Chapter 80: The same old trick again?
Shen Lang looked at Xue Lingling's determined eyes, and a feeling of emotion and admiration surged in his heart: "Okay, Lingling, let's fight side by side!"
Shen Lang held a sword in his hand, stood sideways in front of Xue Lingling, and whispered: "Lingling, I will rush up to attract its attention later, and you will take action when the time is right."
Xue Lingling nodded, and her breathing became more and more rapid.
At this moment, the voice of Xue Mengya was faintly heard from outside the valley. The two were stunned. Is this the monster using the same trick again?
Shen Lang's eyes were full of doubts and vigilance. He whispered to Xue Lingling: "Lingling, don't act rashly."
Xue Lingling swallowed nervously, nodded and replied: "Yeah."
She will not repeat the same mistake this time. If she hadn't been impulsive last time, she would not be in this situation now.
Shen Lang frowned, thought for a moment and said: "We can't just believe it based on the sound, let's observe first."
They stood there quietly, but the sound became clearer and clearer, accompanied by anxious shouts: "Shen Lang, Lingling, where are you! Strange... I just heard Lingling shouting for help, why didn't she come over and there was no trace of her?"
Xue Lingling's face showed a trace of hesitation: "Shen Lang, this voice really sounds like it, and if it's fake, how does she know our names?"
Shen Lang gritted his teeth.
"Even if it's like it, we can't let our guard down. Remember the illusions created by the monster before? Maybe this is another trap. And that thing may know our names. Didn't we shout each other's names when we were arguing?"
After listening to Shen Lang's words, Xue Lingling nodded.
That makes sense.
Shen Lang made a decision in his heart.
They can't afford to be careless now. If they make a mistake, they will be directly buried in this ghost place!
Now he has figured it out.
This figure probably picked the weakest person and the one he cared about the most, and lured him to this ghost place, where it was beneficial to the monster.
However, what made him feel strange was that the fog in this place was the thickest, but it was obviously reduced outside.
Could it be... this was actually the division of the two forces? The monsters in the fog dared not go out, and the monsters outside would not come in.
He couldn't help but think of the flying bird he met at the beginning.
Before, it was it that guided them to a safe place.
Although it was unbelievable, after all, there were few monsters that did not attack humans, but at least it was true that it did not hurt them.
At this time, the atmosphere around them became more and more solemn, and the wind seemed to have stopped. Only the constant shouting stimulated their nerves.
Xue Lingling couldn't help but take a step forward: "Shen Lang, how about we respond? What if Meng Ya really came to find us?"
Shen Lang grabbed her: "Wait a minute, there is another person next to you."
Xue Lingling looked in the direction pointed by Shen Lang, and saw a figure looming in the shadows in the distance, it was Wang Tingyi.
Wang Tingyi looked very nervous, and he approached them cautiously.
It turned out to be him!
That means it's true! Shen Lang's heart was churning.
His previous guesses now seemed to be confirmed step by step.
The weakest person would see the most important and cared-for person in danger, and then lure him here.
If this guess is true, then Wang Tingyi's appearance here means that the two people are definitely real.
Shen Lang didn't have time to think about how to escape from the inside and outside, and get rid of the monsters inside, and the two people were about to step into the valley.
The monsters guarding the exit looked at them covetously.
They never thought that the monsters were right next to them, and they would be torn to pieces once they came in!
"It's true, they are in danger, and we can't let them come in like this."
Shen Lang was anxious, and his brain was working fast.
If they died, then the chances of winning for him and Xue Lingling would be slim.
But if the four of them worked together, they could still fight for it!
Xue Lingling's face also turned pale, and her lips trembled: "What should we do then?"
Shen Lang took a deep breath and whispered to Xue Lingling: "Lingling, I will distract the monsters in a while, and you take the opportunity to run in the opposite direction."
Xue Lingling tightly grasped the corner of Shen Lang's clothes, her eyes full of worry and fear: "No, it's too dangerous, Shen Lang! How can I leave you here alone?"
Shen Lang gently pried her hands apart and looked into her eyes: "There is no time, believe me! I will definitely find a way to catch up with you."
Just then, the figures of Xue Mengya and Wang Tingyi appeared at the entrance of the valley and were about to walk in.
The monster let out a low roar, and the sound seemed to shatter people's souls.
It opened its bloody mouth, and its sharp fangs flashed cold light in the dim light, ready to pounce on them.
Shen Lang shouted, holding a sword, and rushed towards the monster without hesitation.
The monster was enraged by Shen Lang's provocation. It turned around suddenly, and its huge claws slapped Shen Lang with a sharp sound of wind.
Shen Lang dodged to the side, and the sword slashed across the monster's iron-hard body, splashing a string of dazzling sparks, like a meteor in the night sky that disappeared in an instant.
Xue Lingling took this opportunity and rushed towards Xue Mengya and Wang Tingyi who had just entered the valley like an arrow from a string.
"Go!" Xue Lingling shouted loudly, her voice became sharp because of nervousness, and it echoed in the valley.
Xue Mengya saw the thrilling scene in front of her, and her face turned pale as paper in an instant.
This monster almost killed them just now...
I didn't expect it was right next to them! If Shen Lang hadn't attracted the monster's attention, they would have been beheaded.
But soon, she suppressed her fear.
The two followed Xue Lingling back.
At this time, Shen Lang was fighting fiercely with the monster. He had many wounds on his body and his clothes were stained red with blood.
The monster's attack became more and more fierce. Its thick tail swept over like a steel whip. Shen Lang couldn't avoid it and was swept to the ground heavily.
He got up with difficulty, gasping for breath, and sweat blurred his vision.
After the monster got rid of Shen Lang's entanglement, it chased after them.
Shen Lang was anxious, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and he tried his best to catch up and block the monster again.
He raised his sword and stabbed the monster with his last bit of strength.
The sword pierced deeply into the monster's leg, and the monster roared in pain. It swung its body angrily and threw Shen Lang out fiercely.
Shen Lang fell heavily to the ground, his eyes went dark, and he almost fainted.
Xue Lingling heard the movement behind her and couldn't help but look back. When she saw Shen Lang's miserable condition, tears burst out of her eyes.
"Don't look back, run!" Shen Lang shouted with his last strength.
However, the monster did not give Shen Lang a chance to breathe. It raised its huge foot and stepped on Shen Lang fiercely.
