Chapter Forty-Nine: The White Face of Terror
Moon Shadow Fuxian walked ahead and looked at the cliffs very carefully, because if there was an exit, this was the most likely place to appear. But when I went to the easternmost part of the valley, I found no way out, and the valley was completely closed off on all sides.
Moon Shadow Fuxian sighed and looked at the cliff to the north, Wu Zhiyuan looked at her pretty face, under the long eyelashes, her eyes were clear, beads of sweat oozed from the bridge of her firm nose, and her snow-white skin revealed a noble and inviolable temperament, Wu Zhiyuan was fascinated again.
Moon Shadow Fuxian retracted his gaze, and suddenly found a few strange trees not far away, with a curious expression on his face, he turned around and walked towards those strange trees.
Wu Zhiyuan observed carefully and found that the branches of these trees were bent and intertwined, and two of them even grew together in a bend. All of them are more than one person tall, but they have large flowers that do not match their height, and the petals are pink and bright, the size of a lamp, and each flower has a bright green fruit in its heart.
"This tree...... Questions? Wu Zhiyuan looked at the Moon Shadow Fuxian strangely and asked.
Moon Shadow Fairy ignored him, and just stood in front of the tree for a moment, then skirted the waterhole and walked west along the cliff to the north.
Wu Zhiyuan looked at the fruit in the flower, and followed the Moon Shadow Fuxian in confusion.
Wu Zhiyuan has never seen or heard of this kind of tree, and within the scope of his knowledge, it generally bears fruit after the flower, and he has never heard of a flower that bears fruit when it blooms. He was also puzzled by this, and he expected that the Moon Shadow Fuxian was also curious because of this question.
The yin tree essence flowers at the bottom of the cliff in the north grew more luxuriantly, Wu Zhiyuan covered his nose with his sleeve as he walked, for fear of inhaling its fragrance again and thinking in a trance, the strange thing was that the Moon Shadow Fuxian walked in front, but he did not shy away from it, as if he was not afraid of this fragrance.
Wu Zhiyuan was puzzled, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he could only follow behind the Moon Shadow Fuxian and look around to check the exit.
Walking all the way to the westernmost section, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly found that there seemed to be a hole in front of him, and he was overjoyed.
"Look, there's a hole up ahead." Wu Zhiyuan shouted.
Moon Shadow stroked the immortal's body for a moment, and then walked over quickly, but only walked to the entrance of the cave, and then stopped, with a disappointed look on his face.
Wu Zhiyuan walked closer and took a look, it turned out that this was just a cave, the cave was very shallow, and you could see the end of the inside when you stood outside.
"It seems that this place is completely closed and there is no way out." Wu Zhiyuan sat on the ground in frustration.
Moon Shadow Fuxian looked at him, his expression slightly depressed, and raised his head to look around the sky, the disappointment on his face at a glance. After staring for a long time, she squatted down and silently put her mouth between her knees, very helpless.
Wu Zhiyuan didn't expect that a domineering and fierce woman like her would also show weakness sometimes, and a burst of pity surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but want to go forward and comfort a few words, but he didn't know where to start. The two of them were silent, and time slipped by little by little.
The so-called no Jiazi in the mountains, the cold does not know the year, it means that the people live in the mountains for a long time to isolate the world, and forget the time, which also means that people live in the mountains, and the concept of the rising and setting of the sun and the moon is very vague. When Wu Zhiyuan chased the Moon Shadow Fuxian to this mountain, the sky was just bright, and now that they were at the bottom of this valley, the two of them didn't know how long the time had passed, but they felt that the sky was getting darker and darker, almost dusk.
"Why are you going to kill those people?" Wu Zhiyuan broke the silence and asked questions.
"I didn't kill them." Moon Shadow Fuxian replied lightly.
"But I saw you stab your husband in the heart with a knife, and the couple in Delhi, how do you explain it?" Wu Zhiyuan asked with a straight face, his emotions were not excited at this time, because in this situation, there was no need to fight for this matter, he just wanted to know the truth of the Dao.
"I don't want to explain, especially to your simple-minded people." Moon Shadow Fuxian glanced at Wu Zhiyuan coldly, with resentment and anger in his eyes.
The resentment is that the culprit who caused the current situation is Wu Zhiyuan, if he hadn't chased after him, he wouldn't have fallen into the cliff and valley, and the annoyance was that Wu Zhiyuan seemed to be ghostly, always appearing at the right time to destroy his own things.
Wu Zhiyuan stared at the Moon Shadow Fuxian, and there was nothing he could do about her answer. After being silent for a long time, Wu Zhiyuan stood up and patted the dirt on his buttocks, and the clothes on his body were almost dry at this time.
"Sleep in a cave tonight." After speaking, Wu Zhiyuan got up and walked towards the waterhole. The bluestone by the pond is very clean, just enough for one person to lie down.
Moon Shadow Fuxian looked at Wu Zhiyuan's back, and a trace of gratitude was born in his heart.
Wu Zhiyuan was lying on the bluestone, his head resting on his hands, and he could just see the Moon Shadow Fuxian who was still sitting on his knees at the entrance of the cave, looking at her weak demeanor, and then thinking of the situation when she killed someone, Wu Zhiyuan's heart flashed with wisps of complicated feelings, and he simply turned around and lay on his side, so that he could not see the figure of the Moon Shadow Fuxian.
On such a night, in such a scene, Wu Zhiyuan was not sleepy at all, he was thinking about many questions, and the most important thing he thought about was how to get out of here.
Looking around along the cliff today, it is clear that there is no exit here, and there is no food in this place, and it will not take long to starve to death. Even if you can solve the problem of food, do you have to stay in this ghost place that doesn't know the sun and the moon for the rest of your life?
The current situation is extremely unoptimistic, and the two are likely to be trapped at the bottom. How to escape is an urgent problem to be solved, and working together is the most important thing. Wu Zhiyuan didn't plan to ask Moon Shadow Fuxian about the murder again, so that the relationship between the two would only get worse and stiffer, and the hope of leaving here would be even slimmer.
Wu Zhiyuan tossed and turned, without a little sleepiness, and there was a rumbling sound in his stomach, and then he realized that he had not eaten since he entered the bottom of this valley, although it was dark early in this deep valley, but it was estimated that he would be hungry for a day.
He sat up, intending to look around for something to eat, when he suddenly remembered that there were strange flowers growing on the strange trees at the east end of the deep valley, and each flower had a green fruit growing in its heart, which did not look like poison. Wu Zhiyuan planned to go over and pick a few fruits to quench his hunger.
Wu Zhiyuan stretched out his hand to pick one of the flowers and fruits, removed the surrounding petals, put the fruit in front of his nose and smelled it, only felt that it was fragrant and the smell was extraordinary, and he couldn't help but take a bite, and suddenly felt that the taste was crisp, sweet and juicy, and he had never eaten such a delicious fruit in his life.
Wu Zhiyuan ate this fruit into his stomach in one go, and only then did he find that this fruit actually had no pit, which was really fresh. Wu Zhiyuan didn't care so much, remembering that the Moon Shadow Fuxian hadn't eaten either, so he picked a dozen fruits and wrapped them in his clothes and walked towards the cave.
When he walked to the edge of the pool, Wu Zhiyuan remembered the strange changes that occurred when the yin tree spirit flower fell to the surface of the water, and he was curious, I don't know what the reaction of the big flower of this fruit would be when it fell into the pool? So he plucked a petal from the fruit and threw it into the waterhole.
I saw that the pink petals fell on the water, causing ripples, and after the microwave, the water surface was calm, and there was nothing abnormal, Wu Zhiyuan was puzzled and a little disappointed at the same time.
Wu Zhiyuan was about to start leaving, when he suddenly found a thing floating under the water, the sky was dark at this time, but the water surface was sparkling, and he could see it clearly. He fixed his eyes and saw that it was actually a human face.
The human face was facing the water, floating and sinking about two centimeters below the surface of the water, his face was pale, not like the face of a living person, his eyes were round and open, and his eyes were motionless, as if he was staring at Wu Zhiyuan who was standing on the edge of the pool, which was very terrifying!
Wu Zhiyuan was shocked, his whole body trembled, he couldn't help but take a few steps back, and the fruit on his body also fell a few and rolled into the pool.
"There are dead people in this pool!" Wu Zhiyuan screamed in panic, and suddenly remembered the scene when he was grabbed by a hand of unknown origin when he first fell into the pool.
