Chapter 2
Li Tianran didn't have time to dodge, the stone hit his wrist hard, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the torch fell! As the torches fell off, in an instant, large and small stones "swished, swished" and smashed into Li Tianran like raindrops. Li Tianran hurriedly turned around, protected the back of his head with one hand, hugged Xiao Luo tightly with the other, and the stone fell on his body, which was extremely painful, and after a few strokes, he was already salty in his mouth, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth! It turned out that the mandrill was afraid of fire, and at first the tentative sneak attack on Li Tianran was just to take the opportunity to knock out the torch in his hand, but now that the torch has landed, the mandrill are no longer afraid, so they went crazy and began to attack Li Tianran!
Xiao Luo, who was tightly protected by Li Tianran, shouted loudly one after another: "Stop!" "But the mandrills don't understand, and even if they do, they won't follow their meanings. Mandrills are short in stature, but they are strangely fast, and they can hunt tigers and leopards in the mountains, not by brute force, but by virtue of wisdom that is a lot higher than ordinary species! They are good at fighting in groups and know how to use tools, and that's what makes them terrifying!
The stones were still smashing at Li Tianran, and there was no tendency to stop, but fortunately, the mandrill was not strong, and only some small stones were used, but this number was too much, and Li Tianran couldn't bear it, and he had been smashed to the ground from the standing state he had just been in. I don't know when, the torch he was smashed and dropped also rolled into the canal, and the tunnel fell into endless darkness again, but in this way, the attack of the mandrill became more fierce, and Li Tianran could clearly feel that they seemed to be approaching him!
Xiao Luo in his arms has already turned from yelling just now to crying bitterly, she was held in her arms by Li Tianran, unable to move, and Li Tianran was also smashed to the point that she seemed to lose consciousness, it seems that the lives of the two are likely to end in the hands of this group of mandrills! Even if he is unwilling, he is helpless, now Li Tianran has long lost the ability to take out the flint from his body, and then run to the side to light the torch, even if he wants to, I'm afraid that the mandrill will not give him such a chance again, he can only slowly close his eyes and wait for the final result...
Suddenly, there was a hysterical scream of mandrills behind Li Tianran, and the raindrops of stones stopped in an instant! Li Tianran opened his eyes with the last of his strength, and slowly looked behind him, only to see a person behind him holding a torch, and the other hand was grabbing a mandrill and smashing it against the wall, and the scream was made by the mandrill! Repeated several times, the mandrill in his hand will no longer move, the man used fire to ignite the mandrill hair in his hand, and the tunnel suddenly brightened up again, this sudden situation also shocked all the mandrills to retreat a little, and did not dare to step forward again! By the light of the fire, Li Tianran finally saw the person who came - it was Li Boyu!
Li Tianran was so excited that his eyes were teary-eyed, and he shouted weakly: "Ah... Brother! And he fell straight down...
"Smack"! The water poured on Li Tianran's face, and he was excited, and finally woke up slowly! His eyes were still a little blurry, but he could still see clearly that it was Li Bo Bird and Xiao Luo who were squatting in front of him! Seeing Li Tianran wake up, Xiaoluo immediately cried bitterly and fell on Li Tianran's chest again! Li Tianran smiled slightly and responded: "Xiaoluo, I... I'm fine! He turned his gaze to Li Boyu again and whispered, "Brother, you... How did you end up here? ”
Li Boyu responded: "It should be the same as you, I was swept up here by the whirlpool at the bottom of the pool, I went in the opposite direction with you, and I heard Xiaoluo crying loudly, so I rushed over... Don't talk about it yet, let's go! The mandrill is still there! As he spoke, he raised the torch in his hand a little higher.
Li Tianran clearly saw that there were mandrills standing not far away, staring at the three of them, but this time there were not more than twenty, at least hundreds! Li Tianran's heart sank, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly climbed up with the support of Li Boyu! But as soon as he exerted his strength, his internal organs were in sharp pain like pins and needles, and he couldn't help vomiting a mouthful of blood! Seeing this, Li Boyu hurriedly set him up, and Li Tianran saw that Li Boyu had already lit five or six torches against the wall! Li Boyu handed Li Tianran one, he and Xiaoluo had two, and then began to move forward slowly back to back. Li Bo said in a low voice: "This mandrill is cunning, in order to prevent them from attacking from our rear, we can only march like this now!" ”
Li Tianran didn't answer, just nodded! The three of them continued back to back! The mandrill did not disperse, but followed the three of them closely, but always maintained a certain distance, and they would definitely rush up at the first opportunity, so in this short stretch of road, the three of them walked extremely hard, and beads of sweat the size of beans were already oozing from their foreheads! Especially Li Tianran, from jumping off the cliff to the present, he has already been seriously injured, and half of his life is lost!
Not long after walking, the mandrill behind him suddenly stopped! Just when Li Boyu and Li Tianran were a little strange, the mandrill ran back in one go! All this happened so suddenly that the two of them were a little confused, but an inexplicable chill hit the hearts of the two of them!
The two of them saw that the mandrill dispersed in a hurry, and immediately turned around slowly, and it turned out that Xiaoluo behind him was already staring at each other, and he looked a little wooden! Li Tianran hurriedly followed Xiaoluo's gaze and looked ahead, and couldn't help but be startled! The tunnel just now has come to an end, and beyond the tunnel is a wide cave, because it is too dark, I can't see how big the cave is, but I can vaguely see a huge statue in the middle of the cave! But I can't see the face clearly! Li Tianran said in a low voice: "I can't think of it... Mandrill is afraid of this statue? ”
Listening to Li Tianran's words, Xiaoluo came back to his senses and slowly responded: "If it is really like what you said, this mandrill has become a spirit, and I will be afraid!" Can... Why is there such a big statue here? Who made it? We should be cautious and not careless! Li Tianran and Li Boyu nodded when they heard this, so the three of them began to walk forward slowly.
The colossus is actually not far from the three people, it is more than ten zhang away, and after a while, the three of them walked to the front, Li Boyu raised the torch, the colossus is made of a boulder, it should be about three zhang high, the face is extremely hideous, a face is angry, people don't feel a little frightened, the costume of the colossus is also a little strange, it is not the Buddha statue in the temple, and the three of them don't know who it is for a while.
Li Boyu raised the torch again and looked around, and suddenly saw a big stone tablet standing next to the colossus, Li Boyu hurriedly walked over, illuminated the stone tablet with a torch, and saw that the stone tablet was written with a small seal with eight big characters: "God protects the ancestral dragon, and the trespasser is dead!" As soon as Li Tianran finished reading it, he couldn't help but gasp. Because when he saw the stele, it was full of humanoid bones! But if you look closely, these white bones are a little smaller than human bones, more like those mandrills just now! Li Tianran unconsciously glanced at the colossus beside him again, and the inexplicable sense of oppression and majesty forced Li Tianran to take two steps back, and then said in a low voice: "We must be careful, there must be something strange here!" No wonder those mandrills didn't dare to enter just now! ”
"Huh? The Colossus seemed to blink. Xiaoluo suddenly said in surprise.
Xiao Luo's sentence startled Li Boyu on the side, and he hurriedly answered: "How can this stone statue blink? You must be reading it wrong. But as soon as he finished speaking, he unconsciously looked into the eyes of the stone statue! But suddenly, Li Boyu was so frightened that he took a step back and said in surprise: "Look! The statue really blinked! ”
Hearing this, Li Tianran hurriedly looked at the eyes of the stone, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he said in horror: "No, it's not the stone statue blinking, it's that there is something moving in its eyes!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a lot of black worms began to pour out densely from the eyes, nostrils, and ears of the colossus, but because it was too dark in all directions, it was impossible to see what it was. "Ahh Xiaoluo shouted, it turned out that it was only a moment of effort, and dense black insects also gushed out from the cracks in the floor of the big bluestone, and the originally blue-white stone slab suddenly turned black and yellow.
Some of the fast ones had actually crawled in front of the three of them, and Li Boyu suddenly screamed "ah", it turned out that he had been bitten by a black worm, and the sharp pain that drilled his heart made him unable to control it at all, so he could only wail loudly! Li Tianran hurriedly attacked the black worm with a torch, but the black worm didn't seem to be afraid of fire at all, although some were burned to death, they still kept rushing to the three of them!
"Run!" Xiaoluo shouted loudly, the three of them didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the tunnel just now, but after running a few steps, they suddenly remembered the mandrill in the tunnel, Li Tianran hesitated for a moment, but Xiaoluo didn't give him time to hesitate, and dragged him up and continued to run back like crazy.
Li Boyu shouted loudly: "It seems to be an ant!" It's just that... It's much bigger than you usually see! ”
Li Tianran and Xiaoluo were tired of running for their lives, and they didn't talk, they had no time to care about what this was, even if they knew it, they couldn't do anything for a while! After running a few steps, Li Tianran found that as expected, at some point, the mandrills that had been scattered just now came back again, and stood densely at the mouth of the tunnel, all holding stones waiting for the three of them to return! Li Tianran had a plan, and immediately shouted loudly: "The three of us... Dive in! Quote them ... Warring! ”
As soon as the words fell, the two of them understood, so the three of them continued to run towards the mandrill with a firm goal, and the mandrill was also waiting for him! But just within a stone's throw of the mandrill, the three of them suddenly turned around under the leadership of Li Tianran, and jumped into the canal on the side! At this time, the mandrill found that the three of them had already surged behind them, and dense black worms had already surged...
The hysterical screams of the mandrill herds were immediately heard in the tunnel!! The voice was louder and louder...
