Chapter 314: War of Atrition
As the Gu worms and the sarcophagus devoured each other, there were no fewer Gu worms, but the sarcophagus was becoming fewer and fewer, they didn't know what the Gu worms would do to the figures on the opposite side after breaking through the sarcophagus's defenses, but they felt that it was not something to look forward to.
It's curious, but it's all about staying alive.
Lu Yunfan whispered to Tie Han: "Tie Han, you and Heizi go to the right, Fei Ge and I go to the left, and if you find a mechanism or passage, you will send a code." As he spoke, he gestured two fingers to his mouth.
Tie Han understood what he meant, took Kuroko's hand, and slowly walked to the side.
Lu Yunfan didn't dare to delay, seeing that the sarcophagus was about to be bitten through, if the figure inside was the Witch King, even if he didn't come back to life, it would not be fun to release the Gu King.
The four separated and walked in opposite directions.
Lu Yunfan and Tang Yifei slowly approached the wall, and the black liquid that poured from the edge of the pool spontaneously avoided the two, but the two still didn't dare to move too fast, as if they were worried that their speed would make some Gu worms unable to dodge and cause accidental injuries.
These bugs seem to be unintelligent, but who knows if they will attack them like they did with the sarcophagus.
The walls were still smooth, and they didn't dare to continue to touch them for a long time, for fear that another sarcophagus would appear, but they had been looking for a long time on both sides, and when they searched again, they still couldn't find anything similar to a mechanism, let alone a similar exit.
Tang Yifei said: "Xiaofan, do you think it's possible, the exit is somewhere above?"
Lu Yunfan looked up, there was no difference between up and down, although it was possible, but how could they go up and look for it? They even hung ropes on the cliff outside, and at this moment, except for the flashlight in the backpack, there were only some metal parts left.
"It's not clear if it's possible, but it's a question of whether we can go up. ”
"Uh...... It seems that you have forgotten that Fei Ge is a practitioner, but what I am more disgusting about now is this black thing on the wall, if you can please these things away, I can go up and grope for it. ”
Tang Yifei glanced at the Soul Suppression Bead in his hand, but if he took the Soul Suppression Bead, Lu Yunfan would expose himself to the Gu worms, those Gu worms gnawed stones very quickly, if they pounced and gnawed people, maybe there would not even be any bones left in an instant.
But what he didn't expect was that Lu Yunfan looked at the beads in his hand, didn't even hesitate, and reached out to hand it to him.
"Uh...... Who are you?" Tang Yifei was stunned for a second, "You give me this, don't you want to live?"
"Come less, if I die, who will give you a glorious future?"
Lu Yunfan sneered, put two fingers in his mouth and whistled, Tang Yifei touched his head and smiled embarrassedly, at that moment, he was indeed a little confused, I don't know what Lu Yunfan thought, such a life-saving treasure was actually given to him without a trace of hesitation.
It wasn't until Lu Yunfan played that whistle that he realized that he was thinking too much, of course he didn't think Lu Yunfan was bad, he just felt that his head might not be suitable to be a boss, and he had made the three brothers who followed him miserable over the years, but in the end, he didn't earn much money, but brought them to the verge of death again and again, which made him feel guilty.
However, Lu Yunfan is not much better than him in this regard, no matter what happens in the future, at least this time they have reached this edge.
Tetsuhan and Kuroko walked over with surprise on their faces, "How is it, have you found the exit?"
"I came to you because I wanted to go up there and look for it. Lu Yunfan directly said the purpose of calling them over, and Heizi was a little disappointed, but he still looked up.
"In my experience, there will be no exit from above, and I think that even if there is a switch, those people will not press it in such an easy place to find. Kuroko held her chin and pretended to be deep.
"Oh, where do you think it will be?" Lu Yunfan asked.
"Needless to say, it must be in the water or in the sarcophagus, we dragged the coffin out, there must be a hole in it, we might as well go there and have a look, maybe we can find something." ”
Lu Yunfan didn't expect that Heizi usually didn't like to talk after Tang Yifei, but he had some of his own opinions when he was in danger, and what he said was quite reasonable.
The four of them returned to the sarcophagus, without their two soul beads nearby, the sarcophagus had disappeared for nearly half of the time, and there was only less than half a meter left at the moment, and the figure inside was clearer, although the hair was a little long, but it could be seen that there was a young child sitting in it, and its appearance was somewhat similar to the small stone.
Lu Yunfan's heart tightened, a bad idea arose, he is an atheist, naturally does not believe in ghosts and gods, but the appearance of small stones is a little strange, and he does not speak Chinese very well, maybe it is a Mongolian.
At this moment, the sarcophagus was still stuck in the hole, and several people tried to touch the sarcophagus again, as before, as it softened, several people easily put their hands in it, and before they could use much strength, the sarcophagus was dragged out by them and fell to the ground with a clang.
"It seems that these insects have eaten a lot, and it is estimated that there are only four molecules left in this coffin, if they gnaw it again, I think it won't be long before we can carry it out directly." Kuroko still seemed to be unwilling to lose the 100,000 yuan in vain, weighed the weight of the sarcophagus at this time, and grinned.
Lu Yunfan was really speechless to him, "Okay, if this thing doesn't weigh so much in the end, you can carry it back for me, what I said before is still valid!"
Kuroko clapped his hands and applauded, "Just wait for your words!"
Tie Han and Tang Yifei approached the square hole with a flashlight, and looked inside, and the inside was smooth into the mirror, there was no extra space at all, just enough to put a sarcophagus of the size just now, it seemed that it was just this stone cave built for this purpose.
Lu Yunfan pulled the sunspot and walked over, touched the rock wall inside, and became more sure of his previous guess.
"I'm sure this sarcophagus wasn't a coffin at all, it was poured into it to seal the person, and then the mouth was smoothed out so that it looked like it was one with the mountain. When building houses in our city, we often use cement to seal a hole, and this is a principle, but this material is rather peculiar, I don't know what it is. ”
"What kind of person could it be, to be so vicious, to seal people in here, it is simply a loss of conscience!" the iron man clenched his fists and was indignant.
"According to our guess, this was the place where the Mongols and the Witch Master had a war many years ago, and the Mongols should have been very afraid of these Witch Masters' Gu worms, so they found a way to separate from them and fought a war that did not have to be fought against each other, but they didn't expect that even if they didn't have to contact, they still lost to the Witch Master, but the details are worth scrutinizing, and we are not experts in this area, so if you want to know the details, you still need the knowledge support of archaeologists. ”
Tie Han said: "So, do you want to tell Professor Wang about the situation here?"
Lu Yunfan nodded, "That's right, Professor Wang's starting point is right, we don't have to deal with him, and we don't have to take out the treasures inside, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, although I, Lu Yunfan, am not a gentleman, but I haven't reached the point where greed is out of control." Okay, let's talk about these when we go out, there is no mechanism here, we have to continue to search, we have been here for more than an hour, we can't waste all our time here, and I also told Lao Sun to come to us, at the moment it is stormy outside, presumably Lao Sun is not comfortable, we have to get out of here quickly. ”
Tie Han and Tang Yifei nodded solemnly, life is the most important, there is no doubt about it.
Kuroko said: "These insects are still gnawing quite fast, why don't we wait a little longer......?"
Tang Yifei scolded sharply, "Heizi, when is it, you still think about the broken stone, no matter when, do you know that life is the most important?"
"Until now, we don't know who is banned in this stone, if the person inside is not dead, and it is a super perverted witch master, wouldn't we be even more dead?"
Lu Yunfan's intimidation had just stopped, and suddenly a loud bang came from behind them, and several people shone their flashlights in a panic, but they saw that the sarcophagus that had been eaten by Gu worms had been gnawed through, and the sarcophagus was broken into four or five sections, and it seemed that it was broken open by a very huge force, and the figure in the sarcophagus was missing.
The pupils of the four shrank sharply.
This time, I'm afraid my life is really in danger!
Lu Yunfan immediately raised the Soul Suppression Bead in his hand, and the beam of the flashlight was also shining in all directions.
What surprised them even more was that the jet-black liquid gathered by those Gu worms that had just filled almost the entire cave had all disappeared at this moment.
It's like it never happened.
The rocks on the ground reverted to a dark gray color again.
"Brother Fan......"
"Don't make a sound!" As soon as Heizi spoke, he was interrupted by Tang Yifei, and the four of them searched back to back, searching almost every inch of the stone cave, but they didn't find the disappeared figure.
The sweat of several people, who had not completely disappeared, filled their heads again, and they searched every inch in front of them very carefully and vigilantly.
The cave was silent, there was no rustle, they could only hear each other's breathing, and even the sound of their hearts beating.
Will it be on top of your head again?
Lu Yunfan didn't dare to wipe the sweat on his face, and suddenly shot the light of the flashlight above his head, looking over with vigilance.
There was nothing special above him, except for a dark gray rock, and he instantly turned his gaze and flashlight to his front again.
Everything was still as quiet as before, and there was nothing ahead.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, a small stick gently slammed into his ass, causing his heart to shrink again.
