Chapter 271: Hidden Murder
Remember in one second,
Another time, there was no danger. Everyone escaped the disaster safely, but one person still died. This Taoist was a man with some courage. It was a pity to die like this, but now is not the time to be sad, so the road still has to be taken.
"Lao Zhuo Liao died last night, and we were not by our side. I don't know where his soul went. Did he go to the underworld? Or was he taken away by the local mountain god land?" A Taoist asked in a low voice while walking on the road.
Lao Bai walked beside him, shook his head and sighed, "No matter where he went, it is destiny. Even if we get his soul, we cannot resurrect him. It is better to bring his ashes and hand them over to his family when we go back, which is a bit of explanation."
"Amitabha Buddha, Master Bai said this great good..."
The road in the back mountain is much harder to walk than in the front mountain. There are no roads in many places, and there are cliffs and a section inside is swampy. If you hadn't seen the bones of wild beasts beside you, Xiao Yu and the others would probably have walked in.
Apart from the swamp, the rest are those annoying mosquitoes. For some reason, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the back mountain, and the mosquitoes are very big. They follow people all day long and keep a look at them from time to time, making people unable to guard against them.
When he arrived at the back mountain, Xiao Yu found a place where no one was left and put a few bear paws into the ancient jade to avoid being damaged. Since putting some food in it, the ghost generals did somehow, and even built a pool in the corner, and there were a few ice rocks, which were formed.
There is not much food in the mountains, but there are quite a lot of honeycombs. Xiao Yu and the others took the wrong path at one time and walked randomly to the edge of a cliff. They found many honeycombs there. So after everyone used talisman fire to drive away the bees, honey became something that everyone rushed to fill their hunger every day.
In addition to honey, there are some wild fruits and wild vegetables in the mountains, which have become everyone's main food. During the period, Xiao Yu also secretly took out some food from the ancient jade and distributed it to Lao Bai and the others. Although they didn't know where they came from, they didn't ask much about the mysterious Xiao Yu, so the entire team, Xiao Yu and Maoshan disciples lived the best life.
However, along the way, Xiao Yu saw very few spiritual objects, just the leopards and wild boars that he saw at the beginning. The things behind the road seemed to have disappeared and never appeared.
There was also a rat demon. Xiao Yu didn't expect that thing would follow him into the back mountain. It was Xiao Yu who discovered the other party during a hunting trip. It was a yellow rat that should have a hundred years of cultivation. After Xiao Yu discovered it, he turned into the soil and never appeared behind it.
After tossing and turning, another half a month passed, everyone had lost weight, but their energy and spirit seemed to be much better, which should be related to the abundant spiritual energy in the mountains.
On the afternoon of that day, Xiao Yu and others passed through a canyon and opened the way among the thorns for three or four hours. Finally, at noon, they arrived at a basin. There was a large lake in the basin and surrounded by grasslands.
The grass seemed to have been pruned, but there was no drop at a height. Moreover, the lake water was extremely clear. There was a small platform in the middle of the lake, with no grass growing on it and no plants.
"I finally saw the lake. Can I take a shower first? I'm so bad."
Xiao Yu looked at the lake ahead, as if he saw a beauty, his eyes shining.
Not only did he think so, everyone who was leaving had the same thoughts. After a month, everyone did not take a bath or change their clothes. It can be said that now they are no different from the savages. The clothes of the ghost corpse were sewn by Lao Bai with bear skin, because each time the other party hunted, they would scratch their clothes, and there was no way to sew them with animal skin clothes.
Xiao Yu looked like he was gone. His beard had grown to two inches long, and his chin was dark from his temples to his chin. Compared with before, he had turned from a young man to an adult uncle. Even the two little guys could not recognize him.
"Damn, I brought a lot of food, but I didn't bring a shaver. I used this dagger to shave my chin with a knife." Xiao Yu sat on the ground and said depressedly.
Not only Xiao Yu, but also Mu Liutian, Zhou Jun and others, they are all the same. Even if someone brings a razor, they will use it in turn at the beginning, and in the end they will not be able to use it without electricity.
"So beautiful, is this a grassland..."
"I want to stay here for a few days, have a few good meals and take a shower, otherwise I'm sorry for such a big lake."
A group of people sat on the grass and sighed, and then someone rushed towards the lake, as if they were ready to clean it up.
"Look at those fools, this lake is so quiet, I wonder what's inside. Isn't it that I dare to continue like this? Isn't it because I'm asking for death?" Mu Liutian lay beside Xiao Yu and joked.
Xiao Yu also smiled, and suddenly turned over and sat up. The two of them looked at each other and hurriedly shouted to the distance, "Come back quickly, be careful of something in the water."
But no one paid attention to their calls. Several girls were already standing by the lake and began to water each other and start fighting.
Below the lake, a yellow aquarium python as thick as an adult's thigh was slowly swimming out from the bottom of the water. The aquarium was more than 20 meters long and was hiding in the sight of aquatic plants. However, as he swam, the lake water gradually became turbulent.
"Come back soon, don't die, right?" Mu Liutian rushed to the distance of the lake and shouted.
"You are desperate, you are crazy."
A short-haired girl who had a holiday with Mu Liutian before saw Mu Liutian calling them, immediately put her hands on her hips and stood there and cursed.
Behind the two girls, the yellow python gradually floated up. Because the water beside the lake was very shallow and could no longer hide its shape, the yellow python could only swim to the water surface.
The yellow python's dozens of meters long body instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the shore. The two girls were cleaning their hair because they turned their backs to the lake, and they didn't see the huge head above their heads at all, and they were getting closer and closer to them.
"Shit...".
The aquamarine seemed to be teasing the two of them, and deliberately made a sound. The two women looked back unconsciously and immediately fell into the water in fear. At this moment, the yellow python opened its bloody mouth and swallowed it at a woman.
At this critical moment, I heard the sound of "bang...bang..." and the arched body of the yellow python retracted into the water again. For a moment, the lake water rolled, causing thousands of layers of waves.
Looking at the disappearing yellow python, everyone swallowed and then looked at the person who shot. The person who shot was a professor from the archaeological team. The other party was holding a black pistol in his hand and looking at the lake with a gloomy face.
Xiao Yu looked at the other side and looked at him. He didn't take out a pistol to rescue him when the Taoist was killed. Now that the student is in danger, he took it out, obviously he didn't take these Taoist people into consideration.
Such people are indeed afraid, which can be regarded as a reminder for Xiao Yu, and they should be more careful about others, so as not to accidentally eat peanuts that day.
The professor quickly put away the snatch and shouted, "Isn't come back yet, are you crazy?"
The two girls were obviously frightened and sat in the water without any movement. When they heard the shouts on the shore, they immediately ran to the shore.
But at this moment, the lake water rolled up again, and the yellow python that had just escaped flew out, biting the girl who was about to get ashore, and then quickly dragged it into the water. Then the water waves in the lake rolled, and the woman didn't even make a shout, and the lake water turned bloody.
