Chapter 777: The Lair
Picking Star grew up in this small city, but he had never heard of it: "Why haven't I heard anyone mention this? ”
The middle-aged man who spoke said with an ugly expression: "The young people in the city rarely know about this because the older generation has always been tight-lipped, alas, it is also pitiful, among the few young people who went there at that time was your own uncle, and then they never returned, and your father went to look for it, but found nothing." This is the eternal unity in everyone's hearts. ”
Off the beaten track means easy to hide!
Both Xingxing and Jade Hopeless were keenly aware of the problem, and their intuition told them that those people might be hiding there!
"Let's go somewhere."
The middle-aged man who had just spoken was the first to stand up and express his opposition, perhaps because the shadow of his youth was too deep, and he resolutely objected: "You can't go there!" It's a lair of beasts, and we don't know how many beasts live there, so what if we can't come back? I still have a son to feed at home, and I don't want to die! ”
He was not the only one in the crowd who was frightened, and several middle-aged people also took a few steps back.
Looking at their frightened appearance, Picking the Star felt helpless for a while, he also has relatives, who wants to die? But if this matter is not investigated clearly, the people of their clan can only continue to live in this dense forest, not only will they not be able to get out, but even their descendants will always be shrouded in the suspicion of conspiracy, is this what they want?
Picking the stars insisted on going to the mountain stream to see.
He is not afraid of danger there as a young man who is concerned and has injuries on his body, so how can others have the face to turn back? After weighing the pros and cons, they decided to go to the mountain stream with the stars.
Just when everyone was slowly heading towards the mountain stream with apprehension and fear, Yu Wuxing found a clue without his eyes.
"Look what this is!"
Everyone followed his instructions and stared, only to see a few more drops of blood on the blades of grass near their sight.
Yu Wuwang half-squatted down to carefully observe the blood stains on the blades of grass, and the corners of his lips hooked a smile that was bound to win: "This blood stain has not dried up yet, indicating that the injured people just passed by here not long ago, our guess is not wrong, those people are entrenched in the mountain stream, we still have a chance to rush over now!" ”
The rumors that have been circulating in the city for years are just rumors!
The people who realized this were indignant and could hear them raise their arms and shout; "If I catch those people, I must break them into pieces!"
"Yes, make sure they look good!"
The crowd did not stay too long in the dense forest, but went directly to the mountain stream.
Jade Hopeless and Picking Stars are at the forefront, and in addition to helping to clear the way, they also have the task of observing the movements around them.
Just as everyone was slowly approaching the mountain stream, an argument was taking place in a hidden cave near the mountain stream!
The protagonist of the dispute is the man in black who escaped from the cemetery last night, and the other is an old man who has played the role of Anan's father for more than ten years.
The old man was the first to speak, and he said angrily: "After so many years of hiding in the small city as another person, I have completely gained their trust, it is you, it is you who have ruined my careful preparation for so many years!" You're such a piece of shit! “
Not to be outdone, the man in black said: "There are so many difficult outsiders in the city, but I didn't listen to you remind me, isn't it your fault?" ”
The old man was speechless, and he almost couldn't breathe in one breath: "You are a strong word!" ”
The man in black sneered: "Am I strong words? Isn't that true? After all these years, when have I ever made a mistake, only this one....... If anyone is at fault, that person should also be you, but if you remind me, I will not be ambushed by them....... You don't have to, ahem, it's hurt! ”
Where will the old man be convinced?
The two began a heated argument over who was at fault, until they heard footsteps outside.
The two people who were still arguing just now gasped in unison: "How could anyone come........ Didn't you say the place was secretive? ”
The man in black said with a pale face: "How do I know why they can find here, no one has been here for more than ten years....... No matter what, hide first! ”
Now, the two of them can't care about the various injuries in the cave, and it is still the most important thing to save their lives, so they ran away and ran out of another passage in the cave! When they entered the cave, they saw such a scene, all kinds of herbs were piled up in every corner of the cave, and in the middle of the cave there was a table with bandages, and then looking inside, you could see a stone bed.
There was tea on the table, Yu Wuwang touched the bottom of the cup, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "The tea is still warm, which means that a few people haven't gone far at all, we may be able to find out if we search around!" ”
Just do what you say, and everyone is full of enthusiasm and scattered.
Hopelessly, Xingxing and Jade were afraid of missing clues, so they went around the cave.
As someone who has lived here for decades, Picking Star was very surprised by the existence of this cave: "I didn't expect those people to live so close to the town, but over the years, none of us have ever noticed this, and we have been teased for so long!" What a mistake! “
Jade Hopeless patted Xingxing's shoulder and slowly walked to the table.
He didn't find any clues in the cave, and here they found only evidence of the actual existence of the two conspirators.
"Do you say that this is not the place they used to refine the mountain charm at all," Yu Wuwang said what he had guessed in his heart, "Although this cave is hidden, it is relatively close to the small city, if someone is not afraid of death, it is easy to find out, those people have been planning for several years without thinking of this, should we guess in another direction?" ”
Picking the star asked in confusion: "For example?" ”
Yu Wuwang shook his head, he had no clue in his head at this time, the words he just said were just a conjecture in his heart, whether it could be confirmed or not needed to be further investigated.
Just as the two people in the cave began to fall silent, a scream suddenly came from outside!
The two people who thought something was wrong hurriedly rushed outside the cave: "What happened?" ”
I saw a person with wide eyes, trembling and pointing to a bush and saying: "I just saw a mountain ghost, he was hiding behind a tree and the other was silently observing us, as soon as I turned my head he ran away, and now I don't know where I ran!" ”
In other people's minds, the mountain charm is a monster that is afraid of light and fire and only loves to move in the dark, how can it haunt during the day?
Some people wondered if the man was too nervous and saw it wrong: "How can there be a mountain charm during the day?" ”
"But I really saw it!"
Jade Hopeless glanced at each other with Xingxing, and walked together to the place where the mountain charm had appeared, and sure enough, they found some clues there.
The shredded cloth was caught by a branch, and not only that, but there was a disgusting stench from the place where the mountain charm had stood!
"Look, it's here again!" The man shouted again, and this time, in the direction he had pointed, everyone gasped! At the end of the line, a black figure stood behind a tree, poking its head out and looking at the people standing in front of the cave with its green eyes, its white fangs giving people a creepy feeling.
Everyone clenched their weapons and prepared to fight to the death against the Mountain Charm!
But what they never expected was that the Mountain Charm had no intention of approaching at all, and it slowly retreated backwards while making a strange cry, and it didn't look like it was going to rush forward to attack them, but like it was going to take them somewhere!
This behavior makes the faint-hearted even more alarmed: "Could this be a trap...... After so many years, I have never heard anyone talk about the charm of the mountains and the ....... that can lead the way."
Sensing that they weren't keeping up with her, the mountain charm turned abruptly, its mouth whining and whining.
Yu walked hopelessly, and he stopped him at this time: "Wouldn't this be too dangerous?" ”
Jade Hopeless smiled and said, "I think it can give us some clues." ”
He insisted on going, and the star picking was naturally going to follow him, this should have been a matter for their family, and Yu Wuwang was just a passing foreigner, this matter not only involved them, but also caused them so much trouble, it really shouldn't be, there was no reason for the star to retreat.
"In that case, I'll go with you!"
The other people's hearts were already very scared, and when they saw that Picking Star and Jade Hopeless were both following the footsteps of the mountain charm, they were even more scared, and only a dozen strong young people were willing to follow, and a few people who didn't leave were left in this cave.
Just as they were following the mountain charm through the dense forest, in a hidden wooden house in the dense forest, the voice of reprimand was sounding!
A tall man stared at the two kneeling on the ground with a fierce look on his face, and he couldn't crush the subordinates of these two people: "You are really two waste! ”
At this time, if Yu Wuwu was here, he would definitely be able to recognize the identities of those two people, one was the man in black who escaped from under their hands, and the other was an old man who disguised himself as the people of the city and blended in, they knelt on the ground respectfully and let others reprimand them, and they didn't even dare to take a breath.
It wasn't until the man was tired of scolding that the old man defended himself aggrievedly and said, "Master, it's not our fault,....... It's all to blame on the outsiders, it's they who broke the plan! ”
