Chapter 13 Dark River

The light of blood reflected the light of the knife, and the screams sounded in the dark night.

Even though they were driven by greed, the robbers still had a taboo against the deserted city, so they caught up with the merchant and his servant as quickly as possible, and started a bloody slaughter.

The servant who fell last had his neck cut off by a machete, and the other was tripped by a person around him, fell to the ground, and was soon trampled into a pulp by the camel.

Abandoning his companions did not slow down the speed of the robber. Facing the scimitar, in order to save his life, the businessman pulled the last servant to him, and the servant died under the knife before he could react in time.

Everything happened too fast, He Ning hid behind the ruins and clenched his fists.

The smell of blood excited the robbers, and also stimulated the giant beast hiding in the dark.The mammoth and green lizard were still able to restrain themselves, but the ground beast was attracted by the smell of blood, and slowly crawled out of the ruins step by step.

Instinctively, they can be exposed to the flames. Their huge bodies, sharp teeth, and bloody eyes make people feel terrified.

"Earthwalker!"

Fear, panic, covered the faces of the robbers.

One, two... five.

When all the land beasts appeared, the robbers all looked ashamed.

No one looked at the businessman who collapsed on the ground anymore, they only thought about one thing, escape!

The only ones who can control the beasts are the barbarians in the west. How could such terrifying carnivorous monsters appear in the ruins deep in the eastern desert?Could it be that the terrifying legend of the deserted city originated from them?

Five ground beasts appeared from three directions, faintly surrounding the robbers.

The distance is getting closer and closer, and the huge mouth is opened. The sharp teeth can easily bite the bones of a camel.

"run!"

The robbers frantically whipped the camels, the instinct of escape, and the fear of predatory beasts made the camels huddle together, with several heads colliding with each other from time to time.During the fierce collision, some robbers fell to the ground, their cries for help were ignored, and they were even trampled to death by their accomplice's camels.

The ground beast let out a roar, accelerated its speed, and swept its thick tail on the ground, rolling up a cloud of dust.

Panicked robbers, dropped torches, camels unable to get out of the ruins, and the roar of ferocious beasts interweave into a scene like hell.

In the deserted city deep in the desert, the bloody massacre is about to begin.

The moonlight seemed to be dyed blood red.

The merchant's body was stained with the servant's blood, and he tried desperately to stand up, but his legs refused to move.The ground beast chased after the robber, and the screams and the sound of bones breaking not far away clearly showed what was happening there.

Fear distorted the merchant's face, and a huge black figure appeared from the darkness, which made him almost stop breathing in fear.

The footsteps of the mammoth were like thunder, and the green lizard standing next to the mammoth looked so small that He Ning could almost be ignored.The merchant still saw the only humanoid creature in the darkness, though that creature's eyes glowed like a beast.

Gudong!

The sound of swallowing saliva, the eardrum hurts due to the rolling up and down of the Adam's apple.

He Ning got closer and closer, the businessman no longer hesitated, took out a beautiful bag from his arms, tore it open, and inside were two blood-red gemstones.

"Let me go, please let me go!"

Putting the jewel in front of him, he also tore off the gold chain on his body, and took off the ring on his hand. Seeing that He Ning didn't move, the businessman felt desperate.I have been traveling all over the mainland all year round, and I have also heard about the legend of the deserted city. No one can get out of this legendary deserted city.

Could it be that he is destined to die here today?

He Ning did not speak, his eyes were attracted by the rubies on the ground.There seemed to be a voice in his head telling him that this was very important to him!

The left ear started to heat up, the silver earbud emitted a gleam, the ears buzzed, the brows were frowned, and strange memories invaded again.

The last scream came to an abrupt end in the night, and all the robbers failed to escape.

The panicked camels became a delicacy for the local beasts. The camels carried some expensive spices, all of which were robbed from the caravan. In order to chase the fleeing merchants, most of the goods were sent back to their lairs.Only these precious spices will not be handed over to other robbers by the bandit leader.

He Ning put his head in his hands, trying to control the humming in his mind, but he couldn't do it at all.

The businessman, trembling in the dark, suddenly jumped up from the ground, turned and ran.

He Ning fell to the ground softly, the ruby ​​left by the businessman on the ground, and the black gem on his ear complement each other, the silver earring detached from the earlobe, and turned into a scepter again, the two blood-red gems began to vibrate and collide with each other, Wrapped in a ball of golden light, it slowly became smaller until it disappeared.

The golden light was so bright that the fleeing businessman didn't dare to look back. He ran desperately, ran desperately, escaped from the deserted city, plunged into the desert, and buried himself in the night.Neither the mammoth nor the green lizard chased after him. Whether he survived depends on the will of the gods.They guarded He Ning, standing in the golden light, motionless.

The scepter rose higher and higher, and the golden light gradually enveloped the entire deserted city.

The ground beast stopped eating and quickly ran towards the center of the golden light.

He Ning, who fell on the ground, was also wrapped in golden light, his eyes were closed tightly, and his black hair was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the golden light, the ivory of the mammoth shone like white jade, and the color of the green lizard instantly turned emerald green.

The river flowing through the deserted city glowed with silver light, and the Banyue Lake outside the city rippled.A small silver fish jumped out of the water, its dorsal and tail fins stained a bright red.

He Ning stood up slowly, the black hair hanging down to his waist was like a smooth silk.

Opening his eyes, the scenery changed again, the night sky turned clear, the dilapidated houses and streets became bustling, only the river across the city remained unchanged, and the stone slabs at the bottom of the river were clearly visible in the water.

The scent of flowers and fruits floated in the air, and the maiden in white gauze meandered forward with a silver plate in her hand.Round shoulders, plump arms, skin like the finest pearls.Her long hair is tied up in a high bun, and the hair is dotted with gems strung on silver chains.

The man with black hair and black robe walked in the front of the line, his face was invisible, but his back was solemn and solemn.

As the team passed by, people's devout prayers passed through the torrent of history and flowed into He Ning's ears.Drums sounded in the temple, men stepped on the steps of the temple, and the maidens offered their tributes to the god devoutly. Accompanied by drums and string music, they danced in honor of the gods.

Bare feet, dancing white gauze, silver bells on the waist and thin bracelets on the wrists jingle.During the rapid rotation, the white gauze was hazy, like a fairyland.

The man with black hair and black robe raised his silver scepter, the drumbeat became more rapid, he turned around, his black eyes seemed to meet He Ning for an instant.A familiar face raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Big Witch, what are you looking at?"

A man's voice suddenly sounded, and He Ning's blond hair flashed in front of his eyes. The next moment, the bustling scene suddenly disappeared. He was standing in front of the only intact building in the city. In the corridor, stood a temple with huge stone pillars.

The mammoth and the ground beast seemed to be afraid, but only the green lizard followed He Ning step by step.

The scepter floated in front, and the golden light guided He Ning into the hall of the temple step by step. The murals on the dome seemed to come to life in an instant, and the green lizard beside him let out a roar, not a familiar hiss, but a giant like a black lizard Roar.

He Ning turned his head, and the green lizard stepped on the ground with its hind legs, raised its head, opened its mouth, and yelled at the mural on the dome, how stupid it was like that.

He covered his face and sighed, the last time he came in, the green lizard was obviously not like this, what happened?

The scepter finally stopped, and two seconds later, it flew into the air with a whoosh, knocking out another big hole in the dome, the moonlight and starlight poured in, and the golden light gradually weakened and became smaller. It was tightly clasped on He Ning's left ear.

Under the moonlight, the dusty floor suddenly began to glow, and the light formed a strange pattern, and there was a roar from the ground.

He Ning's heart beat faster, he couldn't stay here any longer!

Reason told He Ning to run fast, but there seemed to be a mysterious force in the temple, which bound his feet tightly, making it difficult for him to move forward.I want to ask the green lizard for help, but he can't run away, so I can always let the green lizard take it for a ride, right?

Not wanting the Green Lizard's condition to get worse, he was still standing strong, this one was already thrown down.

The mammoths and ground beasts outside the temple became anxious, roaring like beasts, but they never dared to take a step forward.

The roar gradually weakened, and the force binding the feet disappeared in an instant. He Ning raised his legs and ran away, not forgetting to pat the green lizard who was still lying on the ground.

What are you still doing lying down?run!

At the same time as taking the first step, the stone slab under his feet suddenly collapsed and fell rapidly. He Ning once again raised his middle finger at the great god of crossing. Is there an end? !Is it over yet? !Really can't see him having a peaceful birthday for two days? !

Pfft!Pfft!

There was a dark river flowing under the temple, He Ning was lucky not to be thrown to death, but was almost drowned.Struggling to swim from the water to the shore, I even sneezed twice.

The river is deep enough to submerge.It was also very cold, and people turned blue from the cold.The green lizard went ashore one step ahead of He Ning, and it was obvious that it was also frozen.

After jumping hard a few times, taking off his pants and wringing them dry, he finally let his body warm up. Only then did He Ning notice that on the rock walls on both sides, grooves were dug out one after another by someone. The beads are glowing softly.

The underground river seems to have no end, and the pearl on the rock wall seems to be a guide.

Looking up at the place where I fell, it was a fluke that I didn't fall to my death at such a height!

Find a way to climb up, or go forward?

He Ning turned to look at the green lizard, "Brother, what do you think?"

Green Lizard: "..."

He Ning: "Okay, then let's go forward. If we can't find the way, we will go back at worst."

Green Lizard: "..."

One person and one lizard seemed to have returned to the days when they were working together to survive in the desert. In the soft white light, they walked forward step by step along the underground river.

He Ning subconsciously touched the earbud on his left ear, and there was a little change from before. It spread from the ear vertically to the auricle, and there were two blood-red gemstones beside the black gemstone, as if inlaid in a bend of silver. two drops of blood.
