Chapter 132 Forty Seven. Entering the Swamp

  This road in the Shadowswamp is paved with rammed earth. Slightly higher than the swamp to cope with the possible uptick in rains during the monsoon season without being inundated.

   Leaving Shadow Town from the convoy and drove onto the swamp road. Some dead trees on both sides of the road were wrapped with red ropes. Some marks are new, others are faded and blackened.

   The person in charge of the team that often passes through this swampy road said that those who passed by were tied up, and people hoped that this way could ensure the smoothness of the road.

There is a lot of this scene near the entrance to the swamp, but as you pass through the relatively normal flat area and enter the swamp, the sides of the road turn into a lifeless and dark world, the red ropes become scarce, and only some completely black ropes are left from twisting The branches of the dead tree drooped and fluttered in the breeze.

   looks like a twisted figure beckoning to the convoy.

  's unique black eyes and temperament make Lu Li very popular, women... and men.

   The team leader was a fat brown-haired woman who warmly greeted Lu Li to sit in her carriage and talked about things that Lu Li might be interested in.

   For example, Yingchuo and the six-legged savages known to everyone who has passed through the swamp road, such as a group of abandoned wooden houses looming among the dead woods in the depths of the swamp after three or four miles in the swamp.

"I heard that the Shadow Swamp was not what it is now a long time ago. At that time, some people lived in the swamp. Later, the wild became more and more dangerous, and the swamp was not suitable for living." The brown-haired woman said, staring at Lu Li intoxicated. 's profile.

   Then she felt an unpleasant chill emerge from the corner of the carriage.

  Lu Li nodded, but did not speak, his black eyes reflected the depths of the dark swamp, and deeply embedded in his eyes the old, dilapidated, verdant wooden house complex.

   About 8~10 miles into the swamp, the team of five carriages and trucks slowly stopped.

  This is almost the same as the horizontal coordinates of the **** tentacles. You can find it by entering the swamp and land from here.

  The brown-haired woman gave Lu Li a pair of simple walking sticks, and told him to pay attention to the swampy ground. Some of the fallen leaves that seemed to be on the ground were likely to be bottomless swamps, which could engulf people in an instant, which was very dangerous.

   "Thank you." Lu Li thanked politely and accepted the cane.

   "So where can I find you in the future?" The brown-haired woman silently stood closer, breaking the widely spread etiquette of distance between strangers.

   After a brief silence, Lu Li said, "Belfast, the Detective Agency of Bizarre Li."

   He didn't hand over the business card because he didn't think he would have an intersection with the brown-haired woman in the future.

   And the look in the other's eyes made Lu Li feel trouble.

   As we all know, Lu Li is afraid of trouble.

   "I'll write it down."

  The brown-haired woman reluctantly returned to the carriage, her eyes fell on Lu Li who was on the side of the road, until far away from the carriage, the standing Lu Li turned into a black spot.

  Lu Li retracted his gaze and walked to the edge of the swamp road to look into the distance.

   Anna, who was floating beside her, showed her figure, looking at Lu Li with a trace of sadness in her eyes.

   "Stop it! You're a charismatic guy all the time!"

  Anna wanted to say that, but she felt embarrassed to say it like that.

  The sky above the swamp is covered with a thin layer of mist, and the blood-colored tentacles are looming in the mist, hanging down somewhere in the swamp in front of him.

   For the Shadow Swamp, which is nearly 50 miles wide, it is far from the center of the swamp, not even the depths.

   In previous years, the swamps were lush and green, the trees shaded the sky, the reeds as tall as a person were enough to make people lost, and the lush plants and wild fruits were a paradise for any small animal.

   But the climate has changed this, and there is no greenery in the whole dead swamp jungle, only the occasional calls of frogs and unknown insects come from the gaps in the forest, bringing some vitality.

  Twisted withered trees reveal criss-crossing roots, and the wet mud and water pools mix together to form a land that is enough for people to walk on.

   The real rainy season has not yet come, and when the storm comes, it will become a swamp country again.

   Except for the swampy road standing under your feet.

   and the hard-to-return green.

  Lu Li continued to look upwards and landed in the depths of the clouds. A gloomy cloud drifted from the east, as if a new rain was about to fall.

   Going into the swamp at this time doesn't seem like a good idea. But it's also not a good idea to wait for this rain that doesn't know when to end - especially when Lu Li is living in Shadow Town.

   "Let's go."

   Lu Li said and stepped down the **** at the edge of the road, stepping on the muddy ground covered with a layer of rotting fallen leaves.

   A soft touch came from the soles of his feet, Lu Li moved the soles of his feet and looked at the line of shallow shoe prints he stepped on.

   can walk.

  Anna floated behind Lu Li, looked around vigilantly, raised her breath, and was ready to pull Lu Li out of the quagmire at any time.

   However, Lu Li paid close attention to his feet, and he also had a cane to explore the path, until he left the range of the swamp road and walked into the swamp jungle with a knot, he was still in peace.

  The natural light began to look weird, the mottled light penetrated the gaps between the dead branches, making the swamp a little dark. Before I heard the mosquitoes on the road before I do not know when to disappear, the surrounding is quiet.

  The dark and cold atmosphere could not be shaken. He walked through the twisted and dry shadows of the trees, occasionally looking up at the sky in the dense jungle, determining the position of the blood-colored tentacles, and moving on.

   This silence lasted for ten minutes.

   The road under my feet gradually became difficult to walk. Some puddles lie in front of the road, and those who do not know the depth of the puddles and their true width have to make a detour, or step on the criss-crossing tree roots.

  Although Anna can use her ability to lift Lu Li and float past, it is a bit wasteful to use it on the road.

   In this, Lu Li didn't see a green, nor did he see any traces of insects, birds and beasts.

   Corrupted and lifeless, as if the swamp had been dead for a long time.

The    cane poked in the fallen leaves on the ground in front of him, and the seemingly normal ground suddenly looked like a water polo, with waves.

  Lu Li stopped and poked again with his stick.

  I felt a hint of resistance in my palm, while the dark gray wetlands a few meters ahead rippled

   There could be some kind of swamp below, or blisters under the grass.

   Anna looked at it with some novelty, and Lu Li carefully bypassed this area - it was bigger than expected. Lu Li walked a dozen meters away from the side to avoid this trap.

   rustle rustle——

   Not long after he walked out, a sound similar to that of falling leaves being stepped on quickly entered his ears.

  Anna turned her head suddenly, her clear eyes narrowed, and she whispered, "Something crawled past!"

   "Possibly small creatures living in swamps."

   Lu Li's voice sounded aside.

  Anna looked a little strangely, and found that Lu Li turned his back to the direction from which the sound came, and he didn't care.

   Immediately after she observed, Lu Li's right hand silently held the psychic gun around his waist.
