Qing Yueqiu looked at Zuo Zhicheng in surprise. She thought to herself, "Is that Dazzling Gold? But it seems to be even brighter. Does Gui Quan also know some simple Daoist materials? "
Under the illumination of the Magnesium Light, the scene above them was clearly displayed to everyone.
On the river, which was as bright as day, there was no one on the boat more than ten meters behind them.
At the same time, the originally pitch-black cave above them was now as bright as day.
There was a crack in the mountain that was so high that even Zuo Zhicheng could not see the end of it. What was even more shocking was that under the illumination of the Magnesium Light, the walls of the mountain were covered with vines of different lengths. Under the vines, there were countless corpses and skeletons.
There were dried corpses, skeletons, animals, and humans among the corpses. Some of the heads of the corpses were already half-skeletons. They looked at the people on the boat with empty eyes, and they felt a chill in their hearts.
Tang Xianghui mumbled, "Why are there so many corpses?"
"Look at the costumes of the corpses. There are all kinds of people, and they don't seem to be from the same era."
At that moment, Zuo Zhicheng pointed at a direction on the mountain wall and said, "Look there!"
Everyone looked in the direction that Zuo Zhicheng pointed at and felt a chill in their hearts. They saw a pale face staring at them blankly. The cheekbones of the face were prominent, the eye sockets were sunken, and the expression was full of hatred. It did not look like a human, and it made everyone's scalp tingle.
While everyone was still in shock, the illusion created by Zuo Zhicheng had already been destroyed. The magnesium light had disappeared, and the pale figure had also disappeared in a flash.
Tang Xianghui and the others looked at each other. They had assassinated, hidden, and fought before. But when they saw such an obviously inhuman creature with their own eyes, they still felt cold sweat running down their backs.
Zuo Zhicheng did not have such a reaction. He looked in the direction of the figure with his left eye, but with his infrared vision, he could not see any shadow at all. There was no heat reaction.
'A cold-blooded animal? Or is it something else? "Zuo Zhicheng frowned. Then, he switched his left eye to night vision mode. Although he couldn't see as clearly as under the magnesium light, night vision mode was more practical than infrared vision in this situation.
'I was too careless. Looks like I've been too used to infrared vision recently.'
Ever since he acquired the infrared vision, Zuo Zhicheng had been accustomed to using it to detect the presence of other people. Because of this, he had neglected those creatures that did not emit heat and rarely used the night vision mode.
"What the hell is that?" Qing Yueqiu couldn't help but frown.
"Could it be a zombie?" Tang Xianghui's face looked a little pale. "Could it be that Ah Wei and the others were attacked by this thing?"
"But how did they capture them right under our noses?"
"Ah Wei said that he saw a woman in green. Could it be that damned thing?"
Seeing that everyone was a little surprised and panicked, Zuo Zhicheng said coldly, "Zombies, ghosts, whatever it is, it doesn't matter. After all, it's still a type of animal. It has its weaknesses and can be killed. "
As for the disappearance of Liu Changding and the others, it doesn't matter whether these animals are responsible for it or not. If they are, how did they do it without anyone noticing? "
"Why?" Tang Xianghui asked.
"Don't you see so many bodies on the boat?" Zuo Zhicheng picked up the boat's oar and started to move it. With superhuman strength and skill, the boat's speed doubled in an instant. It sped along the boat's path.
"Don't tell me you guys think that this is the only thing on the boat?"
"What!" A terrifying possibility appeared in Qing Yueqiu and the others' minds.
Not long after, rustling sounds could be heard from above everyone's heads.
"They're coming," Zuo Zhicheng said as he increased the speed of the boat.
"What are they?" Tang Xianghui exclaimed.
"They're the damned things you saw just now." Zuo Zhicheng glanced back. With his night vision, he could see hundreds of ghostly shadows crawling down from the cliffs and rushing toward the small boat.
Tangyuan turned back and pulled out the long sword at his waist. "We can't just leave Ah Wei and the others behind. Kill them!"
"Don't be rash. There are at least a few hundred of them." Zuo Zhicheng said, "And we only have this boat under our feet. It doesn't have a buffer. If the boat is destroyed, it'll be even more troublesome."
Hearing Zuo Zhicheng's words, Tangyuan said angrily, "But Ah Wei and the others …"
"They might not be dead. The corpses we saw just now were all old corpses. There were no new ones. The place where we stored the corpses shouldn't be where they stored their food. It might have been moved or abandoned. "
"And once we're dead, there's no hope."
"If you want to fight, go to the stone platform in front of us. Wait until you have a foothold."
It was not that Tang Yuan and the others did not understand this kind of thing, but when they thought about how they were going to give up on their comrades like this, they began to hesitate. In the end, it was Qing Yueqiu who ordered, "Follow Gui Quan's instructions. Let's row the boat together."
Immediately, everyone picked up the extra oars and rowed towards the depths of the river.
"But why don't we row back? Isn't it too risky to go deeper under these circumstances? "Tang Xianghui suddenly asked," Maybe this ruin is the nest of these damned things. "
"It's too far. We're already two-thirds of the way down. It's too long to go out." Zuo Zhicheng looked up at the monsters that were descending along the cliff walls and moving quickly with the vines. "They are very fast. They're catching up. "
"Hurry up!
"Hurry up!"
No one asked Zuo Zhicheng why he could see the cliff in the dark. Everyone's ears were listening to the sound of the monsters getting closer and closer. It was worth it to keep rowing with all their might. Once they thought of the various corpses wrapped in the vines, they didn't want to end up like that.
However, the river was too narrow, and the Shadow Corps were not good paddlers. After a few bumps, the monsters on the cliff had caught up.
A vine hung around Tang Xianghui's neck. It wanted to hook her neck and pull her over, but she reacted quickly. She pulled out her long sword and cut off the vine. However, a green shadow had already rushed towards her while screaming.
Although the monster's appearance was a little creepy, Tang Xianghui was a seasoned warrior. She cleared her mind and swung her sword. A silver light flashed, and the blade was deeply embedded in the monster's neck.
"What!" Tang Xianghui wanted to cut off the monster's head directly. As a warrior who had the Innate Qi and extraordinary physical strength, this was not difficult. However, she didn't expect the monster's skin to be as hard as a layer of old bark. It was so hard that the blade was stuck inside.
The struggling force from the blade was also very strong. Tang Xianghui couldn't pull her sword out in the midst of the monster's screams. Two more monsters jumped in her direction from the sky.
