025 This road is not working
The biggest advantage of having a map is that you don't have to take detours, even if you encounter a walking corpse on the road, you won't back down, but just kill it heroically.
Kou Xuebing and Yi Xiangxi partnered to take the lead, charging all the way, invincible, and there were corpses and bones everywhere they passed. Ah Zhen gradually learned to use the crossbow, becoming more and more proficient, shooting many walking corpses along the way, and even Kou Xuebing praised her for her rapid progress, like a divine help. Shen Yan'er and Xiao Hei, who were left behind, had no chance to play at all.
A group of people followed the direction marked on the map, invincible in the tunnel, like a bamboo, fighting a bloody way to forge ahead. As long as this morale is maintained, it will not be long before you can rush into the carousel and enter a safe zone that has not yet been overrun by the walking corpses.
Shen Yan'er tried her best to do good things, but her good wishes were shattered in the evening. Looking at the thick stone wall in front of them, everyone who was in high morale became discouraged and overwhelmed.
According to the map, it was supposed to be an unobstructed passage. However, in fact, what appeared before their eyes was a dead end.
"Is there something wrong with the map?" Shen Yan'er was a little blindsided.
The map was carried by Wei Shixuan, and it was related to the safety of her life in the mass grave, so it was impossible to be wrong. Could it be that Shen Yan'er's group of people were dazzled and misunderstood? After repeated confirmation by Kou Xuebing and Yi Xiangxi, this possibility was finally ruled out.
"If the map says that there is a road, there must be a road, probably because someone triggered the mechanism, and the road was blocked. Let's look around and see if there's a mechanism that can make this wall disappear. The experienced Yi Xiangxi immediately made a reliable judgment.
After listening to her words, Shen Yan'er also calmed down. Indeed, there are many mechanisms in mass graves, and since there are mechanisms that can cause the ground to suddenly sink into a huge crater, it is not surprising that there is a mechanism that can suddenly erect a wall in a tunnel.
Everyone began to split up to find the mechanism. Shen Yan'er rotated the candlesticks on the wall one by one, Ah Zhen tried to move every brick on the wall, Yi Xiangxi walked around on the ground and stepped lightly with her feet, and Kou Xuebing held up the "bend" to poke the stone above her head.
Up and down, left and right started at the same time, and no one needed to give orders, and the killing of the enemy in the bloody wind for most of the day had sharpened the tacit understanding between them. Those who don't know think they're old friends for many years.
Only Xiao Hei put his ear to the stone wall blocking the road, listening carefully to something. After a while, he reminded the crowd in a voice as still as water: "There is a voice in the back. ”
He doesn't speak very often, and when he speaks, it's about weight. Everyone stopped searching for a moment and turned their heads to look at him. As a result, he also stood and looked at everyone, and it seemed that there was no follow-up information to be published. However, even if he didn't say it, everyone could guess what was behind the wall.
Yi Xiangxi walked over, and also put her ear on the wall to listen, revealing an expression of "sure enough". "There's a walking corpse behind this." Yi Xiangxi unhurriedly announced the enemy situation for Xiao Hei, "But there are walking corpses we have to go over, because this is the nearest road, and if you change to another road, you may encounter more walking corpses." ”
As she spoke, Yi Xiangxi clenched the weapon in her hand, revealing an awe-inspiring expression that she was going to fight to the death with the enemy. Anyway, this is how they killed along the way, they didn't cut down the walking corpses, and they didn't encounter a few dangerous situations, so they weren't afraid to charge into battle one more time.
Shen Yan'er, Ah Zhen and Kou Xuebing all nodded silently in support of Yi Xiangxi. The group of people who have won a hundred battles along the way are full of confidence in their own combat effectiveness, and they are no longer afraid of the walking corpses who are empty and vulnerable.
Only Xiao Hei was worried, and said weakly: "There are a lot of them. ”
This is indeed a worrying place. Shen Yan'er turned her brain, and immediately thought of a way, saying, "For the sake of insurance, let's use that." As she spoke, she pointed to the place where Yi Xiangxi put the incense burner, reminding her not to forget the storage of this secret weapon.
Everyone has seen the power of the incense burner, as long as the incense burner is lit, the walking corpses within 100 meters will automatically disperse. There's nothing like this.
Yi Xiangxi nodded, put the incense burner on the ground, threw a small piece of wood into it, and then took out the flint. She had also heard the movement behind the wall with her own ears just now, and had a rough judgment of the number of walking corpses. Since she took out the incense burner without thinking about it, it was enough to prove that the number of walking corpses behind the wall would never waste this precious exorcism tablet.
Thinking of this, Shen Yan'er couldn't help but swallow nervously.
Yi Xiangxi squatted on the ground, while lighting the fire, while muttering to herself: "I just don't know if the fragrance can float through the wall......
If the fragrance can't waft away, and the walking corpse can't smell it, it will naturally not leave, then the few exorcism tablets will be wasted.
But coincidentally, as soon as Yi Xiangxi lit the wood chips, she heard Kou Xuebing's excited shout behind her: "I found the mechanism!" ”
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at Kou Xuebing in unison. I saw her holding one end of the bow and arrow in both hands, and the other end of the bow and arrow was pressed straight against the top wall. The stone that was held up was movable, slightly recessed into the depths by a little distance.
Kou Xuebing didn't dare to move against the stone, for fear that his hand would shake and his efforts would be lost. Everyone also held their breath nervously and stared at Kou Xuebing's movements.
At this moment, there was a sudden mechanical sound of gears turning overhead. Then there was a "boom", and the top of the barricade wall cracked violently, and then fell rapidly.
Before everyone could react, the wall had already fallen halfway, revealing the walking corpses behind them.
When the walking corpses heard the sound, they turned their heads to look at them in unison, their eerie and terrifying eyes as sharp as swords, and they had already preempted the attack before their bodies moved their eyes. The movement of turning their heads was so fast that Shen Yan'er couldn't help but worry about whether their necks would be broken.
Everyone was forced back by the gaze of the walking corpse, and subconsciously took a few steps back, huddled together side by side. Everyone held their weapons firmly in their hands, and a big war was imminent. Shen Yan'er was so nervous that she didn't even dare to blink her eyes, for fear that she would die if she missed a moment.
As the barricade wall falls, the huge crowd of walking corpses behind the wall reveals its true face.
Xiao Hei was right, the number of walking corpses was so large that people broke out in a cold sweat. The dim darkness of the light could not count their exact number, except for a large black stretch stretching to the end of the tunnel. Countless pairs of gray-white eyes were glaring at them menacingly, and the terrifying roar of ghosts shook the entire tunnel.
Seeing that the barricade wall was about to fall near the knees of the walking corpses, and the walking corpses were about to rush over, Yi Xiangxi hurriedly opened his hands, blocked everyone behind him, and roared hard: "Everyone stay out of the way first!" ”
