Just when everyone was staring nervously ahead, the old man's somewhat weak voice rang out.
I looked back and almost didn't laugh out loud, because at this time, the old man was still pinned down by the little guy, half of his body was smashed into the soil, and he looked in a miserable state.
After hearing Lao Dao's words, the little guy came to his senses, jumped down on Lao Dao's chest, reached out and grabbed Lao Dao's arm, and pulled him out of the mud.
"Sorry, brother, I was so nervous that I forgot about you." The little guy said to the old man.
The old man patted the dirt on his body in a somewhat embarrassed manner. Although he wanted to scold his mother, he had a good relationship with the little guy. Besides, now that the little brother had apologized, it was really hard to say anything else.
I ignored the old guy, but stared closely at the thick fog in front of me, and asked the little guy: "What's in it?"
The little guy frowned, and then said: "The fog is too heavy, so I can't see clearly, but it looks like a centipede."
Centipede?
Hearing what the little guy said, I looked back at him with some uncertainty, thinking to myself, this guy is not joking. A centipede can have such a big battle and can beat you back.
"That centipede is huge." the little guy added.
"Brother, are you out of your mind?" the old man asked the little guy.
Creak, creak!!
But as soon as the old man finished speaking, there were several strange sounds coming from the front.
Then the thick black fog billowed, and then a strange-shaped head poked out of the black fog.
Looking at that head, all of us were stunned.
Because that’s really the head of a centipede!
The most important thing is that this centipede is as thick as a bucket, its armor is purple-red, and its tentacles are like sharp sickles.
The two teeth on the mouth are as sharp as scimitars.
Creak, creak.
The big centipede that stuck out its head moved its mouth and made a series of noises. Looking at this big centipede, I couldn't help but gasp.
This damn thing is too big!
This centipede is taller than me when it stands straight up, and is about the same thickness as a bucket. How can any centipede grow to such a big size?
But I calmed down in shock. After all, this is southern Xinjiang, the home of the ancient Miao people.
In Liangcheng, I saw the giant human-faced snake fed by the ancient Miao people with living souls.
These things are left over from ancient times and are regarded as sacred objects by the ancient Miao people.
The snake in Liangcheng should be one of them, but it had been chopped off by a piece of wood.
The centipede in front of me should have the same origin as the big snake.
It's just that its momentum looks much stronger than that of the human-faced snake.
I raised my eyebrows. The human-faced snake was still in Liangcheng and was sacrificed with its soul by the two ancient Miao people. It had not yet fully recovered its climate, so it did not return here.
There is only one reason why this centipede appears here. This centipede has been completely awakened, so it is much more powerful than the human-faced snake.
"This should be the legendary blood-eyed centipede!" At this moment, the old man who looked at the centipede suddenly said.
"Blood-eyed centipede, what is it?" I asked.
"It is said that Chi You led the Jiuli people of the ancient Miao tribe to fight against the Yellow Emperor for the world. He had eighteen shamans under his command, who were the ancestors of all shamans in the world, and were known as the eighteen ancestral witches.
These eighteen wizards came from eighteen tribes under Chi You, and each of these eighteen tribes had their own totem sacred objects. These sacred objects were fed by the wizards. One of the tribe's totems was the blood-eyed centipede.
If I guess correctly, this centipede should be that one."
The old Taoist looked at the centipede in front of him and said solemnly.
Hearing what Lao Dao said, I nodded. Lao Dao has been traveling around all his life and has seen much more than me. His words should be right.
This centipede should be the blood-eyed centipede that the ancient Miao people regarded as a sacred object.
At this time, I also thought of the ancient Miao people in Liangcheng. They were probably ordered to collect living souls in Liangcheng to awaken the human-faced snake.
At the beginning, the ancient Miao people had eighteen sacred objects. Could it be that those ancient Miao people collected living souls in eighteen places, and Liangcheng was just one of them?
Thinking of this, my heart tightened. Those two ancient Miao people in Liangcheng alone killed many people. If they were really scattered in eighteen cities, how many people would have died!
The old Taoist seemed to see what I was thinking, shook his head and said: "Boss, you don't have to worry too much. The great battle between Chi You and Huang Di was so shocking that the world was turned upside down. I don't know how many of Chi You's generals were killed.
Not many of those eighteen evil creatures survived."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Chi You was defeated in that battle, and the Gu Miao and Jiuli clans were almost wiped out. I think those evil creatures should have been killed as well.
At this time, the blood-eyed centipede held its head high and its tentacles were waving constantly, making people look a little numb.
And on its forehead, a pair of eyes also opened, like two lanterns in the black mist. No wonder it is called the Blood-Eyed Centipede.
The giant centipede kept making clicking sounds from its mouth, then it poked its head out and rushed towards us.
"Idiot!"
Seeing this situation, the old man shouted and hid at the back as a habit.
Duanmuqing raised the huge Xingtian Ax again, preparing to fight.
It's just that the little guy moved faster than him, and he faced the blood-eyed centipede with a whoosh.
The little guy in the air headed towards the head of the blood-eyed centipede.
The blood-eyed centipede waved its two scimitar-like teeth on its mouth and bit down on the little guy.
The little guy frowned, spun violently in the air, and immediately dodged the attack. He came to the top of the centipede's head, and then punched it downwards.
"boom!"
The terrifying punch directly knocked the blood-eyed centipede to the ground, and half of the centipede's body sank into the ground.
Just now, the little guy was attacked by this centipede when he was dealing with those puppets. Now he was feeling annoyed, so he showed no mercy at all.
At this time, he saw the centipede being smashed to the ground. Duanmuqing knew that his opportunity had come, he roared and took a step forward.
Duanmuqing took a step forward and waved his hand, and the huge ax struck at the centipede's head.
Click, click, click....
The blood-eyed centipede, whose body sank into the ground, seemed to feel the danger. It twisted its body, and then like an earthworm, it swished into the ground and disappeared.
Duanmuqing's ax fell down and cut directly into the soil, but the blood-eyed centipede had long since disappeared.
