Chapter 44: The Faint Singing
Dozens of kilometers away from Qingping Town, deep in the mountains northwest of Mangnan County.
It's a huge valley, like a dragon in two places, and I don't know how far deep.
Between the mountains, due to the abundant rain and abundant sunshine, the vegetation here is dense, the trees are tall, and the flat meadows can be displayed from time to time on the mountainside.
Hares, goats, and elk run and jump by from time to time, or quietly enjoy the green grass.
Walking through the dense forests of the valley, you can occasionally see unnamed beasts, silently appearing on the branches and in the pile of fallen leaves, staring nervously with various colored eyes and ears with ridged ears, presenting a different kind of quiet and strange atmosphere.
While running, Ichikaze is frightened by various beasts from time to time.
He carried the battered Qingning monk on his back, and ran to this quiet and deep valley in a panic, although the wild beasts rarely took the initiative to attack them rashly, but tentative roaring and intimidation were common, and at first glance these beasts were not good at stubble.
Xiu Gu followed behind the little senior brother, looking back from time to time, her dark eyes full of nervousness and worry.
The two of them ran forward with their heads suffocated like frightened and lost deer, and at this moment, suddenly, a clear and graceful singing voice came, and the hollow valley echoed endlessly.
Ichikaze quickly stopped and looked around cautiously, looking for where the sound was coming from.
Xiu Gu also stopped, but her big eyes were full of curiosity.
It is very strange that in such a dense and deep canyon, there are many poisonous miasma, wild beasts are rampant, and there is such a beautiful singing voice, if it is sent by ordinary people, the singing voice has already been bitten off by wild beasts, and people have long been used as rations for wild beasts.
The two of them gently stepped on the wet and heavy fallen leaves in the valley, and stepped forward cautiously step by step.
"Be careful!"
Xiu Gu suddenly grabbed a wind, and there was a poisonous snake with a similar color to the fallen leaves hidden in the fallen leaves in front of her, and the poisonous snake flew up, its head split, and it turned into two bites towards the two of them.
Yifeng used his spiritual power, using his hand as a knife, and quickly slashed towards the two snakes, and the snake's head fell to the ground, quickly decomposing into a puddle of black mud, and disappeared under the rotten fallen leaves.
Before the two of them could breathe a sigh of relief, the huge sound of the branches behind them suddenly came from behind, as if a huge monster was rushing towards here, and the two immediately turned around and used their whole body spiritual power to prepare to meet the enemy at any time.
The branches rolled and the leaves rang chaotically for a while, and the two listened intently, when suddenly two figures fell from the sky, and Xiu Gu was about to slap it, but a strong hand firmly choked her wrist.
Xiu Gu looked up, the fire monkey smiled at her, and Shuli shook her head on the side.
"Second Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, how are you?" Yifeng was very happy to see that it was them, he carried Monk Qingning on his back, his eyes flashed, and asked with concern.
"Fortunately, your second senior brother and I are clever, and the trouble is solved for the time being!" said the fire monkey with his chin raised proudly.
"There may be bigger trouble in the future, but let's solve this one in front of me first-I just heard someone singing in the distance, what's going on?" Shuli obviously didn't have the same relaxed mood as the fire monkey.
"We didn't know that we had just run here and were almost bitten by a snake before we had time to check on the situation. "The wind is authentic.
The fire monkey let go of Xiugu's hand, touched her head, stepped forward, and grabbed the wrist of Qingning Monk behind Yifeng.
Shuli cast an inquiring gaze.
The fire monkey shook his head and said, "There is still one breath left." ”
Shuli pondered for a while and said, "The Taoist priest behind will definitely not let us go, and now we must move forward." As for the inexplicable singing, don't bother for the time being, we've had enough trouble. It is better to go north through this valley as soon as possible, and our goal is still Nanzongji. ”
The fire monkey nodded, suddenly remembered something, took it out of his arms, took out a pair of pearls with a silver-white light, threw it into the book, and said with a wry smile: "This treasure of yours, you should still take it!"
But before the mother and son Xuanzhu landed in front of Shuli, she automatically spared a circle in the air and returned to the fire monkey.
Several people looked at this strange scene, they were all stunned for a moment, Shuli's eyes flashed, shook his head, and said solemnly: "Second senior brother, I have no fate with this baby, or you have a bigger role, we are in trouble now, you can play the best effect." ”
The fire monkey couldn't, so he had to reach out and take the baby bead back again.
Immediately, several people dispersed, the fire monkey was in front, Yifeng and Xiugu were left and right, behind the Shuli Palace, slowly starting, and then accelerating and running forward.
The sun was shining outside the valley, but the huge trees in the valley were intertwined with foliage, and the light was dark.
The four of them run pretentiously in the shadows, and they must always be on the lookout for all kinds of beasts that suddenly appear.
However, before he could run a mile, the fire monkey stopped in front of him, and the others immediately stood side by side with him, but they were startled by the scene in front of them.
Starting from under their feet, it seems that there is a very clear dividing line. With their bodies as the boundary, behind them was a dense forest, but in front of them was a thick gray-black miasma, covering the sky and the earth, unable to see two feet away, and the sun could not penetrate even a trace of it.
There were some strange stones in the miasma, the stones were blue-black, strangely craggy, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of ochre-colored gravel, bare, not even a decent plant, and it was completely two worlds behind it.
At this moment, the sultry and beautiful singing voice came over at an inopportune time, and it felt very close, not far from the poisonous miasma.
The four of them looked at each other, not because they wanted to make trouble, but because they really didn't let them go.
The fire monkey scratched his head, and he lost his temper in the face of this situation.
Despite the embarrassment, Shuli calmed down and thought carefully about what to do. He knew that he would definitely not be able to go around, but he didn't know how toxic this poisonous miasma was, so he was afraid that a few people would have to explain it here.
Ichifeng tugged at his sleeve and motioned for him to look ahead.
In the miasma ahead, things began to change again.
In the miasma in front of them, a few neatly arranged black stones that I hadn't noticed just now actually emitted a reddish glow, echoing and flickering with the ochre-colored gravel on the ground.
In the midst of the arranged stones, a strange wind blew and blew away the poisonous mist, and the unexplained song came out of the poisonous miasma more clearly, and seemed to be singing in their ears, making them feel extremely comfortable, but they had to be forced to be vigilant.
At this moment, the sound of rustling began to sound behind them and in the surrounding forest, and the dense sound overlapped, as if countless animals were crawling towards them.
Sure enough, in less than half a moment, there was a strange snake that could separate the snake's head that had just attacked Yifeng, but it was four or five times larger than just now, and there were more than a dozen of them as soon as they came out, which frightened several people to hurry up.
But their worries were obviously unnecessary, and a dozen or so strange snakes didn't bother to look at them, spitting scarlet letters directly around them, and crawled forward with full concentration, looking at their obsessive appearance, it was obvious that the song in the miasma affected them.
Since the appearance of the strange snake, many strange beasts have also appeared, such as the three-legged beast in gray scale armor, swaying and jumping over with its mouth swayed; the big monkey with two purple-pupiled eyes and a long tail on the back of its head swayed into the poisonous miasma while gnawing on fruit; and the golden-spotted wild leopard with black fleshy wings growing on its lower legs jumped ten feet away from the branches beside them······
There are many more strange beasts appearing, and they all have one thing in common, that is, they have not taken care of a few of them, and they have turned a blind eye.
If it weren't for the fire monkey accidentally stepping on the tail of the big monkey, the purple eyes of the monkey behind his head flashed with angry purple light, but he didn't attack him, but actually walked into the poisonous miasma without looking back, and they almost thought they were invisible.
On the road temporarily opened up by the black glowing stone in front of them, there were several groups of all kinds of monsters, and there were dozens of them, but they were all right, they looked hideous and quite ferocious, but as soon as they entered the miasma, all their eyes were covered with a layer of dark red light, and their eyes became hot and obsessed.
The singing not far away seems to be able to arouse not only the curiosity of the fire monkey and others, but also has an inexplicable and powerful attraction to the beasts that live here, and they are like a pilgrimage, desperately burrowing into the poisonous miasma.
Just as they were at a loss, the sound of leaves rubbing against them sounded again.
Yifeng instantly became alert, and several people glanced at each other, and they all understood that this familiar movement was obviously someone running!
As the sound got closer and closer, someone made a move! The sound of them scolding and roaring to kill the beasts that appeared came also came - the Taoist priests finally caught up!
