Chapter 856 Mysterious Underground Space
This change came too suddenly. Without any preparation, I lost my balance. Amid the screams of Xiao Qi and I, my body fell rapidly. In
an instant, I felt my eyes go dark. It felt like I fell into an abyss. The green vegetation in front of me disappeared, replaced by endless darkness.
At this time, I also reacted. I immediately shook my wings, and my unbalanced body immediately suspended in the air.
"Huh..." I breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Xiao Qi who was sitting on my neck and holding my hair tightly with both hands, and asked: "How are you, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." What surprised me was that Xiao Qi didn't look panicked at all at this time. On the contrary, there was a hint of excitement in her eyes. I even saw a glimmer of light in her eyes.
"Wow, it's so exciting, just like riding a roller coaster." Xiao Qi said excitedly while holding my hair.
"..." I twitched my mouth when I heard that, shook my head helplessly, and then said to Xiao Qi, "Hey, can you get off me? I feel uncomfortable with you riding on my neck."
Xiao Qi had always been sitting on my shoulders before, but at the moment of falling, Xiao Qi grabbed my hair very flexibly, then raised her legs and sat directly on my neck. I couldn't throw her off in a panic just now, and even subconsciously grabbed her legs, but the danger was over at this moment. This posture, like riding a horse, was a little embarrassing.
It also made me feel deeply humiliated.
"After all, I am the descendant of a lineage of ghost-walkers, the future living ghost messenger. Being ridden like a horse... isn't that a bit too much..."
"What? Do you dislike me?" Xiao Qi pouted and snorted, "I will ride, I will ride. Not only will I ride now, but I will also ride in front of your fiancée in the future. Humph, what can you do to me? Come and hit me? Lululu..." "
..." I shook my head helplessly, wondering why Xiao Qi has changed so much recently. Although Xiao Qi used to be a little rebellious, he at least listened to me, but now I feel like I can't control him.
I ignored Xiao Qi, but took a deep breath and squinted at the scene around me.
The sun shone through the vegetation above my head. I looked up and saw that the rock wall above my head was covered with dense vines. The dense branches and leaves of the vines completely covered the hole on the ground. If I hadn't stepped on empty air, I'm afraid this place would never see the light of day again. Under
the sun, I saw that I was suspended in the air at this time, at least dozens of meters away from the ground, and all around me was an endless empty cave. The area here was very large, and it was pitch black at a glance, and I couldn't see the end.
"What exactly is this place? Why is the space so big? And... why is the vitality here so strong? What is the connection between this place and the corpse field? Why are both this place marked as a corpse field in the map that my senior sister gave me and the map that Liang Qing gave me? Could this be a corpse field?"
I thought to myself that something was wrong. If this was a corpse field, then it should be filled with corpses and the evil energy should be extremely heavy. But the vitality here is so strong, which is completely the opposite of a corpse field.
Just as I was looking around with a frown on my face, Xiao Qi, who was riding on my neck, suddenly said, "Hey, I seem to sense a corpse aura in front, but it's very faint, almost covered by the strong vitality... If I wasn't extremely sensitive to Qi, I wouldn't be able to find it."
Xiao Qi pouted here, with a look of suspicion on his face, "Strange, how can there be such a strong vitality here? The most important thing is, this vitality... actually gives me a very familiar feeling, but why do I feel familiar with this vitality?"
At this moment, Xiao Qi's eyes were full of confusion. Not only her, but also me, were the same.
But I knew that this was not the time to think about these things. I immediately suppressed my doubts and asked, "Where did you sense the corpse's aura?"
Xiao Qi came back to his senses after hearing this, and immediately pointed in a direction and said, "There!"
I squinted and looked at the direction of Xiao Qi's finger, but except for a ray of sunlight shining through my head, the rest of the place was almost pitch black. Even I couldn't see anything clearly.
"Sit still." After I said that, I flapped my wings and quickly flew into the darkness.
The space here is so large that I even suspected that the underground of this entire valley should have been hollowed out.
After flying forward for nearly five minutes, Xiao Qi who was riding on me immediately said: "I feel it again, the smell of corpse is coming from around here!"
I stopped when I heard that, squinted my eyes and looked down, and then I saw that both on the surrounding rock walls and on the ground, there were dense vines and mosses growing. The most important thing is that compared to where I fell, the vitality here is obviously more intense, and it seems that the deeper you go into this underground space, the more intense the vitality is.
"What on earth is ahead that can emit such a strong vitality? And why don't I feel the corpse smell that Xiao Qi mentioned? The most important thing is, there is nothing here!"
I looked at Xiao Qi with suspicion. Xiao Qi twitched his nose and said, "Go a little further. I feel that the source of the corpse smell is just ahead."
"Okay."
This time I was not very fast, and during the flight, all my five senses were opened. I
continued to fly forward for nearly 20 minutes, and suddenly my figure stopped, with a look of astonishment on my face.
Even Xiao Qi exclaimed: "Oh my God, what is this? How can there be a forest here? I, I am not seeing things!"
Xiao Qi was right, but she was a little inaccurate, because what appeared in front of us was not a forest, but an ecological park with lush vegetation.
Yes, that's right, it was an ecological park.
About ten meters in front of us, a lush green vine and weeds suddenly appeared. These weeds and vines were so dense that they blocked our way.
Whether it was vines or weeds, they were all incredibly tall. Perhaps the rich vitality had caused them to mutate. The weeds that could only grow to a height of more than one person had now grown to a height of more than ten meters, and their tops almost reached the rock wall above. As for the vines, it was impossible to count how long they were. They crawled up from the ground, like strange snakes, standing upright in the dark underground space.
Their tops spread all the way to the rock wall above, but that was not the end. They spread densely along the rock wall to the surroundings, and there was no end in sight at a glance.
I was stunned by this scene. I wondered what on earth was this place. Why were there so many plants here? And why were these plants so lush and tall?
What on earth was going on here?
