Chapter 57 Hanging Coffin Canyon 29 [2 more]
"What is this place?"
Lu Cheng couldn't help standing up from the river bank, and turned his head to look around.
——This seems to be a fjord surrounded on all sides, and there are also hanging coffins on the cliffs.
The difference is that there are iron chains tied to the top of these hanging coffins, each of which either meanders or vertically extends into the river.
Moreover, around these hanging coffins, on the surrounding mountain cliffs, there are also large areas of red flowers blooming in a strange style, which he has never seen before.
The place where Lu Cheng is at the moment is at the entrance of the river flowing into the fjord between the canyons hanging from the sky, and there are smaller river banks on both sides of the entrance.
He was swept to one side by the river.
But the river bank is actually not too big after careful observation, and the edge in contact with the river water will soon disappear as it extends into the fjord.
In other words, Lu Cheng is now trapped on this river bank.
Left, right, front, back, even up and down, you can't move forward or backward... No, I don't know if you can climb up here.
Lu Cheng looked at the hanging coffins and iron chains on the cliff wall of the mountain and meditated.
But at this moment, he suddenly heard some voices coming from the water in the deep pool of the fjord.
Lu Cheng suddenly turned his head to look.
——I saw circles of ripples suddenly appearing on the originally calm water surface, and something seemed to want to emerge from it, and there were quite a few of them.
Lu Cheng's expression changed drastically, and he stepped back slowly until his body retreated to the side of the mountain.
Behind him is the lowest hanging coffin, and his fingertips have already touched the iron chains wrapped around the hanging coffin and the unknown flower, and the coldness and softness came together.
He had nowhere to retreat, so he stopped, looking at the water surface with doubts in his eyes.
Lu Cheng knew what would come out of that river.
Sure enough, one after another, water ghosts and fish monsters slowly appeared from the water surface. They were dripping with water, and they looked terrible. They stared at Lu Cheng with sinister eyes.
It seemed that Lu Cheng would be dragged into the river and drowned in the next moment.
This scene was terrifying enough, and it was enough to scare a person with poor mental endurance to collapse.
But Lu Cheng's mental capacity is obviously not low.
After all, he had just killed his brother, and this scene was not new, but it was just a group of water ghosts who couldn't go ashore.
As long as he stayed on the river bank until dawn, the water ghosts would disappear, and he would find a way out of this ghostly place.
he will be fine.
Thinking of this, Lu Cheng's heart relaxed a little, and it stopped beating like before, and a smile was about to appear on the corner of his mouth...
But at this moment, those water ghosts faced Lu Cheng, and even grinned at him together, the corners of their mouths curled up stiffly, like puppets being manipulated, their movements were exactly the same.
——The corner of the mouth is almost grinning to the ear, and the mouth is full of thin and scary sharp teeth.
Just when Lu Cheng's eyes widened and he didn't know why, the iron chain behind him suddenly trembled. No, it wasn't just the iron chain that trembled.
Even the hanging coffin behind him was shaking slowly, as if it was about to fall from the cliff of the mountain.
Lu Cheng looked back in horror.
The hanging coffin tied up by the iron chain suddenly made a "bang bang" sound, as if something was constantly beating inside or hitting the coffin lid.
And it quickly spread to the mountain cliffs in the entire fjord like an infection.
All the coffin chains, etc. seemed to be shaking.
And those red flowers all over the cliff are constantly swaying, under the light of the moonlight, they are weird and dazzling.
"Crash" sounded.
Those iron chains were dragged down from the cliff, and the iron chains at Lu Cheng's feet were a little stretched.
Lu Cheng immediately took two steps back in fright.
However, his heel seemed to touch something.
Lu Cheng's body froze for a moment, he felt that the thing he touched was slowly tightening his ankle, and then went up little by little...
Lu Cheng looked down, and what caught his eyes was a familiar "thing"—this "thing" was the corpse he dragged from the golden coffin and threw it off the cliff and into the river today!
Half of the white cloth and blood-soaked hemp rope wrapped around the corpse had faded away at some point, falling below the waist, revealing the horrific death-like figure inside.
There was a big hole in the head of this human figure, the hair was messy and blood-stained, the blood hole was half covered, and the skin was soft all over, the face was particularly terrifying, and the eyes seemed to be unable to fall out of their eye sockets.
There seemed to be no bones in the corpse for support, and the head fell limply on the ground, but it was still tilted, and the facial features that were almost squeezed together looked at Lu Cheng in a gloomy and terrifying manner.
Now, the corpse obviously came back to life. It crawled ashore from the river and crawled to his feet, trying to entangle him tightly.
Lu Cheng was frightened and let out a scream.
He barely had time to think, and hastily stretched out his feet to kick the dead body that was already clinging to his legs and feet with limp arms.
However, this seemingly boneless corpse was much stronger than he had imagined. He couldn't break free at all, and even swayed twice and fell to the ground.
It wasn't until this moment that Lu Cheng saw it clearly. Just when he turned his head to look at the hanging coffin on the cliff, seven corpses crawled out of the deep pool one after another.
It was what he had thrown from the golden coffin before.
These corpses wriggled and crawled towards him like snakes. They were not slow, and they arrived at his side almost in a blink of an eye, with rope-like arms stretched out towards him.
Lu Cheng yelled in horror, trying to break free and escape.
But he was trapped on this small river bank, with no way out and no way out.
Lu Cheng struggled to climb onto the hanging coffin, but the corpse grabbed his ankle desperately, no matter how much he kicked it, it would not let go.
Coupled with the unstoppable tremor of the hanging coffin, Lu Cheng couldn't hold on to the iron chain, and immediately slipped down, being surrounded by the corpses who had been waiting for a long time.
They clung to Lu Cheng's legs, arms, and body... Together they dragged Lu Cheng to the river.
Lu Cheng dragged everything on the river bank in vain, roaring unwillingly, with a terrified expression on his face.
He kicked and hit him with stones, but these corpses were like ropes winding on the ground, just entangled and dragged him, without any reaction.
Until he was dragged into the river, the cold water flooded to the top of his head and poured into his mouth...
"No, no, Gollum..."
His golden coffin has not yet been obtained, and his illness has not yet been cured.
Lu Cheng's despairing eyes were full of water ghosts swimming towards him, and vaguely, he seemed to have seen some terrifying huge creatures.
But before he could see clearly, there were bursts of severe pain, and Lu Cheng had lost consciousness. Blood splashed and scattered in the river, and the red color was slowly diluted.
Immediately, the hanging coffins and iron chains on the cliffs of the mountain stopped trembling suddenly, the water surface of the deep pool became calm again, and the river slowly washed against the shore.
Everything seemed to have never happened, even Sanma's body disappeared.
……
Time goes back.
In the mountainside, at the moment when the sun went down and it was dark, something seemed to come to life at the same time—it was the corpse lying on the stone bed that moved.
Wu Xiajiu, Professor Zhao and Tao Bin walked towards the location of the dragon head all the way.
They didn't know the exact time in the mountainside, but they inferred from the moment they entered the mountainside that it should be dark or approaching dark now.
They have not eaten or rested, hunger is secondary, fatigue and thirst are chief.
Wu Xia swallowed for a long time, feeling thirsty.
He reached out and touched his neck. The fish scales had almost reached here, and his whole body was slightly itchy, slightly painful and uncomfortable.
Moreover, an inexplicable annoyance surged into his heart, making him feel like he wanted to vent his anger.
Wu Xiajiu reluctantly suppressed it.
He thought, Professor Zhao is probably the same.
Among the three, apart from Tao Bin who occasionally whispered, Wu Xiajiu and Professor Zhao were silent.
But just as he was about to pass another fork in the road, Wu Xiajiu suddenly heard a few weird noises coming from one of the passages.
——It was as if something was rubbing and walking on the ground, making a slight rustling sound.
Wu Xiajiu hurriedly grabbed Professor Zhao and Tao Bin, and gave them a "shh".
Wu Xiajiu led the two into another passage, but did not leave yet, but waited quietly against the wall of the passage.
The rustling sound gradually approached, and finally, the thing seemed to be coming out of the side passage.
This is not the footsteps of the Xun people.
But in the entire mountainside, besides them and the Xun people, what else is there?
The moment he heard that voice, Wu Xiajiu couldn't help but think of the corpse placed on the stone bed. Could the corpse suddenly come back to life for no apparent reason?
Although a bit preposterous, Wu Xiajiu has always believed in his intuition.
If people stay in an environment for a long time, they will gradually adapt.
Up to this moment, even without lighting a lighter or turning on a flashlight, Wu Xiajiu and the others can vaguely see things in the dim mountain pass.
Although it's just a rough outline, it's not so blind.
Under the watchful eyes of Wu Xiajiu, Professor Zhao and Tao Bin, the thing making strange noises gradually crawled out from the passage next to it.
——The unkempt hair, the limp and drooping facial features, the shriveled and intertwined limbs...
It was really those corpses wrapped in white cloth.
It's just that now the white cloth has been pushed back to the back, and it is grazing the ground with the movement of the corpse, so there is such a sound.
Tao Bin trembled all over, he tightly covered his mouth, his eyes were extremely frightened.
Fortunately, the three of them knew the seriousness, and they didn't dare to move and make a sound, until three corpses crawled out of the passage, and then climbed into the passage they had just come in again, gradually going away.
Wu Xiajiu whispered, "Let's go."
Professor Zhao and Tao Bin didn't dare to hesitate, turned around and left in a hurry. This passage was already the last way to the position of the dragon's head, and they were about to get close.
According to Wu Xiajiu's observation, although the slope in the passage is gentle and imperceptible, they seem to be walking up all the time.
Finally, after turning a fork in the road, a slight wind blew from the passage.
Lu Cheng couldn't help standing up from the river bank, and turned his head to look around.
——This seems to be a fjord surrounded on all sides, and there are also hanging coffins on the cliffs.
