Chapter 986: Trapped in It
An Zheng and Chen Shaobai walked in front, and the dozens of cultivators supported the nun of the Peacock Ming Palace, Master Changyan and the other three people to walk behind. www.biquge.info An Zheng looked back from time to time and found that the state of the three nuns was getting worse and worse, and their faces were getting paler and paler. The three of them couldn't even lift their heads, and they were almost carried along.
Chen Shaobai was more and more frightened the more he walked, this road seemed to have no end, according to the calculation of time, even if the width of this mountain was dozens of miles, it should come to an end, with their speed, they walked for more than two hours, and there were hundreds of miles, but the cave in front of them still led straight into the distance, and there was no light.
"It's not right, it's almost hell. ”
Chen Shaobai looked at An Zheng, and An Zheng nodded: "Stop, ask them what the situation is." ”
The two people stopped, and those who were dozens of meters away from them also stopped, and the one at the head was called Zhou Sen, and after seeing An Zheng and them stop, he immediately asked in a loud voice, "Why did you stop?!"
An Zheng: "I have to ask about the situation, the environment here is getting weirder and weirder." ”
Zhou Sen seemed to be holding Master Chang Yan, but in fact, he was holding Master Chang Yan's life: "I asked her just now, it is indeed a long time to walk." You two go honestly in front, or I'll strangle her, and everyone won't be able to get out or get in by then." ”
An Zheng frowned slightly, and there was already murderous aura in his eyes.
Zhou Sen didn't know who An Zheng was, so he took out a dagger and pressed it against the heart of Master Changyan: "Say, how far do you have to go!"
The mage said weakly, "Don't ...... Don't go, you can't get out...... Here, there are ghosts here. ”
"Fuck off!"
Zhou Sen's face changed: "There can be no ghosts in this world, this cave must lead to some hidden treasure place, but you don't want to say it." Don't pretend to be a ghost here to scare people, you people from the Peacock Ming Palace must have already entered, don't lie to people, otherwise I will let you die first. ”
As the saying goes, the mage's body went limp, and he actually fainted.
Zhou Sen didn't dare to let go, lest An Zheng and Chen Shaobai come over to rob people, and turned around and ordered people to ask the other two nuns, only to find that the two nuns had also passed out.
"If you go any further, no one knows where you will go. ”
Chen Shaobai looked at Zhou Sen and said coldly, "Do you want to go to hell?"
Zhou Sen's hands trembled imperceptibly, he looked at everyone, and then said loudly: "Let's wait here, and we'll ask when they wake up." You two go ahead and explore the way, and a few people follow them, and you can't let them run first. ”
He instructed everyone to sit down and rest on the spot, and surrounded the three of them in the center, with the dagger always pressed against the heart of the Chang Yan mage. Those people discussed it for a while, and divided seven or eight people to follow An Zheng and Chen Shaobai to explore the way, and another dozen or so people went back to see if there was any trap. There were two dozen people left, just waiting in place.
Chen Shaobai pulled An Zheng: "Before there is a way out, they don't dare to kill, let's find a way first." ”
An Zheng nodded, and walked forward with Chen Shaobai. Those seven or eight cultivators didn't dare to get too close, and they followed behind about ten meters away from An Zheng. These people held the magic weapon in their hands, ready to strike at any time. Chen Shaobai glanced back at them and snorted: "Just a few of you?"
Those people were so frightened that they didn't dare to go any further, Chen Shaobai glanced at it disdainfully and continued to move forward. The road walked seemed to have changed at all, it was a tunnel that would never end, with exactly the same walls all around, the same dome overhead, and the same ground under your feet, no changes, no undulations.
An Zheng glanced back, and the people still kept their distance and followed, but it was obvious that the fear on everyone's faces was getting stronger. They've been on for at least another hour, and nothing has changed.
"Let's ...... Let's go back. ”
Someone said in a trembling voice behind him.
Sometimes, fear isn't just about actually dealing with something terrible, such as a ghost or monster that suddenly appears in front of you. Such a long walk that seems to be boundless brings people no less fear than the sudden appearance of ghosts and monsters. Because there is no goal, there is no hope, there is nothing. They were all cultivators, and their physical strength was far beyond that of ordinary people, but now a thought appeared in everyone's hearts...... They go on like this, until they die, and they won't go to the exit.
"Let's go back......"
The second speaker's voice was equally trembling, even begging.
Chen Shaobai snorted: "It's really fast." ”
Ann took out a bead and put it on the side of the road: "Don't take it from anyone, let's go a little further and see if we will encounter this bead again." ”
Everyone followed An Zheng and they continued to walk forward in fear, An Zheng calculated his steps, and estimated that he had walked for at least five miles, and the surrounding environment had not changed at all, and he did not see the bead. An Zheng had to stop and look back at the men, their faces were bloodless.
"Go back, you can't get there. ”
Chen Shaobai sighed: "I can only go back." ”
Everyone turned around and walked back, worried about what was wrong behind them, and they waited for An Zheng and Chen Shaobai to come over first, and then they followed behind. That is, after walking two hundred steps away, An Zheng's footsteps suddenly stopped, Chen Shaobai paused for a moment, asked him what was wrong, and found that An Zheng's face was a little pale.
Following An Zheng's line of sight, Chen Shaobai saw the bead on the side of the road.
I had walked at least five miles, but I had walked less than two hundred steps back before I saw the beads.
"This ...... What's going on?"
Chen Shaobai asked subconsciously.
"Let's go, if the distance we go forward and backward is different, we can get back to the place where Master Changyan and the others left off in half an hour at most. If you find them, return immediately, or you may be trapped here forever. ”
Everyone quickened their pace and walked back, and sure enough, they walked for less than half an hour before returning to where Zhou Sen's people were. Zhou Sen glanced at An Zheng, and subconsciously clenched the dagger against the heart of the Changyan mage: "Is there a way out?!"
An Zheng shook his head: "You let go of the person first, I have to treat her injuries, if she dies, none of us can get out." The three of them had been in before, and they could get out, so the key was them. ”
Zhou Sen sneered: "Don't think I don't know what you're going to do, you want to take these three nuns away, right? Leave us here, there is no door." I have sent people back to explore the way, and if they can get out, we can go out as well. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rush of footsteps. An Zheng glanced back, and his eyes immediately changed. More than a dozen people ran out quickly from the direction from which they had returned, their faces turned pale, and they were obviously so frightened that they were about to disappear. They were the same people who had gone in the direction of the cave, but they had only come back a few minutes later than Anzheng and had come back in the direction they had gone. In other words, they should have been following them all the time, but they were going in the other direction, why would they appear behind them? If that's the case, why didn't they meet them when they turned back, or if they walked some distance further, they would have met?
"You ...... What the fuck are you doing?"
Zhou Sen scolded angrily: "Didn't I let you go in the direction of the exit? Why did you go in the same direction with them." ”
Although he was scolding angrily, his hands were already shaking with fright. Because he himself knew very well that those people were going in the direction of the exit.
The cultivator who led the people back was named Li Canjie, and his face was extremely pale and terrifying: "We...... We just walked in the direction of the exit, and when we saw a light, we rushed over, and we thought we had walked out of the cave, but we didn't ...... I didn't expect to meet you. ”
An Zheng asked him, "Did you turn a corner?"
"Absolutely not, we went all the way down the cave, there was absolutely no turn, and you saw this cave, we walked all the way straight, where there was a turn. There is no fork in the road, and it is absolutely impossible to detour back. And I left a mark when I went out, for fear that something would be wrong, and I didn't see the mark until I walked......"
"What are you left behind?"
"I carved a cross with a knife into the stone wall. ”
An Zheng pulled Chen Shaobai by the hand: "Let's go over and have a look." ”
The two of them walked in the direction of the exit, and Zhou Sen immediately ordered loudly: "Follow them, don't let them run first." ”
Li Canjie led people to follow, walked about 200 meters in the direction of the exit, and saw the deep carved cross on the stone wall. Li Canjie's shoulders trembled, and his body almost fell to the ground: "Impossible, we walked for at least an hour and couldn't see the exit, so I carved this mark, we walked out at least a few dozen miles in an hour, how could it be only about two hundred meters." ”
An Zheng looked at Chen Shaobai: "Maybe we are not in the same mountain anymore." ”
Chen Shaobai: "What do you mean?"
An Zheng sat down and recalled his previous experience: "We came out of the main hall of the underground palace, walked all the way down the road and saw this cave, and then came in. From the perspective of the underground palace, the mountain is not very tall, at most the width is no more than twenty li. But there's one thing we've all overlooked...... We came down from the ground, we entered the underground palace, how could there be a mountain below the ground where we could see the top of the mountain?"
"Unconsciously, we all ignore that this is in the dungeon and not in the outside world. We saw that the mountain did not go to doubt, and came in as a matter of course. And among them, I met the three of them, and said that the Peacock King had already entered the cave with people, so we didn't suspect it......"
Chen Shaobai immediately turned around: "Those three talents are the key." ”
An Zheng and the others immediately walked back, and when they came over, they only walked more than 200 meters before they saw the marks on the stone wall, but when they turned back, they couldn't see Master Chang Yan and Zhou Sen's group. Everyone's hearts sank, as if they had a premonition. An Zheng asked people to go as fast as they could, without delay, and everyone ran forward as hard as they could, and only returned to the place where they set out after running for more than an hour.
And there, something has changed.
The ground was full of dead bodies, and the twenty or so cultivators who remained in place were all dead. Everyone was bitten out of a hole in their necks, their tracheas were ruptured, and blood was bubbling out of their trachea. A large part of them had their lower abdomen cut open, and their intestines and internal organs were eaten clean. The corpses were strewn and scattered, apparently having fought, and there were traces of a fight on the ground, a lot of blood splattered on the walls, and traces of the claws of beasts.
Everyone's eyes were plucked out, some had one cut out, some had both eyes plucked out. The strange thing is that although the eyes were plucked out, they were not taken away, nor were they eaten, but they were just hung on the face, so they looked even more terrifying.
"The three of them aren't dead yet. ”
Chen Shaobai squatted down and looked: "The three Peacock Ming Palace people are not dead, they are still in a coma." There was no blood on their hands or mouths. ”
"Huh?"
An Zheng stood against the wall, and his heart was in turmoil for a while.
At this moment, Zhou Sen, who was covered in blood, walked back from the direction of the cave with a blue face, and the blood on his body was still dripping, and there were bloody footprints along the way. His hands were covered in blood, and his fingernails were covered in shreds. And there was blood at the corner of his mouth, and when he grinned, the blood on Sen Bai's teeth was pulled out of sticky silk......
