Chapter 506 Millennium Spirit Grass
The three of us had just leaned over and hid in the swamp mud, and not long after, a few black figures appeared behind the gray fog.
These people rushed over quickly, stopped not far ahead, and looked around.
One of them said:
"Strange, I clearly saw the yang energy on the three of them running towards this side, but I couldn't see it when I chased after me?"
"Let's look around carefully, but don't let the three slip away from our noses, otherwise we will not be able to submit the job when we go back."
As these people spoke, they spread out and chased them quickly in different directions.
Seeing this, Shama was about to stand up from the quagmire.
I quickly reached out and grabbed him:
"Don't move!"
"What's wrong?" Shama asked in confusion as he looked at me.
"Be patient, they will definitely come back again," I said.
After hearing this, Shama nodded and continued to lie in the mud.
Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, several black shadows appeared near the quagmire. They searched for a long time but did not find the three of us before leaving.
After seeing the group completely walking away, I patted Shama on the shoulder beside me and said to him:
"Everything is gone, now you can get up."
Shama then stood up from the mud, shook his head hard, and threw the black mud on his head in my face.
"Oh my god, I'm leaving. If I don't leave, if I don't get killed by these people, I will definitely be smoky to death by these stinky mud!" Shama quickly jumped out of the mud.
Wang Ningning also walked out of the mud behind us. The three of us cleaned up the black mud on ourselves for a while, and then I chose a safer direction and took them to walk quickly.
So far, we have been tricked into the demon-suppressing place by Chen Yan, but we have no idea what method should be used to get out from here.
Shama said to me as he walked:
"Brother Wang Cheng, if we can't escape from the Demon Suppression Land this time, will we starve to death here? You see, this place has nothing but stones and sand."
I said to Shama:
"If Jiuyan and Qianmian win, they will definitely come back to find us and take us out. So my top priority is not to find a way out, but to be careful while avoiding tracking, so as not to provoke the ferocious beast demon in this demon-suppressing land."
"That's the reason, but what if they lose?" Shama continued to ask me.
"If we lose, we can only find a way out on our own. In short, no matter what conditions and desperate situations are under, we must not give up on ourselves."
After hearing what I said, Shama had some confidence:
"That's it, let's do what you said, and wait for a while. If those two people don't come to save us, we will find a way to escape from the Demon Suppression Land. Those who can come in will definitely be able to go out."
Half a day passed, and it was getting dark, but the three of us still didn't wait for Jiuyan and Qianmian to rescue him.
The unknown premonition was like a dark cloud that was pressing on our heads all the time.
The night fell as scheduled, but Jiuyan and Qianmian never appeared.
So Shama, and Wang Ningning, I decided not to rest tonight and found a way to get out of the Demon Suppression Land overnight.
At first we tried the method used to enter this Demon Suppression Land, but found that it was simply ineffective, so we could only think of another method.
I think we haven't found the right place. Perhaps if we find the right place, we can open the door to the outside world again and get out from here.
So we began to search for places where this demon-suppressing place seemed suspicious.
When passing by a sand slope, Shama's feet slipped and her whole body was completely swallowed by the sand. In an instant, she disappeared into the dune!
It was so fast that Wang Ningning and I didn't react.
"Shama!" I shouted and ran towards the place where the Shama was swallowed, but Wang Ningning hugged me tightly with her arms behind me:
"Wang Cheng, don't go there. If you go there, not only can't save Shama, but you will even be swallowed by the sand yourself!"
Wang Ningning's words made me calm down for the time being, but even calmer, people must be saved. I cannot watch the Shama who came in with me and died and was buried here.
I don't think this kind of thing is allowed to happen.
As time goes by, neither Wang Ningning nor I thought of a suitable solution.
Can't wait any longer! I said and ran towards the dune directly.
Not long after I ran out, the sand dune suddenly bulged, and then a person's head emerged from under the sand. This sudden change scared me, stopped and looked carefully, and found that the head was Shama.
"Shama, how did you climb out?" I looked at Shama and found it incredible.
Shama turned around and looked at me and said:
"Brother Wang Cheng, there are layers of stone steps below. I kicked my feet hard and the person came up." He said as he tried hard to climb out of the pile of sand.
Seeing this, I hurried over and pulled him out from under the sand.
"Shama, you just said that there is a layer of stone steps under the sand?" I asked Shama at the sand below.
Shama nodded:
"Yes, and there is still a vacuum below. I fell down and thought I was dead. After staying down for a while, I felt that I could still breathe, so I recovered."
Shama now said that he was still scared of what had just happened.
When I heard Shama's words, I immediately decided to dig out the sand and see what was hidden underneath.
When the three of us worked together to dig up the layer of sand and soil, we indeed saw the stone steps that Shama had just mentioned.
However, on this black stone steps, there are dense human body skeletons.
At first glance, I felt my scalp numb.
"This...what exactly is this? How come there are so many dead bones?" Wang Ningning looked shocked.
"The mass grave that was buried with people?" Shama guessed.
"No, in ancient times, people who were buried with their heads were either cut off, cut off in half, or killed by heavy objects, but the skeletons of these people were complete and they were not the ones who were buried with them." I said.
"Since it's not a burial, how could there be so many dead people in this place?" Wang Ningning asked.
I looked at these white skeletons and said:
"Maybe there is some poisonous mechanism near this stone staircase, or someone deliberately piled up the skeletons of these dead people here."
"Then, should we go down the stone steps and take a look?" Shama asked.
I took out the flashlight from my carry-on backpack and turned on the light. The dark stone steps were covered with dead bones. At first glance, it made people feel chilled...
"Forget it, this place is too weird. We can't go on." Just as I said this, the old pervert Bu Zhengjing said to me:
"Wang Cheng, there is something underneath, you must take the risk and take a look."
"What?" I asked.
Bu Zhengjing said excitedly to me:
"I felt the fragrance of medicine. If I hadn't made a mistake in judgment, there was a thousand-year-old spiritual herb under the stone steps. This herb is once a lifetime, but it can survive in any harsh environment, even without sunlight, moisture and oxygen. Even I have never seen this spiritual herb."
"Thousand-year-old spiritual herb? How did you know that there is this herb below?" I felt that it was a bit unreliable when I heard what Bu Zhengjing said.
Bu Zhengjing immediately shouted at me:
"I am the number one master of alchemy in the Yin and Yang realms. Being able to distinguish and determine various rare herbs is my most basic ability. Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and take me down and take a look! If it is really a thousand-year-old spiritual herb, you and I may have no opponents in the Yin and Yang realms in the future!"
Although I think what Bu Zhengjing said is definitely an exaggeration, I was really curious about what magical effect this thousand-year-old spiritual herb was able to give way to Bu Zhengjing so excited, so I planned to walk down the stone steps to see.
For safety reasons, I asked Shama and Wang Ningning to wait for me on the top so that I could answer me at any time. Then I took Bu Zhengjing and Princess Aogu down the black stone steps full of bones...
As soon as I entered the stone steps, I had only one feeling in my mind: cold, extremely cold!
