"The corpse seems to be over here!" Xia Houxiang shouted again at the right time, pointing with four fingers to the inner edge of the city wall.
The grim-faced Taoist priest quickly looked over. He didn't see the body, but saw a long trail of blood on the ground.
"Is his grandma still alive and running away? Everyone, hurry up and look around for any trace of this guy."
"Looking at the direction, we should be heading into the city. How about we go directly into the city to look for it?" He Siniang asked.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace thought for a moment after hearing this. This place is located on the central axis of the city. From now on, you can probably see the exit of the underwater secret passage. Then you can go back and forth without delaying anything, so he replied: "Okay, let's just turn down. The city head picked up the area and searched forward. As the saying goes, 'If you want to see a person alive, you will see a corpse before you die.' Pindao couldn't believe how far that guy could crawl out after so much blood!"
The grim-faced Taoist priest immediately started padlocking into the city after speaking.
The design of the inner side of this city wall is very weird. It is an outward-inclined reverse slope. Although the angle is not too big, the height of the city wall is there after all. If you compare the root of the wall directly with the top of the wall, the difference between the two is much, almost. There must be a distance of more than ten feet, which brings about a problem-it's okay when everyone enters the city, but once they encounter some danger below and need to evacuate quickly, it will be difficult to climb up, because two feet are basically enough Without relying on the wall, you can only climb up by pulling on the rope with your arms.
The grim-faced Taoist priest had some scruples about this, but it was definitely not his style to back off before taking action. He secretly comforted himself and said: There were two of the Li Gou thieves, and now one of them is probably broken, and only one bird can be left. What kind of wave is it making? Instead of being hesitant, it would be better to quickly chop him to death with a kitchen knife. With this thought in mind, he held the rope in his hand and climbed down the city wall decisively.
The location chosen by the grimace Taoist Priest was right next to the blood stain. He expected to see the man's body within ten steps from here, because in this world, it was absolutely impossible for someone to bleed all over the place and then fall three feet. The high city wall would still be alive, not even the dry-looking Li Gou and Xu Yibai, not even the fat prince Liu Xiuyou.
However, after reaching the ground, the situation once again jumped out of his expectation.
Just where the grim-faced Taoist priest landed, there was another pool of blood, and the amount of blood was quite large. It seemed to be more than the ones above.
In addition to the large amount of blood in this pool, obvious splash marks can also be seen in the outer circle, and some blood spots are even scattered ten feet away. From this point of view, the real owner of the blood has indeed fallen from the city wall. , the posture must be very embarrassing, otherwise the blood would not be thrown out.
Luo Laoqi followed closely behind and slid down. When he saw this, he was also surprised and said: "Another puddle?! Is this damn blood bubble turned into semen?"
"That's not the most evil thing. Pindao scanned around and didn't look at the body. That's why he has a big head."
Luo Laoqi licked his lips when he heard this, and said in confusion: "Li Gouzhi and Xu Yaodao are as thin as a hemp pole holding a ball on their head. They look like they will fall over if the wind blows. Who knew they still have such talent? The bleeding hasn’t stopped yet, even a pig with so much blood should die, right?”
"Dealing with them is like killing pigs, but it's not bad." The Taoist priest with a grimace shook his head: "I am getting more and more uneasy. How can I feel relieved without seeing the corpse? It just so happens that Siniang and the others are coming down soon, so let's split up quickly. Let’s search this area thoroughly before we start.”
After He Siniang and Xiahou Yun and Xiahou Xiang both landed, the Taoist priest with a grimace asked everyone to join forces in twos and twos and start looking for traces of the corpse along the left and right sides of the city wall.
The grimace Taoist priest chose to go with Xia Houyun and his grandson this time. After Xia Houyun was injured, his fighting ability was not as good as before. In addition, there was a stupid young man beside him, so he basically took over all the "old, weak, sick and disabled" , it’s hard to rest assured if you don’t follow.
There are no traces of dragging around the bloodstains under the city wall anymore. It seems as if the person disappeared out of thin air after falling to the ground. This is equivalent to completely cutting off the clues. If everyone wants to continue the search, they will have to use a plowing method. .
The grim-faced Taoist priest held up his torch and walked side by side with Xiahou Yun and Xiahou Xiang. Under the city wall, there was still an open space made of piles of stones. There was no obstruction within three to five feet. Only houses or other buildings could be seen deep in the city. The black shadows.
After walking along the city wall for a while, there was still no trace of the corpse. At this time, the grimace Taoist priest no longer wanted to continue searching, because he knew that if the man had the ability to walk so far, he would never go this way. It will definitely go towards the depths of the city.
Thinking of this grim-faced Taoist priest, he said to Xia Houyun: "This guy's whereabouts are a bit strange. I'm afraid I don't know where he died. I think we should not waste time on him. The right way is to continue on our way to find the Faqiu Golden Seal."
Xia Houyun nodded and said: "It's a good thing to be really dead." He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but he and the grim-faced Taoist were thinking about the same thing - this man didn't even see the body. Is he really dead?
The three grim-faced Taoist priests turned around to meet up with He Siniang and Luo Laoqi. The two people on the other side also had no success. They happened to be walking back, so the five of them met again near the blood stain. After a little discussion, He decided to put aside the matter of the corpse for the time being, find the exit of the secret passage first, and straighten out the layout of the city.
At this time, a red light suddenly began to flash over the city. Since everyone entered the deep valley, they had become somewhat accustomed to this phenomenon. This was caused by the volcano in the north starting to erupt again and the lava flowing out.
The hot magma tore a hole in the darkness in the deep valley. Everyone had no time to appreciate the shock caused by the underground volcanic eruption, and hurriedly observed the pattern of the city through the miserable red light.
The light that the magma can bring is limited. In the half-black and half-red room, everyone saw some strange "houses" starting to appear ten feet away from them.
These houses are all semi-circular structures. At first glance, they look like half an eggshell buckled on the ground. The reason why they are called "houses" is because everyone doesn't know what to call them at the moment. They can't. It would be more appropriate to say that they are the grave bags standing on the ground, right?
These houses are arranged in an orderly manner. At first glance, there are hundreds or even thousands of them. In addition, there is a taller building deep in the city. However, the valley is filled with smoke and dust at this time, and the visibility is not high, so even if the eyesight is As strong as a Taoist priest with a grimace, he could only see the arc-shaped outline of the building.
Volcanic eruptions come and go quickly. This volcano seems to be like this. The intensity is not high, it just erupts from time to time. As the volcano goes to sleep again, the valley falls into deep darkness again.
