Thousand Miles of Knowledge: 94 Horror Happy Valley (4)


For a time, the atmosphere of the two sides became tense. At this time, the ant colony in the rear slowly moved several dozen meters.

“Stop talking, Sand Scorpion, let’s go!” Ice Snake was about to leave.

“If you don’t want to die, just go up.” Qianli’s voice came again.

“What do you mean?” Sand Scorpion asked coldly.

Qianli only said two words: “poisonous fog.”

The top is the famous Tian Mohai Cliff at the top of Caiyun. There are countless natural caves, which are later penetrated by man. Visitors can travel through the cliffs and experience the extreme pleasure.

During the day, thousands of miles can still feel that there are a few turbid creatures haunting here and there, but at night, there is no living creature. This is unusual, knowing that many creatures are nocturnal. If the ant colony had not stopped, she would not have paid attention to the above special situation.

While fleeing, he plunged into the poisonous mist, and there was only one result: the entire army was annihilated.

I have to say that the person who designed it in secret is very vicious. His ultimate goal is not to attract ants, but to drive everyone into the poisonous fog.

“Poison fog?” Not only the people in the dark pavilion were stunned, but even the members of The Fool looked surprised.

Qianli replied: “Do you still remember a record about Tianmohai Cliff? There are large patches of luminous velvet growing between the cliffs, and every night, a silvery-white shimmer will flash, like a sky full of stars, and tourists will shuttle through it. , like walking through the stars.”

“So what?”

“Noctilucent velvet has a characteristic that it will ‘breathe’ at night.” Qianli continued, “The aroma they emit at night is very pleasant, but it is slightly poisonous and cannot be absorbed for a long time. This is just that they are not turbid. before transformation.”

“What do you mean, the luminous velvet of Tian Mo Hai Cliff has become a magic plant?”

“I only know that in that area, even the turbid ant colony dare not enter. The general turbid beast is not the opponent of the ant colony at all, and their numbers are enough to ignore most advanced turbid beasts, so I don’t think they are afraid beasts.”

When everyone heard the words, they all showed a contemplative color.

Thousands of miles paused for a while, and then said, “Now, do you believe me, don’t move on, or insist on taking risks?”

Everyone in the dark pavilion looked at each other in dismay, and finally Sha Scorpio said, “What are your plans next?”

“Sha Scorpion, do you believe her words?” Ice Snake couldn’t help interrupting.

“Her inference is very reliable, and we can’t take risks.” Sand Scorpion replied, “Our simple gas masks cannot provide complete protection. Once inhaled too much poisonous gas, it is difficult to say that there will be no danger to life.”

The ice snake pursed its lips and fell silent.

The sand scorpion asked again: “The ant colony is behind us. If we stay in place, they will surely attack. Zero, what is your plan?”

“Changing course, we go around the mountainside and take the wire rope suspension bridge.”

This time, no one had any more objections, and without further delay, everyone jumped off the viewing platform and ran wildly in the direction of the steel cable suspension bridge.

Before leaving, Qianli put away the Yuanzhi 50 (a spiritual tool for testing air pollution, which appeared in the “Half-turbid Forest” chapter), which was quietly inserted into the mud layer of the cliff. She was just guessing before, and it was not until she tested it with this magic weapon that she was really sure of the poisonous mist on it. After perceptually scanning the growth area of ​​the velvet overnight, a rough estimate of the scope of the poisonous mist was obtained. It’s definitely not possible to go straight to the moat, but it should be no problem to cross the suspension bridge and enter the city directly from the corridor under the moat.

Tian Mo Hai Cliff is actually a suspended peak independent of the cliff walls, that is, a cliff within a cliff. Visitors can choose to go through the cliff or enter the floating city from the starting pavilion on the upper floor, or they can choose to walk through the long and narrow suspension bridge.

The front and back two suspension bridges are more than 1,000 meters long. They are suspended between the cliffs. They are shrouded in fog all year round and sway in the wind from time to time, which is very dangerous. In the past, to pass the suspension bridge, there would be complete protection measures, but now, it is not just the courage of everyone that needs to be tested.

As soon as Qianli and others ran away, the ant colony also moved. As long as it is not upward, the ant colony is not afraid, and the speed gradually increases.

The suspension bridge is only one person wide and cannot be paralleled, but the structure is strong and the chain is still strong.

Everyone stepped on the suspension bridge, and the bridge swayed from side to side, so that people could stand unsteadily, and they could only support the ropes on both sides to move with difficulty. In this way, the travel speed is slow, and the ant colony is about to arrive behind.

The thousand miles lying on Char’s back turned around and silently calculated the distance between the ant colony and them. At the current speed, the ants will arrive when they are halfway through.

“Everyone, speed up!” Noah shouted, apparently aware of the impending crisis.

However, on the suspension bridge, everyone couldn’t get up quickly. Below is the abyss, and if you drop it carelessly, the chances of survival are probably very small. Everyone’s nerves were tense, and they walked very cautiously step by step.

Soon, the ant colony also climbed the suspension bridge, and the movement speed was also affected, but it was twice as fast as Noah and others.

The dark pavilion member Firefox, who walked at the end, seemed to hear the dense rustling behind him, and couldn’t help but tremble with fear and sweat.

He turned around abruptly, faced the road he came from, and shouted to the people behind him: “Go away, I’ll break.”

He is a fire-type power user, suitable for large-area attacks, just right to deal with ant colonies. On the narrow drawbridge, the ant colony would certainly not be able to break through his wall of fire.

But he overlooked one thing, under high winds, the fire’s attack and control will be multiplied.

“I’m staying too,” said the second-to-last squid. He is a wind-type power user, and the environment is favorable to him, but once he launches an attack, the suspension bridge will shake more violently. While killing the enemy, it will also cause unexpected danger to his own members.

At this time, the ant colony was only 100 meters away from everyone, and it took less than two minutes to catch up.

Squid and Firefox go into battle at the same time.

At this moment, a clear voice came: “Squid, Firefox, don’t fight, just cut off the suspension bridge!”

“What?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone showed a look of astonishment. Cut off the suspension bridge? Isn’t this self-defeating?

“Trust me, cut off the suspension bridge.” Qianli shouted again, “Everyone hold on to the wire rope, we will just swing over.”

“What are you kidding?” the ice snake shouted, “it hits the cliff at such a speed, and you will be seriously injured if you don’t die.”

“It’s too late to explain, squid, hurry up!”

The squid gritted its teeth and stared sharply. One hand firmly hooked the wire rope, the other hand gathered energy, and then raised the weapon and slashed at the chain.

The wire is so strong that it only opens a small gap with a single blow. The squid then continued to slash at the same place.

Firefox stared blankly, not knowing how to react for a moment.

“I’m coming!” Chijiu passed a few people, leaned over to the squid, gave Firefox a cold look, “Get out of the way, hurry up, I won’t save you later.”

After speaking, he picked up his weapon and charged a blow, only to hear a clang, and the steel cable on the other side was broken.

“Crazy, crazy!” Firefox muttered.

The Fool’s trust in Zero seems to have reached a blind level, and they dare to do such a crazy act!

In this case, the people in the dark pavilion are also unable to organize, and can only firmly grasp the wire rope and prepare to resist the collision.

Pairs of green eyes gradually emerged from the darkness, like ghosts in hell, and the sound of their limbs rubbing their horns made one’s hair stand on end.

A black tide came, less than five meters away from Chijiu and others.

“Everyone, get ready, break!” Chijie shouted, slashing the last knife before the ant colony came up. Just listening to the sound of “banging”, the long suspension bridge was cut off, and the ant colony poured down in front of Chijiu’s eyes, staggering with his hanging figure.

Everyone held on to the rope tightly and slammed towards the cliff, the wind blew past their ears like a knife.

“Ah—” Several people let out a shrill cry, waiting for the imminent violent impact, but strangely, the suspension bridge crossed the lowest point and began to swing to the other side, as if there was a void ahead.

When it swings to a certain height, the suspension bridge falls back. After swaying several times, it finally stops slowly, only swaying lightly in the wind.

“Okay, everyone be careful, let’s climb up.” The deck of the suspension bridge is layered, composed of special metal plates, which are both light and strong. There are gaps between the layers, just like a ladder, just suitable for climbing. climb. Not to mention the supernatural beings, even Zuo Mian, who is an ordinary person, can’t be beaten. The only thing to be careful about is the gust of wind that blows from time to time.

When everyone climbed up the corridor, they all sat or lay down as if they had collapsed, without any image.

“Isn’t this too exciting?” Bai Shi patted his chest and said while panting.

Others are also speechless and feel the same way.

After a short rest, Sha Scorpio couldn’t help but ask: “Zero, how do you know that the suspension bridge won’t hit the cliff? It’s dark at night, and even the vision of the spiritual awakener can’t see that far?”

Qianli said indifferently: “Have you not looked at the map carefully before? Tianmohai Cliff is a funnel-shaped shape that looks like a dangling sky in the clouds and mist, and all have the name of Hanging City.”

Everyone was stunned.

However, a few thoughtful people realized that it wasn’t just a matter of the map. In such an emergency situation, this little girl could be so calm, make the right judgment, and act boldly or Speaking of… crazy, even cutting down the suspension bridge can be done, and it has to be convincing.

In addition, before that, I guessed that there was danger ahead from just a little clue, and decided to change the route. Even if her guesses are wrong, other people’s evaluation of her will only be higher than lower.

No wonder she was able to destroy dungeons in crisis and rescue so many people successfully, this calm wisdom is indeed very accessible.

“Okay, everyone find a safe place to rest well. After replenishing your stamina tomorrow, go round and kill the ant colony.” Sand Scorpion said to his companions.

Everyone else responded.

The next day, the members of the two teams gathered together, and the sand scorpion asked, “Zero, will you go back to the lower floor with us?”

“No, we will continue to move up and work separately to speed up the task process.” This was what they negotiated and decided yesterday. The ant colonies during the day are basically hidden in their nests. As long as they are well prepared, it is not difficult to trap them. .

“Alright then, let’s leave for the time being, see you on the top floor.” Sha Scorpion greeted the Fools and left with his own people.

After walking tens of meters, Qianli suddenly said: “When passing through the moat above, remember to wear a gas mask. The poisonous fog may have dissipated during the day, but just in case, it is better to be cautious.”

“Thank you.” Sha Scorpion and others expressed sincere expressions, and even Ice Snake, who had an opinion about Qianli at the beginning, also accepted this feeling.

The edge of the suspended city is the entrance to the moat. The members of the dark pavilion entered the starting pavilion through the translucent passage. After walking out of the starting pavilion, everyone was immediately shocked by the scene on this floor. They saw that the ground was full of carrion and broken bones, which merged with the soil into a ball. , the original light gray luminous velvet has turned red, which looks extra coquettish in the sun.

The legendary starry sky is shrouded in a strong sense of death, turning it into a deadly place.

“This place is indeed occupied by the turbid luminous velvet…” Sand Scorpion murmured.

Only then did the people in the Dark Pavilion truly realize that they had managed to escape the catastrophe very narrowly. If it hadn’t been prevented by zero, last night would have been their doom.

This kindness is really heavy.

Just who is planning this? The other party is simply going to put them to death. Is the whole thing aimed at the organization or the individual? Was this mission just a pretense from the start?
