There was a coffin very close behind me. It must have been there for too long, and the coffin boards were all rotten. I don’t know how the soft clicking sound came out just now, but when I turned around, I immediately heard it.
When I saw the coffin, I didn't know when a shadow appeared sitting up.
"Holy shit!" My scalp immediately went numb. Didn't Li Fusheng say that there would never be any fraud? Who knew it would happen so quickly.
My flashlight didn't fully shine behind me, and I couldn't see clearly what the shadow looked like, but when I turned around, it obviously moved, and its movements were quick and agile. I was shocked again,
Is this fake zombie going to defy the heavens? Aren’t the zombies in the old saying always have straight joints and can’t jump over any threshold?
But at this time, there was no time to think so much anymore. I yelled, grabbed a piece of rotted wood from beside me, and threw it over the head of the shadow that was coming towards me. This time, my body completely turned around.
direction, the light of the flashlight also shone directly ahead. Under the bright light, my sight was completely attracted again, and my pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.
This time, I was not afraid, but rather a completely unexpected shock, and at the same time, I felt a faint excitement and excitement in my heart.
What did I see?
The figure that jumped out of the coffin was very agile. I couldn't take a picture of it at once, but it immediately came face to face. It stretched its body and looked like a human being, but there wasn't much hair on its head.
, a pair of very big eyes, pitch black and deep. After it dodged my head-on blow, it paused briefly. In that moment, I vaguely recognized that it seemed to be a... shadow creature, and it was a shadow.
The king of living creatures.
The soul boy! It’s the soul boy! Every cell in my body was shaken. This is the second time I saw the soul boy. The first time was in Xihai River, and the first time I faced the soul boy, the distance was far away. However,
This time, the distance was quite close. At that moment, I seemed to have stopped thinking, because for some reason, I was completely attracted by the huge eyes on the soul boy's face.
Those eyes are like a vast universe, boundless, and so deep that it makes people tremble. I feel that there seems to be something hidden in its eyes, just like a spark flying across the sky, but it is captured no matter what.
No. Under such circumstances, being distracted is very fatal. Soul boys are stronger than other shadow creatures, and the most terrifying thing is that they have high IQs and will seize any opportunity to attack at any time and tear them apart with their claws.
Broken my carotid artery.
However, the moment this soul boy looked at me from the front, he seemed to have stopped all movements and stared blankly at my face. There seemed to be an invisible string between us, suddenly creating an invisible resonance.
Everything happened very quickly, and the confrontation only took a blink of an eye. I suddenly woke up, reached out to grab the wood in my hand, and smashed it with all my strength. As soon as I moved, the spirit boy also woke up and hurriedly escaped.
At this time, both Li Fusheng and Kuang Haige reacted to my attack. Li Fusheng was relatively close to me, and he jumped over like an arrow and was already behind me. I suspected that the soul boy who appeared silently just now was
They wanted to sneak attack me, but luckily I was clever. When Li Fusheng also rushed over, the soul boy gave up decisively, turned around and ran away.
That kind of speed cannot be described in words, as if it is an elf in this mountainous area, fast and steady, like a bullet that can change its trajectory halfway, rushing outside. Although Kuang Haige reacted, but the plank road's
The entrance was so wide that he couldn't defend himself at all.
"The soul boy! That's psychic!" Even a calm man like Li Fusheng couldn't help but get excited. We couldn't catch up with the soul boy, so we pinned all our hopes on Kuang Haige. Even if he could stop the soul boy a little, Li Fusheng and I would have a chance.
Catch it.
The time left for Kuang Haige to think was very short. He was a very athletic man. When he heard our shouts, he turned around and rushed towards the soul boy. The running soul boy suddenly turned around in an incredible way, and his body trembled.
He turned to the other side, and then widened the distance between him and Kuang Haige.
boom!
Kuang Haige didn't care about anything. He probably knew that he couldn't surpass the soul boy in terms of speed, so he raised his hand and fired a shot. The shooting accuracy of a pistol is much lower than that of a rifle, especially if you shoot in a hurry while running, it is impossible to have any chance of success.
Opportunistic aiming requires rich experience, super sense, and a little luck to hit the opponent. Kuang Haige is obviously not good at using guns. This shot missed, but he was not allowed to fire a second shot.
He rushed to the edge of the entrance to the plank road and disappeared in a flash.
We also rushed over and lay down on the edge to look down. Under the light, I could only see the figure of the soul boy flashing quickly ten meters below, and then disappeared into the darkness again.
"I can't catch up." Li Fusheng stood up, shook his head regretfully, and said: "If you don't find a way to design and catch this kind of thing, it is impossible to catch it just by speed."
"How did you catch him back then?" Kuang Haige looked at the direction in which the soul boy escaped, and he might have felt a little dissatisfied. His skills were no worse than Li Fusheng's, and they were even better, but the soul boy just escaped under his nose.
Already.
"It took time to get through it. It took almost ten years just to figure out the movement pattern of the soul boy." Li Fusheng said: "Find out its movement pattern, find a way to stay in it, and it took more than ten years to guard it.
, most people don’t have this patience, and even if they do, they don’t have that much time.”
Li Fusheng probably knows more about soul boys than anyone else in the world. The Xihai River Project captured many shadow creatures at that time, but they have never caught soul boys. The IQ of soul boys is equivalent to a dozen human beings.
Years old boy, but the most important thing is that this creature has an unimaginably sensitive sense, especially the sense of danger. If it were not for the time-consuming capital like Li Fusheng, even if technology has developed to this day
, the possibility of catching a soul boy alive is also slim.
"This soul boy is not the one in Xihaihe." I recalled that although there was no obvious difference between the two soul boys in appearance, I could see the difference in their eyes.
Normally, there is only one soul child among the shadow creatures, but from the Xihai River to here, thousands of miles away, it is an extremely vast area, and the king of this area has appeared among the species.
At this moment, the motivation and purpose of Zheng Chuyi's frequent visits here suddenly became clear, but I still couldn't figure it out. The official understanding of this incident only began after the historian's notes were unearthed, and several years passed.
After a long time of deliberation and planning, the Tianji Plan was finally officially launched. Before the Tianji Plan was launched, Zheng Chuyi had already gone crazy and killed his wife. Apparently, he already knew about the sinkhole before he went crazy.
"Let's go down and continue looking." Li Fusheng seemed to have a fanatical desire for the soul boy. I doubt that if he didn't have to worry about lifting the curse, he would probably spend twenty to thirty years or even longer as he did in the past.
Come here and squat to capture the soul boy.
"Is this thing really that important?" I asked, "Just like other shadow creatures, take its brain?"
"No." Li Fusheng shook his head: "If we can catch him, we will kill him and burn his body."
"This..." I was suddenly surprised. What happened to Li Fusheng? He caught the soul boy just to kill him?
"You must not keep that thing. If you see one, you will kill one." Li Fusheng turned around and started crawling down the pit: "You will understand later."
The soul boy obviously escaped along the pit wall, which means that there must be at least a place on the pit wall to stay and borrow strength. We climbed down and found that the pit wall was easier to walk on than we thought. It was uneven, and at certain times
Years ago, someone must have repaired the walls of the pit. There are many gouge marks. If you are brave and careful and have long-lasting physical strength, you can go up and down with bare hands.
We slowly climbed down for about ten meters, and Li Fusheng suddenly stopped. At the same time, Kuang Haige seemed to have discovered something. Following their gazes, I looked up and saw that we were fixed.
On the second rope, something seemed to be swinging back and forth.
Li Fusheng shined his flashlight upward, and I vaguely saw that there must be a person on the rope, but I don't know why. Maybe he climbed too deep, and he was scared. As a result, he held on to the rope and couldn't get up or down, spinning in circles. Kuang Haige
I also used a flashlight to look at it, and now I could see clearly that it was Zheng Shitou.
"Don't move!" Zheng Shitou held the rope tightly. He knew that we had discovered him, so he stopped hiding and shouted to us almost crying: "Don't move!"
"Come down first and speak slowly if you have anything to say."
"What are you talking about?" Zheng Shitou struggled to hold on to the rope. After all, he was a very old man. It was not easy to follow him all the way quietly. He stayed where he was and turned to us and shouted: "No.
You said you couldn't come! What are you doing here again!"
We shouted a few more words, but Zheng Shitou couldn't get down. In the end, there was nothing we could do. The three of us climbed back up again. Li Fusheng and Kuang Haige worked together to get Zheng Shitou off the rope and brought him to the edge of the plank road.
"Ouch! Oops!" As soon as Zheng Shitou arrived at the plank road, he knelt down in front of a pile of coffins inside and kowtowed repeatedly: "Grandfathers and grandmothers, they are all outsiders and don't understand anything. They run away in confusion.
Come here, grandfathers and grandmothers, don’t be like them..."
