Volume 1: Martial Arts Academy Chapter 30: The Cave of the Dead
Everything is going on in an orderly manner, when the villagers are busy, they can't help but look at their personal attributes, I killed 4 monsters yesterday, and the level has increased a lot, but the attribute points have not been added, and today's killing of walking corpses is another wave of experience gain, so let's deal with it together!
"Village Chief, is there a strange place in our place?" Seeing the village chief, Gong Ye couldn't help but ask, because two days ago, through Feng Shui, he found that it was not for nothing that a place of gathering yin was formed here, and there should be a more terrifying place of yin nearby, and through the influence of feng shui, it was possible to form a place of gathering yin in an ordinary place.
"Strange place?" the village chief frowned and shook his head after thinking about it, he had lived here for decades and had never encountered anything strange.
And several old people around the village chief are also respected old people in the village, and one of the old people stood up and said: "If you want to talk about strange places, does the cave of the dead count?"
Gong Ye glanced at the old man, the old man is 80 years old! Full of white hair, wrinkled face, although the old man is very old, but the body bones still look very tough, this is very common in the countryside, 80 years old can work in the field There are also many old people who can work in the fields.
"Dead Man's Cave?"
"Yes, that cave of the dead, we used to call it the cave of evil ghosts, and the younger people don't know where it is. The old man glanced at the village chief, obviously the village chief in his 50s belonged to the young man in his eyes!
The old man touched his beard before he said: "It's about the last century! At that time, there was a shortage of wars, and there were wars everywhere, and there were already some people living here before we moved here in Caojiazhuang, but I don't know why, thousands of refugees who lived here disappeared without a trace in one day." ”
"Some people say that they were captured by the devils at that time, and some people say that they moved their bases, but only I know that they may have all entered the cave of the dead. ”
"Is there anything strange about it?" Gong Ye frowned, thousands of people disappeared without a trace in a day, this is really not a simple matter.
"When we first moved here, I was only a teenager at that time, because at that time, there was no land in the mountains, we could only live by hunting in the mountains, and I was also a member of the hunting team at that time, in order to hunt, our hunting team only had to enter the mountains and forests for a few days before we could go back to the village, and once we walked for two days and came to a strange place. ”
When the old man remembered when he was a child, his face still couldn't help but be a little pale, and his otherwise good body couldn't help but tremble a little.
"Second uncle, pay attention to your body. The village chief walked over and supported the old man's body, there were only a few old people in the village who were older than him, and every old man was a treasure to their village.
The old man patted the village chief's hand and said: "That time, I walked with the villagers of the Liehunter Group, more than 30 people, for two days, and walked to a canyon surrounded by mountains on one side, and there was a bottomless black hole in the innermost part of the canyon, and the empty mouth was pitch black, even if the sun was high at that time, we could not see the situation inside the cave, and I only thought that the previous thousands of refugees had entered the Cave of the Dead because we found a lot of torn clothes and broken shoes at the entrance of the cave. ”
"We are already very remote here, and after two days of walking in the mountains, where is even more quiet and uninhabited, and it is strange to find so many torn clothes and broken shoes at the entrance of the cave! At that time, we were scared and left somewhere, and at night we could hear the sound of ghosts crying, all kinds of screams, and at that time, my uncle, just because he heard the screams, couldn't bear to run away, when we found him, he was already like an idiot, without the slightest consciousness, and then like a walking corpse, he automatically walked to the cave of the dead, and then entered the cave, and several villagers also entered with him, trying to pull my uncle out, but as soon as they entered, they never came out again. ”
Speaking of sadness, the old man couldn't help but wipe his tears with his hands, obviously he suddenly lost a few villagers at that time, and they had nothing to do at that time, which also made him feel very guilty!
"After that, where we called the Cave of the Dead, where it also became a forbidden place for our hunters, since then I left, I have never been there, after we came back except to tell the village chief, I have never mentioned it to anyone, and now I am the only one left in the hunter group who knows about this matter, I originally wanted to take this secret underground and never tell it, but over the years, I feel that the Cave of the Dead is stronger, maybe the things here are also related to the Cave of the Dead. ”
"Old man, what do you mean when you say you feel that the Dead Man's Grotto is stronger?" Gong Ye frowned again, and glanced at the old man, the old man was just a very ordinary old man, and there was nothing peculiar, but how could the old man feel that the Dead Man's Grotto was stronger? And at that time, they had to walk for 2 days to get to the Dead Man's Grotto, obviously the Dead Man's Grotto was not close to the mountain village.
"Although I have never been to the Cave of the Dead, but over the years, life has been good, there are always some people who like to enter the mountains to travel and explore, there have been many people who have entered the mountains to stay in our village, I heard a person who came out of the mountains said once, they said that they went into the mountain together with the expedition team of ten people, but when they came out, there were only three of them, the others did not know what the reason for the change of consciousness all entered a cave, and the cave was too dark, they did not dare to enter, they went out to find a rescue team to rescue, although they did not explain anything, but I knew that he was talking about the Cave of the DeadAt that time, he said that they had to walk all day in the mountains to catch up with their delirious friend, do you think this is getting stronger?"
"When I was young, I could hear the screams of ghosts as long as I walked a few miles, but at that time only my uncle was killed because he was afraid to run away, and those expeditions were a whole day's journey from the Dead Man's Cave!" the old man coughed twice as he spoke, apparently shocked that he knew about it.
"Originally, I was going to discuss with the village chief and let everyone move out of here, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen. ”
Gong Ye nodded, he also had some thoughts in his heart, he wanted to go and see the Dead Man's Cave, if it was really like what the old man said, then this Dead Man's Cave couldn't be ignored, if there were really thousands of people who disappeared into the Dead Man's Cave decades ago, then he had to make some preparations early.
"Ding! Explore the Dead Man's Cave: Find the location of the Dead Man's Cave, remove the hidden dangers of the village, and complete the task reward: 500 experience, 500 gold coins, 50 mana, and an attribute fruit. ”
Glancing at the system prompt, it was obvious that this was the zombie's follow-up mission!
"Old man, where is the Dead Man's Cave, do you remember it now?"
"Dao Chief, you don't want to go to the Dead Man's Cave, do you?" the old man was a little frightened, although he believed in the Dao Master's ability, but it was a Dead Man's Cave!
"Old man, this matter always has to be dealt with, if I don't go to take a look, I feel uneasy, if I let it go, then strange things will continue to appear in the surrounding villages. ”
The old man sighed, turned around and pointed to a place and said: "In which direction to walk the mountain road for two days, you will almost reach the Cave of the Dead, but I didn't go there decades ago, and there was some luck in our search for the Cave of the Dead at that time! ”
"Eh," the old man sighed, very worried, he was worried about the comfort of the Taoist Chief, and he was also worried that if this continued, their Caojiazhuang would one day enter the hunting range of the Dead Man's Cave.
"Xiao Cao! If the Taoist can solve the Cave of the Dead, it would be best, if not, then arrange for the villagers to move! Let them go to the city to live, Caojia Village may be in the near future, too..." The old man didn't continue, and the village chief nodded very seriously, if it was before, he wouldn't believe such a thing, but what happened to these two people made him have to believe it, and they also have villagers who will go up the mountain to hunt, but in the direction of the Dead Man's Cave, they have never been there, because Zu Xun is to never go to the direction of the Dead Man's Cave to hunt, and the offender will be expelled from the village, originally he didn't quite understand what it meant, but now he understands.
This is to protect the lives of the villagers!
When Gong Ye returned to the spirit shed, he saw Zhang Han'er and Cao Qi persuading the two little monsters to stop, and he could only say a sigh about the two little monsters fighting.
He got up and went to pack up his things, the matter here has been satisfactorily resolved, and then he can leave here after completing the task of the Cave of the Dead, but he also likes the mountains, at least practicing in the mountains is better than practicing in the Demon Capital.
He also plans that if the system does not have a task in the future, he will run in the mountains more, at least making himself stronger is the most important thing.
"You don't have to worry about the two of them, they'll stop when they're tired. Looking at Cao Qi and Zhang Han'er, who were in a hurry around, Gong Ye shouted, it's just that the two rookies pecked each other, do you really think there will be a life?
