Chapter 99: Tracking the Monster

Leaving the courtyard of the rough house, Zhou Xiaolong and Bai Zimo both opened their yin and yang eyes and chased in the direction where the black monster had fled.

After walking for a long time, they didn't find any traces, but the road in front of them became more and more difficult to walk.

It seemed to be an old forest, surrounded by trees, and the branches of the trees grew together in a net, which seemed to obscure the sky, and the moonlight could not penetrate at all, making it dim and unusually dark underneath.

If Zhou Xiaolong didn't have a flashlight in his hand, I'm afraid he would only be able to walk in the dark, and even if he had a flashlight, their speed would have to be reduced.

Because the ground under your feet also began to become uneven, overgrown with weeds, potholes, and a lot of thorny vines, when you step on your legs, they will be entangled with your ankles, making it difficult to walk.

"That's not right!!" The fat bird Bai Zimo suddenly said.

"Uncle Shi, did you find anything?!" Zhou Xiaolong immediately stopped.

"No, no!!" Bai Zimo still said the same sentence, looking confused.

"What's wrong?!"

"I mean, this forest doesn't feel right," Bai Zimo explained, "I flew all the way here just now, I don't seem to see this forest, it's very strange, this forest is too weird!" ”

"It's a little weird indeed!"

"Xiaolong, you say, could it be that we are hallucinating?!"

Bai Zimo is not unreasonable, this forest is indeed very weird.

If this is a deep mountain and old forest, it may be easier to appear in such a place, but this is a rural area, there are hundreds of households in a village, and there is arable land all around, how can there be such a strange forest?

"Xiaolong, we can't continue to go, this place, I think, is a deliberate trick by the monster, let's go back!"

Before Bai Zimo's words fell, he was in front of him, and suddenly, a beam of lights and a figure appeared.

The height of the figure is about the same as that of ordinary people, and that beam of light seems to be a flashlight.

"Uncle Shi, look, there seems to be someone in front?!"

"Well, I saw it too, Xiaolong, you stand still and don't move, let the deity fly over and take a look, wait for my news, you must not go forward!"

"Okay, uncle."

Bai Zimo flapped his little wings and flew up with great effort, flying in the direction of the figure.

After a while, Bai Zimo used the sound transmission technique to say: "Xiaolong, this person seems to be Xue Gang, I don't know what this guy is doing when he doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, is he sleepwalking?!" ”

As soon as he heard Bai Zimo mention Xue Gang, Zhou Xiaolong was very nervous, although Xue Gang had two hits, he was a retired special soldier, but when he encountered an evil thing, Xue Gang was able to fight for nothing.

In order to protect Xue Gang's safety, Zhou Xiaolong hurriedly ran towards the figure.

When I walked in, the person was really Xue Gang, but his consciousness was obviously not very clear, and his eyes were open, as if he was sleepwalking.

Zhou Xiaolong jumped in front of Xue Gang from behind, chanted a mantra in his mouth, and patted Xue Gang's head lightly, Xue Gang's whole body trembled, and he immediately regained consciousness.

"Ah, Captain Xiao Zhou, why did you come out too?!" Xue Gang didn't seem to be sleepwalking.

"Captain Xue, what are you doing here?!" Zhou Xiaolong asked nervously.

"I ...... I...... I ......"

Although Xue Gang recognized Zhou Xiaolong, he was still delirious, and he was slurring when he spoke.

For a long time, Xue just told Zhou Xiaolong that he was mainly worried that Zhou Xiaolong was keeping vigil in the rough room alone, and he was really not at ease, and he couldn't sleep at home, so he put on his clothes and turned on a flashlight to go to the rough room to see Zhou Xiaolong, and kept vigil with Zhou Xiaolong until dawn.

However, after Xue Gang came out, he found that the village he was familiar with suddenly became very unfamiliar, and he actually went around in circles in place and couldn't find the location of the rough house.

Fortunately, at this time, Zhou Xiaolong found Xue Gang and woke Xue Gang up, if he walked away for a night in such a daze, he didn't know where he would go?!

Xue Gang appeared at the scene, and the fat bird Bai Zimo was not convenient to show up, but flew to the branch.

Bai Zimo said to Zhou Xiaolong with a sound transmission technique: "Xiaolong, you ask that Xue Gang, what kind of place is this, and how far is it from their village?" ”

Zhou Xiaolong nodded, and asked Xue Gang, "Captain Xue, what kind of place is this, are you familiar with it?" ”

Xue Gang hurriedly shook his head and said, "Ah, I've never been here, really, this doesn't seem to be our village, where are we?!" ”

Bai Zimo had already heard Xue Gang's words, and he was shocked, and said to Zhou Xiaolong: "Oops, it seems that the deity is really right, this is not the real world, but the illusion created by the monster." ”

Zhou Xiaolong was very anxious, so he asked Bai Zimo, "What should I do then?!" ”

Xue Gang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked at Zhou Xiaolong, "Captain Xiao Zhou, are you ...... Who are you talking to?! ”

Zhou Xiaolong didn't have the heart to explain, only listened to Bai Zimo say again: "It's okay, all illusions are false, there must be a formation eye, as long as we find that array eye, even if we find the weakest link, we can break through from there......"

Zhou Xiaolong asked again: "But, where is the eye of the array?!" ”

Bai Zimo said: "Don't worry, let the deity condescend to check ......"

Xue Gang saw that Zhou Xiaolong was actually talking to himself and asking and answering, as if he was a nervous disorder, and he was even more scared in his heart, "Captain Xiao Zhou, what are you talking to yourself, don't scare me?!" ”

Before Zhou Xiaolong could explain to Xue Gang, Bai Zimo in the sky suddenly exclaimed, ", that array of eyes has been discovered by the deity, hurry up, go over and take a look, the direction of nine o'clock ......"

"What, what is the direction of nine o'clock, what does the direction of nine o'clock mean?!" Zhou Xiaolong didn't understand at all.

", Xiaolong, you are really an unearthed cultural relic, you don't understand anything!" Bai Zimo couldn't help but scold.

At this time, Xue Gang came over and explained: "The direction of nine o'clock is on your left, and this method of indicating the direction is mainly used by soldiers when they are fighting......

Zhou Xiaolong had never worn a watch, and he didn't know what direction it was at nine o'clock, but fortunately, with Xue Gang beside him, he finally ran to the left-hand side.

The two ran out of more than ten meters, and Zhou Xiaolong saw that there was a puddle of water on the ground, I don't know the depth, it looked like a well.

But strangely, black smoke was already rising from the surface of the water, and the smoke was swirling, as if it were water vapor.

As long as you open the yin and yang eyes, you can see that the smoke on the water surface is all demonic energy, and it is demonic energy!!

Zhou Xiaolong slowly walked to the water's edge, squatted down, and took a closer look.

Xue Gang has mortal eyes, no yin and yang eyes, maybe in his eyes, this is just some water.

"Captain Xiao Zhou, what do you think this water is for?!" Seeing Zhou Xiaolong's strange actions, Xue Gang couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Xiaolong didn't answer him, so Xue Gang also followed Zhou Xiaolong's example, stretching his neck to look into the water.

Suddenly, a black claw burst out of the water, grabbed Xue Gang's hair, and dragged it down desperately.

Xue Gang was completely defenseless, he didn't even scream, he fell into the water with a "plop", half of his body sank in, and he kicked his legs like a frog, and he was about to sink to the bottom and drown.

Oops, that's bad!!

Zhou Xiaolong's eyes were quick, he saw the position, grabbed the belt tied around Xue Gang's waist, took a breath, and dragged Xue Gang up.

Xue Gang was overly frightened, his expression was a little sluggish, and he trembled all over, and it took a long time to recover.

Zhou Xiaolong patted Xue Gang on the shoulder, "Captain Xue, are you okay?!" ”

Xue Gang asked with a trembling voice, "Captain Xiao Zhou...... That...... That...... What's in there!? ”
