Chapter 703: Ghost-faced Bat, Bottomless Pit

This claw was small and black, with extremely sharp black nails at the fingertips. After it came out of the belly of the corpse, it grabbed fiercely, and the black fingertips instantly pierced deeply into the flesh of the corpse.

Then, I saw the claw exert force violently, and a hairy black little head drilled out of the belly of the corpse.

When I saw this hairy little head, my heart skipped a beat, and I almost subconsciously grabbed the Miao Dao at my waist.

I saw that this furry little head was not big, but it was extremely strange, especially the pair of dark eyes that radiated a strange luster in the dark. No matter how I looked at it, it exuded a sense of evil.

"Is this a bat? But how did it get into the belly of the corpse? Could it be that it was controlling the corpse just now?"

I have also seen bats. I occasionally encounter them in the caves behind the mountain in our village. Hu Zi and I once mistook this thing for a crow and caught one. We wanted to go home and raise it like a bird, but after being scolded by Hu Zi's grandmother, we let the bat go.

However, compared with the bats in the back hill of our village, this bat obviously looks more evil, especially when it crawled out of the belly of the corpse and shook off the blood on its body, I immediately saw that this bat actually had a ghost face!

"Is this... the legendary ghost-faced bat?"

According to legend, ghost-faced bats do not belong to the human world, but are creatures living in the underworld. They feed on ghosts. Adult ghost-faced bats can even affect the thoughts of ghosts and be controlled by them.

However, this thing should live in the underworld, how could it run here?

At this time, a "flickering" sound was heard, and another ghost-faced bat drilled out of the belly of the corpse, but these two bats seemed not to be all.

I saw the belly and chest of the corpse squirming, and then five or six ghost-faced bats came out at the same time.

They were all covered in blood, and after coming out, they flapped their wings violently, throwing away their flesh and blood.

Then, I heard a strange "squeak" coming from their mouths, and as the strange cry came out, I saw the human head that I kicked away before actually "gurgled" rolling over.

With a muffled "puff", a black claw stretched out from the broken neck, and then, a furry, palm-sized ghost-faced bat came out of the human head with a strange cry.

Seven or eight ghost-faced bats gathered together at this moment, and then turned their heads and stared at me with their evil eyes, as if they were thinking whether I could eat them.

"These creatures, could it be that they... regard me as prey?"

Bats live in groups, as can be seen from the caves on the stone wall. Moreover, these creatures are very vengeful and have a strong desire for revenge. If I have a conflict with these bats, it is very likely that more ghost-faced bats will be attracted.

If thousands of bats attack me, then even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't get out of here.

I swallowed my saliva with a "gulp", and then slowly retreated very slowly.

However, as I slowly retreated, the heads of these ghost-faced bats also turned, and their dark eyes were full of hostility, as if they would pounce on me at any time.

But then, I suddenly found something wrong.

"They... don't seem to be staring at me, but at the knife in my hand?"

I frowned, and then slowly put the Miao Dao on my waist under the gaze of the ghost-faced bats, and then spoke, whispering: "I'm just passing by here, and I don't have any bad intentions."

The IQ of ghost-faced bats is very high, and according to legend, these little creatures understand ghost language.

At this moment, when I finished speaking, the bats seemed to really understand what I said. They squeaked and then all flapped their wings, flew to the stone wall in a swarm, and went into a cave.

"Huh!"

I breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, and walked forward again. I

was afraid of disturbing the ghost-faced bats in the cave, so I walked more carefully this time.

As I went deeper and deeper, I suddenly found that the dark cave was much brighter. I squinted my eyes and observed carefully, and then I found that the light source was actually the soft thing under my feet.

I looked down and suddenly felt disgusted.

Because the faint glow was actually bat shit.

Bat shit, also known as night-shining sand, is actually not dirty, and can be used as medicine. It is an extremely valuable Chinese herbal medicine.

But after all, it is excreted from the body of a bat, and there is a thick layer of it piled up on the ground. It would be a lie to say that I am not disgusted.

Fortunately, the night-shining sand is not smelly, but just a little sour. Otherwise, with so much night-shining sand piled on the ground, I might have suffocated a long time ago.

I wrinkled my nose, then stood up and walked forward slowly again.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard a frightened cry.

"What the hell is that!"

As the low shout fell, a 'ding-dong' sound came out. It felt like someone was chopping the stone wall with a knife.

"Is it the evil sky?"

The sound was not far away from me, but the evil sky did not seem to be in the same fork in the road as me. His voice obviously came from another fork in the road, along those densely packed caves.

And the 'ding-dong' sound obviously meant that he also found the ghost-faced bat and had a conflict with that ghost thing.

When I thought of this, I grinned and sneered, thinking, this evil sky really started playing whack-a-mole.

The evil sky was attacked by the ghost-faced bats, which was undoubtedly great news for me. I took a deep breath, and then without stopping, I walked forward quickly with one hand on the Miao Dao at my waist.

When a person is in a dark and secluded environment, it is easy to lose the sense of time. I don’t know how long I walked forward. Just when I felt a little tired, suddenly, I felt a strong cold wind blowing on my face. I squinted my eyes subconsciously, but the next moment, I suddenly felt that there was nothing under my feet. It turned out that I missed a step and fell down.

I was startled and grabbed the stone wall with my backhand, so I kept my balance and didn’t fall down.

I swallowed my saliva, squinted my eyes and looked forward, and my heart skipped a beat.

What appeared in front of me was a dark deep pit, which was like a bottomless abyss. Standing on a high place, I couldn't see the bottom at a glance.

And the place where I was at the moment was the end of this fork in the road. If I took another step forward, I would be at the bottomless abyss.

"Damn, what a hell of a place!" I couldn't help but curse inwardly. If I hadn't reacted quickly just now, I'm afraid I would have really fallen down and there would be no recovery.

I took a deep breath, then stuck my head out to observe.

The cold wind blew in my face, making my clothes rustle. I squinted my eyes and turned to observe. Then I saw countless holes all around. These holes were densely packed all over the rock wall, like an ant nest, which looked extremely spectacular.

I looked down again and saw that the deep pit was gray and filled with extremely dense yin and ghost energy. As the yin energy rolled, I suddenly heard the crisp sound of iron chains colliding.

My heart was shocked and my face was shocked.

"There is something down here. The extremely domineering ghost energy... seems to be emanating from down here!"
