Chapter 620 Dead Corpse by the River (1)
Hearing Jiang Chen's inquiry, Xun Siyuan nodded and admitted the problem he was worried about.
He is different from Jiang Chen. He spent a lot of effort before coming here to get two high-level peace talismans. Before he could get down to the ancient tomb, these two peace talismans have been used up now.
It's right.
Xun Siyuan knew that the future journey would be even more dangerous. Without the peace talisman, he would probably find it difficult to reach the end, let alone seize the liquid spiritual energy.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen smiled slightly. After the talisman on Xun Siyuan was activated last time, Jiang Chen found that Xun Siyuan was slightly stunned, and his face was full of heartache.
Just now, Jiang Chen saw the same expression on Xun Siyuan's face. Obviously, these two peace talismans are very important to him.
Jiang Chen knew very well that not all sorcerers could easily take out many high-level talismans, and it was rare for many casual cultivators to get one or two high-level talismans.
While Jiang Chen was moved, Li Wen also reacted. He took out several talismans from his body and stuffed them into Xun Siyuan's hand.
"Huh?" Xun Siyuan looked at the talisman in his hand and said in surprise: "Junior Brother Li, what are you doing?"
"Senior Brother Xun, since we are a team, we are all our own people. You can keep these talismans for self-defense." Li Wen replied.
"No!" After Xun Siyuan reacted, he immediately wanted to return the talisman to Li Wen, and said with a serious look on his face, "Junior Brother Li, we meet by chance, how could I want such a precious talisman for you?!"
Li Wen advised: "Senior Brother Xun, if you want to show off, I still have a lot of these talismans. You can keep them for yourself."
"Junior Brother Li, I appreciate your kindness. But I really can't ask for your talisman, I..."
Xun Siyuan was interrupted by Jiang Chen as soon as he said halfway through his words, and Jiang Chen said softly.
"Senior Brother Xun, please accept the talisman my third brother gave you."
"But......"
As soon as Xun Siyuan spoke, he was interrupted by Jiang Chen again.
"Senior Brother Xun, there is no, but." Jiang Chen said firmly.
He stretched out his hand and patted Xun Siyuan on the shoulder, then said in a joking tone: "Since Senior Brother Xun, you have already boarded our pirate ship, then we are now grasshoppers on the same rope."
"If you encounter any danger in the future, we will definitely not stand by. Brother Xun, do you want to see us being distracted to save you?"
Jiang Chen's last sentence can be said to be about Xun Siyuan's heart. He definitely didn't want to see Jiang Chen and Li Wen distracted to save him.
"Okay, I've accepted the talisman. Thank you two junior brothers."
Xun Siyuan finally accepted the talisman and thanked Jiang Chen and Li Wen very gratefully.
He had experienced many hardships and rains, and it was false to say that he was not moved in his heart.
On the other side, after seeing Xun Siyuan accepting the talisman, Li Wen and Jiang Chen looked at each other and smiled.
In fact, the reason why Li Wen gave the talisman to Xun Siyuan without hesitation was that he believed that Xun Siyuan had no bad intentions, rather than saying that he believed more about Jiang Chen's vision of people.
Along the way, Li Wen saw Jiang Chen's attitude towards Xun Siyuan. Although he didn't know why Jiang Chen treated Xun Siyuan so well, he still chose to support Jiang Chen with practical actions without hesitation.
"Okay, Senior Brother Xun, don't be moved here." Jiang Chen chuckled and patted Xun Siyuan on the shoulder, and said, "If you have a good rest, let's set off quickly."
"good!"
Jiang Chen and the other two packed their luggage and walked directly toward the sound of the flowing water on the right. With the light of the flashlight, the three of them could see many messy footprints on the ground rushing towards this direction.
"Crazy!"
Not far after the three of them walked out, a somewhat turbid underground river appeared directly in front of them, and the sound of flowing water they had heard before was also from here.
"It seems they didn't cross the river, but walked along the river."
Xun Siyuan shone with a flashlight, and the footprints on the ground were all walking upstream along the underground river.
"Let's go, let's follow the footprints."
After the words came to an end, Jiang Chen and the other two walked upstream along the underground river.
After a moment, the three of them vaguely saw an object appearing on the river ahead.
"Um?"
Jiang Chen and the other two shone forward with flashlights, but the distance was a bit far away, and they couldn't see clearly what it was.
“Be careful.”
Jiang Chen and the other two stared at the object by the river ahead and walked slowly over. As the distance narrowed, they finally saw clearly what the object was.
"Is it a corpse?!"
While the three of them exclaimed, they also took out their magic weapons. The seven dead bodies before had already caused them a lot of trouble.
"I'll go ahead, you'll follow behind." Jiang Chen said to Li Wen and Xun Siyuan.
"Okay!" Li Wen nodded and replied directly.
Xun Siyuan on the other side was about to say something, but after seeing Li Wen's reaction, he hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and responded.
Seeing the reactions of the two, Jiang Chen then walked slowly towards the corpse with a dragon beard pen in his hand.
When he came closer, Jiang Chen realized that this was a young man. At this time, he was lying on the ground, half of his face buried in his arms, and the half of his face was full of pain and fear.
Jiang Chen observed for a moment and was sure that the person on the ground was really no longer breathing. Then he stepped forward.
He first kicked the corpse with his feet. Seeing that it was not responding, he carefully checked the corpse and found that there was no wound in the visible part of the corpse.
"Bang!"
Jiang Chen turned the body over and found that there were no wounds on the front of it after examination.
After carefully checking and confirming that the corpse was not in danger, Jiang Chen waved to Li Wen and Xun Siyuan behind him.
"This corpse is not controlled, come here."
When Li Wen and Xun Siyuan heard this, they rushed over quickly.
"Old Fourth, how about it?"
"The cause of death is also unknown, but he is not controlled."
Hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Li Wen and Xun Siyuan both lowered their heads and looked at the corpse on the ground.
After seeing the corpse on the ground clearly, Xun Siyuan suddenly spoke.
"Hey? The clothes on this corpse look familiar?"
"Hmm?" Jiang Chen and Li Wen immediately turned to look at Xun Siyuan, "Senior Brother Xun, do you know this person?"
"I don't know this man, but I've seen his clothes."
Xun Siyuan recalled for a moment, and then said in a very affirmative tone.
"Looking at the clothes he was wearing, this person should be a disciple of [Chixiaoyuan]."
