Seeing that Professor Zhang was not panicking and was still looking at the potholes close to the rock wall, I held the dragon scale dagger tightly in my hand and approached the rock wall again to look at it.
The faces at the bottom of the pit had their eyes tightly closed and showed no expression.
Professor Zhang and I looked at each other, and Professor Zhang stretched out a finger to poke those faces.
My heart tightened for no reason, and I quickly grabbed Professor Zhang's hand and said, "I'll do it!" After saying that, I raised the Baipi Dragon Scale on my hand.
Professor Zhang looked at the dragon scale dagger in my hand, retracted his hand and nodded to me.
I tentatively brought the dragon scale dagger close to a relatively large circular pit, and slowly approached the strange human face at the bottom of the pit.
Just when I was about to touch that person's face, the eyes on the person's face suddenly opened wide and stared straight into my eyes.
The sudden and terrifying scene shocked me so much that I almost dropped the Hundred Dragon Scales in my hand.
That human face suddenly showed an extremely weird smile to me.
Following the smile on the person's face, I felt my feet tighten and something suddenly wrapped around my ankle.
"Ah, these flowers are all alive!" Qian Zhiqi shouted in horror, jumped up and stepped down hard.
I lowered my head and found that what was entangled in me was the corolla of the other shore flowers. I don’t know when, those flowers seemed to suddenly come to life. The corollas and stamens suddenly grew, and they tightened around my ankles like flexible ropes.
It entangled itself and spread crazily around my body.
In just an instant, my calves were already densely covered with Bana flowers.
Looking at the others, no one was much better. Xu Wenying had even been entangled by the other side of the flower to her waist. Her entire lower body was scarlet and she was standing there completely unable to move. She pulled the petals with her hands, and the petals and stamens grew longer and longer.
Long, wrapped around her arms.
In just a few seconds, she was entangled in those other shore flowers until only her head was left outside, and some of the flower stamens even tried to attract them into her eyes.
"Help me!" Xu Wenying shouted in horror.
Professor Zhang put the torch in my hand, turned around and was about to run towards Xu Wenying, but his feet were also covered with the corolla and stamens of the flower. He struggled to break away, and part of the petals and stamens broke off.
But in an instant, more petals and stamens were wrapped around it. Professor Zhang lost his balance and fell to the ground.
More and more petals of the other side flower grew longer and longer, and like a tidal wave, they entangled Professor Zhang who fell on the ground, and instantly submerged him in a sea of scarlet.
"Dad! Ugh!" Xu Wenying shouted sternly, but as soon as she made the sound, the other shore flower entangled her completely, and the more it entangled her, the whole person turned into a strange bright red chrysalis, struggling "woo woo"
A faint sound came from the chrysalis.
Those other shore flowers seem to be a little afraid of me. Except for a lot of them wrapped around my legs, there are basically no petals or stamens on my upper body.
I held a weak torch and looked at the human face on the rock wall again. I found that the human face was smiling strangely, with the corners of its mouth raised high. The other human faces at the bottom of the pit also opened their eyes and were looking at each other.
Looking straight at me, a strange smile slowly opened at the corner of his mouth.
Intuition tells me that the sudden changes in these Bana flowers are related to these human faces.
I raised the dragon scale dagger and stabbed the face of the man who was almost laughing.
"Ah——" A shrill scream came from the rock wall, and even the ground beneath our feet seemed to be shaking slightly.
The person's face spurted bright red and smelly red liquid. I quickly checked my body and narrowly avoided the red liquid spraying on my body.
As soon as my feet were loosened, I suddenly found that my legs could move again. I lowered my head and looked, and saw that the Bianhua flowers wrapped around my feet had withered into a burnt black color.
"Ouch, it suffocated me to death. I thought my old life was going to be handed down in this damn place!" Professor Zhang on the ground also made a voice. The flowers of the other side wrapped around him had basically withered, and he sat with his body propped up.
Got up.
"Dad! Are you okay?" The flowers on the other side of Xu Wenying's body were all withered and shrunk. She stretched out her hand to tear away the petals that had withered and turned into burnt black, and ran towards Professor Zhang.
I was so happy that I didn't expect that I would unintentionally figure out how to get rid of these weird Higanbana flowers.
Although the flower under our feet has withered a large area, the flower not far away is growing at a strange and crazy speed, like a red wave, rushing towards us.
I gathered my strength, raised the knife in my hand, and quickly pierced the dagger into the strange faces on the rock wall.
As the sound of "Puff, Puff" kept ringing and falling, weird screams came one after another throughout the cave, like howls of ghosts and wolves, which were cold and harsh, and could almost pierce the eardrums.
Fu Jie, Qian Zhiqi, and Zeng Yichen also took out daggers from their backpacks and stabbed the faces on the wall.
The daggers in their hands were naturally inferior to the Baipi Dragon Scales. Those weird human faces actually bit their daggers, like eating beans, and instantly chewed the daggers into scraps of iron.
"Fu Jie, use your gun! Those bullets are processed and are perfect for dealing with these faces!" I said.
Fu Jie raised his gun and shot the faces of the people in the potholes one by one.
Those strangely red Bianhua flowers withered in pieces, revealing the black-red soil.
We ran forward along the withered flowers of the other side. I clearly felt that the aura around me had changed and the roads were different.
Fortunately, the torch was not extinguished. The alcohol fire dried the already soaked cotton wick, and the fire became brighter and brighter.
The potholes on the rock wall gradually became sparse, and we ran for nearly half an hour without returning to the same spot.
"Girl, we can probably get out of this place this time!" Professor Zhang looked at me and said excitedly.
"Yeah!" I nodded to him and said, "I didn't expect you to know so many things that even I, a psychic since childhood, don't understand. If you hadn't figured out a way to see the rock wall clearly, we might have been able to see the situation clearly this time.
Not so lucky to find a solution."
Who would have thought that the light of a torch can illuminate a rock wall that cannot be illuminated by a flashlight.
He held Xu Wenying's hand tightly and said: "The more I encounter them, the more I understand. The faces of the people on the stone wall are extremely gloomy, so they can absorb the light source without temperature, but the firelight is different. No matter how cold it is,
Wherever there are sufficient conditions to ignite fire, it will dissolve the yin and evil spirits."
I do know a little bit about this. In our hometown, there has always been a custom of stepping over a fire pit before moving and the newlywed bride entering the house. In fact, it also has the meaning of exorcising evil spirits. However, I am not as thorough as Professor Zhang in times of crisis.
After a pause, Professor Zhang had a sad expression on his face and continued: "Actually, since the day I left school and joined the archaeological team, I have always imagined that one day I would die in an ancient tomb, but I didn't.
Thinking that my life is so hard and I have encountered so many things, but the Lord of Hell is too lazy to accept me, if I die in this place this time, it will not be a pity for my old bones to die. I am just sorry for my daughter and these students.
I'm even more sorry for Lao Xiao. He asked you to be handed over to me, but I didn't take good care of you. Instead, I kept asking you to find ways to save me!"
"Dad! None of us are allowed to die. Since you recognize me as your daughter, you must fulfill your responsibilities as a father. If you dare to die in this place, I will never forgive you!" Xu Wenying looked at Professor Zhang and said.
.
"Okay, none of us can die. We will go out together to treat your mother." Professor Zhang said to Xu Wenying. This chapter has been completed!
