Xia Beifeng carried the blood-stained thing and shook it a few times.

A trail of blood fell to the ground.

"Like a fox?" Ning Feng leaned over to take a look at it and poked it a few times with his finger: "It's dead." ”

The fox had its eyes closed, most of its snow-white fur was dyed red, and it swayed its body with Ning Feng's movements, unresponsive.

"How can there be a fox in this place?" Ning Feng raised his head suspiciously, looking at the vault above: "The top is sealed, where did it fall from?" ”

Xia Beifeng put the fox on the ground, pressed his fingers on what should be his heart, and closed his eyes to feel it.

"Not dead yet." He whispered and glanced back at Shen Qingge.

"Are you bored, you guys are boring, you can watch a beast on the road for so long." Xu Tianle rolled his eyes impatiently: "Can't you hurry up, don't waste time here?" ”

"Miss Xu's words are not quite right."

Ning Feng pointed to the fox on the ground and said solemnly: "The wound on this thing's body is obviously a knife wound, and it is still fresh. This means that the person who injured it was just around here, and we don't know if that person is friend or foe, or it is better not to act rashly. ”

"Even if what you say makes sense, then what should we do now, being scared away by a dead fox?"

"It's not that you don't dare to go, it's that you should be careful."

Xu Tianle once again showed a sarcastic expression.

Shen Qingge stepped forward, stood where the fox had just fallen, and looked up for a while.

She stretched out the spear in her hand and reached upwards.

The vault was so high that even as she stood on her tiptoes and stumbled hard, she was still some distance from the stone bricks at the top.

"How?" Xia Beifeng watched her movements and asked in a low voice, "Is there something on it?" ”

"Nothing." Shen Qingge withdrew the gun, lowered his head and kicked the soft~ soft fox: "Where did this thing fall from?" ”

Ning Feng's face became even more ugly when he heard this, he looked at the fox on the ground cautiously, and after holding it for a long time, he let out a sigh.

"Alas! If only the fox could talk, at least tell us who else is in there. ”

It's hard to say this, maybe it will be able to say a few words in a while.

Xia Beifeng stared down at the fox at his feet, reached out and pulled open his backpack.

"I said, you're scared silly, how can a fox talk." Xu Tianle glanced at Ning Feng contemptuously: "You think it's the fox fairy you worship in your hometown!" Burning incense can come out to solve your problems. ”

"You can't say that." Ning Feng turned his head to Xu Tianle and said, "There are some things that you still have to believe. Especially dry ~ our line, although the courage is greater than the average person, but the things that have been seen are more than the average person, for this kind of legend, myth or something, we still have to respect a little. ”

"How?" Xu Tianle craned his neck and asked, "Could it be that you have really seen a talking fox fairy?" ”

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but ......"

"If you haven't seen it, you can't get it." Xu Tianle interrupted Ning Feng's words, and said impatiently: "You don't have to give me all that mess, you just say that we still have to stay here for a long time in order to break the fox all the time." ”

"Uh......"

Ning Feng was unexpectedly stuck for a while when she asked, he lowered his head and asked Xia Beifeng for help with his eyes.

Xia Beifeng was facing away from him, half-kneeling on the ground, holding a roll of bandages in his hand, wrapping around the fox's body.

Qu Yue held a bottle of liquor, sat beside him, nervously watching his movements, and his eyes were full of hazy moisture.

"Yo, you guys are so kind-hearted, even the small animals on the side of the road have to be saved." Xu Tianle saw that Ning Feng didn't answer her question, so he turned his gun and began to sneer at Xia Beifeng: "I think if you don't look back, you can learn from your uncle to wash his hands." Go to a pet store to find a job, feed cats and dogs every day, just right for you. ”

"Miss Xu Tianle, did you misunderstand something. When did I say I did this? ”

Xia Bei retorted without raising his head: "I only said that I would come down with you and help you a little, but I never said that I was here to fight." Then again, it seems that no one here thinks I'm with you except you. ”

"I ......" Xu Tianyang raised a hand and said cautiously: "I also thought you were our peer." ”

As he spoke, his eyes were glued to the ground, and one hand was clenched into a fist, like a schoolboy who had made a mistake and was waiting for criticism from his teachers and parents.

Xia Beifeng: "......"

He had forgotten that there was such a person.

"Then what the hell are you here for!" Xu Tianle asked in a shrieked voice, "Who are you!" What a purpose! ”

"We—"

Shen Qingge appeared behind Xu Tianle silently at some point, she covered Xu Tianle's mouth with one hand, dragged a long voice to speak in her ear, put her index finger on her lips and clicked twice.

"Shhhhh

Xu Tianle was taken aback by her, but his panic was immediately covered by anger. She writhed her body vigorously, trying to break free from Shen Qingge's control, and at the same time did not forget to express her anger with her eyes.

"Uh-huh

The girl whose mouth was covered made a few meaningless syllables, which made several men feel a little embarrassed to hear it.

I don't blame them for thinking too much, the main thing is that Xu Tianle's current voice and movements are indeed a bit ......

"The two of us are actually here to slay demons."

Shen Qingge smiled and put it in Xu Tianle's ear to finish saying this sentence, and glanced at Xu He meaningfully.

"Boss Xu, your apprentice is really a little too noisy. I'll let her quiet for a while, you don't mind. ”

Xu Heleng paused for a moment, and then said with a complicated expression: "I don't mind." ”

"You can't mind, I won't respect your opinion anyway."

Shen Qingge let go of his hand, and his index and middle fingers rose together, sliding down Xu Tianle's lips, sliding over her chin, and finally resting on her neck.

Xu Tianle stood motionless, watching her movements, with a frightened expression in his eyes.

"Be quiet, don't make noise, don't make noise, and don't always want to shout." Shen Qingge's fingers slid gently around her throat, and her voice was slow and smiling, but it was full of threat: "If you don't make trouble, it may be fine in half an hour." If you want to fool around, I can't guarantee how long you'll be fine...... Maybe it won't get better for the rest of your life. ”

After saying this, she withdrew her fingers from Xu Tianle's neck, turned around and walked towards Xia Beifeng.

"Xiaobei, is the little fox you picked up wrapped, let's leave after wrapping it."

Xu Tianle regained control of his body at this time. She looked at Xu Tianyang and opened her mouth, but she didn't make any sound.

Xia Beifeng fastened the bandages on the fox's body, put the rest of the wine and bandages back in his bag, and then looked up and nodded at Shen Qingge.

"Okay, are you going to hold it?"

Shen Qingge looked down at the fox held by him in both hands, shook his head decisively, and pointed to Qu Yue beside him.

"Let's let this little sister who is full of love at first glance hug, I don't have time."

Xia Beifeng immediately turned his head to look at Qu Yue.

"Yes."

Qu Yue nodded twice, then bit her lip, and whispered, "It won't die." ”

"Probably not, this guy has a big life, you just need to be careful not to drop it."

Xia Beifeng stood up, put the fox in Qu Yue's arms, and nodded at Ning Feng.

"Alright, let's move on. But everyone be careful, there may not be anyone or anything in front of you, once you find something wrong, you must tell me as soon as possible. ”

"Otherwise, we won't be able to help you if you are dragged away by the ghosts."

Shen Qingge put the gun on his shoulder, as if adding a sentence leisurely, but the expression on his face was very serious.

Xu Tianle covered his throat, looked at Xu Tianyang with tears in his eyes, and kept opening his mouth to say something.

It's a pity that I still can't make any sound.

She worked hard for a long time, and finally reluctantly accepted that she needed to "be quiet for a while", and began to stare at Shen Qingge's back tightly, with a gritted tooth expression.

"Oh, by the way, that little sister Xu Tianle who is chattering." Shen Qingge took two steps, as if he remembered something, looked back at Xu Tianle, and said kindly: "Don't always scold me in your heart, I can hear it." ”

Xu Tianle immediately turned his head and pretended to have been studying the murals around him.

Shen Qingge spread his hands at Xu He, turned around and continued to walk forward.

The sound of footsteps constantly echoes in the empty corridors, and the murals around them change one by one, showing people the same content.

Xia Beifeng suddenly stopped near a mural.

"Xiaobei, what's wrong with you?" Shen Qingge also stopped with him and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with this painting?" ”

"Not much...... I just feel ......."

He reached out and touched the mural in front of him.

"Don't you think this painting is a little different?"

"Is there one?" Shen Qingge approached the mural and looked at it for a while, then shook his head: "I don't see it, what's different." ”

"The murals on this wall are basically depicting sacrifices and the like. Although there are some others, they do not occupy a large area. If these things are used to record any major events, then the importance of this event to the people at the time should be distinguished according to the area of the mural. ”

"That's right." Ning Feng also came over, squinted his eyes and approached the mural pointed by Xia Beifeng, and observed for a while.

"I seem to ...... Kind of understand what you're trying to say. Ning Feng gestured at the wall and said uncertainly: "The area of this painting seems to be the largest I have seen along the way." ”

Xia Beifeng nodded and continued: "Actually, I have been observing these things, but I have found some rules, although they all represent the content of the sacrifice, the size of these murals is also different, it seems that the sacrifice held for the three reasons of sowing and harvesting every year, and the occasional war is the most large, and the blood sacrifice of slaves will be killed during the war." ”

He looked away from the mural and said with a serious expression: "But they all have a unified feature - the day of sacrifice is chosen on a sunny day. ”

As he spoke, he walked over to a smaller mural next to him and pointed to a red circle on it.

"Oh, I see!" Ning Feng smashed his palm with his fist, and stared at the mural in front of him with sudden realization: "Only on this painting, it's not a sunny day." ”

When everyone heard this, they all came over and looked at the mural together.

Instead of the sun, the painting was covered with a vague grayish-white color.

"This picture, it looks like it's snowing?" Shen Qingge turned his head to look at Xia Beifeng: "What do you mean, a sacrificial ceremony was held on a snowy day, and so many people were killed?" What's wrong? ”

"It's supposed to be a snow disaster." Xia Beifeng returned to the same place, pointed to the location of the sacrifice and said to her: "The number of sacrifices is also too much, more than the previous large-scale wars. I think there was a large-scale snow disaster. ”

"And then they're killing people here, begging God to stop the snow, right?" Shen Qingge nodded: "It doesn't sound like a big problem, do you need such a fuss?" ”

"Yes." Xia Beifeng nodded solemnly: "Because this is the last painting, if you go further, you will see the mural we saw when we first walked in." ”

"You're saying they didn't carry the blizzard, which led to the death of them all?" Ning Feng didn't react a little, and stretched out his hand to make a "stop" gesture: "You wait, I'll ...... slowly How do you know this is the last one, and what does it mean to see the picture when you come in, and what does that mean? ”

"It's literal." Shen Qingge said indifferently: "What he means is that without you noticing, we have actually gone around here twice. ”

"Oh, no wonder." Ning Feng didn't seem surprised, or he was numb from the successive accidents: "I said how did we walk for so long, according to my previous estimate, this place can be considered the limit of an hour's walk." ”

"Did you estimate it before?" Xia Beifeng looked at him with some curiosity: "How did you estimate it?" ”

"Aze judged the scope of the tomb, and we will speculate on the general layout below according to the scope he speculated and some of the things we got from Boss Xu before."

"So when you come across this situation that is clearly out of plan, you never wonder if we're going the wrong way?" Shen Qingge was a little surprised: "Can you be a little more professional, hey!" ”

"There is a little bit of suspicion, but our speculation can only help us narrow down and reduce casualties. If it's not what I imagined, for example, if the corridor is diagonally down, it can still happen. Besides, what's the use of doubting it, it's already in this kind of situation, even if you turn back, it's useless. ”

Xia Beifeng accepted his explanation, turned his head again, and rubbed a few times on the mural he felt was problematic.

His fingers ran over the sacrifice sitting on the high platform on the screen, and suddenly the wall felt a little hot,

"What's that?" He whispered to himself and beckoned to Shen Qingge: "You come to see this, something is not right." ”

"What's wrong again?"

Shen Qingge walked over impatiently.

"Seems to be a little ......"

Before Xia Beifeng finished speaking, under the gaze of everyone, he was dragged into the wall by a human hand sticking out of the wall and disappeared.

Shen Qingge stretched out one hand in the air, looking at the scene in front of him in amazement.

"I'm not dazzled, is he, like Aze, into the wall?" Ning Feng's small voice sounded in the corridor, asking the question in everyone's hearts.

Shen Qingge reached out and touched the wall.

A piece of cold and hard. (To be continued.) )
