Chapter 174: Lethe
"Why?"
"You're carrying too much. Bai Gu's voice echoed faintly in Yu Wen's mind, "Don't you understand? You're a chess piece." ”
Bai Gu's last sentence was said almost word by word, full of depression, and the last two words falling into Yu Wen's ears made Yu Wen's heart tremble slightly.
Really......
"What's wrong with you?"
"Brother......
Well?
Yu Wen lowered his head, slightly distracted, watching Xiao Yue holding his hand, raising his eyes, Mu Xue Suyi stood in front of him, looking at him, his eyes were always a little evasive.
Look around.
After a while, Yu Wen quietly put away his doubts, touched Xiaoyue's head and looked at everyone, and opened his mouth.
"I'm fine, let's keep walking. After that, Yu Wen didn't give the others a chance to continue talking, and continued to walk forward.
Xiao Yue was pulled by Yu Wen, Mu Xue followed, Mu Lan and Mu Xue side by side, and Nanfeng and Mu Wushuang were behind.
"Is he really okay?" Looking at Yu Wen's back, Nanfeng asked thoughtfully, looking at Mu Wushuang.
Mu Wushuang shook his head, said nothing, and patted Nanfeng's shoulder, but there was a faint emotion in his eyes, as if he had guessed something in advance.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Yu Wen raised his hand, signaled everyone to stop, turned around, and looked at everyone by the light of the night pearl.
"Brother Yu asked, what's wrong?" Mu Wushuang stepped forward and asked.
"There's a stream of water ahead. Yu Wen groaned.
"What's the fuss, what's going on?" Mu Lan said angrily. "Ignorance!" For Mu Lan, Yu Wen just sneered and spit out two words indifferently.
"You ......" As soon as Mu Lan exited, she was stopped by Mu Xue, so she could only swallow her words, turn her face to the side and sulk alone.
"Master Mu, what do you think?" Yu Wen didn't pay much attention to this little girl, and asked Mu Wushuang directly.
Mu Wushuang groaned, and Nanfeng also stepped forward, his face was a little solemn, and his voice was low: "This is not a good place in the first place, if it weren't for the deterrence of Brother Yuwen's weapons, maybe we would encounter something." ”
"Hmm!" Mu Wushuang also nodded, "There is the sound of water flowing right now, you must know that wherever there is water, there will be life, and the water in this place, I don't know what kind of water it is, if there is a living body, then I don't know what it is...... It's tricky. ”
Yu asked, nodding.
"Judging by the humidity of the surrounding air, the water flow ahead is likely to be a large river, and there is a chance that there are living organisms. ”
After a pause, Yu Wen looked at everyone's expressions.
Then he said, "It has cut us off, and I want to ask if you want to continue." ”
Yu Wen's voice was flat and calm, and everyone was silent. What kind of life form will you encounter? What kind of monster will it be?
After a long time, Yu Wen continued to speak, breaking the somewhat silent atmosphere, "Has it been decided?"
The crowd was silent.
"Go on!" In the end, Mu Wushuang opened his mouth, with some hesitation in his tone, "There is no way back now, whether we can get out of this place alive is unknown, and if we take a risk, maybe we will see the future." ”
Everyone was silent, Yu Wen was silent, nodded, pulled Xiao Yue behind him, and let her hold the Night Pearl, while he took the lead with a spear in his hand and slowly walked forward.
Yu Wen's body soul power was surging, the spear in his hand pointed obliquely at the dry earth, the overlord spear body was shining with golden light, and the tip of the spear was cold, revealing fierceness.
Behind him, Xiao Yue tiptoed to hold the Night Pearl in one hand, and pulled Yu Wen's sleeve with the other hand, her little face was pale and her expression was nervous. Then there were the two sisters of the Mu family who each had a cold sword, and finally Mu Wushuang with a dignified face and the south wind around him.
"Be careful, there are signs of life ahead. ”
The person who opened his mouth was Mu Wushuang.
Swish!
His speed was as fast as the wind, stopping in front of Yu Wen, and he was eager to try his cultivation from the Holy Realm in half a step, and his terrifying soul power was about to move.
With a vigilant look, his eyes narrowed slightly and he looked ahead, and his voice was hoarse: "Do you feel it?"
Mu Wushuang turned his back to everyone, but everyone knew that he was saying this to Yu Wen.
Yu Wen didn't say anything, but his eyebrows were lowered, and he listened to the wind, his cultivation was not as strong as Mu Wushuang, his perception was not so terrifying, and he didn't feel life.
But he could already hear the sound of the water.
Whoa—whoa, whoa!
The sound of the water gurgling and irregularly drilled into Yuwen's ears, the sound was very small, but he still heard Yuwen clearly.
"I don't feel any life. Yu Wen opened his eyes and said frankly, Mu Wushuang turned his head to look at him, a little stunned, and then suddenly.
Yes, after all, today's Yu Wen is just a small True Self Realm cultivator, where can his perception be compared to a powerhouse in the Holy Realm in half a step?
"But ......" Mu Wushuang raised his eyes, and after a pause, Yu Wen then spoke, "I heard the sound of water, discordant, chaotic and irregular, there is something in the water, it will move." ”
Yu Wen cherishes words like gold, his expression is calm, and his words are concise.
As soon as these words came out, everyone changed color.
Among the people present, Mu Lan was the most timid, and when she heard Yu's words, her little face immediately turned slightly white, and she unconsciously grabbed Mu Xue.
"Father...... Is it alive?" Mu Xue also frowned slightly, and asked softly.
Nanfeng also looked at Mu Wushuang.
"This ......" he was a little speechless, in fact, what he felt was a breath, a very strange breath, it was a living thing, it could move, but as for whether it was a living body, he was really not sure.
"Let's go!" At this moment, Yu Wen opened his mouth, holding a gun and pulling Xiao Yue with one hand, and walked forward decisively, "We have no way back." ”
What the?
When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked, and they all looked back at the way they came. Really...... But when I saw that the road I came from was gradually fainted, and the way back was shrouded in mist and ethereal.
Everyone's hearts were slightly sunk, their faces were very ugly, it seemed impossible to go back, and at the moment, they could only move forward.
Soon, Yu Wen and his party came to the place they feared.
As they took the last step, the heavens and the earth suddenly changed, and the stars shifted, and the surroundings were no longer bleak, but like the middle of the night, but a little dim, and their heads were very open, as if they could see the sky, but the sky was covered with rolling inky clouds, and it was oppressive, and nothing could be seen.
Thundered
A great river seemed to appear out of thin air, stopping in front of them, like a long dragon lying horizontally, full of coercion.
The river is very long and endless, and you can't see the source or the direction of the flow down. The river is rolling, rolling waves, and flowers are blooming.
Between the rolling waves, everyone could see white bones tumbling out, and corpses drifting and hiding among the waves.
"Brother......" Xiao Yue hid behind Yu Wen, there were too many dead people in the river, this scene was a little frightening for Xiao Yue, who was not deeply involved in the world.
Yu Wen touched Xiaoyue's head dotingly, smiled far-fetchedly, comforted her, and then looked at Dahe with a solemn face.
He wondered how vast this abyss was, and it felt boundless, like an underground world that could never be reached.
And also......
Yu Wen looked at the big river in front of him, his eyes were long, why did such a big river appear here? It's so weird.
"Brother Yuwen......" At this time, Mu Wushuang spoke, his voice trembling slightly. "Huh?" Yu asked and looked back at Mu Wushuang.
Mu Wushuang didn't look at him, but looked at the distance on the left, his face pale. Yu Wen's heart trembled and he wondered at the same time, what could make the powerhouses of the half-step Saint Realm tremble.
Looking at Mu Wushuang's line of sight, his gaze was everywhere.
Hiss –
Even Yu Wen couldn't help but gasp, his heart trembled, and a lifeless gray stone tablet broke into Yu Wen's sight.
Of course, what made Yuwen and Mu Wushuang's hearts tremble was not the stone stele, but the words on the stele, two ancient blood-colored characters, iron painting silver hooks, exuding depression and the breath of death.
Lethe!
"Lethe ......" Nanfeng screamed directly when he saw the stone tablet, and then his face was full of incredulity, "How is it possible, where have we come." ”
"Ah, we won't be dead already, this is hell?" Mu Lan also shouted, looking flustered, "I don't want to die yet...... Woo......"
If you want to say that she is present, if you want to say who has the most calm expression, then only Mu Xue is left, but at this moment, she is also frowning and thinking.
"What's wrong, what are you thinking?" Seeing this, Yu Wen asked.
"No, I was thinking, Lethe River is a great river flowing in hell in ancient mythology, but when people die, there is nothing, and it is unknown whether hell exists or not. ”
Mu Xue looked up at Yu and asked, guessing, "If this Lethe River is really the mythical river, are we in hell now?"
Yu Wen shook his head, he didn't know how to explain Mu Xue's question, but there was one thing, that is, he didn't believe in any hell or anything like that.
The Lethe River in ancient mythology may just be a strange river that has been mythologized, not to mention that the one in front of you is not necessarily the legendary Lethe River, maybe it is just the same name.
Yu Wen also said his thoughts, so that everyone can feel a little at ease, don't think about it for the time being, after all, the place they are in now is special, whether they can get out alive is a question, the more this time, the more they must stay calm and not panic.
Next, Yu Wen took the lead, spear in hand, and the group slowly approached the lifeless gray stone tablet on guard.
Getting closer.
I don't know how long, Yuwen finally stopped, and he didn't dare to move on.
"Brother Yu, what's wrong?" Nanfeng walked up and asked suspiciously.
"Not true. Yu Wen responded with two words, but he didn't say much, but his brows were deeply locked, and between his eyebrows was a haze that was so thick that the spring breeze could not blow away.
"What's wrong?" Nanfeng immediately became vigilant at the slightest doubt about the uselessness of Yu's words, and looked around, his breathing was a little cramped.
Yu Wen looked ahead and said in a deep voice: "We have been moving forward, getting closer and closer, and the stone monument is getting bigger and bigger, but there is always a sense of being out of reach, I suspect, it may not be in the same space......"
In fact, Yu Wen had another sentence that he did not say, that is, the closer he got to the stone tablet, the more uneasy he became, a kind of excitement from the soul, as if there was not a stone tablet in front of him, but a tombstone.
And it's also his tombstone.
