C34 The Cave Was Filled with Terror
Chen Tianming was also shocked by the sudden sound. It was midnight in the dark cave. The sound was like the sound of a ghost.
How could ghosts appear in this immortal cave? Chen Tianming mustered his courage and looked around for the source of the voice.
"Hehehehe..." Another burst of playful laughter was heard. This time, Chen Tianming could tell that the source of the sound was from the deepest part of the cave.
He knew that there was something strange in the depths of the cave. Chen Tianming immediately stopped moving forward. After a while, there was no longer any sound coming from the depths of the cave. Chen Tianming calmed his mind and carefully thought about what this sound came from. But soon, Chen Tianming seemed to know the answer, and his face revealed a look of enlightenment.
Chen Tianming thought of something that could also make such a sound. This thing was the hole on the mountain wall. Chen Tianming had read an excerpt book that described the principles of the Ghost Forest. In fact, there was no such thing as a ghost in the Ghost Forest. It was just a hole in the tree. The wind blew through the hole and produced a strange sound. Chen Tianming used the same logic to verify his thoughts.
After he thought it through, Chen Tianming continued forward. However, he was still careful. After all, the guess on the mountain wall was his own guess. Perhaps there was really something strange about it.
"Hehehe..." The sound of laughter rang out once again. Chen Tianming was prepared this time and did not receive much of a shock.
"Big brother, look, this brat actually didn't scare me. Hehehe, interesting." A sharp voice came from the depths of the cave.
This time, Chen Tianming heard it clearly. It was a voice, not a ghost's voice. It was not the sound of the mountain breeze blowing through the empty cave on the mountain wall. From the meaning of the voice, it seemed that the laughter in front of them was also from this person.
Was there anyone else in this Ghost Valley other than him?
Could it be that there were other people who entered the Ghost Valley Cave earlier than him?
However, this idea was quickly rejected by Chen Tianming, because he had been staying at the top of the mountain all the way until midnight. During this period of time, no one had ever come down from the cliff, and it could not have been yesterday or earlier. Because in order to go down, he had to leave a rope outside, but he didn't see any rope or anything like that. Even if he went down a few days ago, he hadn't heard anyone mention it. After all, the Ghost Exploring Cave wasn't a small matter.
Could it be that there were other entrances to the Ghost Valley Cave?
Chen Tianming thought. Before he could figure out what was going on, he did not dare to act rashly.
It was still that sharp voice. Big Brother, look, that kid doesn't dare to come in anymore. Then let's go out. "
"Okay." The reply was very cold.
These two voices, no matter which one it was, were very uncomfortable to hear.
Footsteps gradually came from the cave. Judging from the sounds, it was the footsteps of two people. Clearly, it was the footsteps of the two people who had spoken just now. Moreover, the footsteps were getting closer and closer to him. It seemed that these two people were walking towards him.
As long as it was a person, they would be curious and inexplicably afraid of the unknown. Under such circumstances, most people would give up their curiosity and choose to be afraid. Chen Tianming was no exception. Judging from the voices of those two people, it was certain that they were not good things.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer to him. What Chen Tianming could think of was running. The farther he ran, the better.
Chen Tianming turned around and ran towards the cave entrance. The footsteps were still some distance away from him. It would take some time for him to catch up to him. As long as he could get to the entrance of the cave and remove the rope that was tied to the tree, he would be able to escape from the entrance of the cave and the potential danger.
Chen Tianming thought it was easy, but could he really escape?
"Yo, hey hey, you still want to run? That's a pretty good idea. Since you're here, then stay." That sharp voice instantly came from behind. Chen Tianming was also scared silly. Was this a human's speed?
A skinny and claw-like hand was placed on Chen Tianming's shoulder. Chen Tianming didn't dare move at all because he felt a strange and cold aura being emitted from this skinny hand.
Chen Tianming knew that he couldn't run away, so he could only choose to face it. Turning his head, Chen Tianming finally saw what this sharp-tongued person looked like. His hair was disheveled, and his face was very thin. His entire body was like a piece of dry wood, and his clothes were very smooth. However, the clothes on his body were a bit like a uniform, and he looked to be in his thirties.
"It's a good thing he's a human, not a ghost..."
Chen Tianming thought to himself. When he turned around, he was still worried that he would see a monster.
"So it's a little guy. He learned to explore treasures at such a young age. Hehehe, how funny!" The voice of this excessively thin young man was sharp and piercing.
"Oh? Is he a little devil?" At this moment, a middle-aged man slowly walked out of the cave. He was wearing the same clothes as the thin man. He had short, sharp hair, and the outline of his face was very clear. His burly figure gave off an imposing aura as he stood there.
"Big Brother, take a look. Hehehe. He's not that old, but he has quite the guts." The thin man said to the middle-aged man behind him. Then, the fingers on Chen Tianming's shoulder turned into claws. Chen Tianming was lifted up without much effort.
Suddenly he felt a huge pain on his shoulder. Then he was lifted up by a huge force. Chen Tianming couldn't help the pain and whispered, "You, what do you want to do?"
"Hahaha, what do you think we want to do?" The thin man turned Chen Tianming's body around and said with a laugh.
"Hsiao Ying, give him to me. Go out and take a look. Destroy all traces of him." The middle-aged man said with a commanding tone.
"Yes, big brother." The thin man called Hsiao Ying seemed to be afraid of the middle-aged man. He threw Chen Tianming in front of the middle-aged man and turned towards the entrance of the cave.
"Do you want to walk by yourself, or do you want me to carry you?" The middle-aged man looked at Chen Tianming, who had fallen in front of his feet, and said coldly. The meaning in his tone was very clear. You can't run, you can't run either.
The middle-aged man's eyes didn't seem to contain a trace of emotion.
At this point, Chen Tianming didn't expect to run away. After all, this Ghost Valley Cave was located in a place that didn't belong to the sky or the ground. Moreover, the thin man called Hsiao Ying seemed to have gone out to destroy the traces.
Now, Chen Tianming's only hope was to have a chance to take out the Soaring Heavens Dragon Seal. Just like the time in Sanya City in Hainan, he released the golden dragon in the Soaring Heavens Dragon Seal because he had felt the power to look down on everything.
What Chen Tianming could count on right now was to unleash the Soaring Heavens Dragon Seal. However, he didn't know how to release the golden dragon in the Soaring Heavens Dragon Seal.
Without saying a word, Chen Tianming patted his aching shoulder and walked towards the depths of the cave with great difficulty.
