When the group came to the foot of Qiuxing Mountain, the sky was already light, looking in, the endless hills, forests and seas were boundless, and the peaks in the distance were high and low, undulating continuously, in the misty clouds and smoke, flickering far and near, if it was about to leave.
When the horses arrived, they could no longer walk, so they tied their horses to trees and walked out into the forest.
"Something is really wrong here," Cheng Muyou looked left and right at the woods next to him as he walked, "There is not even the slightest bird call, where is it still like an old forest in the mountains." ” "It's not surprising that this place is an excellent hunting place for hunters, and the bones buried below have been nourished for decades, so it's more fertile than other places."
Yan Niang said casually.
As soon as these words came out, the accompanying officials felt that the hairs on their backs stood up, and they suddenly felt that the forest was a little darker, and they asked in a gossiping manner, "Girl, what is buried in this mountain, that such a monster can be born." ” "Children, children who are eaten by their own parents and brothers.
They have been buried here for decades, and after all, their grievances are hard to dissipate, and over time, these grievances condense together, turn into a bloodthirsty ghost, and then at a chance opportunity, they come out of the ground.
It first ate all the living creatures in the mountains, and then sneaked into Yuquan Town, stealing food, eating people, eating corpses, in short, as long as it could fill its stomach, it swallowed it all. ” The official shuddered, "Then aren't we going to die on this trip, I guess these people are not enough to stuff its teeth." ” "It's still too late to leave, my Xin'an Mansion doesn't raise waste people."
Cheng Muyou shook it coldly.
"The adult misunderstood, he just said casually, even this girl is not afraid, how can we not dare to go."
The other servant hurried to play the round, but although he said this, his steps stiffened a lot, as if it took a lot of effort to take each step.
Yan Niang saw that their steps were getting slower and slower, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but float a smile, she looked at Cheng Muyou, "Why should adults be strong, it's an errand that will lose their heads at any time, and it doesn't have to make people pretend to be not afraid, in my opinion, how many can they go, so it saves me a lot of trouble." ” Cheng Muyou knew that she was sarcastic about her unladylike use of people, but he didn't care, he looked around, and saw that the leaves above his head were getting thinner and thinner, and the blue sky was gradually exposed in front of him, and he knew that the end of the woods was ahead.
Sure enough, he didn't walk for long, a large empty depression appeared in front of his eyes, the depression ran through several winding cracks, and it was facing outward with a white mist, the fog was extremely cold, even if it was still dozens of feet away, Cheng Muyou and his party had already felt the unusual cold, and when they walked a few steps forward, several officials who came with them were already frozen, and they could barely continue to move forward in a ball.
"Miss Yan, do you feel that this fog is wrong?"
Cheng Muyou let out a white breath, "Although it is cold in the mountains, it is not so cold, and," he sniffed vigorously a few times, "There seems to be a strange smell here." ” "This is corpse gas, adults should cover their mouths and noses earlier."
Yan Niang narrowed her eyes, her gaze seemed to want to penetrate the dense fog in front of her.
Hearing her say this, Cheng Muyou and the servants hurriedly took off the sweat towel to cover their mouth and nose, and one of the officials shook his hand in a panic, and dropped the sweat towel on the ground, he squatted down and groped in the thick fog, but the sweat towel disappeared in the fog as if it had long feet.
"I saw it and landed at my feet, why did it disappear all of a sudden?"
The servant was so frightened that he was dripping with cold sweat, and the corpse gas poured into his mouth and nose one after another, choking him so much that he coughed again and again, and he could barely stand on his feet.
"Giggle......
"Suddenly there were several childlike laughter from the depths ......of the mist, trembling, sharp, childish and gloomy.
The sound grew closer and closer, like a steel needle piercing into the hearts of these people outside the fog inch by inch, slowing their breathing.
A black head gradually emerged from the mist, the head was flat and large, very bulky, and very disproportionate to the small body looming below, it had a red sweat towel around its neck, swaying out of the thick fog, giggling as it walked, as if amused by the strange appearance of its own sweat towel.
"Ahh Seeing this scene, the official closest to it let out a scream, turned his head and ran backwards, but he was coldly tripped by the stone behind him, and fell to the ground, holding his feet and buttocks and arching forward, like a twitching earthworm.
The monster walked up to the servant step by step, and the two red eyes protruding swept straight across his already frightened face, and then it took off the sweat towel from his neck and handed it to him.
The servant was so frightened that his face turned blue, his whole body trembled like chaff, and he couldn't lift his arms at all, and he dared to take the sweat towel he handed over.
Seeing this, the monster leaned forward again, put the sweat towel on his eyes, and looked at him through the sweat towel for a while, and suddenly let out a string of "clucking" laughter, and then suddenly grew its mouth, revealing the layers of fangs inside, and pressed it down against the officer's head.
When the others saw such a scene, they were so frightened that they rushed down the mountain, but Cheng Muyou pulled out his long sword and ran over, and at the last moment, he plunged the sword into the monster's throat.
The blade of the sword pierced through its mouth to its throat, stuck in its entire body, but there was no blood in the wound, not a drop of blood.
Cheng Muyou let go of the hilt of the sword and froze in place, looked at the child-like thing in front of him and shook his head left and right, and then his mouth opened and closed, making a sound of "Gada, Gada".
With its chewing movements, Cheng Muyou's sword, which had killed countless enemies on the battlefield, curled up and shattered little by little, and was swallowed by it all.
Seeing this, the official on the ground screamed in fright, and this cry interrupted the monster's eating, and completely angered it, and it bent its legs and jumped on the stomach of the official, and its hands clamped on his shoulders, grinning its mouth to the maximum, revealing Bai Sensen's fangs inside, and biting down on his neck.
Cheng Muyou saw that the man was about to be swallowed alive, and rushed up regardless of it, but who knew that the monster had great strength, and pushed him out of the distance with a slap, and his body hit a big tree with a "bang", and his back was shaken to the point of pain.
