Chapter 18: The Skull Cave

I rambled on a rambling note, but he didn't really care about it, and the worry in his eyes flashed, and he soon calmed down, and dragged me like a deep forest.

Because there are many strange insects and strange grasses in the forest, along the way, I have always been shrouded in a group of small flying insects above my head, flying around us, I can't tell how annoying I am, and I have to pay attention to it accidentally getting into the nose, sweating a little, and the neck is particularly itchy, I really can't stand it, "Let's just keep wandering?" ”

He glanced around coldly, "No, she should be nearby." ”

"Why don't we find a way to lure her out?" As soon as the words fell, a black shadow appeared in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, it quickly disappeared.

Seeing Leng Mu moving in the direction of the black shadow, I hurriedly grabbed him, "She is clearly guiding us, what if we follow and fall into her trap?" ”

He took my hand away and said coldly, "Do we have any other choice?" ”

Yes, he was right, now the situation has long changed, how can we still have the right to make our own decisions, Leng Mu hugged me, flew over in the forest, Coca smiled strangely not far away, jumped directly into the depths of the jungle, we chased after all the way, but the position of her belt became more and more remote, and when I turned back, I basically couldn't distinguish the way when I looked around, looking at the strange flowers and trees around us overlapping and surrounding us impermeable, I realized that this is the so-called deep mountain old forest, and we are getting closer and closer to the depths of the old forest, Although I am not very vigilant, it is not difficult to hear the movement around me, "I can't go any further." ”

Even if Leng Mu was in a hurry to catch Coca, he had already realized that something was wrong, and he stopped and looked around, except for the trunk of the tree with teeth and claws, and the sound of water not far away, he could no longer see Coca.

Obviously, she brought me and Leng Mu here for another purpose, to kill us. It was not known whether it was another transaction, and after chasing her for most of the day, it was already close to dusk, and the hideous ancient trees obscured the only daylight. The light in the forest was getting weaker and weaker, and seeing that it was about to get dark, I was about to carve a mark on the trunk of the tree and prepare to look for coca nearby, but the cold wood stopped me. "She's gone."

This sentence was enough to knock me into the endless abyss, and I was disappointed: "Huh? Didn't we chase her for nothing? ”

"Here's what I want, and she'll definitely come out when the deal is over."

I hesitated for a moment, but asked, "Can ...... Fat uncle, can they wait? ”

"Yes."

I patted my frightened heart, "So what can we do now?" ”

It is not suitable to walk around in the deep mountains and old forests late at night, so he put his arm around my shoulder, "There is a cave nearby, let's take refuge in it for the night." ”

I thought about it, and I was right. It's really too dangerous to walk around here after dark, and if we encounter a demon and put it aside, it's enough to meet a beast, bugs, and a series of wild animals, and nod our heads, "Okay." ”

He flew through the jungle with me in his arms, occasionally tiptoeing down on the trunk of a tree and stopping for a moment, and soon came to the cave to which he was pointed, and I hesitated for a moment, but swallowed the words, and he lowered me to the ground. "What do you want to say?"

At this time, we were standing not far from the cave, right in the middle of the cave, "It really looks like a cave, how can it be so similar to a skull." It can't be a ghost cave, right? "It's not that I'm afraid of ghosts, but we've had enough of it, and it's better to have more than less, and I don't want to go into it and mix it up with other hiccupes.

I also understand the meaning of cold wood, and if you don't take refuge in the cave for one night, there are a lot of strange insects here. There are often wild beasts infested, let alone resting at that time, even if you pay twelve points of attention, in the dark ancient forest, you may die at any time.

He stared at the mouth of the cave, paused, and said solemnly, "There may be dried corpses inside...... Come in if you don't want to die. ”

"Oops! Can't I go! "Because I can't think of a place to spend the night in the forest other than going into a cave.

I followed him down the long, steep steps, and asked as I went, "There's one more thing I don't understand." ”

"Say it."

He walked so fast that I had to hold on to his arm to prevent myself from losing it, "Since Coca is very familiar with this place and basically knows a certain amount of knowledge about the entire mountain forest, then she has lived here for hundreds of years, and she should have discovered that tomb a long time ago, why did she bother to ask us for those maps?" ”

After Leng Mu's explanation, I realized that there was not only one ancient tomb here, and it was quite hidden, and if there was no map, even if I climbed the entire mountain forest, I might not be able to find the ancient tomb she was going to enter.

Before I knew it, we had reached the mouth of the cave and walked through the mouth of the skull, and I felt depressed when I thought about it, "Why don't we go in through our left eye?" ”

He looked into the skeleton's left eye for a moment, then nodded and flew in with me.

I bet that no one has been in this cave for decades, and the air inside is so cold that there are so many insects here, and if there is a light source, it may attract some poisonous insects, so I cautiously asked, "Can I light a candle?" ”

"Yes."

Hearing this, I put my backpack down, turned on the flashlight and handed it to him, "Help me shine it, I'll look for a candle." ”

When he took this photo, my body that had just squatted down immediately bounced up, God, there are so many dried corpses here?!

He looked surprised, I also calmed down, with him, I did feel a lot more at ease, quickly took out three candles from the backpack, lit them in the three corners, the cave suddenly lit up, I looked at the cold wood standing on the side, "There are dry corpses everywhere here, do you lie down?" ”

After listening to my words, he saw through my thoughts at a glance, "If you are afraid, you can come here." ”

My face turned red at the moment, "Who is scared!" I just don't feel comfortable looking at it! ”

He didn't answer my words, but sprinkled some insect repellent powder around, and I wondered, "Why, the temperature in the cave is so low, can there be bugs?" ”

He pointed to the dried corpses on the ground, "Look. ”

Hearing this, I glanced at the dried corpse nearby, and sure enough, in the mouth and eyes of the corpse, crawling with small transparent insects, if you don't look carefully, you really can't find it, I feel nauseous, if it weren't for the hunger on the chest and back, it is estimated that I would have vomited it out by now, "What, so disgusting!" ”

"Corpse worms." He said lightly.

I ducked behind him with a look of disgust, "Will you crawl over and eat us?" ”

Leng Mu shook his head and explained, "It will only rely on rotting corpses. ”

"That's good." However, he sprinkled so much insect repellent powder to relieve the diaphragm in my heart, and I had a little more affection for cold wood in my heart, and it seems that he is not just a piece of wood, sometimes he is quite careful.

Seeing that I kept staring at him, he asked coldly, "Why are you staring at me and smirking?" ”

I suppressed my smile at the time, it was really his words that seriously damaged my self-esteem, "Silly smirk?! You...... You can't speak! ”

He didn't have the heart to argue with me, let alone talk nonsense with me, and pointed to the location inside the insect repellent powder, "You can rest now." ”

"That'...... What about you. Seeing his wooden face, I reminded, "You don't plan to lend me your shoulder for a while?" ”

Hearing my words, he walked beside me with a helpless face.

Gu Xin, Gu Xin, don't blame me for robbing a man with you, I have no choice but to do it, of course, I will never share a man with you, since he is destined to belong to you, I Ling Weiwei will definitely not get involved as a concubine, temporarily borrow your fiancΓ©'s shoulder for a few days to enjoy it, don't blame me, who made your fiancΓ© so powerful, and always gives me an inexplicable sense of security, after going down the mountain, I swear that I will definitely stay away from him, and I will never hinder you from waiting for a marriage that has not been married for a thousand years.

If a man doesn't want to get married alone, of course he will try his best to find a reason to shirk it, she is also enough to carry it, and after waiting for Leng Mu for hundreds of years, people have never thought of marrying her, is it a problem of her charm? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but gloat and wanted to snicker, the atmosphere in the cave was depressing enough, I must have been scared and shivered if I were normal, seeing that I was so abnormal anyway, he asked puzzledly: "What are you thinking?" ”

Suddenly I felt that my heart was also quite bad sometimes, so I couldn't hold back a smile and shook my head, "It's nothing, just think about it." ”

Seeing that he has become more and more down-to-earth recently, I wiped my hands with a wet tissue, took out the bread in my backpack, took a bite and asked, "Cold wood, I found that you have started talking recently!" ”

He took a sip of water and stared at me suspiciously, as if to say, I haven't spoken before?

So I explained, "You're starting to get grounded!" It's more than ten words, don't be discouraged, at least you're willing to accept my nonsense! Sometimes, you can talk to me two or three times in a row! ”

Listening to my nonsense, he stared at me with black lines on his face, and simply closed his eyes.

Just as I glanced back at the cave, I hurriedly poked his arm, "Hey! Look outside, how come there are so many red lanterns? ”

Hearing this, he opened his eyes and explained, "That's the eye of a man-eating snake. ”

The bread in my mouth hadn't been swallowed yet, and I choked on it and almost threw it out, "Then you still let me light candles, they are so close to the cave, will they climb in the middle of the night?" ”

Seeing that I was scared enough, he had to respond patiently to my question, "I have sprinkled realgar outside the cave." ”

I really haven't seen what the man-eating snake looks like, but now I only know that its eyes look like red lanterns and glow, "Is this snake poisonous?" ”

"Hmm."

It also has it in the poisonous snake that Yu Huang ate, right? (To be continued.) )
