Chapter 27, Phantom of the Strange Bird.
Just when the three of them didn't know why, a shrill cry came from the bottom of the cliff.
The voice was extremely high-pitched, like a crying ghost, which was terrifying.
Lin Zhan trembled, instinctively raised his arm to protect the second girl and retreated, as the three of them moved away, the fog under the cliff was like a huge wave surging, and a huge black shadow suddenly rushed out like a giant whale breaking the waves.
Lin Zhan stared at it, only to see that what flew out was a huge strange bird, the bird had a human face, its feet were like human hands, its fingertips were sharp as knives, and its wings were four or five zhang long.
Lin Zhan had never seen such a huge bird, this bird was large in size, and the Tao was acceptable, but the key was that this bird had a huge human head, fiery red hair, and a big face that looked like a devil was really terrifying.
The human-faced bird grabbed a stone that emitted a faint blue light, let out a wail, flapped its wings and flew high, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, ignoring Lin Zhan and the others at all.
Fang Qingxue held the crescent moon pendant high, "Brother Lin Zhan, look, the pendant is not bright."
Lin Zhan looked at the crescent moon pendant that was gradually losing its light, and then glanced at the direction where the human-faced bird flew away, it seemed that the blue stone in the claws of the human-faced bird was the spirit stone, but what was the use of the spirit stone for this human-faced bird? Could it be that it is used for cultivation?
"The stone of the human-faced bird was taken from the bottom of the cliff? Is there a vein of spirit stone under the cliff? Lin Zhan walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down carefully, and the mist stirred up by the human-faced bird began to slowly fall back to the bottom of the valley, condensing but not dissipating.
Looking at these mists, Lin Zhan couldn't help but think of the big gourd that the black-clothed young man was carrying.
He never understood in his heart how the black-clothed young man released those condensed mist, and then Lin Zhan thought that the strangeness in it was very likely to be in the gourd, but it was thrilling all the way, and there was no time to study it carefully.
Seeing these thick fogs at this moment, I couldn't help but move my mind.
Since the big gourd was able to release mist, there must be a way to take it back.
In this way, the fog under this cliff can be taken away, revealing its true face, and it will be convenient to go down at that time.
Thinking of this, he took out the big black gourd from the space spirit jade, opened the mouth of the gourd, and silently injected a spiritual power into it.
Unfortunately, the result was not as he expected, the big gourd did not move, neither sprayed nor smoked, like a dead thing.
Lin Zhan frowned, and said in his heart, is this thing the same as Lingyu, what kind of mental formula is needed?
Fang Qingxue saw Lin Zhan standing on the edge of the cliff holding a black gourd and couldn't stop watching, comparing and gesturing, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, "Brother Lin Zhan, what's so strange about this gourd?" ”
Lin Zhan turned to face her, "I can't say it for a while......"
Before he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Fang Qingxue's chest.
Fang Qingxue saw Lin Zhan staring at her chest, her face suddenly turned red, "Don't look at people like this, people are not used to it." ”
Since Lin Zhan knew that she was her daughter, she no longer hid when she spoke in front of Lin Zhan, revealing her daughter's state in real time.
Seeing Lin Zhan staring at Fang Qingxue's chest, Han Rubing, who was not far away, suddenly became annoyed and angry, jumped over, and scolded, "Lin Zhan, don't you take your dog eyes away?" ”
Lin Zhan raised his hand and pointed at Fang Qingxue's chest, "Xiaoxue, look, the pendant is lit up again." ”
Fang Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Lin Zhan was looking at the crescent pendant.
She blushed and looked down, and saw that a hazy light appeared on the crescent moon pendant.
It's just that this light is faint and faint, not as bright as when the human-faced bird appeared before.
"Xiaoxue, you get closer to the edge of the cliff." Lin Zhan said.
Fang Qingxue snorted, and cautiously approached the edge of the cliff, as she approached, the crescent moon pendant suddenly brightened up a little more.
"Take a few steps back."
Fang Qingxue did as she said and slowly took a few steps back.
The light on the crescent moon pendant suddenly became faint again, and if you didn't look closely, it would be the same as usual.
"There must be spirit stones under this cliff, and there are more than one or two pieces, maybe a lot of them."
"Daydreaming, how rare are spirit stones, how can there be so many at once?" Han Rubing snorted coldly, obviously a little dissatisfied with Lin Zhan.
Lin Zhan didn't care, and looked around with his own care, but saw a huge rock not far away, standing obliquely not far from the cliff.
"Rest near the boulder first, and then I will cut some vines and climb down the cliff."
"Brother Lin Zhan, that's too dangerous." Fang Qingxue said worriedly.
"People in the world often say that wealth is sought in danger, if you don't take risks, where can you get precious and rare things?"
Fang Qingxue got along with Lin Zhan for a few days, and knew that Lin Zhan had a stubborn temper, so she no longer stopped him.
Cold as ice glanced at the smoky cliffs, "This kid ...... It's quite bold. ”
Just as Lin Zhan cut down the tree vines, the terrible chirping of the human-headed bird came from the top of his head again, and then the huge black shadow of the human-headed bird swept over the heads of Lin Zhan and the others, and plunged headlong into the bottom of the cliff.
Lin Zhan dropped the vines, flew to the edge of the cliff, and looked down, only to see that there were still any human-faced birds in the rolling mist.
"How deep is this valley? With the huge size of the human-faced bird, it was only for a moment that it could not be seen. Lin Zhan was amazed in his heart, and returned to the boulder thoughtfully, "I have changed my plan, let's observe the law of the human-faced bird's activities here first, and then make a plan." ”
Fang Qingxue nodded in agreement, and snorted coldly as cold as ice, noncommittal.
After waiting for about half an hour, the human-faced bird flew out of the mist, and as before, it grabbed a spirit stone under its claws and flew into the distance.
Lin Zhan looked into the distance, looking at the direction in which the human-faced bird disappeared and fell into deep thought.
Fang Qingxue and Han Rubing looked around, and when they walked to the edge of the cliff, they beckoned Lin Zhan to come over, "Look, there are blood stains here." ”
Lin Zhan retracted his thoughts, came to Han Rubing's side, and looked in the direction of her finger, only to see a large pool of black and red blood on the edge of the cliff at some point, and a rust-like smell came to his nose.
The blood was stained and splashed, apparently spilled.
Lin Zhan and Han Rubing glanced at each other, "Could it be that the human-faced bird was injured below?" ”
At the same time, the two of them were extremely shocked in their hearts, that human-faced bird was definitely the largest and strongest existence among the demon beasts they had ever seen, and if they wanted to hurt such a bird of prey, how strong would they have to be? Could it be that there is a stronger presence in the valley below this cliff?
Lin Zhan took a deep breath and said slowly, "I have a plan......
"Is your plan really viable? It's been two hours, and the human-faced bird doesn't have any serious injuries. Seeing the human-faced bird fly out of the valley under the cliff with the spirit stone again, Fang Qingxue said with some disappointment.
