Chapter 52: The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
Xia Chongming ran recklessly in this endless darkness, and the giant crow behind him was in hot pursuit. It is also very inconvenient for her to run barefoot, and she is often crooked.
The distance between her and the giant bird was close and far away, and she couldn't escape no matter what, at this moment, a faint blue ghost fire in front of her suddenly extinguished, and Xia Chongming looked at it with great joy in his heart.
I saw that on the top of the hill not far away, the sheep's head was holding a bunch of blue torches, standing under the tree and looking at her. Xia Chongming hurriedly quickened the pace of his feet, and ran up with three times and five divided by two.
She had been running for so long, she was almost exhausted, and if the giant crow behind her rushed over, she really didn't have the strength to fight again.
Who knew that the giant crow saw that she wanted to run to the top of the mountain, but she actually turned around, turned around and asked for merit like a long roar, and flew away towards the depths of the vast dense forest.
Xia Chongming, who saw this wave of operations, couldn't figure his head in front and couldn't figure it out in the back. She thought that the giant crow would chase after her, why didn't she chase it now?
She slowed down and walked towards the sheep-headed ghost at the top of the mountain. She didn't know why, but at least the crow wouldn't chase her anymore.
She walked over to the sheep-headed ghost and held her knees and gasped for air, and if she still felt pain, she would feel like the soles of her feet were hurting to death.
When she ran just now, she noticed another strange thing in this dense forest, although she couldn't see it very clearly, but there was a "click" sound under her feet, as if she was stepping on a branch, but the sound was much duller than the sound of a branch breaking, as if stepping on countless bones.
The sheep-headed ghost was silently holding the ghost torch, and the faint blue light illuminated his face eeriely, the corners of his mouth rose, and the skin on the sheep's face began to distort.
Xia Chongming lowered his head and gasped as he said, "Ghost cha, where did you go just now?" We reply ...... Yes! ”
She looked up, and saw the sheep-headed ghost throw the torch in his hand to the ground and push her violently. She was caught off guard and fell into the hole behind her.
The sheep-headed ghost's head was twisted and deformed, and finally a very ugly face was revealed! The faint ghost fire on the ground illuminated his figure clearly, and Xia Chongming caught a glimpse of the blood-red gourd on his waist, and instantly understood that she was being calculated!
She was very impressed by this gourd, and when she was trapped in the playground that day, the soul refiner in the black cloak was holding such a gourd.
The soul refiner covered his stomach and couldn't help laughing wildly, he squeezed his ugly face, and said to Xia Chongming who was falling: "Holy Maiden? What a stinking fart! I have always remembered the hatred of the broken arm that day, you destroyed my gourd, broke my arm, I want your soul to be scattered! ”
Xia Chongming was shocked, it turned out that he was the soul refiner who wanted to collect her soul that day, it turned out that he had always been a vicious wolf in sheep's clothing!
He only hated why she hadn't recognized it earlier, and now he had pushed her into this abyss, even if she didn't have a soul to fly away by luck. Presumably, I will wait here until the sky is old and I will never be able to turn over!
The soul refiner outside the abyss didn't seem to be very relieved, he actually found a boulder and pressed the entrance of the cave to death, and now Xia Chongming had no way to get out at all.
Xia Chongming looked at the treacherous face at the entrance of the cave viciously, hanging his legs helplessly at the bottom of the cave.
She opened her eyes of ice and fire and surveyed her surroundings. It seems to be a natural cave, surrounded by all kinds of strangely shaped stalactites, which should have been beautiful.
But now she doesn't feel beautiful at all, this cave is dark, and the sound of ticking water echoes in the cave, making the whole cave extremely weird.
She walked around the cave a few times and finally found a secret passage in a stone pillar. This secret passage seems to be very old, and it leads straight underground.
Xia Chongming had no choice, now that the only way out above his head was blocked by a big stone, it must be impossible to return the same way. Now that you have discovered this secret passage, you can only take the risk alone, so let's give it a try.
She walked barefoot towards the bottom of the steps, and the moment the soles of her feet touched the steps, her head suddenly "buzzed" loudly, and a voice warned in her head: "You can't go down!" ”
Xia Chongming shook his head, maybe it was because this secret passage was pitch black, and he was afraid of it, so he had an instinctive reaction. She coughed lightly, hummed a light song in her mouth, and walked slowly.
The stairs had been eroded by the mist in the cave for many years, and had become so smooth that she had almost fallen down several times. In order to walk more steadily, she leaned against the potholed wall as she walked.
The silver ornaments on her body made a faint sound with her footsteps, and in this empty secret passage, with her singing, it looked particularly ethereal.
This secret passage seems to lead straight to the ground, and if you fall down, you must be crushed. Xia Chongming thought in his heart.
It's just that the more she walks, the more she feels that something is wrong. Since this soul refiner wanted to harm her, he would have locked her in a closed space, or directly taken her soul away. Isn't he aware of the secret passage in this cave, so that he is not afraid of her escaping?
No, no, with that person's kung fu, it's not too much to beat her directly, why bother to lure her over?
Could it be that she fell into this cave and walked into this secret passage, all of which were designed by the soul refiner?
This secret passage leads to a place that is by no means a good place. Xia Chongming thought, but now she is desperate.
She can only see the tricks, and she will plan it.
She walked along the secret passage for a long time, and at last it dawned in front of her, and a huge cave appeared in front of her.
This cave looked empty at first glance, but Xia Chongming soon discovered that there was a large bird statue standing in this cave.
The stone statue of the Great Bird is locked by five iron chains, showing a state of being unable to fly more and more, and is firmly imprisoned at the bottom of the deep cave by several iron chains.
I have to say that this statue is really lifelike, when he first came in, Xia Chongming thought that he had encountered some strange creature again, and when he looked closely, he found that it was just a stone statue.
There is a "De" pattern on the head of this big bird, but this pattern is obviously artificially scratched, which looks a little mottled. A messy feather is fixed there, and it has long tail feathers, which is very beautiful.
Xia Chongming walked around the hole, and there was nothing else except for the big bird statue.
She walked over to a chain and touched it with her fingertips. The chain was swarthy and swarthy, emitting a cold light, and it made a chain sound when it moved.
There was also a stele in front of the statue, which was covered with a thick layer of dust. The curious Xia Chongming stepped forward, brushed off the soil on the stele, and read the inscription.
She brushed away the heavy soil, and a string of golden words came into her eyes: The ancient sinner Feng Qingyan, sealed here, those who come here, remember not to move. Heavy Ming, sealed.
The last word "seal" was surprisingly big, Xia Chongming swiped his fingertips between the lines, and finally landed on the word "seal".
She was still immersed in endless thoughts, could this Feng Qingyan be the big bird in front of her? And who is the last "Chongming"? It's the same as her name.
Her finger pressed on the golden word "seal", and the big golden character actually began to disappear slowly, Xia Chongming let out an exclamation and hurriedly removed his hand.
