Pseudo master, she just wants to live

In the quiet dark cave, a strange light black mist floats, and the gloomy stone forest becomes more and more intricate like a labyrinth.

Fang Yao was disconnecting the hemp rope, the joints were very smooth, obviously it was broken by something sharp, and the flashing green image appeared in her mind.

"Look at this."

Fan Chen, who was walking around, suddenly stood on tiptoe, and tapped the ground in front of him with his black buckskin boots that were stained with mud.

Fang Yao looked over, it was... an extremely hard to see bloodstain, the color was dark, and it almost merged with the wet and dark ground.

This is pustule blood!

Fan Chen took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on the sword casually, "There is also in front, it should be injured and ran over."

"Ah."

Fang Yao made up her mind, with this clue, no matter how complicated the stone forest is, it will be much easier to go.

Everyone held the hemp rope that had been reconnected, and they didn't dare to leave too far apart. You were the ones sticking to me, and I was holding you, forming a group, carefully following the bloodstains dripping on the ground from the pustule monster, towards the deep stone forest. walk around.

The strange sound came from there.

Along the way, no one dared to speak.

Everyone held their breath, pricked up their ears, and even walked on tiptoes, for fear of making some noise that would attract the monsters in the dark.

The mask light on Fang Yao's face kept flickering, and the grotesque stalactites on both sides followed suit.

She turned her head and looked back, the golden flame on the pustule was getting smaller and smaller, and it was almost impossible to see clearly after going around a few turns.

Gouwa's father still has a dozen people who have not appeared for a long time, and there is no sound of whistle. Fang Yao is a little worried, and keeps marking more frequently along the way.

The smell of blood in the air became more and more intense, and there was also an indescribable stench.

There were more and more dark bloodstains on the ground, until later, dark, stinky blood floated in the small puddles in the low-lying areas.

The further you go, the stalactites gradually decrease, the stone forest gradually becomes thinner, and the dark cave becomes more open, with the faint sound of water flowing.

After touching a stick of incense, they bypassed a cluster of stalactites again, and a group of lights appeared in front of them!
From a distance, it was actually a cave!
Someone's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help shouting: "Isn't there another exit?!"

"It would be great if that's the case!"

The crowd couldn't help becoming restless, and someone was already pushing to the front with a torch.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man who was a little older in the grade suddenly said, "No, it's only Yin's time at this time, how can there be such a light..."

These words were like icy water in the icy moon, poured on everyone's heads, and the crowd who had just become agitated were instantly silent.

Fang Yao's nostrils fluttered slightly, and the strong smell of blood... came from there.

"Let's go."

Fan Chen took the sword with his right hand and took the lead to move forward.

Fang Yao clenched the Shangfang sword in her hand and followed, and A Wu, Li Dazhu and the others hurriedly chased after her.

The stone cave gate was less than a hundred meters away, and the entrance of the cave was emitting a faint white light. As the distance got closer, the sound of running water became clearer, and the weird sound came intermittently.

There were several new cracks near the entrance of the cave, as well as gravel and blood stains scattered on the ground, which made everyone frightened.

Some people who had squeezed to the front shrank and hid behind.

"I'll go first."

Fan Chen clenched his sword tightly, stepped forward with his long legs, and walked in first.

Soon, his slender back stood on the spot, as if petrified.

Fang Yao frowned, and rushed in with her sword in hand. A Wu and other members of the Li clan panicked and hurried to catch up.

Everyone froze for a moment, looking at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

Fang Yao's eyes widened slightly, and her rosy lips parted under the mask.

In a sense, this end of the cave is indeed another exit!
This is a sinkhole tiankeng with a depth of hundreds of meters, and it is also inside the main peak of Tianqi Mountain!
The diameter of the tiankeng is relatively small, and the inside is very open, like a big-bellied gourd, with a thick layer of miasma floating in the sky.

The temperature inside the pit is slightly higher than outside, and clusters of cold-resistant pine trees and vines are scattered on the surrounding steep cliffs. There are several rock cracks in the lower part, and trickling water flows out of the cracks, forming a pool at the bottom of the cave.

It turns out that this is one of the sources of the underground river, and the sound of the drizzling water came from here.

The water in the pool is crystal clear, and the surface of the water is covered with a layer of light mist that emits a glowing white light, which seems to be rising mist.

However, the other half of this dreamlike fairyland is like hell!
The corpses of plague monsters were lying all over the shore, and the thick blue stone moss on the ground was dyed discolored. When you stepped on it, it was soft and sticky, and dark red blood soaked around the sunken soles.

"This one was also taken out!"

A Wu pointed to the plague monster closest to the entrance of the cave, covered his mouth and whispered.

The plague monster's skin was black and shiny, its muscles and bones mutated and grew excessively, and its whole body swelled several times. Except for a pair of eyes, it completely lost its human appearance.

It was lying quietly on the ground, the fear before death remained in its godless pupils, and there was a large pool of dark to black blood stains under its body, its clothes had already been pulled down by its swollen body, and its left ribs could be seen at a glance bloody hole.

Going forward, there is another plague demon who died in the same way...

The extremely strong stench in the air and the eyes full of broken arms and limbs made many officials who followed have seen this situation before, and their stomachs were overwhelmed, and they all retched aside!
Even the members of the Li clan who had been wandering with Fang Yao for more than half a year couldn't help turning pale.

"Hey, what is it that makes them like this..."

Although the plague monsters were frightening, but seeing them all have their hearts taken out and died tragically in one place, everyone couldn't help but feel their scalps go numb.

When people face the corpses of the same kind or large animals, they always have an inexplicable sense of crisis.

Panic struck everyone.

"No, don't you say that these monsters were made by the national teacher, the national teacher, she, could she have already..."

Someone asked in a trembling voice.

Fang Yao thought of the flashing green shadow again, and couldn't help but turned to look at Fan Chen beside him. The latter had a handsome face, his lips were pursed, and he raised his sword and walked forward.

She turned her head to look at the entrance of the cave. When they came, the dark passage was chaotic, and the stone forest in the distance blocked her view, so she couldn't see anything clearly.

Fang Yao vaguely felt that someone was watching her inside.

This feeling that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light is disgusting.

The sinkhole is full of dangers, and it may even be a trap, but I have to go in.

She gritted her teeth secretly, clenched the Shangfang sword in her hand, and said: "The national teacher may not be in trouble, a few people are here to guard the entrance of the cave, and call if there is any movement."

Just after she finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a black brocade and cotton gown hurriedly said, "Okay, vomit...then, this officer will take people to guard outside vomit... let's go outside."

Fang Yao didn't know this person very well, but she only remembered that he was indeed a court official, and that she had been bullied by the national teacher when she was on the altar.

Seeing this man rolling his eyes with retching, leaning against his servant, he couldn't stand still, with vomit still remaining at the corner of his mouth, she frowned slightly, didn't speak, just pursed her lips and nodded.

"This, this vomit, there is a strange light inside, vomit...Then these torches..."

Seeing her nodding, the man quickly pointed to the torch in Ah Wu's hands, the meaning was obvious.

The dark cave entrance really needed a torch, Fang Yao waved her hand, then turned and walked in.

The official was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered his servants and some soldiers, a total of twenty people, to take most of the torches outside the cave.

Ah Wu murmured with some displeasure: "Most of these torches belong to us."

"Don't worry, don't we still have those things?"

Fang Yao replied softly, Ah Wu suddenly remembered something, and his eyes lit up.

A group of people walked in cautiously.

"Come quickly."

Standing next to a corpse, Fan Chen frowned. Seeing Fang Yao and the others coming, he pointed to his feet, "Look at this."

In fact, Fang Yao had already seen it. The corpse lying in front of him was not a plague demon, but a person!

She walked over quickly. This man was wearing the cloth armor of a Daxiang soldier, and there was no blood hole in front of his body, but his hair was disheveled, covering most of his face.

"Ah, this is that person, the one who arrested Brother Yang!"

Ah Wu's eyes widened suddenly, and he pointed at the man's right hand, "I can see clearly, the man holding Brother Yang's ankle has six fingers, and that's him!"

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on the man's right hand.

The man has two thumbs on his right hand.

Fang Yao and Fan Chen glanced at each other, the latter immediately reached out and waved the hair off the man's face, both of them were shocked, this man had obviously died!

The next moment, Fang Yao also squatted down and pulled the man's head to the side.

"hiss……"

All the people gathered in front of them gasped in unison!
The back of this person's head seemed to be split open by some blunt instrument, leaving only half of it completely deformed!
"really……"

Fang Yao stood up immediately, "Hurry up, everyone, quickly count how many plague monsters and people there are here."
