Murano Momo is a cunning doctor

Chapter 1275 Accidentally Entering a Wolf's Den

Without the force to move forward, the giant ball rolled back the way it came and quickly disappeared into the depths of the dark tunnel.

The two people falling were naturally unaware of this sudden change.

When Jiang Xiaochuan finally managed to open his eyes and adjust to the blinding light, he was shocked to find himself falling towards the bottom of a lush, green valley.

The dense canopy of trees is like an open green umbrella, layer upon layer, blocking out the view below.

Fortunately, the height wasn't too great. He lightly touched the branches of a large tree beside him with his toes, dissipating most of the force of the fall, and slid down the tree trunk.

However, his spiritual energy was already nearly depleted, and this act of borrowing and deflecting force had exhausted his last bit of strength. He staggered two steps when he landed before he could barely steady himself.

what....

Above, Lao Liu's screams pierced the valley.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaochuan landed steadily, he also adjusted his posture to match.

He stepped on a branch at the top of the tree below, trying to use it for cushioning.

But it underestimated its own weight, and the slender branch snapped with a crisp "crack".

Caught off guard, the sixth brother crashed heavily to the ground like an out-of-control ball of flesh.

Thanks to his thick skin and resilience, he groaned a couple of times and quickly got up, clutching his bottom.

While picking off bits of grass, he cursed at Jiang Xiaochuan, "Damn it! You didn't even say a word when you left!"

"That big guy almost crushed me into a meat patty, and now I've fallen and gotten a bloody butt. So I'm the only one who's unlucky?"

"Shh!"

Just then, Jiang Xiaochuan, who was looking around, suddenly raised his hand to signal him to be quiet and looked into the depths of the valley.

The sixth brother tensed up and followed his gaze. He saw a dense forest in the distance, with not a single tree or hair in sight.

He was about to lash out, but seeing Jiang Xiaochuan's face growing increasingly grim, he immediately swallowed and swallowed his words.

Just as Lao Liu said, once outside the area of ​​the ancient tomb, the effect of the Soul-Locking Dew completely disappears.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaochuan's spiritual energy was almost depleted, but his basic vision with his X-ray vision had recovered considerably.

Even without being able to activate spiritual energy to enhance vision, one can still vaguely sense that something unusual is happening in the distance.

Through the gaps in the dense forest, he could vaguely make out the outline of the wooden house.

The sudden appearance of inhabited wooden houses deep in this desolate mountain valley is no accident.

Perhaps they are the guardians of the ancient tomb.

Once their whereabouts are exposed, they will face certain death.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaochuan's heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his voice: "Let's go!"

The sixth brother instantly realized the seriousness of the situation.

Having been a tomb raider for so long, he understood the principle that anything unusual must be suspicious, and he nodded quickly.

The two exchanged glances, then crouched down and, using the shadows of the bushes and rocks, quietly slipped away in the opposite direction from the cabin.

Before they could take two steps, a whooshing sound suddenly rang out from the treetops above them!

Jiang Xiaochuan felt the light above his head dim suddenly. He looked up abruptly and saw a thin, large net gleaming with a cold light being cast down from the treetops.

It looked like it was about to completely engulf the two of them!

In a flash, Jiang Xiaochuan mustered all his strength in his right arm and shoved Lao Liu hard in the back!

Old Six stumbled forward and lunged out of the net's reach.

Using the reaction force, Jiang Xiaochuan pushed off with his waist and retreated rapidly!

"Shh!"

The large net brushed against the hem of their clothes, covering the spot where they were standing.

Along the edges of the mesh, dark, hooked barbs are deeply embedded in the soil and gravel.

Immediately afterwards, the large net tightened abruptly, the tough netting fibers digging into the ground with a soft "crunching" sound.

Without a doubt, once the blanket is completely covered, the poisoned black thorns can instantly render a person incapacitated.

"Whoosh..."

Before the two could react, the sound of rapid movement and friction emanating from the dense forest around them simultaneously came from different directions, closing in instantly!

The next moment, four figures silently appeared, occupying the four directions of east, west, south, and north, firmly surrounding the two and blocking all escape routes.

The moment these four appeared, the intense stench of blood nearly made Lao Liu vomit.

He covered his nose and scanned ahead, only to see that all four men were pale, and even the dark purple veins under their skin were clearly visible.

What chilled Lao Liu the most were the eyes of these four men. Their pupils were extremely small, faintly glowing with bloodlust, and their gazes toward him were full of violence and greed.

"It's over... We've really stirred up trouble in the Crimson Blood Cult's heartland..."

Old Liu's face turned ashen, his lips trembled, and he wished he could slap himself twice for not investigating more thoroughly back then.

These lunatics actually made their home right next to their ancestors' graves!

Jiang Xiaochuan's heart sank; these four people were all Grandmasters.

Having just survived a fierce battle in the tomb, facing four fully-fledged evil masters, there is absolutely no chance of victory.

Strangely, despite their overwhelming hatred, the four grandmasters simply surrounded them without immediately making a move.

It's like waiting for some command.

This strange stalemate gave Jiang Xiaochuan a chance to catch his breath, and he used the "Immortal and Demonic Code" to its fullest extent to restore his spiritual energy.

Just then, a rustling sound rang out.

Upon hearing the voice, the four grandmasters instantly lost most of their ferocity, turned towards the source of the sound, lowered their heads slightly, and revealed an instinctive submission.

Jiang Xiaochuan and Lao Liu also looked in the direction of the sound.

An elderly man, dressed in a wide black robe and with a hunched back, slowly appeared in everyone's sight, leaning on a bone cane.

Upon seeing this attire, Jiang Xiaochuan and Lao Liu exchanged a glance simultaneously.

This black robe is exactly the same as the one worn by the high priest in the murals of the Demon Moon Tomb, who presided over the sacrifice, and even the shape of the bone staff is exactly the same!

Even more unbelievable is that the old man did not possess the bloodthirsty aura that a member of the Crimson Blood Cult should have. Instead, he exuded an aura of calmness that was almost desolate.

Behind him, two other people dressed in black robes, their faces obscured, stood silently like shadows, their hands clasped at their sides.

The most striking figure was a young boy standing slightly behind the old man.

He was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slender build and unusually clear and bright eyes that seemed out of place in the eerie atmosphere of the gloomy valley, instead exuding a pure and spiritual quality.

"it's him!"

The boy's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed at the sixth brother.

This sudden identification startled Lao Liu.

He moved closer to Jiang Xiaochuan, staring at the boy while cursing under his breath.

Although it's unclear what this young man is up to, being singled out by such a key figure in the Crimson Blood Cult's stronghold is definitely not a good thing!

As expected, as soon as the boy finished speaking, the four grandmasters who had been surrounding him, along with the two black-robed attendants standing behind the priest, all turned their gazes toward the sixth brother.

These people's eyes were filled with intense hatred, which made the hairs on the back of Lao Liu's neck stand on end.

"Kid, don't point randomly!"

Old Six stamped his foot in frustration, "Fatty, I don't know you at all, nor do I know anyone here!"

"I was just passing by, purely passing by! It's all his fault."

As he spoke, he nudged Jiang Xiaochuan beside him with his elbow, trying to shift the blame, but he quickly changed his mind before he could finish the sentence:

"No, no, no, it's not him! We just wandered into this valley by mistake and were trying to find a way out. You must have mistaken us for someone else!"
