Wu Xiaoxie discovered that the four corpse turtle kings squatting at the mouth of the Qilin Blood Bottle had not moved for a long time since they fell.
There was no way to continue the stalemate, so I tried to blow a breath over there, but it still didn't move.
This is a bit strange.
Wu Xiaoxie gritted his teeth, pulled the cotton off the cotton swab, rolled it into a long strip, and then tentatively poked one of the bugs that landed on the mouth of the bottle.
As a result, something unexpected happened to him.
The little red bug actually fell directly from the mouth of the bottle and fell to the ground with its six claws pointing upward.
This corpse turtle king actually died at some point!
Wu Xiaoxie poked several other ones, and the results were all without exception.
He was greatly shocked, holy shit, he always thought that the blood of wooden fish was just for insect repellent, but he didn’t expect that it could kill insects just by its smell.
Xie Yuchen felt a little uncomfortable after not hearing any movement for so long.
"Wu Xie?" Xie Yuchen called tentatively, "Wu Xie, how are you doing?"
Wu Xiaoxie came to his senses and responded quickly, "I'm fine, those bugs are all dead."
Xie Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief and continued to crawl inside.
Wu Xiaoxie burned the bugs and things that had come into contact with them, and sterilized the mouth of the bottle before covering it and putting it away.
While crawling, the lamp flickered, and Xie Yuchen's attention was suddenly attracted by something above him.
Wu Xiaoxie saw that the shadow of the lamp in the darkness had stopped moving, so he asked him if it was the end.
"I haven't arrived yet, but I found that the things hanging here are a bit strange." Xie Yuchen said, "This is not a stone."
Not a stone?
"What is that?" Wu Xiaoxie became nervous.
The light swept a few times, and Xie Yuchen's voice sounded faint, "I can't see clearly, it's hanging very high, it seems like... the skin of some animal?"
The shadow of the lamp swayed on the ceiling, and the sound of breathing in the gap became heavier and heavier.
"Be careful. You hear that you are breathing like a broken bellows. You should calm down first. I'm afraid you might accidentally break another jar in a hurry." Wu Xiaoxie immediately said to Xie Yuchen.
Hearing this, Xie Yuchen was stunned for a moment and wondered: "I'm not breathing. Didn't this sound come from you?"
"I just stayed here the whole time without even raising my legs. Where could I be breathing like this?" Wu Xiaoxie was also stunned, and then immediately reacted, picked up the short-handled shotgun and aimed into the gap.<
/p>
Xie Yuchen heard the sound of the gun being loaded and was silent for a moment. The sound of breathing was still there, but affected by the echo, he could not hear where the sound came from.
After listening quietly for a while, Wu Xiaoxie calmed down and said, "I can probably guess what it is."
"What?" Xie Yuchen was still shining his flashlight on it.
"Turn off the light." Wu Xiaoxie said, "The one making this sound is probably the pheasant neck I told you about before. It is imitating your breathing. This kind of snake has phototaxis. Just stay quiet. I think
Find a way to bring it out and solve it."
Xie Yuchen was silent for a moment, said "Okay" and turned off the flashlight.
The space in the gap was suddenly shrouded in oppressive darkness, leaving only one strange gasp after another.
There are hanging chains and stone restrictions inside, and you can't shoot because the iron sand may accidentally touch the copper nail mechanism on the wall. Once the stone falls, the little flowers lying on the jar will be smashed into stuffing.
.
Wu Xiaoxie came to a spacious enough place and lit up five cold fireworks in a row, illuminating the entire stone room as bright as day. Then he retreated to a corner and waited quietly with his gun raised.
He kept staring closely at the opening of the gap, half-squinting his eyes, and sweat dripping from his forehead.
Several cold fireworks burned together, making his eyes dazzled, and the air was filled with a strong and pungent smell of burning metal.
In a daze, he felt a red light flashing in front of his eyes, and subconsciously aimed the gun at it.
As a result, I saw a blood-red cockscomb snake as thick as an arm, landing on a cold firework closest to the gap. It tilted its head and stared at the burning flames curiously.
Wu Xiaoxie calmed down, pointed the muzzle of the gun at its head, and was about to shoot, when he saw its upper body suddenly stood up, its flaming red combs trembling, and it made gasping sounds.
As in the Snake Swamp, this snake can always imitate the most frequently used sounds made by other creatures.
Wu Xiaoxie no longer hesitated, and pulled the trigger with his index finger. With a "bang" sound, the entire snake body around the neck of the pheasant was instantly blown away by the iron sand ejected from the barrel, and fell to the wall behind. Blood spattered all over the place.
land.
After waiting quietly for a few seconds, it was confirmed that the pheasant's neck, which had fallen into two halves and fell against the wall, was no longer moving. Wu Xiaoxie just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly a shiver ran down his spine, and a creepy and ominous premonition surged into his heart. p>
Without enough time to think, he reflexively jumped forward with the gun in hand. A strong wind blew by, and he immediately heard a dull crashing sound behind him.
The moment he rolled on the spot and stood up, he didn't even see what the opponent was, and he had already shot him out with one shot.
Thanks to the exercise during this period, his body's nerve reflexes were so fast that he found it incredible.
He thought that the shot would definitely hit, but when he looked again, he found that there was nothing on the wall except a few drops of blood spattered on it and traces of gunpowder collision.
My heart suddenly screamed, "It's broken, that thing has been hidden."
Under the blazing light of the cold flames, the entire stone chamber was empty except for the body of the dead snake.
He immediately found a wall to lean against and carefully searched around the shaft and bearings.
His eyes flickered, and he suddenly felt something was wrong. When he looked again, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The dead pheasant neck body in the corner disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He immediately realized that the pheasant here had more than one neck.
The air fell into a dead silence, and the sound of water flowing in my ears became clearer and clearer, mixed with an inexplicable rustling sound, as if someone was whispering.
Wu Xiaoxie frowned. He seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before.
The dense rustling sound is amplified by the echo and becomes somewhat ethereal.
As he listened, he felt a little dizzy, as if he was drunk, and wanted to lie down and take a nap immediately.
The sound of splashing water came from the well mouth.
In a daze, Wu Xiaoxie saw a human-shaped thing, covered in black hair, standing upright from the water.
The rustling sound gradually became clearer with the appearance of this thing.
Wu Xiaoxie stood frozen on the spot with a dull face, one hand in his pocket, indifferent to the slow approach of the thing.
Seeing that Wu Xiaoxie had no reaction, the thing gradually became bolder.
The big mouth covered by hair opened wider and wider, like a deep black well, from which a red tongue protruded, like the Komodo dragon catching the scent of its prey. The tip of the tongue trembled, and it actually crawled out of the big mouth.
came out, and then another one appeared.
It’s now——
Wu Xiaoxie, who was originally in a daze, suddenly focused his eyes, threw out his hands from his pockets, and then quickly leaned against the wall and knelt down with his head in his hands.
A flash of silver light hit the black-furred monster directly and accurately because the distance was less than three meters.
There was a loud bang and blood and flesh splattered.
Jie Yuchen had just fallen into the water through the clay pot and got up. Before he had time to observe the situation inside, he heard a deafening explosion from outside.
As if there was an earthquake, the entire stone chamber was shaking violently, the iron chains were crackling and rubbing, the stone hanging on the top of the crack also began to shake, and the jars underneath were also buzzing at the sound.
Xie Yuchen had no idea what was happening outside. Fortunately, the explosion only sounded once, and the surrounding area quickly returned to calm, and the stone above the pot did not fall.
He used his flashlight to shine outside the gap, but the visibility was limited, and he couldn't see anything except the thick smoke coming in from outside.
"Wu Xie? Wu Xie." He tried calling twice, but received no response.
Pursing his lips, as if he had made up his mind, he turned around and looked at the stone chamber here, and then stepped into the pool.
The water is not shallow, it is directly up to the knees.
The ground under the water looks like a funnel. The water gets deeper as you go in. Under the water in the center of the stone chamber, there is a huge spherical thing with iron chains spreading around it like a spider web.
Jie Yuchen got closer step by step, and finally he held his breath and dived into the water, only then could he fully see the whole picture of the huge creature.
It was an indescribable bronze spherical object. In addition to the complicated and old-fashioned patterns, the irregular surface also had countless holes. An iron chain stretched out from each hole, leading to a small hole on the stone wall of the pool.
.
The chain pulled in through the gap from the bearing of the stone chamber outside is also connected to the hole of this strange hornet's nest-like ball nest.
The wound on his shoulder seemed to have opened, and Xie Yuchen felt a stinging pain. The pain in the wound became more and more unbearable in the cold water.
He emerged from the water and climbed onto the narrow shore.
In order to reduce the weight, he only brought a rope and a piton with him. After looking around, he found a supporting stone beam running across the top of the stone chamber, and he had an idea.
He untied the rope from his waist, tied the piton to the end, and then raised his hand to throw it. The piton took the rope and flew towards the stone beam, flying from one side to clasp the other side.
To test the strength, Xie Yuchen climbed up the stone beam on the rope, then took off the pitons, tied a few knots in the rope to the stone beam, and then slid down the rope.
Outside the gap, Wu Xiaoxie curled up, lying on his side on the ground, with a splitting headache.
Before the explosion, he was originally lying on the ground. However, the air wave generated by the explosion mixed with the smelly blood was directly lifted up and hit the wall.
The impact on the iron plate on his back was so severe that he almost choked. The severe pain made him suspect that his shoulder blades had been cracked by the fall, and the gas mask on his face was also washed away. p>
Before he could recover from the pain, he suddenly felt a chill under his nose. Then, a spicy and pungent smell was inhaled into his nasal cavity. With the airflow, it instantly surged to his nasopharynx, creating a sour and refreshing numbing sensation.
He rushed straight into Tianling Gai and burst into tears.
He covered his nose, feeling an indescribable discomfort in his head, severe dizziness, nausea, and finally retching.
He couldn't help but wanted to shout, but found that his tongue and throat were all numb. He didn't know what was wrong with him. His fingers accidentally touched something, and the sharp touch of his fingertips told him that
It's a pottery fragment.
He felt that he was about to die from discomfort, and his only last thought was to write down the situation here and leave a message for Xiaohua.
He held the pottery fragment tightly, ignoring the pain of being scratched in his palm. Write it down, write it down quickly.
In a state of confusion, he opened his eyes in confusion, feeling that the entire space in front of him was floating, with several gray shadows facing away from what he was doing.
Wu Xiaoxie tried his best to open his eyes wide and raise his neck, trying to see clearly who the other person was.
He heard the gurgling water, the heartbeat, and even the blood flowing under his skin. He could clearly feel it.
But at this time, his brain could no longer think, and his whole body fell into a state of stupor. His eyelids blinked slowly, and finally closed slowly.
He could feel that after this state lasted for a long, long time, someone seemed to come to him and move his body.
After that, the dizzy and uncomfortable feeling slowly disappeared, and he fell asleep completely.
When he regained consciousness again, he felt warm all over his body.
I barely opened my eyes and saw two familiar figures sitting next to me.
Maybe it was because his brain had not recovered from the slowness, but the first thing he said was, "Are there electric blankets in the underworld?"
Xie Yuchen looked at his demented expression and twitched the corner of his mouth.
The guy next to me laughed at this sentence.
Wu Xiaoxie turned her eyes and stared at him, "Bad beast, what are you laughing at?"
Nie Xiaoba: "..."
Xie Yuchen suddenly laughed, very heartily.
Nie Xiaoba was a little dumbfounded and huddled on the side in frustration, neither laughing nor crying.
He just killed a pig, why is he no longer a human being?
"Are you feeling better?" Xie Yuchen helped Wu Xiaoxie up and let him lean on his backpack.
Wu Xiaoxie's mind finally turned around. He blinked and lifted his arms and legs through the blanket. He was relieved after confirming that there were no missing parts except for soreness and swelling.
Seeing that his condition was getting better, Jie Yuchen fed him some water and said, "I don't know how you made such a big noise outside. When I came out, you were already lying in the corner, trembling all over.
Like an epileptic seizure."
"Oh, by the way, I found this in your nostril." Xie Yuchen used tweezers to hold a white rice-sized object in front of Wu Xiaoxie's eyes and let him take a closer look.
Wu Xiaoxie squinted his eyes and looked at it, and found that there was a hole in the little thing, "What is this?"
"At that time, your nose was bleeding and you couldn't stop it. When you looked carefully, you found that this thing was stuck inside."
Xie Yuchen smiled strangely, "You are unlucky too. The snake was blown up and its fangs flew into your nose."
