Chapter 70: The Terrifying Mummy Passage
"What's that sound?" Lily leaned towards Zhao Qi and asked a little scared.
"You stay here and don't move." Zhao Qi looked around, and finally picked up a torch from the lampstand next to him.
This torch should be made of gold, and it was heavy in his hand, and Zhao Qi took the tail of the torch and waved it a few times before walking forward.
In front of the hall was a straight passage, and there was no other passage than this one, and it was from this passage that the sound came.
"Rustle~" The sound of objects rubbing against the fool on the ground came from far and near, but no objects appeared in front of Zhao Qi.
Finally, a strange-looking thing crossed the corner of the passage in front of him, due to the distance, Zhao Qi couldn't see what it was, he could only see that it was a snake-like thing, and this thing was extremely fast, and it was rushing towards Zhao Qi.
Getting closer, Zhao Qi clenched the torch in his hand.
"Zhao Qi, what the hell is it?" Lily didn't know when she had come to Zhao Qi's side, and said uneasily as she looked at the rapidly approaching object in front of her.
"I don't know." Zhao Qi's eyes were firmly fixed on the object moving on the ground in front of him, and his heart slowly became entangled.
When the two were less than a hundred meters apart, Zhao Qi finally saw what was moving on the ground.
Mummy!
Coming towards the two of them on the ground was the mummy, which had always been closely associated with the pyramid.
They were the same as what Zhao Qi had seen in the Cairo Museum, wrapped in fine linen, with none of his hands and feet exposed, and in front of Zhao Qi were mummies crawling slowly on the ground.
"This is? Ah......h
A mummy isn't scary, but dozens of writhing mummies crawling towards you on the ground are disgusting. The mummies were encased in their entirety, leaving only a large mouth that had been bitten through the sackcloth by themselves, drooling with disgust and a dark red liquid spilling from their eyes. It's scary to look at.
The most important thing is that the sharp-eyed Zhao Qi saw that new mummies kept popping up around the corner in front of him, seemingly endless.
"Lily, there's no other way in this hall, we can only rush through it, or we will be surrounded." Zhao Qi turned his head to Lily and said.
"Don't, don't." Just looking at these mummies was disgusting enough, and letting Lily pass through them now would be as much as killing her. However, what Zhao Qi said is indeed the only way now.
Putting aside the combat effectiveness of these mummies, just the dense and unknown number behind him is not just done by the current Zhao Qi, maybe Zhao Qi can deal with the past, but there is only an empty hall behind him. Sooner or later, she will be overwhelmed by this army of mummies, not to mention Lily, a girl who is already frightened at this time.
"Zhao Qi, isn't this a lot of torches? Wouldn't we just burn them to death? Lily's eyes lit up, and she pointed to the torch in Zhao Qi's hand and said.
"No, there are so many mummies, even if we burn them all, we will be roasted to death. Even if we don't get roasted, we can die from lack of oxygen. In fact, there is another reason for the flame on this torch, Zhao Qizhen is not sure if it can ignite the mummy.
"Less nonsense. I'm carrying you, you close your eyes, or we'll be dead or dead. Not having much time to explain so much to Lily, Zhao Qi stood in front of Lily. Squatted down, urging Lily.
Lily looked at Zhao Qi's back, then at the mummy that was already approaching in front of her, and finally climbed on Zhao Qi's back after a battle in her heart.
"Gotta hold me tight." After admonishing Lily. Zhao Qi's body quickly rushed towards the mummy.
The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, and Zhao Qi could clearly see the big mouths of these mummies that seemed to be about to crack open to his ears, as well as the two dark red blood holes.
"Don't talk about Lily. I was sick myself. The moment the two intersected, Zhao Qi's legs stepped the ground, and his whole body soared into the air, straight past the first few mummies.
However, the distance of this passage was neither large nor small, so that Zhao Qi could neither walk on the ground nor stay above the mummy.
"Get out of here!" Zhao Qi, who had exhausted his strength, kicked the two mummies with their mouths wide open before he fell, and there was suddenly an open space on the ground where he could stay.
As soon as Zhao Qi's feet landed, his knees exerted force again, and the whole person was raised again, advancing a distance of several meters again.
There was the sound of the wind whirring and the ubiquitous roar in her ears, the smell of the strange smell in her nose was extremely fishy, and her body was rising and falling irregularly, even if it was just on Zhao Qi's back, Lily had suffered a lot.
"It's safe right away, hold on a little longer."
Feeling the hands on his neck getting tighter and tighter, as well as the trembling body behind him, Zhao Qi comforted him.
Jumping, falling, jumping up again, falling again, Zhao Qi kept moving forward, and soon, Zhao Qi finally moved to the corner in front of him.
Zhao Qi in the air stood on the wall on the right with one foot, and stood on the wall in front of him with one foot, and a powerful force burst out from his legs, stepping on the two walls with two deep footprints, and with the help of this explosive force, Zhao Qi, who was in mid-air, changed his direction and went towards the passage on the left.
There were a lot of mummies around the corner, and after Zhao Qi kicked the two mummies away again, he had no choice but to step on the head of one of the mummies with both feet.
"Smack~" Under Zhao Qi's huge force, the mummy's head bloomed on the ground like a rotten watermelon, and a large pool of dark red liquid overflowed from the linen, splashing several mummies next to him.
The unknown liquid on his feet seemed to be very sticky, and Zhao Qi's feet were full of this kind of thing.
The moment he landed, Zhao Qi's right foot slipped, and his whole body fell instantly.
Zhao Qi did not panic because of this sudden situation, and with a sharp wave of the torch that he had been holding in his right hand, he knocked a mummy under him aside. Then hold the ground with one hand and quickly sweep the ground with both feet.
The huge force swept away the five or six mummies around Zhao Qi, and the whole person stood on the ground again with both hands. (To be continued......)
