At this time, there was a hazy light and shadow passing by in the sky.
If there is, it seems to be non-existent. The light goes out for one second, and then brightens again the next second.
The huge black shadow that flashed by looked like the top of a mountain, or like a dense black cloud, rolling over from high in the sky. Its huge body covered the entire sky, and it quickly swam deep into the wilderness.
Ling Xiyue and the others quickly walked out of this piece of dead grass and stopped where a few dead trees gathered.
Malone rested his hands on his knees, panting heavily, and looked towards the boundless darkness behind, "What was that?" xdw8
Only then did I slowly realize that this place was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.
"It should be that the horse we left behind was eaten by something in the dark." Ha Tai said tremblingly. At this time, recalling the situation when he found his sheep more than ten years ago, he suddenly felt a wave of excitement.
Scalp numbness.
It was definitely a mistake for him to take this trip!
No, he has to go back!
"What, a lion, a tiger?" Malone blinked.
Although I was unsure, the best thing to do was to deal with these things. These ferocious beasts were dangerous, but nothing could be done about them. Besides, the emperor and the empress were still there, so dealing with lions, tigers, etc. was no problem at all.
Ha Tai shook his head, "Maybe..."
He didn't see it, and he didn't hear anyone talk about it. Everyone who saw it is probably dead!
"In a place like this, lions and tigers are just side dishes, not worth mentioning." Ling Xiyue sat down on a mound of dirt and said a neutral word.
Ma Long looked at Ling Xiyue in disbelief. Are the most ferocious beasts just appetizers?
So what other things are out there, and how terrible they are...
Bei Chenyan, who was observing the surroundings, turned around and whispered hoarsely, "That thing must have gone far away." The ears in the black hair twitched slightly, and he heard some noises around him, "There is the smell of insects and beasts nearby."
Gradually, the buzzing of insects began to appear all around, and the dead silence just now disappeared.
This is a normal atmosphere. Something extremely dangerous must have passed by just now, and the nearby birds and beasts were so frightened that they made no move.
Ling Xiyue nodded, "Already gone."
That's why she's giving up!
Here, keeping something like this that can be frightened and out of control at any time is simply the biggest hidden danger. The target is also too big and it is easy to be targeted.
"I just said, I just said you can't come to this place." Ha Tai walked among a few people, still in shock, he looked at Ling Xiyue, "Master, you are also here at the celestial burial place, why don't you give me my reward?"
, let me go back."
"Okay." Unexpectedly, Ling Xiyue agreed.
Ha Tai was immediately delighted, "Really?" He rubbed his hands, "Then, then my reward..."
Ling Xiyue's red lips slightly curled up, she thrust the dagger in her hand into the ground, raised her jaw and pointed at the dark place behind her, "The legs are on your body, I won't force you to stay or go, but I still kindly remind you,
Are you sure you want to go back alone now?"
Ha Tai looked at the path swallowed by the darkness, and then recalled the miserable neighing of the horses just now, and suddenly became excited.
Ma Long and Ying Yi stepped out of the way and said they would not stop him.
"Well, let's forget it..." Ha Tai swallowed and smiled.
Ling Xiyue took out the dagger and said, "Follow me honestly. When you find what I want, I will let you go home safely. Don't try to make any trouble and let something like losing a horse happen again."
She spends a lot of money, but she is not taken advantage of!
"I, I..." Ha Tai was shocked and speechless for a while.
Did she know that he was the one who took those horses away at Yunlai Inn?
He also backed down for a while, but later saw that she was really generous with her money, and regretted it... and wanted to get more.
"I don't care about what happened before." Ling Xiyue's calm eyes fell on him without blinking, and her voice was slow, "But here, if you dare to do anything wrong again, I will kill you piece by piece.
Scrape it off, bake it and eat it..."
That expression left no one doubting the authenticity of her words.
She smiled at the end and said word by word, "You know?"
A bone-chilling chill went straight through the sky!
Ha Tai was really about to cry now. Didn't you say that before?
"I know, I know." He agreed stumblingly, but he still dared to say no at this moment.
At this moment, Ha Tai felt that nothing around him was as scary as the person in front of him!
Bei Chenyan's eyes moved, he walked to Ling Xiyue, sat down next to her, and wrapped her cold fingers with his big palms.
After entering this place, the hostility and darkness in Xiyue were something he had never felt before. Although he didn't know what she had experienced, he hoped that she would not return to her original state.
This kind of her made him feel distressed.
Feeling Bei Chenyan's warmth, Ling Xiyue fell into a trance, and her eyes warmed slightly.
Holding the man's warm and strong hand, Ling Xiyue looked up at Ha Tai and smiled brightly, "Why are you making this expression? It's just a joke. Relax."
Hatai's heart was rising and falling suddenly, and he was laughing along with "Haha", but the laughter was uglier than crying, and his face turned into a chrysanthemum shape with pain.
It's not funny at all, okay?
Ma Long's old face trembled and he suppressed a smile.
Why does he feel that he has some sympathy for this guy?
Ling Xiyue smiled, then got back to the topic and asked, "In which direction is the Valley of the Dead you mentioned?"
Ha Tai pursed his lips, raised his hand and pointed to the east. He must have been really frightened. He was so serious that he replied obediently, "It's like thirty miles from here, through that canyon, to the center of the Celestial Burial Wasteland.
A place you must pass through.”
Ling Xiyue turned her eyes and looked over there.
In the gray sky, the outline of the mountains can be faintly seen.
The golden sacred grass must grow in a place with water, but judging from the humidity of the surrounding soil and the smell of the wind, there is no water source for dozens of miles nearby, so most likely, you will have to go through the Valley of the Dead and enter the central area.
"Let's rest here today, find some dry firewood, and light the fire." Ling Xiyue withdrew her eyes.
A few people quickly found pieces of firewood nearby, and the slow flames melted the cold, forcing the darkness back and driving them out of a bright place.
Ling Xiyue took out a coil of silk thread as thin as a hair from her body, with a fingertip-sized silver bell at the end, and tied it along the surrounding vegetation. She knelt there half-kneeling, and finally tied the silk thread into a loop.
As long as it is broken anywhere, the bell at the end will make a warning sound. It is not loud, but it is enough for Ling Xiyue to hear it, even if she is asleep.
"Why do you always have something weird about you?" Bei Chenyan stood behind Ling Xiyue, a faint smile melting in his ice eyes.
Ling Xiyue clapped her hands and stood up, "Be prepared."
Bei Chenyan couldn't help but smile.
However, while they were busy working on their own, no one noticed that in the sky, countless pairs of strange diamond-shaped eyes slowly opened, blending into the darkness, and the next moment, they closed quietly again...
