……
Night is gradually approaching, and the night inexorably erodes the rare silence.
Countless rustling sounds like silkworms gnawing on mulberry leaves sounded in the dark night.
There were gusts of whistling wind in the dark night, and the monsters in the night, wrapped in darkness, rushed towards Xiao Chen, an uninvited guest.
The demonic qi on Xiao Chen's body gushed out, forming circles around him.
Xiao Meili healed the scar and forgot the pain, and began to play with fire again.
Xiao Meimei's mouth opened, and black flames erupted from her mouth, covering the circle formed by those demonic qi.
The black ring of fire kept beating in the night.
Those monsters that rushed up were vaporized in an instant.
Just burned all the way through, and those monsters were killed and injured countless times.
In the end, wherever Xiao Chen passed, those monsters automatically stayed away more than a kilometer.
Along the way, I didn't find anything useful.
Xiao Chen sat in front of a dirt bag like a tired pedestrian.
Xiao Chen gently dusted off the weeds for the simple tombstone in front of the dirt bag.
The tombstone is engraved on it, "Invite the Palace Master of the Moon Palace, the tomb of Nalan Co." ”
"What a strange name, who took a wrong name and made a mistake?"
Xiao Meili jumped on the tombstone, and as a result, she was slapped with a chestnut by Xiao Chen.
Xiao Meili shrunk her neck and jumped back to Xiao Chen's shoulder, she almost forgot that the emperor had great respect for the dead.
Xiao Chen sat quietly, since there was no clue, he could only sit and wait for the strange bell to ring.
I don't know when, above the inky sky, a little starlight was revealed.
The starlight flowed in the night, unusually dazzling in this oppressive world.
With the appearance of that little starlight, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded between heaven and earth.
"Jingle bells, jingle bells......"
Far and near, with a hint of joy, but more of a sadness.
There are only three chapters today...... It's too cold, no air conditioning, haha......
