Chapter 176: Black-Haired Monster
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the baby bones on the stone road, and suddenly remembered the eunuch he met in the village in front of him to steal the baby, the village had lost several children one after another, could it be that these bones in front of him were those missing babies?
With such suspicions, Wu Zhiyuan squatted down again and carefully checked the skeletons on the ground, the bones of these babies were no longer an inch, only miserable white bones remained, as if they had been dead for a long time, and they were not neatly arranged. Wu Zhiyuan observed carefully and found that the skeletons of these bones were incomplete, most of them were incomplete, and some even had different heads.
"What's going on?" Wu Zhiyuan secretly said in his heart, could it be that these babies were divided into corpses after they died? Thinking like this, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly felt that this was very cruel, and he didn't dare to continue to look at it directly.
Just when he turned his head to look away, he suddenly found that the long bone closest to his feet seemed to be broken, he was startled, reached out and picked up the bone, put it in front of his eyes, this bone was really broken into two pieces from the middle, and the other section was gone, and what was even more shocking was that Wu Zhiyuan found several clear tooth marks on this broken bone!
He couldn't help but be surprised by this discovery, there were tooth marks on his bones, could it be that these babies were eaten by something?
In order to verify his point of view, Wu Zhiyuan then picked up several other bones around him, and sure enough, he found that each bone had extremely clear tooth marks, according to the bite marks, it was definitely not done by humans, because there were clearly two deep marks on them, more like those left by a carnivore.
Wu Zhiyuan's mind turned rapidly, filtering all the possibilities, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this cave was extremely dangerous, and now that the bones were in front of him, it was very likely that the beast that ate the baby was also nearby.
Thinking like this, Wu Zhiyuan slowly stood up, planning to turn around and return to the way she came, there are many holes in this cave, and the Moon Shadow Fuxian may not have entered this cave at all, otherwise she would definitely see the scene in front of her and realize the danger, and return the same way.
Wu Zhiyuan looked around, although the width of this cave was large, it was extremely empty, and the things within one zhang could be seen quite clearly, except for the rushing stream on the left, there was no abnormal movement.
At this moment, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly felt as if something was standing behind him, and the breath exhaled by the thing when he gasped happened to blow on the back of his head.
What's in the back? Wu Zhiyuan was horrified in his heart, only to feel that the thing behind him was wheezing very heavily, and it was extremely urgent, but it seemed to suddenly fall from the sky, and then came behind Wu Zhiyuan at once, otherwise Wu Zhiyuan would not have been able to notice it at all.
He concluded that the thing behind him was definitely not Moon Shadow Fuxian, because although Moon Shadow Fuxian's figure was tall, his nose was not even the back of Wu Zhiyuan's head after standing upright, and the unknown thing behind him seemed to be about the same height as Wu Zhiyuan.
Now it seems that it is very likely that that thing was already standing behind Wu Zhiyuan when he squatted down, but it was a bit unbelievable that it could get close to him silently.
Wu Zhiyuan held the long sword in his hand tightly, beads of sweat began to appear in his palms, and now he had two choices, one was to run directly forward, and the other was to draw the sword and turn around to stab the thing behind him!
It was just a moment of lightning and fire, Wu Zhiyuan made a decision, he pulled out his sword violently, turned around at the same time, and didn't see what was behind him, he raised his long sword and stabbed it violently.
The sword stabbed down, Wu Zhiyuan didn't feel any resistance, he fixed his eyes and saw a monster with black hair standing in front of him, the monster's arms were extremely short, but the legs were very long, the head was as big as a fight, the face was black, and there was only a face without hair on the whole body. At this time, he was staring at Wu Zhiyuan with eyes as big as bull's eyes, and the long sword in Wu Zhiyuan's hand was actually pierced under its armpit.
didn't have time to think about it, Wu Zhiyuan didn't have time to draw his sword at all, he kicked at the monster, and then turned around and ran, only to hear the monster let out a muffled roar, and then the long sword "clattered" and fell to the ground, followed by a few "clicks" of feet stepping on the bones, Wu Zhiyuan secretly screamed that it was not good, it seemed that the monster was chasing after him.
Wu Zhiyuan was no longer able to run his vitality, so he could only rely on brute force to run wildly, he ran along the crooked stone road for several kilometers in one breath, and suddenly found that there was a fork in front of him, a total of seven or eight holes in front of him, without thinking too much, Wu Zhiyuan rushed into the nearest hole to him.
All the walls of the cave here glow faintly blue, and it is difficult to see things in the cave.
After running for a long time, Wu Zhiyuan felt that he was a little overwhelmed, he stopped and looked back, the monster did not follow, so he leaned on the stone wall and gasped for breath, and after a long time, he slowly recovered.
It is impossible to go backwards, the monster may catch up at any time, and the current situation is like a headless fly for Wu Zhiyuan, who can only be hit by mistake. Without the long sword of the Moon Shadow Fuxian, Wu Zhiyuan took down the peachwood sword behind him, which could also be used for self-defense.
Holding the peachwood sword in his hand, Wu Zhiyuan walked forward cautiously, while constantly taking into account the situation in front of and behind him, the danger in this hole has been determined, and he must be more careful.
After about half a stick of incense, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly saw a white thing not far from the stone road in front of him, and he was puzzled, so he cautiously moved forward against the stone wall.
When his eyes could see the white thing clearly, Wu Zhiyuan was suddenly taken aback, he couldn't believe his eyes, because the white thing in front of him was actually a pile of white bones!
Wu Zhiyuan stepped forward with a strong concentration, but before he walked in front of the white bones, he tripped over something under his feet, and when he looked down, it was actually the long sword of the Moon Shadow Fuxian!
Wu Zhiyuan's heart couldn't help but let out an "ah", this long sword is actually here, so isn't this piece of white bone the bones of those babies found just now, and isn't this place the place where you met that black-haired monster?
Wu Zhiyuan's heart suddenly burst into a chill, how could this be? Could it be that I have come full circle and returned to the same place?
I can't stay here for a long time, Wu Zhiyuan quietly picked up the long sword on the ground, turned around and walked back, just took a few steps and felt that something was not right, the black-haired monster was chasing him just now, if he went back at this time, it was very likely that he would collide with the black-haired monster.
Thinking like this, Wu Zhiyuan turned around and walked forward again, and at the same time felt apprehensive in his heart, hoping that the monster would not turn back.
Along the way, Wu Zhiyuan was very cautious, but he did not find the black-haired monster again.
When he came to the fork again, Wu Zhiyuan did not rashly choose a hole to enter, but looked up at this fork, looking for the hole where he jumped from the ground at that time.
