Chapter 471 This Place is Dangerous
Before, when Huang Jiu and I came to this fork in the road, I had stayed here for a short time.
The reason was that I sensed a familiar breath in the fork on the far left.
At that time, I even thought that this breath was most likely left by my master, or my biological parents.
But now, when I came to this fork again, I could no longer sense the familiar breath.
I couldn't help but frown, wondering what was going on. Could it be that too much time had passed and the breath had dissipated?
Or did someone deliberately erase the breath, with the purpose of not wanting me to notice it?
"Xiao Qi's breath...seems to be coming from this fork in the road."
I have long wanted to find out what's going on at this fork in the road. Xiao Qi's breath also came from there, which further solidified my idea.
I held the Soul-Slaying Knife tightly, took a deep breath, and walked straight to the fork in the road.
However, just as I walked to the fork in the road and was about to step into it, I suddenly felt a shock all over my body, and even my right foot that was about to step into the fork in the road subconsciously retracted.
"This breath..." I swallowed my saliva with a 'gulp'.
Just as I was about to step into the fork in the road, I suddenly felt a breath that made me very nervous.
It felt as if there was something terrifying waiting for me at the fork in the road!
Moreover, the fork was pitch black, and I couldn't see my hand in front of me. But I had an illusion that there was a pair of eyes in the darkness, quietly staring at me.
This feeling made me feel like I was on edge, and goose bumps appeared all over my body. The dense white sweat hairs suddenly covered my forehead.
The next moment, I suddenly heard a "bang" sound coming from the fork, as if something was dragging a wire towards me.
My heart skipped a beat and I took a step back almost subconsciously.
"There is something in here!" I squinted my eyes, trying to see the scene inside the fork, but it was too dark inside. Even for me, the visual range was only two or three meters. Looking further, it was pitch black. There was nothing to see except darkness.
"What the hell is in here? Is there... a monster imprisoned in it?"
I secretly guessed in my heart, and then raised my ears and listened carefully.
The sound of the iron chain was still ringing, but it was much softer than before. The sound just now was not only sudden, but also very loud. It felt like a monster imprisoned by the iron chain was suddenly awakened and suddenly stood up.
But the sound now was more like that monster, tiptoeing and slowly approaching me with small steps.
I was startled by my own thoughts and couldn't help but curse in my heart, thinking that as long as Xiao Qi was in there, I would have to go in even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead. With this thought in mind, I took
a deep breath, calmed myself, and slowly groped towards the fork.
This time, I didn't run as fast as before, but walked carefully, as if walking on thin ice. While walking, I stared at the darkness around me with my eyes wide open, fearing that some monster would suddenly rush out of the darkness.
After walking forward for about a few dozen meters, I suddenly stopped, and then almost as a conditioned reflex, I leaned to the side of my body, and my back pressed tightly against the rock wall.
Because just now, I seemed to hear a wheezing sound coming from the darkness ahead.
The breathing sound was very long and deep. Even though I was far away, I could hear it clearly.
"Such a heavy breathing sound, how big must it be? What is in this cave?"
The breathing sound was still rhythmic. Fortunately, the sound did not approach me. I took a deep breath and then walked forward carefully again.
However, not long after I walked out, a feeling of panic suddenly filled my heart.
At that moment, I felt as if I had been electrified. The hairs on my body suddenly exploded. Every cell in my body seemed to be shaking and shouting.
This was my body's instinctive warning when I was in danger. This reaction was reminding me that there was someone behind me. Run, it's dangerous!
At that moment, my adrenaline surged, and even my pupils suddenly dilated. Then, I turned around without thinking.
However, just as I was about to turn around and hadn't turned around completely, a pair of big hairy hands suddenly came from deep behind me and covered my mouth and nose! 7K妏敩
"Who!" I mumbled indistinctly, then instinctively squatted down, grabbed the hairy arm, and then used a very standard shoulder throw to throw the person behind me forward.
This series of reactions of mine can be said to be the most instinctive reaction of my body in a crisis. My brain didn't even think much, and I naturally made this series of actions.
But the next second, I was stunned, and my eyes were filled with deep astonishment.
With my ability, even a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds can be thrown out easily.
But at this moment, no matter how hard I exerted, the person behind me was actually standing still, as if his feet had taken root and were already rooted in the ground.
I was furious and pressed my right hand on the Soul-Slaying Knife. Then I heard a "swish" sound and the Soul-Slaying Knife was unsheathed.
At the moment the Soul-Slaying Knife was unsheathed, a flash of cold light instantly illuminated the surroundings, and I suddenly broke free from the hairy palm, turned around quickly, and chopped forward fiercely with an unstoppable momentum.
However, at the moment the Soul-Slaying Knife was chopped out, my expression froze, and even the Soul-Slaying Knife was stuck in mid-air.
"It's you!"
I widened my eyes, looking shocked.
Because the person who appeared in front of me, I actually knew him, no, it shouldn't be said that I knew him, I can only say that I had met him once.
I saw that he was extremely tall, about two meters tall, and his whole body was covered with white fur. This man was not the wild man who had fought the ghost soldiers before, so who else could he be?
But why did he appear here?
And why did he just cover my mouth from behind?
I swallowed with a "gulp", then took a step back with a vigilant look, stared at him and asked: "What are you going to do?"
To my surprise, the savage didn't seem to mean to hurt me. He just made a gesture to keep quiet and kept pointing his hand behind me, and then pointed in the direction I came from. It felt like he was reminding me something. After seeing
this scene, I immediately frowned.
"Could it be that he is reminding me that this place is dangerous and asked me to leave quickly?"
