Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

The explosion came and went quickly. Everyone waited until the smoke completely dissipated before sticking their heads out one by one to take a look.

This is indeed what Panzi said, behind the gravel is a path that can't be seen to the end.

Where Wu Xie and the others were standing now, there was an arch wrapped in vines. On the top of the arch stood a stone statue with a human face and an animal body.

"Why does this thing look so familiar?" The fat man looked at the stone statue and thought seriously, but he still couldn't remember where he had encountered it.

"The human-faced bird." Qin Yuchen covered his mouth and nose to resist the dust that had not completely dissipated, and said, "The last thing in Yunding Tiangong that attacked us."

"I'm going to tell you why I feel so bad when I see this thing." The fat man hissed and waved his hands in disgust.

"Why did the human-faced bird from Changbai Mountain come to Tamutuo?" Wuxie was confused and turned to ask the two people beside him.

Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling shook their heads at the same time.

Qin Yuchen stepped aside them and bent down to enter the archway. Just now they were blocked by the door and couldn't see the entire path. When he came in, he discovered that not only on the door, but also on both sides of the path, there were stone statues of human-faced birds. The stone statues are approximately four or five meters apart and extend to the end of the path.

"Hey, the Queen Mother of the West also does wholesale?" Fatty and the others also stood next to Tan Yuchen one after another. Fatty complained when he saw so many stone statues.

"What are the holes in these stone statues used for?" Wuxie walked to the nearest place and asked.

"Little Third Master, be careful of traps." Panzi quickly followed.

Ah Ning first checked the four holes, then took out a camera and took a few photos and said, "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong."

Tan Yuchen followed Zhang Qiling and moved a little away from them. Zhang Qiling took out his dagger and bent down to scrape off the moss on the abdomen of the stone statue, revealing its original appearance underneath.

When Qin Yuchen saw the row of small paintings engraved on it, he called out Wuxie, and Wuxie came in response. He became interested when he saw these murals, and quickly called the other three people to start studying the contents of the murals.

After listening to a few words, Qin Yuchen left them and went to the other side. He felt a little breathless when he entered here just now, and it was even more so now that he heard Wu Xie talking to Fatty, and his head started to hurt.

Tan Yuchen frowned, stretched out his hand to rub his temples, and looked at Zhang Qiling, who came to him with a similarly frowning face. He endured the discomfort and grabbed Wu Xie, who wanted to check the stone statue further away.

"What's wrong, Yuchen?" Wuxie asked.

"Something's wrong." Qin Yuchen said, "Don't go there yet."

"What's wrong?" A Ning glanced at Tan Yuchen, who was a little serious, and then looked around, not sensing anything.

"It's too quiet." Zhang Qiling said.

"What..." Upon hearing this, Wuxie quickly held down the fat man who wanted to speak, shushed, and then gave Panzi and the two a look.

Ah Ning and Panzi understood what he meant, nodded, slowed down their breathing, calmed down and listened to the noise around them.

But apart from their breathing and the rustle of the leaves in the breeze, there was no other sound.

"It is indeed too quiet." Wuxie said, "We are in the rain forest now, but there is not even a bird chirping in this place."

"And look at the carcasses of those animals over there."

Wuxie pointed to the half-rotted animal carcass not far away and said, "No predator would throw away the prey it caught without eating it."

"In that case, let's exit first?" A Ning suggested. They don't know what the situation is here now, so the safest way is to leave first.

But it was obviously not going to go smoothly. As soon as Ah Ning's proposal was unanimously approved, their path was blocked again by falling rocks.

six people:"……"

Zhang Qiling squatted down and threw a stone into the middle of the road. The fat man imitated his actions and threw several stones in succession and said, "Tell me, this is forcing us to go in."

"I'm going to explore the road." Panzi volunteered and walked over after seeing all the stones stopped.

"I'm coming with you." The fat man followed Panzi. They didn't go far before the fat man waved the others over, "Isn't there anything here?"

Wu Xie and A Ning didn't find anything, so they followed them.

Tan Yuchen took a deep breath, looked at each other and walked behind them.

Just when everyone thought this was an ordinary path, a little bird suddenly fell from the sky and landed at Wu Xie's feet.

Wuxie was frightened and took a step back. After seeing what it was, he squatted down to check on the bird.

This little bird is complete, without any blood stains or wounds on its body, and its feathers are also very shiny, just like a carefully crafted animal specimen.

"Let me go, this Queen Mother of the West still has the means to kill people invisible?" The fat man kicked the bird and looked up at the sky, "There is nothing in the damn sky? Why did this bird die suddenly?"

"Wait a minute, do you feel particularly uncomfortable?" Panzi covered her chest and patted it as if to calm her down, "Especially the further you go in, the more obvious it becomes."

"Have."

"Yeah." Wuxie and Aning replied at the same time.

"Ah? I don't have one?" The fat man looked back and forth at the three of them with a puzzled look on his face. He looked at Tan Yuchen who was leaning on the stone statue and Zhang Qiling who was standing next to him and asked,

"Brother Tan, where are you two?"

Tan Yuchen ignored the fat man, just raised his hand to smooth the broken hair on his forehead, lowered his eyes and hid half of his face in his collar.

The same goes for Zhang Qiling. He lowered the brim of his hat to cover his eyebrows so that no one could see his emotions.
