Chapter 30: The Emerald Snake
"We're back again!" At this moment, Li Yueying looked at the traces carved on the edge of the stone wall and said with a wry smile.
Since the first fork in the road, every distance they have walked, there will be another fork in the road, and now it has changed from the original two to eight.
Not only that, but sometimes after going around in a circle, you will return to the same place, and not every one of these roads is passable, and several times halfway through, there will be piles of yellow sand in front of you, blocking the road.
After Mo Yuntian glanced around, he said in a deep voice, "It seems that this place should be a labyrinth." ”
"That's fine, at least it's not easy for Wang Lei and others to find us. At this point, his face improved slightly.
When Li Yueying heard this, she said softly: "This may be the luck in the misfortune!"
"Let's go this way this time!"
After Mo Yuntian glanced around, he made a mark on the stone wall again, and then explored again with the county lord to find an exit.
This time, the two of them didn't walk long, and they were surprised to find that trees appeared in front of them, and along the road section, there was no end in sight, and the whole place became more spacious.
"It's so unusual how trees can appear in this place. Li Yueying exhaled, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"These trees, not ordinary trees, are all ...... Cast in bronze!" Mo Yuntian stepped forward to check it, only to find that "this tree is not a tree." ”
This row of trees is all made of bronze, not real trees.
"It's ingenious, it's unbelievably perfect. Li Yueying was amazed again and again, and couldn't help but praise and said.
This bronze tree is one foot high, with staggered branches and dense foliage.
Not only that, the lines on the trunk are clearly carved, and the "leaves" are as thin as cicada wings, and the lines are clear.
If you don't touch it with your hands, even if you stand in front of you, you won't be able to see that these are not real trees, but are made of bronze.
"I don't know how the predecessors forged it!" Li Yueying sighed softly, her words full of disbelief.
This kind of lifelikeness, to such an extent as fake and real, is really rare in the world, and even she, the county lord, has never encountered it.
Mo Yuntian withdrew his gaze from the "Bronze Tree" and said to the county lord: "The Bronze Tree will appear here, which proves that this place is different from the place we walked just now, let's continue to move forward, maybe there will be something to discover." ”
"Hmm!" Li Yueying naturally had no opinion after hearing this, and the two continued to go deep into the maze.
Mo Yuntian thought as he walked.
From the moment he entered the building, he was amazed to find that everything around him was spotless, as if it had been buried for thousands of years, leaving no trace of time.
The surrounding stone walls were not corroded at all, and the ground was unusually clean, just like those green tung trees, and he didn't find any dust, not even a grain of yellow sand.
"What kind of place is this?" Mo Yuntian frowned tightly and muttered to himself in his heart.
......
"Ah......h
I don't know how long I walked, but when I was around a corner, Li Yueying suddenly screamed.
"What's wrong!" Mo Yuntian hurriedly turned his head to look at the county lord and asked suspiciously.
"Look. Li Yueying swallowed her saliva, stepped forward, and left the place.
It turned out that on the side of her place, there was a corpse there.
Just now he was still thinking that Li Yueying had always been unfazed by the change, what happened to make her so frightened.
There was a county lord blocking just now, but he didn't notice it, and now as soon as she left her position, this corpse suddenly appeared in front of him, which also startled him.
Mo Yuntian squatted down, observed, pointed to the jade plate next to the bones, and said with a solemn face: "This person should have entered here from the outside, just like us, and the 'Ten Thousand Dragons' engraved on this jade plate on the ground has already explained ......."
Li Yueying was also a thoughtful person, and immediately comprehended his words, and said loudly: "You mean, this building is not the first time it has appeared!"
She also knows that this "Ten Thousand Dragons Country" is also a small country, about the same size as the country where she is located, the 'Black Phoenix Country'.
"Not bad......"
Mo Yuntian said with a heavy face: "You see that this person's back is close to the stone wall, and his right hand makes a blocking gesture, although it is a skeleton, you can also judge from his mouth wide open, you can also judge what terrible things he encountered when he was dying, so he would react like this." ”
Hearing this, Li Yueyingdai frowned slightly, puzzled: "But all the bones on his body are intact, and he doesn't want to be killed!"
If it is killed by someone, whether it is a sword or a palm bombardment, the other party's bones cannot be intact, and there will definitely be some traces.
"This is also where I am puzzled, after the other party dies, he still maintains the posture of life, which is really a bit weird. Mo Yuntian's brows furrowed, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
Along the way, they didn't encounter any danger, and their vigilance was relaxed a lot, but now that this corpse appeared, they realized that things were not as simple as they imagined.
The two of them looked around again, and after finding nothing else, they walked forward again.
This time, they deliberately slowed down and stopped rushing like before.
The unknown danger is the most terrifying, and neither of them dares to be careless.
In this way, the two walked cautiously for an hour or so.
During this period, no danger was found, but the hearts of the two were not only relaxed, but became more and more solemn.
Because, during this journey, several more corpses appeared, all of which were the same as the first discovery.
"This is already the fifth corpse!" Looking at the bones that fell in the middle of the road in the distance, Li Yueying's eyebrows were full of worry, and her jade face became even more solemn.
Mo Yuntian frowned slightly, but did not answer.
Of course, he understood the meaning of the county lord's words, and the time for the corpses to appear was getting shorter and shorter.
The people who died first obviously entered this place in the same group, which also shows in disguise that this road is unusual, and if they continue to walk, they are likely to end up like these people.
"Let's go, we have no way back now!" he said after a long time, licking his somewhat dry lips.
Later, Wang Lei and others chased after each other, maybe they would catch up when they would, and all they could do now was to continue to move forward.
"Hiss......"
As soon as Mo Yuntian took a step, he heard a soft sound.
"Wait!" he stared, and immediately grabbed the county lord's hand and motioned for her not to move.
"How ......"
Li Yueying just wanted to open her mouth to ask what was going on, but found that Mo Yuntian made a silent gesture to her, and immediately stood aside, not silent, just looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"Hiss ......"
"Huh...... What a sound!" This time Li Yueying also heard the sound, and couldn't help muttering in her heart.
Another strange "hiss" sound!
"This voice seems to come from the skeleton in front of me, I'll take a look!" the county lord frowned, moved lightly, and stepped forward to investigate.
She had barely taken a few steps when a strange snake burst out of her skeleton and swooped forward.
"No, get down. Seeing this, Mo Yuntian's face changed, and he immediately wanted to stop Li Yueying, but now he wanted to rush over to rescue the county lord, but it was too late.
Li Yueying's face changed slightly, and in the face of this sudden change, Fang Xin was also shocked.
In a few breaths, the emerald green monster snake had already come to her, and the speed was so fast that people secretly smacked their tongues.
At this moment, Li Yueying's body leaned back as if boneless, and the strange snake grazed against her chest, making her dodge.
Seeing that the county lord was fine, Mo Yuntian's originally tense heartstrings were relaxed, but before he could finish his breath, he found that the strange snake had changed direction in the air and shot towards him sharply.
Mo Yuntian snorted coldly, he didn't dodge or dodge in the face of this turquoise strange snake, his right hand flicked, and a wolf tooth appeared in his hand, and he raised his hand and wanted to shoot at it.
But at this moment, the anomaly returned.
The strange snake suddenly shot out a bloody arrow, and before it could reach it, Mo Yuntian felt a thick fishy aura rushing towards his face, making people feel sick.
This time, Mo Yuntian's heart was terrified, and he felt that this blood arrow was not trivial.
He didn't care about shooting out the wolf's teeth, stomped on the ground with his right foot, and his body retreated again and again, but the speed of this blood arrow was so fast that in a breath, it had already arrived in front of him.
In desperation, Mo Yuntian's body was short, and he rolled on the spot and dodged.
The blood arrow was castrated, and it shot on the stone wall with a "poof", and suddenly there was a burst of snort, and a puff of black smoke rose up, and most of the stone wall was eroded in.
Seeing this, Mo Yuntian's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly wanted to stand up, but the strange snake followed behind him and shot down from mid-air.
The speed was too fast, and it was too late to dodge again, so he subconsciously raised his right hand to block.
Suddenly, a scene flashed in Mo Yuntian's mind.
He remembered the skeleton for the first time, and the momentum of the other party's death was the same as the gesture he was making now.
"Huh!"
At this moment, Mo Yuntian suddenly felt his arm tighten, as if he was entangled in something, and followed his body to move rapidly along the ground and came to the county lord.
"How is it, it's okay!" Li Yueying picked up Mo Yuntian and asked with concern
"It's okay! Thank you......" Mo Yuntian looked at the things wrapped around his hand, and then realized that it was the county lord who saved him.
It turned out that when it was critical just now, Li Yueying wanted to rush over to the rescue, but it was too late.
There was no weapon in her hand to use, so in a hurry, she untied her belt and wrapped it around Mo Yuntian's arm as a rope, which saved him.
The turquoise monster snake attacked several times in a row, allowing the target to escape, angry, the snake core "hissed" and vomited, writhing the snake body in place, and looked at the two people in front of him vigilantly.
Mo Yuntian saw that the strange snake did not attack again, so naturally he would not deliberately provoke it, and his eyes carefully looked at this strange snake.
The snake has a turquoise body, more than a foot long, a triangular head, a dense body covered with scales, and two snake teeth that emit a hint of cold light are exposed.
The most surprising thing is that this strange snake is a one-eyed snake, and the snake's eyes occupy half of the head, and there is a red light in it, revealing a strange smell.
The shimmer of red light flickered, and a whirlpool was faintly formed in its single eye, swirling and uncertain, as if it could attract people to it, and they could not extricate themselves.
Mo Yuntian just stared at the one-eyed for a while, and there was a feeling of dizziness in his head, which made him hurriedly look away, not daring to stare at the one-eyed one eye again.
"This strange snake is so weird, and that one-eyed is even more weird, and the bloody arrow just now is probably shot from this one-eye. Mo Yuntian's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze subconsciously fell on the place where the blood arrow was shot just now.
"This blood arrow is so corrosive!" Only a few moments have passed since the blood arrow was shot, and the stone wall has eroded a large crater and sunken into it.
"If you are shot just now, how can the flesh and blood resist it, I'm afraid it will come to naught in an instant!" Mo Yuntian looked at the stone wall, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.
He knew how hard the stone wall was, and he wanted to make a mark on it with his wolf fangs, but found that with the sharpness of the wolf fangs, he could only scratch a white mark on the stone wall, and he had to use all his strength.
This is enough to prove the terrifying power of the blood arrow.
"This strange snake doesn't seem to be simple, what should we do?" Li Yueying stood beside Mo Yuntian and muttered softly, not daring to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the other party.
"The blood arrows shot by this strange snake are too powerful, and the speed is so weird, I'm afraid we are not its opponents, and there is only one way to do it. Mo Yuntian frowned and said with a solemn face.
When Li Yueying heard this, she raised her eyebrows and couldn't wait to ask, "What way?"
"One word ......"
