Chapter 35: Headless Flies
In the light mist, I could see the messy symbols on the stone pillar opposite. It's all a mixture of straight lines and curves, and I don't understand what that means.
"Second uncle, what did we encounter?" While watching, I asked the second uncle next to me softly.
At this time, the back of my head was still cold, and this long-lost coolness not only brought me a sense of crisis, but also a little bit of excitement......
Before the second uncle could speak, I suddenly saw a black shadow passing through the fog not far away, which disappeared in an instant, disrupting the fog and rolling into a ball.
"Be careful!" The second uncle suddenly pushed me: "Run!" Run! ”
I staggered to stabilize my body, turned my head to look, and saw that the black shadow appeared in front of the second uncle at some point, the second uncle pushed me and then turned around and ran, and the black shadow chased after me without hesitation!
Damn, what kind of evil thing is this?! It's so dark that you can't see anything clearly!
I didn't dare to think about it, and ran around several pillars for about a minute, before I stopped out of breath, leaned against a stone pillar, and gasped for air.
There was silence all around, the second uncle was gone, and the black shadow was gone. I hurriedly touched the back of my head, and it wasn't cold...... It kind of gave me a sigh of relief.
"Smack!"
Before I could catch my breath, a hand suddenly fell on my shoulder, and I screamed "ah" in fright, and turned my head to look, but it was Liang Ruoyi.
"I'll go, you're scared to death!" I looked at Liang Ruoyi with a bitter face and said.
"Is it safe?" Ice Beauty asked, glaring at me.
I touched the back of my head and nodded, "Safe, nothing." What happened just now? ”
"I didn't know just now, but let me tell you, someone has already followed us into the stone forest." Liang Ruoyi said in a low voice.
"Huh?!" I was taken aback by this: "Impossible! We have come full circle, and we have gone through so many difficulties, and there are still people who can follow us in the first place?! ”
"Look." Liang Ruoyi didn't rush to answer me, but pointed to the ground not far away.
I looked closely, and saw that there was a very clear footprint on the ground a few feet away, because there was not much wind in this place, and the ground was mostly gravel and dirt, and the footprints were very intact, and it seemed that they had just been left for a short time, and it was obvious that this footprint was not one of us in terms of size or shoes......
So, who could it be?! To be able to keep up as soon as possible, and not to show any clues before, this must be a master. A strange thought popped up in my mind: Could it be Chai Lao Wu and them? In the previous actions, Chai Lao Wu and they always appeared at critical moments, could it be because of the second uncle?!
"Hey, why did the fog start to thicken all of a sudden?!" Liang Ruoyi's voice pulled me out of my thoughts, I let out a "hmm", turned my head to look, and sure enough, in the dim environment, the fog that was originally in the air above my head began to slowly fall, and the surroundings became blurred.
"What's going on?" Inadvertently, the visibility had dropped to less than five meters, and I sat on the ground, took a few breaths, looked at Liang Ruoyi and asked.
"I don't know, the Seventh Master said, this entire Cloud Mountain is a microclimate, plus the power of heaven and earth, anyway, I don't understand......" Liang Ruoyi shrugged his shoulders and said.
"So what now? They were all scattered. I looked at the stone pillars around me with a sad face: "In this place, I can't find a sense of direction at all, and now when I get separated, it's almost a dead end." ”
"That's all!" Liang Ruoyi took a sip of me, but didn't kick me: "It's almost six o'clock in the evening, let's find a safe place to rest, ...... before"
Before the ice beauty finished speaking, she suddenly stopped, I looked up, but saw her make a silent gesture to me, I subconsciously touched the back of my head, there was no cold, and then slowly stood up and leaned against her.
"Poof!"
A few seconds later, a black shadow staggered out of the fog not far away, and one fell directly to the ground without standing firmly, and then stood up and rushed over, with a fast speed, and in the blink of an eye, it swept past me and Liang Ruoyi, and ran around two stone pillars......
"W-Who is this?!" Because the shadow was so fast, and the fog around me was getting heavier and heavier, I didn't even see the silhouette of this person clearly.
"I don't know......" Liang Ruoyi smiled wryly: "I didn't see it clearly." ”
"Just now, the second uncle also saw a black shadow, and we were separated because of the black shadow." I turned my head to look at Liang Ruoyi: "Did you see anything?" ”
Liang Ruoyi shook his head: "No, I saw those symbols in front of those stone pillars before, and I felt dizzy, everyone was stunned for a few seconds, and then they scattered together. ”
"Oh." I frowned: "Those symbols? Is it the script of the Gulpan tribe? Or something else? ”
"What can affect people's brainwaves and nerves will naturally not be ordinary words, but some kind of symbol." Liang Ruoyi said: "It was very dangerous at that time just now, if it wasn't for your second uncle pulling you away, it is estimated that you would have fallen to the ground and been delirious by now, and after a long time, you will become a ...... Who?! ”
Before Liang Ruoyi could finish speaking, his feet tapped, and his right hand took advantage of the situation to pull out the short blade, and quickly bypassed the stone pillar and rushed towards the opposite side!
I hurriedly looked over, and saw the black shadow that had disappeared before rushing out again, and when I saw Liang Ruoyi rushing over, I hurriedly stopped: "Don't!" It's me! ”
Toad?!
I looked intently, and saw that the person rushing out of the mist was five short figures, like a short round water tank, who was not the toad!
"How could it be you?" Liang Ruoyi frowned slightly, and put away the short blade: "It was you who swept past the two of us just now, right?" ”
"Hey!" The toad smiled, the abscess on his face was instantly squeezed by the laughing muscles, and the yellow, white and red flowed out, which made people really unbearable to look at directly, but he took out a tissue from the small bag next to him and wiped it as if he was fine: "It's me!" I just met an evil creature over there, Huang Bala, I didn't dare to fight hard by myself, so I hurriedly fled, ran a few steps and stumbled a little, so I didn't see you clearly, and when I ran away and came back to my senses, I didn't hurry back again. ”
Liang Ruoyi answered, didn't speak again, walked back to look at me and said, "Let's go, let's take advantage of the fact that the sky is not completely dark, let's see if we can find a relatively safe place to rest tonight." ”
I didn't like to deal with the toad, and it was good that I didn't kill him. Ignoring him, he picked up his backpack and followed Liang Ruoyi towards the so-called "front".
The toad didn't care about our attitude at all, and followed behind us step by step: "Hey, boy, tell me what happened to us before?" ”
I didn't look back, for fear of being frightened by that face: "How do I know, I was stunned, if it wasn't for the second uncle who dragged me out, I would have been ruined there!" ”
"Oops!" The toad hurriedly walked two steps and came up: "I said, you kid really should learn something, otherwise, in the future, the Gu family will be passed on to you, but it will be wasted!" ”
"College students, they learn quickly." Liang Ruoyi glanced at the toad with some impatience: "You don't need to worry about an outsider here!" ”
I sneered at the toad, but there were no words, the toad was bored with himself, his face showed a stupid look, he glanced at Liang Ruoyi, snorted coldly, and stopped talking.
In fact, sometimes I really feel that I can't stand the toad, of course, because my father can't stand him. If it weren't for his father experimenting on him, it is estimated that he would not be like this, and he may have been married and had children......
The three of us walked like headless flies for more than ten minutes, the sky was completely dark, the fog was getting heavier and heavier, and the flashlight on our wrists was lit, and the visibility was only five or six meters, which was still vague.
Along the way, we never met anyone else, according to what the Seventh Master said, this stone forest is likely to be circular, and the center of the middle circle is the Nanpan Shrine, so thinking about it, the direction we are walking in now is even more impossible to judge.
"Let's rest here." We walked for a while, and I couldn't help it, so I sat down against a stone pillar: "You see, the fog is getting heavier and heavier, and the distance between the two stone pillars is just over a foot long, but now, I can only see a general outline, and if I go any further, I am afraid that there will be danger......"
"Well, it's past six o'clock, let's rest."
Liang Ruoyi took the flashlight and shone it around, and the toad smiled: "Okay, don't worry so much, this stone forest is full of stone pillars, if you can find something else, then we will be rich!" ”
Liang Ruoyi turned his head and glanced at the toad, too lazy to take care of him, took out some food from his backpack, looked around, there was nothing to make a fire, and picked out some fast food and distributed it to us.
There are no pigs' heads, and the food is not so abundant, but I am a little worried about them, and if they are scattered in this environment, it will be really difficult to deal with evil things......
The three of them hastily ate dinner in silence, and Liang Ruoyi took out those various instruments from his backpack with some reluctance and fiddled with them, and finally reluctantly put them back. I turned on my phone, and there was no signal either, because the battery was running out, so I didn't dare to play anything, but I just glanced at the photos of Xiaoxiao on the screensaver a few times, and then turned it off again.
"Rest, you two are night owls, when you want to sleep, wake me up, I'll keep vigil." After Liang Ruoyi finished speaking, he put on a coat and leaned on a stone pillar and fell asleep.
I sighed lightly, tired, but not sleepy, and looked around boredly, the fog was getting thicker and thicker, and the stone pillars on the opposite side began to blur. When I turned my head to look at the toad on the other side of the stone pillar, my brow furrowed!
