Chapter 264: Lack of Thunderbolts, Hills and Mountains Collapse
Bai Xiu swept his gaze in other directions, but the rain was really too big, and he couldn't tell if Ye Xuan was nearby at all.
"Officer Ye!" Lao Zhang shouted loudly, but the surroundings seemed to be surrounded by the sound of rain in a confined space, and there was no other sound at all.
He shook his head at Bai Xiu helplessly, and at this moment, the figure slowly turned around.
"Ah!" Lao Zhang exclaimed, and when he saw Lao Liu glaring at him, he immediately covered his mouth, and then whispered, "It doesn't seem to be a mountain ghost, but, but the corpse of that little girl!"
Pockets of pus grew out of Wei Wei's face, and blue-and-white maggots wriggled in it, and black and red dirty blood continued to gush out of it, washed by the rain, and gathered into a puddle under her feet, and then slowly meandered in front of them. A foul smell wafted in, and in just one afternoon, she had rotted to the point of decay.
Bai Xiu couldn't suppress a trace of sadness in his heart, maybe he could never imagine how the lively and cheerful Wei Wei could become like this. And why did she appear here when they had buried her?, and finally he made up his mind that he couldn't watch her corpse in the wilderness no matter what.
As soon as he took a step, Wei Wei's stiff body did suddenly tremble, and then he walked towards him step by step. Her hands were almost all white bones, and the black and red flesh hung on them and shook silently, and then they grabbed Bai Xiu's arm tightly.
"Ho-ho-" Her white eyes rolled, and two bloody tears suddenly flowed.
Lao Liu said suddenly: "She used the power of her soul to hang her last consciousness, and she is already a spiritual rotting corpse, and when her corpse is completely decomposed, her soul will not exist." She risked her soul to find you, and she must have some wish you want to help her fulfill. โ
Bai Xiu didn't dare to look at her, and nodded with tears in her eyes: "Okay, no matter what you want me to do, I promise you." โ
"Ho-ho-" Wei Wei's hand clenched tighter and tighter, as if she was telling something, and finally she fell to her knees, and her bones were in the dirt, and she wrote two words deeply-Ye Xuan.
Bai Xiu's tears burst instantly, and he choked up: "I promise you, I will definitely find him, and then take him out of this place...... As long as I'm alive, I'll never let anything happen to him. โ
Wei Wei's hand still gripped him, his sharp fingers almost sinking into his flesh, as if this was the only way to make him remember this promise.
"Ho-ho-" The air flow stirred back and forth in her throat, but she couldn't say anything, and suddenly her body convulsed, and all the flesh and blood seemed to melt, and instantly turned into a pool of blood, along with the gray skeleton, stumbling and collapsing into a cloud of flying sand, which was soon dispersed by the heavy rain and disappeared.
"Alas, why bother......" After a long time, Lao Zhang sighed.
Bai Xiu stood for a moment, and finally said, "Let's go." โ
Seeing him leave, Lao Zhang stopped talking, turned to look at Lao Liu, but saw him slowly shake his head and quickly followed.
Boom โ
"Officer Ye!"
The rain became heavier and heavier, like a giant beast trying to swallow the whole canyon. Lao Zhang opened his throat and shouted a few times, but his voice was quickly swallowed up by the roaring thunder.
Suddenly, Lao Liu pointed in a direction and said, "The place where the collapse before was there." โ
Bai Xiu looked over, but only saw a vague black shadow, so he wanted to go over and take a look, but he stopped. Lao Liu said in a deep voice: "The mountain over there has not yet collapsed, it is very dangerous, we can't go over!"
Bai Xiu made up his mind, he had a hunch that Ye Xuan was very likely to be there.
The two of them could not resist him, so they cautiously leaned down the cliff. Before long, their feet became rugged, and the sand and gravel mixed with the rain became a swamp, and at the end there was almost no place to put their feet.
Lao Zhang suddenly said: "The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and soon this place will become a deep pool, we have to hurry up." โ
Lao Liu glanced at the other side and said to Bai Xiu: "You wait for me here, I'll go over and take a look, if Xiao Ye is not there, we will continue to walk into the canyon." โ
Bai Xiu was about to shake his head, but before he could speak, Lao Zhang had already smiled and said: "Don't worry, his kung fu is the most suitable for such a place, and letting him go alone can save a lot of time." Brother Bai, you also want to find Officer Ye quickly, don't you?"
What he said was reasonable, and Bai Xiu had to smile embarrassedly: "Then it will trouble Mr. Liu." โ
Lao Liu nodded lightly, then pulled out a ball of hemp rope from his waist, untied it and tied it to one end of the stone, threw it to the flat ground on the opposite side, and tied the other end to the stone on this side, and he was gearing up and taking a few steps back, as if he was accumulating strength.
Lao Zhang said with interest: "Look at it, Brother Liu is about to perform his specialty." โ
Bai Xiu had actually thought about what he wanted, and sure enough, when he saw Lao Liu, he stepped on the hemp rope that was only the thickness of one finger with a few soft sounds, and then, his ingenuity that came from nowhere was like hanging in the air, and he stepped on the air.
When he jumped back to the ground again, Bai Xiu found that the hemp rope that was clinging to the mud surface did not sink at all, and this old Liu was really as light as a swallow.
Seeing the look of surprise on his face, Lao Zhang said proudly: "This is just a small trick, for Brother Liu, no matter how high the cliff is, it is not a problem." โ
Over there, Lao Liu had already walked towards the source of the collapse. Bai Xiu waited nervously, and after about ten minutes, he finally saw Lao Liu turn back. At the same time, his heart sank, and only Lao Liu came back alone, which naturally meant that he did not find Ye Xuan's whereabouts.
Sure enough, when Lao Liu stepped on the hemp god again, he said regretfully: "There is no one inside, it is estimated that he also went to the mountain." โ
Lao Zhang looked at Bai Xiu and proposed, "Let's go over and have a look now?"
Bai Xiu sighed, and now it was all right. It's just that...... Bai Xiu still looked into the shadows, the strange feeling in his heart still hadn't dissipated, it was like an intuition, quietly telling him that Ye Xuan was there.
While hesitating, Lao Liu suddenly waved his hand, signaling them not to speak and listen carefully. After a while, he looked puzzled and asked, "Did you hear anything?"
Bai Xiu was stunned, then he also listened attentively, and sure enough, he heard a familiar roar that was like thunder but somewhat different. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly reacted, is this the sound of the water flowing when Hongyuan Island was submerged before!
"Let's go!" he said to the two of them, "Go up the mountain!"
Lao Zhang was stunned and asked, "Could it be that there is a mudslide there again?" We are so far away, we should be fine, and this sound is not right......
Bai Xiu couldn't laugh or cry, but fortunately, Lao Liu instantly understood what he meant, and said in a deep voice: "It's not a mudslide, it's a mountain flood!"
Lao Zhang reacted at this time, sighed, and retreated towards the valley with a rolling belt, and did not forget to complain as he walked: "How can we have a flash flood here, it doesn't make sense......"
The three of them did not choose the same path, and as soon as they walked out of the fork in the road, there was a sudden tremor under their feet, and at the same time, a monstrous wave came first and instantly forced over.
Although they ran down the mountain, the steep cliff made people desperate. Seeing that the torrent was getting closer and closer, Lao Zhang smiled bitterly and said to Lao Liu: "We can't do it, Brother Liu, go up the mountain quickly, you can live one by one!"
Bai Xiu also agreed with his words, nodded and said, "Mr. Liu, you go up first, and then we will think of other ways." โ
Lao Liu snorted coldly, jumped in luck, and his two palms were like geckos, sucking the stone wall tightly, and he turned around and said with a smile: "Why are you still stunned, hug my legs, with me, I can't go up the mountain?"
Lao Zhang laughed, hugged his left leg tightly, and said to Bai Xiu proudly: "Come on, I'll wait for his words!"
Bai Xiu couldn't help but smile, he didn't expect that at this life-and-death juncture, there was a rare ease in his heart.
Lao Liu has two big living people hanging on his body, but his body is extremely flexible, like a swimming dragon, like a shock, and he climbed to the top of the mountain in an instant. Seeing him gasping for a few breaths without a trace, Lao Zhang couldn't help but tease: "If you don't accept it, you can't do it, you are also old!"
Seeing his displeasure, Lao Zhang suddenly laughed: "Yes, yes, we are all old." โ
Lao Liu rolled his eyes, turned around and looked at Bai Xiu meaningfully: "You are indeed not a human, but a ghost." โ
His brainless sentence made Lao Zhang suddenly shout: "Lao Liu, why don't you talk nonsense, we must have been mistaken before, you see that Bai Xiu has a body and is no different from ordinary people, how can it be a ghost!"
Lao Liu smiled indifferently: "The ghost I'm talking about is not the ghost in the mouth of ordinary people, but the ghost clan in the land of listening to the soul." Oni are essentially different from humans, but it's hard to tell from their appearances alone. โ
Lao Zhang's expression changed suddenly, his eyes looked Bai Xiu up and down, and muttered, "Could it be that the legend of the ghost clan is true?"
The two looked at each other with burning eyes, but Bai Xiu couldn't give them an answer, maybe this was also the question he had been afraid ofโwho was he? Bai Xiu, Zheng Ruxin, or neither?
At that moment, he suddenly realized that he also knew very little about himself, which was ridiculous in itself.
"I'm not a ghost, I'm nothing ......"
He was in a daze, but he heard a louder movement coming from down the mountain. Bai Xiu came back to his senses and followed the sound, but saw that the mountain torrent did not flow out of the canyon along the original river, but changed direction, and continued to hit a mountain not far away.
"What a storm crashing on the shore!" Lao Zhang suddenly clapped his hands and exclaimed.
Lao Liu's expression changed slightly, and his eyes stared at it motionlessly.
Rumble!
A bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, and a deafening thunderclap seemed to emanate from the ground and echo through the canyon.
Airplanes!
Like a giant, the waves used their strong arms as weapons to pound the stone walls under their feet. Suddenly, a ray of light burst out from the top of the mountain, illuminating the turbid rocks and streams magnificently, and then disappeared into the rain curtain as a starry sky.
A bolt of lightning lit up from the depths of the glow, and a huge roar rang out again, but instead of thunder, the mountain collapsed!
The columns lack thunderbolts, and the hills collapse!
Woo โ
The torrent was victorious, and whistled away from the gap, turning into a white dragon and disappearing into the mountain.
Bai Xiu finally came back to his senses, and then heard Lao Liu mutter: "The mountain gate is open, the mountain gate is open, and what is written on it is true......"
