Volume 1 The Land of Yama Chapter 27 Monsters in the Fog
Lantern Xiao and I went down the stone steps to the canyon in the canyon, and at this time, due to the fog, we could no longer see Kong Xue and Cai Rang Duoji. We hurried forward to catch up, but the deeper we went into the canyon, the fog became heavier, and the visibility became very low, so Lantern Xiao and I had to slow down again, and we didn't dare to get too far away from each other so as not to get separated.
Although the old lama told us that all the fog would return to the Hades Hall before dawn, we were still terrified under the thick fog.
As we went deeper, I felt that the temperature around me was getting cooler and colder, and the snow on the ground was getting more and more. We turned on the wolf's eye flashlight, but the strong flashlight was still no match for the fog, and the light didn't shine far before it dispersed in the fog.
After walking a few more steps, Lantern Xiao next to him suddenly squatted down, pointed to the ground and said, "Look at the footprints here." It is the shoe print of the mountain boots, which should be left by Kong Xue. ”
I walked over and looked, the size of the shoe prints should not be the shoe prints left by the women, and the other pair of shoe prints should be left by leather boots, so it was a pair of leather boots that Dorjee was wearing, so it seems that this should be the footprints left by them.
So we chased along their shoe prints all the way under the light of the flashlight, but chasing and chasing, I found that the situation did not seem to be right, the pace of the two people suddenly became larger, it should be that they had run, but this is not normal, at such an altitude, walking for a long time is already very physically exhausting, and then running this is obviously not going to get along with yourself.
Unless, they have a reason to run. I took the flashlight and shone it forward, but it was still foggy and I couldn't see anything, and I shone to the sides again, but I could vaguely see the black rocks.
"They seem to be in a hurry." Lantern Xiao also saw the problem, "Could it be that Kong Xue is still angry and wants to deliberately get rid of us." ”
I shook my head, "Probably not, if Miss Kong Xue is willful, so that Dorjee is not stupid, it is a matter of life safety, he will not follow Kong Xue to mess around." Let's keep up and have a look. Lantern Xiao listened and nodded.
We were a little uneasy, so we quickened our pace, and the footprints on the ground changed, and it was evident that at first they were still running in a straight line, and then the footprints began to stretch to the sides, and then they turned back again, "What is this for?" Lantern Xiao looked at the footprints on the ground and was very puzzled, "Snake running? Is this a game of eagle catching chickens? ”
I was also confused, and shook my head when I heard Lantern Xiao's question. As we continued to move forward, the footprints on the ground were even more messy, and there were several large chunks of snow on the ground that had been rubbed off, and there were even handprints left by hands on the ground.
"They seem to be flustered!" I pointed to the handprints on the ground, "There's obviously a fall here." Then keep running forward with your hands and feet. ”
"Why am I relying on this?" Lantern Xiao asked, "Nothing will happen, right?" Saying Lantern Festival, he shouted loudly: "Kong Xue! Only let Dorjee! Where are you? "The canyon is very empty, and the shouts of the Lantern Festival are mixed with the sound of the wind echoing.
"Running forward? Fluster? I suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly signaled Lantern Xiao to shut up! I quickly shone my flashlight behind us and around us. Lantern Xiao didn't quite understand, so she came over to me and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
I looked around vigilantly and said, "Kong Xuehe made Dorjee walk normally at first, and then suddenly started running, and then he almost crawled in two rolls, extremely flustered, what does this mean?" What prompted them to do so? ”
Lantern Xiao still looked at me cutely, "What? ”
"I'll go! Are you stupid? I was a little speechless, "It means that something is chasing them behind!" They're not running in a serpentine shape, they're dodging left and right! As soon as I said this, Lantern Xiao was also startled, and hurriedly shone around with a flashlight, for fear that something would suddenly rush out of the fog.
"So what are we going to do?" Lantern Xiao took out the gun in her bag again.
"Keep moving forward, Kong Xue and they may be in danger, we have to hurry over and take a look!" As I spoke, I pulled out my gun and sped up and chased after the footprints.
The fog is getting heavier and heavier, and the visibility is already less than ten meters. At the moment, this state is almost the same as in the middle of the night. There was a lot of gravel on the ground, and it was easy to fall if we were too fast, but at this time, we didn't care about that, and ran forward quickly along the messy footprints.
The fog around us makes our sense of time and space blur a lot, I don't know how long I run, I don't know how far I run, I don't know where I went, I feel as if I am shuttling through a time and space tunnel, to an unknown world, the only thing that guides us is the footprints on the ground.
But soon, there was no one way to go, and we ran here, and the footprints on the ground disappeared and we both stopped at once, "Go back!" So we turned around and looked back for the footprints.
After four or five steps back, the footprints reappeared. It seems that these footprints have ended here, indicating that Kong Xue and the others have not continued to move forward since they ran here. But where did they go?
The two of us searched around again, and the footprints in this place were particularly messy, almost footprints back and forth several layers, Lantern Xiao looked around, and his mouth opened. I immediately guessed that he must be calling Kong Xue their names again, so I hurriedly went up and grabbed him and covered his mouth. Let him swallow those words back alive.
"You're stupid, aren't you! What to shout nonsense in this place! That thing chasing Kong Xue and them might be nearby, you want to bring it in, don't you?! ”
Lantern Xiao nodded at this time. But as soon as I wanted to take my hand away, the kid's eyes suddenly widened, and he raised his flashlight and shone it at me, and I hurriedly blocked it with my hand. I was very angry at Lantern Xiao's behavior, and said in my heart: I said two words to you, and you still plan to retaliate against me! I'm TM for our good, too! So he was a little angry and pressed his hand his face, and said, "You kid is looking for death, isn't it!" This direct flashlight can temporarily blind a person for 3 minutes. You want to kill me!! I still treat you as a brother! Are you worthy of me! ”
But Lantern Xiao shook his head desperately, shone behind me with a flashlight, and motioned me to turn around and look behind me with his eyes, at this moment, I probably understood the meaning of Lantern Festival, the whole body was in cold sweat, I picked up the gun and turned my head slowly, at that moment I felt that all my hair exploded, I saw that on the cliff behind me, a black thing slowly climbed down, this thing has a slender body, has a long tail, four paws tightly grasped on the cliff, almost more than a person long, It looked like a giant gecko, I hurriedly stepped back, but my legs were a little stiff under this fright, my feet tripped over the gravel on the ground, and I stumbled backwards, and my fingers also pulled the trigger under this trip, and a series of crisp gunshots came out, but my body lost its center of gravity, and the gun lost its accuracy. Bullets hit the cliff wall, bursting out in a barrage of sparks. It's useless for me to curse myself in my heart!
Lantern Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to help me up, we hurriedly shone on the cliff, the monster has lost its trace, we are on alert, raise the flashlight to shine around, there is a strange killing machine hidden in the thick fog!
