Chapter 65: Anyone
In the place where Wu Yan had just placed the token, a huge hole appeared, which was more than ten zhang high. The void appeared here and there, like someone had dug a piece out of the air.
Ash was constantly floating out of the hollow and sprinkling one after another. There was a strange smell all around, like decaying clothes that had been in the closet for years. Zhao Ling covered his nose with a champa, but his eyes were staring at the hollow.
After a long time, the ashes did not fly out again, and a huge lake appeared in the distance, and the water of the lake was as black as pine ink.
There is a large island above the lake, and the island is full of ruins and decay. Above the Big Island, there are gray clouds floating and sinking, and it is from here that the ashes fall.
Zhao Ling and Yun Ming glanced at each other, and said sharply: "Your Excellency, the door here has been opened, and the two of us will enter according to the agreement, please restrain your subordinates, otherwise it will be a little unsightly to fight." ”
Yun Ming sneered, "I wanted to say this earlier, but since Zhao Guiren has already spoken, Yun will not repeat it." Please. ”
The bald man glanced at the other party resentfully, and followed closely behind Zhao Ling. In the battle that day, Yun Ming was in danger of killing him. The strong man has a simple heart, and he is not as forbearant as Zhao Ling, so he has always glared at Yun Ming angrily.
The two teams entered one by one, keeping some distance from each other. Wu Yan patted the soil on his body and prepared to enter with Chu Ji. At this time, Zhang Yuan walked over and said in a low voice, "Come in later, in case there is any fame, so that these people can jump first." ”
Wu Yan nodded, anyway, what he gets after entering has nothing to do with him, it is better to follow behind more calmly.
The group carefully walked into the entrance of the cave, and the surrounding area was gray, and everyone's heart was covered with a shadow.
The place is full of the smell of death, and in two words, it is decay. Looking at the ruins on the island, everyone inevitably sighed. Even though this Heavenly Sect had been endlessly brilliant, time had ruthlessly annihilated everything here.
Wu Yan was the last to enter, carefully following everyone's footprints, and specially wearing the exquisite armor on his body, the last time he was injured by Lin Ruoshi, he suffered the loss of not wearing armor.
Since I had Chu Ji, I have been quite careful in doing things. Wu Jian now finally understands why some people act aggressively when they are young, and they will be much more restrained when they have children. Without him, it's just responsibility.
I don't know what method Tianzong has used in this space, but it is hidden, and there is not the slightest flaw from the outside. If you don't have a token in hand, who knows that there is no cave here.
Walking on the ground covered with ashes, there was silence all around, except for the rustling footsteps of everyone. In the distance, the lake is dark, and there are eight stone bridges leading to the islands in the lake. What is disturbing is that the ink-like lake is as calm as a mirror.
Chu Ji rode on Wu Gan's neck, turned his head and looked around curiously. She grew up in the barren tombs since she was a child, and she was not afraid of these places, but she liked them inexplicably.
"Brother, there's a ...... on there Person. Chu Ji pointed uncertainly to the island in the distance.
In such a quiet place, Chu Ji's words were like thunder, and everyone was frightened and looked in the direction it was pointing. But the ruins were empty, and no one was moving.
Wu Ganjue's scalp was a little numb, and he asked cautiously, "Is there really someone?" "In this seemingly lifeless place, if there were real people, what kind of existence would it be.
Emotions are contagious, and soon everyone present was a little panicked, even the bald man, his face became serious.
Zhao Ling and Yun Ming hurriedly walked in front of Wu Gan, "Little sister, but what did you see?" At this time, even if Zhao Ling was so bold, he couldn't help but hesitate.
"Hmm." Glancing at Wu Gan, Chu Ji hesitated, "Like a human, but not like a human." ”
"Whether it's moving, how many." Yun Ming beside him also felt a little tricky.
Chu Ji stretched his neck, his fingers dotted in the air, as if he was counting. Watching her keep pointing, everyone's hearts fell to the freezing point. If there really is a monster that everyone can't see, how many of them must be?
After a while, Chu Ji said with some embarrassment: "I only counted more than ten, they are too fast, they will appear and hide for a while." ”
The old man who was holding the token came over and said suspiciously, "Did you really see it?" ”
Chu Ji was a little unhappy, and said angrily: "I really saw it." ”
The old man wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhao Ling, "I would rather believe it, I have seen in an ancient book that these claustrophobic places are often haunted by resentful ghosts, and over time, resentment turns into demons, which is really difficult to control, but the soul master can restrain it." It's a pity that this trip was in a hurry, and there was no soul master with him. ”
Soul masters are not treated well in the world, they are already rare, and Zhao Ling's words can only be a moaning without illness.
Just when everyone was silent, the old man stood up again, "Before coming, the old man was worried about the difficulty of this trip, but he borrowed a Horcrux from a friend, and it can't be of any use. ”
Zhao Ling was overjoyed, "Take it out quickly." ”
The old man stretched out his hand and took out a cloth flag, which was full of evil ghosts, "And follow me, if the banner moves, there is an evil spirit approaching, as long as it is not too strong, the long banner can be stopped." ”
"Okay, lead the way." Zhao Ling was a little anxious, seeing that the last trembling was over, it was possible that he would return in vain because of the evil spirits, "Wu Gan, you take Chu Ji to follow behind the flag, if there is anything abnormal, it is better to warn in time." ”
Wu Yan, who was originally hiding behind the team and fishing, was stunned, why did you let me take the lead, but there was no door, and I was greasy and crooked and refused to come forward. Several Inhumans turned unkind, and even Yun Ming's eyes flickered. At this time, blocking people's financial paths is tantamount to killing their father's enemies.
"This bad sister, what are you doing hiding here." Chu Ji suddenly pointed to Wu Yan's feet.
Wu Gen turned his head and saw that his figure was obviously a little thicker, and at this time, he didn't understand that the woman who was good at hiding next to Yun Ming was beside him at this time.
"Yun Ming, what do you mean?" Wu Gen said coldly.
Yun Ming smiled slightly, "It's just a guard, there is Gu You by your side, you can come forward with confidence." ”
Wu Yan sneered: "Okay, thank you Brother Yun for your thoughtfulness, it seems that I can't be a pioneer today, and I can't say that I can't be dismembered by someone." As he spoke, he strode forward, Zhang Yuan and Sha Pestle did not say a word, and followed behind Wu Qian, blocking everyone as if there was nothing.
With a warm heart, Wu Yan patted Chu Ji's calf, and his mouth was on the ground. Chu Ji realized and quietly pointed to a place underground. This little girl is already sensitive, although she has not seen much of the world, she can keenly perceive the malice of other people, and instantly understands what her brother means.
With a choking sound, Wu Gan's hand broke off the knife from its sheath and suddenly pierced it where Chu Ji was pointing.
With a scream, a black shadow quickly broke away from Wu Gan's side, fled to Yun Ming's side, and transformed into a woman, holding her arm with her hand and staring at Wu Gen fiercely.
"What does that mean?" Yun Ming's face sank.
Wu Yan gently shook off the blood on the tip of the knife and squinted at Yun Ming, "Remember, I don't like to be threatened by people in my life, especially the idea of beating the people around me. If you get annoyed, no matter how male or female, you dare to poke a few holes, and even I dare to overturn it on this day. The words secretly warned Zhao Ling.
Looking at Wu Gan, who had a sudden attack, everyone was silent and secretly vigilant.
Zhao Ling is such a thoughtful person, not only was he not annoyed when he heard this, but he smiled and said: "Wu Gan, if you help me on this trip, I will help her solve it in Chu Ji's Ding Ji, and I will ensure that the two of you are worry-free in Zhao Kingdom." ”
This is a pain point for Wu Gan, Chu Ji went to Zhao with him, and he has no Ding nationality, if he is a concubine, I am afraid that he will delay the child, so he thought about looking for water from the moon.
When she was in Dingyuan City, she had already offended Qin Junshou, and she was just one person, she should run away, she should kill, but with a Chu Ji, she can't let her follow her to the end of the world.
When the love between children is long, the hero is also short of breath.
Wu Yan nodded and walked behind the old man. When the group reached the lake, they stopped again and looked ahead with solemn expressions. There are some jade figurines on the shore, with intricate patterns on them. The corners of the figurine's mouth were cracked, his eyes were pitch black, and he showed an indescribable smile, and his eyes looked at this world empty.
When I approached carefully, the figurines were all gray, and it was clear that they had lost their spirituality. The old man lightly touched a jade figurine with his foot, and its surface cracked, and a pile of dust flew up.
Everyone hurriedly retreated in fright, each holding their blades on guard, for fear that some monster would jump out of it. After the dust passed, only a pile of residue remained of the jade figurines, and a corpse was exposed.
The corpse was lifelike, dressed in a very simple way, very different from today, with his hands crossed in front of his chest, lying quietly on the ground.
Wu Yan stepped forward cautiously, picked up a stone and threw it over, just hitting the corpse. The corpse quickly deflated, and its body quickly turned black, and soon all of its clothes and flesh were turned into powder, leaving only a few bones like jade fat.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Ling said in a deep voice, "It is inevitable that there will be antiquities left in these figurines, and if you are so reckless, won't you destroy everything." ”
Wu Gan put down another stone in his hand, who let these corpses be so untouched.
"Open all the figurines carefully and inspect them carefully." As soon as Zhao Ling gave the order, his subordinates moved, looked for the jade figurines along the lake, and carefully pried them open with knives. Yun Ming was not far behind, and his subordinates also took action.
Seeing that these people were busy, Wu Gen walked to the lake boredly and looked at the inky water.
"This jade figurine has been opened a long time ago." Suddenly, a heavy rider shouted, and everyone heard it and hurried over. Sure enough, the jade figurine was split in two, and the inside was empty.
Sha Pestle swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with difficulty: "Is it possible that there are still people alive." ”
Everyone looked at each other and got goosebumps, what kind of monster would this be if anyone was still alive.
Soon, everyone will check the nearby jade figurines one by one, a total of more than 60 jade figurines, ten of which have been opened.
Zhao Ling took out a transparent crystal the size of a goose egg, and the crystal emitted halos. Walked in front of a jade figurine and swept the crystal over the corpse, not even letting go of the patterns on the jade figurines.
Yun Ming smiled slightly, "I didn't expect that the noble man still had some things, but he copied everything without moving the corpse." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the crow that had been landing on his shoulder flew up, his eyes flashing red, and he also flew under the corpse, obviously similar to the crystal in Zhao Ling's hand.
After a while, the two of them finished copying and began to ask people to rummage through the corpses. The corpses must have been so old that they would have been reduced to a pile of ashes at the slightest movement.
After searching for a long time, I found a bunch of objects, including jade pendants that had lost their luster, short swords with strange shapes, pages of unknown materials, and so on.
Zhao Ling looked at Yun Ming, "This place is still the periphery, it should be where the low-level people are, I believe that there are more artifacts on the island, how about collecting them together and then distributing them, you and I can send someone to take care of them." ”
Yun Ming smiled, "There is no need." ”
The two were so harmonious, but Wu Gan, who wanted to see the two pinched up, was a little disappointed.
The lake was so large that it could not be swept away for a while, so everyone walked towards the stone bridge. But after looking for a long time, seven of them have collapsed, only one is good, but there is a large gap in the center of the bridge deck, how can this be good, such a big lake, and there is no ferry, it is difficult to fly over.
Fly over? Yun Ming and Zhao Ling's eyes lit up at the same time.
Soon, the crow flew through the gap with the rope in his mouth, and fastened the sleeve at the other end of the rope to the sturdy-looking pier. Several times like this, a simple rope bridge was built.
The crowd carefully stepped on the rope and prepared to cross the bridge deck.
At this moment, the calm and waveless water of the lake rippled, and something faintly emerged from the water.
