Chapter 347: Guarding the Sea Spirit
Lin Tian's intuition told him that there must be something terrifying in the waterhole. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
His eyes were fixed on the ripples in the pool, trying to see through them and see what was in the water.
But after a while, the layers of ripples dissipated, and the waterhole returned to calm.
Long Jiu ordered several elites around him to start building an improvised pontoon bridge.
Long before setting off, the elites of the Heavenly King Society had prepared a lot of supplies and tools that might be used.
The six young elites hurriedly took out the folded inflatable cushion from their backpacks, filled the air and spread it on the water.
Each inflatable cushion is the size of a single bed and has latches at both ends that can be locked together with other inflatable mattresses to form a simple pontoon.
In a short time, a simple pontoon bridge consisting of eighteen inflatable cushions was completed.
Long Jiu ordered everyone to move on, with a few elites crossing the pontoon bridge first, followed by Buddha Ye, Yi Hongtu, Lin Tian and the others.
Although it is inevitable that there will be some shaking when people cross the pontoon bridge, it is much better than swimming across the waterhole and making everyone feel safer.
Ten minutes later, the group of thirty-nine people crossed the pontoon bridge and came to the flat ground between the waterhole and the black boulder.
The clearing, which covers an area of thousands of square meters, is covered with pits, leaving many algae and coral reefs, as well as some shells and fish and shrimp carcasses.
It was getting late, and the light was a little dim and blurry.
Buddha and Yi Hongtu stared at the black boulder, with some doubts in their eyes.
They both knew that the black boulder was the entrance to the treasury.
However, the eyes of the two searched the black boulder several times, but they could not find the entrance.
The surface of the boulder is black and uneven, but there are no carvings or patterns, let alone gates or openings.
Yi Hongtu felt a little strange, frowned and muttered, "Strange, how did the treasure house become like this?" ”
"I remember that there was a large stone sculpture in that place, and there were some mechanisms on it that could open the entrance to the treasure house?"
Lin Tian heard his muttering, and also stared at the black boulder with some confusion.
He looked at it for a while, and suddenly had the illusion that he saw a black stone squirming in a certain area.
The Buddha also seemed to see the clues, his cloudy eyes revealed a gloomy aura, and he secretly wondered in his heart: "On the rock wall of the treasure house, how did it become like this?" Where did the relief and the trap go? ”
"We've come here, but it's still so calm, and the sea spirit guarding the treasure house hasn't even appeared? Don't...... What's wrong with the treasury? ”
Thinking of this, the Buddha glanced at Long Jiu.
Long Jiu immediately ordered the four young elites, "You four, go and see what's going on on the rock wall?" ”
The four young elites nodded, all wearing leather gloves, holding tools and equipment such as pickaxes and sabers, and approached the black rock wall with cautious expressions.
One of them walked under the rock wall and knocked on the rock wall with his hand, and found that the texture and sound of the knocking were a little abnormal, not like a stone.
"Is it a layer of mud on the rock wall?"
Confused, he scraped the rock wall a few times with his saber, trying to scrape off the black mud on the surface and see the rock wall inside.
He scraped twice with his saber, and sure enough, he scraped off a large black 'mud', revealing the gray-brown rock wall inside.
The black 'mud' was the size of a basin, and it didn't shatter when it fell to the ground, but it suddenly writhed.
After a few soft clicks, the black 'mud' actually stretched out a dozen black tentacles the thickness of a thumb, supporting its body and crawling on the ground.
Four young elites are scraping the rock wall with sabers and pickaxes, and more than a dozen pieces of black 'mud' have already been scraped off.
They only looked at the gray-brown rock wall, and when they saw that there were indeed some lines and patterns on the rock wall, they were all in high spirits and moved more quickly.
However, they didn't notice that the dozen or so pieces of black 'mud' that had fallen on the ground stretched out their arthropods and tentacles and crept under their feet.
Night fell, the valley was dimly lit, and no one noticed anything unusual.
Only Lin Tian, Long Jiu, Long Fei and others, who had kung fu in their bodies, had strong eyesight, and finally sensed that something was wrong.
"Get out of the way, it's dangerous!"
"Look at what is crawling under your feet!"
Lin Tian and Long Jiu both spoke to remind the four elites almost at the same time, and their tones were a little anxious.
The four elites suddenly woke up, and hurriedly retreated a few steps away from the rock wall, and looked down at their feet.
It's okay not to look at it, but when they saw more than a dozen black beetles crawling rapidly under their feet, they immediately turned pale with fright and let out a burst of exclamations.
In particular, three of the elites had a black beetle lying on their ankles and calves.
The beetle's body was covered with a black crust, and under the crust stretched out dense arthrops and tentacles, firmly binding the ankles and calves of the three elites.
The three of them hurriedly kicked their feet in fright, trying to shake off the black beetle.
But the black beetles had rows of barbs on their arthropods, which had pierced their shoes and trouser legs, and pierced into their flesh.
Black beetles also have suckers on their tentacles, like octopuses, that can firmly suck their flesh and skin.
The ankles and trouser legs of the three of them became bloody, and they screamed in pain, but they couldn't shake off the black beetle.
They tried to break it with their hands, but they still couldn't get rid of the black beetle.
The four elites were all pale with fright, sweating profusely, and ran towards Long Jiu and the others with their limps, calling for help as they ran.
"Brother Jiu, help!"
"What the hell is this? I can't get rid of it! ”
"Brother Jiu, brothers, save me!"
The screams and exclamations of the four echoed in the valley, and the hearts of more than thirty people were hanging.
Everyone looked ahead with panic and worry on their faces, trying to widen their eyes to see what the black beetle was crawling quickly on the ground.
At this critical moment, Long Jiu narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed under his eyes.
He was carrying a saber in his hand, and his figure flashed and rushed out, rushing out ten meters away in a few steps, and came to the four elites.
"Huh!"
Long Jiu swung his saber abruptly and slashed at the calf of one of the elites.
With a flash of the sword, everyone heard a crisp "ding", and the saber pressed against the elite's calf, cutting off the black beetle's arthropods and tentacles.
The black beetle with the size of the basin fell to the ground with a "snap", still screaming in pain, desperately fluttering and struggling.
Long Jiu once again rushed towards the other three elites, swinging his saber in succession and slashing out several lashes, slashing off the black beetles on their ankles and calves.
The four elites ran back into the crowd in shock, panting to check their injuries.
As soon as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Long Jiu suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, shrink the formation, protect the Buddha, and prepare to fight!" ”
Hearing his cold shout, many people looked up at the black boulder in confusion.
I saw that the three-story black boulder suddenly moved.
Piles of black beetles fell off the rock wall, falling to the ground with a "swish", stretching out their arthropods and tentacles, and surging towards everyone like a tide.
No one could count the number of those black beetles, and everyone only saw that the ground was covered with black beetles, which were dense and made people's scalps tingle. (To be continued.) )
