The anxious scratching sounds outside the barrier were still ringing, and some even became irritable, as if they had lost their patience and wanted to rush in right away.
After a period of adequate sleep and rest, Chen Zhi's brain has completely regained his sanity and clarity. The high temperature in the black desert just now made his brain chaotic. At this time, his brain was working at an extremely fast speed.
All the circumstances are combined to judge the situation at hand.
This underground city in the black desert exudes a turbid mineral smell with high carbon and mercury content. This is a situation often encountered in volcanic soil layers that are tens of thousands of years old.
This shows that the existence of this underground ancient city is definitely more than 10,000 years. In other words, the existence of this city far exceeds the time period when Emperor Xuanyuan and Chi You fought. It is a real city.
The construction date of this ancient city that surpasses human civilization cannot be verified at all.
But one thing that is certain now is that this ancient city can stand tall in this hot underground black sand and has not been reduced to ashes like other buildings. This shows that this city must have its own unique features.
It can withstand high temperatures and is likely to have some connection with the ancient god of drought.
The ancient god of drought may have existed in this city, or maybe the tomb of the god of drought was built in this city.
The place where they are now is a black castle. This castle is undoubtedly the main building here. It is probably a palace or a temple, and they are now about 100 meters underground in this black castle.
The cool air leaking out from the gap between the stone slabs lying under Chen Zhi was very smooth and refreshing. This is the characteristic of water vapor in the underground river, which can keep the castle cool in the hot black desert. This proves that underneath the castle
There is probably a large underground river, big enough to rival the hot desert above.
“Zi la la~~~~~Zi la la~~~~~”
Another harsh scratching sound sounded at the edge of the barrier, stimulating Chen Zhi's nerves. Chen Zhi felt that the power outside the barrier was more powerful than human beings, and it was as brutal and violent as a beast.
Things outside really want to come in, but they are hesitant.
Now one thing is certain, that is, there must be witches in the underground, and those scratching the barrier outside are probably this kind of thing. Just now in the black desert, Chen Zhi had already experienced the power of witches. Their
The strength is really great. If it were to rely on physical strength alone, Chen Zhi's strength would not be able to defeat it.
But the warriors of ANBU are very powerful. They should not be hurt by the brute force of the witches, so that they die under their claws. Maybe..., maybe these witches are not as simple as they seem on the surface.
, they may also have a more powerful ability, which can make ANBU warriors die under their claws and fangs.
Chen Zhi gently took away Guidao's hand covering his mouth, and then wrote a few words in his palm. Guidao immediately understood, walked over quietly, reached out and gently picked up the kettle next to him, and shook it hard on the ground.
fall.
"Bang~~~~~~",
This sound was like a muffled thunder in this silent night, extremely loud and harsh.
At the same time, Chen Zhi instantly turned on the searchlight on his uniform, and the surrounding area immediately became brighter.
Whether it is a person or an animal, they should be stunned when they are frightened for a moment. No matter how fast they react, there should be a moment of stillness. And this state is what Chen Zhi wants to see, the one outside the barrier.
The true form of the thing being scratched.
But when Chen Zhi's searchlight turned on, the surrounding area was instantly illuminated, and the dark and dilapidated fountain appeared in front of Chen Zhi's eyes again, but the area around the barrier was empty and there was nothing.
"That's weird. We clearly heard a sound just now. It was something scratching the barrier. That's right. Then why is there nothing now? Can it run so fast? Impossible..."
Chen Zhi and Guidao immediately stood up and used searchlights to scan the surrounding darkness. They carefully looked at every corner. There was indeed no suspicious shadow. The stone room was quiet and there was no living thing except the three of them.
There was no point in searching anymore. At this time, Chen Zhi silently recited the incantation, moved the air current, and withdrew the sealing barrier of the fierce curse.
After the barrier was removed, Chen Zhi and Gui Dao discovered that around the edge of the seal, there were rows of densely packed handprints and footprints, as if nearly a hundred people had gathered outside the barrier.
People are very scared.
"It seems that when we were sleeping just now, they were always around us, but they just couldn't come in."
At this time, Ghost Sword sheathed the long sword in his hand, looked around vigilantly, and whispered,
"Their voices are very soft, and they can hide their whereabouts. Even I didn't hear it. It is estimated that the dead ANBU warriors in the fountain died at the hands of these things while they were resting here. Thanks to the strong curse we have.
The world protects us, otherwise we would have died in the darkness just now."
"Hide my whereabouts from you? Is it possible...and how to do it?",
Chen Zhi said in disbelief that he knew the sensitivity of the Ghost Sword best. Chen Zhi once saw with his own eyes that when the Ghost Sword was in the yard, he could hear the sound of mosquitoes flying a hundred meters away. His ears were sharper than radar.
No one's deeds, not even gods, can be hidden from his senses.
"have no idea",
Ghost Sword answered silently, still looking at the darkness around him vigilantly.
"But it can avoid me. It's very powerful. It seems that we have to be more careful in the future. We can't stay here any longer and must leave quickly."
After Ghost Sword finished speaking, he stood outside with his sword and signaled Chen Zhi to wake up Fat Wei.
"It seems that I really underestimated those marauders before. They may be more complicated than we thought."
Chen Zhi thought in his mind, turned around and looked back at Fat Wei lying on the ground.
Fat Wei was still in a coma, but there was blood on his face and he seemed to be in much better condition. His forehead was no longer hot and he was breathing evenly. His life should have been saved.
Chen Zhi froze Pang Wei's lips and forehead with water from the kettle, and shook his shoulders vigorously. Pang Wei gradually came to his senses.
"Oh! My God!",
After seeing Chen Zhi, Fat Wei closed his eyes first, and then said in a weak voice.
"Did I go to hell after I died? How can I still see your big face? You are more damning than a demon, and you will still haunt me after you die."
"Please wake up quickly!",
Chen Zhi pulled Fat Wei's big head hard and said,
"It's still early for you to die. Wake up quickly. It's not safe here. We have to leave quickly, otherwise something might come out later."
