"If we hadn't accidentally entered here by accident, I'm afraid we would all have died in the sword forest." Zhang Linzhi, a short-haired girl with dirt on her face and dirty body, with tears in her eyes, "But escaping here is not better than being outside.
How much, Meng Chao died to protect me, and he was still controlled by those bugs, wuwu..."
As he said this, he couldn't control his emotions anymore and cried.
The three of them stayed in this place for a long time, and there was also an injured Zhang Yuan. Zhang Linzhi did not dare to cry, and could not cry. He kept his emotions suppressed in his heart.
Now that Ning Chen and the others have arrived, the situation has improved, and her mind has relaxed, and she can no longer suppress her inner emotions.
Not only Zhang Linzhi, Lin Yin is also similar.
At this moment, she was hugging her knees, resting her chin on them, and her hair was hanging down to cover her eyes. She seemed to be listening to Xu You's story quietly, but in fact she was crying silently, crying because of sadness and also crying because of happiness.
Sad because his teammates died, Kong Weize and Meng Chao both died.
I am happy because I did not pay wrongly after all, and Xu You is here.
"Woo..." Zhang Linzhi cried more and more fiercely. He lay on Ning Chen's shoulder and pulled Ning Chen's clothes to wipe his nose. Ning Chen was speechless and embarrassed to push away. He secretly cursed in his heart.
,Sister, this is too damaging to your image.
After a long time, Zhang Linzhi calmed down.
Lin Yin also adjusted her mood, raised her head and said to Xu You: "Thank you for coming."
Xu You said awkwardly: "No, I should be the one thanking you. Over the years..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yin interrupted: "You don't need to tell me, I already know it. I...I've been waiting for you, waiting for you to come to me."
Hearing this, Xu You's heart seemed to be clenched by a hand. His eyes turned red and he grabbed Lin Yin's little hand: "Lin Yin, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I know I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
?"
Lin Yin turned her head shyly, but did not take out her hand. She let Xu You hold her and said, "Let's wait until we get out alive."
Indeed, the situation is still not optimistic at this time.
Although this cave is safe, there are still mother worms and a group of zombies outside. The crisis has not been resolved. The top priority is how to get out of here.
Several people gathered together to discuss.
Ning Chen asked Jiang Yun: "Can you calculate the position of the formation eye? As long as we find the formation eye, we can go out."
Jiang Yun shook her head: "Give me some time, I can calculate the position of the formation eye, but not in this cave."
In fact, Jiang Yun has already tried it.
Now that she had found Lin Yin and the others, she was naturally thinking about how to leave, but she had been calculating for a long time to no avail.
This cave is very unusual. It can make the mother worm and a group of zombies fear and dare not set foot in it. It is not without reason. It also isolates the formation.
"It seems that we can only fight out." Xu You said.
As long as they leave this cave, Jiang Yun can calculate the location of the formation's eye, and then they can leave here.
But there are a group of walking corpses outside.
For a time, no one had any good ideas.
Ning Chen shook his head, put this question aside first, and asked Lin Yin: "Senior Lin Yin, what is so special about this cave that makes the walking corpses afraid to come in?"
Lin Yin turned her head and pointed to a corner of the cave: "It should be because of the things there."
Only then did Ning Chen notice that there was a door in a corner of the cave. Because the door was not conspicuous and was made of rock. It looked not much different from the cave wall, so they all ignored it.
Door, what's inside the door?
Ning Chen, Xu You, and Jiang Yun all looked at the door.
"Follow me." Lin Yin stood up and led everyone to open the door.
Everyone walked into the stone door, and there was a passage inside. After walking for a while, there was suddenly light, and the front suddenly opened up, and there was another wide space.
This wide space is larger than the previous cave. It is like an underground palace, the size of a football field. There are nine stone pillars standing there. There are some patterns carved on the stone pillars, including birds and animals, as well as strange runes.
In the middle of the nine stone pillars is a three-foot-high platform with a copper coffin placed on it.
"This..." Ning Chen was surprised and stared at the copper coffin, "Could it be that the walking corpses are afraid of this copper coffin, or maybe the things in the copper coffin?"
Not only Ning Chen, but also Xu You and Jiang Yun also thought of this at the same time.
Ning Chen asked: "What's in the copper coffin?"
Lin Yin shook her head: "I don't know, we don't dare to open it. Something that can scare so many zombies and female insects must be unusual. Opening it rashly may not be a good thing."
Ning Chen and the other three nodded.
Indeed, if you open the copper coffin without knowing what is inside, you will have unpredictable consequences.
"Corpse worm, mother worm, copper coffin..." Ning Chen's heart moved and he couldn't help but think, "Corpse worm, mother worm, are they related to this copper coffin?"
To give birth to a corpse worm, a corpse must be needed, and the mother worm is very intelligent, which is obviously very unusual, so the corpse from which it is born is definitely also extraordinary.
Ning Chen previously thought that the mother worm might be born from the corpse of the golden skeleton, because the golden skeleton was extraordinary and extremely powerful in life, so it was possible for such an unusual corpse worm to be born.
But now, he felt that he might have guessed wrong.
Of course, these are all guesses and cannot be verified.
Ning Chen observed carefully and found that the copper coffin was tightly sealed without any gaps. If the corpse inside gave birth to the female worm, how did the female worm escape?
Also, if the mother worm originated from the corpse in the copper coffin, then it belongs to the same source. Why would it be afraid of the copper coffin and not even dare to enter the cave?
Can't figure it out.
The point is, Ning Chen originally thought that there were things in the cave that the walking corpses and mother worms were afraid of, and that he and others might be able to use this to scare the walking corpses and mother worms.
But now it seems it still doesn't work.
The copper coffin could probably deter the walking corpses and female insects, but they did not dare to move the copper coffin easily because they did not know what the consequences would be.
Everyone was silent, as there seemed to be no other way.
...
Three days later, Zhang Yuyuan's injury improved a lot.
Everyone decided to go out and take a look and try to fight their way out. As long as they bought some time and allowed Jiang Yun to figure out the location of the formation, they would have a chance to leave here.
However, when they came to the entrance of the cave, everyone's hearts became cold. The outside was surrounded by walking corpses. Meng Chao was not there, but the walking corpses of human warriors who had fought with Ning Chen and the others before, as well as the terrifying jackal creatures, golden skeletons, etc. were all there. In addition,
There are dozens of walking corpses, including human warriors, skeletons, and terrifying creatures. Each of them has empty eyes, but their aura is not weak.
How to get out of here?
Everyone was helpless and retreated into the cave.
Ning Chen looked at the door leading to the sarcophagus and rushed out. Facing dozens of corpses, he would definitely have a narrow escape. It would be good to survive one or two in the end. Instead of doing that, it would be better to start with this copper coffin, although it would also be a disaster.
