Chapter 359: Night Terrors
When everyone had rested enough and all the strength in their bodies had returned, the fishy smell of insect and beast corpses and sticky blood had also resumed its proper effect, and Lin Mengyan squatted aside and vomited wildly. The heart-rending sound almost made me vomit out all my internal organs.
Other people who could have endured it couldn't help but turn their stomachs pale under this kind of stimulation. glanced at the faces of the people next to him, and found that they were in a similar situation, so they didn't force themselves anymore, one by one, like a game, and they vomited when they found a place that was pleasing to the eye. Gu Lingzhi and Rong Yuan listened to the faint symphony of vomiting, and their faces trembled. Stroking his stomach, which was so stimulated that he also felt like vomiting, Gu Lingzhi looked at Rong Yuan, "When they come over later." You can get them some water to wash. ”
Except for Lin Rong, the few people in Lingcheng couldn't find a clean place on their bodies, and they had to walk with people with insect and beast corpses and mucus, and Gu Lingzhi was crazy just thinking about it.
Rong Yuan's face turned pale and said solemnly: "It's necessary!"
So when Wei Lingshu came to Gu Lingzhi and the others with a few people who were about to dehydrate, Rong Yuan stopped them from afar. Under the grateful gaze of several people, several jets of water fell from the sky, allowing them to take a comfortable bath. At this time, everyone automatically ignored the importance of being able to use spiritual power here. If they don't wash their sticky and smelly things, they will stink to death before they get there. How can you care if you have spiritual power or not.
Others are easy to do, just rinse a few big * directly under the water column, Lin Mengyan is a little embarrassed. Looking at the water column in front of him, it was not rushing, it was not, or Gu Lingzhi saw her embarrassment, and whispered in Rong Yuan's ear, Rong Yuan reacted at this time, there is a difference between men and women, Lin Mengyan can't take a shower in front of so many men.
His brows furrowed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a one-person-high earthen wall rose around Lin Mengyan, perfectly isolating the sight of others, and Lin Mengyan began to clean up his body as if he had come to life.
When Lin Mengyan finished rinsing, struggled with the wet clothes he had changed into, and was about to put them back on, a brand-new, emerald green Luo skirt appeared above the earthen wall, and Gu Lingzhi's voice also came, "If the clothes are not dry, wear mine first." ”
Lin Mengyan thanked him gratefully, took his clothes and put them on, and then jumped out of the wall surrounded by an earthen wall.
The others had already sucked the moisture out of their wet clothes with Rong Yuan's assistance, and chatted around in a refreshing manner. Seeing her come out, Wei Lingshu nodded and ordered everyone to prepare to hurry.
The rest of the journey was destined to be uneven, and the insects and beasts were only the first threat they encountered in the Land of the Trenches.
The Land of Trenches has existed for countless years, and it can't help but block the Lost Lands and the Endless Sea, and it has also bred countless strange creatures that are not found elsewhere. These creatures are diverse, but they all have one thing in common, and that is that they are all black.
"Maybe it's because the beasts of other colors have long since perished, right?"
Facing Gu Lingzhi's curious question, Fang Yue, who was facing Fang Yue, who was more than two feet long, looked like a cat, had black and shiny hair, but had two fangs more than one foot long that did not match its body at all, explained.
Gu Lingzhi looked at the black fog that was so dense that he couldn't see anything clearly from five meters away, and nodded in agreement. With the frequency with which they can encounter a wave of fierce beast attacks after walking for half an hour, it is really difficult for creatures with other colors and appearances to survive here, and just being found and dealing with the pursuit of other creatures is enough for them to be extinct dozens of times.
"It's almost time, hurry up and finish killing these double-edged cats and find a place to rest. Raise your spirits and hurry again. ”
As Wei Lingshu said this, Fang Yue cheered: "Okay!
There is no day and night in the land of the moat, and the work and rest depend on your own mood. It had been seven or eight hours since they came in. In the outside world, it is not time to rest, but here, the body can no longer bear it.
Thinking that they would be able to rest immediately, everyone neatly solved the remaining double-edged cats. Pulling the corpses aside, they began to set up camp.
The carcass of the double-edged cat was roasted for dinner. After the group had eaten and drunk enough, Wei Lingshu took out an hourglass from the large package he was carrying behind him, allocated the duty time for the vigil, and each of them lay back in their tents to rest.
Gu Lingzhi and Rong Yuan's vigil was the second half of the hourglass, and there was still plenty of time for them to rest. Understanding that Gu Lingzhi was also a little tired, Rong Yuan rarely did not act indiscriminately, but just pressed people to kiss carefully for a while, and then let Gu Lingzhi sleep, while he sat aside and meditated.
For some reason, the closer he got to the destination Wei Lingshu said, the more unsteady Rong Yuan felt in his heart. With the premise of encountering Pan Luming, Rong Yuan was very convinced of this kind of early warning in the dark. Naturally, I didn't dare to fall asleep at will. Fortunately, with the mental and physical strength of the demigods. Sleep is not so important anymore, just a little meditation can restore physical fitness.
The black mist-filled moat was terrifyingly quiet after everyone had rested, and the three men in charge of the night vigil sat in three directions, occasionally talking a word or two, staring at the depths of the fog with their eyes wrong, for fear that if they didn't pay attention, they would be caught off guard by the enemy hidden in the darkness.
Time passed, and the hourglass placed in the middle of the tents was halfway gone. Remind them that it's been two hours, and that they can get back on their way after just two more hours.
Suddenly, there was a faint birdsong in the distance, and the sound was so rough and unpleasant that it made people's hearts tremble. The three vigil men immediately concentrated and looked at the place where the sound came. The voice seemed to pass by by accidentally, and it hissed and never sounded again. After waiting for a while, no more voices were heard, and several people relaxed and relaxed.
Jin Hao looked at the hourglass that had lost almost two-thirds of it, and grinned: "If you hold on for a quarter of an hour, you can change people, this ghost place, I don't want to come a second time in my life." ”
Lin Mengyan glanced at him amusedly, "What if your Wei Hall Master comes back next time?"
“...... Well, I'll do it again. Jin Hao pursed his lips and struggled for a long time before he spit out such a sentence from between his lips. Seeing this, Lin Mengyan couldn't help but giggle.
This Jin Hao is also the grandson of a hall master in Lingcheng, and he has an amethyst grandfather who doesn't worship it, but he admires Wei Lingshu, a rising star. He walked around Wei Lingshu's residence all day long, and he was like a little follower in front of and behind, so angry that the old man of the Jin family said angry things that he didn't recognize him several times. But Jin Hao still does his own thing, and he is fascinated by the role of the fan brother. This time, I heard that Wei Lingshu was going to go far away, so he insisted on following him despite the opposition of his family. After I went back, I don't know how long I had to be talked about by Mr. Jin.
"What are you laughing at, you are not allowed to laugh!" Jin Hao was a little embarrassed by Lin Mengyan's laughter, twisted his head to the side in shame, and mocked back without admitting defeat, "What's wrong with me worshiping Hall Master Wei? It's better than some people who have secret loves who don't dare to speak for decades." ”
When Lin Mengyan heard this, the smile on his face suddenly closed, and he glared at the other party through gritted teeth.
She liked Wei Lingshu's matter, almost the entire Lingcheng people knew, only Wei Lingshu's nerd didn't know, thinking that her show of favor to him was a sign of respect for the strong, and also reprimanded those who wanted to say good things for her in front of him not to speculate, so as not to ruin the reputation of the girl's family. God knows how much she wanted to knock on Wei Lingshu's head to see what was inside when she knew about this? The person she likes is so dull, I really don't know when she will be able to achieve positive results?
Rong Yuan, who was meditating in the tent, lowered his eyes and smiled when he heard the movement outside, he didn't think that Wei Lingshu really didn't see what Lin Mengyan thought about him. From the emotions he showed when he occasionally looked at Lin Mengyan, it could be seen that he was not unintentional towards Lin Mengyan. I don't know why he refuses to say anything, and he wants to hang other girls' families like this. Could it be some kind of taste that he doesn't understand?
Suddenly, the smile in Rong Yuan's eyes disappeared, and he turned his head to the side with a solemn expression, as if he wanted to see the situation outside through the tent.
At that moment, he seemed to hear the sound of birds flapping their wings. The heavy flapping sound seems to be formed by countless birds flapping their wings at the same time. The "whew" was gone.
Did he hear it wrong?
After not hearing the second sound for a long time, Rong Yuan frowned and suspected that the sound just now might be the sound of a bird passing by, just like the previous birdsong, it is estimated that it has flown away now.
Wait a minute...... Birdsong before?
Rong Yuan's face changed suddenly, it may be passing by once, in the same direction, at the same time period, can there really be two birds passing by?
Just as he stood up and was about to go out to take a look, a harbinger of danger hit him, echoing the uneasiness he had sensed earlier. Unable to confirm the truth of the matter, Rong Yuan directly woke up Gu Lingzhi, and then rushed out of the tent, and spit out a heavy sentence in the surprised eyes of the three vigils, "There is a situation!"
"What's the situation?" Jin Hao subconsciously asked, then stood up suddenly, and stammered nervously: "Difficult, is there a fierce beast?" But we didn't find the shadow of a fierce beast. ”
"Don't ask so much, go and wake up the others!" Compared with Jin Hao's stunnedness, Lin Mengyan's reaction should be a little more decisive immediately. After giving Jin Hao's instructions, he also walked to one of the tents. It didn't take long for the others, who were sleeping soundly, to pack up and come out of their tents.
Fang Yue yawned, looked at the empty surroundings, put one arm on the shoulder of the person next to him, and said sleepily: "Where is the fierce beast? Why didn't you see it?"
