Chapter 134: The Ghost Door Opens
After the dead silence, there was a sound like a crystal shattering, echoing throughout the secret room. The bugs froze there as if they had become fossils. Looking up, there was a pinch of vermilion shards on the ground behind him.
The three of us looked at each other, and neither of us dared to act rashly, for fear that it would only be the calm before another storm.
"Yang ......"
"Shh I told them to stop talking and slowly get up.
The dagger also stood on the "ghost gate", like a tombstone. All the bugs were like dead, maintaining their previous posture and position, and surrounded us in the middle.
"Sizzle......"
Holding his breath, his heart beating wildly, a faint sound came from nowhere, like the sound of quicksand pouring down. Cold sweat soaked my back, and the feeling of uneasiness in my heart became more and more inexplicable.
"What sound?" After such a catastrophe, the bald head looked nervous, and half-crouched to look around, trying to find the source of the sound.
"The ghost door of the underground three zhang is open", and the ghost door is open...... The hell door opens! Could it be that the "ghost door" is about to open!
The sound of quicksand sliding became louder and louder, and the group of strange insects slowly reacted, and a few of them crawled over at intervals, and we solved them one by one.
The "ghost door" hasn't opened yet, but these bugs have already reacted, do it again? Perhaps the best outcome is just to die together.
I threw myself into the pit like crazy, and it took a lot of effort to pull out the dagger, and suddenly the insects began to stir again, and the sound of the hard shells rubbing against each other became rapid and chaotic, and the bald head jumped down and scuffled with me.
"What the hell! Are you going to kill us?! The bald head grabbed my neck and roared, and a punch hit my eyebrow bone, it was really painful and numb, "You're not a fucking scourge, what?!" ”
Bent his knees and hit him hard, turned over, buckled his neck in turn, and angrily exchanged punches: "Dead bald!" You know a! Either give me a hand, or get out of the way and stay honest, don't do anything, believe it or not, I'll throw you in the pile of bugs?! ”
"Blind to the gods", "the ghost door opens", now the gods are blind, but the ghost door has not yet opened. As the saying goes: the difference is a millimeter, the error is a thousand miles, the matter is not over at all, even if I don't do it, it won't be long before the group of insects will attack again.
Xiao Xiao lay on the side with a calm face, holding a gun in one hand and pointing at the bald head, and the bald head quieted down and glared at me.
"Can you get another torch out?" After the fight just now, the torch has long been extinguished, and it will take some time to open this ghost door, and I don't want to find a way to drag it out, and then it will be a dead end.
Xiao Xiao nodded in response, I saw that she had also been bitten by a few wounds, but a large piece of blood was printed, so let her stay on it, take the torch, and stare at the group of insects. Then he threw a folding shovel and a saber to the bald head, and asked him to chisel with him.
Speaking of which, I didn't see the real ghost gate just now, just the dagger stabbed it, what the ghost gate is like, and what will be behind the ghost gate, I don't know anything. Maybe it's our way out, maybe it's a bigger threat, but it's better than waiting to die doing nothing.
The sound of quicksand grew louder and louder, gradually overshadowing the noise of the swarm rubbing, and for a moment I thought that this place was going to be buried by quicksand.
A part of a huge dark rock gradually appeared underneath, and he glanced at the bald head, chanted three times silently, and at the same time pressed hard at the crack that had been chiseled out before, and suddenly his feet trembled, followed by a violent tremor.
The sound of quicksand disappeared and turned into a more powerful crashing sound, like the sound of collapse when an earthquake came, and the entire chamber began to shake, and the space began to appear in a distorted posture, and almost instantly, it lost its center of gravity and balance.
The strange insects no longer attack us, as if frightened, they become restless and agitated, crawling around aimlessly, attacking each other.
The rift grew larger and wider, eventually spanning the entire chamber, and the floor of the chamber was split in two and sank to the middle, like a door that was pushed down - the ghost door opened!
I grabbed Xiao Xiao and slid into it along the wider and wider cracks, the mud was mixed with the corpses and stumps of countless strange insects, and the last time I saw that the bald head was still trying to climb up, the world behind the ghost gate was an existence that even those insects were afraid of, but I didn't have a choice.
The bald head finally slipped off, and with an unwilling roar, he fell into the bottomless darkness behind the ghost gate.
The moment I landed, Xiao Xiao slammed into me, and I couldn't help but snort, my brain buzzed, and countless mud mixed with corpses and corpse fluid rolled down on my body, and I was covered with that disgusting sour smell.
There was a swelling in my brain for no apparent reason, as if something was infinitely expanding inside, waiting for the moment it exploded, and then rushed out. Curled up on the ground in pain and rolled several times, almost unable to breathe, during which he seemed to hear Xiao Xiao's screams and bald scolding, and it seemed to be just auditory hallucinations, and in a trance, only sharp tinnitus remained.
I don't know how long it took, but I recovered slightly, took a few deep breaths, and there was silence all around the darkness, and only the faint sound of insects crawling was left after my breathing.
"Xiao Xiao?" Struggling to stand up, the height of the fall just now is at least three or four stories high, if it weren't for the constant borrowing in the process, as well as the cushion of broken soil, it is estimated that two bones would have to be broken in the best case.
No one answered.
"Dead bald?!"
The sound echoed layer by layer, and all that responded to me was an eerie, distant echo, which in this case seemed particularly terrifying.
It took me a few touches to turn on my headlamp, but there was no one around me, except for the piles of debris and a few angry insects.
In addition to the familiar sour smell in the air, I don't know where a strange fragrance wafted from, which seemed familiar.
"Boy."
When I heard this voice, I trembled all over, from head to toe, and when I turned around slowly, what I saw was that familiar and somewhat unfamiliar face - Uncle Yuan!
He was wearing a camel-colored coat and was sitting a few paces away on the dirt slope, a cigarette in his hand, and his mouth was full of stubble, looking at me with a relaxed expression.
Source ...... Uncle Yuan......? "I can't believe my eyes, am I stupid and hallucinating?" You're not ......."
"Dead, right?" He jumped down, raised his hand and gave me a melon seed, "I said that you young people, you can't see me like this, is there anyone like you who curses the elders?" ”
I opened my mouth, I didn't know what to say, my heart was happy and confused, all kinds of emotions were tangled together, and I almost cried with excitement.
"Uncle Yuan, you're not dead, are you really not dead?"
He glared at me angrily: "Otherwise, it's a ghost standing in front of you!" After a pause, he took a deep puff of his cigarette and asked, "How did you get here?" ”
sighed, it's hard to say, and I don't know how much Uncle Yuan knows.
"Uncle Yuan, how did you get saved, we obviously saw you being hooked and ...... snake that day" I made a burp expression and diverted the topic.
He glanced at me, then at the live insects in the rubble around me, and pushed me: "As you walk, you should not stay here for a long time." ”
