Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 27: Alien invasion



Chapter 27: Alien invasion

The man in black glanced at him, and Hua Hu immediately noticed that his pupils were normal when calm, but they would turn into vertical pupils when slightly narrowed, obviously not human!

Hua Hu looked at his legs and saw that the man in black was limping on one foot.

Su Yun was blind, but he was good at sensing the qi and blood around him. He "saw" a walking dragon instead of a person, and recognized it as the black dragon that crossed the tribulation last night.

The man in black stopped and stared at Su Yun with vertical pupils. "You recognized me? How did you do it?"

If the evolved dragon clan wanted to kill people for food, they wouldn't be able to leave alive!

Su Yun calmly replied, "I recognized your true form from your qi and blood."

"Qi and blood form?"

The man in black frowned and whispered, "If you can recognize my true form from my qi and blood form, how would you deal with it?"

At this moment, Su Yun and the four little foxes heard rustling sounds, as if someone was talking in the dark, but they couldn't see any figures around!

The man in black nodded repeatedly. After a while, he said, "I understand."

Su Yun was surprised to see the man in black's qi and blood form gradually changing from a dragon to a human form!

The man in black said, "I transformed into a dragon, but from now on, call me Jiao Shu'Ao. You helped me before, so I won't harm you. There's nothing good in this house, so you should leave as soon as possible."

Su Yun asked, "Do you plan to leave here, Jiao Shu'Ao?"

The rustling sound came from Jiao Shu'Ao's side again!

The four fox demons were terrified, and Su Yun couldn't sense anyone's qi and blood around Jiao Shu'Ao!

Jiao Shu'Ao said, "I plan to go to Shuofang City. If you go there in the future, we may meet again. It's very dangerous here, and you must leave before sunset, or you won't be able to leave. We won't see each other again."

Jiao Shu'Ao left, and the fox demons watched him go. He walked tens of feet on his lame leg and came to a stone tablet, muttering to himself. The rustling sound came again, as if someone was whispering in his ear, but there was nothing there!

"There's something dirty following the whole village for food!" The foxes glanced at each other.

This situation was really strange. Jiao Shu'Ao clearly had no one around him, but he still talked to the "person" beside him from time to time.

Su Yun guessed, "Most likely, there is a spiritual being following him."

Hua Hu pondered, "The dragon spirit that saved him last night came from here. If the dragon spirit followed him, why did Jiao Shu'Ao say that it would be dangerous here after dark?"

Su Yun couldn't figure it out either. "Let's investigate first. We must leave here before dark no matter what!" Hua Hu led the way to the house, where they found no bones. Jiao Shu'Ao must be a very clean dragon. After being heavily injured last night, he still cleaned up the place and left no dust behind.They were somewhat disappointed. This place was so clean, there must not be any treasures left. It was likely that even valuable items had been taken away by Jiao Shu'Ao.

Qing Qiuyue jumped onto the bookshelf and sat upright, swaying her tail with joy. "There's still a book on the bookshelf!"

Hua Hu also jumped up and spread the book flat on the shelf, reading it word by word. "In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, a blue dragon fell in the Tian Shi Yuan market. The emperor sent the Tian Dao Institute to deal with the dragon..."

Su Yun suddenly said, "The sixth year of Yuanfeng? That's during the period of the Martial Emperor, earlier than Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ping! So the dragon fall incident should have happened 150 years ago!"

Wild Fox Master had once talked about the reign titles of the various emperors in the Yuan Shuo era, but Hua Hu and the others were not interested and didn't have much impression of it. Su Yun was used to reviewing his studies every day after school, so he remembered it very clearly.

Hua Hu continued reading, "In the first year of Taichu, the dragon coffin was opened, the dragon corpse was dissected, and its muscles, bones, veins, blood, fluids, heart, scales, pupils, whiskers, mane, claws, bones, and qi were recorded in 16 volumes... Xiaofan, search around and see if these volumes are still here!"

Several little foxes searched around but found nothing.

"Most likely, they were taken away by the villagers for dinner."

Li Xiaofan said regretfully, "Or they have decayed like other books."

Hua Hu also felt regretful and continued reading, "On the fourteenth day of the first month, it snowed, and the dragon corpse was frozen. Then they explored the fallen dragon valley, and found a strange object that fell with the dragon..."

When he read this, he looked up, showing a puzzled expression. "Strange object?"

Su Yun had a creepy feeling and said urgently, "The villagers just said that we must leave before it gets dark, or we will die! This dragon fell from the sky and was fatally injured. Could this strange object be the evil thing that killed the divine dragon? This strange object will definitely appear after dark! Hua Er Ge, take the book, we must leave here immediately!"

Hua Hu rolled up the book and jumped off the bookshelf, followed by Su Yun and three little foxes as they walked outside.

Outside, the sky had already darkened.

The sun had not yet set, but this was a valley, and the terrain was much lower than the surrounding areas, so the sunset could not reach here.

In other words, the Tomb of the Dragon and the Fallen Dragon Valley would get dark earlier than they expected!

The four of them shivered in the cold, and the air in the valley seemed to drop suddenly. Even in September, they could see white mist coming out of their nostrils when they breathed!

"It's so cold!" Hu Buping shuddered.

Everyone was silent and quickly retraced their steps. When they returned to the dragon's head, the Tomb of the Dragon suddenly shook violently, and then the sky darkened at an unusual speed, as if someone had covered their eyes!

Foxes could see in the dark, but this darkness was extremely strange. Even the four fox demons could not see the road ahead!

"Don't move, don't panic!" Su Yun lowered his voice and whispered, "This is blood and qi pressure. Our eyes have encountered external blood and qi pressure, and our pupils are locked, so we can't see around. Follow me, I remember the way here."

The hearts of the four of them were pounding, and they could hear the sound of the wind in their ears. It was the sound of blood flowing through their eardrums under pressure.

The sudden blood and qi pressure from the Tomb of the Dragon made their physical functions extremely poor. Not only did their senses malfunction, but even the technique of manipulating the Hong Furnace became extremely difficult!

Hua Hu held Su Yun's clothes, and the little foxes behind held his tail, following Su Yun outwards.Although Su Yun couldn't see, he could remember every place he had been to. Not to mention the Dragon Burial Mound, even the maze in the Ghost Market of Tianmen, he could easily find his way out after only one visit.

In his mind, the Huang Zhong constantly rotated, allowing him to accurately sense his position and know when to turn, climb, or avoid obstacles, all with incredible precision!

Just after they had climbed up the hill, Su Yun suddenly stopped.

Hua Hu quickly stopped, and the little fox behind him bumped into his butt.

"Xiao Yun, what's wrong?" Hua Hu asked in a low voice.

"The stone tablet has fallen and blocked my path."

Su Yun's voice came through, "I'm calculating the path. Strange, this stone tablet shouldn't be here..."

They had seen many stone tablets on the slopes when they came, most of which were stuck in the soil, and few had fallen down. Moreover, the stone tablets in front of them had not fallen down, and their positions were also wrong.

"Xiao Yun Ge, hurry up..."

Hu Buping said with a crying voice, trembling, "I feel someone touching the back of my head..."

Li Xiaofan had already cried out, "I feel it too. I'm scared, but it's also comfortable..."

"It's me touching you."

Qing Qiuyue was a little embarrassed, "When I'm scared, touching your heads makes me feel relieved."

Hu Buping and Li Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief. Hua Hu also breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "Xiao Yue, you're too mischievous. You scared me too. I thought someone was touching my head."

Qing Qiuyue was puzzled, "Second Brother, I didn't touch your head. I'm too short to reach it."

"It wasn't you..."

Hua Hu chuckled twice, trembling, "Xiao Yun, have you found the way? Can we leave this place quickly?"
