Chapter 646 The Cave Under the Mountain
"vomit……"

Seeing clearly what the mouse was biting, Dugu Jing'er covered her mouth, almost vomiting it out.

"Yin'er." Jun Yu took Yuan Deyin's hand, trying to use his body to help her block this disgusting scene.

But Yuan Deyin shook his head slightly, and then said: "Uncle Jiuhuang, it's okay, Deyin can accept it."

She took the initiative to walk past Jiuhuangshu.

The mouse sensed that someone was approaching and wanted to run away.

"Brother Wuxi." Yuan Deyin called softly.

As a secret guard who had been by their side for so long, Wu Xi could immediately understand Yuan Deyin's meaning with just one sound.

He picked up the sword from the ground, and then threw the sword out of his hand, killing the mouse directly.

If it was another small animal, Yuan Deyin might try to catch it, communicate with it, and ask it what's going on here.

But this is a mouse, she has no intelligence, she can't communicate with it at all, so it's better to end it as soon as possible.

Yuan Deyin walked over, took out a handkerchief from her body, and picked up the severed finger from the ground.

Seeing Yuan Deyin's calm look, Dugu Jing'er's hairs stood on end.

As expected of someone she admired, he even dared to pick up a severed finger.

Everyone at the scene was a little shocked by Yuan Deyin's bold appearance.

Only Jun Yu, he looked at the little girl with extremely worried and pity.

Seven years ago, if she had seen such a scene, she would have been terrified.

But seven years later, she was able to keep her face unchanged.

No one is born brave, they are all forced out.

We haven't seen each other for seven years, but the little girl is becoming more and more brave. That can only show that she has experienced too many hardships in the Death Soul Formation, which is why she was forced to grow up.

From the very beginning, he hoped that her life would be ordinary and that she would not have to deliberately grow up...

Yuan Deyin could naturally sense the complicated eyes of Nine Emperor Shu'an behind her, and her mood was a little dignified.

She naturally knew that Uncle Jiuhuang wanted to protect her and didn't want her to touch anything dangerous.

However, she also knew that it would be tiring to protect someone all the time.

Uncle Jiu Huang had to protect Chi Yan's people when he was young, and he had to take good care of her later on.

She didn't want to be the petite flower behind him, she also wanted to fight side by side with him.

She closed her eyes, and when Yuan Deyin opened them again, there was firmness in her eyes.

She quickly took out the silver needle from her body and stuck it into the severed finger.

"The owner of this finger was not poisoned during his lifetime. Moreover, the marks on it don't look like they were bitten by a mouse. There are dirty things in the crevices of the nails, and the nails were broken a little. It is estimated that this person has struggled before..."

"Also, judging by the degree of its decay, it probably took less than a day for it to leave the original owner's body."

Yuan Deyin continued.

"This, this, where did this thing come from?" Dugu Jing'er asked loudly, holding back her nausea.

Jun Yu walked to Yuan Deyin's side, and he took the severed finger wrapped in a handkerchief from her hand.

"There are traces of moss on the fingernails, so its owner is likely to be near the water source now. Moreover, judging from the thickness of this finger, its owner is a man, and he is a man practicing martial arts."

Jun Yu said in a low voice.

"A martial arts practitioner can still have his fingers broken, what has he experienced!" Dugu Jing'er asked nervously.

"Search!"

Jun Yu ordered coldly.

"I obey." Wu Xi immediately understood what their lord meant, and then went out, and began to search the mountain with dozens of guards and hidden guards who survived from the boat.

After half an hour.

"My lord, all the houses have been searched, and there is no one."

"My lord, there is only one well on the mountain, but there is no one around, and there are no corpses."

"My lord, I have searched the east side, and there is no trace of anyone."

"The west, south and north were also searched, but nothing was found."

"..."

Soon, all the hidden guards and bodyguards came back, and judging from their reports, this mountain was an empty city.

"Impossible, people... must still be here." Yuan Deyin shook his head firmly.

"Deyin, why are you so determined?" Dugu Jing'er frowned and asked suspiciously.

"The mouse just burrowed around where it was, but it didn't get out for a long time because Tata's leg was injured and it was inconvenient to run... A mouse that can't run very far can't get out from a long distance. Bitten off a severed finger."

Yuan Deyin looked at the remains of rats and severed fingers on the table with dark eyes, and then spoke slowly.

"Also, the severed finger was broken, not bitten off by a mouse. When it reached the mouse's mouth, the severed finger was still stained with blood, and the blood was still wet, indicating the time it took for the severed finger to appear in front of us. , very short, very short... I'm afraid that when we were talking before, that person was moving not far away."

Jun Yu also spoke in a deep voice at this time.

I see……

Dugu Jinger suddenly realized.

She couldn't help but look at Yuan Deyin with admiration.

This little princess of Deyin, maybe he was born as a policeman, so he can investigate the case like the owner of the family.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, where do you say that there will be moss?" Yuan Deyin frowned in thought, and then asked Jun Yu.

"Moss..." Jun Yu tapped the table with his slender fingers, his eyes were deep and sharp.

Suddenly, something flashed in the eyes of the two of them.

They said at the same time: "Facing the north mountain!"

"Wuxi, is there a hill on the top of the mountain?" Jun Yu turned his head and asked Wuxi in a serious tone.

"Yes, my lord, we just discovered that there is a hill on the edge of the cliff, but that place is too close to the cliff, and there is no way to hide people, so we just took a look, and didn't investigate carefully if we didn't find anything else. Yes." Wu Xi quickly replied.

"Take me to have a look."

After Jun Yu finished speaking, he quickly walked outside.

Seeing this, Wu Xi quickly ran to lead the way.

Yuan Deyin and others naturally followed suit.

Dugu Jing'er trotted to Yuan Deyin's side.

"Why are you looking for another mountain on the top of the mountain?" She asked suspiciously.

"It doesn't have to be at the edge of the well to have moss. If there is a mountain above the top of the mountain, it must have moss on the back of the mountain."

Yuan Deyin said in a serious tone.

"why?"

"It rains all year round in Chiping Mountain, and moss is easy to appear on the north side of the mountain, because the sun does not shine on the north side all the year round, so if there is a lot of rain, moss is easy to appear on the north side." Yuan Deyin explained patiently.

It turned out that this was the case, Dugu Jing'er suddenly realized again.

They soon came to the front of the hill.

"My lord, there are indeed mountains and mountains here, but it is close to the cliff, so no one can hide it." Wu Xi said.

"This mountain must be able to hide people. Otherwise, the severed finger would never come before us, and Shen Chuannan and the others would not disappear out of thin air." Jun Yu said sharply.

After speaking, he quickly flew down the cliff.

Everyone only saw the black skirt flapping, and soon Jun Yu disappeared.

However, they were only slightly startled, and soon calmed down.

Because they believed in Jun Yu's ability, he would be fine.

Sure enough, Jun Yu came back soon.

"Yin'er, as we expected, there is a hole below." Jun Yu said quickly to Yuan Deyin.

There really is a hole.

The rest of the people looked at each other, only Yuan Deyin breathed a sigh of relief.

There is a hole below, which proves that their guess just now is correct.

Maybe, this cave can help them find their master and the others?

"Uncle Nine Emperors, let's go and have a look." Yuan Deyin raised his head again, looking at Jun Yu firmly.

Looking at the little girl's firm eyes, Jun Yu couldn't say no.

His little girl is determined to protect him.

"Okay, you are with me." Jun Yu finally nodded.

"Wuying, stay here and protect Dugu Jing'er." Jun Yu ordered.

"Why? Patriarch, I want to be with you too." Dugu Jing'er became anxious when she heard this.

She also wanted to see what was going on!

As a result, Jun Yu looked over with a stern look.

Dugu Jing'er was scared instantly.

"Family, Patriarch, you go. I won't be your burden."

At this time, Dugu Jinger suddenly became very self-aware.

It's better not to implicate them with her three-legged cat kung fu.

"Wuxi, you stay here too. If the king and Yin'er have any situation down there, you can rescue them. It's limited to one hour."

Jun Yu didn't do anything he wasn't prepared for. After he told everything, he started to walk to the edge of the cliff.

"I'll follow too." Zuo Qie also came from the other side at this time.

"You..." Yuan Deyin wanted to say that there might be danger down there, and he didn't want him to follow.

As a result, she only uttered a word, and Zuo Qie interrupted her.

"Sister, you are afraid that Jun Yu will be in danger, so you follow. But as your younger brother, I am also afraid that you will be in danger, so I want to follow too." His tone was very righteous.

Yuan Deyin: "..."

Unexpectedly, one day, she could be used by Zuo Qi when she refuted Uncle Jiuhuang's argument.

"Okay, you follow, but you must pay attention to safety." Yuan Deyin finally compromised, but she still did not forget to tell Zuo Qi to pay attention to safety.

"Understood, I'm not a child." Zuo Qie pretended to be cold and jumped down.

Yuan Deyin and Uncle Jiuhuang looked at each other, and they quickly jumped down.

A few meters below, there was a raised rock just big enough for three people to stand on.

Yuan Deyin stood there, looked to the side, and saw a hole.

The entrance of the cave was very deep at first glance, and when she looked in from here, it was extremely dark, and she couldn't see the corner and the end.

"Let's go." Jun Yu pulled Yuan Deyin into his hand, and then walked inside.

Zuo Qie followed suit, and he quickly lit a torch, and everything around him began to become clear.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, look, this side is full of moss." Yuan Deyin pointed to the entrance of the cave where he just entered, which was covered with moss.

"There is blood here." Zuo Qie found something, and he hurriedly said.

Following the direction of his finger, Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu looked over, and they saw a large bloodstain on a protruding stone.

The blood was still bright red, so it was probably just stained.

"A large piece of moss here has disappeared. It doesn't seem to be formed naturally. It seems to be man-made. It is estimated that a person's body hit it, and then the clothes stained the moss here." Yuan Deyin's eyes fell. When he reached the stone wall next to the bloodstain, he said softly.

"So, the owner of the severed finger probably broke his finger here, and it is very likely that someone else severed his finger. Without the help of a sharp weapon, he can break a person's finger abruptly. Born with brute strength, the strength is too much." Zuo Qi sighed softly.

"I don't know who else is in this cave, we must be careful." Yuan Deyin said seriously.

Zuo Xie also knew that the matter was serious. He glanced at the fire pocket in his hand, and finally decided to extinguish the fire pocket.

The three of them walked forward in the dark, so that they were not easy to be found by others.

Fortunately, the three of them have strong internal strength, so a pair of eyes does not have much influence in the dark.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, can you find the feeling of going higher and higher in this cave?"

After walking for a long time, Yuan Deyin, who found nothing else, suddenly realized something, and she hurriedly asked Jun Yu.

"Yes, I found it." Jun Yu responded.

He continued: "The ground on the top of the mountain is fairly flat, but the underground cave on the top of the mountain is getting higher and higher, which only shows that the layer of soil on the cave floor is getting thinner and thinner."

When they jumped down, the entrance of the cave was a few meters above the cliff, but now that they have walked for so long, the height here is definitely not so high from the ground.

"Heh, the thickness of the cave and the ground is getting smaller and smaller, aren't they afraid that the ground will collapse?" Zuo Qie sarcastically said.

After his words fell, something flashed in the eyes of Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu at the same time.

"Whether the land will collapse or not, I don't know, but I know that if someone wants to open a path directly down from the top of the cave, it is very easy." Jun Yu said coldly.

Hearing Jun Yu's words, Zuo Qie's expression also changed.

"You mean, the reason why those people disappeared out of thin air so quickly is probably because they drilled a hole in their own house, and the hole can lead directly to here?" Zuo Qi hurriedly asked.

"Whether it is true or not, you will know if you go forward." Jun Yu's tone was extremely serious.

The three hurriedly continued to walk forward.

The further you go, the wider the hole becomes.

But suddenly, two paths appeared in front of them.

"Jun Yu, you and my sister are on the same path, and I am on the same path."

Zuo Qie allocated them without thinking.

When he was a child, he hated Jun Yu for robbing his sister.

After growing up, he understood that only Jun Yu can protect his sister well.

Let my sister go with Jun Yu.

But just when he was about to go to the left, Jun Yu stopped him.

"You go with Yin'er. This place is a bit strange. You and Yin'er have relatively little actual combat experience, but the two of you can take care of each other together. I can do it alone."

Although he was worried about the little girl, Jun Yu couldn't watch Zuo Xie fall into danger alone.

because……

After all, it was the younger brother that the little girl personally acknowledged.

"Take care of her." Jun Yu finally told Zuo Qi.

Seeing Jun Yu make such a decision, Zuo Qi was shocked.

But he soon calmed down.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my sister." He promised loudly.

Yuan Deyin also knew that now was not the time to care about personal feelings.

She nodded to Jun Yu, and then followed Zuo Xie to the left road.

The two walked for a while.

Zuo Qie suddenly felt short of breath.

"Sister, do you find it difficult to breathe?"

As he finished speaking, there was a gust of wind in front of him.

The wind was so strong that he was almost blown away. Fortunately, he stabilized his body with internal force in time.

But when the wind stopped, his head was buzzing, and his cheeks were in severe pain. The stones blown by the wind had cut his face, and blood flowed from it.

How could there be wind in this cave?

Feeling weird, but Zuo Xie was more worried about Yuan Deyin.

"Sister, are you alright?"

He grabbed the arm of the person next to him, then turned to ask her about her situation.

He didn't notice at all that the arm he was holding was very slender, as thin as if there was only a skeleton left.

As soon as he turned his head, he met a pair of lifeless eyes.

A face that had already begun to rot came closer to him.

"Hehehe...Little thing, do you want to recognize me as your sister?"
