Chapter 10: The Valley of the Lost (1)
In the early morning, the mountains are full of fog, the morning sun rises slowly, and the thick fog also dissipates with the warm sun, revealing the original color of the mountain.
There is only one cliff halfway up the mountainside, and above the cliff, there is still a thick ribbon of mist like milk, floating in the air. When the probe is looking down, the naked eye cannot see through the dense fog to see the situation under the cliff.
At the foot of the cliff is a valley full of dry bones. There were birds, beasts, and even human bones. The various weapons scattered next to the skeleton, as well as the strange postures, prove that they went through a terrible fight before they died, and those broken bones fully confirm this.
The light at the bottom of the valley is not very good, and the fog surrounds it, and the dry bones are all over it, and if you are not careful, you will step on one, making a crisp sound, and the sound will expand through the valley, and it can be frightening if you are not careful.
Tang Zixi had a bitter face, and he hesitated to put down his right foot, wanting to find a place without dry bones to settle down, looked left and right, still sighed, carefully put down his right foot, which was hanging a little sore, and made a crisp sound of 'click' again.
The voice made her grin again.
She didn't want to desecrate these white bones, after all, Miss Tang still firmly believed in the saying that 'people have souls'.
It's not that she has much respect for these deceased, it's entirely because this girl is timid. Not to mention anything else, it's just that one or two things are randomly drilled out of those bones, and a silent glance at her is enough for her.
Looking up at the sky, it was still gray. In the distance, rolling hills can be seen, but all around are cliffs, and there are no paths to pass. There is no way to avoid these things. When she came, the road was twisted and turned, and she had already been blinded by Yunyi who led the way. Even if you want to go back, you can't go. There was no other way to leave this hellish place than to follow him forward.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at it resentfully, and buried her head in the back of the front.
Seeing that the other party only cared about himself and walked forward, he didn't notice that he hadn't kept up, and his sturdy back was about to be drowned by the thicker and thicker fog, Tang Zixi's eyes flashed, and finally he gritted his teeth and asked loudly: "How long do we have to go?"
Her voice rumbled through the valley, and it seemed that her voice was coming from all directions, as if many of them were constantly asking, 'How long do you have to go, how long do you have to go?'......
Tang Zixi was startled by his own voice, covered his mouth in panic, didn't pay attention to his feet, and a large puff of bones was crushed by her.
But she couldn't care about it, her eyes were full of panic. Because, she felt a gust of wind blowing behind her, and she was chilling.
"If you don't want to die, it's better to shut up!" Yun Yi, who had been silent and led the way in front, finally stopped, but did not look back, paused, and said in a muffled voice, "I will go out in about half an hour." However, I would like to remind you that this last part of the road is extremely difficult to walk, and you better be prepared. ”
Tang Zixi pursed his lips tightly, just nodded obediently, and in the blink of an eye, he was frightened again by Yun Yi's words.
Along the way, she didn't know how many bones she had broken and how many times she had recited 'Amitabha' in her heart. It's really hard to imagine what kind of difficult way to walk in his mouth's 'extremely difficult to walk'.
Seeing the other party's figure disappear in the mist, he couldn't help but hurriedly say, "You wait for me!" Before the words fell, he already ran towards the place where Yunyi disappeared with a crisp 'click' sound.
When she ran to the place where Yun Yi was standing before, she suddenly stopped, and understood why Yun Yi would say that the last part of the road was extremely difficult to walk.
In front of me was a deep ditch that meandered through, and on the other side of the ravine, it was completely different from the bone-covered situation here. It was full of waist-deep grass, and the middle was full of flowers, colorful and colorful, like a piece of colorful brocade spread into the distance.
Tang Zixi looked down at the deep ditch at his feet, the water inside was dark and dark, and he didn't know how deep it was.
She hesitantly put down her raised right foot, stood on tiptoe, stretched her neck and tried to look ahead, but Yun Yi's figure was long gone.
I don't know why, walking on that pile of white bones, she can barely bear it, but looking at the flowers on the other side, she suddenly has some heart palpitations.
There was a deathly silence all around, as if he was the only one left in heaven and earth.
It is better to ask for others than for yourself!
Tang Zixi folded his slightly trembling hands on his chest, kept exhaling and inhaling, and tried to calm the heart that was about to jump out of his chest in his own way.
Obviously, Miss Tang's unique method is still very effective, and her heartbeat, which was a little out of control before, has finally calmed down.
She raised her sleeve and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, hesitated for a while, but still crossed her heart horizontally, stepped across the deep ditch, and stood on the edge of the colorful brocade.
Who knows, before she could catch her breath, a hand suddenly reached out from the grass and pulled her suddenly.
Tang Zixi's whole person was suddenly pulled to the ground and smashed into the grass solidly.
The exclamation in her mouth didn't have time to rush out of her mouth. The hand reached out again, covering her mouth in time, and a deliberately suppressed voice warned in her ear: "If you don't want to die, just bear with it!" This voice is very familiar, Tang Zixi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, and the hand slowly let go.
She turned her head and saw that it was Yunyi who had disappeared. At this moment, he was half-crouching in the grass, looking out through the gap in the long grass.
I just fell into the grass, and although it looked heavy, it didn't hurt because there was thick grass underneath. So she immediately got up and looked at Yun Yi, but saw nothing.
After waiting for a long time, I saw that Yunyi was like a wood carving, and he maintained that posture motionlessly.
Tang Zixi couldn't help but stretch out his hand and carefully tugged at the corner of his clothes. Yun Yi tilted his head to look at it, his eyes were inquiring.
Tang Zixi pointed at him, and then pointed outside, his eyes rolled around, and the meaning was obvious.
Yun Yi frowned, but he also knew that if he didn't give this restless lord an answer, he was afraid that he wouldn't stop easily. I had to take her hand impatiently, to refer to the pen, and wrote two words 'wolf' in the palm of her hand.
Hiss –
Miss Tang couldn't help but gasp, she didn't expect it to be this kind of thing.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she could even imagine the scene of the wild wolf with its bloody mouth and white teeth baring its teeth swooping towards her......
Yun Yi heard the movement on his side and glanced back suspiciously.
Miss Tang, who was still happy and eager to try before, turned blue at the moment, her eyes were particularly wide, and the two rows of pearl-like teeth kept colliding, making a crisp 'gurgling' sound.
What's going on?
Yun Yi was confused by this eldest lady. But at this moment, he didn't care about studying this person's thoughts, because he had already heard a slight whistle, and his face was overjoyed, and without hesitation, he pushed away the long grass and flew away in the direction from which the sound came.
Yunyi, who was several feet away in one breath, felt that something was wrong with the movement. looked back, and sure enough, I didn't see the eldest lady follow, and a trace of anger instantly appeared in my eyes. Then I didn't know what I thought, sighed, and went back the same way, still ready to find the eldest lady.
Who knows, just a few steps back, Tang Zixi, who looked anxious, appeared in his sight, and when he saw him, he tried to squeeze out a flattering smile on his face.
However, that smile was worse than crying.
Yun Yi was rarely stunned by her.
At this moment, another whistle sounded, this time much faster.
Yun Yi didn't have time to think about it, grabbed Tang Zixi's wrist and dragged her quickly towards the direction where the whistle came.
Tang Zixi was dragged by him and staggered, the long grass on both sides kept scratching her face, hands, and arms, and the blood stains were particularly eye-catching on the fair skin, and the wound was soaked in sweat, and it hurt hotly.
However, Miss Tang, who had been dressed and fed since she was a child, was stunned and didn't say a word, and let Yunyi drag her away.
The whistle kept coming, and Yun Yi's footsteps became faster and faster.
I don't know how long it took, Yun Yi finally stopped, and then took out a black whistle from his neck, quickly put it in his mouth and blew it, and the loud whistle came far away.
I could only hear the sound of horses' hooves, and several horsemen were already galloping towards us.
Yun Yi blew the whistle from time to time to guide those people.
Tang Zixi hunched his waist, clutching his somewhat swelling heart, panting in his mouth, unable to say a word. However, what she could see was that she was about to leave the sea of flowers at this moment, and not far away was the Gobi Desert covered with black sand.
The fog seemed to have spirituality, only shrouded in the sky above this sea of flowers, but the black Gobi area was not offended, and there was not a trace of fog running across the boundary.
The constant whistle signaled that the group was very close.
Yun Yi didn't rush out of the edge of the sea of flowers, nor did he blow the black whistle again, but pulled Tang Zixi to squat down again, hide in the long grass, and look out through the gap.
Soon, five men on horseback and armed with weapons ran to the vicinity, all dressed in black and masked, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
When Yun Yi saw these people, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he quietly pressed Tang Zixi's head down, and he slowly lowered his figure.
"The sound is clearly coming from around here!"
Several people rode back and forth a few times, and one of the men carrying a cooked copper rod couldn't help but mutter.
"Could it be discovered by the rabbit cub?" the other man stepped forward and took a look at the sea of flowers.
"Fourth, go over and take a look!" A burly man in black put down the black whistle he was holding in his hand and pointed to the misty sea of flowers in front of him.
When the man in black heard this, not only did he not move forward, but instead controlled the horse and took a few steps back, glanced at the calm sea of flowers with palpitations, and said a little nervously: "Big brother, maybe that kid has already run out." Let's look around!"
"Fourth brother, who are you deceived? Didn't we just come from the Black Death? Where is there anyone?" a man with a long sword hanging from his waist couldn't help but tease, "You can't be scared, right?" ”
Several people couldn't help but chuckle, the fourth old man was ashamed and angry, and was about to defend himself, but the boss had already said in a deep voice: "When is it, and you are still in the mood to laugh." Hurry up and find out that rabbit cub, if we accidentally provoke that thing, what will happen to us, do you still need me to talk about it? Fourth, you are the only one in there who has been in there, and you have experience. And among us, you have the best light skills, even if you do, it is not difficult to get out, not to mention that there are brothers outside to pick you up. ”
