death row

Chapter 214
"The corpse will never sink into the mud." Ling Feng said.

"Will you wear special shoes for jumping corpses?" Yu Qin seemed very curious about this matter.

Ling Feng turned around sharply and said to him with a ferocious expression: "Have you ever seen a corpse that can sink into water? In human terms, there is no such reason for a corpse."

"If you can't, then you can't, why are you so fierce?" Yu Qin murmured to herself in a low voice.

Ling Feng walked all the way and swept away the fallen leaves on the ground with his feet and searched carefully. Liao Xingtian seemed to be trying his best to find the soul-repressing gong for him.

Naturally, I wouldn't work hard to do something that couldn't be done at all, so I pretended to follow behind and searched. Of course, it was impossible to find anything along the way, but all the way to the west deviated from the direction we were walking before.

Until the afternoon, we saw a steep mountain peak in front of us. The entire mountain peak was like a tall raised wall, blocking the mountain road in front of us. If we want to go around the mountain peak, we must pass a steep cliff. The narrow mountain road is only one meter wide at most, which is frightening to see.

But this is not the only path that can pass through the mountain, because there is a huge hole in the center of the mountain, and at the end of the hole, a bright light can be seen faintly penetrating.

Ling Feng said: "Through the cave, there is a corpse inn. The Taoist priest pretended to be a corpse in the inn last night. When I was eating, he crawled out of the coffin and stole the corpse."

Liao Xingtian thought for a while and said, "I don't understand something, and I want to ask brother Jiao."

Ling Feng said: "But it's okay to say."

"As far as I know, priests don't drive corpses, because it's a taboo thing, but I saw yesterday that the Taoist priest's ability to drive corpses may not be inferior to yours, so is there something behind his behavior of stealing corpses?"

Ling Feng seemed to be stopped by the question, he held his head up and thought for a long time before saying: "Isn't that person a Taoist priest?"

"Whether it is true or not, this matter will not be as simple as we thought at first, we still have to be mentally prepared, otherwise there may be big trouble." Xiao Liuzi said.

Hearing this, Ling Feng sighed and said: "The old people say: chasing corpses, chasing corpses, one step forward, and the future is unknown. I didn't believe it before, but now I see it makes sense. The number of corpses in our business is absolutely unprecedented. There will be more than a hundred, otherwise normal people will have corpses, but I have chased at least a few hundred corpses and suppressed fraudulent corpses, so it will be a matter of time before I run into trouble."

"The matter is not yet conclusive, it is too early to say these things, but we must be more careful." Liao Xingtian said.

He was about to walk towards the cave, but Ling Feng turned his eyes and followed him to whisper a few words in his ear, Liao Xingtian stopped immediately and he said with a somewhat exaggerated expression: "Why didn't you say this earlier ?”

"I don't know, I thought it was an ordinary thing?" Ling Feng seemed to be a little anxious.

Liao Xingtian strode towards us again and said, "Let's go back quickly, there is still time to leave."

"What to go back? How to go back? Where to go back?" I asked puzzled.

Little Six said: "President Liao, what did you remember?"

"Anyway, everyone believes that I am right. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time and we must go out immediately. If we miss the opportunity, we will all be buried here." Liao Xingtian looked very serious.

This actually aroused my curiosity, so I asked: "If you have anything to say, just say it? Is it necessary to hide it from us when we have reached this point?"

"Okay, I won't hide it from everyone. Brother Lingfeng told me just now that he saw someone setting up an altar on the way here and performing rituals. According to the way the ceremony was carried out, it should be someone who practiced forbidden arts and sacrificed with the five elements." Cthulhu, I once heard from my master that every mountain spirit is a calamity every 72 years. If the days of practice are full, passing the last calamity is the road to heaven. The law of the five elements is the evil spirits in the mountains. Pray for the help of the evil gods and stop the mountain spirits from harassing them."

"Let's think about what happened in the future. First, those people were digging treasures and met the mountain spirit in the old dragon's lair. Then there was a huge strange sound in the forest every night. This is obviously not a sound that ordinary creatures can make. .”

"And that woman, right now I'm sure she's a Dimo ​​Fandong, because only this kind of person can raise and control such a huge centipede, she asked us to kill her for no reason, maybe because she's already Knowing that it is very difficult for me to survive this calamity, it is better to die in our hands than to be injured by the mountain spirit of crossing the tribulation, these few things are connected, do you think we should stay here for a long time?"

"It seems very reasonable, but since the woman knew the danger and didn't run away, is it reasonable to wait here to die?" I asked back.

"It's not that she doesn't want to leave, but because she can't leave at all. This... the person you call Di Mofandong, I call him a demon beast master. Once this kind of person goes out of his sphere of influence, he will Being backlashed by the evil beasts she raised, she may not have known the theory of crossing the catastrophe when she first entered, and once she knew it, she would not be able to go out again, unless..." Ling Feng paused at this point.

"Unless something..." I asked subconsciously.

"The evil beast master needs to find a substitute just like the drowned water ghost. As long as she can transfer the voodoo she raised to another person, she can leave safely." Ling Feng said.

I suddenly realized: "No wonder she said a lot of irrelevant things to us. She just wanted to win our sympathy and find a replacement from us, so that she can escape from this place."

"So Xie Chenglin and the others must have become food for evil beasts at this time." Xiao Liuzi said.

"At this point, we should adjust our goals and protect ourselves." Liao Xingtian frowned.

"Just leave like this, how do we explain to Second Young Master?" I said.

"In any case, we have to wait for this special time to pass before we can continue to carry out the mission. Not to mention you and me now, even the people from Sita Chemicals will not stay in Qingxi Mountain. Self-preservation is the top priority." Tian turned around and left.

Suddenly there was a soft sound, a cold light flashed, and a black dart shot in the air. Liao Xingtian raised his hand and shook it. The dart suddenly lost its aim and stabbed diagonally into a tree.

Looking in the direction from which the flying knife came, I saw a strangely dressed man standing under a pine tree tens of meters away from us. The pair of big, round eyes stared at us aggressively with a cold light.

After a moment of stalemate, the opponent did not continue to move, and disappeared behind the tree in a flash.

Judging by his weapon, this person should be a ninja, but judging by his clothes, this person seems to be an "indigenous person" in the mountains, but no matter who it is, it is certainly not ordinary people who can survive here.
