Chapter 397 Field Mouse
With Cheng Feng's reminder, everyone learned that the location of these corpses was mysterious, a special formation.
So no one touched them; they all chose to rest in the open space.
Although it was called an open space, it was actually full of uneven black stones underfoot, so they could only choose relatively flat places to rest.
Cheng Feng and his group surrounded the small temple, while the heads on the temple eaves remained in their signature tilted-head pose.
However, it doesn't look so scary now.
"The situation here is somewhat similar to the Zhang Family Ancient Building. Old Zhang, why did your Zhang family gather the corpses of your clansmen together?"
It's also to prevent the influence of the divine mandate on you!
Hei Xiazi was one of the few people who entered Zhang Family Ancient Building and escaped unscathed.
At that time, he saw countless coffins in the Zhang family and took out the Black Gold Ancient Sword from the innermost coffin of the clan leader.
"I don't know."
Zhang Qiling shook his head and uttered three words.
He was also trying to recall things, but there were many pieces of information and clues he couldn't remember.
Although he had kept a backup plan all these years, he eventually lost some of his memories.
"If you have the chance, you should still go and explore the Zhang Family Ancient Building. There are many things hidden there."
Hei Xiazi looked at Cheng Feng, his meaning almost entirely implied.
In fact, Cheng Feng was also very interested in this family that had continued from ancient times to the present.
The timing of this tomb was perfect; before he grew stronger, it was too dangerous for Cheng Feng.
It's easy to get crushed inside.
As he grew older, Cheng Feng lost interest in further investigation, since no one knew more about the secrets of immortality than he did.
There's no point in exploring Zhangjia Ancient Building then.
"There's nothing good there. The Zhang family had already emptied their coffers when they disbanded."
Zhang Haixing retorted, but there was one more thing she didn't mention: not only had their own family members been thoroughly searched,
The Wang family also packed up and took a lot of good stuff with them.
"Little Xingzi, you and Old Zhang are old acquaintances. If that's the case, you're not young anymore, are you?"
Black Bear had a smug smile on his face, and his words went straight to the heart of the matter.
Zhang Haixing's eyes blazed with anger, and she spoke with a forced smile:
"Hehe, I can't compare to you old codger. At least when I was born, people were already cutting off pig tails."
Hei Xiazi smiled and didn't seem angry at Zhang Haixing's sarcasm.
Some people are aware of his background.
Hei Xiazi's original surname was Qi, but this Qi has no relation to Qi Tiezui of the Nine Gates.
He came from a noble Manchu family, but his entire family died later. What happened to this wealthy young man is unknown.
After entering the bronze gate, he gained the ability to live forever, but this immortality had a side effect: the eyes hidden behind sunglasses.
Zhang Haixing clearly knew something about Hei Xiazi, which is why she used a pig's tail to retaliate against him.
"This little girl has quite a temper, but I won't stoop to her level."
Zhang Haixing rolled her eyes, inwardly cursing Hei Xiazi as a despicable person.
Just as Cheng Feng and the others were chatting, a light shone from a distant cliff.
Upon seeing the unfamiliar light source, Cheng Feng immediately realized what was happening and turned to look in that direction.
Then I saw a familiar-looking young man sitting on the edge of the cliff, his legs dangling in the air and gently swaying.
He held a slender bamboo pole in his hand, with a leather lantern at the top, emitting a dim yellow light.
"He was the one who brought those rice dumplings here back then, and now he's reappeared. Could this be another corpse dog that's been given a divine gift?"
Chen Wenjin stood up, reached for his gun, and spoke.
Cheng Feng also stood up.
"Calling him a corpse dog is not wrong, except that he is a mutated corpse dog."
Cheng Feng ignored the distance of several hundred meters and took in every detail of the young man's life.
His thin clothing could not conceal the patch of brown skin peeking out from his chest.
"Old Cheng, do you recognize who he is?"
After several attempts to identify him, Chen Wenjin found no familiar features in the young man; he was a complete stranger.
Cheng Feng did not answer, but looked at the cracks in the black mountains on both sides.
There are many crevices in the mountains here, but they are all very narrow, making it impossible for an adult to squeeze through them.
However, if it's the size of a doll, it should be able to move around inside without any problems.
"I still have some flares here. Should we fire one over there and see?"
Aning has a lot of good stuff on her; this is the equipment that Jude Kao's entire team has gathered, so she can use it without any hesitation.
Cheng Feng shook his head and declined A Ning's offer.
There will be many more uses for flares later, and he hasn't detected any signs of monster activity in his field of vision yet.
So it's better to save this flare.
"What's the purpose of this person sitting there with a lamp lit? Is he trying to guide us?"
Huo Ling pondered for a long time before finally giving up on her wild ideas.
"No, it's guiding itself."
After saying that, Cheng Feng suddenly pulled out his pistol and emptied the magazine by shooting directly at a crack.
A series of gunshots startled everyone awake, and they all gathered around the small noodle shop without hesitation.
“There was something there just now, I saw some brown skin.”
Hei Xiazi, holding a pistol, pushed up his sunglasses and spoke.
"What on earth could move within such a narrow crevice?"
Wu Xie, who had just approached, asked in confusion.
Cheng Feng glanced at Wu Xie, who was still in a naive state, and chuckled as he spoke:
"We'll know once we catch him."
"Uncle Cheng, we can't even get through such a narrow gap."
Wu Xie is a very polite child; he calls him "Uncle" so naturally.
Cheng Feng was always tolerant of polite children, and said:
"When I was a child, field mice would infest the grain fields, and the adults would fill the mouse burrows with water."
Once the field mice have choked on water, they will crawl out of their burrows on their own.
After saying that, a glint flashed in Cheng Feng's eyes, and then more than a dozen boundless karmic flames flashing with blue light emerged from the void.
These seemingly divine yet demonic methods deeply shocked Wu Xie and the other two.
Then, the dozen or so blue insects flew into the crevices of the cliff.
"The cracks inside are quite complex; these dozen or so don't seem to be enough."
Cheng Feng was slightly surprised. The cracks in this black dragon vein were interconnected, like a deliberately dug passage.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Feng summoned another blue galaxy.
Countless karmic flames converged into three nebulae, then broke into smaller parts and rushed into the gap.
"The water has already been poured in, and we're just waiting for the field mice to crawl out of their holes."
With that, Cheng Feng walked back to the small temple and sat down next to the heads of people to wait patiently.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Feng felt something and looked up at where the young man was.
Then a small monster darted out from the cliff and slipped smoothly into the young man's clothes.
Soon, the young man didn't even bother with the lantern and jumped off the cliff.
Fortunately, he was very skilled and used his strength to help himself several times, eventually reaching the bottom safely.
"The mouse is out. Let's go, let's pretend to be the old cat and catch this cunning mouse."
