Early the next morning, more than 30 people gathered at the entrance of the village, and the old village chief took a few elderly villagers to put up an altar and put liquor for everyone to practice. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I don't want there to be so many righteous people in my deserted village, please listen to the arrangement of Zhou Dongjia, fully cooperate, the old man and the rest of the women and children are waiting here for the triumph of the strong men, come, drink this cup!"

"Don't worry, we will obey the dispatch of Dong Zhou's family, go all out, and keep our side safe, don't do it here!"

At the sound of an order, everyone carried tools, carried rat boxes, carried ropes, and torches and followed the old man towards the stele cave.

After entering the cave and moving forward the same way, the villagers, who were still indignant at first, became more and more uncomfortable, especially when they reached the cliff full of sharp stones, and the really timid fled back at that time.

The old man was not reluctant, and he led everyone to move forward, and in the end, there were a total of twenty-seven people left.

After passing through the last totemic road, we finally reached the cliff on the big pit.

Everyone went to check on the villagers who died here yesterday, they didn't want to look at the hair all over their bodies, the venom spit out by the tick was really powerful, and after a night, there was almost only a white bone left, the old man was afraid to think about it, if he let people carry the corpse back, he would definitely have to take another person.

"The owner, this is my brother, last night the old father told me, I must destroy this place to avenge my brother, I am not afraid of these strange insects, please give the owner an order!"

The old man looked at this person, with a sparse beard on his green face, and tears shining in his eyes.

"Ladies and gentlemen, look up and see that there are ticks as big as a human head crawling around the blue star-like points of light overhead, and they will not fall and hurt people unless we provoke them. But the cockroaches in the pit are our first problem, and the creatures are mutually reinforcing, so let's put the mice in the pit first, then lure the ticks down to eat the mice, and finally burn the torches to disperse the ticks and let them slowly climb back to the top of the cave. Everyone is doing what they are told, and now the danger is only overhead, so in a team of two, one person works and the other looks up at the roof of the cave, and if something falls, evacuate quickly, you know? Eighth, let's get started! ”

The eighth received the order, so he concentrated the rat box on the cliff, and according to his idea, the rat was lowered from the half of the cliff facing the cave at the bottom, so that a burst of momentum was formed, and the cockroaches would disperse in one direction.

Sure enough, these nearly 100 rats have been hungry for a few days and nights, and their eyes are glowing green, and as soon as they open the cage door, they really rush down the cliff like a sea of mountains and seas, and bite at the cockroaches everywhere.

Those cockroaches' eyesight has long since deteriorated, and there are almost no natural predators here, where after this formation, they are frightened and flee in all directions, while the rats have opened the meat, scratching and biting one by one, and the crunching gnawing sound makes people have goosebumps.

Li Lao carefully observed the activities of the rats going down to the bottom of the pit, and found that the cockroaches easily burrowed into the feces to seek avoidance, but the rats also used their front paws to dig through the feces to find them, and this time and again, the holes of the rats were dug deep and large, but when they dug to a depth of about the length of their bodies, they obviously couldn't dig down, probably the bottom was very hard, and the front paws couldn't bring anything out no matter how they planed.

"Owner, it seems that the excrement of this tick has become a hard shell after it dries, you see that the rat only dug to the depth of its body length and can't dig anything at all, our batch of rats is huge, but it is only half the height of the calf, it seems that it will not fall into it after a while."

"Well, it's the best, but luckily it's not bats, I've heard before that their droppings can be several meters deep, and you can't even exert force if you step on them. Man-bear, how many rats were left behind? If it's just a hind leg, will it break off? ”

"The owner, there are five more, these guys look at the same kind of food is refreshing, and their tempers are short-tempered! You can rest assured, the old village chief specially gave these few rice dumplings to bundle, and they will only be dizzy and will not break! ”

"Good! Look at the situation below, the cockroaches are fleeing towards the hole, and the remaining rats are still eating, it's time! Man-bears, tick-luring ticks, everyone retreated, and fought in a circle with torches. ”

Then the man-bear and the short-legged man each picked up a rope, and the mouse hung upside down at the end of the rope, squeaking and struggling, and they rounded the rope and threw it up, and then raised it above their heads to exert force, and the swishing sound became more and more brittle, and finally with a sharp flick, I saw the mouse carrying the rope straight to the blue light point on the top, and a swing was glued to those silk curtains.

Suddenly, the blue light point fluctuated violently, and it seemed that the big ticks around it began to crawl towards the two rats quickly, and then they threw the remaining three rats to the top, and Lai Yu, the one-eyed dragon, and the leper head stood in three directions of the cliff on an average basis, holding the fire dragon in their hands.

"Man bear, quick, throw the rope, lure those ticks into the middle as much as possible, and a few of us are going to bang at the periphery!"

I don't want to throw the rope, there are two rats that were pulled down, followed by more than a dozen big ticks also fell, Lao Ba saw that the big ticks had begun to chase these prey, and now as long as you add another fire and force them all to the center, one by one will definitely fall down.

With a bang, the three fire dragons rushed towards the periphery of the big tick at the same time, and the people below looked disgusted, and the top was simply a ball the size of a person's head squeezed together, like a lot of dense tumors suddenly growing on the stone wall.

After the explosion, the large ticks that had been driven to the center fell like crazy, put a cushion on their droppings, and rushed towards the rats.

Don't look at these guys are huge and have short limbs, but they are definitely not inferior to rats, and the thick hairs that cover their whole bodies are now all erect, like the hair standing up on a human head, if you didn't know the structure of this strange insect before, now looking down from the cliff, it looks like a human head running around at the bottom of a pit.

Those mice just had time to rest before they were full, they felt a huge danger, this strange insect in front of them had never been in contact, at first they were stupidly standing there ready to try, but the big tick had no scruples, crawled all the way over and suddenly turned over collectively and did not move, the mice were still stupid to sniff in the past, this is fooled.

As soon as the thick hair opened, the insect head inside suddenly poked out, and the mouse was frightened and immediately used all his strength to escape, so that the big tick turned over with its strength, but the insect head and those limbs had already been locked by the mouse, and now they were all dragged into the dense hair recess at the bottom.

The actions of these big ticks are orderly, as if they have received instructions, they are uniform, some mice have not passed, but they still can't escape the claws, and the big ticks that have no prey next to them will open the thick hairs in the recess, and the insect head inside will shake from side to side, the old man can see clearly now, the head of the worm is round and eyeless, and the back is connected with a long neck, just like bean sprouts, once the mouth is opened, it is full of dense small sawtooth.

Some rats thought it was an edible insect, so they ran cautiously over it, but as soon as they approached, the head of the insect suddenly stretched out, biting directly into the fur of the mouse, and finally the venom secreted by the mouthparts slowly melted, and only a moment later, only a white skeleton remained.

"It's terrible, regardless of whether the corpses are still here or not, these giant tick-like monsters are time bombs, how can you get out of the cave from here, I think, douse them with fire oil and throw torches to burn them now."

"Brother is merciful, but I can't take care of them yet, first, we can't splash a large area in our position, and besides, I just want to dig out the following first to see what kind of existence it is, especially those flowers, it's simple to burn it, but if you don't figure out the reason, it's really a trouble." As for these ticks, they don't have eyes and like the dark, so it is estimated that it is impossible to get out of the cave, and they will definitely scatter and flee for a while to climb back to the top of the cave. ”

"Okay, let's disperse the ticks now."

"Are the torches ready? Throw them all down from the man-bears, remember, don't throw the area full of flowers, don't throw the place towards the entrance of the cave, and then line up from both sides to form a torch fence, the former is to force the monster insects to rush up the cliff from the opposite side of us to escape, not let them get into the cave and run outside, and at the same time protect those flowers, the latter is to prevent them from coming up and counterattacking! ”

"Brothers, if we succeed this time, the pit will be safe, if these ticks go crazy and pounce on us, then fight hard, they will not turn over on their own, they must rely on side force, so, just kick them over, and then stab the tip of the knife into the recess, don't be afraid!"

Brush, brush, everyone threw the torches into the pit, those big ticks had never seen torches in their lives, and they wanted to rush up and bite one by one, but where could they stand this thing mixed with fire oil, after a charge, a smell of burnt insect shells rose, and the old eight roughly counted above, and there were nearly a hundred big ticks below, and they finally felt scared.

One of the obviously largest ticks turned around and rushed towards the place where there were no torches, hissing in their mouthparts, and the rest of the ticks followed, and they hissed all the way to the cliff, and when they came up, they didn't care about the old man on the other side, and they ran away in the distance.

After a moment of tension, the pit was now dead silent, except for the bones of some rats and ticks, all that remained was feces and flowers.

Because the torches are at the bottom of the pit, those flowers look even more weird, and they are really colorful and beautiful. Li Lao looked at the flowers, and remembered the size of the ticks on the side, in comparison, those flowers were taller than the big ticks, but he clearly saw that the flowers were overwhelmed in the chaos, but now they are still standing, is it all an illusion?

"Old eight, are our digging tools ready?"

"It's all ready, please order it."

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the living creatures in the pit have been cleared, as I said, the rest is the flowers depicted on the totem, I am most worried about this, so, Zhou took the lead to go down, you can do your own thing, if you don't want to go down the pit, give me a hand, pull these baskets full of feces up and down, if you are willing to go down, you must be cautious, do not dig up the area of flowers without authorization."

After that, the old man pulled the rope and went down to the pit first, and where the people and bears were willing to show weakness, they took a few brave townsmen and went down.

According to the old man's arrangement, Li Lao stayed on it and was responsible for arranging the rest of the people to dispose of the feces, which were soaked in the pit all the year round, and I don't know what was hidden inside, at least cockroach eggs were indispensable, so they had to be piled up and burned all, which was not a small amount of work.

Down to the pit, the old man collapsed hard, it was really as Li Lao guessed, the soft manure on it was slippery and sticky, dark black in color, full of a palm thick, all the bottom was as hard as a stone, a shovel went down, there was no spark like a stone, it was like a crunchy rock cracked into pieces.

"Brothers, two of you have a basket, don't care about the area of flowers, and clean up the surroundings first."

So according to the old man's division of labor, everyone is free to group, the eighth accompanies his own owner, from the periphery to the flower area to start cleaning, although the soft manure on it is sticky and disgusting, but the farmer man likes it the most, one by one wants to pick them up at home to raise the land, but Lai Yu simply picked out, is it that the cockroach eggs in it also have to be brought back to the village?

In this way, about seven or eight times back and forth, the surface of the dung was cleaned up, revealing the hard dung husk underground, but this was much easier than cleaning the soft dung, like moving stones, shoveling into a basket piece by piece and transporting it.

Li Lao was busy on it, he arranged for Xiang Yong to pick up the dung far away to the sharp stone area, a basket into a cone, and then poured some fire oil, a fire burned, and suddenly, the whole cliff was like day.

However, just when everyone chiseled the dung shell into pieces, a lot of bones appeared inside, and a few villagers screamed at that time.

Everyone hurriedly ran over, indeed, those human bones were obviously left as a whole, and there were a lot of pieces in each part, the old man himself ate the bowl of rice of tomb robbery and treasure exploration, even if it was a few people and bears who ran the boat, they had killed people, so naturally they didn't care about these, and these bones were obviously lying flat, and there was nothing weird.

"Fellow villagers, don't be afraid, when we came in, we guessed that this might be a tomb, and it's normal to have dead people."

"Don't worry, these bones are nothing compared to the insects just now, but if they are in a tomb, it will be reassuring."

"Okay, everyone digs down the area they are responsible for to see if there are still human bones! And then all shipped to it, old brother! Trouble separating human bones from fecal shells, don't burn them all! ”

Under the order, everyone dug again, indeed, there are human bones under the layers of this dung shell, although they are all lying in a flat position, but the direction of each layer is different, and the same layer is almost parallel to one next to the other.

"It's strange, could it be that the ancients here lacked soil, so they buried people with dung? And after burying a layer, you forget the direction and choose again? This is too disgusting, who wants to let themselves be covered in? ”

"Old eight, how many have we dug up here?"

"There are already more than a dozen, and they have all been transported, and Li Ye is placing them according to different levels, and he said to see if he can tell the time."

After that, the two of them continued to work hard to clean up their area, this dry manure is really thick, there have been more than a dozen back and forth, a lot of human bones have been dug up, and there is still one underneath, the old man wiped his sweat and persuaded him to rest.

"Boss, come and see, the last few bones of my here have all been dug up, and there is a stone slab underneath, and there are still patterns carved on it!"
