Chapter 404 Blocking the Road
Meng Die smiled and said: "Then I will marry him, what do you think?"
The little girl pouted and said: "Who is worthy of the young lady? Even if Li Po can solve the puzzle alone, I still feel that the young lady has been wronged."
While the two were talking, a swordsman hurried over and handed the little girl a note. The little girl just glanced at it, but her eyes shone brightly: "Li Po is finished!"
"Did Fang Xuan take action?" Meng Die said without looking back: "Fang Xuan's secret method is best used in the morning. He must be the first one to intercept Li Po!"
The little girl was surprised and said: "Miss, is there anything else you don't know?"
"I don't know how Li Po can deal with Fang Xuan!" Meng Die seemed to be talking to himself: "If he lets him go, I will be very disappointed."
Meng Die raised his hand as he spoke: "Activate the formation, Li Po and the others are almost here!"
When Meng Die used the formation to hide his figure, I had already followed the walking corpse dragging the coffin to a relatively open woodland. The walking corpse in front also stopped.
It's almost dawn!
The zombies dragging the coffin are not of a high level and cannot walk in the sun. They have to stop as soon as it gets light.
I raised my head and looked at the sky: "Niu Bao, let the zombies stop. Let's take a rest too."
Niu Bao scratched his head and said: "I don't know how to stop them. My father never taught me. However, these zombies are afraid of the crow of chickens..."
Before Niu Bao finished speaking, a cock crow came from the woods.
"Where did the cock crow come from?" Niu Bao suddenly trembled.
Domestic chickens can crow, but pheasants cannot crow. If the pheasants living in the deep mountains and old forests kept crowing at dawn, they would have been eaten to extinction by natural enemies that followed the sound.
Wild chickens will only crow when they are in danger, and the sound is different from domestic chickens.
However, the noise coming from the woods was clearly the crowing of chickens!
The roosters crowed together, and the eight zombies seemed to be surprised. At the same time, they turned around, grabbed the coffin lid with both hands, lifted it to the side, plunged into the coffin, and quickly closed the coffin.
There was also a banging sound coming from the coffin, and it sounded like the corpse was shivering inside the coffin.
Niu Bao said with a trembling voice: "Brother Li! There is a rooster crow!"
"Have you ever heard of the crow of roosters in the mountains? If the roosters crow at home, they are calling for living people. If the roosters are crowing in the mountains, they are calling for dead people!"
"There must be dead people hiding around here where we can't see them. They all come out when the rooster crows."
"Listen...listen...the rooster crows again."
When the rooster crowed again, a chill came over me.
I have never heard a chicken crow like that. The sound is like a ghost squatting in the distance calling someone's name. I can't listen carefully. When I hear it, I feel like I am calling myself.
Ye Yang quietly gestured to me, and I grabbed Niu Bao's wrist with my backhand: "Follow me!"
Niu Bao was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Brother Li, where are you going? Don't go to the place where the rooster crows! Isn't that asking for death?"
"Follow the rooster's crow and meet old friends in the barren mountains! This is what your master said, don't be afraid, just follow me!" I took Niu Bao and headed towards the forest diagonally above.
Niu Bao dragged me back desperately: "No, Brother Li, when did my father say this? Why didn't I know?"
I pulled Niu Bao and walked faster and faster: "Do you understand the secret code of the coffin door?"
As soon as Niu Bao said to me, "I don't understand!" I dragged him into the forest: "You don't understand, I understand. That's what your father said to me in code words."
Niu Bao looked at the white light shining in the snow in the woods. He held the tree with one hand and refused to leave. "Brother Li, don't go there. It's a dead end over there. We'll be dead if we go there. Just listen to that chicken."
Call……"
"Brother Li! Aren't you being tortured by a ghost? Brother Ye...Brother Ye...stop Brother Li quickly, or you will be dead if you leave."
At that time, it was not just Niu Bao who was shouting like this. The little girl from the Meng family who was standing on the mountain in the distance and looking down at us was also confused: "Miss, is this the Li Po you are talking about? This... this is too embarrassing.
Come on! Fang Xuan only used a chicken crow to charm him."
"Isn't Li Po the young master? Don't you know you can't walk in the snow over there?"
Anyone who often goes into the mountains knows that the flatter the snow is, the harder it is to walk on it. This is true even in inaccessible mountains.
There are no people in the mountains, but there are a lot of wild animals. Even the wild animals don't go there, which can only mean that there are dangerous things covered under the snow, or the snow there is too thick, and it is easy to get out if you sink one foot.
In the forest where the crow of roosters came from, the snow on the ground looked as if someone had wiped it with hands, without even a trace of undulation. From a distance, it looked like a platform built in a clearing in the forest.
Niu Baobao couldn't persuade me no matter what, so he simply called Ye Yang: "Brother Ye! Please persuade Brother Li quickly! If you don't look at the snow, you have to look at the tree circle! That is the tree circle, let's
If you go in, it will really be over."
There are three inaccessible places in the mountains, and one of them is the tree circle, which is a circular clearing in the woods.
There are no trees growing there, not because the soil is bad, but because there is something in the soil that suppresses the earth's energy. When you walk up there, it's like stepping on the head of something.
