Everyone felt more and more uneasy, but they couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

Even Qin Yan couldn't tell why, but there must be something strange about the woods under the shadow.

This unknown haze weighed on everyone's hearts like lead, forcing them to be more cautious.

At this time, Hu Ba suggested:"This area is quite strange, why don't we go around it."

Everyone was at a loss for a moment, not knowing whether the detour method was feasible.

Qin Yan had the best eyesight here, so everyone's eyes fell on him, letting him make the decision.

Qin Yan observed with all his eyesight and found that the area covered by the dark clouds was quite large. If he wanted to go in the direction indicated by the human skin map, he would need to make a very big detour.

He estimated that if he took a detour, it would take at least two days to get through.

They took the waterway at the bottom of Zhalong Mountain to save time. If they took a detour this time, it would be no different from the time when Blind Chen went around Zhalong Mountain along the Snake River. You know, there are swamps in those forests, which is simply a green hell. It should not be easy to walk there. Moreover, the most important thing is that Qin Yan has confidence in this team. Even if they encounter something difficult, their team is strong enough to deal with it.

So, in the end, Qin Yan said:"Let's move forward according to the original plan to avoid unnecessary trouble."

And at this time, a few bird calls were heard in the originally quiet dense forest, as if telling them that it was still safe here.

Hu Ba nodded in agreement:"Well, a few bird calls were heard from the woods just now, proving that it is still safe here. Maybe we are making a fuss. It is also a normal natural phenomenon in Yunnan that it is sunny and rainy at the same time."

Fatty didn't care about that and looked heroic:"If the enemy comes, we will fight him. If the water comes, we will cover it with earth. If there are any wild beasts or zongzi, let them come!"

When Hu Ba heard what Fatty said, he was full of ambition and passion:"If there are difficulties, we must go. If there are no difficulties, we will create difficulties and go!"

Since the direction was set, everyone no longer hesitated and continued to move forward with spirits...

In the dense forest covered with dark clouds, the further they went, the more they unexpectedly found that there were more and more creatures inside.

Along the way, everyone did not encounter anything terrifying, so the speed of moving forward was not slow, and gradually they adapted to the dark environment here.

This dense forest covered with dark clouds is quite vast. Everyone went all the way in. Unknowingly, the sky outside had set, and the dense forest in this area became darker.

Hu Ba looked at the time, which was about four o'clock in the afternoon.

But it was almost night in the dense forest, and the vision had become very blurry. They had originally planned to get out of the dense forest before dark, but now it seemed impossible.

By now, everyone was starving and needed to find something to fill their stomachs.

In the dense forest, the best food is naturally these animals. In that era, there was no shortage of wild animals in the woods.

But everyone did not dare to eat randomly, and only picked out the wild boars to eat.

One reason was that the meat of wild boars was good, and the other was for safety reasons.

While he could still see the road, the fat man picked up his pistol and shot a wild boar not far away.

He blew on the muzzle of the gun, obviously very satisfied with his marksmanship.

On the other side, Hu Bayi also shot down a wild boar with one shot.

But he always felt something was strange, and couldn't help but said in confusion:

"Why do these wild boars look a little strange? They are so stupid and won't run. I shot them but they didn't scream. The strangest thing is, its companion didn't run away either."

Everyone felt a little strange when they heard Hu Bayi say that.

The fat man tried another shot and found that it was just like what Hu Bayi said. The wild boars that were originally agile just stayed there like targets. They fell straight down after being shot. The other wild boars didn't scream in panic or run away.

Everyone felt a little strange and walked closer to take a look. They all gasped.

They saw several wild boar corpses lying there. The blood flowing from their bodies was actually golden, just like the blood of Shirley Yang's grandfather, Partridge Whistle, in the later period.

Golden blood!

Could it be that the creatures here were also cursed?

Everyone looked at each other, and even Qin Yan didn't understand.

But at this time, Qin Yan suddenly made a gesture to stop talking:

"Hush, keep your voice down, don't you think the shouting here is a bit weird?"

Everyone looked at Qin Yan in surprise, and he said:

"I was listening carefully during that time. The calls of these birds are very regular. Ordinary birds don't make such calls."

After hearing Qin Yan's words, everyone felt that something was wrong and became alert.

Zhang Qiling seemed to have suddenly thought of something, picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it into the air.

""Pah!"

With a sound, a bird fell to the ground.

These birds were also stupid and seemed to have problems.

The fat man cut the bird open with a knife, and unexpectedly, the same golden blood as those of the wild boars flowed out.

Hu Ba narrowed his eyes slightly:"This is definitely a trap set by someone. You see, the bird calls we heard outside just now were obviously deliberately trying to dispel our doubts and lure us in."

Everyone nodded secretly, their faces a little solemn.

At this moment, darkness had spread across the entire earth, and the dense forest where Qin Yan and the others were located was even darker, as if all the light had been absorbed by something.

When the earth was completely swallowed up by the darkness, suddenly, from the depths of the darkness came a series of fast and slow knocking sounds.

"Tick......Tick......Tick......"

Qin Yan was the first to hear it, and then slowly the others heard it, and their hearts tightened, and their uneasiness became stronger.

Qin Yan remembered that in the original book, Hu Bayi and the others also heard the sound, but at that time they guessed it was an international distress signal.—SOS

But it was actually the sound of liquid dripping from the coffin in the book.

When Qin Yan was thinking, he heard Hu Bayi say,"Look at the dark clouds in the sky, and the fog in the forest is getting thicker. There must be a dead person in the dense forest."

Shirley Yang nodded and said,"We have entered the scope of the tomb of King Xian, so any unusual situation may be related to the tomb of King Xian. King Xian's methods are very strange. Everyone must be careful."

Except for Peacock, everyone present has been walking underground all year round, so they don't think Hu Bayi is exaggerating. It's better to believe it than not to believe it. They are all secretly prepared.

Everyone didn't dare to go over rashly, but turned on the wolf eye flashlight and shone it at the place where the sound came from, but the light beam of the wolf eye flashlight was blocked by the dense plants, and the more you look at it, the more creepy it feels.

Even some old barks with strange shapes look like hideous corpses in the dark.

But no one can see what the specific situation is over there, so they have to pin their hopes on Qin Yan.

Qin Yan used his eyesight again and looked in the direction where the sound came from. He found that the direction where the sound came from was a huge tree trunk.

········Asking for flowers

The trunks are two big banyan trees intersecting together, which is very spectacular.

The two trunks are as thick as stone pillars, like a twist, twisted together, and twisted four or five times, forming a rare husband and wife tree.

It is covered with full green moss. There is a big hole in the tree, and a faint strange red light flickers inside.

It is indeed a coffin in the tree, and buried inside is the great wizard under King Xian.

He knew where the voice came from, but he didn't want to act rashly, because King Xian is proficient in witchcraft, who knows what unexpected things and changes will happen?

Qin Yan told everyone what he saw, and said at the same time:

"There might be something strange about the trunk of that big tree, but your vision is too poor now. If you act rashly, it may be dangerous, so let's wait until tomorrow when the light is sufficient to find out, how about it?"

Qin Yan was obviously considering everyone, so there was no reason for everyone to refuse, and they all nodded in agreement.

After the decision was made, everyone began to clear the branches and weeds around, built a fire, set up a tent, and camped to rest.

However, the ticking sound continued to come from the huge trunk of the old banyan tree. After everyone made some adjustments, they finally couldn't help but approach the huge couple tree............0When everyone came under the trees, they could not help but be shocked by the two big trees.

The treetops were low and heavy, almost like a forest of two trees!

And that drop of water���The ticking sound came from the trunk. It was not loud, but it sounded very strange in the dark.

Qin Yan knew that there was a coffin in the tree, but he couldn't tell them at this time. After all, it was difficult to explain this kind of foresight to them clearly at once.

Hu Bayi whispered to the fat man,"Fatty, take out the bag. There are black donkey hooves that can ward off evil spirits and suppress corpses, as well as corpse ropes, glutinous rice and other things. No matter what the situation is, with these things, you can fight it."

Shirley Yang made the same judgment as in the original book:

"Is this Morse code? Three short, three long, three short, that is, beep, tap, beep, beep, which translates to the international distress signal.———SOS"

Qin Yan actually wanted to say that it was just the liquid in the coffin in the tree dripping onto the jade tomb bed under the jade coffin, and it just happened to form a piece of code.

But Qin Yan's heart immediately shuddered, could it really be such a coincidence? It just happened to form a string of death codes? Just as he was thinking about it, the peacock beside him suddenly softened and fell down.

Qin Yan hurriedly grabbed her to prevent her from falling directly to the ground. It seemed that the peacock saw something again.

Everyone was also shocked, but fortunately the peacock was just about to faint.

The peacock, who had recovered, looked a little terrified and said faintly:

"I saw... a huge black shadow inside the tree!"

Everyone was shocked after hearing this. It seemed that there was indeed something unclean inside the tree trunk.

Qin Yan didn't have time to think about it, because he had extremely sharp hearing and heard another sound coming from the dense tree canopy.

"Ziz...ziz...ziz……"

There was no pattern, and it was hard to tell what it was.

Qin Yan was stunned for a moment. He remembered that Hu Bayi had recorded in Ghost Blows Out the Light that there were indeed two sounds at that time. One was the sound of water dripping from the coffin in the tree, and the other was the sound of a huge eagle owl pecking at a tree lizard in the wreckage of the plane on the treetop.

But now this sound did not sound like the sound of an eagle owl pecking, but more like the sound of a signal. Could it really be a signal from the plane?
