Behind this stone there is a great article. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A trail winds its way down the mountain, and at the end of the trail is a basin-sized mountain spring. The mountain spring was only three feet high in a straight line from where he was, but the path was winding and the distance was much longer.
Immediately, Xia Chen showed a smile on his face, and said in his heart: It's really a mountain and a lot of water, and there is no way out.
So I walked down the trail, two steps and one step, and soon came to the edge of the mountain spring.
Through the bright moonlight, you can see some small fish and shrimp swimming in the algae in the mountain spring, and a mouth is opened by the spring, and the spring water merges into a small stream the size of a wrist and flows outward.
Scanning his eyes around the mountain spring, Xia Chen saw the sorrel that he was looking for.
The sorrel grows on a moist soil, and if you look closely, you will find some claw marks and a small mud puddle.
This is supposed to be the gopher masterpiece.
Inserting the short sword into the shoe, Xia Chen squatted down and washed his face. The spring water is not cooler because the weather is getting colder, but warmer.
Thinking that Ling Huxue was still waiting for water to drink, he quickly ran up, intending to carry Ling Huxue off and drink whatever she wanted, after all, there were neither plant leaves large enough to hold water, nor porcelain bowls and bottles.
After finding the water, Xia Chen's mood improved, he didn't feel cold anymore, and he was a lot more energetic when he ran, and soon returned to the place where he and Ling Huxue stayed just now.
However, when he saw that the ground was empty, his body couldn't help but shake!
Linghu Xue is gone!
Even the coat that Xia Chen took off and draped on her body just now is gone!
How long has it been? In less than a quarter of an hour, Ling Huxue was gone!
Breathing couldn't help but twitch, Xia Chen let go of his throat and shouted, "Ling Huxue! Ling Huxue, where are you?!"
As before, Xia Chen called Ling Huxue's name, but there was no response.
The sound drifted away with the wind......
Without getting a response, Xia Chen walked in the other direction of the abyss, calling Ling Huxue as he walked, even if the chance of getting a response was very small, he also shouted, what if he got a response from her.
After walking for about half an hour, I don't know how many times he screamed Ling Huxue, just as he opened his mouth and continued to shout, he suddenly heard a strange sound!
"Assert ......"
Xia Chen's open mouth immediately closed, bent down and pulled out the short sword inserted in the shoe tube and held it in his hand.
"Assert ......"
Strange voices came again. Xia Chen determined the direction, so he cautiously walked towards the place where the sound came from, and after walking for a while, he found that there was a cave.
The entrance to the cave was only the size of a door, and strange noises came from inside the cave.
"Assert ......"
Approaching the entrance of the cave, Xia Chen couldn't help but shudder when he heard this strange voice.
Could there be something unclean in there?
"Boom...... This girl is white and tender, it must be delicious, I haven't eaten such a person with such fine skin and tender meat for a long time. ”
"The point of the dead ghost's breath, the meat to the mouth, can you still run?"
Xia Chen's body couldn't help but shake!
Girl?
Cannibalism?
Linghu Xue?
Who is so mad as to eat people?
Xia Chen, who had a strong sense of justice, didn't say a word, and walked into the cave with his feet up.
The short sword in his hand exuded a faint blue light.
Although the light was light, it could keep Xia Chen from walking in disarray, and because of this, he quickly walked into the cave. When he turned a stalactite, he saw a relatively wide space in front of him.
This space is the size of the house where he and his grandfather live, and it is bright.
Xia Chen hid behind the stalactites and saw that the innermost part of the space was a stone platform. There was a man lying on the stone platform!
Linghu Xue!
Sure enough, it's Linghu Xue!
And on the edge of the stone platform, there are two monsters with black bodies, heads like humps, no hair, and iron forks!
Xia Chen only saw the back of them, and couldn't see the front of them, so it was difficult to tell what they were, but judging from their voices, this was a male and a female.
The monster of Nagong couldn't wait, and raised the iron fork to aim at Ling Huxue lying on the stone platform.
"Huh!"
The iron fork stabbed at Ling Huxue's heart, and Xia Chen had already rushed out with a short sword!
However, just as he had taken a step, the iron fork suddenly stopped.
It turned out that it was the female monster who suddenly reached out and grabbed the hand of the male monster, causing the iron fork to stop in mid-air.
The female monster sniffed and said to the male monster, "Do you smell anything?"
Xia Chen couldn't help but shudder, and immediately retracted his body behind the stalactites.
Listening to the female monster, the male monster withdrew the iron fork, wrinkled his nose, and sniffed the air.
"It's delicious!" the male monster suddenly rejoiced, "Human flavor! Moreover, it's still a little fresh meat!"
Xia Chen's face fused, the noses of these two monsters were even smarter than the dog's nose!
Glancing at Linghu Xue on the stone platform, the male monster said, "Old woman, you are waiting here, I'll take a look!"
The female monster nodded, and the male monster turned around.
After Xia Chen saw the male monster that turned around, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and a frightened expression appeared on his face.
The monster had a bulging forehead, two half-moon eyes under it, two nostrils like a bull's nose, and ears like an elephant's ears, and two rows of teeth as sharp as a bat's teeth!
This appearance can no longer be described as ugly, only hideous and terrifying can suit it!
According to his impression, Xia Chen immediately remembered the legend about gods, demons and monsters that his grandfather had told him on weekdays.
Isn't that the legendary Yaksha that looks like this?
Yaksha has lived in the underworld for a long time, has a strong ability to adapt to dark environments, specializes in eating human flesh and drinking human blood, and is born with strong martial arts and monstrous ghost power.
However, the darkness of this abyss is a little darker, but the scenery is good, compared to the Bright Moon Valley above, how can there be a Yaksha?
Is there a connection to hell here?!
Just when Xia Chen was frightened, this Yaksha was already smelling the smell and walking towards him.
Xia Chen stepped back, clenching the short sword in his hand at the same time.
"Bang!"
Just as Xia Chen was about to exit the entrance of the cave, a stone door was closed from top to bottom with a loud bang, sealing the entrance of the cave, apparently the Yaksha closed the door, and then on the edge of some stalactites, flames lit up, illuminating every part of the cave.
Xia Chen glanced back at the stone gate, his spine couldn't help but feel a chill, and a sweat broke out on his back.
"Why, young man, why don't you come in and sit down?"
When Xia Chen turned his head, he saw a young woman who was as beautiful as a flower and dressed in scantily clothes stood less than ten steps away from him and said to him scratching her head.
(Note: Yakshatra, found in Buddhism and Chinese folklore.) In Buddhism, Yaksha is one of the eight gods of the Heavenly Dragon, and the Rakshasa Gate is the same as the dependents of the King of Bishamen, born in the air or on the ground, with a fierce personality, a formidable appearance, both eating people and protecting the Dharma, and is the protector of Buddhism. The Yaksha of Chinese folklore is different in that it patrols the sea for the Sea Dragon King during the day, that is, there is a saying that the Yaksha patrols the sea and inspects the underworld for the King of Yama at night. In order to adapt to the development of the plot, the description of the book has been appropriately changed. )
