Chapter 237: Paper Piercing Man
Bai Xiu thought about it, and walked towards the center of the ancient city, and not long after, a voice suddenly came from the open space in front of the lake.
Bai Xiu's heart moved, and he hurriedly quickened his pace, walked out of the alley, and swept his eyes, and saw six people sitting there resting, with three backpacks neatly placed beside him.
Perhaps they heard his footsteps as well, and they all turned around.
He swept his gaze, Fang Ling, Fang Xun, Li Kan, Wu Xun, Fang Xin, and Fang Jin were not bad.
Fang Xin and Fang Jin both cast worried glances, and Fang Xun stood up angrily and said, "Where did you go? We didn't see you when we came back after searching the city!"
Bai Xiu was happy at first, but then a cold air suddenly climbed up his back.
Seeing that he was stunned in place, Fang Jin beckoned to him, moved his body, and made room for him.
Bai Xiu sat down distractedly, and then listened to Li Kan's seemingly joking and seemingly targeted words: "Bai Xiu, you said that you helped us guard, but you have been away for so long, it can't be planning something, right?"
Fang Jin said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, we can talk about anything openly and honestly, there is no need to beat around the bush. ”
Li Kan smiled: "Then you ask where he went?"
Bai Xiu was silent, just thinking about one thing, could it be that he had returned to the bottom of the cliff?
No, not only did he go back to that time, he couldn't help but look at the three backpacks, he clearly remembered that he and Fang Jin only took two.
Could it be that what should have happened has gone in a different direction?
Bai Xiu looked at all six of them quietly, and when his eyes fell on Fang Xin, he noticed that something was wrong.
There was quite a bit of blood on her shoulder, and if he remembered correctly, it should have been left by him.
He quietly looked at Fang Jin again, and sure enough, he saw that there was still the hole on his shirt that had been poked open by the Demon Breaking Blade.
Something is wrong, something is so wrong.
He couldn't help but glance at Fang Xin and the others, could it be that they were the same as him, just acting?
Thinking about him, he whispered to Fang Jin and asked, "Third Brother Fang, why did you leave suddenly before?"
Fang Jin looked at him carefully, and then wondered, "What?"
”
Seeing that his expression darkened, Fang Jin said again: "Did you find anything? As soon as I saw you, I found that your situation was not right." ”
Bai Xiu's heart sank, but he still said tentatively: "We fell from that lake to the bottom of the cliff, have you forgotten......"
Bai Xiu pointed to the lake in the center of the city, but the next second his words stopped abruptly, almost frozen in place.
The void in the lake turned into a staircase that zigzags down!
Fang Jin looked at him worriedly: "I entered the city with Ah Xin and them, and after searching for a while, I found this entrance, I wanted to discuss with you, but unfortunately you are not there...... By the way, where did you go before?"
Bai Xiu couldn't help but think, maybe this was the right direction for things to develop, and everything under the cliff was just his imagination.
But what about the traces on Fang Xin and Fang Jin's bodies?
If it wasn't for some other illusion, it was that they had discussed and deceived themselves.
Just as he was unsettled, Fang Ling had already spoken: "It seems that this is the only way out, if we have a good rest, we will continue to move forward." ”
The others didn't seem to have any opinion, and they all nodded.
I have to say that Fang Ling does have great potential as a leader, and he quickly took over the position that Bai Xiu was supposed to be responsible for, of course, this is also the result of Li Kan's fanning of the flames.
As soon as a few people discussed, Fang Xun, Li Kan, and Fang Jin carried backpacks in front, Bai Xiu was in the middle, and Fang Ling, Fang Xin, and Wu Xun were in the back.
For such an arrangement, Bai Xiu couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
Suspicion of him is like a seed sown by Li Kan, which took root in the hearts of several people.
Bai Xiu inevitably thought, could it be that this Li Kan is not the real Li Kan, but the impostor?
After all, he has dealt with Li Kan, and he remembers his straightforwardness very well, and people can't always be so fickle.
Or Li Kan was so thoughtful that even he was deceived.
He remembered that the spiritual power fluctuation of that fake Li Kan, if it was really him, then he had to guard against it.
This person's strength is absolutely extraordinary, and he is by no means a good type, it would be bad if the things that robbed the heavens fell into his hands.
What's more, he's not alone.
Bai Xiu looked at Wu Xun, if they really made a move, they might not be opponents of the two, because they had never been of the same mind.
The wide staircase twisted and turned, and the deep pit at the bottom of the lake looked only a few tens of meters, but they walked for half an hour.
Beneath the stairs is a cobblestone path, covered with moss, and muddy all around, making it look like a lake that only appears when the water is diverted away.
Bai Xiu couldn't help but think of Hongyuan Island, could it be that there is any outlet at the bottom of this lake?
He looked up, but he didn't find anything like it, only a tall and narrow stone door standing under the stone wall on the right.
Naturally, others saw it too.
Fang Xun suddenly said: "It seems that the mysterious and mysterious will not be wrong, who has nothing to do to build a passage under the lake." ”
The crowd walked over and pushed the stone door open, revealing a damp and deep passageway.
It was still Fang Xun who took the lead, and everyone slowly walked in.
Almost instantly, a musty smell came to his face, Fang Xun scolded secretly, and then turned on the flashlight.
After a few steps, there was a sound of rustling in front of me, as if some mysterious resident lived in this narrow space.
Li Kan swept the flashlight and suddenly said, "It's okay, it's just some toads, not poisonous." ”
Fang Ling immediately snorted in disgust and scolded, "This ghost place doesn't even have mosquitoes, this thing is quite adaptable." ”
Fortunately, the passage soon came to an end.
The terrain in front of him suddenly opened up, and the flashlight hit it, and it was instantly engulfed by darkness, which seemed to be a large space.
She immediately urged, and soon they walked out.
Fang Xun hurriedly turned up the flashlight a few points, and several small gray and white buildings appeared in everyone's sight.
Bai Xiu was suddenly a little surprised in his heart, could it be that there was an ancient city of Hongyuan Island here?
But soon he realized that he had taken it for granted, the white walls and gray tiles of these buildings in front of him were more delicate and simple, and the style was closer to the style of some Jiangnan gardens.
Moreover, countless small buildings are scattered on a hillside, but there is no pattern, but it looks like an ordinary village.
Suddenly, a few dog barks came from not far away, and he couldn't help but be startled.
Not only him, but everyone else couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts, could it be that there are still people living here?
It's just that it's night, and all the residents here are sleeping?
The six of them looked at each other, Fang Xun was the most anxious, and immediately said: "Regardless of it, let's go over and have a look first." ”
Everyone found a bluestone path and walked quickly.
It's just that they don't know why, they can't help but let go of their footsteps, as if they are afraid of disturbing something.
Soon, the outermost house was in sight, and the barking of the dog was also heard.
Everyone listened with bated breath, but there was nothing left.
Fang Xun looked at it and saw that the door was just a false button, so he swallowed his saliva and whispered, "I opened the door?"
He stretched out his hand and nudged it, and the scarlet door creaked open.
He looked around for a while, and saw a shadow wall inside, and the bluestone pavement extended from under the door and disappeared behind it.
"I'm in?" he reckoned that he was a little hairy in his heart, and that this place always felt strange, so he asked the others inquiringly.
Seeing that they all nodded, he took the lead in going inside.
Bai Xiu walked at the end, first probed intently, and only followed after making sure that there was no abnormality.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had already walked through the patio towards the innermost main building.
The door of the hall was also unlocked, Fang Xun pushed the door open, and did not go in, but just stretched out his head to look.
"If you don't dare to go in, get out of the way. Fang Ling was immediately dissatisfied, she was bolder, and as soon as she pushed him, she stepped in.
The others hurriedly followed.
Suddenly, she snorted and pointed to the red and black but extremely bright furniture.
"It's strange, you see, there's no dust here, it proves that there have always been people, we broke in so aggressively, why didn't the host react at all?"
Wu Xun also said: "This place is so wide, where did the dog go?"
Fang Xun swept the rooms on both sides and said, "Not at home, won't you sleep too dead?"
He walked to the room on the right, pushed open the door, and shook his head at everyone: "It's strange, this is an empty room, and there is nothing in it." ”
He walked to the left again, and after a glance, he ran back.
He lowered his voice and said, "Damn, it's true, there are two people lying on the bed inside! I don't know if they are dead or what, they don't even have a sound of breathing!"
Everyone noticed that something was wrong and hurriedly went in with him to take a look.
This is a very spacious bedroom with a desk, chairs, wardrobes, and even a make-up mirror.
And in the far back of the room, there was an old-fashioned bed with two entrances against the wall, and in the dim light, sure enough, two people were curled upright under the big red quilt.
Such a strange scene made everyone present feel a shock in their hearts.
In the end, Fang Jin cautiously leaned over, pulled out the pith blade sword, and slowly opened the curtain in front of the bed.
In just an instant, two white and swollen faces appeared in everyone's sight without warning!
I don't know who screamed and woke up the others in an instant.
Fang Ling suddenly realized something, and said tremblingly: "This village is quiet, could it be, could it be that the other residents have also been killed?"
Everyone present felt a chill, and Fang Jin proposed, "It's too weird here, let's leave first." ”
The others nodded and were about to turn around and leave, but saw Bai Xiu walking silently towards the bed.
Fang Xun suddenly said impatiently: "Hey, what are you going to do?"
Bai Xiu was a little helpless, the strange atmosphere at the moment made everyone impatient, but he didn't find the most critical point.
He lifted the quilt straight, and the two bulging bodies were completely exposed.
Unlike delicate heads, they were so tattered that even the strips under their skin were fangs and claws.
Fang Xun was suddenly a little speechless: "Paper, paper piercing people?"
Only then did the others react and hurriedly walked over to take a look.
But no, even if it is a real head, if you look closely, you can still see traces of paste sticking.
"Ge Laozi, who the hides this thing on the bed to scare people!" Thinking that he was just timid, Fang Xun was extremely angry, pushed the others away, and lifted the two paper people and threw them aside.
They have long since decayed, and before they have landed, they have been torn apart.
"Hey!" Fang Ling couldn't help frowning, "This thing is ghostly, don't move, what if you provoke something!"
Her careless words made the others shudder.
Wu Xun's voice was a little hoarse, and he slowly spoke: "Do you think these houses look a little familiar?"
Fang Ling's expression changed, and he said astringently: "Paper binding room." ”
