Although Zhou An was not afraid of the Tang family, Zhou An still had to consider the feelings of Zhou Guanggun and the old lady, so the three of them left Shangxi County in a hurry.
In fact, the reason why Zhou An is not afraid of the Tang family is because Shangxi County is similar to the ancient county. There were countless counties like this in the Yuan Dynasty. The highest-level experts in such counties were the Qianshan Gang leader and the ancient county.
The county magistrate is on the same level, and Zhou An is no longer afraid of this level, so he doesn't care much about the top power in Shangxi County, the Tang family, Zhou An.
In Zhou'an, not long after Zhou Guanggun and the old lady left, the Tang family found the body outside Yizhuang. Immediately, the Tang family sealed off the county town, conducted a large-scale search in the county town, and killed many innocent people. This continued
For three days, they didn't catch him.
At this time, Zhou An, Zhou Guanggun, and the old lady had arrived in a forest and were walking deep inside.
This forest is called the Forest of Lost Souls. It is located at the junction of Shangxi County and Huaqi County. It is very famous nearby. Of course, it is famous for its fierceness. Why is it called the Forest of Lost Souls? Because as long as the people who enter it are not
Death is like losing the soul and becoming crazy. The forest of lost souls has become a forbidden place, and no one dares to enter it.
Especially people who live nearby, as long as they are five kilometers away from the Forest of Lost Souls, they feel scared and dare not set foot.
The old lady said on the way here that the reason why the Forest of Lost Souls is so scary is because there is a kind of grass growing in it. The name of this grass is Ecstasy Grass. The Ecstasy Grass emits a fragrance that makes people sane.
If you are intoxicated, it is okay to smell a little, and it will not cause much harm. If you smell too much, your soul will be damaged at least, and you will die at worst.
The Forest of Lost Souls is full of this kind of Lost Soul Grass, so its effectiveness is also greatly increased. As long as you enter the Forest of Lost Souls, you can rarely get out of the Forest of Lost Souls without any trouble.
Although the Forest of Lost Souls is very scary, the old lady also has a way to deal with it. She has the antidote for the Ecstasy. It is a potion made from the Qingshen Flower. It has the effect of refreshing the mind and can restrain the Ecstasy.
Grass.
Before entering the Forest of Lost Souls, the three of them had already taken the potion, but it only lasted for fifteen days. Once the fifteen days passed, they had to take it again.
The old lady led the way like an old horse knowing the way. They walked smoothly and encountered no danger along the way.
Zhou An had heard that there were many wild beasts in the Forest of Lost Souls, but except for a few small non-aggressive animals, they didn't see any others.
It was obvious that the old lady was very familiar with the Forest of Lost Souls.
But what the three of them didn't know was that there was a person following them far behind. This person looked like a savage. He was wearing nothing except a grass skirt made of ecstasy grass. This person dexterously moved from
Jumping from one tree to another without making any sound.
"How far is it from Corpse Lake?" Zhou An asked.
"We'll be there in just over an hour's walk," the old lady said.
"By the way, I haven't asked you what profession the papermakers have in the dark world, and why they are so weird." Zhou An asked the old lady and Zhou Guangguan.
"Papermakers are one of the top professions in our dark world. They are many times better than our profession of corpse removal. They have existed in ancient times. I heard that they originated from providing burial places for the deceased.
They are made of paper figurines, and all their attacks are made of paper figurines. People in this profession are very cunning and difficult to kill," the old lady said.
"So are there many people in the profession of paper maker? What is the level of the paper maker I met?" Zhou An asked.
"No one knows the number of papermakers in this profession. They are mysterious and the world only fears them. As for the level of the papermaker you are fighting with, in the first four levels of the dark world, it is Tiandi Xuanhuang. I guess he is
Otherwise, he would not have such strength at the early stage of Xuan level." The old lady said.
Amidst Zhou An's various problems, after a long journey, they finally came to a large lake.
This lake is the corpse lake they are looking for.
The lake in front of us is not big, only tens of kilometers in size. Looking over it, we can see the other side of the lake. This lake is not blue, but gray, with gray fish swimming in it. Even Zhou An
We also saw several large and fat crocodiles by the lake, crawling on the shore and basking in the sun.
These crocodiles are not ordinary crocodiles. Not only are they all gray, but their claws and eyes are also gray. The most important thing is that each has a human hand under the eye, which is a baby's hand. The nails on the hands are very long.
Very sharp.
From these strange crocodiles, Zhou An could tell that the fish in the lake were probably not simple either.
What makes Zhou An embarrassed is that he is a landlubber and cannot handle water. Even if he has the cultivation of a warrior, if he enters the lake, he will probably be buried in it.
Then Zhou An said it. After the old lady heard it, she decided to go into the water with Zhou Guangguan. After all, she had come here many times to pick up corpses, so she was familiar with the water conditions here. Zhou An, who was not good at water, stayed on guard and protected on the shore.
The bodies they brought up.
With two plops, the old lady and Zhou Guangguan put on their diving clothes and plunged into the lake.
After a while, they fished out two corpses, a male corpse and a female corpse. The two corpses still maintained their original appearance, not at all like the bloated appearance of corpses after being soaked in water. It was just that the clothes they wore
Her clothes were soaked and could only barely cover her body.
After putting the body on the shore, the old lady and Zhou Guangguan dived into the water and fished out the body again.
After going back and forth five times, they retrieved ten corpses in total, but Zhou An discovered a problem. There were only eight corpses in front of him. Where had the other two corpses gone? Could they have been stolen? At this time, Zhou An found out
They had a keen eye and always paid attention to the corpses they fished out to see how they were thrown away.
When they resurfaced and took the body to the shore, Zhou An saw a figure grabbing a body and running away into the tree. Zhou An didn't have time to talk to old lady Zhou Guangguan and hurriedly picked up Piao Yanmi.
He followed closely and chased after him.
The person in front seemed to be very familiar with the Forest of Lost Souls, and he was very fast, but Zhou An was not slow and chased him closely, but the speed of the two was about the same. Zhou An just chased, but couldn't catch up, but Zhou An
I have clearly seen the appearance of the person in front of me. He is a wild man wearing a grass skirt.
It’s really unbelievable how there are still wild people in the Forest of Lost Souls. How did he survive the poison of the Lost Soul Grass? What did he eat for a living?
