Chapter 63: Yongdao (2nd Watch)

Zilong could only shake his head and say no, and then watched the huge spider slowly crawl along the rope to his hand, motionless.

Min Ying seemed to believe Zilong and breathed a deep sigh of relief, but Zilong suddenly extinguished the torch and said in a trembling voice: "Go on, everyone be careful." ”

Although Zilong's voice was as calm as possible, his heart beat harder than anyone else, because before the torches were extinguished, he saw hundreds of spiders on the cave wall, rapidly climbing upward.

Zilong held the torch and had the best sight, and under the light of the fire, he could even see the hairs on each spider's body, swaying with the breeze brought by the spider's crawling.

Each spider seemed to be startled by the glare of the light as it passed by the firelight, and then flagged its teeth and claws in a defensive stance, ready to scare off the uninvited intruders.

Zilong's first reaction was to quickly extinguish the torches, otherwise with the faint light of the fire, without waiting for these spiders to attack, I was afraid that when I saw their appearance, the eldest lady above my head would be at a loss.

Looking at the appearance of the spiders, Zilong probably knew that these were burrowing tarantulas, burrowing tarantulas were so poisonous that they could easily poison an adult.

When the hairs on the tarantula get into the eyeball, anyone will be blind, and if it gets into the mouth and into the digestive tract, it can also cause severe diarrhea and gastrointestinal cramps.

If you are bitten by them, within half an hour, even if you don't die, your whole body will be swollen, your mind will be in a trance, and your breath will emit a foul smell.

If the unlucky spider venom bursts out, the corpse of the deceased will emit a pungent fishy smell, and the fishy smell coming from the bottom of the cave is the corpse odor of the spider venom attack and the corpse of the dead, but I don't know if it is a human corpse or the remains of an animal.

The burrowing tarantula has been in a dark environment for a long time, and the most fearful thing is the firelight, Zilong extinguishing the fire is also afraid of angering the tarantula, and the enraged tarantula will launch a madness, I am afraid that none of the five people who entered the hole will be spared.

Fortunately, the fire was extinguished at this time, and everyone secretly loosened their tight heartstrings.

People are always so strange that when facing the unknown, they are afraid of the dark, but when there is light in the darkness and they see their situation clearly, they are even more afraid than in the dark.

At this time, everyone hopes that they can't see anything, Zilong's choice gives them this opportunity, and sometimes it's not so bad.

At least, at this time, you can only hear bursts of hissing sounds, and if you see the dense tarantulas on the cave wall, I'm afraid no one is not creepy.

Fortunately, the pit viper cave is not too deep, and after connecting three sets of ropes, he has come to the bottom of the pit viper cave, and when he stepped on the ground with his feet, Niu Ichiro didn't have the heart to laugh, because the soft touch was really not very comfortable.

"In the end, watch your step!"

Niu Ichiro's shout made the other four people seem to see the dawn of victory, and they hurriedly accelerated their speed, went down to the bottom of the cave one after another, and let go of their already numb hands.

"I'm tired, I wouldn't have come with you to join in the fun."

Min Ying, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, still didn't forget to squeeze Zilong, and didn't pay attention to the feeling coming from under her feet at all.

Zilong didn't care about arguing with Min Ying, and roughly estimated that the pit viper cave was about seventy zhang deep, and this number was still within his estimation range.

First take a deep breath, feel the damp air, and get used to the damp and rotten turbid smell, Zilong took out the fire tool and lit a torch.

Along with the firelight, Min Ying's screams also came, and everyone was frightened by him and jumped up subconsciously.

But I heard Zilong say: "Don't be afraid, it's just a little spider!" ”

Although Zilong said lightly, everyone couldn't help but look at him with the eyes of a monster, is this a little spider? Each one has a square foot, and it is even called a "little spider"? The fluff on his body is almost as thick as grass, don't be kidding, okay?

Several people were terrified in their hearts, looking at several giant burrowing tarantulas on the ground from a distance, and found that they were motionless, and couldn't help but wonder, Niu Erlang had the courage to take a few steps forward.

"What a fuss, I'll take a look!"

is worried in his heart, but he pretends to be calm on his face, Niu Erlang is reckless, but it doesn't mean that he will like these little monsters.

I casually touched a stick-like thing on the ground, stared at the motionless tarantula without blinking, and quickly clicked it with the stick, but there was no movement.

Niu Erlang was a little bolder, and he stirred up two times, but there was still no movement, now Niu Erlang was relieved, and turned around and said, "It's okay, it's dead!" ”

As he spoke, he threw the stick on his shoulder, but he saw Zilong's ghostly expression in the firelight, and couldn't help but wonder: "Are you as for it?" Scared like this? ”

After speaking, I suddenly felt an itch on my wrist, and it seemed that something crawled into my sleeve, and when I slapped it casually, I felt that there was some liquid sprayed on the skin, sticky and disgusting.

He stretched out his hand to take a look, and he was shocked by what he saw.

Countless things as small as grit are constantly being used from the wrist, this scene can make Niu Erlang surprised, subconsciously shook his hand, and found that the stick in his hand turned out to be a piece of white bone left by something.

Over time, the white bones have been hollowed out, and these gritty-like things are drilled out of the hollow hollow of the empty bone rod.

My heart was numb, my hand trembled, and I quickly threw out the white bones, and the white bones fell to the ground, and suddenly there was a hissing sound, mixed with two loud roars, which frightened Min Ying to cover her ears tightly, and Jia Siqian jumped directly on Zilong's back.

Zilong hurriedly waved the torch in his hand in front of several people, and the scene in front of them made them instantly make up their minds - run!

Several people were at a loss and panicked, and the other three had already run along a corridor on the cave wall, but Min Ying was stunned and couldn't take a step, standing stupidly in place.

She regrets it now, how could she be blinded by mutton fat in the first place, pestering Zilong to come to this ghost place, what she hates most in her life is spiders, not to mention that there are two big tarantulas one foot square in front of her, with countless little tarantulas, crawling towards her quickly.

Seeing that the little tarantula was already close in front of her, she immediately climbed onto her little leather boots, Min Ying forgot to react in a hurry, and tears couldn't stop flowing, what should I do?

At this moment, she suddenly felt a warm thug pull up his little hand that was full of cold sweat because of fear, and the slight temperature made her feel at ease.

Following an irresistible force pulling her towards the corridor where the others had left, Min Ying had time to take a look, the man was holding a torch in his hand, and under the faint light of the fire, he seemed to be incarnated into a star close in front of him.

He didn't say a word, occasionally looking back at the situation behind him, the familiar face under the firelight, hazy and hazy as if in a dream, Min Ying looked at that face, and actually forgot the fear.

"Stinky thief?"

It turned out to be Zilong, he ran out two steps, and when he saw that Min Ying didn't follow, he hurriedly turned around to look for it, and when he rushed to Min Ying's side, he saw that she was in a daze when he saw the tarantula crawling densely crawling all over the cave wall, and secretly said badly.

Without saying a word, it was confirmed that the hot blood skill was activated, and the speed soared, and Min Ying ran away, catching up with the other three in a few steps.

After the round, the group ran for their lives, panting violently. Breath, lingering in their ears, they could no longer hear the disgusting sound of the tarantula crawling, only running.

Suddenly, Zilong only felt that his body fell, and then heard the sound of Min Ying falling to the ground, this eldest lady, who seemed to have no strength, stumbled, stumbled on a piece of gravel, and fell.

Zilong grabbed Min Ying's hand tightly, and his body also leaned down and fell.

The two of them ran too fast, and after falling to the ground, they couldn't stop their bodies, and rolled forward, Zilong threw away the torch and protected Min Ying in his arms with his big hand.

Rolling out of the distance, the two of them had severe pain in their bodies, and they were lying on the ground panting. They knew that what was waiting for them might be countless tarantulas, dismembering the two of them and turning them into food for tarantulas.

The three of them heard the sound of falling to the ground behind them, and hurriedly turned around to pull Zilong and Min Ying up.

Suddenly, they found that the fire was raging, and several people were shocked, and when they looked back, they saw that the entire cave wall seemed to be installed with a wall of fire, and bursts of explosions broke out from time to time.

The chasing tarantulas couldn't stop their bodies for a while, and rushed into the wall of fire one after another, turning into flying ashes in a blink of an eye, and the tarantulas who were prepared behind hurriedly stopped pursuing, but were squeezed into the wall of fire by the unwitting tarantulas behind them.

For a while, I don't know how many tarantulas died in the wall of fire, which made them anxious, and the two largest tarantulas screamed at Zilong and others behind the wall of fire, but to no avail.

In the damp and rancid air, there were two more smells, one was the pungent smell of some kind of burning, and the other was the foul smell emitted by the tarantula corpse after it was burned.

Seeing this scene, Zilong and his entourage breathed a sigh of relief, but they were very strange, why there was a wall of fire here.

Zilong turned around and saw the torch that had been burned out of shape, thoughtfully, and walked towards the wall of fire in a daze, Min Ying couldn't help but shout when he saw it: "Stinky thief, what are you doing?" ”

Zilong smiled back, motioned for them to rest first, squatted down, and looked at the wall of fire three steps away, the scorching of the flames made him feel a heat wave coming, and the closer he got to the wall of fire, the stronger the pungent smell.

There was something black in the firelight, flowing slowly, and everywhere it went, it was engulfed in flames. The thing was black and greasy, and Zilong approached despite the heat, dipped a little in a torch, and sent it to the front to smell it.

How can there be oil here? Zilong was puzzled in his heart, looked around, and there was no oil coming out of nowhere, and he realized in his heart, could it be that someone left it on purpose?

Zilong thought about it, it seems that the earliest record of oil in history should be discovered by Shen Kuo of the Song Dynasty, but this does not rule out that someone discovered oil before him, but it was not named and recorded.

Thinking of this, Zilong was even more sure that this must be an artificially dug road, and it is unknown whether it may really be an emperor's mound.

Looking at the two giant tarantulas looking at each other across the fire, Zilong smiled slightly, waved goodbye, came back to his senses, and secretly wondered what other bizarre things were waiting for him to experience.
