Chapter 8: The Road
Fan Xiaoqi was shocked by the magnificent and strange stone monument complex in front of him, and after indulging in it for a long time, his thoughts gradually returned to reality. At this time, he suddenly thought of a very practical question, and it was also a question that he should have thought of a long time ago.
That is, he has been sent to the 'Ghost Gate' by two 'ghost messengers' not long ago. In other words, he should be dead by now............
At the thought of this, he froze in place again. Frightened, his body began to tremble a little.
"I ...... I'm already dead?......" Fan Xiaoqi said to himself with a trembling voice.
He was frightened, and once again looked up at the huge dragon that stood tall in the sky. He suddenly felt that the face and demeanor of the divine dragon, especially the bulging eyes of the round stool, had a fierce and vicious aura. And the eight warrior statues erected next to it are all hideous-looking and murderous! The whole complex looks more like an altar somewhere in an eerie and terrifying area!!
When he saw this, a cold sweat broke out on his body in an instant. And then, the whole body trembled violently. After that, he fled in a panic towards the outside of the stele complex.
After running wildly over the clear stream in front of the stone monument, his state of fear slowly subsided, and he reluctantly stopped.
At this time, he turned his back to the complex, gasping for air, and on the other hand, calmed down a little of his flustered emotions and a mess of thoughts. Slowly began to think rationally.
If I'm really dead, if it's really a netherworld, then why didn't the Yin come to arrest me?...... Also, where are the two Yin cha who forcibly sent me into the purple vortex just now?......
After a moment, he mustered up his courage, turned his head suddenly, and looked at the 'Jade Dragon' on the Gundam Stone Tablet again. Where is there any fierce and evil spirit? This is clearly a majestic and fierce spirit!
Then, he looked around at the statues next to him again, and found that their demeanor was just as he had seen it for the first time, majestic and majestic!
Looks like I'm thinking too much......
With a relaxed smile on the corner of Fan Xiaoqi's mouth, he once again entered rational thinking.
Although this is indeed a bizarre thing, why should I be so sure that the two mysterious kidnappers are shady? Maybe they do have something unspeakable, maybe it's really for my good, that's why they ......
Besides, if I really went to the underworld, then I should have no feet now, and I should float up!
In fact...... There should also be another possibility, and that is me...... Yes, that's a possibility. There's a good chance I've really traveled to the past, or to another planet, just like those male protagonists on TV!
In any case, it is too early to draw any conclusions. I'd better look around before jumping to conclusions.
Thinking of this, he straightened his clothes, which looked a little messy from the wild running just now. At the same time, I took a deep breath and relaxed. Then, cautiously explore the depths of the woods ahead.
After walking into the slightly gloomy woods, his mood gradually calmed down as those strange and shocking stone monument buildings temporarily disappeared from his sight. Now he finally has the time to observe the wonderful scenery around him.
The air here is exceptionally fresh and refreshing. I don't know how many times better than the dirty environment in Yichang City, where he is located. Due to the unusual vegetation, it is difficult for the outside sunlight to penetrate very well. Only occasionally there were a few small pillars of light, struggling to shine through the thick vegetation branches and foliage onto the ground. This adds a little brightness to this dark forest, avoiding the possibility of its darkness.
Without sunlight, the temperature in the forest is at least 78 degrees cooler than outside. But fortunately, the temperature is only cool, not cold.
The woods are full of towering trees that are rarely seen. Although Fan Xiaoqi has always spent his time dozing off and playing with his mobile phone when he was in botanical class. But judging from the appearance of these trees, the vast majority of these trees should belong to rare species. Because their shape and style are very unique, they are definitely two different styles of vegetation than what he usually sees and what he sees on TV. Fan Xiaoqi secretly guessed in his mind that some of the trees that looked very strange might be species on another planet.
The ground in the forest was overgrown with all sorts of fat, unnamed weeds, and the thick roots of some tall trees were crookedly exposed. Luckily, it's not raining now, otherwise I wouldn't know how to make my way through this complicated forest!
After walking deep into the woods for about 10 minutes, Fan's original intense curiosity quietly faded, replaced by a kind of confusion and confusion. Looking at the woods with no end in sight and no direction to tell, Fan Xiaoqi had no choice but to rely on his intuition and subconsciously walk forward, in the direction of what he thought was a straight line. 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 40 minutes passed. The surroundings are still the vast primeval forests that cannot be seen, touched and walked. His heart began to become more and more empty, more and more chaotic!
Fortunately, this not-so-good state didn't last long. After about 15 minutes of cautious exploration, the trees and vegetation in front of me gradually thinned out. Not far away, a winding forest path faintly appeared.
So, he walked quickly in the direction of the path excitedly, and soon came to the front of the path.
I saw that this winding path was covered by clouds and dense trees, flickering and flickering. I can't see where it came from, or where it's going. It seems deep, mysterious, and unpredictable! Fan Xiaoqi looked at this path that seemed a little mysterious, and his mind began to think about it. It's so weird, it's such a deep path, where does it lead? Is it a shortcut to the Immortal Mountain? Or is it the Yellow Spring Road to the Yin Dynasty?......
While he was guessing, a faint sound of horses' hooves sounded in his ears. He looked to the source of the sound, and saw that at one end of the path, in the light mist, two vague figures could be faintly seen moving towards him. So, he lurked in a bunch of grass beside him......
