The breath came quickly and stopped not far from everyone. It was well hidden in the darkness. If the opponent hadn't been a thousand-year-old evil, no one would have noticed anything was wrong.
Those who come are living people.
Not only was it a living person, but the breath was a bit familiar, and Yin Ren moved his nose slightly.
In the slightly fishy water vapor, he smelled the smell of tobacco and coffee mixed with Fu Xingchuan's body, as well as the cologne commonly used by Professor Li. As a powerful scientist, Professor Li's life response is no different from that of other animals, and he naturally has his own hidden aura.
Shi'an took their execution mission very seriously, and those who came to take care of it turned out to be top-level combatants. Since Fu Xingchuan did not approach immediately, it seemed that their execution mission would have to continue.
Do you want to see how they "deal with" the hot potato of Qi Xin
With such a margin, it seems that even Fu Xingchuan and the others didn't notice anything was wrong here. Yin Ren squeezed the dog that continued to pretend to be dead and was speechless for a while.
This thing refused to pay attention to him, and the battery capacity was only 43%, just like it was really using electricity.
Although the dog can't speak human language, its brain is not very good either. But this thing is always very accurate in predicting crises, especially those that are inexplicable.
I don’t know what kind of “strong man” they encountered this time. Yin Ren tried to feel the evil aura, but the evil aura underground was mixed, and the smells from various sources boiled into a pot of eight-treasure porridge. He did not find any obvious suspicious smell.
Unfortunately, in front of outsiders, he couldn't test it with his hair. The sinking will last for thousands of years. To be able to survive under Shi'an's nose for so long, there must be some hidden ability.
Time passed with the sound of water dripping, and the three of them quietly gathered around the fire. Sitting in the middle of the stone slab, he looked like he would squat here forever.
"Where on earth are you?"
"But my inference is not wrong." He murmured.
Lord Ghost King thought for a moment and took a deep breath: "Sister Xiaohe, we don't know where we are now. Let the rescuers use the GPS to find it, and we won't move where we are."
Could it be that Zhong Cheng really said he got the coordinates wrong
No... No, Zhong Cheng said that he is the kind of character who won't be able to finish his words when he is a little unsure. As the strongest night walker, he would not make such an outrageous mistake.
Beside him, the tips of Zhong Cheng's hair were hanging down. He held the rehydration solution in both hands, still immersed in the confusion and shock that "I might have made a mistake in my calculations."
The surrounding situation is unclear, and the nearby environment is relatively stable, so it's only the fools who are running around.
Zhong Cheng said, holding the rehydration solution he had mixed, he fell into confusion visible to the naked eye.
Moreover, Fu Dasha and Li Ersha were beside them, so Lu Xiaohe would definitely report this abnormality quickly. Yin Ren had no intention of competing with the unknown. He pulled out an inflatable cushion from his luggage and pumped it up.
"Strange." Lu Xiaohe's voice bounced in their ears, "There is something wrong with the nearby terrain map... Yin Ren, please re-describe the surrounding situation."
Yin Ren: "It's very dark deep underground. There are many stalagmites, and water just above the insteps has accumulated. We are resting on the stone platform now, and we have not noticed any abnormal evil spirits for the time being."
Lu Xiaohe was silent for a while.
Yin Ren had a rough guess, but he didn't like it very much.
"... But there is obviously no water there, and it is not a cave landscape." She said, "According to the topographic map, there is not even space underground at that location."
A few minutes passed.
"Zhong Cheng said, what do you think?"
Qi Xin glanced at the cushion, and for the first time there was a "speechless" emotion in his eyes.
Not far away, among the stalagmites.
Yin Ren dipped a strand of hair into the water. The water was not as cold as expected. He tasted the unique salty taste of muddy water, which was too real to be denied.
"I can't feel the evil spirit. The other scenes are similar to what Yin Ren saw."
"According to the coordinates reported by Zhong Cheng, this should be solid land?" Fu Xingchuan leaned on the stalagmites and clicked the coffee candy on his tongue. "Then the kid made a mistake, Lao Li, what do you think?"
Li Nian bent down and took a handful of water, letting the water slip from his fingers.
"Describe the evil thing you discovered this time." Li Nian said in a deep voice.
"Snake-swallowing is a Class A-B abnormal phenomenon. It mainly induces greed and jealousy in living people, causing disasters wherever it goes... Professor Li Da should remember these basic information better than me."
After Xiang Jiang reported the discovery of snake swallowing, Fu Xingchuan directly selected it as the "examination question" for the execution mission.
Swallowing snakes are rare and powerful evil creatures. Wherever this thing goes, chaos reigns among the living, followed closely by decay. That is to say, this swallowing snake was sealed in the mine, otherwise the situation in Gengsheng Town would be even worse.
Not to mention the human chaos caused, the snake-eating itself is really strong. If the two people from Group 9 could work together to escape the snake-swallowing team, then their strength would be at least Grade A, and maybe even comparable to the Emergency Management Department.
Can it induce greed in the human heart, or sink a carefully raised precious egg? There is no more appropriate question than this. Seeing that the perfect execution mission was disrupted, Fu Xingchuan was heartbroken.
"I do remember the basic information." Professor Li was noncommittal about this "perfect topic choice." "What I want to ask is, can swallowing snakes develop the ability to create environmental illusions?"
Fu Xingchuan laughed loudly: "How is that possible? It's very difficult for you scientific researchers. Didn't you make special calculations before? To really create the illusion of covering the environment, it must be a monster that is more than a thousand years old. To breed that kind of thing, you need to …”
Minister Fu's hearty smile stuck in his throat, and the coffee candy almost slipped into his trachea. "It needs a very huge space." Li Nian ignored his partner who was coughing and was dazed, "such as the underground of Mountain Town."
"Of course, I'm just raising a possibility." He added slowly.
Fu Xingchuan took his breath away and bit into pieces of candy. The smile on his face completely disappeared: "I didn't feel any special aura. Assuming what you said is true, the monster must have been inherited from the Sunken Society."
"Thousand-year-old monster, ancient stronghold. Old Li, you know what this means."
Professor Li sighed in the darkness.
"This represents the 'execution mission' of the ninth special team. It may be Shi'an... no, the most exaggerated one in the history of Huajisi." He said calmly, "Of course, it may just be Zhong Cheng who said he calculated the coordinates wrongly."
Fu Xingchuan let out a long sigh.
He scratched his slightly messy hair, and the next moment, the spell ignited with red light.
"Lu Xiaohe, inform Group Nine that we will join them immediately."
"Minister Fu?! That execution mission..."
"If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time." Fu Xingchuan raised his head in the light of the spell, "The situation is a bit complicated. There are innocent people over there, and we can't afford to gamble."
Yin Ren finished inflating the cushion and placed the soft elastic cushion on the stone slab. He collected himself for a while and prepared to carry out the salted fish to the end.
When Qi Xin wasn't paying attention, he separated a strand of hair, poked Zhong Cheng who was racking his brains to calculate the error, and affectionately showed off his plump cushions.
First, attract the tangled Zhong Cheng to come over and rest for a while, and then he will lean over without leaving any trace. According to Lord Ghost King's experience, being next to each other like this will definitely speed up this long boring time.
"Don't think about it, just come over and rest—"
Bang!
Yin Ren's mating cushion suddenly exploded.
A stalagmite penetrated the stone platform and rose up from the ground. It pierced the air cushion and the bullet grazed Yin Ren's temple. The black hair who poked Zhong Cheng said was stunned, and the latter jumped when the hair was poked like a steel needle.
In the wildly shaking firelight, the groundwater shook out strange waveforms. The stone platform cracked open, and more stalagmites protruded from the water droplets. Yin Ren's pupils shrank, and he suddenly extinguished the flame. The moment darkness fell, he stretched out one hand and grabbed Qi Xin. A few strands of hair were coiled at Zhong Chengshuo's feet, ready to go—
At this moment, another fire broke through the darkness.
In the firelight, Fu Xingchuan's red gown was dazzlingly bright. He rushed straight towards Qi Xin, hundreds of flames interweaving into a spherical shield, and the stalagmites he struck were instantly burned to powder. Yin Ren instantly retracted his hair and froze his movements.
Behind Fu Xingchuan, Li Nian was like a shadow. He looks thin, but his movements are quite powerful. He threw out two black wooden poles with both hands. Amid the strong evil aura, two pliable willow branches sprang out from the wooden poles, forming two green willow whips.
Willow branches unceremoniously wrapped around the waists of Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo, and swept them away to Li Nian's feet.
The stalagmites are still growing tirelessly. Fu Xingchuan clicked his tongue, knocked out a few floating charms, and then picked up the sluggish Qi Xin. Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo instantly transformed into human-shaped balloons and were dragged up and down in the air by Li Nian.
Behind them, stalagmites grew wildly from the top of the cave to the bottom of the water. They were like the sharp teeth of a ferocious beast, biting together fiercely, almost chewing the soles of Yin Ren's shoes.
The shoes of Fu Xingchuan and Li Nian were definitely high-end spiritual weapons - the two of them avoided the crazily growing stalagmites and tried their best to fly in the direction with the least evil energy, at a speed comparable to that of a small car. Under the illumination of the flames, the scenery on both sides quickly receded, and Yin Ren's face was almost deformed.
"Minister Fu, ahem, why are you here?" Yin Ren asked firmly as he groaned in the wind.
Minister Fu was busy hitting the back of his head: "I just happened to be passing by!"
Yin Ren: "..."
Yin Ren: "Minister Fu..."
"Don't ask questions yet!" Fu Xingchuan yelled - he threw back a spell after another, and the red flames accompanied by explosions made people's ears hurt.
"No."
Yin Ren pointed forward.
"There's a door!"
The water in the ground disappeared at some point, and there was no longer darkness ahead, but a green-white fire. Two will-o'-the-wisps floated on the old stone base, faintly illuminating a stone door.
It was a door with a very weak evil spirit.
Amidst the stalagmites pouring madly, they had no choice.
"Everything is ready!"
The fire around Fu Xingchuan was booming.
"Old Li, let's go in!"
