Chapter 061: The Secret Path in the Midst of Trouble
I don't know how much time has passed.
Anyway, when Yu Changsheng woke up, the time must have exceeded three hours.
He and Jin Kai woke up at the same time, awakened by some kind of sound.
At this time, the elemental land around them had turned into bushes, and Jin Kai stood up sleepily and looked around vigilantly.
Yu Changsheng's state was similar to him, because he also heard the noise in the dense forest.
"It's not like the sound of a monster." Jin Kai said.
"Well, that sounds like a lot of people are coming." Yu Changsheng said.
"The sound was far away, as if it was coming from the periphery." Jin Kai said.
"Hmm." Yu Changsheng replied and continued to look into the depths of the dense forest.
There was nothing to be seen through the black fog, only the occasional light of the stars.
"How's your recovery?" Jin Kai asked.
"It's not bad, it shouldn't take long for people from outside to find here, what are you going to do?" Yu Changsheng asked.
"What else can I do? Of course, it's from here. Jin Kai said.
"Okay, then I'll take a look at the situation first." Yu Changsheng said, taking out the spell fan.
The spell fan waved, and the demon tomb spell mark on the fan flickered with black light, only to see a yin wind coming from the fan, and then this yin wind began to shuttle in the dead square, leaving a dark black hole where it passed.
Later, the pits were opened by several human hands, and inside were tomb guards and ghouls.
Jin Kai couldn't help but be stunned and said in surprise:
"How can you control these guys?"
"Maybe it's because they suddenly got their heads up and want to be a good boss. I'll let them take a look outside. ”
Yu Changsheng waved the set spell fan, and these tomb guards immediately came over obediently, neatly, and said in unison:
"Master, please command."
"Go and help me see what's going on outside."
"Yes."
The grave guards answered in a neat voice, and then entered the dense forest.
"There seems to be a battle outside, but they didn't come here, which means that the people outside should also know that this is the sealing enchantment, and they don't dare to come here rashly." Yu Changsheng guessed.
"Then why did they come to such a place where birds don't?" Jin Kai asked.
"I don't know, let's wait and see." Yu Changsheng said.
So, more than a dozen grave guards all went to investigate the situation, and the two of them who stayed behind continued to recuperate in the Elemental Land.
The perimeter of the Dead Square was once again covered in a thick black fog, and if outsiders strayed in, the fog would affect them first.
In such a quiet situation, the two of them will also quickly detect the arrival of the enemy and act as soon as possible.
As the minutes ticked by, the sound of the battle outside faded away, and only a scream could be heard from time to time, but it seemed to come from far away.
However, none of the grave guards who went to investigate the situation returned.
For nearly five hours, the sound of battle outside was getting farther and farther away, and although they couldn't see the sky outside, as the surroundings became darker, the two should have guessed that it was already night.
But the grave ghouls still haven't returned.
"Let's go, I'm afraid these grave guards have all been killed." Jin Kai said.
Yu Changsheng frowned, and he also knew that the current situation was the same as what Jin Kai said, and it might be more dangerous if he continued to wait.
"Well, it's okay, now is the time for the monster to be infested, we can take advantage of the chaos to escape."
So, Jin Kai used the wooden beads to absorb the power of the elemental land below them, and got up to leave.
The two of them cleared the black fog and stepped out of the dead square.
But as soon as they left the square, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them, only to see that the forest in the distance had already burned, and the raging flames went straight into the sky, the flames soared into the sky, black smoke billowed out, and from time to time there were arcs of fire passing through the air, like a red dragon jumping out of magma.
However, this flame seemed to be on the periphery of the Nirvana Demon Forest, and the part of the area where they were located was not affected.
"It looks like this battle is really fierce." Jin Kai said.
"Maybe this fire is aimed at you and me." Yu Changsheng smiled bitterly, "It seems that we can only wait for the fire to go out again!" It's not hard to find some food here. ”
"No, this is our chance to escape, I know a way." Jin Kai swore by it.
"Oh? Are you sure? Yu Changsheng asked.
"Well, don't worry, you can get out there." Jin Kai said.
So, the two of them passed through the depths of the dense forest and entered the vicinity of the sea of fire, Jin Kai set off south along the river that separated the outer and inner parts of the Nirvana Demon Forest, and the two walked for five kilometers until they found a cave, and through the cave, they entered a canyon.
Yu Changsheng didn't expect that there would be such a place here, with a burning dense forest on one side of the canyon and an unattainable peak on the other, completely isolating the flames, it was like a natural escape route.
After the two entered the canyon, they took a short rest, ate some wild beasts hunted on the road, and prepared to continue on the road.
But at this time, Yu Changsheng suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a short thing not far away that staggered towards them, panting, and seemed to be shouting Yu Changsheng's name in his mouth.
Yu Changsheng thought that he was full of strength now, and he didn't even pull out the water knife, so he stood up and looked at the comer.
When this little thing walked in, Yu Changsheng found out that this guy turned out to be a tomb guard ghoul who was already covered in scars, and because the tomb guard ghoul was too far away from the tomb, its strength seemed to be greatly weakened, and its body became thinner, and it seemed to be a little transparent.
When it saw Yu Changsheng, it immediately panted and said:
"Lord...... Master...... As soon as we entered the outer forest, the fire ignited, and the other ghouls should have died......"
"Well, what's going on out there, do you know who's fighting?" Yu Changsheng asked.
"I eavesdropped on a group of people, they should have revealed the news from the Tongbei Pavilion that the whereabouts of the 'Five-Colored Flower Demon' Shadow Jade Spirit were found in the Nirvana Demon Forest, and this guy also snatched a secret treasure from the Tongbei Pavilion, and the Tongbei Pavilion sent some additional masters to arrest her, as soon as the news came out, now many bounty hunters have poured into the Nirvana Demon Forest to find her, and even the Demon Guards of the Qiu Chi Kingdom have also been dispatched." The grave guard ghoul panted.
Yu Changsheng listened quietly, thought for a while, and said:
"What are those people you seeing?"
"They're a bunch of bounty hunters, and they're supposed to be here for that Shadow Jade Spirit." Said the grave ghoul.
Yu Changsheng glanced at Jin Kai and said with a smile:
"Hehe, it seems that the two of us seem to have robbed other people's business."
"Huh? Don't mention this stubble when you see people, I don't know what secret treasure that thief girl stole anyway, I didn't kill her. Jin Kai hurriedly said.
"Forget it, that's fine, even if the shadow jade spirit is still alive, it shouldn't have the heart to deal with us." Yu Changsheng said, his gaze shifted to this tomb guard ghoul again, and asked:
"Since you're from this road, is it safe?"
The tomb guard ghoul nodded hurriedly, and said in shock:
"Safe, safe...... In the whole forest, I'm afraid only this is the safest, master, you can definitely get out safely when you walk from here! Just ......"
"Just what?" Yu Changsheng asked.
"It's just that there is an old man on this road, crying ...... non-stop"
"Crying?" Yu Changsheng was inexplicable, and turned his head to look at Jin Kai.
Jin Kai didn't speak, and the grave guard continued:
"That's right, I don't know who he is, just in the open field not far ahead, crying non-stop...... But it doesn't matter, he should be dead! ”
