Chapter 856: The Found Corpse
Chapter 856: The Found Corpse
After taking a look, she found that Chen Yile was not far from her, also lying in the sand pile.
"Chen Yile, you fell down too? Haha, so are we brothers in distress?"
Li Xixi was about to play a joke on Chen Yile when a depressed voice came from not far behind her: "You two are in the same boat, but what about me?"
When I turned around, I saw that it was Yan Zhen who spoke.
Just now he was concentrating on checking the magic circle, but his eyes went dark and he fell down.
Until now, Yan Zhen is still struggling with this issue.
"This is so unfair! How come someone pulled the ladder out of our way just when I was about to see the key point?"
Seeing Yan Zhen say this, Chen Yile couldn't help laughing.
"Your analogy of pulling out the ladder is quite good. That's exactly what I felt just now, like kicking into empty air in the middle of the Yangtze River."
However, since he was here, Chen Yile quickly gave instructions to his two partners.
"Don't complain, let's check it out quickly. What on earth is this place?"
After checking, I found that this was a large area of sandy land.
Li Xixi couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"That's not right. When we fell just now, shouldn't we have landed in the underground river? How come we are now in a pile of sand?"
Chen Yile frowned, and after a moment of deep thought, he suddenly understood and began to explain, "The underground river you want to see is probably still above us. How long did it take us to fall? It didn't feel short to me. An underground river couldn't possibly be this deep..."
Li Xixi nodded, agreeing with Chen Yile's explanation.
At this moment, she looked around again and couldn't help but become interested.
"This place is truly a different world. Who would have thought there would be so many sand piles here?"
"Oh, what's all the fuss about."
"You don't still want to play here, do you?" Chen Yile was speechless.
His idea was that since he had come here by accident, he would search the place.
In order to avoid wasting time, he opened his spiritual eyes again, released a spiritual sense, and looked out.
After looking around, although his sense of direction was still not so clear, Chen Yile saw a direction that seemed to lead to another world.
"Let's go over there and see what's going on."
As she followed Chen Yile, Li Xixi asked in confusion, "Yile, what do you see in this direction?"
Hearing the question, Chen Yile began to explain.
"I mainly saw this side, and there were other buildings. Also, there was a mysterious aura lingering around."
He saw the buildings with his spiritual eyes.
As for the mysterious aura, Chen Yile sensed it using the gold and silver marks in his palms.
Three people flew up.
Chen Yile was flying in front with a sword, while Li Xixi and Yan Zhen were on his left and right, acting as his big protectors, and swooped directly forward.
Soon after, they saw that the space in front of them became extremely narrow.
The place they came to now was a huge underground cave with different heights and sizes, but it had become narrow now.
Li Xixi accompanied Chen Yile and sped forward, asking him puzzledly.
"Yile, are you seeing things? Are there really any buildings in this place?"
At this moment, Chen Yile, who was flying on a sword in front, had already stopped. With a smile on his face, he pointed forward and said, "Isn't this it?"
After seeing it, Li Xixi almost laughed out loud: "Yile, I didn't expect you to make such a joke. Is this also considered a building?"
Li Xixi saw that at this place, the underground space was less than 5 meters high, but there was an entrance similar to a cave on one of the walls.
Seeing that Chen Yile didn't answer, Li Xixi continued to laugh and said, "If you say so, doesn't that mean that all the caves in the world can be called buildings?"
Chen Yile was not in the mood to joke with the other party.
"Okay, Xixi, since we've come to this place, let's search it first. Don't forget that we entered this yin-yang junction area to find something."
Seeing Chen Yile start to chatter again, Li Xixi burst into laughter.
"Of course I'm thinking about looking for something, but this place is so secluded, it's like a paradise, to be frank. Do you think the fragments of the Broken Soul Monument would be here?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Chen Yile was also helpless: "I didn't think much of it, but we should search every place we go to carefully."
"Hmph, I think you are taking things for granted." Li Xixi snorted coldly.
Chen Yile was also helpless: "How dare you say that there is no discovery in this place?"
"Yile, there is still a corpse here."
Hearing Yan Zhen's loud shout and the discovery of corpses not far away, Chen Yile did not dare to delay and quickly rushed in his direction.
When Li Xixi heard that the body had been found, she hurriedly followed Chen Yile and flew over.
At this moment, Chen Yile had already seen a corpse lying on the ground not far from the hole in the wall.
However, the clothes on this corpse had long since disappeared, and the bones had begun to weather.
Li Xixi was greatly surprised after seeing it.
"How long has this person been dead? Why are there signs of decay on his bones?"
Chen Yile had also seen what Li Xixi said.
But what puzzled him now was that this place was so remote. Could it be that the other party had also come here by accident?
"How did this corpse find this place before it died? Have you ever thought about this question?"
Yan Zhen expressed his opinion: "Could it be that this person sought refuge in this place, but ultimately died of old age here?"
Chen Yile nodded: "That's a possibility, but I'm more inclined to believe there are other exits nearby, and the other party didn't see us coming in from the passage we just landed in."
After Chen Yile said this, Li Xixi also agreed.
"Yes, let's check around and see if there are other passages."
After discovering the corpse, they did not make a fuss.
As for the fact that the corpse has rotted, it may have a lot to do with the dampness and darkness here.
Besides, this is not a sealed space.
Therefore, it is normal that bones decay a little faster.
After examining it for a long time, they lost interest in studying the corpse and were about to check other places, but as soon as they turned around, they saw a thick fog rising around them as if in an instant.
