Chapter 10 Colorful Stones
Zhang Shengling looked at the few zombies around and asked, "Where is this construction site, and how far is it from the East Gate?"
"This is the northwest corner of the second floor of the mall, the east gate should be over there, but the escalator has not been installed yet, we should go down the stairs from the left, there seems to be a hanging basket over there, I don't know if it can be used" Niu Shan looked around and pointed in one direction
Zhang Shengling looked at him and pointed left and right, he looked at him and said with a look of confusion, "What is this side and that, Song Ling, you draw what he said"
Song Ling picked up a broken brick, and she was a little unaware of what Niu Shan said, and drew a plan on the ground vaguely
"That's right," Niu Shan said as he looked at the floor plan and scratched his head
Zhang Shengling looked at the floor plan and understood a lot, looked around and said, "Is the armored zombie lost, why haven't you come yet, no matter what, first explore the other three parties."
He said to the rat, "Daxian Pathfinder"
The rat was still fiddling with the gold chain, as if he liked it very much, and squeaked at them a few times as if to show off, and waved at Niu Shan
Niu Shan looked at this strange mouse, barely squeezed out an ugly smile on his face, and learned from Zhang Shengling to say, "Daxian, if you like it, it's good"
...........
As he withdrew his left hand, the rat crawled onto his head and squeaked
"What are you talking about?" He wondered how there could be a stalactite cave in this place
The mouse said, "See for yourself," and continued fiddling with the gold chain
Zhang Shengling poked out his head and looked at the place outside the cube opposite, it was indeed a stalactite cave, the stone cave was very deep and zigzag and did not know where it extended, the diameter was almost ten meters, and the cube was stuck on the edge of the stone cave in a half-inlaid way, and the cave wall was full of stones that emitted a faint light, not a little strange for this stone
He looked at this colorful space, and simply walked directly into this strange stalactite cave
Song Ling and Niu Shan watched him slowly walk towards the opposite side, and hurriedly pulled his arm and the corner of his clothes to follow, for fear of being left here
They looked at the stalactite cave curiously, and the shiny stones around it dotted this dim space like a dream scene in a fairy tale world
"Brother Niu, didn't the developer discover the stalactite cave underground?" Zhang Shengling asked, looking at this fantasy space
Niu Shan shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be, but I heard that the hotel next to it broke a lot of drill bits when it first started piling, and all the high-rise buildings around it were more or less broken when piling, and then the piling team seemed unwilling to do it.
The developer seems to know about the existence of this stalactite cave and deliberately concealed it, but why should they hide it, or is there something strange in this cave?
He pondered and asked the mouse, "Daxian, what do you think of this stalactite cave?"
The mouse's eyes shone with colorful light and said, "What do you think, take pictures!"
γγγγγ He asked curiously, "Daxian, do you have a circle of friends?"
The rat doesn't seem too lazy to answer the question "what the rambling, take out the phone"
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone, looked at Song Ling next to him, remembered his previous experience, and asked embarrassedly, "Do you want to take a photo?"
Song Ling seemed to be fascinated by the dreamy space in front of her, took out her mobile phone and took photos everywhere, looking back to listen to Zhang Shengling's words, as if she was a little hesitant
Niu Shan didn't seem interested in this messy place, and kicked a glowing stone in boredom. Turning his head to look at the situation in front of him, he immediately understood, and hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "I'll help you shoot"
γγγγγ
Come closer, yes, laugh and think about the good things you've been throughγγγγγ Good!
Niu Shan quickly pressed a few times to take pictures
Zhang Shengling put away his phone and said, "Okay, let's go there just now"
The rat squeaked on its stomach and scratched a glowing stone with its paws, as if trying to dig one
Zhang Shengling looked at the rat and felt that it seemed good to collect some glowing stones at home, and then squatted on the ground and dug up
Song Ling looked at the pink stones and seemed to be a little interested, squatting down to dig the stones
They didn't notice that a wisp of black smoke was slowly drifting down the ground not far away, avoiding the glowing stones
He dug out a stone and looked at it carefully, and always felt that there was something wrong with the stone
After he dug out a few pieces one after another, he looked at the stones in front of him, and found that none of the stones were glowing as a whole, and the more the glowing parts of the stones looked more and more like vague words, he wiped them with his hands and found that there was a hard cocoon shell on the surface of the stones, and then picked up the two stones and collided with each other to try to remove the shell
When most of the shell was removed, he looked at the stone engraved with unknown characters in front of him in astonishment, and asked the mouse, "What is this word?"
The rat was digging the stones like an old dog digging the ground, and the pile of stones in front of it was almost as tall as its head, and it looked back and said, "Hey, this is a bit like the ancient runes that the old madman studied"
"What are the ancient runes used for? The same as the Dao runes?" he remembered the ghost talisman in the movie, and looked at it carefully, and the talisman in front of him felt that it was not the same thing as the Dao talisman at all
The mouse said, "I don't know, the old madman hasn't studied it, and I haven't seen the Dao Talisman"
Zhang Shengling said to himself: "If this talisman is used to drive away evil spirits and suppress ghosts like the Dao talisman on TV, then... There won't be anything in this place!"
Niu Shan put the dug stone on Zhang Shengling's side, and when he heard this, he stopped his movements and wanted to say something, and then saw that the person and the mouse were communicating strangely, staying in place
Song Ling had long been accustomed to this, and still digging the pink stone
The mouse listened to Zhang Shengling's words and replied, "You mean there are zombies here?"
This stone is very old, but the zombie has just appeared, and this stone should be used to calm other things" He looked at the stone in his hand and analyzed.
The rat scratched a stone with its paws, and after watching the cocoon shell on the outside being scratched off, it was also an unknown text and said, "Could it be the source of suppression of the black smoke?"
Zhang Shengling didn't dare to guarantee that he would encounter one kind of monster and whether he would encounter other monsters next, so he reasoned and said, "Could it be that there is something else in this underground?"
The mouse then said, "Then we dig out this stone, it will affect the original power of this stone cave, and the suppressed unknown thing will be freed from the trap."
Zhang Shengling looked around and didn't find any abnormalities, then looked at the half-mounted cube stuck in the hole and said, "It's okay for the time being, maybe this cube is too fast, or this cube also has the ability to suppress that thing, but no matter what, this cube can't stay for a long time."
"Wait... If this stone can suppress the unknown, then it should be able to deal with those things as well."
"Makes sense, dig a few more stones," he asked, looking at the stones piled up next to the mouse, "but where are you going to put them when you dig so many stones?"
He had always wondered what exactly the rat's abilities were
The mouse picked up a stone and stuffed it into its mouth like eating a bun, and in the surprised eyes of several people, it ate all the stones piled up next to it, but the belly was still so big, and then the mouse wiped its mouth and said: Additional ability
Zhang Shengling looked at the eating appearance of the mouse, his stomach couldn't help but scream, and he turned his head and asked, "Brother Niu, what time is your mobile phone time?"
Niu Shan dug a stone and took out his mobile phone and looked at "half past ten"
Ten and a half o'clock is so much different, he looked at the phone that showed that it was one o'clock in the afternoon, and after the crack appeared in the cube just now, the mobile phone time has been synchronized with the outside world, and his time is basically the same as the outside world at present
Several people continued to dig up stones
The wisp of black smoke outside the cube, as if it had found something, drilled into a tiny crack in the ground
"Mom, what is that" Niu Shan saw not far away, a thing like a human arm stretched out from the ground, and shouted in a cold sweat on his forehead
Zhang Shengling was digging stones, he looked in horror at the ground not far away, and at some point a three-meter-sized dirt bag protruded, several pitch-black arms that were more than five times longer than a normal person's arms stretched out from the dirt bag one after another, those arms seemed to touch the glowing stone and emitted black smoke like sulfuric acid, and then the six arms struggled violently, as if something was about to come out
"Daisen, what's that?"
"I've never seen something that should be suppressed by this stone, take a look at the situation first, and leave as soon as there is a situation near the wall" The mouse swallowed a few stones next to him into his stomach, climbed on his head and said, "Take out your phone, the information of this unknown event is very valuable, and it can be sold for a very high price"
"Brother Niu put that stone in place, hurry up" Zhang Shengling helped Song Ling to the wall and stared at those arms, took out his mobile phone and took a video of the strange object in front of him
A few strange arms struggled for a moment, and slowly emerged from the dirt bag with a faint red glow, wrapped in several pitch-black palms
As the thing continued to drill out, a strange creature resembling a humanoid more than three meters tall appeared in the stalactite cave, the red light wrapped in the palm of the hand was like a head, it had six long arms, more than a dozen rows of palms on the chest from top to bottom, palms facing inward, but the lower body only had one leg like a stake, strangely suspended in mid-air
It spread out its six arms like a human, and a burst of intense red light emanated from its head, and it roared as if it had been sealed for a long time and finally escaped. Then the red light in the head flickered, like the concentrated light of human eyes, the red halo swept around, focusing on the cube where Zhang Shengling was located, a beam of red light slowly stayed on Zhang Shengling's left hand, and then the monster flew towards them strangely, stretched out six arms in the frightened eyes of several people, pinched the cube everywhere with cracks
"Let's go!"
Zhang Shengling saw the cracks on the cube, put away the mobile phone and didn't look back to the direction he came from
Several people sat on the ground in fright, panting for breath
"No, we have to get out quickly, that thing was slow to move with stones just now, and now after getting out of trouble, it is running around in the ground without stones, and it is estimated that it will come up soon," he said, grabbing the mouse on his head and poking into the wall in front of him
As soon as he stretched out his hand, the mouse bit him on the hand, he retracted his hand and asked, "What's in front of you, what are you biting me for?"
"Monster!, but it's a little different from the one it looked like just now," the mouse was scared for a moment
"What, there's that stuff, we have to hurry," he said, and walked towards the last wall
