Chapter 296: Why Not Me
"Don't be afraid!" Everyone looked at Second Master Bai and said.
"Okay, in that case, let's set up camp here tonight first, and go down to the valley early tomorrow morning!" Second Master Bai looked at everyone and shouted again.
Then, everyone began to set up tents and camp nearby according to Bai Erye's instructions.
After setting up the tent, the next day he took everyone to find some dry firewood nearby and build a bonfire, which was considered to be a good camp.
After the camp was completed, Bai Erye took everyone to sit down in the same place, and after everyone sat down, Bai Erye glanced at everyone, and then said to Ertian: "Ertian, are tomorrow's routes ready?" ”
"Well, Second Master, everything is ready, if nothing happens, we will be able to reach our destination the day after tomorrow after we pass the canyon safely!" Ertian looked at Second Master Bai and said.
"Okay, everyone should rest early, tomorrow after going down the canyon, it will be dangerous, you must keep your energy full!" Second Master Bai looked at everyone and said.
"Well, then the second master, you should rest first! I'll arrange for someone to keep vigil! Ertian looked at Second Master Bai and said.
"It's okay, you guys rest first, I can't sleep, I'll just come and watch it in the first half of the night!" Second Master Bai looked at Ertian and said.
The second day heard Bai Erye say this, he didn't say anything more, and after thanking him, he went into the tent to rest.
Subsequently, after everyone went to rest, Bai Erye guarded the fire and pondered, at this moment, on the top of Kunlun Mountain, the moonlight was like water on the treetops, and it was not very dark outside, but there was a particularly beautiful feeling.
He just wants to accompany his children and wife in peace and live a down-to-earth life, in fact, now that he wants to come, when he begged for bread and food under the city wall, it was not so bad, that life was easier for him than now, at least he thought so.
Thinking of this at this moment, Second Master Bai suddenly heard a wolf howl, "Whoa! The voice came from far and near, with a kind of unwillingness and chagrin in the voice.
Hearing this voice, Second Master Bai immediately looked around, and immediately he gasped, because in the dark, he saw a pair of green wolf eyes one after another.
At this moment, although he couldn't see the actions of those wolves clearly, he could clearly feel that those wolves were moving slowly in the dark night, looking for opportunities everywhere, trying to tear their group apart.
Seeing this, Bai Er Ye immediately became vigilant, these wild animals are different from other things, he is different from people, people will consider the consequences, they will not, they only know natural selection, they only know whether they can tear their prey apart.
But at this moment, Bai Er Ye suddenly discovered that something was wrong with those wolves, because he felt the cowardice of those wolves, yes, timidity, cowardice from the heart.
"What are these brutes afraid of?" Second Master Bai wondered in his heart.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?" Wu Han walked out, looked at Second Master Bai and asked.
"There are wolves!" Second Master Bai pointed to the pair of ghostly eyes in the distance and said to Wu Han.
Second Master Bai didn't answer Wu Han's words again, he was looking around carefully, because he suddenly felt that an even more strange and dangerous force was nearby.
"Don't shout, be quiet!" Second Master Bai looked at Wu Han and said.
After he finished speaking, he continued to look at the black shadow, and saw that the black shadow actually stood up slowly, yes, like a human being, after he stood up, he first wailed twice into the distance, and then suddenly bent his legs and knelt down, and then actually crawled on the ground, kowtowing to the moon in the sky.
This move was so weird that looking at this scene, Second Master Bai even felt that the air around him had become weird.
And that Wu Han was even more dumbfounded, looking at the strange picture in the distance, and said in surprise: "This ...... What's going on? ”
"Shhhh Second Master Bai looked at Wu Han and reminded.
In fact, Second Master Bai was also surprised at the moment, but he felt that he seemed to have seen all this in front of him, or seemed to have heard others mention it.
His mind kept recalling, and suddenly he remembered that this was the legendary fox fairy worshipping the moon.
When he was a child, when he followed his white-clothed master around to learn art, the master once pointed to the fox and said to himself that this fox was one of the three immortals, and they relied on the moon to cultivate, and on the day when they attained the Tao and ascended, they would specially worship the moon and thank the moon.
So at this moment, this fox is about to ascend to the Tao, so she is worshipping the moon to repay her kindness, thinking of this, Bai Er Ye looked back at Wu Han and said: "It's okay, this is a fox worshipping the moon, it shouldn't hurt us, as long as we don't provoke it!" ”
"The fox worships the moon, what's the situation?" Wu Han looked at Second Master Bai and asked curiously.
"Alright, don't ask so much, hurry up and go to bed!" Second Master Bai had no intention of satisfying Wu Han's curiosity.
Seeing Second Master Bai like this, Wu Han suppressed the curiosity in his heart, turned around and walked into the tent.
Seeing this, Second Master Bai didn't care about the fox over there worshipping the moon, but sat down again around the fire and thought about life again.
In this way, until the second half of the night, the two days came out of the tent rubbing his eyes, looked at Bai Erye and said, "Second Master, go in and rest!" ”
Sure enough, he saw a picture that frightened him even more on the other side of those wolves, that is, behind his own.
It was also a pair of eyes shining with green ghostly light, four to be exact, at this moment, that thing was the same as the wolves, hidden in the dark, and Bai Er Ye couldn't see what it was at all.
It's just vaguely visible, and the thing is also on all fours, and like those wolves, it is wailing at the moment.
Seeing this, Second Master Bai turned to Wu Han behind him and said, "Do you see that black shadow on the dirt slope?" It was it that frightened a pack of wild wolves! “
Hearing Second Master Bai's words, Wu Han turned around and looked over, and sure enough, there was a black shadow on the dirt slope, which was about the same size as a wolf, but at this moment, it was just from that black shadow that Wu Han judged that the deterrent power of that thing was actually greater than that of this group of wild wolves.
Seeing this, Wu Han turned back to Second Master Bai in fear and said, "That...... What is that thing? ”
"I don't know, I can't see clearly, but the danger factor is quite high!" Second Master Bai looked at Wu Han and said.
"What then? Do you want to get them up? Wu Han looked at Second Master Bai and said.
"No, I'm not sure what it is, it's useless to call them up, let's observe first!" Second Master Bai looked at Wu Han and said.
After saying that, he crouched down, then looked at the black shadow and observed it carefully.
Immediately, I saw that the thing was also squatting down at this moment, like a human being, drooping back for two days, sitting like that on the hillside in the distance, looking at the sky at a forty-five degree angle with both eyes.
"It, what is it doing?" Wu Han looked at the dark shadow in the distance and exclaimed.
After Wu Han raised his eyes and saw the pair of eyes in the distance, he immediately turned back to Bai Erye and said, "Do you want me to wake them up?" ”
"No need, those wolves seem to be afraid of something, and they don't dare to come!" Second Master Bai looked at Wu Han and said.
"What are you afraid of! What are they afraid of? Wu Han said suspiciously, and then raised his eyes to look around.
"I don't know, but I feel their timidity!" Second Master Bai opened his mouth and said to Wu Han.
"Cowardly, can there be anything in this deep mountain and old forest that can make this wolf pack afraid?" Wu Han said even more puzzled.
Second Master Bai was alone in the dark at the moment, looking at all this in front of him, he suddenly doubted that he really had the determination to go down that valley?
It was the only time in his life that he doubted himself, and he began to wonder if what he had been holding on to all these years really made sense.
He began to wonder if it really made sense for him to work so hard to sit in the position of the second of the five families? What is he insisting on all this for, he is not like Zhao Weiguo, for the country and the people, and he is not like other people in Wumen, for money and profit, he just wants to live a peaceful and stable life, if he can use the position of Wumen to exchange for a worry-free life, Bai Erye will be the first to change.
"That's not a big deal, there is thunder in broad daylight, and we can hear it clearly outside the mountain!" The uncle said, glancing at the canyon.
"Why is there thunder?" Second Master Bai looked at the uncle and asked.
After the uncle heard Second Master Bai's words, he secretly glanced at the canyon again, and then turned back and whispered to Second Master Bai: "Then you don't need to talk about it!" That's the thunder, dealing with the demons and monsters in the valley, don't let them come out! ”
After hearing the uncle's words, Second Master Bai smiled and said, "It's a little interesting, when you say that, I really want to go down and have a look!" ”
But after the uncle heard Second Master Bai's words, he spoke to him again and persuaded him: "This master, I didn't say you, you must not be reckless!" Over the years, I have brought countless regiments into this Kunlun Mountain, like you, there have been, I have said the same thing to them, but some people don't want to believe it, they have to go down to see, and as a result, they all died, they all died in this valley! None of them will come out alive, and I advise you to believe me, or you will be next! ”
"Uncle, do you know who this master is? How dare you say such a thing! Ertian next to him looked at the old man and said.
"No matter who you are, it's the same when you go down this valley, you can't come back!" The uncle looked at Ertian and said.
"Hey, I said you old man, you're really stubborn!" Ertian said angrily.
At this time, the second master Bai said: "Okay, this uncle, you don't have to say more, since I have arrived here, it is absolutely impossible for me to go back, I have not seen all kinds of strange things over the years, since you are afraid, I can't force you, you can send us here!" I don't embarrass you, please go back, we'll see you again! ”
When the uncle heard Second Master Bai say this, he knew that he had made up his mind, and it was useless to say anything more, so he sighed heavily, looked at Second Master Bai and said, "Hey! If you have to go, go ahead! My old man is gone, if you can come out alive, I will wait for you at the bottom of the mountain! ”
After saying that, the old man walked back by himself, and before leaving, he didn't forget to look back at Bai Erye and them, and finally shook his head helplessly and disappeared into the forest.
After the old man left, Second Master Bai looked at the valley again, and then turned back to the people behind him and said, "Everyone, we must cross this canyon, even if there are many dangers here, we must cross, this is our only way, I have never been afraid of anything in my life?" Are you afraid? ”
But at this moment, when they entered Kunlun Mountain, the tour guide uncle they brought with them suddenly ran over, looked at Bai Erye and the others and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, wait a minute, my old man is bothersome to ask, what are you going to do?" ”
Hearing the uncle's words, Second Master Bai turned to look at the uncle and said, "Uncle, we are going to go down to the valley!" What's wrong? Any questions? ”
Listening to Second Master Bai's words, the uncle seemed to have seen a ghost, his whole body trembled, and then he looked at Second Master Bai and said, "You...... You're not crazy, aren't you? Do you know what kind of valley it is? This is the valley of death, can this valley go down casually? No, I can't! ”
Hearing the uncle's words, Second Master Bai smiled and said nonchalantly: "Uncle, it's okay!" With me, you can rest assured! And it's already here, and there's no other way to go down the valley! ”
Hearing the words of the second master Bai, this uncle immediately pulled the sleeve of his coat, looked at him with a frightened face and said, this master is not me to scare you, this is really unbearable! I really can't go, it's not that I'm scaring you, going here is a dead end, it's really a dead end! And if you die, you may not be able to leave a whole corpse! Can't go, can't go! ”
Seeing this uncle's appearance, Second Master Bai was a little curious, turned his head to look at the uncle and said, "Why can't you go?" ”
After hearing Second Master Bai's words, the uncle settled down a little, then looked at Second Master Bai and said slowly: "Do you know why this valley of death is called the valley of death?" Because more than 1,000 Japanese devils were killed in this place back then, do you think it can be clean underneath? Those Japanese devils can't come up after they die, so they have been waiting for someone to go down below, and then they pull on their backs! ”
Hearing the uncle's words, Second Master Bai smiled noncommittally, and then turned to the uncle and said, "Fellow, aren't you feudal superstition!" It's really not credible! ”
When the uncle heard Second Master Bai say this, he was immediately unhappy, and then looked at Second Master Bai and said: "Don't believe it, you say that if there is a ghost down here, you don't believe it, then you tell me, what's going on with the continuous thunder in broad daylight, even if there are no ghosts underneath, can you stand the thunder?" Therefore, if people enter this place, they will not be able to get out. ”
When the uncle heard Second Master Bai say this, he knew that he had made up his mind, and it was useless to say anything more, so he sighed heavily, looked at Second Master Bai and said, "Hey! If you have to go, go ahead! My old man is gone, if you can come out alive, I will wait for you at the bottom of the mountain! ”
