Seeing Pang Xiaodou's serious expression, Gazruvi naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately took out two [gas masks] and put them on his face one by one. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It was only at this time that Pang Xiaodou's face relaxed slightly.

Gazruvi hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but ask angrily through the sound of the [Gas Mask] urn, "Warrior, what did you just say this tree is called Zombie Locust?" What is it that scares you so much? ”

"This tree is not scary, in fact it is just an ordinary locust tree."

Pang Xiaodou shook his head and said seriously, "The really terrifying thing is the fungal plants that grow out of the heads of those corpses that look like dandelions or dog's tail grass, which can also be called 'zombie fungi'. ”

"It's a zombie fungus that spreads a colorless, odorless spores in the air that humans or animals inhale can infestation and grow at a very rapid rate."

"As it grows, the zombie fungus releases an alkaloid chemical that controls the brain and muscles, so that infected humans or animals become walking dead at their disposal, but it won't last long, and because of the needs of the zombie fungus's growth environment, the walking dead will eventually hang themselves on the branches and die stiffly, as you can see."

"And the people who first saw this phenomenon only knew one thing and didn't know the other, so they called it zombie locust based on what they saw."

In fact, many people don't know that this zombie fungus is also real in reality, and it exists in tropical rainforest areas such as Africa, Brazil, and Thailand.

It's just that due to the change of environment and species, most of their abilities have been degraded, and now they can only affect small life such as ants.

Those ants infected with zombie fungi no longer have their own behavior and life.

The last stage of their lives is also the most painful and terrifying, in the last few hours of their lives, "zombie ants" will crawl under the leaves they are on, bite the central vein of the leaves with their jaws, and thus trap themselves on the leaves, while the parasitic fungi are also locked on the leaves.

In the final stages of infection, the brains of zombie ants grow with visible fungi like the "dandelions" or "dog-tail grass" that grow from these spiders or dried corpses.

In fact, this "zombie ant" phenomenon and the parasitic fungi behind it were not discovered by scientists at Harvard University in the United States until 1931, and found on a 48-million-year-old fossilized leaf.

48 million years ago, even the Himalayas were not uplifted......

Of course, this is just a scientist's discovery.

The predecessors of the Captain of the Golden School went earlier than those scientists discovered, and what they discovered was not just the kind of zombie fungus that was harmless to humans, but this kind of "zombie locust" that took people's lives invisibly.

After all, most of the places they entered were some isolated and special ancient tombs, and it was too normal for such places to leave some unknown ancient relics, or even some kind of mutation.

What's more, there are some things that are deliberately cultivated or transplanted here by the owner of the tomb in order to protect his tomb from outsiders.

Of course, the trees attached to the so-called "zombie locust" are not just locust trees, but all kinds of them, but a long time ago, people did not understand the scientific truth, and could only regard it as a supernatural phenomenon, so they took the meaning of "wood ghost".

"Gollum!"

After listening to Pang Xiaodou's words, Gazruwe couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and hurriedly asked with some concern, "So those human-faced spiders didn't dare to chase in?" So we ...... Could there be any problems? ”

"I don't know ......"

Pang Xiaodou shrugged helplessly, although there was still some distance from the "zombie locust", but this zombie fungus was transmitted through the air, and he had inhaled so much air without any protective measures before, and no one could guarantee that he had not inhaled the spores that were colorless and odorless and smaller than the haze particles.

However, there is one point, Pang Xiaodou is becoming more and more suspicious.

Gazruvi's presence in the crypt is not an occasional occurrence, but is likely a deliberate arrangement by the game system to provide the necessary assistance to the first player to enter the crypt.

Otherwise, why does this guy even bring two [gas masks]?

It's just that not everyone who meets him will be able to get help, first of all, you have to make sure that this guy is not dead when he encounters these people who need help......

"Let's go, it's useless to worry about it now, leave it to luck, let's go over and have a look first."

Through the transparent cover of the gas mask, seeing that Gazruvi's face was very ugly, Pang Xiaodou said a word that was not comforting at all, and then strode forward.

"Wait for me ......"

Gazruwe hurriedly followed with small steps.

……

On the canopy of this "zombie locust", at least hundreds of human-faced spiders are "hung".

In addition, there are dozens of shriveled corpses of human beings, which are under the influence of "zombie fungus", which did not directly turn into dry bones, otherwise there is really no way to continue to hang like this.

Rao is like this, some of the corpses are already crumbling at the moment, and there are indeed some fallen corpses on the ground.

Without exception, all of them have a "zombie fungus" breaking out of the "shell" on their heads, and the death is extremely terrifying.

Walking around the "Zombie Huai", Pang Xiaodou found a stone tablet in the back.

The stele was engraved with some strange symbols that Pang Xiaodou couldn't understand, and it was likely that they were ancient characters.

"Gazruvi, come here, can you read these symbols?"

There is a ready-made dictionary next to it, and Pang Xiaodou will naturally not be polite.

"It's coming, it's coming."

Gazluwei was looking up at the corpses under the "zombie locust" and sighed, and when he heard Pang Xiaodou's voice, he hurriedly came over, lying on the stone tablet and looking carefully with a wrinkled face.

"Whoever disturbs the sand king's sleep, death will spread its wings and descend on his head......"

Gazruvi read out word by word according to the content of the stone tablet, and when he read this, he suddenly jumped to the side in a panic, waved his hand and shouted repeatedly, "It's not good, this is a cursed stone tablet, and anyone who sees him will be tortured to death by a vicious curse!" ”

At this time, Pang Xiaodou noticed a strange phenomenon.

On the back of Gazruvi's waving hand, a black pattern appeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the pattern was exactly the same as his twin-tailed scorpion!

"Finally found a clue about the curse of the mystery......" Pang Xiaodou was overjoyed. (To be continued.) )
