Chapter 12: Flying Shadows in the Mist

"They're all gone!" It took me a long time to find this excuse to reluctantly comfort everyone, but it was okay not to say it, and when I said this, another association appeared.

If there are no insects and birds, is it inhabited by something that all insects and birds are afraid of?

For this sudden speculation, no one dared to say anything, maybe this kind of quiet, is also a good thing, at least let us be safe for the time being.

But what does this mean for the time being? Is it a photographable disaster, or an unknown death.

As the mist faded, we gathered together and looked around, but we still didn't find anything.

Then Chen Haidong broke the silence, "Let's get out of here quickly, even if there is any unknown creature, it hasn't appeared now, let's not think about it, scare ourselves." ”

He is not a member of the armed police, and his psychological quality is excellent, but this decision to take one step at a time is not a long-term solution.

Seeing that there was really no movement, we had to continue on our way, but except for Dongfang, who was in charge of observing Kun Tiandou, all of us didn't have the heart to think about anything, and our eyes kept wandering around, for fear that something would suddenly crawl out of the jungle.

Before coming, Dong Shuchen had explained that there were many insects here, so just in case, we sprinkled some powder he left for us on our bodies.

Looking at the trees, I held the short knife left by Liu Ran for self-protection in my hand, step by step, and unintentionally turned my head sideways, and a flying shadow flashed in my afterglow.

Although it was only for a moment, I could still feel the presence of the thing, and immediately looked away—in the water, the flying shadow just now flashed through the water.

I subconsciously stopped, holding the knife in my right hand, staring at the water without moving, and I watched for more than ten seconds, and I didn't see anything rushing over.

"What are you doing?" Seeing that I stopped, Lao Zhong stared nervously at the water, and also turned around curiously and asked me.

"I just ......" Just as I was about to look up and answer him, the flying shadow appeared again, and glided over the water with lightning speed, so fast that it seemed that my eyes could not catch up.

"Be careful, ...... beside you," I said, and with a wave of the short knife in my hand, my wrist shot towards the point where my eyes were.

Just listen to the whoosh! There was no cry from other animals, but the old bell lowered his head, and the knife flew over his head, and finally nailed to a locust tree not far away.

"What are you doing!?" When I looked up again, the old bell asked me puzzled.

I touched my head and felt that the action I had just done was inconsiderate, but it was really just an instinctive reaction, so I was a little embarrassed about the mistake of that knife.

"Just now, I saw a flying shadow flash from the tree next to you, that's why I threw the short knife, I didn't think that my heart was unstable!"

The old bell glared at me, and was about to turn back to retrieve the short knife for me, but his movements suddenly stopped.

"Don't move, everyone!" He said this vigilantly, and then took out a dagger from his body, and flipped his wrist to scatter a layer of white light between the trees.

Before we could react to what was going on, we saw the water whizzing under the tree! Several consecutive sounds of breaking the air were heard.

Immediately, there were several black shadows that passed quickly, and the speed of the shadows was so fast that when we rushed to chase them, we only saw a wisp of afterimage.

After the black shadow flew out of the water, it quickly rushed to the top of the tree, and the old Zhong knew that it was very powerful, and walked to the side of the tree, and pulled out the short knife for me first.

As the blade was pulled out of the tree, there was a creaking sound that sounded harsh in the silence.

After the voice appeared, it quickly disappeared, just like the black shadow just now.

Taking the knife back, Lao Zhong flipped it in his hand, shook it back to me, and said be careful, and looked at it before throwing it.

I nodded, knife in hand, and looked up at the top of the tree where the shadow had disappeared, but all I saw was the obscuring leaves, and nothing else.

This thing came suddenly and went in a hurry, making us all feel helpless and even unable to guard against it.

At this time, Chen Haidong reached out and groped in his backpack, and unexpectedly took out a police 94-style pistol from it, staring at the top of the tree with his eyes like a torch.

After a long while, they still didn't move, as if the shadows had left the place, and Momono was dead.

Seeing that there was no gain, and we couldn't always spend here, we had to withdraw our attention and continue to look for direction.

Attacked by this group of unknown things, and they are so fast that we don't even have the time to react, and we can't even defend ourselves.

As I continued on my way, I asked the old bell who had just found these things, "Do you see what they are?" ”

Old Zhong frowned and thought for a moment, and finally said, "They look like a flock of black crows, but they are so fast that I can only feel them flapping their wings." But what is certain is that; They used to hide in the water, and in the woods here, the mist was thick, and with this muddy water, it would be difficult for us to detect if we were hiding in the water, unless we touched them with something else. ”

"Black crow?" I said to myself, but my eyes wandered in the mist, beware of being attacked again.

"All I can say is that because of the urgency, I don't have time to look closely at their features, I just feel like crows."

As we were saying this, we suddenly heard gunshots behind us, and we knew that it was Chen Haidong without asking, but with his experience and decisiveness, he should not shoot indiscriminately.

"What's wrong?" I turned around and walked quickly to him, and I saw him pointing his gun at a tree.

The tree wasn't really anything special, just like the surroundings, with a very thick trunk. But when I followed the muzzle of his gun and saw a bullet hole in the tree pole, I understood why he had just shot.

There was blood in the trees, which meant that he had hit something, but what was there in the jungle that could escape after being shot?

"What is it?" I withdrew my gaze and asked eagerly.

"Unlike the Flying Shadow we met before, I felt that it had flesh on its body, and it should live on land, but I felt that I had hit it, but I didn't find its body, and I didn't even hear a scream!"

"This ...... It's too impossible, isn't it? Are you sure you hit it? I was incredulous, and asked again and again.

Chen Haidong nodded, his eyes were also full of doubt.

"Maybe it was just your delusion!" Lao Zhong came over and patted Chen Haidong's body, telling him not to think about it anymore.

In the face of everything that is happening around us, we all feel uneasy and want to leave such a strange place as soon as possible.

We were engrossed in observing everything around us, but the Kun Tiandou in Dongfang's hands became less important.

Everyone stared nervously at the woods in the mist, and the place where they could see was more than ten meters away, and only with guns could they threaten those elusive things.

But looking at the gun Chen Haidong held in his hand, coupled with the discovery just now, I feel that everything here now is unreliable, as if everything we found has become unreal.

Lao Zhong comforted me not to be distracted, in such a strange place, it is also a trouble to think too much.

I shrugged, a little embarrassed to worry him, but I still couldn't let go of it, and I couldn't help but think about it.

In the quiet atmosphere, none of our hearts can be calmed, those things can dodge bullets, and I am afraid that now we have entered the trap they have set.

Finally, Dongfang, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and raised his hand to signal everyone to come.

Dongfang's mind is on this Kun Tiandou, so he doesn't have time to pay attention to the dangers that may arise around him, so all of us must pay attention to the movements around him under the condition of self-preservation.

But strange to say, the first two attacks, those flying shadows, did not hurt the east at all, and it seems that they are only aimed at us.

Liu Ran was closest to him, firstly to protect him, and secondly, to deal with those flying shadows who suddenly attacked, her skills and speed were the fastest among us, so Lao Zhong asked her to follow Dongfang's side.

Speaking of this, I smiled a little wryly, I really don't know what I'm doing here, it seems that out of the five, I'm the only one who is a drag bottle.

Seeing that Dongfang had made a discovery, Liu Ran immediately beckoned everyone and followed together.

At this time, on the Kun Tiandou in Dongfang's hand, the interval of the six pointers was flat, and it seemed to be back to the way it was at the beginning, but looking at Dongfang's expression, it seemed that such a change was very unusual.

"You see," said Dongfang, pointing to the pointers on the wood, "they look the same as they were at first, as if we were back in the valley." But the location represented by the Four Directions has changed, and if nothing goes wrong, the place where we are now is located in the very center of this basin. ”

"All the magnetic fields around each other balance each other, but there is a feng shui Jedi hidden. Looking at the difference in this pointer, the position of the original heaven is descending to the east, like the alternation of the sun and the moon on the horizon, while the hand representing the earth rises from the west. ”

"This is a kind of fortune, the surrounding magnetic field is like water, imprisoned in this circle, by the power of the Liuhe, constantly flowing in it, changing constantly!"

"This is? Time? I asked hesitantly.

Dongfang nodded first, then shook his head, "Yes and no, time is around everyone, but we can't see them." The way to discover them is through clocks, as well as the celestial phases, the four seasons of wind and rain, spring and autumn, and external objects as references. ”

"Just like this mountain, it may not exist forever, but we can start by querying the time of its existence, calculate the age of the mountain, and finally use the mountain as a comparison to calculate the time we have lived."

"The things that reincarnate in reincarnation record time, so that the things that find them become various forms, all kinds of substances, but the laws that are found and created are different."

I felt a little confused by his words, so I immediately stopped him and continued to tell, "Let's talk about the point, is the place we are looking for here, and where is the entrance?" ”

Hearing me interrupt him, Dongfang coughed lightly, and then said, "Looking at the luck around you, the place where the final gathering place must be the location of the middle palace that has been nourished, that is, where we are." Therefore, the burial place should also be here, but the entrance is not easy to find, after all, I am not a feng shui master, and I don't know how to look at the doorway of the mountain and the cave, and it is not easy to use this Kun Tiandou to find this place in such a large area. ”

I felt a little frustrated when I heard him say this, and I looked a few meters away, where there was a white mist, and the visibility was already so low that even we couldn't take care of ourselves, and it was not easy to find the entrance.

That being said, Lao Zhong still arranged for everyone to look for it, after all, it was determined by Kun Tiandou, and according to Dongfang, the approximate entrance was within ten meters of the vicinity.

The boundary wasn't very large, and we slowly searched along the high slopes, where the dirt was damp and there were unidentified flying shadows hiding in the mist, so we had to be careful with every step.

Walking down the high slope, I stepped into the mud with one foot, a deep footprint was imprinted in the mud, and it was difficult to pull out the second step.

In the mist, I was looking down when I suddenly heard a noise in my ears, and immediately looked up.

It's good not to look at it, but when we look at it, we can see a large black mass flying over our heads like a dark cloud.

I yelled badly, and walked forward in a panic, but the more panicked I was, the more unstable my feet became, coupled with the thick mud here, I didn't take a few steps before I felt that my feet were slipping, my center of gravity shifted instantly, and my hands were scratching in the air, but I still didn't catch anything.

I subconsciously closed my eyes with the half-foot-thick mud under my feet, but it was not contact with the ground or the mud that followed.

As my feet slided, I felt like I was being carried into a deep pit by a mudflow.

I closed my eyes in panic and couldn't see what was going on, but when I opened them again, I saw that it was pitch black around me, and only a faint light shot from the top of my head.

It was the light that seeped through the mist, and I struggled to get closer to the light as I shook off the mud on my body.

"Old clock?! Come down! I walked out into the light and shouted at the entrance of the cave.

No one answered me, I vaguely heard the sound of flapping wings, maybe the black birds hadn't left yet?

I shouted for fear of attracting them, so I stopped for a moment and waited for the birds to leave, and then tried to inform them.

After making up my mind, I shook off the mud from my body, took advantage of the sky above my head, took a flashlight out of my backpack, turned it on, and shone it around.

This should be the entrance we are looking for, under the flashlight, this is a space of about ten square meters, in addition to the mud that fell with me, I also found a few small copper objects here.

When I got closer, I saw that they were about the size of backgammon, round in shape, with an ancient inscription faintly engraved on them.

It may have been brought out of the tomb, but I don't know who it was.
