Chapter 87 Island Ruins (7)

The old man was stunned for a moment, but hesitated for a moment, and put down the medicine basket behind him and said, "It's all ordinary herbs, all ordinary ones."

Danica lifted a piece of coarse cloth covered by the medicine basket and looked at it. There were quite a lot of herbs inside, almost half a basket. She picked a purple-red herb, chose a tip of the leaf and took a small bite carefully, chewed it seriously, spit out the grass residue, and said, "This is not Yin Han grass at all, you picked the wrong one."

Hearing Danica say this, the old man was at a loss and said in a panic: "Maybe he is old and his eyes are not very good."

Danica shook her head and said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with the look. This herb looks exactly the same as Yinhancao. No pharmacist can tell from its appearance. Unless I taste the medicinal properties myself, I really don't know that there are plants like Yinhancao in this world. This time I opened my eyes." At the end, Danica also looked at the old man in an inquiry.

The old man calmed down at this time, looked at Danica's eyes without any weakness, and said, "The world is mysterious, who can be sure to understand everything."

Danica looked down at the medicine basket on the ground and said, "Are there any more valuable herbs here?"

The old man said, "Look, maybe there is something special."

Danica glanced at him, squatted down slowly, and carefully flipped through the medicine basket. As a result, under the pile of herbs, she turned out a human head, and the human flesh was Corres.

Looking at the head that was already a little rotten and died with eyes open, Danica's whole body froze. She didn't dare to move, or even blink, but just stared at the head, her mind was blank.

To be honest, Danica was a little panicked at that time. Since she learned that the ruins they were going to explore were left by the world's first necromancer, she had always been a little worried. Every magician who had an important position in the history of magic was a monster. No one knew how dangerous the ruins they left behind were. Along the way, Danica had raised her vigilance to the highest level, but she never expected that the first one to be plotted was the third-level sorcerer Corres, not her, a beginner-level magician.

After a while, Danica calmed down. She slowly raised her head and saw the old man collecting herbs looking at her with a sneer on her face. The body of Cores sitting next to her was still the same, but her face turned into an old man's face, exactly the same expression and the same sneer on her face, looking straight at herself.

Danica's face was extremely pale at this time, as if it was a piece of white paper. She couldn't help but suppress her trembling hands and feet and said, "There is nothing good to buy here." Although her tone was calm, Danica's voice was hoarse.

The old man who collected the herbs asked with a proud look on his face: "Really? Don't you want to buy that thing? Your relationship is so good, you will always have a thought when you buy it, right?"

Danica looked down at the head in the eyedrops basket, threw the herbs in her hand into the medicine basket, and said, "What do you think about? Dead people have no value." At this time, Danica's tone was already very calm.

"Okay, I'll take it away if you don't want it." The old man who collected the herbs said with some regret, grabbed the medicine basket and carried it on his back, took steady steps, and left singing a high-pitched mountain song.

"How about it, can you rest?" said the man with an old man's face and Corice's body, "It's time for us to set off, too."

Danica knew that her face was still pale, but she still curled the corners of her mouth and said, "Okay, let's go."

Next is climbing the mountain. What’s strange is that there is a spiraling mountain road on this towering mountain peak. The road is very narrow and steep, and many places can only accommodate one person.

While climbing the mountain, Curis was still walking in front. At this time, Danica had other ideas. She was wondering if what she had just seen was an illusion. She had seen this method of using illusion to confuse and mislead others before in books. Danica claimed to be a rational person. If she was fooled by illusion, it would be really ridiculous.

But gradually, Danica couldn't laugh anymore. Although "Corice"'s face had changed back, the details of her walking posture and some movements were completely different, which was impossible to pretend. In the eyes of people like Danica who have detailed observations and quick thinking, one person could not completely imitate another person. Danica was a little suspicious of her inference. Could it be that Curice was really dead?

Both of them were silent during the climbing process. Danica did not speak, and "Corice" did not mean to speak.

On this mountain, the climate became particularly strange. When I climbed halfway up the mountain, Danica felt very cold. The wind of the mountain blew on her body, making people tremble.

At this time, the snow line had passed. The already steep and difficult-to-leave mountain road became extremely smooth after being covered with thin snow. Danica could only carefully hold the cliff and try to keep herself standing a little more steadily.

Originally, it would be better to walk on such a dangerous road, but Curis didn't care about this. She still kept walking on the mountain road at a fast speed. In order to catch up with Curis, Danica had to speed up her own speed, which had caused a lot of danger. On several occasions, she almost fell down because of slipping under her feet.

Finally, Danica couldn't help but say, "Corice, wait..."

Before Danica finished her sentence, she heard a scream of Corres's exclamation and fell down on her back. What's worse, in order to maintain balance as much as possible when she fell, Corres took a few steps back in a panic. As a result, she accidentally stepped on her right foot and fell down.

"Be careful!" Danica shouted when Corres fell and hurriedly stepped forward to catch her, but she didn't expect Corres to fall down after being in the air. She quickly reached out and grabbed Corres' wrist.

At this time, Curis's whole body hung outside, and there was a cliff several hundred meters below. Even if the trialist had a height, she would not be able to escape death if she fell down.

Fortunately, Danica caught Curris in time, and it was not difficult to pull her up. As a professional, Danica has very good physical fitness, and it is relatively easy to pull up Curris like a girl.

At this moment, Coris's face suddenly changed again, and he turned into the old man who collected herbs. At the same time, Danica felt her right hand fall, and Coris became much heavier.
