To be honest, when I saw Xiao Wu's face, I was a little overwhelmed, and I didn't even dare to accept it, because I never found out that such a collegial face was actually fake.
If the feeling that Wu Yue gave me was complicated, then the feeling that this Xiao Wu gave me was unfathomable, this person, lying all the way, but what he said was like the real thing, so that you didn't doubt it and jumped into the circle willingly, and after a long time, the fox's tail was exposed, and people still didn't blush and didn't breathe to explain, and after it was over, they let you continue to follow, and there was no reason to quit halfway.
Xiao Wu saw me and Qianjue looking at him in astonishment, he immediately turned around and put on the human skin mask again, and after tidying it up, he returned to his previous appearance, although it was still the same as before, but it felt different.
"I'm scared." He asked suddenly.
"No, just a little surprised." I don't know what to say.
Qian Jue looked at her for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Your face is obviously infected with corpse poison, why don't you find someone to treat it?" ”
Xiao Wu sighed lightly and said: "Of course, ordinary corpse poison can be cured, but this female corpse has been specially treated before her death, and the corpse poison has long been unable to be analyzed by common sense, and I can save this life because I was carrying something on my body at the time, if it weren't for it, I'm afraid I would have become one of these." ”
After speaking, he pointed to the white and terrible skeletons on the ground, and then continued: "After I escaped from here, I recuperated in the cellar of the Wu Mansion in Suzhou, and later went to the United States for human skin surgery. But because my facial tissues were completely necrotic, I had to make a human skin mask to show me. ”
I didn't understand a little, but I didn't continue to ask, because I knew that everyone had their own things that they didn't want to mention, if it weren't for me and Qianjue who had been suspicious of him. And in order to prove that he really needs help, he is on our side, I think, he will not tell us so much, thinking of this, I suddenly have a sense of guilt, looking at Xiao Wu's dim eyes, I feel like an executioner, using a butcher's knife to cut open a person's heart little by little.
Xiao Wu saw that we didn't speak. So he said, "Since you don't have anything to ask, start looking." ”
I was surprised: "Looking? It's so big, you're going to have to give us a range. ”
However, Xiao Wu just shook his head, "In that case, our lives are in danger, who will pay attention to the position, I just throw it away." I guess it's not far from here. ”
I looked at him helplessly. He looked down at the place where we had just climbed up, and suddenly thought of a question, so he asked, "You just said that you found an exit and then got into it, and then escaped, do you remember where that exit was?" ”
Xiao Wu looked at the place where we came up just now with great certainty. "This is it."
I looked at Qianjue, and Qianjue said, "It's not bad, it's really it." ”
I nodded, agreed, and said, "That's all I can say." However, why did it appear here, could it be that this was once the gathering place of the Western Night King clan? ”
Qianjue shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, or was not sure.
Xiao Wu on the side was a little confused at this time, so he came up and asked, "What does this have to do with the West Night?" ”
Qian Jue didn't want to explain, just said that this is a suspended space, and the exit of this space will change with the change of the direction of the space, if the exit that Xiao Wu escaped from back then was a normal direction, then now it appears under our feet, that is to say, this space has rotated, and so on, the direction of the space has changed, and the things inside will also change, that is to say, the reason why this broken bone will look messy is because there has been a spatial transfer here, And those corpses that had already rotted and only human bones were scattered in the rotation of space, so they formed their current appearance, and the maid who was thrown away by Xiao Wu in a hurry was probably also buried in this pile of white bones.
Qianjue's analysis made me have more and more headaches, and my heart said when will I find this, so many bones, and I don't know how many people died here at that time.
Xiao Wu looked at the two of us with an ugly face, and he himself knew how huge this project was, but there was no shortcut.
We began to rummage in the broken bones, these bones are not big, they are all young women, and after I turned over some bones, there are still layers of bones underneath, as if they will never see the bottom, I straightened my waist, and said in my heart that if I continue to look for it, the end of the world may not be found, so I stopped and asked Xiao Wu, "You think about it carefully, give us a general direction, let's find it like this, it's really not a way." ”
Xiao Wu looked dazed, "I really don't know, I just know that I was very weak at the time, I didn't have much strength, and it must still be not far away, or we can look around this exit." ”
As soon as I heard it, I immediately came to my senses, "That's it, I said there will be clues, you kid have to think more, your words will save us a lot of time." ”
Xiao Wu didn't have any expression, lowered his head and continued to rummage, looking at his serious expression, I could understand the importance of this maid seeking immortals map to him, just like when I knew the relationship between the Xiao family and the Huangquan Immortal Sacrifice, when I was looking for the Huangquan staff, my mood was the same.
In order to improve work efficiency, we decided to eradicate Xiao Wu's words and the measurement results of the direction, and finally planned an area, and then the three of us began to search inside from three directions, according to Xiao Wu's description, the maid looking for immortals is a scroll about half a meter wide, at that time, because of the urgency, he did not open it, and I don't know how long it is, but from the feel, it is estimated to be about three or four meters.
The dark brown scroll should be very obvious in this pile of Sensen white bones, so we were very excited after getting the news, holding a miner's lamp flashlight to find it, and I was busy for half an hour, I suddenly found that my own two-meter area was white or white in addition to it, and asked Qianjue and Xiao Wu, the answer was the same, we analyzed, although there are a lot of bones here, but to find a dark brown thing is still very agreeable, and, our three bells, Xiao Wu and Qianjue's eyesight can be compared with the cheetah, Not to mention that the eyes are a half-meter-long scroll, even a needle is estimated to not be able to look away, and I am also very eyesight, no color blindness, and I should not be wrong.
The three of them rested for a while, preparing to double the size of the search area, and just as we were cheering each other on and preparing to move on, I suddenly felt something move under my feet, and I thought it was some snake, insect, rat and ant. When I pulled out the dagger and was about to cut it in two, but I couldn't see anything strange at my feet, Qianjue saw me standing there and asked me what was wrong, I looked at my feet again, there was nothing strange except for the bones, so I said that it was okay, maybe I was dazzled.
Although Qianjue was a little confused, she didn't say anything, just asked me to be careful myself, and then lowered my head and continued to rummage. I stood for a while longer, noticed that nothing was wrong, and then continued looking.
But as soon as I took a step forward, I suddenly felt something grab my ankle, and this time, I was sure that I was not hallucinating, that someone was actually scratching my foot.
