Chapter 298 Blood Coffin
But no matter what happened, it is a conclusive fact that Huahu successfully completed the mission.
Although Wang Kaixuan focused part of his attention on the cliff, more attention was placed on Chen Ziyan beside him, so he also noticed his changes and couldn't help but ask Said: "Mr. Chen, did you discover something?"
To be honest, Wang Kaixuan feels a little guilty now, feeling that he has completely become a drag this time.
Because not only did he not help, but he was also suspected of causing trouble.
Chen Ziyan didn't know Wang Kaixuan's complicated mood at this time, and had no intention to pay attention to it. Hearing this, he just pointed to the cliff above and said, "Fat man, look at that."
"Huh?" Wang Kaixuan immediately concentrated. He looked over with attention, but found nothing. He asked in confusion: "Mr. Chen, there is nothing."
"That's right, there is nothing." Chen Ziyan said with a smile.
"It's okay to have nothing?" Wang Kaixuan repeated it subconsciously, and then suddenly realized: "Yes, it's okay to have nothing. Look at my brain, why didn't I think of this? ”
After Chen Ziyan’s prompting, Wang Kaixuan also realized that if Huahu’s actions really went wrong and alerted the eagle owls on the cliff in advance, then the nearby sky would probably be filled with The eagle owl fluttering its wings is the right one, how could it be as clean as it is now.
What does this mean?
This shows that even if the task is not completed, nothing will happen to the Huahu who goes up.
"He's coming down." At this moment, Wang Kaixuan heard Chen Ziyan say this.
This prevented him from thinking too much and quickly looked towards the cliff again.
With the help of the moonlight, Wang Kaixuan soon saw a black spot swooping down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This made Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but murmur in his heart, is Huahu really still a human being?
He felt that the scene before him was somewhat beyond his understanding. It was hard to imagine that this was the speed that a person could achieve.
Fortunately, this was going down the mountain. If he had gone up the mountain at this speed, Wang Kaixuan's expression would have collapsed.
Chen Ziyan saw Wang Kaixuan's surprised look, thought for a while and said: "In fact, both Huahu and Wushuang have undergone special training, so they can show more or less performance on the terrain that suits their performance. Show some abilities that are far beyond ordinary people."
He did not say this casually, but did so intentionally.
Chen Ziyan had long thought about saying this more often, so that others could adapt to the abnormalities displayed by his puppets through subtle influence.
After all, there is still a long period of contact in the future, and the number of his puppet armors will not stop. After other people accept this setting, they will automatically substitute it if they encounter the same situation in the future. What you say.
Maybe you won’t notice anything once or twice, but after it happens more times and it leaves a fixed impression deep in your heart, you will become accustomed to it in the future.
What's more, what they have to face next is even more unbelievable. Put together with things that can break the worldview, the little specialness revealed by the puppet armor is really nothing.
Especially the supernatural creatures we will encounter in the future will have even more extreme abilities. Those are abilities that are truly difficult to explain.
While Chen Ziyan was thinking about this, the swooping Huahu had already arrived in front of them at an unimaginable speed.
And even though he was so fast, he stopped easily after landing.
When Huahu stood up from lying on the ground, the first thing Chen Ziyan saw was the heavy blood stain on his front.
At this moment, Huahu's entire chest was almost soaked in blood, and some traces of blood could even be seen.
Wang Kaixuan naturally saw this situation, and his expression immediately changed: "What's going on, look where it's hurt?"
Based on his experience, he knew that if all the blood belonged to Huahu, the wound would definitely be fatal.
However, Chen Ziyan didn't pay much attention to it, because he had already seen that although XZ Nai Hua Hu looked like a bloody gourd, his clothes were not damaged at all. It was obvious that the blood had another source.
Stop Wang Kaixuan who wanted to check Huahu's wounds, Chen Ziyan said: "Fat man, look carefully, the blood is not Huahu's."
"It's true." Wang Kaixuan was actually concerned and confused, and he only reacted after being reminded like this.
"Come on, we passed by a small pool just now. Let's go there to wash up first." After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan said.
But we can't let Huahu go back like this. Let's not mention the image for now. Just walking in the jungle with such a strong smell of blood may lead to some monsters and ghosts.
And Chen Ziyan could more or less guess where the blood stains came from. It was probably Hua Hu who changed the method of killing the eagle owl to eating.
But this is nothing, and the eagle owl can be of benefit to the flower fox, so it can be regarded as making the best use of it.
Wang Kaixuan also understood this and immediately nodded in agreement: "That's true, we have to wash it first."
Anyway, their clothes are waterproof. If they just rinse the outside, they will not even dry it. No need to go through this procedure.
After arriving at a nearby waterhole to wash off the blood stains on their bodies, the three of them took a short rest and returned to the temporary camp without too much delay.
Thanks to Huahu's early action, when Chen Ziyan and the others returned to the camp, the sky had not completely cleared up.
The primeval jungle on the eve of dawn is no longer as dead as night, but there is still not much breath of life.
The moment Chen Ziyan and the others appeared in the sight of everyone in the camp.
It happened that a ray of morning glow pierced the horizon and fell on this strange jungle.
And as this ray of light fell, the entire jungle seemed to come alive. The chirping of various insects and birds sounded from time to time, as if all the monsters and monsters were hiding.
Hu Bayi, who had been paying attention to the direction in which Chen Ziyan and the others were leaving, finally felt relieved after seeing them all coming back.
In fact, not long after Chen Ziyan and others set off, he had already remembered that Wang Kaixuan was afraid of heights, so he was always worried that unnecessary changes would occur.
"Yo! What is this? It smells so good!"
Wang Kaixuan smelled a refreshing aroma before he even entered the camp. After scanning around, He fixed his sight on the marching pot on the fire.
Although he didn't exert much effort this time, the little inventory in his stomach had been consumed long ago, and now he was in urgent need of replenishing energy.
"Just make some soup." Ding Sitian, who was controlling the heat next to her, said with a smile.
When she was looking for medicine, she also brought back some wild vegetables, edible mushrooms and the like that she found along the way, so she made such a pot of soup.
“That’s good.” Wang Kaixuan’s Adam’s apple couldn’t help but move, saying that it was great.
As soon as Hu Ba saw that this guy was okay, he ignored him for the time being. He looked at Chen Ziyan and asked, "Mr. Chen, is this trip going well?" In fact, through Wang Kaixuan's performance , Hu Bayi already has some knowledge, but if you want to know the exact answer, it’s better to ask.
Chen Ziyan chuckled and nodded: "It went very smoothly. Even if there are still some fish that slipped through the net, it is no longer a problem."
He did not talk about the ups and downs of the operation. Anyway, everything is over. , saying that other than selling them a little bit, they would have no other effect.
As the actual leader of the team, it is not suitable for him to do such things as misfortune.
By the time a few people had filled their bellies, the sky was completely bright.
Hu Bayi shook off the ashes of his cigarette, looked at Chen Ziyan and asked, "Master Chen, should we go there now, or wait until noon?"
Through last night's encounter, although he didn't say anything, , but in my heart I already regarded the couple’s banyan tree as something unclean.
So subconsciously, I think there are two best time periods to deal with. One is the early morning, when you can bring the power of purple energy from the east, and the other is noon, when The sun's rays are the brightest.
It can be said that these two time periods are the ones that are the most harmful to demons and monsters.
After hearing this, Chen Ziyan thought for a moment and said: "We didn't have a good rest last night, and we are not in a hurry. Why don't we go there at noon? One afternoon is enough for us to do things. ”
Originally, he planned to go there now, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea. Although several people seemed to be in good spirits, he knew in his heart that in fact, no one had a good rest last night, so he had better rest a little before talking.
After all, what we have to face next is that the high priest who presented the king was already not easy to deal with according to the original plot. If there are any unexpected changes, wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with? .
Considering this possibility, Chen Ziyan thought it would be better to make more preparations.
"That's okay, just rest a little longer." Hu Bayi had no objection.
Although the two time periods are similar to him, if he really wanted to make a comparison, he would prefer to go there at noon.
In fact, it was said to be a good rest, but in reality it was only a few hours.
At eleven o'clock at noon, several people got out of their sleeping bags one after another.
Because they didn't move much in the morning, they didn't go to eat anything. After a brief wash, they went straight to the couple's banyan tree with their friends.
“There is no sound now.”
After arriving at the banyan tree where the couple was, Wang Kaixuan immediately circled the tree twice.
But coincidentally, just as he said these words, the weird knocking sound sounded again.
The moment he heard the sound, Wang Kaixuan, who was still a little shy at first, was like a cat with exploded hair. His strong body suddenly retreated and ran two meters away in the blink of an eye.
“Damn it, I’m just here waiting for your fat man.” A somewhat frightened Wang Kaixuan looked at the tree not far away and cursed angrily.
After Hu Bayi saw that Wang Kaixuan was fine, he frowned and looked at the couple in front of the banyan tree, looked at Chen Ziyan and asked: "Master Chen, what do you think is going on?"
He Deep down in my heart, I had already determined that there was something strange in the tree itself or in the tree, but I didn’t expect that there could still be monsters in broad daylight.
According to what he knew, in the current situation, either his prediction was wrong or the evil spirit here was stronger than he thought.
Chen Ziyan was also looking at the tree. After hearing his question, he said: "This is actually a good thing. Without this sound, we would not be able to follow the sound and find the source."< br>
He actually didn't care much about this, because he knew exactly what the sound was about.
Hu Bayi thought for a while and nodded: "That's true."
"The sound came from inside the tree." Shirley Yang had been listening attentively and said at this time made his own discovery.
"Tree body?"
Hearing his words, everyone looked at the thick tree body.
But when they got closer to observe, they heard a series of 'clicking' sounds, and the couple's banyan tree in front of them split into two halves.
The two halves of the split tree body are at 45°, like a triggered mechanism.
This sudden scene left several people stunned. Only Chen Ziyan, who had expected it, calmed down.
Several people looked up and looked inside the cracked tree, feeling even more shocked. After a while, Wang Kaixuan said in surprise: "What... thing is this?"
But when he saw clearly what was inside the tree, , the guy's tone suddenly changed: "Huh? It looks like it's quite valuable, we may have really made it this time!"
The others didn't respond, they all looked at the things in the tree with burning eyes.
I saw a dark red object exposed from the cracked tree body, which was in the shape of a regular rectangle, with the top two sides being ground into rounded corners.
At this moment, the sun happens to shine on it, giving it a faint glow and looking extremely dazzling.
Under the sunlight, they could see more clearly. They saw that the thing inside the tree was not dark red, but a translucent transparent material container. The material looked like jade or crystal, and inside it was It is a crimson liquid, so it gives people a dark red feeling.
After seeing this clearly, even Hu Bayi couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "What is this?"
Wang Kaixuan, as the most enthusiastic treasure hunter in the team, He immediately wanted to step forward and check it out: "This thing is probably worth a lot of money, let the fat man go and have a good look at it."
But before he could walk over, he was grabbed by Hu Bayi .
"What are you observing, please be honest with me."
Although the fat man was a free-spirited guy, he listened to Hu Bayi's words, so despite his reluctance, he still took back his steps.
But it's one thing to stop moving. Wang Kaixuan's mouth didn't stop at all, staring at the things in the tree and asking again and again: "Does this look like a coffin? Is it jade or crystal?" Why is it such a weird color? It looks like that chicken blood stone."
Everyone else was looking at this thing intently and paid no attention to Wang Kaixuan. Only Chen Ziyan said after recalling it. It should be a coffin made of Tibetan Heaven Jade. "Tibetan Heaven Jade?" Hu Bayi suddenly looked at Chen Ziyan and asked, "How could it be near Yunnan?" Isn’t Burmese jade more common?”
Chen Ziyan shook his head: “I don’t know. Maybe this Tibetan Heaven Jade has some special effects, but I prefer that this jade has nothing special, it just happens. That’s all.”
