Chapter 166: Sinkhole
Phantom Territory.
The men of a village were staring at us closely, and I hadn't come up with a solution yet, and the expression on my face was getting more and more anxious.
The big men also walked up, and just as they were about to blast me out, they heard a roar in the distance behind me.
The roar echoed all around, and after a few seconds, it gradually disappeared, and all the villagers were stunned, and I was also stunned, lamenting that God had finally helped me, and it was still at such a critical juncture.
The village chief glanced outside the village, and the villagers who had just stood guard also climbed onto the sentry and looked through binoculars.
"Village chief, that's the voice of the bear's mate, it seems that there are really bears on our mountain."
The villagers standing guard shouted at the village chief.
I breathed a sigh of relief that my lie had been established.
The village chief, supported by a few people, walked quickly to my side and said, "Did you really see a bear?" ”
"Don't you even hear me?"
I put on an indifferent appearance, but the village chief was not moved, and said to the people around me, "Gather a few good hands, take the guys to the back mountain to have a look, if you see a bear, kill it, and sell it for a good price, remember not to go near the sinkhole." ”
"Okay, village chief, I'll arrange it right away."
"Come with me, young man."
The village chief motioned for me to follow him, and when we reached his house, he poured me a large bowl of water.
I was not polite, I picked up the bowl and drank it, the village chief smiled and put the bowl away and said, "It seems that I am really thirsty, I have a lot of water, don't worry, young man, where are you from?" ”
"Oh, I'm from North Lantaut."
The village chief looked puzzled, obviously he had lived here for a long time, had never been out all year round, and had never heard of those cities in the outside world at all, not to mention that this place was still an illusion.
"I don't seem to have heard of it, why did you come here to explore, there is a man-eating sinkhole in the back mountain, don't you know?"
Man-eating sinkholes? I was stunned for a moment, looked at him suspiciously, and pretended to know, "What do you say about the village chief?" I've heard of this sinkhole, but I don't know if it's true or not, so I came to test it, could it be that this sinkhole will really eat people? ”
The village chief nodded and said, "Yes, one night thirty years ago, everyone in the village was sleeping soundly, and suddenly felt a bright light in front of us, we quickly got up and took a look, and found that there was such a big ball in the sky, blood red and bloody, and it smashed on the back mountain, forming a huge hole, bottomless, and there was a lot of sensation at that time, and then someone organized an investigation team to investigate the scene, but before much investigation, I heard the sound of water under the hole, and when someone hung a rope to go down to see, it was said that there was no water in it at all. Instead, it was all blood, and there were many dead bones. ”
"We don't believe in evil, thinking that these experts are all deceitful, so we organized our own people in the village to investigate, and it turned out that the blood would seep to the ground, it was a rainy day, and a group of us who went to investigate came back, including me and another brother who had been dead for several years."
"When we reported this to the experts above, they all laughed at me, and they were about to move the machine in the sinkhole to investigate deeply, but they didn't find it, and even they were swallowed by the blood oozing from the ground, and the blood seemed to have magical power, so the whole person, not to mention how badly it was burned."
