At this time, I don't care what happened to Professor Xu and the others.
After all, the two most dangerous guys are right in front of us now. With that big rooster around, I guess they should be able to protect themselves.
After walking forward for about three to five minutes, the air became noticeably moister, and the sound of running water became louder and louder.
After turning a corner, a wide river appeared in front of us.
"I really didn't expect that there is such a big underground river in this place!"
Looking at the rushing water, even Zhang Shisan couldn't help being shocked.
The widest part of the river is nearly fifty or sixty meters wide.
Looking down from the shore, we can only see the dark water of the river, and we really can't see the bottom of the river.
"Are you moving too slowly? If you fall behind, you will be dead in a hurry!"
The cripple suddenly turned his head and grinned at me.
I couldn't help but frown. Is there any danger around here?
But the terrain around here is open, and there seems to be nothing else except this big river.
"Stop trying to scare people here. I'm not scared of anyone!"
Zhang Shisan gave him a disdainful look. He really didn't have any good impressions of the cripple.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat this guy, Zhang Shisan would probably have gone up and fought him tooth and nail by now.
"Believe it or not, we still have a dozen miles to go. If you keep stalling, don't blame us for ignoring you!"
The lame man sneered, then stopped talking, turned his head and strode forward.
Although this guy is lame in one leg and uses a cane, this guy seems to walk much faster than Zhang Shisan.
"Be careful, watch your step, and leave a few marks when you cross the fork in the road!"
I ignored the lame man's threat. Regardless of whether what he said was true or false, the most important thing for us is to ensure that we can find a way back.
"Mr. Zhong, don't worry!"
While Xiao Luan was talking, he took out a tube of something like hand spray paint from his backpack.
"What's this?"
Zhang Shisan looked at him curiously.
"This is the spray paint our exploration team specially uses to make marks. It cannot be seen with the naked eye, but if you wear these special glasses, you can see it clearly!"
While Xiao Luan was speaking, he took out a pair of glasses from his backpack and handed them to Zhang Shisan.
"Mr. Zhong, you really can't tell. This is really high-tech. You can't even tell what it is without glasses!"
Zhang Shisan was so curious that he put it on his eyes. After looking at it for a while, he then specially put it on my eyes for me.
When I opened my eyes and looked over, I saw a white, fluorescent arrow suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.
"Yes, it's really a good thing. At least if we don't tell ourselves, then the damn lame guy probably won't be able to find it!"
I also smiled and nodded towards Xiao Luan. This thing is indeed very useful, especially for our current situation.
Yang Xuejun and Laizi seemed to be very familiar with the nearby terrain, and there were almost no pauses along the way.
Although I am not fat, I am an adult man after all. Xiao Luan and Xiao Wu took turns carrying me along the way, which still made them sweat.
However, at this time, if I don't regain my strength as soon as possible, the life safety of the four of us will not be guaranteed at all, so I can only endure it shamelessly.
We continued walking along the river bank for about an hour.
The physical strength of Xiao Luan and Xiao Wu has almost reached its limit, and I am just barely able to move on my own.
"Mr. Zhong, did you hear anything?"
As Zhang Shisan was walking, he suddenly stopped and whispered.
"Sound? What sound?"
I was stunned and listened carefully, but except for the whistling wind and the sound of water, there was no other sound around me.
"I, I think I heard it too..."
Xiao Luan and Xiao Wu whispered at the same time.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. You have no cultivation base. You'd better block your ears. Otherwise, you might be seduced by the innocent souls in the river soon!"
The cripple suddenly turned around and grinned at the four of us.
"Wrong soul?"
After hearing what the lame man said, I immediately turned my head and looked into the river. Only then did I realize that the originally clear river water had turned blood red at some point!
"This, this is!"
My pupils contracted for a while, and I suddenly realized that I seemed to have made a serious mistake.
"That's right, today is July 7th, and this is the exit of Yin-Yang Road connecting Fancheng to the Yin-Yang Realm!"
After listening to the lame man's words, I suddenly felt that the temperature around me suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees.
"You, you guys want to..."
My eyes widened for a moment, and I understood immediately, these two bastards, what they wanted was nothing else!
According to legend, every July 7th, when the Yin-Yang Road opens, a soul-inducing lantern is always hung at the exit of the Ghost Gate.
It is said that if a living person takes the lamp oil of this soul-inducing lamp, it can prolong life and even regenerate a broken limb!
Looking at the lame man's current appearance, he seems to be trying to regrow his broken leg.
"That's right, I just want the lamp oil for that soul-inducing lamp!"
"But then, what is he doing for?"
This damn cripple wants to use the oil from the soul-inducing lamp to grow his missing leg, but what is Yang Xuejun doing for it?
I can't understand it. After all, it's not easy to get this thing.
"That boy? Don't you know that boy is a eunuch?"
I didn't know how to speak at all. No wonder that boy was so fat, and he always felt weird when he spoke. After talking for a long time, it turned out to be this...
"It's not easy for you two to get that soul-inducing lamp. Besides, if you two fail, you will really be doomed!"
The soul-guiding lamp on the Yin-Yang Road is used to guide the souls wandering around the world. You know without even thinking that this thing will definitely be guarded by Yin soldiers!
These two guys really dare to think about it. It would be fine if they didn't know about this matter. Now that I know about it, I'm really worried about Xiao Luan and the others.
In fact, they can't help at all in this matter. If they are involved, they will simply die.
"Put me down, you three, go back the way you came from now!"
I took a deep breath, then gritted my teeth and said to Zhang Shisan.
