Chapter 175: Stone Road
Shi Wen carried the huge stone axe, hanging his head slightly, and the night wind blew past him, lifting his bangs, so that people could barely glimpse those eyebrows. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It was not an ordinary pair of eyes.
But it's not the eyes of an ordinary stone demon.
The well-defined eyes glowed red, and the corners of the eyes were hanging up, and there were no pupils.
The three of them all widened their eyes, Shi Wen's appearance at the moment was too weird.
Another wisp of wind blew, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air, and the brows of the demon question suddenly frowned.
Shi He stretched out his hand and tugged at Qingtian's sleeve, and said softly: "Sister, this place is weird. ”
Qingtian didn't even have time to ask anything, but he was startled by Shi Wen, who suddenly looked up.
Shi Wen's red eyes glared at Shi He viciously, and his red eyes without pupils looked strange and terrifying. But there was something strange about that in those eyes.
From anger to jealousy, from jealousy to struggle, there were too many things in those eyes that Xiao Qingtian couldn't understand.
But I didn't have a chance to give her an idea.
Shi Wen looked at Shi He for a long, long time, his lips moved slightly, but in the end he still didn't say anything.
Those eyes suddenly closed, with obvious force, for a long time.
It seems to be struggling and seems to be self-soothing.
After a long time, those eyes suddenly opened again, and their eyes were red but less demonic, and more difficult to hide.
Under the motionless staring of the three of them, Shi Wen moved.
Sunny was ready to fight back almost immediately.
But Shi Wen just dragged the giant axe and turned back in silence.
The sound of the stone axe dragging along the brick path was sharp and unpleasant, but he looked straight ahead as if he hadn't heard it, and walked down without squinting.
His figure gradually disappeared from the sight of the three of them, and only the hunting in the night wind proved that there was indeed a crazy and stubborn person who had appeared here.
He walked firmly and alone on that road, knowing that it was a dead end.
Such a sentence suddenly came to Qingtian's mind.
This person...
What's the story?
She didn't know. But, she suddenly wanted to know.
"Sister!" Shi He shook the sunny sky.
Qingtian came back from his distraction and looked down at the boy on his lap, "Huh?"
"We've got to go and see. Shihe stretched out his hand to the darkness in the distance.
Qingtian frowned, that was the direction Shi Wen had gone before. Glancing at the demon question, the two decisively decided to listen to Shihe.
Although Shi He is a child who has not grown up, in the short time since he came out of the lake, he has already proved his perception ability to the two of them twice.
Although it is not necessarily a foreknowledge, it is always something related to this aspect, after all, Shihe's identity is quite special - stone demon father + hairpin spirit girl + lotus prototype.
Maybe he hasn't noticed it yet, but Qingtian and Youwen have clearly felt it.
Shi Wen had dragged the stone axe along the stone path into the darkness. He didn't walk fast, but the City Lord's Mansion was originally dark without lights, and there was no figure at all at a distance.
And as Shi Wen's figure disappeared, the sound of the stone axe dragging disappeared out of thin air.
The boundless darkness of the night, and the silence of only breathing, suddenly became strange.
It's like when a supernatural BGM exclusive to a movie suddenly sounds.
There was a touch of weirdness in Qingtian's heart, and the steps of the three of them slowed down unconsciously.
If I had to find a reason for this weirdness, it would only be the smell of blood in the air that was getting stronger and stronger.
Qingtian swept the child on his lap with his peripheral vision.
Shi He's two little hands tightly covered his mouth and nose, and his little face turned pale.
Reaching out and touching the invisible bag, he found a small white porcelain jar, which was a bottle of essential oil taken from the depth of field, and I don't know what plant he extracted it from, it smelled good.
Therefore, Qing Tian couldn't help but grab a small bottle, and the depth of the field said that he only had two bottles himself.
Lifting the lid of the white porcelain vial and stuffing it directly into the child's hand, Shi He raised his head and stared at her with round eyes.
Qingtian smiled at him and pointed to his nose. The child was very clever and immediately understood what she meant.
The bottle of essential oil with the lid pulled out was placed under the child's nose, and the faint aroma floated in the air, dispelling the increasingly strong smell of blood in the air.
The hiccup soon passed, and the three of them continued to walk along the path in silence.
Soon the surroundings were completely plunged into darkness, and the three of them slowed down a little, and a flame turned out from the palm of the sunny day, and the warm yellow flames floated up into the air, leading the way for everyone diagonally.
The three of them also saw the surrounding scenery clearly at this moment.
The path is lined with lush flowers and tall trees.
The two times I saw the panorama of the City Lord's Mansion was at night, and I never knew that there was such a place in this mansion on a sunny day.
This environment does not feel like the center of a big city, but like it is in some century-old forest.
The stone path is not narrow, and it is more than enough for three people to walk side by side. But when I looked up, I couldn't see the night sky at all.
The trees were too tall and the canopy was too thick, and the canopies on both sides of the road had grown together, obscuring the sky above the path.
In addition, it is late at night, and this environment has invisibly put a lot of pressure on the hearts of several people.
I used to feel that my surroundings were quiet when I couldn't see my surroundings in the dark, but when I realized that I was in the jungle, my senses seemed to expand countless times in an instant.
The chirping of small insects, the sound of snakes scratching and rubbing on the ground, the howl of some unnamed, the rustling of leaves...
The surroundings are particularly lively.
But there is always a strangeness in this excitement.
Even when I walked in the back mountains of Qingqiu Mansion, I had never felt as gloomy and lonely as this...
"Xiaohe, what do you think of this?" said the demon suddenly.
Looking over on a sunny day, he saw Youwen's rare frowning brows and a serious face.
"What's that?" Shi He whispered, pinching the bottle of essential oil.
Demon Wen shook his head, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.
Shihe is still a child, and he has always said whatever he wants, since he didn't take the initiative to speak this time, it must mean that he didn't feel anything strange about this place.
But...
The three of them continued to walk forward, but they did not step out of the path for a long time.
Under the warm yellow flames, the figures of the three of them were stretched extremely long on the stone path, overlapping each other, like a monster with five claws.
And when you look down, you can still see the marks of the stone axe on the stone slab. Qingtian's brow gradually furrowed.
The shadow of the demon and the stone river...
It seems to be slowly fading.
"Eh, do you think it's weird?" Sunny looked away from the shadow on the stone slab and looked up to ask the demon.
The eyes that had been puzzled suddenly widened.
"Demon asks!"
"Stone River!"
All she answered was the rustle of leaves on either side.
