Human Shackles

By this time, it was completely dark, and Lao Cai led everyone to an open space to set up camp. They had long been accustomed to spending the night in the forest. They brought tents with them, raised a fire, and lit mugwort used to drive away mosquitoes.

Several people's expressions were not very good. The number of rats that they suddenly encountered today was so huge that it was almost impossible to kill them all. Once they left the vine area, they would definitely destroy the balance of the forest.

Lao Cai said worriedly: "No, I have to go back and talk to the defense officer. We must find out where these strange rats come from."

"Well, I'll ask Ah Wei to go back with you tomorrow." Yao Guangfa nodded.

After eating something hastily, and after assigning the order of the night watch, Luo Kai walked around in a circle. He came back and got into the tent without feeling any danger. Lu Qing was already asleep inside. She was too tired today.

Luo Kai sat cross-legged in the tent, thinking that he might have to go back. In this vast forest, all the information that humans can generate will be covered up. Looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack, unless thousands of people are mobilized. People search mountains on a large scale. Su Wenlin has this ability, but he does not. This is the difference between an individual and a whole.

The next day, Lao Cai and Yao Guangfa's cousin Zhang Wei went back first. The remaining four people were still wandering in the forest looking for them. Luo Kai tried hard to stimulate his sense of smell, but the smell of flowers and plants on Granny Hua was different from the various kinds of things in the forest. The smell of plants can easily get mixed up with food. I searched for it for another day and found nothing.

On the third day, the food and water they brought with them were almost exhausted. Yao Guangfa suggested: "Brother Luo, there is a Changsnake Valley not far from here. It is rich in many precious herbs. The old man you are looking for must come to Misty Mountain." We’re also here to look for medicinal herbs, how about we go take a look?”

Luo Kai nodded in agreement: "Okay, thank you for your hard work these two days."

Yao Guangfa hurriedly said: "It's not hard, it's not hard. Being able to make friends like you, Brother Luo, is a blessing that we will never be able to cultivate in several lifetimes."

Passing through a swamp, Yao Guangfa led the way to a long and narrow valley. The valley was shrouded in mist and hazy, and he could only see four or five meters around him.

"This is the Long Snake Valley. Legend has it that it is the place where an extremely huge strange snake died. There are many venomous snakes in it. Be careful after entering."

Yao Guangfa and the two picked up two wooden sticks from the ground and beat them along the way into the valley. This was to drive away poisonous insects that might be in front of them.

I don't know why, but from the moment he entered the valley, a layer of goosebumps rose up on Luo Kai's skin. This valley seemed to have a unique magnetic field frequency stimulating his body.

After walking for a while, Yao Guangfa stopped and turned around and said, "Brother Luo, the visibility here is too low. How about we look for it separately."

"Okay, then be careful. If you are in danger and call for help, I will come to find you."

Yao Guangfa's expression suddenly changed for some reason, and he forced a smile and said: "It's okay, there are many venomous snakes here. Generally, venomous snakes will not attack humans."

Seeing Yao Guangfa and the others disappearing into the mist, Luo Kai felt slightly doubtful, but he didn't think too much about it. Yao Guangfa and others had worked very hard in the past few days, which reduced his dislike of Su Wenlin a lot.

It was very quiet in the valley, not even a sound of wind, only the rustle of reptiles moving through the grass.

Women are more afraid of snakes and rats. Lu Qing pulled Luo Kai's sleeve and whispered: "There is a snake."

Luo Kai said softly: "It's okay. Generally speaking, snakes will not attack large animals unless they actively provoke them and they are running away."

In fact, the reason why they rarely encountered animals in the past two days was because of Luo Kai's presence. Animals are far more sensitive than humans. Some can even feel the magnetic field of living beings. The more powerful the living beings are, the more powerful they are. The magnetic field becomes larger and larger. Luo Kai is now walking in the forest like a humanoid ferocious beast. All animals are afraid to avoid it. Of course, if they break into the nest of certain animals, they will fight hard, such as the one they encountered the day before yesterday. Weird rat.

As he walked, Luo Kai suddenly felt that something was not right, because he actually felt sleepy, and as soon as this thought arose, his whole head was filled with strong sleepiness, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart, and he hurriedly He bit the tip of his tongue and forced his heartbeat to drive out the sleepiness. Lu Qing beside him had already fallen asleep leaning on his shoulder.

"Lu Qing, wake up."

Luo Kai looked at her breathing with a gloomy face. Everything was normal, but she fell into a deep sleep.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, and even the sound of air movement disappeared.

Luo Kai put Lu Qing on his shoulders and retreated towards the original path. After taking two steps, he staggered and almost fell. The sleepiness that was getting heavier and heavier kept coming, forcing him to increase his heart rate crazily and fly towards the entrance in big strides. Run.

…

At the edge of the valley, Yao Guangfa and the middle-aged man named Li Shuncai stared at the valley with deep expressions. After a long time, Yao Guangfa sighed and said: "It seems that he can't get out."

"Hmph, you're soft-hearted." Li Shuncai snorted coldly, his voice hoarse and his expression cold, changing his original dull image.

"Well, after all, he saved our lives, and the young master told us to try to save the girl's life as much as possible."

"You have also seen that they have never separated, and there is no chance to spare the life of the little girl. Don't worry, once this is done, the master will not treat you badly. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com "

Yao Guangfa hesitated and said, "Do you really think that Changmian Valley can kill that young man?"

Li Shuncai paused for a moment, recalling the sharp sword light in front of Luo Kai and his heroic skills. Is it really that easy for such a character to die? He said with some unconfidence: "Didn't you say that no one has ever been able to come out of the Everlasting Sleep Valley?" ?”

"I don't know, but what if he is not dead? You and I will definitely not be able to get along with each other. Even the young master from the Three-Eyed Clan will be in trouble."

Li Shuncai thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's stay here. I'll have people bring explosives over and bury them at the mouth of the valley. If he really comes out alive, I'll blow him up with explosives."

"No, in that case we will have no excuse at all, and I doubt that even the explosives will be able to kill him.

…

Luo Kai was unable to run at this time. He thought he could run out of the valley in an instant, but the road in front of him suddenly became long and endless. He had been running for more than an hour, but he seemed to be wandering in place.

Sitting down on the ground with Lu Qing in his arms, he tried hard to muster up his mental will to fight against the powerful sleepiness. The fog everywhere not only affected his senses, but even his memory seemed to be affected. Pictures passed through his mind like a slideshow. Some of the scenes are his own, and some seem to be not his. If he continues, he will definitely have a schizophrenia.

He gritted his teeth and retracted his consciousness into his own small universe, blocking his breathing. Even his pores were shrunk and closed. His mental power formed an invisible barrier around him, almost cutting off all contact with the outside world. Only then did he feel slightly sleepy. alleviate.

The confused consciousness gradually returned to clarity. When he opened his eyes, Lu Qing's eyelids were beating in his arms. His snow-white forehead was covered with large beads of sweat. His expression was painful, as if he was having a nightmare.
