325 Fallen Street Signs

The scene of Bu Ye's death was very bloody, and he was torn in half by that terrible ghost, and I turned my head and couldn't bear to look at it again. This old immortal is finally dead today, and I feel very relieved in my heart, a villain like him who is cunning and cunning and falls into a hole should have died a long time ago! What a hundred and twenty years in vain!

But the ghost bandits were still behind him, and even the leader had come out. I didn't dare to stop any longer, and continued to run desperately into the darkness ahead, panicking. But fortunately, the terrain around here is all small bridges connected to isolated islands, and isolated islands are set up with small bridges, and there are no other forks, as long as you keep running in the direction of the next bridge. And the fluorescent stone embedded in the end of each small bridge is the light that guides me to escape.

I ran for almost an hour, until I was exhausted and had to stop, and I collapsed on the bank of the river, gasping for air.

I don't know when there has been no movement of the ghost bandits' pursuit at all, maybe after they got a large amount of Yin Yuan on Bu Ye's body, they felt that this ambush could be regarded as a perfect ending, and there was no need to pay attention to a few "little shrimps" who ran away like me.

Although my eyes could not see behind me in the darkness of the earth, the resentment of the terrible ghost was so strong that I could definitely feel it as soon as it got closer. So, I should be safe for the time being.

After the extreme fatigue and fright, I could no longer resist the drowsiness that came up like a tide, and I lay on the ground and did not want to get up, but fell into a deep sleep.

……

When I woke up again, I didn't know how long I had been asleep. Fortunately, the ghost bandits seem to have really given up the pursuit of me, a fish that slipped through the net, and I, a big living person, were still able to lie in place, and my little life was finally picked up. However, after a long period of intense running, my whole body was extremely sore, especially my legs and feet felt as if they were not my own.

I don't know when the tide began to rise in the river around me. Yes, underground rivers also have high and low tides, as the water flows down from the surface and is also affected by changes in the amount of water upstream. However, the law of high and low tide here is uncertain, unlike the rivers and rivers in the yang world, which can be judged according to the waxing and waning of the moon. And I didn't care to turn over in my sleep, and one foot was already soaked in the water.

I took my foot back, intending to wring out my trouser leg, but I didn't want to have something hanging on my foot. I pulled it over and reached out to touch it, as if it was a piece of clothing, could it be that the clothes in the baggage of the upstream caravan fell into the water and floated down the current?

I hesitated, but decided to pull out two fluorescent stones from my arms. This is a must-have when going out and about darts, and can be used as a substitute for ghost fire and open flame to illuminate when necessary, although the brightness is slightly insufficient, but fortunately, it can be long-lasting, and it is easy to hide at any time.

I used fluorescent stone to shine on the dress under my feet, and when I turned it around, I couldn't find the neckline and sleeves, not so much pants, but like a black cloth pocket. And the material used for this thing feels different from ordinary fabric, it is very soft, and if it is not soaked in water, it is estimated that it is also very light and thin. What is this pocket for?

I reached in again and felt the inside of the cloth pocket, but there was nothing in it, but I felt a few more cracks, not the kind that had been scratched, but deliberately sewn like this, and this was definitely not a pocket for stuff.

"What the hell is this?" I scratched my head, and couldn't think of any cloth objects in the caravan that were of this shape.

Could it be......

That's right! This is the black cloth that Bu Ye used to hide himself just now!

It turns out that this cloth pocket-like thing is also a pubic weapon, which can be used to cover one's body to block the scattering of light in the dark, and at the same time can also contain the breath of the person hiding inside, which is indeed a very good concealment "magic weapon". If it weren't for the Yin Yuan that accidentally fell out of Buye's body, I wouldn't have been able to find him at that time.

Well, this old immortal finally did a "good deed". Since this black cloth cover has been hanging on my feet all the way down the river, it means that it has decided that I will be its next "master", so accept it unceremoniously!

I wrung out the black cloth cover, laid it on a large stone to dry, and then began to count the materials on my body, leaving the useful ones behind, and throwing away the useless ones to reduce the weight.

Fortunately, most of my valuables are in my backpack, and I carry self-defense weapons such as shields and chopsticks. After the inventory, it was found that in this catastrophe, I only lost some change of clothes and personal items on the back of the big snail, and the other was the short knife that was taken away and the damaged helmet and armor, and the loss was not large.

In addition, the few minor injuries on my body were all fine, all of them had stopped bleeding, and they were not injured in the vital parts. However, after the fierce fighting and the long frenzied escape, my physical exertion was very high, and I had to rest for a little more to eat before I could move on.

Fortunately, the caravan distributed a small portion of dry food to everyone, enough for me to barely last three or five days. I ate some dry blue beans in the cold water of the river. Blue beans still have to be cooked soft to be delicious, but the dried ones are easy to preserve and provide a lot of calories, making them a must-have dry food for all caravans.

According to my estimates, this place is only about three and a half days away from Zuoqiu City. Although the dry food is enough, I am left alone now, and I don't know the way, what should I do?

There was no longer a small bridge inlaid with fluorescent stones, so I tried to throw a few ghost fires around to explore the terrain, and found that there were caves of different sizes in front and back, which direction should I go?

However, I followed the caravan for two years, and at least my sense of direction was cultivated. I vaguely remember that I should have to go downstream along this underground river, for fear that it would branch off halfway, and then I was afraid that I would have to make a multiple-choice question.

I rested for another two hours, then packed up my things and set off. Along the way, in order to avoid encountering something that shouldn't be touched, I didn't even dare to light up a ghost fire, so I only held the two fluorescent stones in my hand to find my way. As soon as something unusual happens, I will immediately hide the fluorescent stone in my arms, and then take out the black cloth cover that has been dried and put it on myself, so that I can completely hide in the endless darkness of the underground environment.

After walking trembling for a long time, my fears arose: the underground river branched off at a fork in the road, and it was divided into three parts, each leading to three different caves.

I searched around the neighborhood and found a street sign by the river with three signs on it:

Zuoqiu City →

Stone Forest Village →

Dead Ze →

There are only three signs at the fork in the road, and the remaining direction generally means some kind of impassable Jedi, maybe a dead end, maybe an abyss, and maybe some kind of undiscovered terrible danger.

I tried to put the sign back up, but it was hit when it fell, and it was so badly deformed that it could no longer be accurately restored. This sign may have been damaged by the gang of ghost bandits I met before. These damn guys!

There are four different directions, in fact, there is only one safe direction I can choose: Zuoqiu City. The other three are all dangerous, Shilinzhai is the direction that has just fled, there are ghost bandits there; There are terrible monsters in the dead Ze, and entering it alone is basically looking for death; And there is also an unknown danger in the unknown direction, and there is no way to go.

A 1 in 4 chance of being correct! That's too low, isn't it?

When I got lost, I had to stop for a while, planning to take a break, drink some water, and eat something, and then slowly think of a way. I desperately recalled in my mind the right choice I made when Bu Ye took us through here more than half a month ago, but the interval was too long, and it was the first time I took this business route, and I couldn't remember it!

Alas, it's nerve-wracking!

In the end, I could only rule out the two directions to Shilinzhai and the unknown path. First, because I had just come from the direction of Shilinzhai, it was impossible for me to go back again; The second is that the water level in the cave in one of the directions is relatively high, which is not suitable for caravans at all.

Of course, the water level of the underground river has just risen, and it cannot be ruled out that the trade road in that cave has been flooded. But when there are too many options, I can only rule out this seemingly unlikely option first.

The remaining two directions look similar, if my guess is correct, one side is the road back to Zuoqiu City, and the other is the road to Death Ze. Life or death, the choice is at this moment!

Just when I was ruthless, I found a more pleasing direction and planned to move on, but suddenly I saw a rather large thing floating in the river. Pay attention, it's actually a person!

Could it be one of my teammates who has been murdered by the Devil? Alas, what a pity!

Since I saw the body of my teammate, I couldn't ignore it, so I picked up the sign as a hook, hooked the body to the shore and pulled it up. Who could this be?

I held up the fluorescent stone to look at the corpse. Due to the long time of soaking in the water, the skin of the deceased's face has become miserable and pale, and there are scars all over the body, especially on the face, from the nose to the left jaw, and a shocking cut by a sharp object, I really can't recognize who this is for a while?

In the end, it was the one thing he was holding in his hand that revealed the answer: a judge's pen!

It's bird meat!

"Alas!" I couldn't help but shake my head and sigh.

Torimeat is almost the best teammate I have on the team. Although his mouth is a little cheaper, he is still very serious in his work, and he is deeply trusted by Bu Ye, and he is a panacea. It's a pity that even he died, and it is estimated that I am the only one left in the entire caravan!
