The maggot's rotten face and eye sockets were deep-set, the dull eyeballs were only the whites of the eyes, the dry arms were still a little red of flesh and blood, and the rusty iron sword in his hand was on the ground, walking without a sound, until Cao Xuan looked down, only to find that it had no feet, and it was empty below the knees, floating in the air and wandering forward.

Although Cao Xuan was mentally prepared, he was still frightened by the appearance of the spirit guard, and forced the urge to run, but he still couldn't control his body trembling slightly because of fear.

Is this the Spiritual Keeper? The real sense of oppression, and the fear from the bottom of my heart, if I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, who would have thought that this terrible monster would be the Guardian, and if I faced the Guardian in front of me in a sudden situation, I would most likely forget to run away because of fear.

The pain from the big arm interrupted Cao Xuan's thoughts and almost made him scream, Yue Ruxue on the side closed his eyes tightly, pinched Cao Xuan's flesh with both hands, and his petite body was shaking greatly, seeing this Cao Xuan had no choice but to clench his teeth and endure the pain, he was afraid that if he took the other party's hand away, the other party would lose his vent, and he would not be able to bear the fear and scream, so as to attract the attention of the guardian, and when the time came, it was found that both of them would die.

The short period of time seemed very long at this moment, and every second was torment, but thankfully, the spirit keeper did not notice the two of them, and gradually drifted away from Cao Xuan's sight and disappeared into the dark night.

After a while, the yin wind dissipated and the surroundings calmed down, Cao Xuan had already determined that the spirit keeper was leaving, and he slapped the claw that was pinching his flesh with his palm: "Let go!" The guy is gone. ”

The feeling in his hand made Yue Ruxue feel excited, and he wanted to shout, but he gave up his thoughts when he heard Cao Xuan's words.

"What? That monster left? I'm scared to death, it's the first time I've seen such a terrifying monster when I'm so big, it's so scary, if I get caught by it, it will definitely not end well, will I die miserably? What to do, what to do, we must not escape, it is a real monster! ”

Frowning, Cao Xuan stared at the girl in front of him and didn't know what he was thinking, Yue Ruxue recovered from her frightened emotions, and found that the other party had not spoken, and her eyes were a little unnatural when she touched Cao Xuan's gaze.

"Why are you staring at me like that? What are you doing? ”

Staring at the other party's evasive gaze, Cao Xuan said calmly: "You almost killed me just now, and I was thinking about whether to leave you behind." ”

Yue Ruxue was frightened when she heard this, and when she thought of the deserted wilderness at midnight, surrounded by mounds and tombstones, and terrifying soul keepers, her heart pounded, and she grabbed Cao Xuan's cuffs, and pleaded with a face: "You can't do this, can't I promise to be obedient?" You can't leave me alone. ”

I didn't really want to leave the other party, Cao Xuan actually wanted to scare her, seeing that the goal was achieved, Cao Xuan put forward a condition: "Follow me, my request is, stay by my side, don't make any noise, don't make trouble for me, it's better not to happen like what happened just now, and the last point, avoid physical contact with me under non-special conditions, for example, please take your hand away now!" ”

"You remember, if you cause me trouble, I will not hesitate to abandon you, and even use you as a bait to cover my departure, understand?"

Yue Ruxue thought that the other party was scaring her, but she found that Cao Xuan's face could not see the slightest deception, her eyes were cold, her tone was serious, and her expression was serious, so she immediately distanced herself from Cao Xuan a little, and nodded obediently: "Hmm!" I know. ”

Not caring about the other party's thoughts, Cao Xuan grabbed the soil on the grave and gently touched his fingertips.

What's buried underneath this? It would be good if it could be dug up, there might be clues hidden in it, judging from the clothes of the guardian just now, the damage was too serious, and I could only vaguely judge that the other party was wearing ancient clothes, and I had no clue at all, and the information I had was still too little.

After making up his mind, Cao Xuan chose to leave in the opposite direction from the guardian, stepping on the mud ground covered with dead leaves, the surrounding darkness was hazy, fortunately, there were not many trees here, with the help of the meager moonlight Cao Xuan could barely distinguish the surrounding scenery, passing by the place where he woke up at the beginning, and continued to walk forward, and after a long time, Cao Xuan found that the wordless tombstones here gradually increased, from sporadic distribution to about ten steps now, you can meet one.

"I think it's close to the center of the tombstones, and I think it's the owner of the tomb, but what role does the Guardian play in this, is it just a soldier guarding the mausoleum? I think something is trapped here, and the things of the mind that the mission says are the key to its departure. ”

The feet are almost covered with graves, there are no trees around, and there is no place to settle down, so you can only walk through the gap between the graves, and there are more and more weeds on the graves, which greatly obscure Cao Xuan's sight.

If the graves in this area are so compact, then the number of people buried here is considerable, and it seems that they should not belong to the ancestral land of some places, because these tombs are almost the same age, which is a bit scary, that is to say, they are almost buried together, and the reason why these tombstones are wordless, I think maybe it is because they are not qualified to be nominated at all, they are the appendages of the owners of the tombs, whether they are dead or alive, as long as the owner dies they accompany the burial.

Brushing aside the weeds on the grave pile in front of him, Cao Xuan's feet finally fell to the relatively gentle ground, he had already walked out of the large group of tombstones, in a relatively empty area, and at the center point about fifty meters away from him, there was a mound, there was a huge stone stele at the top of the mound, and there was still the same grave around the mound, but this time the tombstone in front of the grave was no longer wordless.

It seems that the apex of the mound is the burial place of the true owner of the tombstone group, let me see who you really are, and you need so many people to be buried when you die.

Walking forward, Cao Xuan first observed the words on the tombstone under the mound, but Cao Xuan couldn't understand the above record at all, it was not Chinese characters, but a bunch of crooked symbols, which made Cao Xuan have a headache.

Just when Cao Xuan was disappointed and wanted to give up, Yue Ruxue, who had been following honestly, suddenly spoke: "I may know what this is." ”
