Chapter 24: Distress
Xu Lin's black pupils shrank and nodded.
Kong Yan cautiously walked out of the cave, the dazzling sunlight outside made his brain have a trance for a few seconds, he blocked his eyes with his hands, and just felt that he was getting used to it, he felt that it was dark in front of him, and a figure actually fell from the sky, he reacted quickly, turned around and ran back.
"Look for death!" The person behind him shouted excitedly and swung a stick over.
Kong Yan turned around and raised his palm, and the ashes of the grass and trees sprinkled into the other party's eyes, and the person who came suddenly covered his eyes and scolded in pain, "My day is your uncle!" What are you doing in a daze, come down for me and kill this dog! When the man had finished speaking, three people slipped down the vines from the cliff to the top of the cliff.
Kong Yan shouted into the cave as he ran, "Xulin, run!" ”
Xu Lin had already heard the movement outside, he was dragging his injured leg and was hurriedly cleaning up the dried meat and herbs in the cave, hearing Kong Yan's shout, he was also a little panicked, and ran outside with something, but as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he saw Kong Yan being kicked to the ground by two people, where could Kong Yan's weak body withstand their kicks, but he couldn't speak in pain twice, and could only lie on the ground and cough violently.
"Boss, there's another one!" The other party's people shouted, and at the same time, they also noticed the things in Xu Lin's arms, and immediately screamed excitedly, "Grandma's, they actually hide so many good things!" Brothers, grab it for me! ”
"Open! Gun! Kong Yan raised his head with difficulty and shouted at Xu Lin.
Xu Lin gritted his teeth tightly, looked at Kong Yan, and then looked at the two people rushing towards him, his hands holding things trembled like a sieve, and his clear eyes were full of anxiety and fear. At the same time, Kong Yan's eager urging voice sounded in his ears again, like a life-urging talisman, which made Xu Lin's heart numb, and his mind was blank.
At the same time, on the other side, when Xiang Qingwu was about to go back with his prey, the three children appeared again.
"You're not allowed to go." One of the little girls threatened with open arms.
The leading boy grinned, "If you go back now, you will be sent to death, you might as well give us something, we won't do anything to you." ”
Xiang Qingwu's face changed when he heard this, and he asked, "What do you mean?" “
The little girl giggled, "Oh, don't you know? Sun Hai and the others have been eyeing you for a long time, and now they may have climbed the cliff, do you still have companions? But it's okay, it's not going to be there soon, Sun Hai, they're very powerful! ”
Xiang Qingwu let out a "groan" in his heart, and immediately raised his hand to push out the girl who was blocking in front of him, and said sharply, "Get out!" ”
The girl glared angrily at Xiang Qingwu's leaving, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't be complacent, you can't beat Sun Hai and them, there are four of them, all of them are strong!" ”
Xiang Qingwu didn't seem to hear it, and in a few blinks of an eye, he had already disappeared into the dense forest.
"Guoguo, are you alright?" Another slightly chubby boy asked as he picked up the girl in distress.
The girl named Guoguo pouted and said, "I hate that woman!" ”
The boy in the lead didn't care, he only grinned, "Guoguo, don't worry, Sun Hai, they will avenge you soon!" ”
"Mo Ke, why did you ask me to tell that stinky woman about how many people Sun Hai and the others had?" Guoguo asked unhappily, and said unwillingly, "I wish she was poisoned!" ”
Mo Ke, that is, the leading boy, rubbed his stomach, which was a little crampy from hunger, and calculated, "That woman is very powerful, maybe she can kill Sun Hai and them, if Sun Hai and them are all dead, think about it, won't their things be ours at that time?" ”
When the little fat man heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, "If Sun Hai and the others die, we can eat chocolate and bread!" ”
Guoguo couldn't help swallowing his saliva, but still said unwillingly, "It would be better if both parties died." ”
Moko looked at the cliffs in the distance expectantly, if they were all dead, it would be the best. After a while, Moko turned around and patted Guoguo's head, and said encouragingly, "Okay, let's wait for them to lose both." Now Fat Dun'er, you go back and take your brother to find a place to eat, and Guoguo and I will look on the river beach again, maybe we can find Brother Lu Yan today! ”
Fat Dun'er nodded, and said confidently, "Cheng, I'll go to the camp in the woods in front this time, there are few people in that team, and the vigilance is not strong, if I steal something, I will run, they will definitely not catch us!" ”
Mo Ke was not at ease and advised, "Then you have to pay attention, Brother Lu Yan said, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!" ”
Guoguo made a grimace and laughed at the fat dun'er, "Look at your fat, if you are caught, you may be able to make the other party eat enough!" ”
Fat Dun always has no temper with Shangguoguo, and lets her make fun of him with a smile, but he doesn't want Guoguo to be a prophecy......
When Xiang Qingwu returned to the cliff, he heard a terrible shout from above, and then saw a fire falling from the cliff, and the man was still alive when he landed, and he let out a terrified scream from his mouth, and then he swallowed his breath.
Xiang Qingwu's heart sank, and then he used his feet to move and pulled the vines and walked up the cliff. When she landed, her face changed instantly.
I saw that the cliff was in a mess, and two charred corpses were next to the entrance of the cave, one corpse showed the posture of running out from the inside, and the other corpse was in the posture of preparing to run inside from the outside, and the dried meat and medicinal herbs scattered on the ground next to it showed that Xu Lin was likely to have encountered an accident.
Xiang Qingwu walked quickly past the two corpses, and accidentally touched one of them on the placket, only to hear a "click", and the corpse instantly disintegrated like a mound of dirt, falling to the ground and shattering into powder.
Originally, I thought that these two corpses were the same as those human bodies on the river beach, but now it seems that they are completely different, human skin may be easily burned, but human bones can not be burned into ashes by a fire, that is to say, these two people are likely not to have died of spontaneous combustion due to anger at all!
On the island of Nanae, anything weird can happen!
Thinking of this, Xiang Qingwu only felt a chill in his back, and then went to look at another charred corpse, only then did he notice that although this person was also burned to death, his situation was much better than the other, at least his facial features still had outlines, what kind of fire could keep his body from being destroyed while burning people?
Xiang Qingwu had never seen it before, and he couldn't figure it out.
The only good news is that I am afraid that it can be distinguished from the size of the two, they are not Xu Lin and Kong Yan.
"Ahh Stay back! Suddenly there was a frightened cry from inside the cave.
Xiang Qingwu didn't have time to think, so he picked up the dried meat and herbs on the ground and chased after him.
How deep the cave is, Xiang Qingwu and the others haven't had time to explore, they can only feel the wind coming from inside. However, Kong Yan had studied it and came to the conclusion that it was incredible, he believed that the cave was likely to lead to the bottom of the cliff, or even another space that was completely different from the Seven Islands. Xiang Qingwu was noncommittal about this conclusion, but as she went deeper and deeper, she began to believe in Kong Yan's judgment.
There is a kind of tender yellow moss growing in the dark cave, the moss clings to the stone wall, like a firefly glowing faintly, Xiang Qingwu takes every step, the moss under his feet will make a crushing sound of juice exploding, that feeling makes people uncomfortable. But this moss is very fragile, and if it is touched, it will die quickly, which means that the dead moss will guide her to the forest.
Xiang Qingwu cautiously walked towards the cave along the traces of the moss that had been stepped on, the wind blowing in his face carried a slight coolness, forming a huge gap with the heat outside the cave. Xiang Qingwu noticed that the footprints on the ground were getting more and more messy, showing that Xu Lin and the others were in a hurry when they fled. After walking forward for about a stick of incense, Xiang Qingwu clearly felt that the space inside the cave began to become spacious, and he could even hear the sound of water droplets echoing. The moss suddenly began to thin, the light was faint, and the air smelled of burning.
Just as Xiang Qingwu was about to walk over to check, he suddenly heard a shout from the darkness, "Don't come here!" ”
Xiang Qingwu realized that it was Kong Yan's voice and looked around, "Where are you?" ”
Kong Yan smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I don't know where I am, it's dark all around, and I can't see the situation clearly." ”
"And how did you know I was coming?" Xiang Qingwu asked.
Kong Yan took a few quick breaths, leaned against the wet stone wall with his back against the wet stone wall, his eyes were confused, "Guess." But the tone is very determined.
Xiang Qingwu didn't continue to dwell on this question, but asked Xu Lin, "Is he still alive?" ”
Kong Yan said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was in too much of a hurry when I ran just now, and I accidentally got separated from Xu Lin, but he should still be in the cave." ”
Xiang Qingwu turned around and looked around, her hearing had become more and more acute since she arrived at Qiju Island, she could feel that Kong Yan was nearby, but because it was too dark around, she couldn't find the other party's location, "Why can't I go any further?" Xiang Qingwu asked, closing his eyes at the same time, using only his internal strength to perceive the surrounding environment.
"If I'm not mistaken, are all the glowing mosses in front of you dead?"
"Yes."
"That's right, the man was chasing me and Xu Lin at that time, and then the fire suddenly appeared, and the ashes of his dead body were blown down on the moss by the wind, so the moss was dead."
"Fire? What kind of fire, the two people outside were also burned to death by that strange fire? ”
"Well, a red fire, the size of a mung bean at first, was not noticed until it quickly became the size of an egg after it killed a man. If Xu Lin hadn't died, I'd guess it would have been the size of a basketball by now killing three people in a row. ”
Xiang Qingwu followed the sound step by step, until she walked through the pitch-black moss, only to find that there was a fork in front of her, if it wasn't for the nerves she was tensing at the moment, she would probably ignore another identical passage in such a dark environment.
