Chapter 302: Mandrill (2nd Watch)
Until this time, we couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
I stared at the Celestial Maiden differently and couldn't help but ask her, "What the hell is going on?" When I used to burn incense and ask corpses, it was just that the three sticks of incense that were lit would have problems. But why did the corpse happen this time? ”
Hearing my question, the Celestial Maiden looked at the red coffin. Then, he said to me, "Because the corpses in here are not simple!" It can also be said that it is no longer as simple as a corpse! ”
As soon as he heard the Heavenly Maiden say this, Qiao Fat Man on the side couldn't help but open his mouth and ask the Heavenly Maiden: "If it's not a corpse, then what will it be?" ”
"Mandrill!"
The Heavenly Maiden said these two words lightly.
Hearing this, the faces of Fat Qiao and I couldn't help but change!
Both of us are descendants of the five major families, so we naturally understand what this so-called mandrill is.
The so-called mandrills are not corpses or ghosts, they belong to the category of spirits! Their peculiarities can be described in one sentence. That is to jump out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements!
Therefore, common sense cannot explain them correctly at all. It can only be said that if the corpse is stored in the mountain for too long, it will become a mandrill.
Once the mandrill is raised, it is invulnerable to fire and water, and invulnerable. Even some Dao Sect spells didn't do anything to it! It can be said that it is a very tricky one!
Once you encounter a mandrill, it can only be easy to dodge and not easy to fight!
That means don't mess with them!
And ordinary mandrills will appear in the deep mountains and old forests. And not all corpses become mandrills! It can be said that the innate conditions for becoming a mandrill are very harsh!
However, we just didn't expect that there would be mandrills in this hill!
Now that we knew each other's identities, neither of us lingered, turned around and left.
Actually, what we want to do now is very simple. That is, as long as you find the source of this small river, you are basically half done!
However, I don't know what's going on. We've all been walking around the hill for a long time, but we haven't reached the end of the story. It's as if we've been circling around the hill for so long.
I can't help but think of ghosts hitting the wall, or ghosts covering their eyes!
So, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at the Heavenly Maiden, planning to open the yin and yang eyes to see the situation first.
However, the Celestial Maiden shook her head at me and said, "It's useless! This is not a ghost hitting the wall, but a very powerful formation! If we want to crack this formation, we can only follow the road in front of us until the end. ”
Hearing the Heavenly Maiden say this, I could only give up.
However, seeing that the sky around us was getting darker and darker, we had to find a place to rest for a while.
Night does not go to the mountains! These are the words left by the ancestors. So, there must be a reason for it!
We picked up some random wood around and started a fire.
Suddenly, I felt a burst of warmth and steadfastness.
As soon as we rested, we immediately felt a little empty in our stomachs. In order to find the source of the river as soon as possible, the three of us didn't even eat lunch. Therefore, at this time, I was already hungry with my heart close to my back!
If you want to catch some fish from the creek, learn from those who are wild adventurers, and have a grilled whole fish. However, I immediately remembered that there was no living thing in this small river.
In desperation, Fat Qiao had no choice but to say to us: "You wait for me here, I'll look around." See if there are any wild fruits and pick some back. You can't go hungry all night! ”
Hearing Fat Joe say this, I also stood up and prepared to go with Fat Joe.
But the Celestial Maiden grabbed me and said, "You are here to watch the fire, and I will go with him separately to find it." It can also be a little faster! ”
Hearing the Celestial Maiden say this, I knew that even if I wanted to oppose it, it would be useless!
So, the two men got up and went their separate ways.
Watching the two people leave in different directions, I could only stay where I was and look at the fire in front of me.
Before you know it, the two have been gone for a long time. I'm starting to get a little worried, too!
At this moment, suddenly, a gust of wind blew around me! The wind howled, blowing the fire in front of me even more vigorously! Moreover, there was also a "whirring" sound around, as if it was a wolf crying and a ghost howling.
As soon as I heard this voice, my heart couldn't help but tighten!
Because, this wind is really strange! Without a hint of warning!
I hurriedly stood up and began to look around.
However, except for where I was, it was pitch black. Nothing can be seen!
I couldn't help but frown. After watching it for a while, there was still a dead silence around me, and there was no more sound.
I gradually let my guard down and sat down again.
However, at this moment, suddenly, I heard a "pop" sound from the small river in front of me. It's as if someone suddenly jumped into the water!
I got up from the ground again. At the same time, he also picked up a wooden stick from the ground and used it for self-defense.
However, after standing there for a while, nothing happened.
However, the voice just now was so real and obvious! And. Even now. I could also feel that there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching my every move in the darkness around me! It makes me feel uncomfortable with my scalp and my whole body!
I took a deep breath. Then, I walked slowly towards the small river in front of me. I wanted to see what was going on in that creek. I can only put my mind at ease if I see it with my own eyes!
So, with the stick in my right hand and a blood coin in my left hand, I began to walk forward little by little.
I slowly came to the river, and then, stopping there, looked at the river.
The surroundings are still the same as before, especially dark! And for some reason, the night on this mountain is darker than the night in the village! Even now I'm standing on the edge of this little river. However, he still couldn't see the surrounding scene clearly. I can only vaguely feel that there is nothing special happening here.
So, what's going on with that voice just now? What's the matter with my instinctive nervousness right now?
Just when I didn't know how to explain all this. Suddenly, I felt someone pull me from behind.
When this kind of thing happened suddenly, my whole body immediately felt a numb scalp! Then, instinctively, he turned around and smashed the wooden stick in his hand behind him.
And the guy standing behind me didn't expect me to do it all of a sudden! Hurriedly dodged my stick. Then, he said to me loudly, "I said, what's the matter with you kid?" Is it evil? ”
Suddenly I heard this voice, and I immediately stopped what I was doing. Only then did I realize that it was Qiao Fat who was standing behind me!
As soon as I saw that the fat man was back, my heart suddenly became a lot more steady. Then, he said to the fat man Qiao: "Don't say so much, there is something in this little river!" ”
Suddenly hearing me say this, Qiao Fat Man was also shocked! Then he hurriedly returned to the fire, and took out a burning stick from the fire. He walked back to me. Then, he took a picture of the river with the stick. Suddenly, the river in front of us was much brighter with firelight.
At the same time, we also see that the river is empty, and there is nothing. Only the clear water of the river is still flowing tirelessly!
This...... How can this be explained?
Fat Qiao couldn't help but turn his head to look at me at this time. Then, he asked me, "Lin Shuo, you shouldn't be an auditory hallucination, right?" You see, there is not even a trace of muddness in the river. It doesn't look like something fell into the river at all! ”
Hearing Qiao Fatzi's words, my whole body was speechless for a while, and I didn't know what was going on at all.
And at this time, the Celestial Maiden also returned.
After she saw me and Qiao Fatzi standing by the river in a daze, she asked lightly, "What's wrong?" Is there something going on in the river? ”
Hearing the Celestial Maiden's question, I glanced back at her. Then, he told the Celestial Maiden what had just happened.
However, I didn't expect that the Heavenly Maiden didn't have any expression after hearing my words. Just said to us, "Hurry up and get something to eat." Then, take a good rest! ”
I looked at the Heavenly Maiden differently, and I didn't know why she was so indifferent to this matter at this time! That's not her character at all!
However, since the Heavenly Maiden said so, then there must be a reason for her!
So, after looking at Fat Qiao and I, I didn't say anything more, but sat back down by the fire.
Qiao Fatzi and Tiannu went out this time, and they gained a lot! At the moment, there are many wild fruits piled up on the ground in front of me.
Because I'm hungry. So, I didn't bother with anything else. He just picked up the fruit and ate it.
After eating, the three of us leaned against the tree and the stone and began to rest.
Even though there is still no answer to what happened just now. However, it seems that nothing has happened anymore!
And Qiao Fatzi and Tiannu also closed their eyes at this time and began to rest.
With the two of them by my side, I feel safe too!
Listening to the sound of whirring flames, I slowly closed my eyes.
It's so tiring to trek through mountains and rivers this day! So, after a while, I fell asleep little by little!
