Chapter 1005: Ghost hitting the wall?
The originally quiet forest was filled with different sounds.
There seemed to be a storm brewing in the air. The birds and beasts were all scared and fled away. The forest soon became quiet again, so quiet that it was scary!
However, this group of Prince An's subordinates, who were called soldiers but were actually bandits, had no idea of the impending danger. Relying on their large numbers, they reorganized their formation.
Two or three hundred people led by Chen Qingcai were exploring the way ahead, and the Grand Commander Ma Changhai followed behind with nearly a thousand officers and soldiers, continuing to move towards Qingshui Village in the Devil Valley.
Although Chen Qingcai wanted to perform meritorious deeds in front of the Grand Commander, he couldn't help feeling afraid after watching his companions die in front of him time and time again.
He gritted his teeth and walked in front, leading the people he brought with him, listening with their ears perked up and their eyes wide open to look around, while trembling as they walked forward.
However, after walking for a long time, it felt like an hour or two had passed, but I didn't encounter any danger.
But sometimes, the greatest danger is the absence of danger.
Ma Changhai, who was riding on a horse, gradually realized that something was wrong. He waved his hand, signaling the team behind to stop. He asked Chen Qingcai, who had gradually relaxed his vigilance and was only focused on leading the way, in a deep voice:
"Chen Qingcai, where are you taking us? How big can the Devil's Valley be? Why haven't we reached the village after walking for half a day?"
Chen Qingcai had been walking for half a day and was already exhausted and out of breath.
He wiped the sweat off his face and stood still, looking at the sun hidden in the dark clouds above his head. Only then did he realize what was going on and couldn't help but feel confused:
"Return to the Grand Commander. This is my first time in the Devil's Valley. There is only one road here. If we follow it, we should be able to enter the village."
"Then why haven't we arrived yet after walking for so long? Are you colluding with someone and want to take us somewhere else?"
"No, no, no, I dare not! Grand Commander, I really don't know what's going on! I asked the people outside, and they said that once we enter the valley, we just need to follow the road. This road leads directly to the village! Maybe... maybe this is not the Devil's Valley yet, and we need to go further inside?"
Ma Changhai was very dissatisfied with Chen Qingcai's words.
"It's almost two hours. Do you think the Devil Valley is that far away? People from Qingshui Village go to the city to open shops every day. Do you think it's possible that it's so far away?"
Chen Qingcai couldn't say anything to refute. He also felt that something was wrong, but he really didn't know what was going on!
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind and he slapped his thigh:
"General! I remember now! Could this be the legendary ghost wall? We may have been blinded by ghosts, so even though we have been walking for a long time, we have actually been going around in circles? There is such a saying in my hometown! By the way, I heard that to break the ghost wall, you can urinate or let someone take you away from here."
Ma Changhai glared unhappily:
"Do you see any outsiders here? There's not even a ghost!"
"Well, then let me try peeing!"
Chen Qingcai walked to the side of the road and started to urinate towards a tree.
However, just as he took off his pants and had not yet urinated after holding it for a long time, suddenly a white shadow flashed, and something jumped out of the woods and rushed towards him. His eyes blurred and he felt a sudden pain in his lower body.
"what!!!"
A shrill howl echoed through the valley, causing the snow on the surrounding trees to fall again.
Everyone saw a white shadow flash by. Before they could see clearly what it was, they saw Chen Qingcai, who was peeing while standing, suddenly fall to the ground, covering his lower body with his hands, rolling on the ground wailing.
Blood flowed from between his fingers, dyeing the white snow on the ground blood red.
"hiss!"
Everyone who saw this scene suddenly felt a chill between their legs, and their hands subconsciously covered their vital parts.
