Chapter 7: The Corpse Ground
In the evening, Gu Li held a stone spear made of wooden sticks and stones, standing under the woods and scratching his head, there was no good place to sleep nearby, this was a headache.
In the past half a month, Gu Li has lived in this deep forest, and he has dealt with those things a few times on the way, and now his fear of them is not as deep as when he first came, but he is still reluctant to approach, and he still knows how many catties and taels he has......
In the past half a month, he has never acted at night, so the current situation is a little embarrassing for him, almost all around is rubble, even there are few bushes, and he has never thought about sleeping on the trees.
"Whew...... It's hard to do......" He grimaced, he didn't want to be eaten by those things for supper at night.
Gu Li continued to walk forward, hoping to find a good place to sleep.
It didn't take long for the air to seem to be filled with a slight smell of blood, Gu Li frowned, his hair stood on end, this feeling was very bad for him, it was exactly the same as when he saw the fierce beast before, he stared ahead without squinting, but the night was shrouded, and he couldn't see anything.
"Whew~~" A howl startled the tense Gu Li.
Immediately afterwards, a series of howls poured into Gu Li's eardrums like sharp arrows, and at this time, three or four beasts with hideous faces had already appeared in Gu Li's sight - wolves!!
"Roar!!"
One of the wolves roared at Gu Li, and at Gu Li's distance, he could even see the minced flesh on its teeth, which was left by the last unlucky egg.
Before Gu Li could react, the wolf ran towards Gu Li, and Gu Li immediately swept the stone spear in his hand, blocking the wolf and kicking it sideways in the stomach. Maybe it's because of the strenuous exercise in the past half a month or something else, his physical fitness is several times better than before.
In the face of the wolf's pounce, I didn't feel very difficult.
The kick hurt the wolf, and he howled a few times and returned to his original position, and a few black lines appeared on his hideous face.
Gu Li looked at the four wild wolves coldly, took out a black gadget from the bamboo basket behind him, and then pulled the things inside, and the sparks were ignited instantly. He lit a torch, and white smoke flew up.
When the four wolves saw the firelight, most of them suddenly went down, and they looked at Gu Li with intent, not daring to act rashly.
Gu Li stared at them, he had no intention of turning back and running, with the endurance of the wolves, it was a sure thing to catch up with him, it was better to stalemate like this...... The torch in his hand was blazing, and it was estimated that it would not be long before it burned out.
In the next second, the sense of crisis struck again, Gu Li's eyes widened and he quickly turned around, just in time to see a wild wolf flying towards him.
And one more!!
The torch waved, and a stick struck the wolf's head, making a "squeak" sound, and the wolf was in pain, and hurriedly avoided it, only to see that a large part of the hair on its head was burned, revealing the flesh with burns.
Gu Li began to hesitate a little, since one came out, there might be more popping up, if he stayed here like this again, there was no guarantee that no wild wolves would come here. When the time comes, it's almost impossible to run again......
His heart sank as if it were filled with lead.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to leave the place first, and then he swiped the torch on the ground, and the dry wood on the ground was suddenly ignited, forming a line of separation.
Gu Li slowly retreated, not exposing his back to the group of beasts, but fortunately, the wolves had no intention of chasing, and soon disappeared from Gu Li's sight.
He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.
……
It was already late at night, and Gu Li still hadn't found a suitable place to live, so he was in a very depressed mood now.
Today's luck is really bad......
Thinking to himself, shuttling through the night, although he had been extra careful, he could not help but make some rustling sounds, which made him tremble for a while, it was good that he did not attract wild beasts, and if he did, he would go to someone to reason.
This is the first time to walk at night, I don't know if it's because of his sensitivity, he always feels that someone is staring at him, and even the air around him is a little chilly and can't help but speed up his pace.
After walking for nearly an hour, Gu Li was stunned when he looked at the things in front of him, he wiped his eyes with his fists with both hands, and was pleasantly surprised when he found that it was not an illusion. He took back his previous words, and he was so lucky today......
He saw a bright light, in the woods not far in front of him, and without much pause, he ran in that direction with his steps, and now he felt in his heart that there must be someone in the place of the light.
It's completely gone, and the careful appearance before -
In about ten minutes, Gu Li came to the place of light, he looked around, trying to find some traces of human life, but it was a pity - no!
This is a valley, dozens of feet deep, surrounded by bluestone moss, and dead branches and vines, the mountain casts a thick shadow, the faint moonlight cannot shine in at all, and the trees blur into black shadows, swaying wantonly in the cold night wind and rustling.
Gu Li stood on the top of the valley, frowning and looking motionless, this place gave him the feeling that it was only weird, nothing else.
He walked to the edge and looked down, and his pupils shook violently, it was a sea of fire, a raging sea of fire, and it turned out that the bright light came from it. Gu Li swallowed his saliva, thinking that there wouldn't be any fierce beasts in this place......
In the next second, he seemed to hear something, quickly shut his mouth, and then lay on the edge of the cliff and looked into the valley.
After a while, a woman in a black robe appeared in his sight, Gu Li's body for a while, more than half a month, he finally saw a living person!! However, he did not act rashly, and still lay on it and watched.
The woman in black pushed aside the bushes and came to the edge of the sea of fire, the corners of her mouth curled, and she smiled. "It's finally done, it's not in vain that I've been supplementing materials this year~~"
With that, she raised her sleeves and waved, and the wind struck, blowing away the sea of fire in an instant, revealing what was inside. Gu Li covered his mouth and nose, forcibly endured the discomfort in his heart, and his body trembled wildly.
Corpse! Inside is a mountain of corpses!!
"Hmm......" Gu Li still didn't spit it out despite forbearance, but when he looked at the woman in black again, his heart had changed a lot-demon!!
The woman in black smiled with satisfaction when she saw this pile of corpses, the evil aura here was already thick to an extraordinary level. "It's a little far away, but at least it's off to a good start...... It shouldn't take long to refine the Purple Zombie......"
She looked at the corpses in the corpse yard with a frenzy in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed them.
"But before that, why were there mortals in such a place?" As soon as the voice fell, he turned into a ghost and disappeared in place.
