Chapter 41: About the Collapse

Chapter 41 on collapse

The outer skin of the spherical rhizome turned out to be more familiar than I imagined, and it didn't break after rolling on the ground twice, those red dots were not afraid, and they were still gradually shrinking the encirclement, I was thinking about rushing over, and suddenly the cold light flashed in front of me, and Uncle Lu's short sword stabbed the spherical rhizome steadily, and a gray liquid gushed out of it, yes, it was gray, and in the dark tomb, the bay of water emitted a silver-gray slight light, as if it was dusty mercury.

This trick really worked, those one-eyed bats seemed to be burned, and hid to high places, and there were one or two unlucky ones, who were drenched in the Lethe River water, fell to the ground, shook a few times and did not move, and the red dots gradually disappeared, as if they were dead. But as soon as this spherical rhizome was punctured, the pungent smell of whirring became even stronger, and the smell was even more disgusting than the high concentration of ammonia, Dazhe couldn't stand it anymore and began to vomit when he lay on the ground, and I also squatted on the ground and felt my stomach churning all the time.

Yun Ximing was unconscious, only Uncle Lu was still insisting, he tore a few strips of cloth from his clothes, threw them to me and Dazhe, and covered his mouth and nose himself. He kept digging out more spherical rhizomes, and I didn't care about that much, so I endured the nausea and helped Uncle Lu dig out the rhizomes containing Lethe water one after another, and there were more puddles formed by the surrounding Lethe spring water, and those red dots were all forced to the top of our heads, but these Lethe spring water volatilized quickly, and the puddles were constantly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. Uncle and I have dug a lot of bulbs, Ji Ziyang signaled that we can move forward, I pulled out a simple sleeping bag, unfolded it, strangled Yun Ximing's armpit, and dragged him behind him, Dazhe and Uncle Lu gritted their teeth and crawled forward, we planned to retreat to the entrance of the cemetery in one go, and go up to the ground to make plans again.

However, we had just taken two steps, and suddenly I saw Dazhe's body rolling strangely, as if something was shaking under his body to drive him, he shook violently, and before I could react, the ground under my feet also began to shake violently, and before we could react, the blue bricks above my head fell in response. I was in a hurry, bent down and slid past Yun Ximing's side, rolled forward on the spot, and then pulled hard, Yun Ximing and I had already retreated about three meters away. On the other side, the uncle stuck his other short sword on the ground, as a fulcrum, bowed up, grabbed the sword with one hand, and grabbed Dazhe with the other, and made a spin, relying on inertia, both of them were thrown to a meter in front of me, I quickly rushed over and dragged the two of them over, looking at the place where we were standing just now, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

The place where we just stood was full of green bricks and stones, those green bricks are very ordinary green bricks, but each of those stones has hundreds of catties, and even some are larger, when this tomb was built, it must have built a double wall on the ground, and the middle was filled with these boulders and sediment.

The great philosopher scolded angrily, and kept complaining, "Yin Yin, does your ancestor have a tendency to be abused, it's not enough to be abused, but also to involve you, a junior, don't you have yin and yang eyes, you see if he is here, let her show us the way." โ€

Naturally, I wasn't in the mood to argue with Dazhe, Uncle Lu looked at me, "Girl, we have to get out of here quickly." As he spoke, he drew his dagger and swung it above his head, and a one-eyed bat hit the ground, and I looked up to see that the collapse had buried a lot of Lethe water, and the red dots were gathering together into a wall at a great speed, and they were surrounding us.

"For today's plan, we can only take one step at a time, let's go inside." I said, as I spoke, I dragged Yun Ximing up again, and I felt the restless surge under his skin even more intense.

Without further ado, I dragged Yun Ximing in front of me to open the way with Lethe River water, where there was Lethe River water, those red dots were afraid to dodge everywhere, Da Zhe and Uncle Lu's legs were not yet conscious, and they even rolled and crawled behind me, they kept cutting down the laughing grass vines in front of them and piling them on both sides to pave the way for Ji Ziyang, and our group moved forward in a strange way that had never been seen before.

No one spoke along the way, we all just wanted to move forward as much as possible, from time to time there were those red dots on the top of my head that would suddenly fall down to give us a surprise attack, and I killed them one by one, but I suddenly found that it was not good, where Yun Ximing's hand was injured at the beginning, there were already white antennae-like larvae coming out, I thought about stopping, first help him pick these things off with a dagger, who knew that as soon as I stopped, the red dots on my head began to attack us again.

"Don't stop, go a little further, and you'll be there in no time." Ji Ziyang's figure suddenly appeared in front of me, I gritted my teeth, threw the bulb in my hand, and dragged Yun Ximing to continue walking, sure enough, as Ziyang said, I walked forward about ten meters, and a clearing appeared in front of me, this is a real clearing, those smiling vines have not grown, as if they are afraid of these and deliberately dodging. I turned on my flashlight and shook it, and there were still green bricks above and around us, and the mud under our feet was gone, and we were firmly stepping on a large stone slab, which was smooth and smooth, as if paved with a whole block of marble. The red dots were neatly stacked in front of the slate, but none of them crossed the slab.

Ji Ziyang appeared behind me, "You can rest here for a while, they don't seem to dare to come up." "I looked at his figure, and he turned back into a physical one, and he was still handsome.

"You...... Are you alright? I asked.

"It's okay, there's no sap from the flowers here." I let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the floor.

I didn't stop a single step from the long-distance run just now, and now I feel like I'm falling apart. Dazhe and Uncle Lu were all milky white vine juice, and they also exuded the unpleasant smell of Lechuan water, and they didn't care about being disgusted now, sitting against the blue brick wall, gasping for breath, and a few of us fell into a mess, a wolf bรจi that we had never had.

"Yin Yin, how many roots do you still have with laughing grass?" Thistle asked me.

"There are four or five more." I glanced at the backpack behind me, it was the emergency kit that Dazhe was carrying at the moment, and there were several spherical rhizomes stuffed in it at the moment, bulging.

"Break them, rub them on their wounds, and see if it works, this thing is afraid of Lethe River, it should have some effect."

I nodded, punctured the two bulbs, handed them to Uncle and Dazhe, and then walked over to take care of Yun Ximing, his injuries were the worst, his body was covered with redness and swelling, and his pants were almost all covered with vine juice and those disgusting mucus, I took off the clothes on his upper body, and the injuries on his upper body were not strict, and I didn't care about whether men and women gave or not, and I smeared Yun Ximing with those unpleasant smelling Lechuan water.

"Ziyang, do you say this is fate, we just entered this tomb, and we caught up with the earthquake and were trapped here." I asked Ji Ziyang next to me, and he looked at me and said slowly.

"It's not an earthquake, there's a big guy down there, and it doesn't seem to welcome us."

"It's wanting...... Come out? โ€

"Either it wants to come out, or it doesn't want us out!"
