For the next section of the road, I followed the terrain described in He Tao's notes. After traveling day and night, I finally arrived at the swamp two days later in the morning.
This is a very strange place, surrounded by open space, but warm as spring, and you can't hear a sound of wind. The swamp in front is shrouded in a thick fog, which is also mixed with traces of light red color, and there is a smell.
The smell of putrid corpses wafted over.
Because the fog here would only dissipate at noon, I could only wait where I was, but just as I was about to get something to eat, I heard the sound of people talking not far away.
No need to think about it, now that we are here, the people who come here must be coming for the sacred lake inside. I feel a little dizzy, this is already the third batch, not counting myself, it seems that everyone in the world knows about it now
Now that this place has become a vegetable market, has anyone been able to come and take a stroll?
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sneer. Can a large number of people play a decisive role? If it were so easy, then this matter should have been solved decades ago.
I hid in the bushes nearby, and soon I saw a group of seven or eight people arriving in front of the swamp. They were all unfamiliar faces. Everyone had a big backpack on their back, which was bulging, and they obviously brought a lot.
tools and guys.
What surprised me was that the person walking in the front was a woman wearing black clothes with a black cloth covering her face. Wasn't she the girl who saved me in the Taiji Tomb in Henan?
I was a little shocked, why is she here? I didn’t see cross-eyes this time, where did he go?
These people obviously knew the situation here very well, and they all stopped where they were and rested, while the woman in black slowly walked towards where I was hiding.
My heart skipped a beat. What did she want to do? Did she want to come over and relieve herself? If that was the case, she would definitely find me.
But what I didn't expect was that she just stopped two meters in front of my hiding place, glanced at me, and suddenly said: "Hide tighter, there is a person over there who is very dangerous. If he is discovered,
Yes, you will have to suffer a bitter meal."
I was shocked by these words. It was obvious that these words were meant for me, and she actually found me. But what puzzled me was why she wanted to help me? Is there any conspiracy in this?
However, the woman did not explain to me. After that, she turned around and left. She just left a message before leaving: "My name is Shuiyue. Remember this name, because he is the person destined by God to accompany you throughout your life."
"
I was stunned and completely froze in place. Is there any more direct confession than this? Oh my god, when did I, a nearly thirty-year-old man, become a hot commodity? Could it be said that the older a man is, the more attractive he becomes?
Big? But it’s not big enough to let a girl who has just met twice say such a thing, right?
This must be an illusion, I must be crazy about women! I comforted myself in my mind. Or she was telling the truth, this must be a conspiracy, a big conspiracy. However, what does this girl look like? What is her personality like?
How are you like? How old are you? How is your family? Still not complete? Anyway, I, Wang Fo, can be considered a small boss. If I can’t meet the requirements, I won’t accept him.
My head was filled with thoughts of one kind or another. In the end, I realized that I was just a sentimental idiot. That sentence could be interpreted in 10,000 ways, such as friends, enemies, partners, etc. Why should I have to
What are you thinking about?
Thinking of this, I felt a little calmer. I smiled bitterly and quietly raised my head to look over there.
The girl said there was a very troublesome person over there, and I soon found out who it was. He was a man in his twenties or seventies, with long hair covering his eyes, a stern face, and an unsmiling look. He was quiet.
Sitting outside the crowd, he held a fine steel Tang knife in his hand and kept wiping it off with his clothes. The chilling atmosphere made people feel uncomfortable for a while.
Which force do these guys belong to? They look like people in the industry, but they don't look like people in the industry. Especially the Tang Dao man, who feels like a cold-blooded killer.
There is a strong sense of oppression.
Just like Shuiyue said, people like this who can be alert and threatening at any time and anywhere have very keen senses. Sometimes you can feel it just by looking at them. So I lay down in the bushes.
Zhong Yi didn't dare to move, but he still slowly started to sweat.
To make matters worse, at some point, a colorful flower snake suddenly appeared in front of me. At first glance, I knew it was a viper with strong venom. It seemed to be particularly sensitive to human smell. It raised its head and squirted in my face.
He was staring at me less than a foot in front of me, swaying from time to time.
I remember when Thai people fight snakes, there is a blind spot in front of the snake. As long as it does not leave that position, the snake will not dare to attack rashly.
I swung my head slightly along with the snake's head. Sure enough, the venomous snake just looked at me doubtfully, but did not launch an attack. It also turned its head from time to time, as if it wanted to crawl away.
At this moment, I heard a whistling sound in my ears, and the snake was completely nailed to the ground. When I saw it, it was a delicate three-edged military thorn that penetrated the entire snake's head and lay on the ground.
He kept twisting his body.
At the same time, Shuiyue's voice came from not far away: "Okay, the fog has begun to dissipate. Everyone, prepare yourself. We must hurry up and get there. Remember, there are many poisonous snakes and insects here, and they know how to confuse people."
, don’t think that they won’t bite people if they look harmless. The closer that time comes, the more time they will launch an attack. If you are poisoned in the swamp, there is only one end. In short, you
You must be careful and don't let me down."
I was sweating coldly as I listened, and I could naturally tell that Shuiyue's last words were meant for me. Thinking about the situation just now, thanks to her military thorn, I might have been bitten by now.
A group of eight people had already entered the swamp. After I could no longer see their figures, I stood up, picked up Shuiyue's military spur from the ground, and quickly chased after it. Time is limited now, so I can't waste a minute here.
.
After entering, I discovered that the swamp was distributed in a fan shape. It was only a few hundred meters wide, but it took me nearly twenty minutes to cross it. In the middle, I encountered some corpses, including animals and humans.
All the poisonous insects were cleared along the way, so I didn't encounter any obstacles.
But the scenery inside the swamp made my eyes shine. It is a wonderful place like a paradise, with lush greenery and flowers and plants everywhere. If you put aside the dangers hidden around you, this is definitely a good place for self-cultivation.
When we arrived at the cave, it happened to be the night of the second day. I guessed that everyone had already gone in. Chen Xiazi was returning to his old place. Axue and the others would not go wrong if they followed him. Shuiyue and the others, on the other hand,
How to find the entrance?
This woman gives me a very mysterious feeling, even more so than Ashue. Maybe she has some other means.
As soon as he got into the cave, he felt a cold feeling. It was cold and faint in the darkness. It was completely different from what He Tao described in his notes. Did he write it wrong? Or was there something wrong here?
The further I walked, the creek became deeper and deeper, the water began to become turbid, and a faint rancid smell kept getting into my nostrils.
I gradually felt that something was wrong. It seemed that a lot of changes had taken place here. It seemed that it had started a long time ago. Could it be that something really happened here? It’s just that He Tao had already left here at that time, and he didn’t mention that I was also there.
unknown.
After walking less than 100 meters, the water had already reached the top of my thighs. At this time, I suddenly stepped on something soft, which felt very problematic to the touch.
I stopped and reached out and touched it, but my heart skipped a beat. I was sure that what I touched was someone's clothes. Needless to say, what I stepped on was definitely a dead person.
I hurriedly took two steps back, when the water in front of me suddenly rolled, and soon a red "person" twisted and floated from the bottom of the water.
He is said to be a human being because he is indeed the corpse of a human being, but now his body is covered with long red pimples, three layers inside and three outside, covering him completely.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that those bright red pimples were actually large transparent leeches, which turned red because they sucked a lot of blood.
My scalp felt numb, and seeing the density, goosebumps appeared on my body one after another. I have always been very resistant to this kind of boneless creature, but now I see so many of them at once,
Naturally, I feel nauseous.
Suddenly, I noticed that some places on my legs were itchy. I couldn't help but be shocked. I quickly rolled up my pants, but I was disgusted with the cold and found that there was already a layer of leeches on my legs, and some of them had turned bright red.
.
I was immediately confused. These things are disgusting even if they don't bite. Now they are everywhere on my legs. I guess some of them will definitely get into my flesh after a while.
I ran forward in a panic. If I didn't find a place to get rid of these damn things quickly, I would probably be sucked and fucked alone soon.
Fortunately, I saw the observatory not far ahead. I climbed up as fast as possible and took off my shoes and pants. But how to get these things gave me a problem. I was asked to pull them off one by one.
If so, it would hurt to death even if it wasn't disgusting.
"Fire?" By the way, an idea flashed in my mind, these things should be afraid of being burned.
I took out the kerosene from the package and lit it, took out Shuiyue's military thorns and heated them, and then knocked them on the leeches.
This trick was indeed very effective. The leeches fell off my body one after another, but my legs were a little unsightly.
Fortunately, I didn't stay in the water for long. Only a few areas of my skin were broken by suction. I gritted my teeth and wiped it with alcohol, then wrapped it with some medicinal gauze.
