Volume 1 The Beginning of the Tomb Search Chapter 085 The Leather Skeleton

The man was dressed in heavy armor, and the armor was rusty, obviously an antiquity from an unknown number of years ago.

Even on his head, he wore an ancient helmet, covering his forehead and cheeks.

His face was withered, his complexion was gray, and he felt like a newly dead man who had not been dead for a long time.

But not only did his eyes open, but his eyes also turned in their sockets, as if he glanced at Poplar and the other three one by one.

Then he raised his hands and held an equally rusty mace in his hand, and smashed it down on the poplar's head with a "whew".

Poplar was already taken aback when he saw this strange-looking person coming up.

Because this man was dressed in armor, just like the general's clothes on the stone tablet painting in the third room on the left that he had just seen, and even the mace he held in his hand was probably the weapon of the mighty general.

So the man smashed it down, and Poplar immediately dodged to avoid it.

Tie Niu had already shouted: "Lao Bai, this can't be the general in the painting just now, right?

As he spoke, the man in armor turned around and struck him again.

The mace was so heavy that the iron bull did not dare to use the camphor stick to block it, so he had to dodge like an aspen.

"This man looks like he's dead, but somehow not as dull as the living dead!" replied Poplar in a loud voice.

In fact, with Bai Yang's martial arts, he could take the opportunity to attack behind the back of this person when he attacked the iron bull.

But he had a question in his heart, and shouted, "I wonder if he will be Senior Brother Wang!"

He just reminded Tie Niu not to be ruthless first, but unexpectedly, a word came out, and Hong Xing immediately shouted: "He doesn't look like Senior Brother Wang, I have seen a photo of Senior Brother Wang, he is very burly!"

The person who didn't know whether he was dead or alive seemed to be very easily attracted by the sound, and when Hong Xing shouted out a word, he immediately swung a stick at Hong Xing again.

The red apricot body stepped back, but a flying knife came out of his right hand, and he saw a flash of light, and the flying knife shot into the man's throat.

But the man's throat was protected by armor, and the knife could not be shot, so he heard a "poof" sound, and the knife fell to the ground.

The man seemed to be a little angry, and simply stopped attacking one of the three, but took turns swinging his mace.

The room was spacious, but there was a lot of furniture in it, and Poplar thought that everything here was probably priceless, and if it was broken and broken, the damage would be great.

So he immediately made a great effort to get close to the man's feet, and before the man could swing his club, he had already slashed at each of the man's calves with the short sword in his hand.

The man was covered in armor, but his calves were unprotected.

Although it is impossible to cut off the man's calf with these two strokes, if he is a living person, he will inevitably fall to the ground without being able to support it.

But the man seemed to be unconscious, and he didn't see any blood coming out, but brandished his mace and rushed towards the poplar.

Poplar hit the blow and rolled out smoothly.

I only heard a loud sound of "poof", and the heavy mace head in the man's hand grazed the poplar's body and slammed it on the ground.

At the same time, the iron bull swung out the camphor stick from behind and hit the man's head with a "snap".

The man had a helmet on his head, and the blow of the Iron Bull did not do anything to the man, but the man immediately turned around and attacked the Iron Bull again.

Bai Yang took advantage of this opportunity to stand up and shouted at Hongxing: "This thing is definitely not a living person, Hongxing, you quickly get out, I and Lao Hei will go out immediately, go outside and fight him!"

Hongxing was already standing at the doorway outside, and as soon as she heard Baiyang say, she immediately dodged out of the doorway.

Seeing that the man was wielding a mace, Bai Yang had already driven the iron bull into the corner, and immediately approached him, and his right hand sword quickly turned around, pierced through the gap between the man's front and back armor, and stabbed the man in the back buttocks.

The man immediately turned and pursued Poplar, but instead of dwelling with him, Poplar quickly retreated to the doorway outward, and flashed out sideways through the doorway.

The man chased after him with a mace, only to hear a "bang" and slam his stick on the back of the white marble statue of the goddess next to the doorway.

Only the rubble was scattered, and the white foam was scattered, but Poplar took the opportunity to turn around and slash his sword at one of the man's wrists.

The slash almost severed the man's wrist, but the man was still unconscious, and instead of screaming, he squeezed out of the door with all his might, and continued to pursue the poplar.

Poplar was trying to lure him after him, and immediately ran out of the open gate to the outside.

At this time, the sun had already sprinkled into the valley, but I don't know what kind of monster it was, but it chased it out without fear, and under the blue sky and white sun, it smashed a stick at the poplar again.

Iron Bull followed, and seeing Poplar dodge the man's smash, Iron Bull rushed up and slammed into the man's back.

The man was holding a heavy weapon in his hand, and he couldn't turn around and dodge flexibly, and he was hit by the iron bull, and couldn't help but stagger forward two steps.

Poplar quickly squatted down and swept his legs. The man was already unsteady on his feet, but he was swept away by the poplar and suddenly fell forward and fell to the ground.

Without waiting for the man to get up, Poplar rolled over and straddled the man's back, lifted the man's helmet with his left hand, and took out the lightning cone hidden in his bosom with his right hand, and plunged it into the back of the man's neck.

The lightning strike wood was indeed an evil nemesis, and the man was still struggling with his hands and feet, but he was inserted into the back of his neck by the lightning strike wood, and although the man did not make a miserable scream, he suddenly leaned back and lifted the poplar off his back.

By the time Poplar rolled on the spot and half-crouched up, the man had turned his face up motionless.

Poplar breathed a sigh of relief and looked closely at the man's face, only to see that his eyes were still open, but the pupils were dilated, and he was sure that he was dead.

Tie Niu and Hongxing walked up and took a closer look at the man's face.

Tie Niu said: "This is obviously a person who has just died, is it really that the ancient general has lived to the present and has just been killed by Lao Bai?"

"Impossible!" Poplar shook his head, "I slashed him a few times, but I didn't see a drop of blood from him, which means that he is definitely not a living person! But it is not a zombie or a living dead, a zombie will not be a new dead, and a living dead will not be so flexible and powerful!"

"Lift his helmet and take a look!" said Hongxing.

Just now, Poplar only lifted a large slit in the back of this person's helmet, and did not take it off the person's head.

Hearing Hongxing say this, Tie Niu immediately squatted down and took off the man's helmet.

"Ahh

I thought that inside the helmet would be an ancient man with a bun, but I didn't expect that when the helmet was taken off, the person actually shaved a small flat head, which would definitely not be an ancient hairstyle, but a very popular men's hairstyle.

But the three of them exclaimed not only because of this, but also because the man's helmet was taken off, and he looked even more shriveled and emaciated, almost like a dead gray human skin, wrapped in the shape of a skull.

So much so that his eye sockets appear particularly deep and large, his cheekbones are high, and his mouth is a little bulging.

"How could this man be so thin, how could he have so much strength?"

Poplar secretly said "Oops", and also squatted down on the other side of the man, reaching out to untie the man's armor.

Tie Niu stretched out his hand to help, and suddenly found that the man was dressed in modern clothes, with a white shirt on the upper body and blue polyester pants on the bottom.

"This, this, this...... Is it a modern man?" exclaimed Iron Bull.

Poplar frowned, fumbled in the pockets of the man's shirt and pants, and quickly pulled out a small red book from his trouser pocket.

Poplar opened the small book and suddenly found that it was a work card.

In fact, Bai Yang and Tie Niu Hongxing also have the same work permit, but the three of them have just joined the archaeological team, so the work card is still new, but this work card is relatively old.

"This is Senior Brother Wang!" said Bai Yang, his face gloomy.

"Impossible!" Hong Xing cried out, "I've seen the photos of Senior Brother Wang, white and fat, tall and strong, but this person is simply a leather skeleton."

The man was indeed a leather skeleton, a good shirt that wore loosely on him, and the fabric was not soft and fitting, but it reflected the ribs on his body.

"Brother Jin Han once said that he had seen the so-called goddess absorb the essence and blood of the cave girl, and this person was so thin that he was afraid that it was exactly what he looked like after being sucked out of the essence and blood!" Bai Yang said, almost gritting his teeth because of anger and worry.

Anger is due to the fact that a person who is fat and strong from white and strong is sucked into a skinned skeleton, which is evident in the evil cruelty of the so-called goddess, or simply the banshee.

is worried, but Ding Lingling has not been found yet, and I don't know if she will be sucked by the banshee now.

Poplar stood up gloomily, wanting to go back into the house, no matter how evil the banshee was, he always wanted to rescue Ding Lingling.

But I heard Hongxing exclaim: "Look at it!"

Poplar immediately turned around, and couldn't help but be surprised.

I saw that the mouth of the skin-wrapped skeleton on the ground was open, and one by one, black insects that I don't know what they were, were crawling out of the man's mouth and nostrils.

Bai Yang's mind was in a hurry, for fear that once these insects got into his body, he would also turn into this leather skeleton on the ground, and hurriedly shouted: "This is probably the Gu worm of the Miao tribe, you two quickly ran across the spring to get rid of the wooden bridge, there are ice light phosphate fish under the spring, and any strange insects can't get by!"

He shouted, but he hurried to the big house.

Iron Bull exclaimed, "Why don't you come with us?"

"I want to save Lingling, and I must not let her be sucked by the banshee!"

The two of them only exchanged two sentences, and the countless Gu worms that poured out of the nostrils of the skin-wrapped skeleton on the ground had already crawled to the feet of the three of them.

Tie Niu didn't think about rushing towards Bai Yang, and shouted: "Hongxing, you leave first, this insect is small, no one runs fast, I can't leave Lao Bai!"

Bai Yang knew his temperament, so he didn't say much, turned around and rushed straight into the big house, stretched out his hand to close the door, but saw Hongxing gritting his teeth and chasing after Tie Niu.

Poplar could only wait for Hongxing to enter the door before closing the door.

"Where's the torch, light the torch and burn these bugs along the crack in the door!" shouted Hongxing.
