Chapter 120: Snooping
Cheng Fei and Guo Xiaoshi said so much, but Guo Xiaoshi did not respond, which made Cheng Wei understand Guo Xiaoshi's intentions, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that I am too talkative." ”
Guo Xiaoshi shook his head and said sincerely: "My lord, thank you for your advice." ”
Seeing this, Cheng Xiao knew that Guo Xiaoshi understood what he meant, but he had his own thoughts, so he waved his hand and said, "I just found that your soul power talent is so high, I can't help but say more, don't take it to heart." ”
Fenghu and Gu Yuecheng have been listening quietly beside them, Fenghu is nothing, just glanced at Guo Xiaoshi, but Gu Yuecheng has been secretly looking at Guo Xiaoshi, as if he has been thinking carefully.
At this moment, Shen Guzhi on the other side of the cave suddenly spoke: "Boss, another red butterfly is missing." After a slight pause, before Fenghu could react, Shen Guzhi continued: "There is another one, well, four, five, six...... Ten have disappeared and are still ongoing. ”
Wind Tiger stood up, walked quickly to the entrance of the cave and looked out, the fog outside was still very heavy, and because of the darkness of the sky, the fog seemed even more eerie, and nothing could be seen.
Soon, Shen Guzhi reported: "Boss, all the red butterflies I let out are gone. ”
There were no less than a thousand red butterflies released by Shen Guzhi just now, and all of them were gone in such a short time, which made Fenghu frown fiercely: "According to the information, this place is still on the edge of the floating land, there should not be many powerful predators, and it is not dangerous, but now...... It seems that something has changed on the surface that we don't know about. ”
Guo Xiaoshi stretched out his perception, "looked" at the fog outside, and said, "Boss, the fog has become bigger again." ”
Fenghu glanced at his flag, the light of the banner could still resist the penetration of the mist, completely isolating the fog outside the cave, but without Shen Guzhi's red butterfly, they could only shrink in the cave and watch the changes, very passive.
That's when —
The fog outside the cave suddenly burst out like an arrow, and with a "shudder", it broke through the light protecting the entrance of the cave and shot straight into the cave.
Everyone was startled and wanted to make a move.
But—
Before they could react, the banner standing inside the cave had already shot out a beam of light, and it was falling right on the gray air.
"Hiss ......"
The gray gas seemed to emit a sharp cry like a ghost's cry, and the whole child paused, and then condensed into a vague, hideous beast head shape, ready to pounce, and finally dissipated helplessly, turning into nothingness.
At this moment, everyone frowned, and even Fenghu became gloomy.
Originally, there was a flag to guard, no matter what was in the fog outside the cave, it seemed that it couldn't get in, but now it's different, the gray gas just now can actually break through the light of the flag and shoot into the hole, although it was finally "wiped out" by the flag, but it makes people feel that the cave is no longer absolutely safe.
Sometimes psychological stress can be more devastating than physical damage.
Just when everyone didn't speak, the sound of "trembling" outside the entrance of the cave sounded one after another, and more than five gray gases shot in from the outside, breaking through the barrier of the flag's light and rushing into the cave.
"Boom......"
The banner reacted immediately, shooting the same number of beams, "wiping out" the ash.
However, this time, everyone could see that the banner seemed to be a little overwhelmed by the gray gas that broke through, because several gray qi rushed towards the people in the cave after entering the cave, which was already within reach.
What if the ash continues to rush in so much?
At this moment, such a thought flashed through everyone's minds, and they began to realize the danger.
Before Fenghu could speak, the male priest Cheng Cheng stood up first, and said quickly: "Let me give it a try!" ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for any more gray qi to break into the cave, walked directly to the entrance of the cave, took out a magic staff from the space equipment, recited the scriptures concentratingly, and began to cast spells.
The staff is white and wooden, and there is a golden spar at the top of the staff, which was originally inconspicuous, and I don't know what kind of scripture Cheng recited it, and in a short moment, the spar actually emitted an incomparably brilliant light, as bright as a fireball, and the golden light was like a substance, and every corner of the cave was coated with a layer of gold paint, brilliant and dazzling.
During this period, there was a light from the gray gas breaking through the hole and rushing into the cave, but as soon as it touched the golden light, it immediately melted like ice and snow, and it was completely dissolved very quickly.
Immediately, the golden light continued to spread outward, until it extended to a distance of more than ten meters outside the cave entrance, and then stopped, and it remained constant.
Because of the golden light, the fog outside the cave receded far away like a tide, as if they encountered something terrifying, they didn't dare to approach, so they retreated more than ten meters from the range shrouded in the golden light, and then stopped.
Cheng Fei saw that it was almost there, and when he was about to insert the staff in his hand into the ground, he stayed there, while he walked back to his place and sat down, and said, "It seems that my Great Dispersal Technique still has a little effect. ”
Wind Tiger asked, "How long does this spell last?" ”
"I'm afraid it will only last for half the night." After a slight pause, Cheng Hui said again: "You can cast the spell again, but the consumption of me is a bit large, and it won't help you after that, otherwise even if you go to the Blackfoot Fortress, you won't be able to light the Divine Fire Torch." ”
Fenghu thought for a while and said, "Normally, it takes six Dayu hours to go from here to Blackfoot Fortress, hmm...... We'll set off at dawn and try to speed up as fast as we can, as we should
Four or five Dayu can arrive, no problem, as long as it is over the night, tomorrow's things will be handed over to us! ”
In comparison, fog is more threatening in a dark environment, and as long as you stay up until dawn, everything feels much better.
After the dispersal of the male priest, there was nothing wrong all night.
At dawn the next day, the five-leaf team set off in full gear and quickly headed towards the destination.
Around the stone forest, although the fog still exists, it is significantly thinner than yesterday and last night.
Everyone galloped all the way, always vigilant, a little apprehensive, until the Blackfoot Fortress was in sight, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
That's when —
"Wait......"
Guo Xiaoshi suddenly stopped and looked towards the Blackfoot Fortress from a distance, with doubts in his eyes.
Everyone else also stopped, and Fenghu turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Guo Xiaoshi pointed to the Blackfoot Fortress in front of him, which was still a small black dot, and replied, "There...... It was as if someone was staring at us. ”
Perceptual ability is like this, the sensitor senses something very abstractly, not specific at all, he knows it, but it is difficult to describe it in words, and it often makes people foggy when he says it, but no one dares to ignore it.
Wind Tiger thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, let's go to Blackfoot Fortress first and see what happened." As he gave the order to continue on his way, he instructed, "Be careful, be ready to fight." ”
After saying that, he rushed in the direction of the Blackfoot Fortress first, and the others hurriedly followed, not daring to hesitate.
