Chapter 436: Finally Got Them Waiting
The woman next to her looked incredulous, and looked at the bottom of the cliff in a daze, "Are you sure that the ghost doctor can really cure my disease?" ”
She didn't want to die here because of the cure.
Although the woman is nearly middle-aged, her body is like an old woman, her body leans forward slightly, she is hunched over, and her face is yellow and thin.
That posture...... It's like you're carrying something heavy.
Feeling that she seemed to be retreating, the man simply stepped forward to take her hand and said hurriedly, "It's all here, wouldn't it be sorry that we came here if you don't go in and see!" What's more, he had already inquired about it, there was a doctor in the ghost city of Xudu, who healed people during the day and ghosts at night, and his medical skills were superb.
It's just that there are very few people who know how to get to Xudu, so he finally found this place after making many inquiries.
When he found out that this was an abyss, Zeng also planned to leave, but because the woman's condition was getting worse day by day, he had to wait here with the mentality of giving it a try, which was equivalent to a person who went to the capital of Xudu, so that he could know what the mystery was on the edge of this cliff.
Sure enough, the hard work paid off, and after eating wild fruits and vegetables for half a month, they finally made them wait......
"But ......"
The woman was still a little hesitant, but she couldn't stand the man's dragging, so she dragged her directly to the edge of the cliff, and jumped out in the direction where they disappeared.
……
The dark red stone pavement stretched for miles, and the sky was still clear, but now it was extremely dark.
There are oil lamps on the side of the road at intervals, but ...... The flickering candle flame oozed a faint white light.
"It's terrible here, Xianggong, let's go back-" With some weeping, the woman retreated again, her eyes trembling across the pitch-black surroundings, and she could only faintly see the rolling mountains, and the visibility was very low.
At this moment, a long and dense cry came over and over again:
"Mother, mother, mother......"
The voice seemed to be close at hand and far away in the sky, ethereal and terrifying......
"Hee-hee...... Mother, mother, mother......"
With the laughter of children, the man was so frightened that his legs were weak, but he couldn't find any "person" at a glance.
The big rough hands hugged the trembling woman tightly, and pretended to be calm and ran with her head buried in it, "Don't be afraid, we're not afraid, we can't hear anything...... Can not see...... Can't hear ......"
From time to time, the sound of girls' laughter sounded in my ears, and it sounded creepy.
He kept comforting himself, repeating the phrase "I can't hear it...... I couldn't hear ......], and my feet didn't stop for a moment, pulling his wife and running forward.
I don't know how long they ran, until the ethereal girl's voice no longer sounded in their ears, and the two gradually stopped.
Gasping for breath against the stone pillars on the side of the road!
They had been mentally prepared long before they came to Xudu, and it was inevitable to meet these, but they didn't expect that when things really happened, they were not as strong as they imagined.
Although the man looks calm on the surface, in fact, the fear in his heart is no less than that of a woman, just the beads of sweat on his forehead and the frightened eyes can show that he is afraid.
However, just as they got up and walked two steps, they heard someone singing, and the immature children's voice was soft and glutinous:
"Big watermelon, round and round, red and black in it, cold and sweet in the mouth, one for the father, one for the mother, one for the ......"
