Taoist Zijin broke Nangong Manyun's fantasy and narrated in a calm tone: "But one thing is certain, the female corpse is very familiar with this place, and must have lived for a long time. But it stopped here and confronted something. Maybe there is an extremely dangerous existence ahead of us, otherwise the corpse would not confront us here with a roar!"
Old man Jiang Hai frowned and said, "Do you know what kind of monster would make a cry for help? Even if it has only been recorded in myths and legends, we know some signs and can take precautions."
Taoist Zi Jin opened his mouth, but shook his head.
"Do you know something? Tell me!" The bug noticed his expression and immediately asked.
Zhang Fan also looked at him curiously: "Do you really know something?"
Taoist Zijin nodded and said, "Master, when I was on the top of a mountain in the north, I met a pair of young Taoists! They came here to seek the way to practice, and at that time they presented me with a strange book! It talked about the sound of a ghost."
"What do you mean?" Old Master Jiang Hai was a little curious.
Nangong Manyunque said: "I have also heard similar legends. People will turn into ghosts after death, but ghosts will also turn into something else after death! Ghosts will be afraid of that kind of thing, just like people are afraid of ghosts!"
Taoist Zijin nodded gently: "This kind of thing often has extraordinary powers, and unlike ghosts, it cannot manifest! Its behavior is no different from that of a human, but it has long lost its emotions and has become a killing machine! It can even imitate everything a human does, and even live in someone's place."
After hearing what Taoist Zi Jin said, Jiang Hai felt a chill on his back!
Zhang Fan was thoughtful: "Ghosts don't live here. Even dead ghosts may not appear outside the underworld!"
Taoist Zijin frowned: "Master, there are fake three realms here."
Taoist Zi Jin's words awakened Jiang Hai and also made Zhang Fan suddenly realize!
"No wonder, no wonder there is weirdness everywhere... It turns out this is a rebellious world!" Old man Jiang Hai murmured to himself.
"Now that we know the true identity of that thing, shouldn't we find a way to deal with it?"
Taoist Zijin said: "This kind of monster usually doesn't transform into a human form, but most likely into a snake form. Because snakes like the Yin, and have the ability to nourish the Yin spirits, this kind of thing usually transforms into a poisonous tongue! It is extremely poisonous... If you get hurt in the slightest, you will definitely die."
Taoist Zi Jin obviously saw a lot of secrets from that book!
Zhang Fan and Jiang Hai looked at each other!
"You mean, those snakes learned Mr. Fei's tone? Or... they are just like that!" Old Master Jiang Hai asked.
Taoist Zijin shook his head slightly: "I don't know, I can't be sure whether these snakes heard Mr. Fei's call for help! But, these things usually learn the first scream they hear when they are resurrected! It seems... even if they didn't learn Mr. Fei's tone, they must have something to do with Mr. Fei!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, because the information revealed by Taoist Zi Jin was so confusing that they didn't know how to accept it, let alone how to judge whether it was true or false!
"According to the theory of the fake three realms, the place we are in now should be hell, right? It's really weird... Could it be that the snake has some self-abuse tendency? Why does it live in such a weird place?"
Brother Chongzi shuddered and said with a hint of complaint: "Should we retreat now, at least leave this weird place! Maybe we can find another way out."
"Impossible! If we retreat now, we will be trapped in the magic circle! Moreover, the female corpse appeared several times but did not hurt us at all. It was more like she was leading us along a path. I think that although this place looks dangerous, perhaps this ancient city can be considered a safe place."
Old Man Jiang Hai expressed his opinion. Taoist Zi Jin originally wanted to refute him, but after thinking about it, he became determined and remained silent.
After all, compared to the snake man they encountered before near the strange wall, the path they are currently taking is actually safe!
"Master, what do you think?"
Taoist Zi Jin looked at Zhang Fan!
Zhang Fan nodded deeply after hearing this: "Mr. Jiang Hai's words make sense. We are now in the center of the entire ancient city. We are still inside the city wall. This may really be the safest place."
"How strange! If this is true, then what does this corpse want to do? What is its origin... Why does it keep giving us hints again and again!"
The thing that Mr. Jiang Hai is most confused about is this!
However, it was not important to discuss this at this time, because with everyone's means, there was no way to catch the female corpse! Moreover, the thing seemed to only roar, and it was probably a pipe dream to want to learn anything from it.
"Everyone, if we stay here, we will be poisoned to death sooner or later! So we have to continue exploring! Since the female corpse led us here, then this road may be the right one! I want to give it a try, and I will go ahead."
Old man Jiang Hai said something to everyone with a serious expression, then he drew his knife and walked into the depths of the white fog.
Zhang Fan followed closely behind and said calmly, "Mr. Jiang Hai, I heard the sound of water around us before, so we have to be careful too! In case something attacks us in the water."
The people behind him nodded after hearing his words! This time, they all learned their lesson. No one fell behind. They followed closely! They didn't dare to separate too far to prevent being ambushed.
Especially Brother Chongzi, who never left the sight of Taoist Zi Jin. He remembered very clearly that just when everyone found the entrance, his two most trusted men were killed by that strange one-eyed dragon in the palace above their heads.
The situation was complicated at the time and no one had thought about how that thing was hidden. Now that Worm thought about it carefully, he realized that when they entered the palace, they had actually found some traces.
Therefore, especially in such thick fog, if they are slightly distracted and attacked by someone, their teammates may not even be able to find the shadow of the missing person.
Everyone's pace slowed down a lot. After walking for about a minute, they were only a few dozen meters away. The sound of water gradually became louder. Brother Chongzi threw out a few cold fireworks. When he threw the third one, he suddenly heard a "swish" sound. It was because he used too much force and threw the cold firework into the water.
