Chapter 39: Traces

After a while, Sanjing felt that it was almost there, and said, "Let's go." ”

At the same time, it signaled that Hanami was doing a good job and was ready to slip away at any time.

Hanami reluctantly left the chaotic first scene.

Gradually, they walked more and more to the heights of Tianheng Mountain, and the woods here slowly became scarce, and various unknown caves were hidden in the depths.

"This trace is not ordinary......"

The group approached a tall tree, which looked like it had been charred by something, and there were strange and unknown footprints left there, and even the dirt emitted a strange smell, and the bottom of the trunk seemed to have been hooked by something to break the bark.

"Some trees have these traces, and some trees don't, it's very strange what kind of monster can cause the phenomenon." Guliga said.

"Clumsy, stupid, stupid! That means this monster can fly~! Hanami scolded, such an obvious thing is still thinking about it for a long time.

"Yes!" Before, Gulga and the others walked along the mountain road, and their thinking was also limited by the thinking of walking, and it was not too normal for the strange beasts in the mountains to fly, so the traces were not connected, but intermittent.

"But this kind of footprint is like some kind of dragon footprint, and the old man has hunted countless beasts in his life, but he can't even recognize it."

Ning Lao squatted down and carefully looked at the shape and size of the footprints, and for a while, he couldn't find the same example in his mind.

"Could it be that this is what the mountain keepers call the white god?" Sanjing said, comparing the rare dragon species in Tianheng Mountain to gods, which is a relatively reasonable explanation.

"Could it be that the appearance of the white god scared these blood apes, so they would have abnormalities and run down the mountain?" Guliga said.

"If the white god really exists in Tianheng Mountain, and is regarded as the god of Tianheng Mountain by the mountain guards, how can he conflict with the strange beasts that originally inhabit Tianheng Mountain, isn't this a contradiction?" Sanjing asked rhetorically.

"Then there's only one possibility, and that's that something else has disturbed these blood apes, and it seems that the origin is not small." Gulga speculated that if it wasn't the white god, it was another unknown beast......

"Something may happen in the heights of Tianheng Mountain, we have to speed up our pace, according to this view, even if we are lucky enough to find the village chief, I am afraid that we can really only bring back a corpse." Sanjing said.

Sanjing felt that although bringing back the corpse of the village chief was also a commission, he would lose the opportunity to know the village chief and gain more trust from Lahabi Village, and the prestige of the Lion Hunter Group would be extremely limited, so under the premise that it was possible, the perfect completion of the commission would naturally be to bring back the village chief of Lahabi Village in its entirety.

A few people nodded, time is precious......

After bypassing a few rocks that stood in the way, an even larger cavern appeared on the other side of the mountain.

The outer side of the cavern was covered with gray moss, and vines were entwined out, and the trees at the end of the vine branches had been completely burned, and the traces of footprints were becoming more and more obvious.

Ning Lao bent down and probed carefully, he was once again sure that this trace was the same shape as the strange and unknown footprints they had encountered on the road before, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, the trees here have been burned by this unknown guy......

"Do you want to go in?" Gulliga asked, they were not far from the top of Tianheng Mountain, and the large cave on this high place looked rather gloomy.

"Hmm...... If that monster had entered the cavern, it would be very suspicious. Sanjing said, he always felt that the unusualness of Tianheng Mountain had a lot to do with this monster, if the white god was the god who guarded Tianheng Mountain, then this monster could not be understood as it broke this delicate natural balance.

Therefore, the blood apes will riot en masse and run down the hill like crazy, and the smell of danger and chaos will be more or less pervasive......

Of course, the conflict between the Abomination Bird and the Blood Ape is caused by Hanami, but if you think about it carefully, if they don't appear on this road in Tianheng Mountain, the blood ape that runs down will sooner or later clash with those Abomination Birds or other fierce beasts that are eating, so in general, the root cause of everything is because of the "invader".

The space in the cave was huge, dark and damp, all kinds of stone pillars and stones were growing, and there was a huge gap in the middle of the cave, and everyone felt the whirring wind blowing up from the gap below.

"It's a bit slippery...... Climb up. ”

Sankin observes the structure of the cave, which is still some distance from the top of the cave, but can be slowly climbed up from the rocks over there.

One by one, they climbed to the top of the cavern, a huge platform made of rock, empty of nothing but a mess of stones, broken rock, and a few strange footprints.

"Did we go wrong?" Ning Lao frowned slightly, could it be that there is another side of this cave that is either in other caves, or is it not in the cave at all, but on the top of Tianheng Mountain?

Suddenly aware of something, the Thousand Images flickered from the back to the front, crouching down beside the messy stone to observe another suspicious footprint.

"It's a trace of a person's coming!" Gulga also noticed it and found some traces of humanity.

"Found it, these are the footprints of the village chief." Chikage said, "This footprint is exactly the same size as the village chief. ”

"But it's clear...... There are other people's footprints. Sanjing pointed to the footprints on the other side, roughly comparing the differences between the marks.

In addition to the monster footprints that appeared earlier, the footprints of the village chief have now been discovered, and there are also human footprints of another unknown person, plus unknown footprints, there are four in total.

It is not yet known what happened in Tianheng Mountain, but at least the clues of the village chief have been found, and it also confirms the inference that the village chief appeared in Tianheng Mountain and then disappeared.

This is a big step forward, but it seems that this is the end of the matter, and several people turn the surroundings upside down, but no more clues are found.

"It's strange, obviously there are traces, but you can't find more clues elsewhere?" Using the Perception Dragonization Technique, Gulliga has explored all the transparent gaps or tiny cavities around him, and there are no more suspicious places except for some paw prints.

"Hmm...... Let's go through the clues. Sanjing said, "In the cave on the high part of Tianheng Mountain, traces of the village chief's footprints were found on the rock platform above, as well as some other strange traces. ”

"But the village chief seems to have disappeared out of thin air, no, not only the village chief, but also these other traces of people or monsters seem to be gone......"
