The friends listened in stunned silence until Pan Fengtan stopped talking.
"Damn...it's so thrilling! What are those black things? Snakes?" Zhou Kai exclaimed.
"No, it's not a snake, it's black energy. It moves like a snake, but it's thick, like a human being. It's scary." Pan Fengtan said with lingering fear.
"Since it's just black energy, how can it swim like a snake? Can it still chase you?" Wan Yanfeng was puzzled.
"What is that stone platform?" Ying Kongxiu also looked at Pan Fengtan strangely.
"I don't know, I can't tell." Pan Fengtan shook his head.
Everyone was silent for a while, each thinking.
"Why don't you go take a look again?" Zhou Kai spoke up first.
"Okay, it's your turn this time." Ying Kongxiu said.
"Uh...I'm not going." Zhou Kai's head shook like a rattle.
"It's okay, you're lucky, you're not afraid." Ying Kongxiu said sarcastically.
"I think we can't go any further. We need to find a way. We people can't deal with what's down there." Pan Fengtan waved his hand to help Zhou Kai.
"That's right, without investigation, you have no right to speak. Let's discuss it first." Zhou Kai said with a smile.
The friends sat together and discussed, but in the end there was still no unified opinion.
"I always feel uncomfortable here." Wan Yanfeng muttered.
"Me too...it feels like danger will come at any time, and I feel unsure." Ying Kongxiu echoed.
"Huh? That's right!"
Xie Tianyun clapped his hands and said, "The machete I snatched is still there. That thing can go out here. How about... let's go out first? Come in after we figure it out?"
"Huh?" Sun Renyi stroked his mustache and thought, "Is that knife still in your hand?"
"Yes, it's too big, I hid it." Xie Tianyun said.
Sun Renyi thought for a moment and then nodded and said, "That's okay! Let's leave this place of right and wrong first."
Without further ado, everyone quietly followed Xie Tianyun to find the machete.
Sure enough, under a big tree, Xie Tianyun dug out the weapon.
The machete was more than two meters long. Although it was rusty, the blade was very bright.
Zhou Kai tried to pick it up and found it to be quite heavy, much heavier than a tree several meters tall.
"Can this thing open the protective circle with just a touch?" Zhou Kai said to himself suspiciously.
"When we came in, didn't the ghost touch and open the door with a knife?" Ying Kongxiu said irritably.
Everyone trotted cautiously and finally arrived at the protective circle.
Everyone looked at Zhou Kai and stood there motionless.
"What?" Zhou Kai asked depressedly.
"What you're holding, you go and get it done." Sun Renyi said.
Zhou Kai was speechless and could only walk forward slowly with the machete in his arms, looking back at his friends from time to time.
The machete touched lightly, and Zhou Kai quickly stepped back.
As a result, no door appeared, and the protective circle did not respond.
"Huh? What's going on?" Zhou Kai looked at it doubtfully.
He leaned forward again and touched it with the machete again, but the protective circle still didn't respond.
Zhou Kai frowned, picked up the machete, and struck down.
With a "boom", Zhou Kaizhen's wrist went numb, but the protective circle remained unchanged.
The friends gathered around and touched the invisible wall with their hands.
"What's going on? Why can't it be opened? Brother Yun, are you right?" Zhou Kai threw the machete on the ground.
"It must be true. This is how the giant ghost went out, and this is how I came in! Besides, isn't it the same for you and Sister Xiu?" Xie Tianyun said confidently.
"Then what happened? Isn't this still valid?" Zhou Kai said depressedly.
He picked up the machete again and just reached for it. With a "search" sound, an invisible door quietly opened, and a gust of wind blew in.
"Ah? Why does this work again? Is it because the power is almost out and the connection is bad?" Zhou Kai blinked and said.
"Go out first! It will be closed soon." Sun Renyi urged.
Zhou Kai shuddered and ran out first with a machete on his shoulder. Others filed in, not daring to pause.
Sun Renyi was at the back, and just as he retracted his foot, he saw a flash of light, and a small piece fell off the heel of his shoe, as if cut by a knife and burned by fire.
He broke into a cold sweat, touched his feet, and wiped the cold sweat from his head.
Everyone did not dare to stay outside for too long and ran towards the cave where Xu Han was.
After entering, I found that Xu Han was not here, and I didn't know where he went.
A few minutes later, Xu Han returned here.
Xu Han was startled when he saw that there were more than a dozen people in the cave. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing clearly that it was them.
"Old Xu, where have you been?" Zhang Xiaosheng asked.
"Hey, don't mention it, I'm scared to death! There are so many people coming." Xu Han wiped the sweat on his forehead.
"A lot of people? What do you mean?" Sun Renyi asked.
"I was taking a break outside the cave at that time, and suddenly I saw something moving far away, and it was completely dark. I leaned over and found a lot of people there, maybe one or two hundred people." Xu Han said.
Everyone was stunned by what he said. Sun Renyi quickly asked: "So many people? Did you read that correctly?"
"Then what are you seeing wrong? It's such a big area, almost all in black clothes, no faces visible! I don't know what they are doing! Why, they are not with you?" Xu Han asked doubtfully.
Now everyone felt that the situation had become more and more serious.
"What have you been doing for so long?" Xu Han asked.
"Uh... you may not be able to accept or understand many things. But you just have to believe that we are not bad people." Sun Renyi looked at him and said seriously.
Xu Han blinked his eyes and thought about the meaning of this sentence. After a moment, he nodded and said, "Maybe it's because I'm old. There are indeed many things that I can't understand. I know you are not bad people, and I don't want to get involved in too many things. I just want to avenge the people of Xujiacun!"
"Mr. Xu, don't worry, this revenge will definitely be avenged! I promise." Ying Kongxiu said with tears in his eyes.
"Old Xu, those people...please tell me more specifically." Ye Gufeng said.
"Well... almost all of them were dressed in black, and their faces were covered so that they couldn't be seen. They didn't bring anything else with them, and their hands were empty. They seemed to have entered the village. I didn't see anything else." Xu Han thought while thinking Said while talking.
"Were you not discovered?" Zhang Xiaosheng asked.
"No, I'm hiding in the grass. I'm far away from them. It's impossible to see me." Xu Han waved his hand.
Guys, look at me and I'll look at you.
Zhou Kai said: "It can't be...the Black Blood Alliance, right? They are all dressed in black, their faces are covered, and there is such a big battle here."
Sun Renyi frowned and said while stroking his mustache: "I don't know yet, but... it's definitely not good, maybe it's a huge conspiracy!"
"With so many people coming at the same time, what's the conspiracy?" Wang Tianxiang thought.
"For so many people from the Black Blood Alliance to come here at the same time, there must be something extremely important in the village." Wan Yanfeng also said.
Sun Renyi said seriously: "Based on Lao Xu's description, what happened in Xujiacun, and what we saw, we can now summarize it. They discovered this place for some reason, and then set up a huge secret environment. Then go back Looking for someone, a large group of people are here now. All the focus is on one point, that huge stone platform!"
