The oath of rebirth not to be a concubine

Chapter 259
Walking on a pile of rotten leaves is completely different from walking on a pile of dead bones. My stomach churned, my throat felt sore, and I vomited it out.

Xuanyuan Chen walked over to pat me on the back, and after I was better, he picked me up and jumped onto a rock.

"Here." He handed over the water, and I took a sip and felt a little better.

Everyone jumped up.

Standing on a thick tree root protruding from the ground, Qiu Jin frowned and looked at the ground, "Why are there so many dead bones?"

Ming Qi squatted down to take a closer look, and said even more puzzled, "The bones of these bones have not yet weathered, even if the forest is humid and slows down the weathering speed, these people have been dead for half a year at most, how could there be only bones left?" , there is no body at all."

Qiu Jin nodded, and also said, "Although there is a rotten smell in this forest, with so many bones, the smell of rotting corpses will definitely be extremely choking, how could there be only a little bit, could it be..."

The two of them looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

"Could it be that before they died, they encountered something strange that ate their flesh?"

"Shua... Shua..."

As soon as Qiu Jin finished speaking, a strange wind suddenly blew up in the forest, and along with it came bursts of strange small sounds.

"It's weird!" Ming Qi frowned, and swished out his weapon.

Qiu Jin quickly showed the palm-sized Yuanyue Xiuzhan knife, and flicked the mechanism to display the wings of the flying knife.I slid out of Mo Que, flicked the sword body into three feet, and carefully stared at the place where the sound came from.

"Shua... rustle..."

The sound came from far and near, and there was an extremely humid air coming with the wind. A large brown area on the side quickly approached. A wild rabbit was frightened and ran out of the grass, kicking its hind legs and running fiercely, but it was not as fast as that. Slices of brown.

The brown piece quickly wrapped it up, and after a while, the hare disappeared, and a complete white animal bone was left askew on the ground.

This……

"No! It's man-eating ants!" Someone shouted, and I was shocked.

Man-eating ants, carnivorous not herbivorous.

Wherever it passes, there is no life left, and if it gets on the body, it will directly feed on the flesh and blood. A group of small ants with a big head can eat a whole goat. The destructive power is amazing, and the appetite is even more amazing.

No wonder there are so many dead bones on the ground. It turns out that they are all the dead souls of this little ant!

Xuanyuan Chen, who didn't change his face in front of the wolves, and didn't change his face in the sea of ​​cannibal flowers, suddenly changed his face. He grabbed my waist, stood up and ran away lightly.

"Everyone, run, don't touch this thing!" Qiu Jin quickly withdrew the round knife, shouted loudly, and ran away.

Not to be outdone, Ming Qi immediately flew away.

The people brought here this time are among the 200 people, and they have been carefully selected. Their reaction and lightness skills are naturally good. Just run away.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhh..."

A large number of brown man-eating ants approached at the speed of the wind, spread over the grass, climbed over the tree trunks, followed closely by their tails, and showed no intention of leaving.

We are fast, they are also fast, we are slow, they are still fast, and they will not give up until they bite us to death.

"Damn it!" Xuanyuan Chen frowned, took out a bottle of kerosene from the side of the backpack, sprinkled it back, took out the fire bag and flicked it...

"call……"

When kerosene meets fire, it burns instantly.

Many small ants were swallowed by the sea of ​​fire, but more small ants bypassed the sea of ​​fire and came chasing after them.They were chasing fast.At this moment, he seemed to be enraged, but he chased even faster.

For some reason, a man at the back of the line got a few gnats on his clothes, and instantly bit through a large part of his skirt. Thanks to a brother next to him flying a long sword, he cut through half of his coat and saved him.

We ran in front quickly, and a large number of man-eating ants chased after us like crazy.

We have long since stopped trying to identify directions. Wherever the terrain is high, we will run there, and where there is a big drop in terrain, we will run away.

Just like that, after running straight for half an hour, they had already run out of the wet dense forest, but those man-eating ants didn't have the slightest intention to stop, and continued to chase crazily.

"This thing seems to have stuck to us!" Qiu Jin chased after him.Although her lightness kungfu is good, but after running for a long time, her face began to turn red, her breath was slightly uneven, and the others also began to appear embarrassed.

Xuanyuan Chen kept hugging me at first, but later when I broke free, he half embraced me to protect me, although his breath didn't change, but if he keeps running like this, no one can stand it!

You have to find a way to get rid of these things!

Yes, water!
As long as you find a way to find water, you can naturally shake them off.

But our route and map have already deviated too much. The air here is dry and uphill. It doesn't look like there is a water source. What can we do!

"Quick! Run over there!"

"Run, there is a forest in front that can block them!"

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden shout in front of him, and then, a black dot was far and near, and it arrived in front of him almost in a moment.Because of that embarrassing man with his hair partly parted and his clothes torn in several places, it was none other than Tuobaqing from Nanjiang.

The speed of our two groups is very fast, and we are in the direction of the head, and we are close in just a moment.

"It's you!" Tuoba Qing was taken aback.

The mask he was wearing today was exactly the one he wore on Maoyan Mountain back then, and he recognized it right away.

"Whoa, whoa!"

Before I could reply, a strange cry came from behind them, and the sky behind them darkened, and a large black thing arrived in an instant.

"Things that can eat people, run!" Tuobaqing's face changed instantly, and he was about to run behind us.

After all, this is not a battlefield, so he reminded us, so I also shouted, "There are things behind!"

He froze for a moment, looked up and saw the brown man following behind us, his face became even uglier immediately.

"Woo, woo..."

Just hesitating for a moment, the bird overhead is already approaching.

These things look like crows, but their beaks are long and pointed, and there seems to be an undercut at the top of the tight end, so they are not easy to provoke at first glance.

There are blackbirds on the top and brown ants on the bottom. The intersection of the two phases kills people.

"Go this way!"

Xuanyuan Chen pointed to the right, and everyone turned around and ran away without any hesitation.

In this direction, there are many thorns growing on the ground, and there are a few towering ancient trees not far away. I thought that whether it was a blackbird in the sky or an ant on the ground, they could temporarily block it, but the strange thing is that we Since entering the direction of the thorns, the birds in the sky are still chasing, but the man-eating ants on the ground have stopped.

The brown worm bodies are densely gathered on the edge of the thorn bush, layer upon layer, which is very shocking.

"Everyone, be careful! There are weird things here!" Xuanyuan Chen drank in a deep voice, everyone's speed remained the same, but their feet were much lighter. When stepping on their feet, they tried to pick the tips of the thick thorns and tried not to make any big noises.

In this way, it was time to make a cup of tea again, and the trees on the side began to flourish. The lush branches and leaves covered the sky and blocked the sun, blocking us with a natural barrier. Only some of the black birds chased into the forest, and most of them were blocked. Outside the forest.

The thorns on the ground also began to decrease. After Tuobaqing's guards shot the last few blackbirds, we could finally slow down and find a place with less grass to land.

"Oh, but I'm exhausted!"

As soon as it landed, Tuobaqing sat down on the rock, wiped out the water bag around his waist, "Gudu, Gudu..." raised his head and took several big gulps, and then wiped his forehead.Then I remembered something, raised my head and thought for a long time, and finally said, "You guys are here too?"

The situation was urgent just now, and we didn't care about it. Now that the danger is lifted, our identities are a bit embarrassing.

Xuanyuan Chen didn't care, and nodded with a slight smile.

Tuobaqing also smiled, and passed some of the water bag, "Do you want some water?"

"Thank you, we brought it." Xuanyuan Chen responded.

Tuobaqing nodded, and then put away the water bag, as if he wanted to tie it back to his waist. He looked down and saw his tattered clothes that had been pecked by birds, and he was a little embarrassed, so he asked us, "You guys, how did you touch it?" To those brown ants?"

Xuanyuan Chen said, "When I met him passing by, I kept chasing after her."

"Oh, that's bad luck." He nodded.

Xuanyuan Chen smiled and asked, "What about you, how did you provoke Black Bird?"

Tuobaqing smiled a little embarrassedly, "We were going to hunt some wild game for the tooth sacrifice, and we killed one. Somehow, a group of them came, and the group of birds were very fierce, and directly pecked the heads of the two brothers. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise, I wouldn’t even know how to die. This Valley of Death really lives up to its reputation, and there are many dangers everywhere.”

"It is so." Xuanyuan Chen nodded.

After all, the two of us have special identities. Having said that, it seems that there is no topic to talk about. In addition, we all know each other's purpose, so we don't exchange pleasantries.

After a short rest, the sky gradually turned cloudy. The forest was already covered by dense forests, and without sunlight, it felt even more gloomy and breathless.

Man-eating ants don't even come in this place, it must be weird, it's better to leave quickly.

but……

If you want to leave, you have to set the direction first. I have a map in my hand, and I know the approximate route of the treasure. Tuobaqing also came for the treasure. He is at the side, so how can I use the compass to set the direction.

Xuanyuan Chen also knew this, so he said, "It's almost done, let's go."

"Okay." I replied.With a slight nod, Qiu Jin called everyone to get up, found a direction at random, and walked away.

Tuobaqing didn't stop her, she lowered her head and pretended not to see it.

After we had traveled a long way, seeing no one was following, Xuanyuan Chen took out his positioning compass.

Putting the porcelain needle on the plate, he turned left and right a few times, stood on a high stone, and changed several directions in a row, his face became solemn again.

"What's going on?" Seeing something was wrong, I jumped to his side with some lightness kung fu.

"The compass seems to be out of order." He handed over the compass, and I turned it around a few times. The porcelain needles were like cotton, and they didn't move at all.

Those in the barren mountains and wild mountains were only focused on running away before, and didn't look at the direction at all.The compass is not working well, and it is difficult to judge the direction on cloudy days.

"Crack..."

Suddenly there was a weird sound from the side, like an animal biting its teeth, or something blunt objects hitting together.Xuanyuan Chen and I looked at each other, consciously moved closer to each other, protecting our backs.

Left, right, underfoot...

Although there are directions, there is nothing abnormal. There is a breeze in the forest, and the grass is rustling. That sound...

Never appeared again.

"Everyone be careful, there are weird things!" I shook my hands and slid out of Mo Que.

Nothing is abnormal, it is a demon. It seems quiet here, but I always feel an invisible danger, which is approaching little by little...

Sudden……

"Qingmu, run!"

A howl came from a distance, with shrillness and fear.

I narrowed my eyes and looked intently.

Not far away, Tuoba Qing was running forward crazily, and several guards behind him kept slashing with weapons, and many things with flat bodies and round heads that looked like bark sprang out from the tree trunks and the grass, spreading their bloody eyes. With a big mouth, showing sharp teeth, chasing them bit by bit.

"Crack, click..."

As the mouths of those things clenched together, a dull sound also came.

Before I was terrified, I heard a scream of "Ah!". Among my people, a tall man howled in pain, and a stream of blood burst out of his right leg. After that, his whole body twisted instantly. The drained persimmon fell to the ground like an empty shell.

There was a sound of "snap..." and there was the sound of bones bursting...

A brown bark-like thing drilled out of the bone. Its flat body was already rounded, and its blood-colored mouth opened wide, displaying sharp teeth.

"No, leave quickly, this Dingxi can penetrate into human flesh!"

I was terrified in my heart, I clicked the lightness kung fu and ran away, but at this moment, the bark of the oblique thorn fell off, and a piece fell straight to my shoulder.
