XXIV. Necromantic Knight
The dragon's face was very anxious, and there was a faint murderous intent in his eyes. I thought maybe he was going through a fight just now.
I asked the Dragon's Tooth why he wanted to leave here, and he said it was too late to wait until he found a safe place to tell me.
After waking up the beard, we packed up our gear on the ground. It was still raining outside, so we packed some water-resistant items such as dry batteries and food in waterproof bags. Tighten the neckline of the jacket with a rope so that the clothes inside will not get wet.
After cleaning up and taking a look at the pouring rain outside, we gritted our teeth and walked outside.
This time it was the dragon's tooth leading the way, just now Geng Yan had already helped him treat the wound simply, at this time, it seemed that except for his pale face, there was nothing abnormal about the rest.
He walked so fast that it was almost as if he was running for his life. And he kept looking back behind him, and his cautious appearance made us all nervous.
Dragon's Tooth led us around for half an hour before stopping under a dense canopy.
Because of the canopy overhead, there is much less rain here. Dragon's Tooth looked behind him and said to us, "They shouldn't be able to chase for so long in this rain." Let's take a break here. ”。
I heard him mean as if someone was following us just now, and he asked incredulously, "Who?" Who's tracking us? ”。
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on the dragon's teeth.
Dragon's Tooth said: ". I was chasing the guy when I ran into that thing on the road. But it was just one, and even then I was hurt.
After chasing for a distance, I decided that there was no hope but to return.
As he passed through the cave, he saw a bright light and approached him. I didn't know who it was, so I was careful, and because of that, I discovered your danger.
On the periphery of the cave I saw more than ten of those things there. I waited for half the night and didn't see any movement from them, but I quietly observed you in the rain, I thought it was strange, and I didn't dare to move. It wasn't until the middle of the night that I found that those things were increasing, and there were as many as twenty in just ten minutes. In the end, I felt that it was not good, so I made a detour to the entrance of the cave and called you out in a hurry. ”。
He said it lightly, but I listened to it with horror. This kid had been watching us from the periphery of the cave just now, and we didn't feel anything. This has to be surprising.
Yang Fei asked, "What is it?" People? ”。
Dragontooth shook his head and said, "It's not a human, it's a necromantic knight." Guardian of 131. ”。
Necro Knight? I've seen pictures like this on my computer. I don't know if it's the same.
Seeing us puzzled, Dragon's Tooth continued, "That's a warrior riding a female corpse. With an iron mask similar to a fox on his face, he looks terrifying. ”。
I was shocked at the same time as the beard, isn't this the kind of Hades riding corpses we have encountered before? How can it appear here again, and there are so many of them.
Of all the people present, I was the only one who had that experience. As soon as the Dragon's Tooth's words were finished at this time, I immediately thought of the kind of spirit warrior who rode a ghost corpse.
Will we still encounter Yin soldiers to borrow the way? When I think of this, my heart is only sudden.
Not knowing what we were thinking, Dragontooth continued, "When we were walking just now, I felt that one of the things was following us. But after ten minutes, that feeling was gone, and I think they couldn't walk in the woods after all, so we must have thrown them off. ”。
As soon as I heard him, this was a comforting word, that thing could be easily thrown off by us? Lao Tzu didn't believe it.
I glanced at the beard and saw that he was also in disbelief.
Geng Yan asked Dragon Tooth on the side, "Are you sure?" ”。
"Not sure!" Dragon's tooth's answer is cool. He continued, "I've figured out how to deal with that thing, though."
I asked him what the solution was. He said, "Do you think that thing can go up a tree?" He looked up at the huge canopy above.
Damn, this is a genius. Beard praised from the sidelines.
I remembered the kind of thing I had encountered before that rode on a corpse, and although the shape was terrifying, it should be impossible to climb the trunk of a tree that was more than four meters long.
As soon as we discussed, the method that Jue's Dragon's Tooth said was feasible, as long as we could survive until dawn, everything would be easy to say. Not because the thing disappears after dawn, but because after dawn we can see them and get out of the way very early.
Not all ghosts are active at night. That's what Feijing told me.
All of us went up the tree, and the Tibetan mastiff girl's dog was also led to the side by her.
After climbing the tree, I realized that the canopy of the tree was almost seventy or eighty square meters. The branches are so staggered that it's easy to find a place to stay. We picked the thickest trunk to rest on, and made a shelter from the rain with a tarp for our beard. We cats keep warm together.
It's seven or eight meters above the ground, and it's the distance we can see vaguely from the ground. This is exactly what we can see, and if the thing is really chasing us, we can see it.
After a night of tossing, all of us lost our sleepiness. I leaned against my beard and smoked, but I didn't dare to smoke in the open, because the light of the fireworks could be seen from a distance of 100 meters, and there were other unknown forces here, so we had to be careful in everything.
The beard made a horn out of leaves and put the cigarette butt in it so that he would not worry about the light being seen by others.
I chatted quietly with Geng Yan, the bearded man, and the rain outside was loud, so I didn't have to worry about it going far away.
Beard was there to tell us about his previous tomb robbing. While we were talking, I noticed that the dragon's teeth had fallen asleep against a tree branch. Later, I heard the eyelids fighting, and finally said hello to the beard, and fell asleep in a daze.
Because it was in a tree, I was afraid that I would fall below after falling asleep, so I slept very carefully. In fact, he didn't sleep to death, he just leaned on that fake sleep.
Unconsciously, I heard the sound of the rain outside, gradually getting quieter, and finally I could barely hear it. I opened my eyes and saw that the rain had completely stopped.
Looking at the others, they were all asleep, and only the Tibetan mastiff girl sat quietly on the trunk of the tree, looking motionless at the ground below, as if in a daze.
She had short, neat hair, which had just been wet from the rain and had not yet dried, and her bangs were dripping with water, which would have been charming if the light was enough to see her face. I rubbed my face and moved closer to her.
Seeing me approaching, she gestured to me and whispered, "There's someone down there."
Surprised and frightened in my heart, I lowered my voice and asked, "Where is it?" ”。
She pointed in a direction, and I found it to be in another, slightly shorter canopy. You can't see anything in such a dim light.
She pointed me in the direction and said in a low voice, "I accidentally found it after a lightning bolt just now, I don't know who it is?" Look inside the tree. A little to the left".
I looked in the direction she said, and at first I couldn't see anything, but after a while, I saw a vague figure motionless in the dense branches and leaves, and it looked very strange. I feel the cold sweat running down my back, who is this person? When was it here?
