Chapter 6 The Glowing Underground Corpse(1/2)
Gradually, the red light was getting closer and closer, and we could clearly see what it was. Until we approached, I couldn't help but gasp. To be honest, I was ready when I entered the ancient tomb, but when I saw this, I couldn't help but breathe.
What is this? I just saw it from afar and thought it was a human, because the height of this thing is about 1.67 meters tall, about the same height as a human, but those with wings are not necessarily angels. Therefore, those who are about the same height as humans are definitely not humans.
It should be said that this is a bug? A face similar to a cockroach, with two long antennas on its head. At first glance, it is really a distant relative to the animal that housewives most feared by today's housewives, but his body is similar to a human body, with two hands... or in other words, two claws are more suitable, with two legs, and the light on the body is densely covered with scales.
The scales actually shine? I was briefly surprised. I heard that in some tropical rainforests in North America, there is a kind of python. They are covered with beautiful scales and will shine at night. But it is these beautiful scales that bring them the nightmare of almost extinction and genocide, and they cannot avoid the endless hunting of humans?
Could it be that these cockroaches that are similar to humans also have the same scales?
Four cockroaches and humanoid monsters came over from four angles, stopped about three meters away from us, and looked at us.
For some reason, under the gaze of such a monster, I felt uncomfortable all over. I turned around and looked at the young master next to me. He also looked stunned.
"Woooooooo..." Just as we were paying attention to the cockroach monster, a miserable cry suddenly came from the top of our heads again, and the miserable green scenery almost flew over my head.
Although I don’t understand what this is, under such circumstances, I instinctively took the initiative to attack. Anyway, there will definitely be no living people here, and there will be no national protected animals.
The bronze ancient sword swept over the miserable green shadow with a cold light. This time, I felt something on the tip of the sword. At the same time, a scream came from my ears.
I was secretly happy and finally hurt the ghost. But before I could be happy, the young master's terrified cry came from beside me: "Old Xu, go quickly!"
On the four cockroaches and human-shaped monsters, red bugs flew up and rushed towards us quickly.
Oh my God, it turns out that these monsters are not scale armor, but unknown beetles. These beetles are not big, but their bodies are bright red, with a faint red light in the air. Because they are very close, these bright red beetles seem to pounce on them at lightning speed. I didn't have time to guard, and the bronze sword in my hand was instinctively waving, and the young master also waved an engineer shovel in his hand.
"Protect the girl, I'll open the way." We were wearing masks on our heads. Because we were afraid of groundwater and because the eyes of the Kunlun wind were close to the Yellow River, we were wearing military water. For a moment, although these bright red beetles pounced on our department, they still couldn't hurt us.
However, the number of red beetles was too large, and the whole body was shining with red light, as if it was a kiss of blood, only the size of a fingernail. I waved my sword and killed two of them. As soon as these beetles died, they immediately turned into yellow-white pus, showing that they had strong toxins themselves.
"Woooooooo..." The shrill cry was above my head. While I was waving the ancient bronze sword to open the way, I had to distinguish the direction. The only way out should be on the opposite wall - according to the Chinese people's habit of symmetry.
"Ah..." Suddenly, the girl's scream came from behind me. I didn't care about the beetles in front of me and looked back at the girl. I saw a few bright red beetles crawling into the girl's neck and collar along the opening of the gas mask.
Damn! I was shocked and didn't care about the danger. I hurriedly helped the girl pat on the beetle on her body. In a hurry, a beetle seemed to crawl on my hand. I was so scared that I shook my hands repeatedly. Finally, I could see clearly that the mouthparts of these beetles were like mosquito's mouthparts, but they were shiny black and shiny, half an inch long.
The young master jumped his feet repeatedly, stepped on two beetles to death, and shouted in panic: "Old Xu, this is not a solution."
The May 4th pistol in Huang Zhihua's hand now has no place to use it. It really responds to the old saying, "Why do you need to kill a chicken?" The best way to hit beetles is to have a bottle of gunman insecticide instead of a pistol. Therefore, Huang Zhihua is also very embarrassed now, but he is a soldier and is well-trained. He actually grabs his huge backpack and wiels around.
"This is a parasite, attacking their host!" Huang Zhihua even breathed a little rapid.
The host? It should be the four human-shaped cockroach monsters? I was busy looking around. After looking back, I almost bumped into something. When I looked up, I was shocked and my hands were weak.
I don’t know when the human-shaped cockroach monster was already standing in front of me, and his claw-like hands reached over, silently trying to jamm my neck.
The bright red beetle that was originally densely attached to its body has left, and I can clearly see his body - this should be considered a human? At least it should be considered a human? But now, its original flesh and blood have turned into pieces of rotten and rotten flesh, and I even saw some parts of its body with pus. Although I was wearing a gas mask, I still smelled a rotten smelly leaf. Its head was still on the face of a bug, but its mouth was cracked at a strange angle, smiling ferociously, and black fangs were exposed in its mouth.
This smile is like those who died of the Yellow River Dragon Coffin.
I stood in the center in a daze, so I was afraid that I could run away if I wanted to pull out my legs, but I couldn't move.
Lao Xu? Huang Zhihua's scream came from my side, and then a figure rushed up and kicked the human-shaped cockroach monster in front of me hard. I suddenly heard a "puff" sound. The cockroach monster retreated several steps back, and a big hole broke into the abdomen. The pus flowed everywhere, and the smell was extremely stenched.
But at this moment, a miserable green shadow suddenly pounced on Huang Zhihua's back. I hurriedly waved my sword and slashed hard at the miserable green shadow-
"Wuwuwu" My bronze ancient sword flashed by, and the miserable green ghost disappeared in front of my eyes.
"Be careful!" Huang Zhihua screamed. Almost at the same time, he had already arrived at the gun. Without any hesitation, the gunshot sounded, and the bullets almost hit my scalp and almost shot them out.
"Damn you want to kill yourself for money?" The young master's scolding and the girl's scream came from behind me.
"Old Xu, save the young master!" Huang Zhihua screamed in surprise when facing me.
I was busy waving the ancient bronze sword in my hand and snarled towards the young master, and shouting, "Go and help the girl." In fact, I don't need to say that Huang Zhihua had already rushed towards the girl like crazy, because the two cockroaches and human-shaped monsters behind her had blocked the girl, and a claw that was like a bird's claw grabbed the girl's head hard.
"Old Xu save me" The young master's voice came with an unconcealed horror. I didn't care about so much, and I kept patting the young master's body with both hands. I was wearing anti-virus plastic gloves on my hand, which could withstand the attack of the red beetles for a while.
But there were too many bright red beetles that were attached to the corpse, and my body was quickly occupied by many beetles. The result was that I was unable to help the young master, but instead got trapped in.
I looked up and saw Huang Zhihua holding the scared girl in one hand, holding a gun in the other hand, and holding a large stone pillar with his back, fighting with four cockroaches and human-shaped monsters in a difficult position to separate.
These cockroach-shaped monsters are not afraid of bullets at all. At most, a large amount of yellow and white pus flows out, but it doesn't hinder their movements at all.
"Oh my God, I don't want to die here." The young master waved his hands in panic and slapped the bright red beetle on his body.
I could only smile bitterly in my heart - although I had known that Ying Kunlun Feng's eyes would have many mechanisms, but we never dreamed that it was so powerful. As soon as we entered, we didn't even see what the coffin looked like, and we were attacked by these terrifying corpse insects.
It’s over, and now my body is covered with countless corpse insects like the young master. Although we are wearing superior quality water sluts, we have the gas mask on our heads, and we are wearing special boots on our feet, which can stop these corpse insects for a period of time, but how long can it last?
Ten minutes? Twenty minutes, or one hour?
Looking up, Huang Zhihua was in danger. He was dealing with three cockroaches and human-shaped monsters alone, and he was also ignoring the other. The girl was chased by a monster and ran around, crying while running.
I don’t know why, but it can be regarded as a critical moment of life and death. I actually thought that in Shahe Town that day, I saw something that the girl shouldn’t have seen on her body, and she actually asked me quietly - is it good-looking?
Is it good? I don't know, but now when I heard the girl's sad and desperate cry, my mind rumbling, I hurriedly threw myself to the ground, rolled to the ground, rolled toward the girl, and at the same time, my feet were trying hard, the target was the cockroach humanoid monster chasing him. The bronze ancient sword in my hand flashed a dazzling cold light and cut it at the foot of the cockroach humanoid monster.
With a "bang", the cockroach-shaped monster had no idea to avoid it. I cut off my feet with one sword and fell softly to the ground.
But at the same time - I couldn't help but be stunned. One of the cockroach-shaped monsters was wearing shoes on one of their feet. Although they had been corroded severely, I could vaguely see that it should be a pair of travel shoes.
My mind was unable to turn around when I was wearing travel shoes symbolizing modern people on the feet of rotten books that appeared in the tomb that had been buried for a thousand years.
"Old Xu, you are so smart." Huang Zhihua's voice came from beside me, and he also fell to the ground, holding a cold sword on the object and chopped it at the foot of another cockroach humanoid monster.
Now that I am still on the ground, I immediately understand this - no matter whether these are people, corpses, or monsters, as long as they cut off their feet, they will naturally lose the ability to walk, and the threat to us will be greatly reduced. I am not smart, I just worried about the girl, and in desperation, just happened to hit me by chance.
Seeing Huang Zhihua doing the same thing, I also rolled around in a hurry, targeting the feet of another cockroach humanoid monster. After all, these monsters were dead bodies and didn't know how to hide. The four monsters were quickly cut off their feet and fell to the ground. Due to the appearance just now, I was surprised and paid attention to the other cockroach humanoid monster. Unfortunately, their pairs were rotten, so naturally they didn't have shoes to wear, so I couldn't tell the reason.
After the four cockroaches and human-shaped monsters were cut by the two of us, their bodies were still twisting and struggling on the ground, but they could no longer attack us. I couldn't help but relax and suddenly realized that there seemed to be fewer bright red beetles on my body. When I moved my heart, I immediately realized that I was crushing many bright red beetles to death while rolling on the ground. These beetles usually relied on corpses and were very violently toxic and aggressive, but because we had relatively good protection, the corpses themselves were relatively weak, but they were large in number.
The young master also imitated me and rolled on the ground in a hurry, but the boy didn't have any eyes. He didn't notice it and actually rolled next to a cockroach humanoid monster. After the cockroach humanoid monster was cut off by Huang Zhihua and I, he kept struggling on the ground to stand up. Now he caught the young master and immediately grabbed it tightly.
"Ah..." The young master screamed in horror, waving the engineer shovel in his hand and smashing it on the head of the cockroach humanoid monster. However, the monster had become a corpse after all, and had no pain. No matter how powerful he smashed it, it would not let go.
I saw the hideous and terrifying smile on the face of the cockroach humanoid monster, and my mouth seemed to want to bite the young master's neck. I didn't care about being afraid and hurriedly snatched it over. The bronze ancient sword in my hand slashed around, almost cutting the cockroach humanoid monster into pieces. Huang Zhihua also came to help. Finally, he rescued the young master from the cockroach's ghost claws...
We were busy filming the former residence. With the help of Huang Zhihua and the girl, we finally cleaned up the bright red beetles on our bodies.
"What is this..." the young master gasped and asked in a panting and in shock.
What? I don't know what it is, but I know in my heart that the danger has not passed yet. I just floated above our heads, like a ghost, and lurked in a corner here, ready to attack us at any time, turning us into corpses, or even turning into something like the cockroach human-shaped monster...
"Strange and strange!" Huang Zhihua held a military bayonet in his hand, and was also panting like a cow. He asked in a frightened state: "This is a thousand-year-old tomb, why are there rotten corpses?"
Yes, this is a thousand-year-old tomb. If the corpse was not installed in a good coffin, even the bones would have rotted long ago. Why would there be corpses that were not completely decayed?
I looked down at the four cockroach-shaped monsters scattered around us, all of which were covered with yellow and white pus, which was extremely smelly. Thinking of the shoe I just saw, I felt aroused, and frowned and said, "They may not be ancient products..."
The young master took a big breath: "Old Xu, are you crazy? It's not an ancient product, could this be..."
Someone here comes one step ahead of us... Maybe he is walking another intersection, but unfortunately they are unable to go out after they come in. I explained that there is not necessarily only one entrance for the large ancient tomb. Old man Nanchuizi can find Ying Kunlun Fengyan, and naturally there are other experts who can find another entrance. This is not uncommon.
Huang Zhihua looked at me in confusion and asked, "Old Xu, just because of these semi-rotten corpses, I'm afraid that someone else would enter?"
I nodded and said what I had just heard, and only heard Huang Zhihua, the young master was stunned - Don’t know how to go early, but in fact it was still too late.
It's over... The young master said to himself, this time it's over. If someone moves all the treasures away, wouldn't we have a waste of time? He really wants money and lives. He just came back from the gates of hell, but he was thinking about the treasures again.
The girl who was so scared that she was shook her head and said, "It is absolutely impossible for someone to take the lead before us." Someone can come in, but not necessarily go out."
I don't understand why the girl has such confidence, but the current priority is not to discuss this, but to find a way out quickly.
At this moment, a sob sound came from my ears, it was so desolate...
I was shocked. I heard this damn cry several times, and it was all caused by the miserable green ghost. I suddenly looked up and sure enough, a miserable green shadow flew around the stone pillars above my head, and then flew towards the side.
I didn't know what I thought, but I followed without hesitation. When I moved, the young master, Huang Zhihua and the girl naturally followed.
The young master looked up at the miserable green ghost floating above our heads, and asked me in a low voice: "Old Xu, are you crazy? This thing..." He said, gesturing and pointed at the top of his head.
I didn't say anything, but shook my head at the young master, staring at the miserable green ghost. This time, the miserable green ghost did not take the opportunity to attack us, but kept flying to the opposite wall. Just as the four of us and eight eyes were watching, it suddenly turned around and crashed into the opposite wall, which was astonishingly fast.
Then—under our eyes, it disappeared inexplicably on the stone wall.
The four of us looked at me and I looked at you, and they felt very uncomfortable. The young master couldn't help but ask me in a low voice: "What's this thing? Lao Xu, you are knowledgeable, do you know?"
I sighed and whispered for a while: "I guess it is... the upper corpse among the three corpses..."
Huang Zhihua asked me in confusion, there are really three corpse gods? I don’t know how to answer this question, yes or no. In ordinary cases, I don’t believe there are three corpse gods, but this is an ancient tomb, a thousand years ago, and no matter what happens, it will be born.
"What should I do now?" asked me. I know what the girl means. The passage we entered was blocked. Now we have no hesitation and have to explore further into the depths of the tomb just so that we can go out.
I sorted out the chaotic thoughts in my mind, thought for a while and said, "According to the symmetrical Yuan Li, there should be another way out on the stone wall on this side, and now we can basically guarantee that in addition to the four of us, others have entered this tomb. No matter how they come in with the mentality, they should say so when they are alive. It doesn't matter whether they can go out now. It's important - there is another way out here."
The girl seemed to be much calmer now and nodded busyly. The young master and Huang Zhihua were busy echoing, but the young master was the young master. The dog couldn't change his habit of eating shit. He actually smiled nervously and came to me and whispered: "The capable ones work harder, Lao Xu, since you are so smart, then the difficult task of opening the stone chamber will be handed over to you."
I couldn't help rolling my eyes at him and sneered, "If you don't want to die here, don't be lazy. It's important to find a way out quickly. The green ghost may come again at any time." I was scared by me, and the young master immediately ran to Shibiqian in a hurry, stroking around, looking for the so-called way out, but the stone wall is smooth, where is there any way out? I stood at Shibiqian for a long time, and I was puzzled. Even if this tomb consumes a lot of artificial craftsmen, it is impossible to find such a large complete stone wall? Even if there is such a large stone wall, how did ancient people transport it here?
Could it be that ancient people really had the ability to move mountains and fill the sea? I was thinking about it in my heart while carefully observing this stone wall.
Huang Zhihua gently patted my shoulder and asked in a low voice: "Old Xu, do you think the entrance to this stone wall is related to the thirteen stone pillars?"
Stone pillars? Not bad - the stone pillars in this place are indeed strange, but the entrance to the stone wall is definitely nothing to do with the stone wall. I always look at these thirteen stone pillars a little confused. Thirteen, if the stone pillars in the middle are not considered as the flower, then they are the twelve twelve stems and branches?
After Huang Zhihua said this, the young master seemed to have some realization and pulled my clothes and asked, "Old Xu, do you think these twelve pillars represent the twelve constellations? The one in the middle is "You're your head! I cursed angrily. The constellation is something from foreigners, and his association power is really not ordinary and rich. While I was talking to the young master, the girl touched the stone wall. The stone wall was as smooth as a mirror. Through the light of the flashlight in our hands, the girl's shadow was printed on the stone wall, looking a little ghostly.
"Brother Xu, come here quickly." Suddenly, the girl screamed in surprise as if there was something happening. Before she could finish her words, a sharp sound of iron chain pulling came from our ears. Along with the wall that was originally as smooth as a mirror and without a crack, it slowly cracked a gap to both sides.
Way out?
My young master and I looked at each other and were very happy. Unexpectedly, the girl was found by the girl fumbled so randomly. However, before she could speak, the girl exclaimed in vain: "Brother Xu, save me."
In the cracks in the wall and in the unknown space, a flashing red blush pounced on the girl, bright and eye-catching, and very strange. Although I had not been able to see clearly what it was for a while, I already understood in my heart that this thing - I am afraid it was the little red beetle that attacked us just now. Although this thing is only the size of a nail, it has been overwhelming. And I can see that this thing is probably born with a corpse. Once bitten, the consequences will be unpredictable.
To be continued...
