Chapter 364: Confrontation
Lu Chen and A Tu both stared at the blood stains on the large mountain peak for a long time. Then, Lu Chen retracted his eyes, patted A Tu's head lightly with his hands, and only whispered, "Let's go."
Ah Tu glanced back at him, and then went forward without a word. Although the canyon was calm, although the two of them were still stable, the atmosphere seemed to be deeper and more depressed than before.
In contrast, Lu Chen seems to be more calm, calm and calm, and A Tu is not as happy as yesterday.
They continued to walk along this cliff path, and the canyon continued to stretch in front of them, and they still looked like they were endless.
The length of this canyon was somewhat unexpected. After walking for a long time and still not seeing the hoped exit, Lu Chen's complexion began to become a little gloomy.
In the mysterious tree hole in the seed, he has stored enough food and water, which can fully support him and Ah Tu for a long time, so he is not worried about the food. But the most worrying headache at the moment is another thing, that is, one and a half days have passed since he started entering the canyon.
The Daxue Mountain here is only three days of clear days in a year, that is to say, after half a day, that extremely violent snowstorm will flood the area again. Lu Chen still clearly remembers the snow and snow scene that he saw when he first arrived outside the gorge that day. It would be too difficult and dangerous to walk through this cliff path in that situation.
However, what is more difficult is that he has now gone so far, and it is almost impossible to go back. The so-called progress is probably the case.
Ah Tu doesn't know if he thinks so much, maybe it is unexpected, but from now on, he looks back at Lu Chen from time to time, with doubts and anxieties in his eyes, and probably wants to see if Lu Chen has returned. I mean.
Lu Chen understood the meaning of Ah Tu, but after a moment of thought, he quickly made a decision.
"Come on, Atu." He pointed towards the canyon.
Ah Tu stared at him for a moment, then suddenly it seemed like he had let go of his heart, no longer hesitating, and it seemed that even the initial pressure had disappeared, it returned to its original ease and began to move forward. Run away.
After running for a while, calling back twice, it looked like he was disappointed to urge Lu Chen to be too slow, and Lu Chen couldn't help but laughed.
Continue to move forward, and various strange scenery in this mysterious canyon gradually reveal in front of them, all kinds of strange peaks and strange rocks, steep and steep, the cliff like a sword, like a mirror, white snow dotted it, also A rare sight in the world.
But as they went deeper, Lu Chen quickly saw the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon again, and began to see more scratches of the kind he had seen before. It looks like some kind of unknown monster has climbed here, and every so often, he can vaguely see a bit of dried blood stains.
He glanced down at the dark and unclear abyss, frowned, and moved on.
This day, while walking around, and still can't see the canyon exit, there were those huge scratches to remind them that the terrible danger was everywhere, and passed slowly.
It was getting dark again.
※※※
Before the evening arrived, Lu Chen and A Tu finally found another place where they could barely rest, similar to the stone platform last night, and a slightly more spacious platform, but better than yesterday, here The stone wall was peeled off a few years ago, forming a gap recessed inwards. It was about one person wide and barely could be regarded as a small cave.
After seeing this place and watching the sky not too early, even before it was dusk, Lu Chen soon decided to stop here to rest. Walking in this unknown place is such an inexplicable heavy pressure. I know nothing about the front and can only take one step at a time.
Although Lu Chen is very calm and calm most of the time, from yesterday to the present, he has been walking on this extremely dangerous cliff path for two days, with a stone wall on his back, and an abyss under his feet. Life is in danger at all times, and even when it was resting last night, there were also mysterious and terrible monsters. He also did not sleep all night and opened his eyes until dawn.
His nerves were strained for such a long time, even though he had always been tough and had his way, but still felt a deep exhaustion. So after choosing a place to rest, he greeted Ah Tu, and curled up into the half-hole.
It is said to be half a small cave, because the stone wall is only slightly recessed, at most it is that the body is leaning in, but the hands and feet are still mostly out. But Rao is so, this kind of terrain still makes Lu Chen feel a bit relieved.
Ah Tu ran over, looked at him curiously, and then looked left and right, and finally looked at the opposite stone wall.
There was a huge scratch there, which was cut off from the cliff of the mountain peak and exposed in front of their eyes, about a dozen feet away.
Ah Tu watched for a while, and then shrank. Like yesterday, he lay beside Lu Chen again. Lu Chen smiled, hugged Ah Tu, and watched the sky slowly, one person and one dog silent. Came down.
It's getting dark, and night is here again.
※※※
Sometimes, people will suddenly feel a small, inexplicably aware of the fragility of life, and the world is so vast, the heavens and the earth are so magical. This feeling will always follow a person's life, it will always come out at a certain lonely moment in the middle of the night, or when you look up at the vast sky alone.
Lu Chen was in the dark, watching the dark sky silently.
At that moment, he suddenly remembered many things long ago.
When he was young, he used to firmly believe in a conviction that he did not hesitate to be born and die. That conviction was the only basis for his survival in the most difficult and sinister days. Until today, he has not wavered How many.
But there are many, many things. He used to be unforgettable, he felt painful, and thought that he would never forget, but when he suddenly remembered this night, he realized that ... he hadn't remembered for a long time.
Time is like a tide, always washing his memory over and over in silence, diluting those pains and obscuring those past events.
It turns out that emotions will fade after all, whether it is hatred or love, after a long time, will it only leave a shadow of indifference?
Lu Chen quietly looked up at the dark sky, and in his memory, stared at those silhouettes of the past.
Then there was a whistling sound, echoing in the dark abyss, and the dark tide surging again.
A Tu's body shuddered and leaned closer to him. Lu Chen held his body, just like yesterday, lowered his body to cover it from the darkness.
Ah Tu calmed down.
Darkness howled.
In the night, the large and terrible dark shadow appeared again, tearing the black night and the mountain violently. As it crossed the top of the mountain and roared against the night sky, the earth seemed to tremble as a result.
Despite his experience last night, Lu Chen was intimidated by this unusually powerful breath and held his breath subconsciously.
That dark shadow may be the king of the night. After roaring, it may turn to look for food, but at this time, suddenly, the mountains are silent, and all the sounds suddenly fall to silence.
The dark shadow also seemed to stop, and Huo Ran turned back and looked into the distance.
Lu Chen seemed to feel something and looked up. At that moment, his heartbeat suddenly increased suddenly.
I saw, in the dark night, across the dark canyon and the abyss, across the dark canyon and the abyss, another huge body shadow slowly appeared on the opposite hill.
Lu Chen couldn't see the outline of the outline, but could only see the two giant eyes lit up in the darkness, green and deep, with an indescribable breath of death.
It was cruel, fierce, to tear everything up and devour everything, even when seeing the beast of the Dark King.
Ah Tu in his arms suddenly shakes himself, then raises his head and glances into the shadow above the mountain.
