I myself was extremely nervous, but Chen Mo standing next to me was quite calm, but I didn’t know what kind of battle they had just endured, so looking at Chen Mo’s face that was so pale that there was no blood at all, I felt already
Be mentally prepared to use yourself as the main force in this battle.
However, even though he was ambitious in his heart, his hands and feet could not help but tremble, and his palms were soaked with cold sweat.
"Chen Mo, what is it that makes this weird noise?" I kept asking Chen Mo.
Because that thing could only hear its sound from beginning to end but could not see its shape, my psychological defense line was almost broken by it.
"It's hair, a big ball of hair, but there should be a body in the middle of the hair." Chen Mo said with his mouth open, but his eyes kept looking around vigilantly. It seemed that the ball of hair was beside us and would attack us at any time.
Same.
"Hair, how can hair attack people?" I asked in confusion.
"That day, my hair looked as soft as cattails, but in fact it was as if it was made of reinforced concrete, extremely hard, and each hair strand had countless split ends, and those split ends were like
Just like a beast, as long as it is swiped, the skin will be torn apart." Chen Mo spoke a little faster this time, as if he wanted to let me know the opponent's strength as quickly as possible, so that I can know myself and the enemy, so that I can better deal with monsters.
.
While we were talking, another sound was suddenly added to the low roar just now. This sound was similar to the cry of a baby, or it might be more appropriate to say that it was a cat screaming.
As soon as I heard this sound, I immediately thought of the group of black cats in the ancient temple in Wawushan. Are there also black cats at the bottom of Poyang Lake?
When I think of those pairs of green eyes in the dark, I can't help but get a thick layer of goosebumps on my arms.
"Zhou Cang, be careful. It seems that the opponent is not as simple as we thought. After it appears, I will hold it back first, and then you will find a chance to escape." Chen Mo's head was covered with a face that was extremely pale.
, the skin on the lips has basically turned outwards, and there are pieces, like crumbs of soda crackers stuck to it.
"Chen Mo, we have known each other for more than ten years, do you think I would be the kind of person who would leave my good brother's life or death alone and run away alone?" I said to Chen Mo seriously.
Chen Mo didn't speak, but patted my shoulder with his hand, and then smiled at me.
"Live and die together." I turned my hand around and gave Chen Mo's hand a firm squeeze.
This grasp can be regarded as a morale booster.
Chen Mo smiled faintly, then looked at me and said, "Even if everyone dies, you won't die. They won't let you die."
There was obvious helplessness in his tone.
I asked while the iron was hot: "Who are they?"
"You will know in the future, and one day you will know." After he finished speaking, he looked up at the blue prayer flag not far from us, and said with a change of tone: "It's coming."
I originally wanted to ask further, but when I saw Chen Mo's expression suddenly changed, I became nervous.
At this moment, some gray-black hair strands hung down from the upper part of the prayer flags in front, and they kept falling.
Just like Chen Mo said, it is a ball of hair, hair that can move.
The hair is getting lower and lower, and almost the entire hair is in my sight.
Although there was still some distance between the hair and us, I could still see two huge horns sticking out from both sides of the hair.
Could it be that it is a cow?
The density of prayer flags is very high, so it is basically difficult to distinguish the whole picture of something five meters away from our eyes. We can only guess based on the partial image, which is quite a bit like knowing the whole thing at a glance.
"Chen Mo, are we going to deal with a cow?" I asked Chen Mo nonchalantly.
To be honest, even if the opposite side is just an ordinary cow, judging from the sickly looks of the two of us now, it may not be its opponent, not to mention the pair of horns sticking out of the hair on the opposite side.
It turned out that this was an unknown breed of cow that might be several times larger than an ordinary buffalo, so my two weak legs were already starting to weaken.
"If it's a cow, that's fine, I'm afraid it's not just a cow." Chen Mo said softly, but his eyes were staring straight at the mass of gray-black hair in front of him.
I thought to myself, yes, how could this cow make a cat's sound?
Moreover, the creatures that can exist at the bottom of Poyang Lake are definitely not ordinary species, and are most likely extinct creatures.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but imagine many scenes of fighting with ancient mythical beasts in my mind. It seemed that I could already predict the result of myself and Chen Mo being torn into pieces by this ball of hair.
"Zhou Cang, be careful." Chen Mo suddenly shouted and pushed me to the right.
I was completely unprepared. I was pushed down all of a sudden and rolled several times in the prayer flags. The prayer flags hanging on the ground almost trapped my whole body.
While I was rolling among the prayer flags, the sharp cat meowing in the air became more and more obvious, almost heartbreaking.
When I stood up again, I could no longer see Chen Mo, but in front of me was a monster with a minotaur face. The mass of gray-black hair on the back of its head was like a snail's shell, allowing it to control whether it wanted to move or not.
Face exposed.
The Minotaur has no body. Under the messy hair, there are four horseshoe-like things. I don't know if they are its feet.
The scene in front of me immediately reminded me of the description of the 茰貐 in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas": "Two hundred miles to the north, there is a mountain called Shaoxian. It has no vegetation and is mostly green. There are beasts, and their shape is like an ox.
And the naked body, the face of a human, the feet of a horse, its name is Yayu, its sound is like a baby, it means cannibalism."
The ancient mythical beast in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" ran into the enclosure at the bottom of Poyang Lake. Maybe it was the mythical beast guarding the blue jade astrolabe.
Just when I was still obsessed with studying the appearance of the Minotaur, the Minotaur suddenly raised its four rusty red hooves at the same time. It felt like it was approaching me.
I was startled and was about to step back in a hurry. I didn't expect that those colorful prayer flags were still wrapped around my body, so I tripped and fell to the ground again.
Ouch, now it has really become meat on the chopping board. It is said in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" that this kind of monster can eat people, but I look like this, so it doesn't look very tasty.
I was so frightened that I almost didn't know how to run away. I sat there blankly and watched the Minotaur approaching me little by little.
"Zhou Cang, hurry up and take out the thing you brought out from the ancient temple. All the living creatures at the bottom of the lake may recognize the owner." Chen Mo's voice came from the cluster of prayer flags in front of him.
I didn't have time to think, so I almost reflexively took out the dark red stone piece from my body, held it in my hand, then closed my eyes and pushed it forward with both hands.
It's really amazing. This human-faced minotaur didn't attack me. I slowly opened my eyes, but the scene in front of me shocked me.
Each of the two horns of the human-faced Minotaur has a yellow prayer flag wrapped around it, and the other end of the prayer flag is in Zhou Lan's hand.
The brothers met for the first time in thirty years, but they didn't expect it to be in this way.
Looking at the man in front of me who looks exactly like me, but his eyebrows are a little more aged and indifferent than mine. Is it because he has been away from his family since he was a child?
I was speechless for a moment, so I could only yell: "Brother".
"Xiao Cang, I'll deal with it, you leave quickly." Zhou Lan said, looking straight at the Minotaur with a human face.
"Brother, let's deal with it together." I came back to my senses, untied the prayer flags from my body, then walked to Zhou Lan and said.
"Xiao Cang, it is the product of the failed biochemical experiment of the witch doctor group in ancient times. I know how to deal with it." Zhou Lan's voice was not loud, but his tone was firm, giving people a power that is difficult to express in words.
"Brother, what witch doctor group? What biochemical experiment? It's too complicated. I don't understand it. Just tell me what method you need to use to deal with it, and I'll help you." I said.
"You don't need to worry about me. This is not the first time I have come into this enclosed building. I know the twists and turns here. You should leave quickly. What can this little monster do to me? We don't have much time, Xiao Cang.
We have to split up. As for other matters, I will find you after we leave Poyang Lake and explain them to you personally." Zhou Lan said and pushed me.
The human-faced Minotaur, which was bound by the two prayer flags in his hands, had begun to struggle to break free, as if the target was me.
"Brother, Chen Mo..."
"I know he will walk out of the bottom of Poyang Lake safely." Zhou Lan spoke very quickly, using a speed that urged me to leave quickly, but his eyes never left the Minotaur-faced monster.
.
He is actually very similar to his grandfather, not only in the similarities between his eyebrows, but also in spirit. Looking at him, I seem to be able to see my grandfather when he was young. They both have a calm and self-defeating temperament, whether it is
In front of him or grandpa, I always played the most cowardly role.
Therefore, I said, "Brother, be careful," then turned around and walked towards the depths of the prayer flags.
