Zhou Shi’s scalp felt numb. Is that a human or a ghost?
But when he saw the figure coming out of the water bag as if giving birth, his doubts disappeared.
The skin is so pale that blood vessels can be seen, and the upper body is only half the size of an ordinary person, but it is connected to limbs that are more than ten feet long. And on the neck that is so fat that it is folded into several lines, there is a fish face.
No doubt, not human.
The pale and slender long arm was raised high, and then quickly swung down, almost hitting Zhou Shi.
"It's so fast, and the arms are too long, so it's hard to accurately judge the attack range!"
He quickly retreated, turned the bead, and took out Mr. Hu.
"Wait a minute... if I put Yin wine in Lady Xu's cave, will it attract something else?"
The thought flashed across his mind, and the spider-like monster was walking towards him, stretching out its long arms to catch him.
"Open the monument!"
Zhou Shi easily dodged the long arm that looked extremely clumsy in the small space, and hit it on the chest and abdomen with a palm, causing its body to explode!
"Oh, it looks scary, but it's just paper. Just a few more..."
He was about to walk around the slender limbs scattered on the ground when he looked up and saw three monsters with the same pale skin but different deformities standing in front of him.
I'm just talking! Zhou Shi used both palms to strike preemptively, knocking down the monster whose belly was as bloated as three months pregnant, and then turned around to fight the other two. One of them only had one arm long enough to wrap itself into a cocoon, while the other
With a big head as tall as a person.
"This Lady Xu really has no sense of aesthetics at all. The housekeepers are all crooked melons and cracked jujubes." He scattered the three monsters and continued to move forward.
"It seems that they noticed my intrusion, and the monsters guarding the cave took action... This also shows that the life gate of Lady Xu is indeed hidden in this cave! As long as it is found and defeated, Lady Xu will be severely damaged! <
/p>
"But..." He looked at the army of monsters swarming towards him and sighed in his heart, "This is nothing!"
After a while, he was covered in pus from the monster's body. Looking at the deformed limbs on the ground, he was panting again and again.
After walking forward for more than fifty steps, no monster appeared again, and no water bag containing the monster was seen.
But there seemed to be a relatively open space ahead, and... Zhou Shi frowned and stepped forward quickly, holding the fire folding piece.
The cave he just walked through was more like a passage, leading to this space filled with white balls. Zhou Shi looked up and saw that these balls were densely intertwined in countless layers. The pile was more abundant than a two-story building.
The virtue is still high.
He moved close to the wall and moved to the ball to make sure there were no monsters ambushing him in the dark.
The Yin Fire illuminated the surface of the ball, and he found that there was a shadow inside the ball... a person curled up in a ball?
He knocked the ball at the bottom and found that the shell was very hard, like an eggshell. But the balls piled on top were somewhat elastic. The highest ball that he could reach with his tiptoes was as soft as a rubber ball, and the inside was soft.
Shadows are also clearer.
"I understand...it turns out that this is the place where those monsters were born!"
Bring the corpse into this space, wrap it in the egg, and slowly change its shape. The egg gradually matures, moves upward, and then is transported to the rock wall of the cave, turning into the monsters Zhou Shi just saw. p>
He only listened to Lu Tao's description before, which biased his judgment. The water bag was not a living person, but a monster.
Lu Tao and others may have died in the cave, so they could have the memory of the cave and escape to the inn in the form of ghosts. As for himself, it was because of the shark tears protecting his body that he did not drown in the water and became a
Living people visiting this "monster factory".
"Ms. Xu herself was suppressed in the river, so she gave birth to monsters to protect herself? But why not send monsters to deal with the four of us instead of just using floating corpses?
"Using corpses to give birth to monsters is similar to refining walking corpses, but the strength of the two is really different. After all, Xu Niangniang is an earth god who enjoys incense, how could she give birth to such a weak subordinate... Ah, maybe the floating corpse is
The mass-produced ones attack in haste after a short period of gestation in the eggs, while the monsters in the cave are just premature babies, used to block me, the intruder. The real mature monsters are..."
Zhou Shi's heart trembled.
The exit of the cave.
"I remember that some fish will hatch their eggs inside their bodies, and wait for the babies in the eggs to mature before releasing them... It is very similar to the process of monster pregnancy! In this way, there are more powerful monsters waiting outside, waiting to fight.
..."
He made up his mind, mobilized his internal strength, and hit the egg with his hand!
"I don't know what the fighting situation on the water is going to be like. It would be terrible if fully mature monsters were released! We must quickly eliminate the 'babies' that may exist! As for these eggs, we cannot keep them!"
The pile of eggs collapsed instantly and shattered into pieces on the ground. The embryos inside also flowed out and lay at his feet.
His inference was correct. The embryo in the bottom egg still had a humanoid shape and was even wearing clothes. But the top egg already had the appearance of a monster.
After the egg mountain collapsed, Zhou Shi suddenly felt a tremor all over his body. He immediately looked at the Qi and found that there was a intersection of Yin and Yang on the rock wall covered with eggs. Just looking at it gave him a slight headache. p>
"What?"
He stepped over the body, groped with his hands on the rock wall, and indeed touched a smooth bump.
"It seems like...a ball? Why is it emitting such abnormal energy? And it is hidden behind the egg mountain. Could it be the source of energy for the eggs to mature?"
I guess so, this place is wet and cold, how are the eggs going to hatch?
In this case, it should be destroyed to avoid future troubles!
Zhou Shi tried it and found that the inner elixir was stuck in the rock wall and could not be dug out at all.
"It may be possible to use the hand of a book tablet, but that will damage the bead. Wouldn't it be a pity to destroy such a rare thing?"
Zhou Shi thought for a while, then used his unusual stone-piercing hand to sink his fingers into the rock wall, and easily removed the beads.
"This is still useful..."
As soon as he stuffed the beads into his pocket, the ground beneath his feet vibrated, turning upside down for a moment, and the entire space turned upside down!
"Ugh!"
Zhou Shi didn't react in time and was thrown to the other rock wall, causing severe pain all over his body.
The corpses and monsters also rolled over and fell on top of him.
"What's going on! Does the cave itself have a defensive function... Hey, I just thought that the monster's gestation is like hatching fish eggs in the body... If this bead is the inner elixir of Empress Xu, plus the abnormal movement just now... Then,
Am I in Empress Xu’s belly?!”
He didn't have time to be surprised, so he quickly pulled away the heavy objects on his body and looked for a way to escape.
"Huo Zhezi, where is Huo Zhezi?" He slapped his forehead. At this time, Huo Zhezi is gone!
Damn it!
At this moment, a glimmer of light attracted his attention. He turned around and looked——
The sight in front of him shocked his heart, then made him happy, and then he felt chilled all over.
A woman dressed in white stood in front of her, pointing to the huozhezi lying at her feet.
