"Crunch, crunch......"

A sound that seemed to have broken dead wood approached. It was also accompanied by a subtle ticking sound, which was exactly the same as the sound that Xihua's apprentice heard in his dream.

Xihua's apprentice's heart tightened, and his misty sleepiness was swept away, and he wanted to call others. But when she turned her head and saw the dark night, she hesitated for a moment, but still didn't make a sound, only secretly clenched the thin sword in her sleeve.

Suddenly, his shoulders sank, and he was patted, and Su Yunqing's voice sounded softly in his ears: "Did you hear the voice over there?" ”

Xihua's apprentice nodded again and again, and asked nervously, "What is it?" ”

"An uninvited guest dining." Su Yunqing's eyes stared at the depths of the darkness, and said, "You quietly go away, go to find Ah Xi, be careful not to make a sound, if it is discovered, I can't save you." ”

Xihua's apprentice was stunned for a while, and after Su Yunqing's explanation, she found that the sound not far away turned out to be the sound of blood dripping and bones chewing. She suddenly felt a chill all over her body, barely managed to calm her mind, and carefully moved back.

On the other side, Su Yunqing found Wei Ji and informed him to leave.

Tonight's night watchman is He Banxian, who has already become the food in the mouth of the "guest", so there is no need to inform him again.

Su Yunqing stood in a hidden corner, watching the ugly monster gnaw the corpse to pieces, and secretly clenched her fists.

After a while, she tiptoed back, and then used her skills to catch up with the group in the distance.

"What is it?" Jiang Chen asked.

"A ghoul." Su Yunqing replied.

Jiang Chen's expression changed slightly: "Jizo has caught up?" ”

"Not yet. That thing was just the vanguard of the pathfinder, and Jizo himself probably hadn't pulled out yet. Let's go a little faster and we should be able to shake them off. ”

"Let's go!"

With Jiang Chen's order, everyone immediately set off and plunged into the vast night.

The night is vast, and the shadows of the distant mountains are like entrenched beasts, waiting for their prey to fall into the net.

The cold mountain wind blew in the ears, and people rushed between the mountains, without stopping all the way, and ran dozens of miles away in one breath.

The night is over, the sky is about to dawn, it is dawn, but there is no sunlight in sight.

Looking back, the sky seemed to be a pile of lead-gray blocks, and the clouds were overcast and low, casting large shadows on the ground, covering the land for thousands of miles in the distance.

It is the paradise of the dead, the realm of the dead.

Jiang Chen stood at the foot of the cliff, silently looking at the pitch-black sky above his head, his eyes full of blood-like crimson.

On the side, Su Yunqing squatted down and tidied up his trouser legs, glanced back, and muttered, "It's so fast......"

The black clouds moved in this direction, and the shadow rose from the valley floor, spreading halfway up the mountain, threatening to drown the entire peak.

The shadows were filled with the cold and rancid smell of the forest, accompanied by the wails of countless ghosts, like a huge black monster awakening from the abyss.

"What are you doing in a daze, keep walking!" Su Yunqing saw Jiang Chen standing in a daze, and couldn't help but shout.

Jiang Chen drew out his long sword and said in a deep voice: "You guys go first, I'll stay and break the back!" ”

"Don't do it!" Su Yunqing stretched out her hand and grabbed his arm, "Jizo hasn't discovered us yet, but as soon as she shows up, she will rush over immediately, and we are not her opponents together!" ”

"She's targeting me, I don't want to bother you......"

"Humph! What are you pretending to be high, do you even affect us less? If it weren't for Ah Xi, I wouldn't bother to care about you! Less nonsense, go! ”

Su Yunqing's arm was strong, and she dragged Jiang Chen to the back of the mountain.

As soon as the group's footsteps left, the shadow rising from the valley floor engulfed the cliff.

Countless ghosts, ghouls, and skeletons poured in, and the place fell into a ghost domain.

In the yin wind of the call sign, a tall corpse wrapped in dense bone armor will climb the hillside, and the nose with only one hole left inhales sharply, as if it has found something, and the two blue phosphorus fires in the eye hole suddenly jumped, burning more vigorously.

"The smell of the living...... "It hissed as it raised a heavy dragon's spine greatsword and gave the order to the undead to hurry up.

The shadow of the black cloud chased the footsteps of Jiang Chen and his party, through the lush jungle, through the barren wilderness, flooding the canyon, swallowing the river, leaving patches of black barren land in the pass, the trees withered, everything was bleak, and the living beings were silent.

The bones of long-dead and newly dead were awakened, crawled out of the black dirt, and joined the ranks of the undead.

The sun sets and the moon rises, and once again twilight falls.

When the cold moonlight fell on the people, everyone felt extremely tired.

On this day, they ran wildly for more than a hundred miles without eating or drinking, and they were attacked by demon beasts on the way, and their minds were always in a tense state, but they could not escape the pursuit of the shadow behind them.

The endless exodus was frustrating, the people were silent, and an atmosphere of despair crept up in the ranks.

Lin Xi couldn't hold on a little anymore.

With only a third-order physique, her body and will are close to the limit.

Her steps slowed down, her consciousness began to drift, she slowly felt that the road in front of her became blurred, her body moved forward mechanically, but her soul drifted to a distant place.

"Ah Xi!"

Su Yunqing's exclamation woke Lin Xi up, and then his wrist tightened, and he was violently grabbed by Su Yunqing.

Lin Xi staggered to his feet, and then found that there was a steep landslide rift under his feet, and if he stepped on it, he would inevitably fall off the cliff.

"Yunqing, thank you......" Lin Xi squeezed out a smile weakly, looked back, and saw that the dark clouds in the sky were still some distance away, so he said, "I really can't walk, let's rest for a while!" ”

Jiang Chen walked up to her and said, "Miss Lin, I'll carry you." ”

"Well, wouldn't it be too good......" Although Lin Xi had been recited by Jiang Chen many times, he still felt embarrassed when there were many people.

"Very bad!" Su Yunqing hurriedly said, "Ah Xi, I'll carry you!" Brother, you have to avoid suspicion! ”

The group continued on their way.

Before leaving, Xihua's apprentice turned back with courage and glanced at the barren slopes and mountains stretching high and low in the distance, countless shadows in the vast night were swaying in the bleak wind, and the dead souls were crying and walking to the end. The murmur of the cold wind accompanies the footsteps of the coming death.

In such an atmosphere, she couldn't help but feel a sad coldness in her heart, trembling and looking forward to the arrival of dawn.

At this time, Su Yunqing was suddenly heard shouting, "There is someone in front!" A lot of people, more than thirty! ”

Jiang Chen was shocked: "Is it the chasing soldiers of the Futu Sect?" ”

"It's not! It's the breath of a living person! Look at their banners! Ah Xi, I should have come to you! ”

Lin Xi showed a look of anticipation: "I hope it is the people from the Lin family who come to pick up!" ”
