Chapter 159: The Terrifying Horseshoe Crab

The sky suddenly darkened, the rain and snow flew even more, and at this time, there was a great chaos on the deck, and one after another strange creatures climbed up along the hull of the ship, and even a few larger creatures jumped up like this. Attack the people on the Fortune Ship! The people on the deck suddenly panicked.

"Damn it, what the hell!"

"Don't, don't come near me!"

"Quick, get out of the deck and get inside!"

Song Ge stabbed the strange creature that jumped at him with a shot, and suddenly felt that the head of the dark spear was heavy, looking at the creatures around him or climbing up or jumping up, he didn't bother to shake off the weight on the hidden spear, and just hid in the hull of the ship with the people.

"Ah, help me."

"Don't eat me, don't eat me!"

"River God, I was wrong."

The people were scattered to the lower two floors, just like that, Song Ge and the others stood on the fourth floor, just looking outside, it was okay not to look at it, and when they saw it, everyone was absolutely taken aback.

One lightning bolt after another pierced the sky, illuminating the situation in front of everyone.

One after another creatures with red shells poured on the deck, the number was so hairy that the dead people who had not had time to escape lay on the deck, and everyone saw that the red creatures were lying on top of them, and then they actually ate with a 'click'.

It's not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that after those creatures have eaten, there is nothing left on the deck, not even some bone residue!

"This creature is!"

It was also at this time that the hull of the ship suddenly became heavier and slowly sank.

Everyone panicked all of a sudden, why did the ship sink all of a sudden.

"What's that?" Song Ge was also a little at a loss, looked around, and saw that their expressions were also indifferent.

"River gods, river gods, they are river gods", a common man suddenly rushed to the fourth layer, pounced and kowtowed to Song Ge and said: "My lord, you can't go any further, this is the territory of the river god, let's retreat, retreat, my lord!" Maybe it's still too late. ”

Before the words fell, I saw an object suddenly jump into the face of the people, and the people stood up at once, desperately trying to tear off the heavy object on their heads, but the next second, when the monster screamed, it clicked like this, and the monster cut off the people's heads.

It happened so suddenly, and everyone didn't even react at all, only to see the blood from the man's severed head shoot out like this.

Kneeling down again, the remnants of the people's consciousness made his hands keep crawling forward, probably suddenly realizing that he was dead, and suddenly began to twitch his body, and after a few seconds, he was really dead.

That creature was the creature that Song Ge was too lazy to pull out on the secret spear, Song Ge was startled, he clearly remembered that this creature had been stabbed by himself, how could it suddenly change to this state, couldn't it be killed!

"Hey, I'm so grumpy, see if I don't trample this thing", the vulture wanted to attack, but found that the space here was too small, and his ability was definitely restricted.

Song Ge looked at the creature that was enjoying the food, and was suddenly stunned, could this thing be like a zombie, it had to cut off its head, or smash it to pieces?

But the creature in front of him was like a big turtle, it didn't know where the head was, and what was even more peculiar was its back, the shell was like an iron block, and it was difficult for ordinary weapons to penetrate it.

Thinking of the large number of women's hair salvaged from the anchor in the south, could it be that the caravan in Jizhou was eaten by them? This creature doesn't even spare bones, which explains why the ship is empty!

"What to do? What to do? Little Joe panicked again, especially when he saw the red creatures outside the window slowly crawling towards him.

"This thing", Song Ge's eagle eyes opened and wanted to recover one or two creatures, but to his disappointment, this thing was not an animal, and he couldn't ambush it at all!

Suddenly, I thought of the worm army I saw in the Guiguzi tomb that day, and the king of the worm can be scared away by his heavy pupils, so do you have to use this trick!

However, just when Song Ge was about to open his pupils, a person rushed in, holding a torch burning with blue flames in his hand, exuding a pungent smell, and the strange creature saw the torch and immediately spit out the half-eaten head as if it had seen a ghost, and fled to the side in fright.

It turns out that it's a strict government!

I saw Yan Zheng snort coldly, and then kicked over the strange creature, and just stuffed the blue torch into the creature's ugly swirling mouth, and suddenly, a foul smell came out, and in the next second, the strange creature quickly curled up and died.

"It is! Although it was very foul", Song Ge smelled a strange smell from the air!

This blue flame actually smells of sulfur!

At the same time, there was a roar on the deck, and I saw the fifty sin soldiers rushing out like this, driving and killing these strange red creatures everywhere.

"Why do these guys have sulfur! And what the hell is that weird creature! ”

After killing this monster, Yan Zheng smiled coldly, regardless of the thoughts of others, and after looking at a hole in the back shell of the creature, he actually sat down, held the red creature in his arms, and meticulously began to cut along the edge of the shell with a dagger.

The ship began to move normally again, but slowly, and everyone believed that the red creatures must still be sucking on the hull.

When I saw it, I saw that those sin soldiers were actually like this strict government, everyone was sitting on the ground, holding a red creature in their arms, and they were cutting the edge of the red creature's shell.

The blue torches burn even in heavy rain and snow, and if you look at this lucky ship from a distance, it will be like seeing a ghost ship

"This is called a horseshoe crab", Yan Zheng said without raising his head: "It's an ancient creature, it's normal if you haven't seen it." ”

After that, Yan Zheng turned the red creature over, pointed at this thing and said:

"The creature had a broad horseshoe-shaped cephalothorax, a much smaller, segmented belly, and a long, pointed tail sword. The cephalothorax is smooth and raised, with a pair of compound eyes on the sides and a pair of ultraviolet-sensing monocular eyes at the anterior end of the midridge. The ventral surface of the cephalothorax has 6 pairs of appendages: the first pair is called chelicerae, which are used specifically to catch worms, thin-shelled molluscs and other prey; The other five pairs of appendages surround the mouth and function as walking and eating, each with a long spine on the inside of the basal ganglia that peels off food and rolls it into the mouth. Behind the basal ganglion of the last pair of steps is a pair of vestigial appendages, called the lobes, which are like a whirlpool with sharp teeth that can eat many creatures, including humans. ”

"If my guess is correct, this creature of this size should be considered a special species of horseshoe crab," Yan Zheng said, "The dorsal shell of this thing is very hard, the cephalothorax and abdomen are raised to the back, the front is rounded and thick, the back tends to be flattened, and the back is extended at the tail of the sword, and there are lateral border spines along the outer edge of the abdomen. ”

After that, Yan Zheng glanced at Song Ge and praised: "You have a good weapon." ”

"Horseshoe crabs?" Song Ge heard of this kind of creature for the first time, he was very curious about why this kind of creature appeared in the Wei River, and he was also curious about why Yan Zheng knew so much, and even more curious, where did Yan Zheng find those sulfur blocks!

"You take it", Yan Zheng suddenly threw the shaved horseshoe crab shell to Song Ge, and then said: "Just take it as a meeting gift, thank you for helping us redeem ourselves." ”

"This ......" Song Ge held the horseshoe crab shell about 60 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide, a little uneven, a little overwhelmed.

"This thing is better than an ordinary shield, you can hold it well", after finishing speaking, under the attention of everyone, Yan Zheng suddenly came to Song Ge's side and stabbed the dagger on the shield fiercely.

With a 'dang' sound, the dagger only left a faint white line on the horseshoe crab shell, and under the full strength of Yan Zheng, this dagger was actually blunt.

"Good thing", Song Ge never thought that the horseshoe crab group that was in crisis just now, but now it was actually resolved by Yan Zheng, and he also made a weird but very durable shield for himself.

"By the way, Yan Zheng" Song Ge still couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and asked: "How do you know so many things, and what ......is the blue torch?"

Yan Zheng smiled coldly, and after asking Tai Shici on the side for a pot of spirits, he took two sips before he said slowly: "A few days ago, Mengshan broke out, do you know it. ”

Song Ge nodded, of course he knew, and this Dream Mountain outbreak seemed to have a lot to do with him.

"At that time, a village in the northern part of Jun County was hit by Mengshan, and the Han army ordered us to go there to search and rescue...... And it was there that we found these foul-smelling objects that burn blue flames. ”

With that, Yan Zheng took out a jar from his pocket, which contained a small sulfur block.

Speaking of this, Yan Zheng smiled coldly and said, "We originally wanted to use these things to cause some trouble for the Han army guards in Jun County, but a few days later, we received another mission, and an old man and another Han army went to Weihe to search and rescue a caravan in Jizhou......"

"I know that the Han army has given us some mortal missions", said sternly and fiercely: "When we took the search and rescue ship here, we found the ship and after boarding the ship, we found these damn creatures, and the Han army was half killed, just when we thought we were going to die all, we were ready to die together and burn the ship." ”

"It was at this time that we discovered that these creatures called horseshoe crabs in the old man's mouth were actually afraid of these blue flames...... Yan Zheng continued, "So, it took us a lot of effort to get this lucky ship back to Weihe Harbor. ”
