"What happened?"
Zhao Ziliang repeatedly confirmed that Shen Lin in front of him had indeed returned to normal, then slowly put away the gold box and spoke with some fear.
All this is too unbelievable. Not long after they entered the mountain, they somehow escaped death. If I had told myself a few days ago, I probably wouldn't have believed it.
"There is a resurrecting ghost in this mountain. We found out that there is something wrong with the fog here." Shen Lin endured the sting in his body and told it as briefly as possible.
A pair of eyes swept around, Shen Lin's eyes looked fearful.
Perhaps tens or hundreds of years ago, there were no problems in this barren mountain, but ever since that weird swamp came here and integrated with the environment, trouble began to appear.
The power of the evil ghost is combined with the thick fog of the mountain, regardless of each other. People who enter the mountain will be affected by the thick fog unconsciously, walk into the mire and eventually be swallowed up, turning into nourishment for the growth of the evil ghost.
Shen Lin was glad that they arrived in time. The evil ghost had not yet fully recovered and was still in the growth stage. This gave Shen Lin an opportunity to take advantage of it. Although they paid some price, they were finally out of danger.
If they encounter a fully grown ghost, considering that ghost's ability to absorb the power of ghosts to a certain extent, all of them will be trapped in this mountain.
"Then what should we do? Withdraw?" Zhao Ziliang was startled. He didn't succeed before the attack. He didn't want to die first. Retreating was the safest way at present.
"It's too late." Shen Lin sneered, his cold eyes fixed on something around him.
There were several corpses covered in mud, somewhat rotten, and the smell of corpses mixed with the pungent smell of mud lingered around.
The clothes under the mud are obviously the decoration of this era. Judging from the size and style, it should be a short-sleeved shirt.
The corpse with a higher degree of decay made Shen Lin look at it a few more times. Unlike the other corpses, the clothes on this corpse were bulky. They were obviously winter clothes such as down jackets. After being watered with sludge, they looked even more bulky. swelling.
The fifth-level ghost realm unfolded in a hurry. Shen Lin almost hurriedly searched for the traces of Dai Heming and Zhao Ziliang while fighting against the evil ghosts. He barely found them and brought them over as if they were swallowing a jujube.
In this case, there was no time to identify them carefully. Shen Lin brought these corpses together because of their similarities.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Ziliang followed Shen Lin's eyes and looked over. When he saw the corpses, his eyes were dazed for several times, as if he had thought of something, and his face was extremely gloomy.
"It's a forbidden barren mountain. It takes some effort for those of us to get in. Why do the corpses of ordinary people appear here?" Shen Lin asked with a cold face.
"Fierce ghosts are ever-changing. It's very likely that ordinary people who triggered the rules fell into this barren mountain. It's not surprising." Zhao Ziliang said.
Shen Lin shook his head. This is just the most ideal explanation. Reality is never so ideal.
I had come into contact with that weird swampy Shenlin. It was a fierce ghost that obviously had not recovered. Its coverage area could not even cover this barren mountain, let alone the crowd outside the mountain.
An unresuscitated ghost, a ghost trapped in the mountain, devoured the corpses of several people outside the mountain. This itself is illogical.
Taking everything into consideration, there is only one possibility.
What we see before us is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. These corpses were abandoned by man!
"This fierce ghost has not yet fully recovered. Its range of influence does not even cover half of the mountain, let alone the outside world."
This guess is very reasonable. Someone even used some method to delay the resurrection of the ghost, and used the ghost's ability to devour corpses to destroy his masterpiece, that part of the corpse!
If Shen Lin and others hadn't strayed into that strange swamp, all this might never have been discovered.
Zhao Ziliang stopped talking, and his only eyes exposed to the outside world were extremely gloomy.
If what Shen Lin said was true, they might have wandered into someone's conspiracy recklessly.
It's even very possible that this was a trap set up for a few of them, just to trap them and kill them on the spot.
At this moment, Zhao Ziliang realized what Shen Lin was referring to.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, they have already broken in. Perhaps they have already caught the eyes of the guy who planned all this. Now that they have seen all this, the other party will definitely not let them leave easily.
"Fuck!" Thinking of this, Zhao Ziliang cursed secretly.
It was a bad start. He encountered this situation when he first arrived at Barren Mountain. He almost wanted to scold the eight generations of ancestors behind the guy who controlled all this.
"What to do now?" After several ups and downs, Zhao Ziliang barely suppressed his emotions. He gritted his teeth and asked Shen Lin's next plan.
"Let's go first. Let's leave this place first." Shen Lin said.
It doesn’t matter where they go, what matters is that people don’t lock into their location.
This thick fog makes no difference between them. Since they lost their way due to the thick fog, and the strange magnetic field of this mountain range caused the electronic equipment to malfunction, then the other party is also similar.
Nature is fair to humans and will never treat someone differently because of their specialness.
Shen Lin staggered to his feet, and Li Gui managed to suppress it, but the trauma caused to his body was still there. Every step he took now had a stinging pain all over his body, stimulating the nerves in his brain, which was very sore.
Dai Heming has not yet woken up. It is the first time he faces the incident as a ghost controller, but the response is not enough after all.
Zhao Ziliang was not polite and carried the person on his shoulders like a sack.
In the barren mountains where the cold wind was blowing, the three of them slowly disappeared into the thick fog.
This team got off to a bad start and encountered setbacks.
Judging from the original situation, the balanced and stable Shen Lin, the extremely self-protective Zhao Ziliang, and the fledgling Dai Heming were paired together.
This combination is enough to give Shen Lindu the foundation to take action.
But things didn't go as planned. As soon as they entered this barren mountain, they encountered something unexpected.
The activation of the fifth-level ghost realm has made Shen Lin's current state extremely bad. He must try not to use his abilities as much as possible at this stage, otherwise his physical condition will further worsen.
Passing through unknown bushes and woods, Shen Lin's eyes were still looking calmly ahead.
The thick fog in front of them never dissipated, and they were not attacked again.
So far, all this is at least good, which means that their method of changing directions has played a certain role.
The bad news is that they always get lost in the woods, which is not a good thing.
As time passed, Shen Lin had to start thinking about some issues.
It is very possible that Zhou Bin and Xu Fang have been trapped in this incident, and the positioning equipment on them is also very likely to be a bait deliberately released by someone with an intention to lure people like them into the mountains. Just like grandpa, he harvests one crop after another.
Shen Lin had no idea who this person was, what his purpose was, or why he was hunting ordinary people.
He could only prepare for the worst.
"How long have we been gone?"
In the thick fog, Shen Lin asked.
The magnetic field here was as weird as Wu Qiu said. Not only did the electronic instruments malfunction, but the watch on his wrist was also affected. Sometimes it stagnated, sometimes it sped up, and sometimes it even reversed.
It is no longer possible to judge the time by relying solely on instruments. They can only rely on intuition and guessing, which will obviously lead to huge misunderstandings.
"About a day and a night." Dai Heming said quietly. He woke up not long ago and was a little sluggish after the current situation, but he quickly calmed down.
The rich man has seen many big scenes. Although he has never experienced anything like this, it does not hinder his strong psychological quality.
Shen Lin was silent and looked around.
After walking all day and night, he didn't find much. The barren mountains in the thick fog seemed to be the same everywhere. They could only feel the ups and downs of the earth's veins, but not the edges of the mountains.
There is a poem that says that one does not know the true face of Mount Lu just because one is in this mountain.
This is probably the case. They are trapped in the mountains, so they cannot recognize the mountains and cannot get out of the mountains.
A day and a night without food is a trivial matter for a ghost master.
The influence of the ghosts makes their demand for food not as strong as ordinary people. It is even possible for people like Zhao Ziliang or Shen Lin to stop eating.
You can't expect a corpse to metabolize, that's unrealistic.
Being trapped here, the psychological discomfort is actually stronger than the physical discomfort.
"I don't think it's an option to continue like this." Dai Heming said dullly. The series of accidents, coupled with being trapped here, made him become a little timid from being ambitious.
Facts have proved that the unknown horror is really terrifying, and it is not a horror that humans can imagine.
Dai Heming had done a lot of mental preparation for himself before coming, but he still couldn't stop the unexpected coming.
According to the information, this barren mountain covers an area of 50 square kilometers. Coupled with the thick fog, it is impossible to identify the direction. It is no different from walking blindfolded.
What can you do while walking blindfolded? You don't even know whether you are walking in a straight line or diagonally. This is the situation Shen Lin and the others are in now.
If they are unlucky, they may not be able to get out for the rest of their lives.
"The ghost incident itself happens frequently. We have no better solution at this stage. If you are not satisfied, you can stay here. No one will stop you." Zhao Ziliang said unceremoniously. This is a very arrogant person. He was easy to talk to in front of Shen Lin but was beaten down. He was not so polite to Dai Heming.
"But we have been walking for a day and a night. It turns out that we can't get out of here just by moving. Instead of wasting time like this, it is better to try another way." Dai Heming retorted with a cold face. There was a qualitative difference in the way they dealt with the problem. Disagreement.
Shen Lin squinted his eyes and listened to everything quietly.
In the battle of trapped beasts, when a group of beasts are trapped in a cage with no hope of escape, they will start fighting on their own in order to survive.
This is so similar to the situation before us.
