Xi Ji squinted, was in the canopy of the top of the dizzy, in a daze, as if hearing the sound of a fight in the stern, but only lasted for a while and then stopped, and then came the shouts of the old river in the bow, and after a while, I heard the sound of someone falling into the water. Xi Ji finally couldn't bear it anymore in the canopy, lifted the curtain and poked into the bow of the boat, but she couldn't see Lao Jiang's figure, only Yin Shaohan stood there alone, Xi Ji was puzzled, and then looked towards the stern, only to see that there was no one in the stern, only her and Yin Shaohan on the whole boat.
"What about them?" Xi Ji walked out of the canopy and asked Yin Shaohan.
"Get in the way, kill." Yin Shaohan replied lightly, and said, "Although Xiao Yun and Xiao Lin are the least useful of those few, they also cost me a lot of effort. ”
"What! You killed them all? Xi Ji was shocked, and stepped back, and said, "Why did you do this?" Lao Jiang is just a boatman, you have to kill him too! ”
"For four days on the waterway, you have to face them with this fake face for four days in a row, aren't you afraid of being exposed?" After speaking, Yin Shaohan unveiled his right hand, uncovered the skin of "Xiao Mengling" on his face, and threw it into the river, "Secondly, I will go to Fennel this time, my every move must not be known to them, any of them are redundant, it will inevitably cause extraneous branches, I can only kill them." Third, we don't go by water. Before Xiji could react, Yin Shaohan had already docked with the boat and arrived in a barren realm.
"You madman!" Xi Ji shouted, she had known that Yin Shaohan was thoughtful, but she had never seen the viciousness outside of the meticulous, this time she saw it, it was shocking, the dead soldiers who came out of the Cloud Pavilion, are they all without exception, the blood and killing over the years have made them as terrifying as devils. Xi Ji thought of Mu Mingxue and Ye Wan, no, not all the dead soldiers who came out of the Cloud Pavilion were like this, but he Yin Shaohan was like this. She and Yin Shaohan came together to be extravagant, it was really a dilemma, she was worried that one day, Yin Shaohan would kill her together in order not to "make extraneous branches".
At this point, Xi Ji couldn't say a lot, she just calmed herself down quickly, slowly stepped off the boat, and asked, "If you really don't take the waterway, if you don't take the waterway, won't we have to spend a few more days traveling?" ”
Yin Shaohan smiled and said, "Definitely." On weekdays, the waterway is natural and smooth, but at this time it is early winter, the water level of the river drops, and the waterway is not smooth. Besides, I found an overland route yesterday, and if I had crossed it, it would have taken only three days to get to fennel. After speaking, Yin Shaohan walked into the distance. Xi Ji looked at the direction Yin Shaohan was heading and said, "I've been in Wulu for so long, and I never knew that going to Chongming Mountain would be a shortcut to fensang. ”
Who knew that Yin Shaohan turned around and said indifferently: "It's not Chongming Mountain, it's Lonely Valley." ”
"Silent Valley!" Yin Shaohan actually wants to go to the Valley of Silence! The Valley of Silence is a forbidden place for the Vultures, and no one can set foot on it, and it is rumored that it is because there are countless ghosts living there, but whoever enters it has never come out alive, so a few generations ago, it was the forbidden land of the Vultures, and everyone avoided it, and it is unknown whether the rumors are true or false.
"How do you know you'll save time by walking from the Valley of Silence?" Xi Ji followed behind Yin Shaohan and asked unconvinced.
"Yesterday I carefully read the map of Wuxuan, from the map found this place, according to the direction of the fennel, we go from the valley of silence, it is more convenient, but Xiao Feng let us take the waterway, so I secretly inquired, only to know that the valley of silence is a forbidden place, also called 'ghost valley', anyone who goes has no return. Sister Xiji, are you afraid? If you're scared? The boat is still there, you just have to walk by water, don't care. ”
"How could I be afraid?" After Xi Ji finished speaking, she followed Yin Shaohan's pace faster, "Even if there are really lonely souls and wild ghosts there, they are also here to find you, an outsider, what am I afraid of?" Xi Ji said this, but she still beat a drum in her heart, and then she didn't dare to make a sound.
Lu Xiji, who went to the Valley of Silence, had never set foot on it, and in the past, he only said that the lonely souls of the Valley of Silence were raging, and this road must be terrifying. This time I really left, only to find that this road turned out to be so pleasant. It may be precisely because no one dares to set foot here all year round that the plants and flowers here grow so luxuriantly, but Xi Ji thought about it, it is already winter at this time, how can there be such colorful and intoxicating flowers and plants? It's really peculiar. Unable to care about much, Xiji just looked at the camouflage around her and breathed in the refreshing fragrance.
I don't know how long I walked, but the flat road suddenly became narrow and began to slowly extend downward. It should have arrived at the entrance of the Valley of Silence, Xiji thought to herself, and then looked up at the sky, and sure enough, the dark clouds were getting denser and denser, and it seemed that a heavy rain had fallen.
Xiji took a deep breath and stepped into the Valley of Silence, and the surroundings were really deserted. At this time, the sky was overcast and gloomy, and the wind of the valley was blowing in my ears, and the eerie silence was eerie. Xi Ji glanced at Yin Shaohan, he was still walking calmly as always, so Xi Ji followed closely, thinking that even if there were really ghosts here, if he encountered a "ghost sorrow" like Yin Shaohan, he would probably be scared away.
The air became more and more dull, Xi Ji put away her gaze, didn't dare to look around, and could only follow Yin Shaohan to move forward.
There was a "squeak", Xiji was stunned for a moment, immediately stopped, stayed where she was, and looked in front of the right, "Did you hear anything?" Xiji asked softly.
Yin Shaohan looked back, Xiji's body shrunk together, only to feel funny, and looked at her feet again, so he said: "I don't know what sound is, I know very well what you are stepping on." ”
"Steppe? What are you stepping on?" she said, and Xiji looked down at her feet, "Ah!! Dead Man's Head!! Yes! It turned out to be the skull of a dead man, and Xiji was so frightened that she lost her soul, and the screams kept echoing in the valley.
Xi Ji hid behind Yin Shaohan in a panic and kicked the skull with her foot, and suddenly trembled. "Quack-quack-" The cries and flapping wings of birds sounded all around, and they were startled by the cry of the sunset, and they flew up from the branches where they were perched.
"It's just a skull, maybe someone accidentally walked into here, and then, like you, was scared to death by himself." Yin Shaohan then sneered, regardless of whether Xi Ji came back to his senses or not, he just quickened his pace and walked forward.
"Huh! You wait for me," Xiyi whispered behind her, walking in small steps.
"Those lonely souls and wild ghosts are just bullying me as an outsider, junior sister, you don't have to worry." As soon as Yin Shaohan finished speaking, his expression suddenly became tense, he stopped, closed his eyes and listened carefully, and said, "What's there?" ”
