Chapter 55: Hidden in the Forest (Happy May Day!) )
The cyan stone tablet, the ancient lonely soul, everything was beyond Long Yang's expectations. Long Yang didn't expect that the lonely soul would have a relationship with him, although he didn't know what the reason was; He didn't expect the stele to be so big or small that it could enter his left hand and disappear without a trace.
What happened in front of him was beyond Long Yang's imagination. Originally, I came to explore the stone monument and look for the traces of the black-robed man, but who would have expected to meet an ancient ghost, and it was a lonely ghost hundreds of years ago.
Zhu Hongyuan and the others have stayed away from themselves, they are going deep into the woods, exploring the secrets in the forest for themselves, what happened to them? Long Yang was shocked and walked to Tiantian's side. I was knocked unconscious by myself every day, and I haven't woken up yet, like a sleeping child, without any worries. Long Yang sat in front of Tian Tian, digesting what he had just experienced, waiting for Tian Tian to wake up.
"Long Yang, what's wrong with me?" I touched my neck every day and woke up slowly.
"Oh, you just fainted suddenly, and I'm waiting for you to wake up." Long Yang said with a smile. He didn't want Tian Tian to be frightened, so he knocked her unconscious, and now he needed a reason to prevaricate Tian Tian and hide his embarrassment.
"Has Team Zhu come back?" Tian Tian sat up from the ground and asked worriedly. In fact, she felt that she had been knocked unconscious, but she didn't have time to ask more questions at this time.
"Not yet, let's go find them together." Long Yang stretched out his hand and pulled Tian Tian up from the ground.
Every day I got up from the ground, looked up and saw the empty woods, and immediately noticed that something was unusual. "Longyang, look, the stele is gone!"
"Hey, really! I'm just sitting here watching you and not even noticing! Long Yang pretended not to know, and his face was surprised.
"What's the matter, no one will steal it, right?!" Every day he opened his mouth and screamed. Her mind was so wild that she would have thought that the stele had been stolen.
"Wouldn't it? Who can carry such a large stone tablet? Let's go to the Zhu team and them in case they have an accident. Long Yang said in his mouth, and couldn't help snickering in his heart. Tian Tian can really think about it, Long Yang can't help but admire Tian Tian's thoughts.
"Good, good. Let's go to them right away! After saying that, he turned on the flashlight in his hand and took the lead in walking towards the woods in front of him.
Tian Tian didn't suspect Long Yang, and Long Yang didn't want to tell Tian Tian the truth. It's not that Long Yang doesn't believe in Tian Tian, Long Yang doesn't want Tian Tian to know too much, and he doesn't want her to be exposed to danger.
Flashlight every day, walking in front, Long Yang followed behind, and there were only two people at this time. On weekdays, she doesn't have so many thoughts every day, but at this time, she thinks a lot and very carefully, which is the feeling she has always put in her heart. "Long Yang, do you like me?" Tian Tian asked softly.
"What did you say?" Long Yang had been pondering about the matter of the stone tablet and the lonely soul, but he didn't hear Tiantian's questioning clearly.
"No, nothing." After saying it every day, I couldn't help but speed up my steps. Her face had turned red, but fortunately it was dark, otherwise she would not have been ashamed.
"I was thinking about things just now, I'm sorry, you repeat it again." Long Yang didn't know what was wrong, seeing Tiantian leave him quickly, thinking that he had neglected Tiantian, which made her angry.
"Stupid, I didn't say anything!" Hearing Long Yang's words every day, he became more and more embarrassed and walked faster.
"Every day, you slow down." Long Yang shouted from behind.
"What a stupid dragon yang! Stupid Dragon Yang! The more I thought about it every day, the redder I became, and the more I thought about it, the more ashamed I became, and I couldn't help but speed up my pace again. Which girl doesn't have spring, let alone someone who has been with her for many years. At the beginning, Tian Tian didn't agree with Longyang and didn't believe that Longyang would be so good. Then, she met Long Yang, and she wanted to worship Long Yang as a teacher and learn from Long Yang. Then, the two became classmates, fully understood Long Yang, sympathized with him from the heart, and loved him.
Maybe it was the cover of the night that gave her courage, or maybe it was the accumulation of emotions that gave her the courage to talk and boldly show her love to Longyang every day. But Long Yang didn't hear or react, which made Tian Tian both shy and angry.
"Oops!" When I was walking fast every day, I didn't notice that I tripped and fell.
"Every day!" Long Yang quickly followed from behind and came to Tiantian's side.
"It's okay, I tripped over something." Seeing Long Yang so nervous about himself, his anger disappeared by more than half every day.
"Be careful, it's complicated here, don't leave my side." Long Yang immediately checked Tiantian's condition to prevent her from being injured.
Hearing Long Yang's warm question again, Tiantian's anger disappeared. "It's really fine, but the thing that trips me is soft, look what it is!" After speaking, he shined a flashlight behind him every day.
"Team Zhu!" The two of them saw the object behind them and screamed at the same time.
Under the flashlight was a huddled person, hands and feet curled up in the body, like a newborn baby. Shining on his face every day, his face was blue, his eyes were closed, his facial features were distorted, and he was extremely painful.
Without saying anything, Long Yang immediately pounced in front of Zhu Hongyuan and flipped it lightly to check his physical condition. When Long Yang came into contact with Zhu Hongyuan, he found that Zhu Hongyuan's body was extremely cold, without a trace of temperature.
"What's wrong with Team Zhu?" Reaching out to Zhu Hongyuan's wrist every day, he wanted to test his pulse.
"Stop!" Long Yang immediately stopped Tiantian's actions.
When he heard Long Yang's words every day, he was directly stunned. Long Yang had never spoken to himself like this, and his words were harsh, unless the situation was urgent at this time. "Team Zhu, what's wrong with Team Zhu?" Repeating her question again every day, she was frightened.
"I don't know, but it seems to be poisoned, so don't touch it." Long Yang gently put Zhu Hongyuan down.
Long Yang hugged Zhu Hongyuan's body, saying that Zhu Hongyuan was poisoned and was not allowed to contact him every day, but he was holding Zhu Hongyuan. "What about you?" Tian Tian couldn't help asking.
"I'm fine!" Long Yang replied, his brows furrowed. Judging from Zhu Hongyuan's condition, it is undoubtedly a manifestation of poisoning, and it is not an ordinary poison, it should be poisoned by corpses. Long Yang's mind flashed rapidly, filtering the knowledge he had learned. But it is not the knowledge learned in school, but the content recorded in the second volume of the "Detective Minutes".
The first volume of "Detective Minutes" was handed over to Longyang by Jin Shan himself. And the next volume was obtained on the Jin Village Mountain, and the roe deer sent the book. All of this was arranged by Jin Shan himself, and Long Yang got it from his master. In the past few years, Long Yang has read through the "Detective Minutes" and is familiar with it. When he saw Zhu Hongyuan's condition, he immediately thought of the record and judged that Zhu Hongyuan was poisoned by the corpse.
The so-called corpse poison is actually a virus produced after the corpse decomposes. There are many legends among them, some say that they were spread from animal carcasses. When animals are slaughtered, they develop feelings of fear, fear and resentment in their hearts, and enter their own bodies, and when people eat them, this toxin naturally enters people's bodies. There is also the burial science, when the ancient emperors or high-ranking officials, in order to prevent their tombs from being robbed, they will place poison on the body parts (such as the mouth) to attack the tomb robbers. There are different opinions, and it is difficult to have unity.
However, there is another explanation in the "Detective Minutes", which is more acceptable to Long Yang. To put it simply, when a person dies, the body is highly decomposed, and bacteria and viruses are easily produced. When this virus comes into contact with a person, it will quickly enter the living body through breathing or contact, destroying the physiology of normal people, and then producing lesions. What's even more terrifying is that there is a record in the "Detective Minutes" that someone can collect this kind of corpse poison and mutilate the lives of others.
Long Yang had to admire the wisdom of the ancients, who had studied such a difficult topic to this point, and faced the problem so scientifically. Long Yang admired his master, Jin Shan's ancestors, who left behind valuable knowledge that would keep him helpless in the face of difficulties.
"So what now?" Tian Tian seemed very impatient, he was worried about Zhu Hongyuan and the other two people.
"Every day, do you believe me?" Long Yang asked a sentence inexplicably.
"Of course I believe it, do you need to ask?"
"Okay, you guard Team Zhu here, wait for me to come back. Remember, don't touch him. Long Yang repeatedly advised. He wants to leave him alone every day and continue to set out on his own.
The situation in front of them cannot be chosen every day, after all, there are Yu Fei and Li Yang in front of them, and they have no news. Didn't they find out that Zhu Hongyuan was poisoned? Or did you find out, and then leave Zhu Hongyuan where he was, and choose to move on?
"No problem, you go, I'll wait for you." Tian Tian didn't hesitate, biting his lip and agreeing.
"Trust me!" Long Yang looked at Tian Tian's eyes, nodded affirmatively, and turned to leave.
The front is getting darker and darker, and ordinary people can hardly see what is around them. But Long Yang's eyesight was extraordinary, especially after his body was reforged in the Blood Realm, and he was more adapted to the environment at night. The darker the night, the more suitable it is for him, and the more convenient it is for his movements. The reason why I entered the woods at noon this time was more to take care of the four people who were traveling with me.
There's someone on the ground ahead!
When Long Yang had walked some distance, he saw a person lying there on the ground again.
"Yu Fei!" Long Yang cautiously approached and saw the faces of the people on the ground.
Yu Fei's condition was the same as Zhu Hongyuan's, he was poisoned by the corpse, and his face was pale. Time is urgent, Long Yang will fly to the side of the tree, and quickly continue to move forward. There is also a Li Yang, who may be in front.
As Long Yang advanced, he vaguely saw the light in front of him. Is there a family in the woods? Long Yang was suspicious, but did not slow down his pace.
Not a house, not a house, not a cave, but a tree hollow!
When Long Yang approached, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. A tree, no! A giant tree, almost ten meters thick, to be exact. Its roots, for some unknown reason, have become a wide dwelling. Inside, the candles are bright, the tables and chairs are complete, and it is like a meeting place.
Could this be the stronghold of the black-robed people?
But Long Yang didn't find the black-robed man, let alone Li Yang. He slowly approached the hollow of the tree, carefully observing everything in front of him, finding important clues as quickly as possible. There are two people behind Long Yang who have been poisoned by corpses, and he has a comrade Li Yang who has not been found, and he will face more and more dangers when he faces more problems.
