C179 (1/2)

The moment I fell to the ground, a person's figure directly popped out from the ground! Furthermore, his hand was tightly grabbing onto my ankle!

Seeing this, I immediately shouted out in fright! When Dazhi turned his head and saw the person who had emerged from the ground, he immediately raised the military shovel in his hand without saying a word. Dong Wan'er also raised the steel knife in her hand in surprise!

”Don't be agitated! It's me! ”

Only after hearing Duan Hong's voice did I start to size up the terracotta soldier before me in shock!

After he wiped off the mud on his face and changed into the normal Duan Hong, I patted my chest and let out a sigh of relief.

”What are you doing? Why would he bury himself in the ground when he had nothing better to do? It almost scared me to death! ”

Seeing me blaming him, Duan Hong's face immediately revealed a guilty expression. ”I'm sorry!”

After saying that, Duan Hong removed my foot that was stepping on his vitals. He then looked at me with a pained expression and said, ”You all have witnessed the power of that white-furred zombie. I was forced to do this.”

”Hey!” Can't you do anything to those white furred zombies buried in the ground? ”

After saying that, the large board laid down curiously in the hole formed by Duan Hong after he stood up, using his hands to dig at the mud on the side to cover himself!

”This is the secret technique of the Unloading Ridge Sect. They can use the aura of the earth to conceal the presence of humans so that they won't be discovered by those things.”

”Yes, for the sake of safely passing through those buildings like the yurt, I can only do this!”

After hearing the conversation between Dong Wan'er and Duan Hong and looking at the densely packed buildings, I couldn't help but frown.

He's f * cking safe now, but what about us?

Duan Hong seemed to have seen through my thoughts as he walked towards me and patted my shoulder, ”Don't worry, your two friends lost a lot of Yang energy due to injuries. As long as they don't go near the house where the corpse devil is hidden, their Yang energy isn't enough to attract the attention of other people.”

”What about me?”

”How do you know which house is the corpse devil?” ”I don't know,” I said.

Hearing my words, Duan Hong stroked the stubble on his chin and smiled as he looked at me, ”There's no need for us to worry about that. With Young Miss Dong here, all of this is just a piece of cake!”

While we were talking, the white-haired corpse devil had been hidden in the buildings. To be honest, as long as it doesn't come looking for us, I don't want to provoke it!

When I think about those squirming white fur, I can't help but feel a chill in my heart. Furthermore, if someone is injured, I don't even know how much blood I'll bleed!

Afterwards, we packed up the few things we had left and got ourselves a decent pair of pants for the big board. Under Dong Wan'er's lead, we walked into the yurt shaped building complex.

Just like what Duan Hong said, Dong Wan'er could clearly identify the place where the corpse devil was hidden. Furthermore, when I passed by dangerous places, the wooden cow in my hand would react.

Thus, we walked all the way to the heart of the buildings before stopping.

”The people who set up this place seemed to have set up the last line of defense. The few buildings in front of us have all been set up with corpse devils! You guys wait first, I'll go to the rooftop to take a look, and see if there's any place that we can safely pass through! ”

After saying that, Dong Wan'er climbed up to the roof of a nearby building and started looking around.

Not long after, Dong Wan'er jumped down from the roof and led us back the way we came.

”Why are we going back?”

”Because we went into a pocket! If we want to safely pass through this defense line, we have to go back a bit. After we bypass this pocket, there will be a gap. From there, we can go our way. ”

However, just as Dong Wan'er finished her sentence, I suddenly felt the wooden cow in my hands heat up again!

How could this be? We went back the same way we came, so there shouldn't be any danger, but the wooden cow in my hand can't possibly be lying!

Thinking of this, I immediately told everyone to stop and started to vigilantly observe the surroundings for any movements.

At this moment, a whistling sound could be heard from above us! He raised his head and saw that it was the white-furred corpse devil! And it was falling right over my head!

Seeing this, Dong Wan'er immediately grabbed onto my waist and carried me to the side like a child! After the white-furred corpse devil fell to the ground, Dong Wan'er unsheathed the steel saber behind her without a second word. She and Duan Hong immediately rushed forward and started slashing wildly!

In the blink of an eye, the white-furred corpse devil was torn apart by the two of them. However, those severed arms and heads were still twisting around, as though they were still trying to attack us!

But when they dismembered that white-furred corpse devil, the wooden bull on my arm didn't stop!

Seeing this, I couldn't help but lean towards Dong Wan'er worriedly, ”You've made it this bad, can it still attack us?”
