Chapter 66: Scales
Although the two servants had now completely cleaned up the murals in front of them and quietly retreated to the side, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and each other's expressions revealed deep hesitation, and no one dared to really go forward to take a closer look.
Seeing everyone's palpitations, I couldn't help but smile helplessly.
Obviously, although we still haven't found anything unusual around us, everyone is full of fear of the current Black Rock City, and they don't even dare to snoop into the specific appearance carved on this mural.
And if you think about it, I can understand all this, because even I can't muster up the courage to bravely investigate the cleaned mural now.
As the so-called human fear comes from the unknown, we don't know anything about this Black Rock City, and just now we have inexplicably endured a sudden attack, in such a situation, it is natural that everyone will be afraid of this.
In fact, if the enemy we are about to face suddenly appears and attacks us, even if he cultivates to the heavens and we are powerless to resist, then we will not be so afraid, but will come to block it, cover it with water, and try every means to find the hidden vitality in the desperate situation.
But now, instead of showing up, our enemies have chosen to hide in the darkness and may attack us at any moment, and it is too difficult for us to overcome this fear.
However, it is clear that there does not seem to be the word fear in Chunting's dictionary, and for him, this emotion may never appear on his face.
Just when everyone was afraid to move forward because of fear, Chunting was completely different from us, only to see him frowning and looking at us, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"Those who harbor fear will not succeed in the end."
After finishing speaking, Chunting no longer cared about everyone's changing expressions, but strode towards the position where the soldier had just been, wanting to see what kind of picture this mural presented after it was thoroughly cleaned up.
Soon, we learned what it means to be unpredictable.
Just now I was saying that Chunting was moody, and his face was always so unfazed, but at the moment when Chunting's eyes looked at the complete mural, all of us could clearly see that Chunting was standing in place, as if he had seen some incredible picture.
Seeing this scene, everyone didn't have the heart to let go, and they suddenly lifted it up again.
What exactly did Chunting see?
What kind of picture is depicted on this mural, which can make Chunting such a well-informed and profound character show such a shocked expression in front of us for the first time?
Because of the strange appearance of Chunting now, the frightened people still didn't dare to come to his side to investigate the murals, but out of curiosity, Shen Lang still cautiously asked him.
"Brother Ting, Brother Ting, what is carved on this mural, and why did your expression become so shocked after seeing it?"
Regarding Shen Lang's question, Chun Ting ignored it.
The Spring Pavilion we see in our eyes now is very different from the Spring Pavilion we have known in the past, not only does he not return to the calm and breezy appearance of his usual days, but he frowns and is full of sadness, his expression is full of bewilderment and confusion, and he mutters to himself in disbelief.

"The strange beast in this Black Rock City is actually it, but if it is really it, then how could it be ...... just now?"
Looking at Chunting's appearance like a mad demon now, everyone couldn't help but feel a deeper fear than before.
Undoubtedly, the biggest reliance of our group is the well-informed Spring Pavilion.
Chunting is not only unfathomable in cultivation, but also knows things that many other people will not understand at all, it is with his existence that we can get to this point smoothly, and there have been no big accidents in the process.
And now, from Chunting's self-talk, it is not difficult for us to hear that he actually knows the true identity of the strange beast hidden in the city of black stone, but he just doesn't want to admit it.
It stands to reason that we should already know ourselves and the other by now, so we can naturally come up with a good way to deal with the enemy in advance, but instead of smiling, Chunting now showed such a shocked expression, that is, it invisibly conveyed a message to us.
That is, in Chunting's cognition, our group is by no means the opponent of that strange beast.
Thinking of this, everyone's expressions became more solemn.
Where could this beast be sacred?
Looking back on our experiences along the way, even in the Vientiane Divine Palace, which can be regarded as a life of nine deaths, when facing the ancient giant fierce Wuzhi Qi who raged Huaishui, Chunting had never shown this expression now.
But now in this city of black stone, we haven't even seen the appearance of the enemy, just after seeing the contents of the complete mural, Chunting showed such an expression.
Thinking of this, the fear in our hearts became heavier and heavier, and we couldn't help but secretly guess what kind of strange beast could produce such a terrifying deterrent power against Chunting?
However, although our hearts were filled with fear at this moment, everyone did not hesitate as before, but after looking at each other, everyone unanimously chose to move forward, and came to Chunting's side with a firm expression.
There is no doubt that the hearts of people today are indeed full of fear of the unknown, and these are true.
But there is no doubt that in addition to fear, the affection in the hearts of the people is also true.
Although Chunting is not good at words on weekdays, but along the way, everyone already knows that he is such a cold-hearted person, and after his taciturnity, what is hidden is his care for each of us.
As the saying goes, people are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless, since Chunting is benevolent to us, then how can we let him be alone in that dangerous place now?
Although the fear still cannot be subsided, it is reasonable that we should all stand bravely by Chunting's side and meet the next test with him.
And just after we all stood beside Chunting, we finally understood where the surprise on Chunting's face came from.
As far as the eye can see, the cleaned up part of this mural is not carved with clothes and armor of any era, but a dense set of scales!
