Chapter 8: Bloody Footprints
The cry was so close, just outside the tent!
I was really startled, and my hairs stood on end.
I have a psychological shadow for ghosts, and that thing is not something ordinary people can deal with.
Now crying around the camp in the middle of the night, can it not be scary?
I stared at the outside of the tent, only to hear the cry get closer and closer, as if I would enter the tent at any moment, but there was no figure outside the tent, and the shadows reflected in the tent were of trees.
"What sound?" Le Xien woke up at this time, and she was close to the door of the tent, and her scalp exploded.
"Shh I sat up and made a silent gesture.
Le Xien hurriedly covered her mouth, and next to her, Kemeng also woke up, listening to the cry in disbelief.
The cry was very sad and sad, I couldn't tell what kind of creature it was, it was a bit like a human, but it was like a night owl.
"Who!" Suddenly, there was a loud shout outside, but a monk came out of the tent to check, and then screamed, and there was no movement.
"What's going on?" The sisters were all awakened in fright, and the cries outside the tent became more and more intense, as if there were strange creatures everywhere.
"Don't panic, stay calm." I reminded that the senior sisters were all squeezing towards me, and Le Xien squeezed over, pressing people with the ball.
Kemeng was very dragged, not seeking my protection, he wrapped himself in a quilt and stared at the door, cold sweat flowing.
Outside, screams rang out from time to time, but some monks went out to check, and then died violently on the spot, and there was no movement after the screams.
In this way, no one dares to go out to check, everyone is not stupid, and they will die if they know that they will show their heads.
In such a panic, the night passed very slowly.
But at dawn, the crying disappeared.
My heart was relieved, and the senior sisters were all drenched in sweat, pitiful, tired and afraid.
I'm completely hugging left and right now, and I'm going to be caught to death by my senior sisters.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Let go of me, the monster is gone." ”
"Li Qing, what is that? It's scared to death. Le Xien exhaled, but it didn't press my arm, and I immediately felt like I had lost ten pounds of big watermelon.
"It should be a jealous ghost, there is a sound and invisible, and you can't see it." I don't know the bottom either, but I guess it's some kind of taboo.
At this moment there was a noise outside, and some of the bold monks had gone out, and nothing had happened.
We also went out to have a look, and we couldn't help but be surprised.
Because the entrance of the whole canyon, as far as the eye can see, is full of dense footprints, these footprints are blood-red, the size is about the same as human feet, even there are footprints at the door of our tent, not deep, but very clear, to see human hair.
Everyone was shocked, and in every tent, the monks were a little flustered.
My sisters were even more frightened and wanted to hug me again.
I managed to push them away, then crouched down and looked at the bloody footprints, smelling a faint smell of decay.
Apparently, some kind of decaying humanoid creature left these footprints.
Judging by the density of the footprints, I am afraid that the number of such creatures is extremely impressive.
"Oh my God, it's already rotten, how long has it been dead?" Not far away, a monk of the sect shouted, but in front of their tent was a highly decomposed corpse, as if it had been dead for half a month, and the stench was strong.
There are dozens of such corpses, all of them monks who went out last night to investigate the crying voices.
They died as soon as they appeared, and in just a few hours they had been reduced to rotting corpses.
"Don't panic, it's just that the ghosts who are still breathing are coming to attack us. Pack your things and get ready to go! The people of the Cataclysm Sect shouted, and they began to be the leader.
Wu Shengzi also observed the footprints from a distance, and then sneered: "Pretending to be a ghost, what is there to be afraid of a jealous ghost who is about to die?" Aren't they just footprints? ”
Hearing him say this, everyone's panic was alleviated a little.
Of course, there are also old men who retort: "Wu Shengzi, don't be careless." The old man has lived for ninety years, and he has been in the ghost cemetery three or four times, but it is the first time he has seen a ghost come out to attack people. The jealous ghosts here are supposed to wait quietly for death, how can they come to kill? ”
"You know what? Every taboo is different, maybe this time the taboo is dying? Wu Shengzi said unhappily, and he couldn't allow others to refute him.
The old man had to shut up, he couldn't afford to offend the Natural Calamity Sect.
Wu Shengzi was satisfied, and waved his hand: "The sun is out, let's enter the ghost cemetery!" ”
"Good!" Everyone is still looking forward to it, after all, the ghost graveyard is a treasure place, and there is a chance to break through if you enter it. There are so many masters at the peak of the sixfold here, and they are looking forward to breaking through the sevenfold this time and entering the ranks of Tianjiao.
Our Kasumiyama faction also packed up our things and set off.
Le Xien led the team, and she respectfully followed Wu Zong.
Wu Zong has not been silent, but when Wu Zong set off, many sects consciously followed, and men and women respected Mulan.
Kemeng's guy is even more fascinated, and often looks at Mulan in front of him, as if he is looking at the senior sister he has a crush on.
I watched my feet and found bloody footprints stretching all the way to the Taboo Graveyard.
The thousand-meter-long canyon is full of bloody footprints, densely packed, as if countless living people have run.
If you look down from the sky, in this narrow canyon, the bloody footprints are like a Yellow Spring Road, and we are stepping on the Yellow Spring Road!
This does not bode well.
But I've come all the time, and I can't go home.
At the forefront, the Natural Disaster Sect took the lead, and had already reached the end of the canyon, where the double mountains were sandwiched, and the pass was about 100 meters wide.
There is nothing out of the ordinary.
"Crossing the pass is the graveyard of the ghosts, why is this cemetery no different from other places?" Many of the monks were hotly discussed, expectant and nervous.
Some people who came over said: "The ghost cemetery is like this, only when you go in can you notice the changes, it seems to be vibrant, but in fact it is silent and very depressing, and people are easy to collapse after staying for a long time." ”
That sounds pretty evil.
As I listened to the discussions, I observed the bloody footprints, which stretched over the pass and disappeared abruptly, as if they had gone to another time and space.
This is the most evil sect, obviously from a spatial point of view, the canyon and the 100,000 mountains are connected together, but why did the bloody footprints suddenly "break"?
Could it be that the monster took off after crossing the pass?
Of course, the most likely thing is that the taboo graveyard we see is not a real taboo graveyard, and there are two spaces outside the pass.
It's like a ghost.
Many people noticed the disappearance of the footprints, and at the front, Wu Shengzi turned his head and said: "Those who have entered the graveyard of taboos will lead the way, if you find a dead taboo, I will share the jealousy with you equally!" ”
Wu Shengzi was very cautious, he had obviously been advised by the ancestor of the faction.
Immediately, some experienced masters stepped forward and walked with the Natural Calamity Sect as the guides.
Soon, the Cataclysmic Sect crossed the pass, and when they looked back at us, the two sides were still in the same space, and nothing happened.
"Damn, a few bloody footprints make people nervous, what are you afraid of? Rush! The monks were relieved and hurriedly followed, for fear of falling behind.
My senior sisters also urged: "Senior brother, rush to the charge, don't let the Natural Calamity Sect rob all the jealousy!" ”
I'm not in a hurry to rush and take a look at the Wu Sect in front of me.
Wu Zong was not in a hurry, and entered the cemetery smoothly under the leadership of Mu Lan, with a big style.
"Let's go, just keep up with Mulan, don't rush."
