Killing God

Chapter 29 The Canyon

Xiao Hei held the severed hand in his mouth, ran out of the grass, ran all the way to Shen Shi's body and loosened his teeth, and the severed hand fell to the ground with a thud. ●⌒

Shen Shi squatted down, his eyes were cold, and he took a close look at the severed hand. The little black pig shook his body beside him, looking a little disturbed, and hummed twice at the wild grass in front of him. .

Shen Shi touched Xiao Hei's head lightly, and finally his eyes fell on the wound of the severed hand. You can see that the severed hand was probably broken by the elbow, and the fracture was quite flat. It seemed that it was hit by a sharp edge. Cut off, including half sleeves wrapped around the wrist.

After a while, Shen Shi stood up, glanced at Xiao Hei, and said in a deep voice, "There is more over there?"

Xiao Hei nodded.

Shen Shi stepped forward and walked over the wild grass. The little fox that emerged from here just now has no idea where to go. It seems that he was scared away under Xiao Hei's sharp teeth. As Shen Shi moved forward, he soon found that the weeds in the grass had several traces of being squeezed by being trampled, and there was a faint blood in the air.

Shen Shi's footsteps paused slightly, but did not stay for long, because at this time he had seen a shirt exposed in the depths of the grass in front of him, and a figure seemed to be lying motionless in the grass, there was no movement.

Shen Shi glanced to the left and right. After he was sure there was no danger, he walked over and took a look at the wild grass that was knee-high. As expected, a man fell on his back in the wild grass, his face pale in horror, and his eyes blinked round. He didn't blink, and his muscles were stiff and pale, but he was already dead.

Shen Shi glanced at that person's arm, and he saw that the person's right elbow was empty below the elbow. It was obvious that the severed hand that Xiao Hei had just grabbed was the person's. This discovery did not make Shen Shi’s face look better, on the contrary, it looked a little more solemn and solemn, because at this time, he had already seen from the clothes on the dead man, that this man was only from the Heavenly Sword Palace in the four-right gate. Disciple.

Shen Shi frowned and checked the corpse, and finally confirmed two things. First, the stranger of the Heavenly Sword Palace should have died in the past few days. This is from the wound. The degree can be roughly judged, and there are other strange bite wounds on the body, which seem to be traces of being bitten by some scavengers; second, most of the people who killed the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace were not monsters. It is a person who can use a weapon, because in addition to the cut that broke the hand, there is also the most deadly wound from the back straight through the heart, coming out of the chest, and killing it.

Shen Shi stood up slowly, glanced at the face of the deceased Tianjian Palace disciple for the last time, and saw that his eyes were still wide before he died, and he was frightened with despair and even a little bit of anger. It's a bit stubborn. He shook his head slowly, and his thoughts turned. Only humans can make the blade good, but in the earlier records, the Wentian Secret Realm almost appeared from the unsecured natives and only the tyrannical monsters. But this time After entering the Secret Realm, he himself encountered the weird Bloodfang tribe, so his cognition was shaken.

Apart from the worst possible possibility, could this disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace also be discovered and killed by a secret native like the Bloodfang tribe?

After only thinking for a while, Shen Shi himself denied this possibility. According to his exchanges with the Bloodfang tribe, at least in this vast area of ​​the dragon wilderness, the Bloodfang tribe should be the only indigenous tribe. . Now it is because the bloodfang tribe is gradually weakening. There is no strong person in the tribe that can pass through that dangerous and unnamed swamp. However, in the previous records, the soldiers of the bloodfang tribe have explored far and larger areas than here, and there is no Find traces of any other tribes.

But if this is the case, since the murderer is not an aboriginal tribe in other secret realms, and the Bloodfang tribe is obviously not suspicious because they will never pass through this swamp, then the murderer who killed the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace is almost ready to come out. .

The corners of Chen Shi's eyes twitched slightly, and he was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked out. Xiao Hei glanced at him. When he was about to follow, he suddenly saw Shen Shi's body and turned around again. Come, walk quickly to the corpse, as if thinking of something, quickly rummaging through it.

After a while, his movements stopped, and then he stood up but his face became more ugly, he snorted, his eyes became firmer, he sneered and said to himself: "Sure enough, even the wishful bag Take it away."

※※※

Shen Shi glanced at the corpse one last time, then turned and walked away. The shadow hidden by his body slowly moved away from the face of the deadly disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace, and the hot and dry sunlight once again shone on his pale face. on. As the footsteps faded away, the grass gradually calmed down from the shaking, and the surroundings gradually became quiet. Only this unnamed corpse was left in this desolate and remote corner of the wilderness. As time passed, he would gradually Rotting, flesh and blood being eaten by wild beasts or decayed, turned into a skeleton that no one cares about, and finally turned into dust, disappearing in this strange world.

On the way to seek immortality, there are so many monks who have fallen halfway. Shen Shi himself does not know how many he has seen. Although he is still very young, he has seen a lot of life and death, so in many cases his The heart is hard enough to not be moved.

But his face is not pretty right now. When he left the wild grass and returned to the wilderness outside, he was already thinking about the consequences of this incident in his heart.

Obviously, the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace was probably killed by another person who was also born in the Four Righteous Sect and entered the Wentian Secret Realm to experience and explore. Although I have long heard of similar dark things, but witnessing this scene with my own eyes in the Wentian secret realm at this moment still makes Shen Shi feel a little cool.

In addition, he also had some surprises in his heart. It is said that this Wentian Secret Realm is extremely large. It seems that there are more than three or four hundred disciples of the Four Sects who have entered it. In fact, the chance of encountering is not very high. In the past records, most people completed the entire expedition time alone.

Now think about it, although they did not meet at the beginning, and the distance between them is not close at hand, but only separated by a swamp of giant dragon wilderness, this distance is obviously quite close. And most importantly, it seemed that at the moment, it seemed that more than one person was very close to him. In addition to the unknown murderer, at least two disciples of the four sects landed very close to him.

Shen Shi looked at the gray wilderness and sky in the distance, and for the first time felt that the monks who belonged to the human race seemed more terrifying than the unknown monsters in this wilderness.

In the next time, Shen Shi also considered whether to turn his head directly, cross the swamp and return to the Bloodfang tribe or explore in another direction. After all, go further, perhaps somewhere in the wilderness. A very dangerous murderer. But after considering it for a while, he gave up the idea and moved on.

The disciple of the Ning Yuan realm entered the secret realm to explore, Shen Shi gently touched the wishful bag on his waist, and Xiao Hei who was following his feet seemed to feel something, raising his head and looking at Shen Shi. Shen Shi then smiled slightly. He was already tenacious, but in such a dangerous place, which was as dangerous as the wild, he had been in the demon world for three years. If it is really dangerous, he is not afraid of anyone. .

Once he was determined, he had no distractions, and continued to move forward while paying attention to his surroundings along the way. However, the unknown murderer seemed to have left after killing the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace and taking away his belongings. It was near here, so Shen Shi walked for half a day and never found anything unusual.

However, Shen Shi didn't dare to just let it go. In order not to expose his traces as much as possible, he would not fly with the sword, otherwise he would take Xiao Hei to drive the Snow Snow Sword and fly over the sky with big thorns, as long as he had eyes. Everyone will see it.

After walking like this for a day, in the evening of that day, when the sunset was going to sink, Shen Shi saw that a different terrain finally appeared in the wasteland ahead.

It is a very wide gorge that traverses this wilderness. Looking at it, it is at least several thousand feet long and two to three hundred feet wide. The bottom of the canyon is covered with crimson-red rocks, and many places even sandy soil. They all had a bit of burnt red, just like that, and they suddenly appeared in front of him.

Because the sky was a bit dim in the evening, when Chen Shi stood on the edge of this gorge and looked down, he only felt that the bottom was dim, and many places were blurred and only the outlines of some faint rocks could be seen, higher ones. See the place more closely, except for stones and sand, there are almost no green plants. It seems that the entire canyon gives people a red but desolate feeling.

I couldn't see the situation under this gorge, and naturally I couldn’t see how deep the gorge was. Shen Shi stared at the dimly dim area below for a while, then looked at the opposite side of the gorge, and saw another gorge in the distance. The wasteland on one side was already plunged into a gray dimness, and it was not easy to see clearly at a distance.

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, and then decided not to go forward. The wilderness after nightfall, according to his previous travel and expedition experience, was afraid that it would be more dangerous than the day. This was at least on the first day when he came to Wentian secret realm. In the ruins of the dead village, it has been verified.

The gorge below is deep and full of rocks. It seems that it is easy to find a safe place to avoid the wind, but the sinking stone does not mean to go down. Instead, he called Shang Xiaohei to walk aside, instead, he was further away from the gorge. a bit. It’s just that this wilderness is too desolate, and you can’t even see a thicker tree, so in the end, Shenshi can only take Xiao Hei to a place more than ten meters away from the edge of the canyon and find a larger one. He sat down at random by the stone, planning to spend the night like this.

"Hey, stay awake at night and don't sleep late." Shen Shi looked at Xiao Hei who was lying at his feet, and said with a serious face: "It is very dangerous here. You have to call out if there is any movement."

Xiao Hei looked at the darkened sky, grumbled twice in his mouth, then moved closer to Shen Shi, leaned his head on his lap, closed his eyes, and fell asleep silently, looking like He didn't pay attention to Shen Shi's words.

Shen Shi rolled his eyes, shook his head and ignored it. After taking a glance at his surroundings, he closed his eyes and calmed down.

The night quickly fell on this wasteland, and darkness poured in from all directions, completely engulfing the two of them, and also flooding the deep and wide canyon in front.

In the darkness, there is a feeling that the canyon has disappeared out of thin air. I don’t know when it started. On this dark and quiet wasteland, from an unknown place, from the depths of the darkness, a sound suddenly sounded. A voice.

"Ah...ah...ah..."

It was like a sharp, high-pitched, and full-bodied woman crying and screaming. It floated out from the depths of the darkness, floating in this desolate and dark wilderness...
