"Who is it?" Qi Min shouted, and he and Xu Feiyang pulled out their knives simultaneously.
This kind of place is always eerie and scary. Today, I met Shitu's killer again. His nerves were so tight that even Xie Pingsheng raised the crossbow in his hand.
His crossbow was really small and small. Bai Yue observed it carefully and felt that he could ask Jian Yu to make one. With a little practice, it would be fine for self-defense.
The black figure probably didn't expect to meet anyone in this place at this moment. Qi Min gave him a shout, and his legs gave out and he fell over. He tried hard to pull with his four claws, but he couldn't stand up.
"Grandpa Ghost, have mercy on me, Grandpa Ghost, have mercy on me." The man didn't dare to open his eyes. He held his head in his hands and trembled, mumbling nonsense: "I don't dare to do it anymore, I don't dare to do it anymore..."
What the hell, Grandpa? Xu Feiyang muttered with an unhappy expression and walked over.
He breathed a sigh of relief. This man looked like a little thief. Although there were poor people in the mass graves, there were always some people who would leave some sacrifices for their buried relatives and friends. Some people were lazy and unwilling to work. Where?
They dare to take anything, so naturally there are people like this in mass graves.
Everyone followed, and Xu Feiyang kicked the man's calf.
"Stop shouting, I'm not your ghost grandpa."
When the man heard this, he carefully opened one eye through his fingers. When he saw it, he collapsed in a cold sweat.
Bai Yue and his party, the young men and women were neatly dressed and holding torches. They seemed to have nothing to do with ghosts.
"You are not ghosts." The man wiped the cold sweat from his face and became afraid.
"You are the ghost." Xu Feiyang lost a little face in front of Bai Yue today and was in a bad mood. Now he was told by that person, which made him even more unhappy: "Who are you? You are in a mass grave in the middle of the night."
What to do?"
The man looked to be in his twenties, and he was well-dressed, but he fell down and scratched his clothes. He was covering his clothes with his hands, and it was obviously bulging inside.
When he was asked by Xu Feiyang, he immediately panicked, and the hand covering his chest became harder, obviously trying to hide it.
"Nothing, nothing." The man said hurriedly: "It's just..."
No matter where it is, it is really difficult to find an excuse for this mass grave in the middle of the night. No normal person would come to this place in the middle of the night.
"What is that?" Xu Feiyang frowned and said, "You're not here to dig graves and steal burial objects, are you?"
The man was even more panicked. He looked around with a sly look, obviously wanting to leave, but there were three men and one woman in front of him. None of the three men looked like they were easy to mess with. Even Xie Ping'an, who looked like a gentle scholar, had a weapon in his hand.
, he didn’t dare to run away rashly.
What if you turn around and get stabbed to the core? No one will see you dead in this barren mountain cemetery.
"No." The man finally stiffened his neck and said, "My father is buried here. I miss him. Come and see him."
This reason is so ridiculous that even Xu Feiyang and Qi Min will not believe it. But Bai Yue said: "Leave him alone, let's go."
If they were fine now, it would be okay to mind their own business. But now that Jian Yu was still in Crow Valley and the situation was unknown, he had no time to take care of a thief in a mass grave.
When the man heard what Bai Yue said, he immediately felt relieved. She didn't even need to say a second word. He turned around and ran away. He turned around too fast and the things in his arms fell down. He immediately squatted down and picked them up randomly.
After a while, I didn’t have the patience to pick it up, so I got up and ran away again.
Under the moonlight, the thing the man left behind shone slightly red.
Bai Yue went over to pick it up and saw that it turned out to be a ruby ring.
"Can he dig out a ruby ring here?" Bai Yue immediately felt something was wrong and handed the thing to Xu Feiyang next to him: "Take a look."
Xu Feiyang took it and took a look: "This is a good thing. It costs fifty or sixty taels of silver at least. How can someone who can be buried with such expensive things be buried here?"
"It's indeed strange, but I can't control it now." Bai Yue put the wrench into his pocket: "I remember that person's appearance, let's talk about it later."
Passing through the mass graves is the entrance to Crow Valley. It is said to be an entrance, but it does not look like the entrance to a room. It does not have such an obvious door shape.
Xu Feiyang said: "I have heard people talk about Crow Valley before. The terrain of this valley is very strange. It is made up of several circular passages. If you are not careful, you will go off the road and return to the starting point. Moreover, the miasma in the valley is thick and miasmatic.
It’s poisonous, and it’s dark and you can’t see, so it’s no wonder the young master is trapped inside.”
Xie Pingsheng was quite embarrassed.
"Master Jian went into Crow Valley to chase the killer. Because I didn't know martial arts, I didn't follow him. I waited outside for a while and didn't see Master Jian come out, so I felt something was wrong."
Xie Pingsheng didn't know martial arts, so he couldn't go in and save people alone, but everyone was tolerant of him.
Xu Feiyang also said: "You have a conscience and know that you have to go back and get something to save my young master."
"That's what I said." Xie Pingsheng said calmly: "Although I don't know martial arts and it's not a chivalrous thing, I still understand how to repay kindness."
Entering the Crow Valley, sure enough, the roads on both sides gradually narrowed, the stone walls were towering, and it gradually became a narrow stone path that could only pass three people.
Xie Pingsheng and Xu Feiyang were walking in front, Bai Yue was walking in the middle, and Qi Min was behind. As they walked, Xu Feiyang was still carving symbols on the stone wall.
"It doesn't mean much." Bai Yue leaned over and looked at the shallow symbols on the wall: "The sight here is too poor. Even if they walk over, the chance of seeing the symbols is very small."
"What should we do?" Xu Feiyang had a headache thinking about it: "This valley is so big. We just keep going forward without any goal. When will we find it? Which fork in the road is wrong, we will go further and further.
It’s over.”
The four of them were all worried. They looked at each other and thought for a while. With the lack of information equipment, they could not think of a better way.
"I have no choice but to shout." Bai Yue said: "It is quiet and empty here, and the sound travels the farthest. I see that the cliffs on both sides are not high, so you can go up and shout."
Xu Feiyang and Qi Min looked confused: "How to shout?"
"Why do you need me to teach you how to shout?" Bai Yue said helplessly: "Just shout, Master, we have brought people to respond. If he hears this shout, he will have a rough idea to get closer. The killer will hear it and he will not know our strength.
After all, they will avoid us and we will be safe."
Theoretically the killer is gone, but what if?
Xu Feiyang thought for a while and expressed his understanding, then he jumped up to the top of the not high cliff beside him.
He put his hands to his mouth, used his inner strength, and shouted loudly: "Master, I have brought someone to pick you up. Where are you...where...where..."
In this silent night, in the silent valley, Xu Feiyang's voice was simply earth-shattering. The response hit the mountain wall one after another, amplifying and repeating the sound. Bai Yue covered his ears and thought, this sound comes from a rabbit sleeping in a hole with a radius of ten miles.
