Chapter Forty-Three: The Gathering of Corpses
Staggered to the top of the hillside, Ruan Jianguo took out a large number of heart-burning inscriptions from his arms and put them in front of Chu Lin and the others, and hurriedly said: "Brother Chu, these are put here for you first, don't say that I have been here, I will go to the back mountain to hide first, and I will come to look for you later."
Of course Chu Lin knew what he meant, tomorrow is the deadline for the end of the assessment, and whoever puts this hot potato in his hands now is unlucky, and after he takes these inscriptions, he will definitely become the target of public criticism. It's just that I don't know who has such a thorough ability to make Ruan Jianguo hurt so much.
"Big brother, you can recuperate here, and we can take care of each other." Chu Lin asked tentatively.
Ruan Jianguo's sturdy body paused slightly, and he said without looking back: "If you are slow to die, just open your mouth." Then he walked to the back mountain without looking back.
"What now?" asked Yuan Lai.
Chu Lin said with a smile: "What else can I do, now these things are all hand-held thunder, and they will explode in their hands, and whoever asks for them will give them to whomever they want."
Yuan Lai said puzzledly: "What about us? Let's not talk about the inner door that can't be entered, we will die if we send it out, Ruan Jianguo is not a soft-hearted person."
"Here they are, don't speak". Chu Lin said hurriedly.
The group of three people went up the high slope and came to Chu Lin, one of whom was Dan Feng's eyes. The other two are strikingly similar in appearance, height, and age, and they are obviously twin brothers, both of them seem to be in their twenties, and they can come out to loot until today, and it is obviously not the first time they have participated in the assessment.
"Why? took the initiative to take it out, what about Ruan Jianguo?" Zou Daming, one of the twins, asked puzzled when he saw the large number of heart-burning inscriptions that Chu Lin had taken the initiative to put on the ground.
Chu Lin stepped forward to salute and said respectfully: "Hello senior brother, the eldest of our family has something to say, these inscriptions are filial piety to the second elder, and I hope that from now on, the well water will not interfere with the river water, and everyone will be promoted to the inner disciple together."
"Brother, if you let that guy advance, Shu Man will ......," his brother Zou Erming said eagerly.
"Shut up, I'm in measure." Zou Daming reprimanded. Then he asked, "Are these all the inscriptions?"
Chu Lin said "embarrassed": "This ...... Yes, it's all, it's all."
"Swallow and spit out, at first glance, there is something to hide, the two brothers of the Zou family, don't believe his slander" Shu Man said sharply.
Zou Daming probed forward into the void with his right hand, and with the attack of a wind and sand, Chu Lin was inexplicably pulled by a force, and in the next second, Zou Daming grabbed his neck with one hand, as long as the other party used force, it was difficult to save his life.
"You can't use the dew fire beads until the last resort, after all, there is only one, and you must find a way to annihilate them in one fell swoop." Chu Lin thought in his heart, tentatively giving Shu Man a look.
Shu Man's eyes rolled for a moment, and he immediately said: "Brother Zou family, let's leave him a dog first, killing such a lowly person is really dirty your hands," Zou Daming looked at Shu Man, the murderous aura in his eyes gradually receded, he threw Chu Lin aside, didn't even look at it, put away the heart-burning rune on the ground and walked towards the back mountain.
"The two eldest brothers, please stay, and the younger brother is willing to lead the way to find Ruan Jianguo's hiding place." Chu Lin chased after him and stopped the Zou twins.
"Aren't you Ruan Jianguo's people? I hate traitors like you the most." Zou Erming said disgustedly.
Chu Lin smiled and said, "When he put these heart-burning runes in my hands, he no longer regarded me as his own brother, he wanted to put me to death, I always have to protect myself, right?"
Zou Daming looked at the sky and saw that it was not early, afraid that if he delayed any longer, he would miss a big event, after all, his two brothers wanted to enter with the big beauty in front of them, so they said without much thought: "Lead the way ahead."
Along the winding path, Chu Lin walked alone in front of the team, followed by the two Zou brothers, Shu Man, and Yuan Lai.
In fact, Chu Lin also has gambling in it, in his spare time on weekdays, Ruan Jianguo will occasionally take a nap in the cave in the back mountain, if there is no one inside, he will delay the two of them for so much time, and eighty percent will be headed.
Walking forward step by step, the cave was in front of him, Chu Lin turned around and pointed the way to the Zou brothers and said, "This is the cave."
"You go ahead". The Zou brothers said in unison as expected.
In the pitch-black cave, Chu Lin secretly pinched the magic trick, and the fire spirit pupil quietly came out, and the pitch-black cave instantly became brighter.
The uneven road surface, the dripping cave, a few people followed Chu Lin and groped forward, for some reason, the rest of them didn't seem to be proficient in this most basic alchemy technique.
Before they knew it, they had come to the bottom of the cave, which was an open space, the size of a small square. There was nothing left but a large pool in the middle.
"This seems to have come to an end, are you sure Ruan Jianguo is here? Don't play tricks to delay time, be careful of losing your life." Zou Daming said sinisterly after seeing that there was no one around, obviously having moved to kill.
"Wait a minute, don't you think there's something wrong with this place." Chu Lin said cautiously.
Zou Erming said impatiently: "Don't delay time, be careful if you don't see a figure again, your life is not guaranteed."
Chu Lin shook his head and said, "This location is very high, it is obviously a dead place, but it hides living water. I still know a lot about the division of the whole Qiongzhufeng, the groundwater is artificially diverted, and it will definitely not flow here, I guess there is only one possibility."
"What is possible?" said several people almost at the same time.
Chu Lin pointed to the water and said, "In this water, there is a secret."
Everyone looked into the water, only to see that in the pool of stagnant water, bubbles were tumbling, and dark blue faces and dark green pupils were quietly staring at everyone under the water.
"Retreat quickly, retreat quickly" Zou Daming, who felt the extreme crisis, was the first to shout.
Chu Lin in the crowd touched the dew fire beads in his arms, thinking in his heart that if he chose between his life and the number of inner disciples, of course he would choose to save his life first.
The group quickly retreated in the direction of the cave entrance, and the carrion corpses in the water crawled out one after another, not fast but did not stop, and slowly chased in the direction where everyone left.
Waves of sonic attacks came from the direction of the carrion, and the harsh and restless melody stimulated the nerves of everyone's brain.
"It's all you, if you hadn't deliberately pointed the wrong way, how could it have come to this point, I'd kill you now" Zou Erming, who was attacked by the sound wave, was furious, and a light blue halo spear that was disproportionate to his figure appeared between his hands, stabbing directly at Chu Lin.
