Chapter 2353: Someone sacrificed
After arranging Su Lei and Lao Yan, Zhao Xu took Su Rou, Professor Liu and Zhu Linlin and continued towards the "Valley of Hundred Corpses".
Along the way, the four of them never encountered danger again.
As evening approached, it began to rain lightly.
The weather in the mountains is like this, it's often sunny and rainy.
Zhao Xu also found a cave as a place to spend the night.
Hanging up the camping lantern, the cave lights up.
The four of them left Su Lei and Lao Yan behind and went into battle lightly, which was much more efficient than before.
Zhao Xu set up a pot and cooked several portions of hot noodle soup.
Being able to eat hot noodles under such difficult conditions is definitely more precious than having a big meal.
While the four of them were eating, Zhao Xu asked Professor Liu: "Professor Liu, how much do you know about the situation in the Valley of Hundred Corpses?"
Professor Liu shook his head and said: "The Valley of Hundred Corpses can be called the death zone of Wushan Mountain. Not only humans, but also animals and birds dare not approach there easily. As Su Lei said, I have also heard of Hundred Corpses
At the end of the valley, there is a place called Wangyue Creek. If it is true as the legend says, then the ancient civilization in the Dawu Mountain area is likely to be discovered in Wangyue Creek."
"Professor Liu, there are still five people in your scientific expedition team who have not been found."
"Yes!" Professor Liu sighed and said: "No matter whether they are alive or dead, they will eventually have to be seen alive or dead to see their corpses! But it will be difficult for me and Linlin to find them. Mr. Zhao,
Sorry to trouble you."
"I will do my best to help you!" Zhao Xu said.
At this time, Zhao Xu's ears twitched.
He faintly heard the monkey's "squeak!" barking and frantic sounds.
Hearing this, Zhao Xu said to the three people in the cave: "You guys stay here, I'll go out first!" After saying that, he jumped down from the cave, jumped a few times quickly, and swept out like a gust of wind.
In the forest, there were two animals jumping up and down quickly.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be the "golden monkey" that had been clinging to him before. In addition, there was a lynx.
Zhao Xu saw that the lynx was chasing the golden monkey, and he followed the two little things and ran quickly for a while.
Then, he bent down and picked up a stone.
He looked at the lynx and threw it towards the lynx.
The lynx's movements were particularly flexible, and it missed the target.
But the prey that reached its mouth was immediately available, so it was unwilling to give up on the golden monkey and pursued the golden monkey again.
The golden monkey jumped down from the tree, quickly jumped towards Zhao Xu, and quickly jumped on Zhao Xu's shoulder.
A pair of small eyes turned nimbly, as if he had someone to support him and was no longer afraid of the lynx.
Zhao Xu pulled out the fish intestine sword, stood with the sword, and stared at the lynx in the distance.
The lynx barked several times and seemed to be very afraid of Zhao Xu.
After calling a few times, he fled without a trace in an instant.
Zhao Xu took the golden monkey and slowly walked back towards the cave where he lived.
When Su Rou saw that Zhao Xu had brought back the "golden monkey" from before, she asked in surprise: "Hey, why did you meet this monkey again?"
Zhao Xu explained: "This little guy was chased by a lynx just now. I heard its cry and went over to rescue it."
This golden monkey is already very familiar with Su Rou, Zhu Linlin and Professor Liu. It seems to like Su Rou and Zhu Linlin very much and plays with them naughtily.
The incident of nearly being eaten by a lynx did not affect this "little guy"'s mood at all.
With the addition of this golden monkey in the cave, the atmosphere became joyful.
At night, there were strange screams coming from outside from time to time.
While sleeping until midnight, Zhao Xu was suddenly awakened by the sound of running.
It's almost two o'clock in the middle of the night, why is there anyone running outside?
Zhao Xu woke up Su Rou and asked her to look at the entrance of the cave, saying that there was something going on outside and he would go take a look.
Su Rou nodded and took out the gun.
After Zhao Xu left, Professor Liu and Zhu Linlin also woke up one after another.
After learning about the situation, the three of them guarded the entrance of the cave and did not dare to sleep again.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Zhao Xu quickly swept towards the running man.
I took shelter behind a tree, and not long after waiting, a short man ran over in a panic.
Zhao Xu recognized that this person was one of the members of the "Scientific Expedition Team".
But he did not show up immediately and was secretly following the member of the scientific expedition team.
This scientific expedition member was the young man named "Lu Qing" after he separated from Lao Yan.
He hid behind a tree, with a panicked look on his face, breathing heavily.
Zhao Xu squatted for a while, but didn't see anything chasing him, so he showed up and walked towards Lu Qing.
Lu Qing, perhaps because he was nervous, did not recognize Zhao Xu, so he waved the hiking stick in his hand and hit Zhao Xu on the head with the stick.
Zhao Xu grabbed the fallen hiking stick and said to Lu Qing: "Don't be nervous, I am your friend."
Lu Qing took a closer look and recognized it was Zhao Xu.
"You... aren't you the one who helped us repair the car?" Lu Qing said breathlessly.
Zhao Xu said "Yeah!", nodded, and said, "My name is Zhao Xu!"
Then he said to Lu Qing: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Qing explained to Zhao Xu anxiously: "Mr. Zhao, there is a murderous demon here. We have to leave here quickly."
"A murderous demon?"
"Yes! It's a man wearing a straw hat and wielding a sickle. We already have a scientific expedition team member who died in the hands of this man."
"You come with me first!" Zhao Xu said to Lu Qing.
Lu Qing nodded and followed Zhao Xu to the cave where he lived.
When Lu Qing saw Professor Liu and Zhu Linlin there, he cried with joy. He hugged Professor Liu and cried bitterly.
"Professor Liu, Song and him..."
"What happened to Song and him?" Professor Liu's heart sank and he asked anxiously.
"Song and he died!"
After hearing the news of "Song He"'s death, Professor Liu shook his body.
Zhu Linlin covered her mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief.
She and "Song He" were the last to join the scientific expedition team.
This time, it was the two of them who were conducting the second scientific research mission.
Unexpectedly, Song He had already died.
"Is the place where he died far from here?" Professor Liu asked.
"It's about five kilometers from here."
"Take me there!"
"Professor Liu, you can't do it! There is a murderous demon there. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I would have died in this man's hands."
Lu Qing still felt frightened when he recalled it.
Zhao Xu spoke up and said to Lu Qing: "Brother Lu Qing, please take us there! As long as I protect you, there will be no problem."
Lu Qing looked at Professor Liu.
