176.Doubts about Monuments (2)

The direction of this tunnel is very strange, sometimes before and after, sometimes left and sometimes right, so that Bai Xiaoqiu can no longer distinguish the location and direction of several people, I don't know if he is now underground or in the mountain, he can only determine that the current position should be some distance from the ground.

As everyone walked farther and farther, there were gradually more traces of ancient civilization on the walls of the tunnel - the broken stone ridge seemed to be a platform for lighting, and the faintly visible patterns on the surface of the wall seemed to be murals or reliefs, and even the excavation style of the entire tunnel was slightly different from before, but unfortunately this qiē became undetectable under the washing of the years, and the relief murals on the wall were peeled off to the point that there was no one left, and it was impossible to see what the remaining patterns were.

After another ten minutes, a fork in the road appeared in front of several people, and a total of five forks from left to right were lined up, and it was dark to know where they led.

There were several other teams of hunters who followed Bai Xiaoqiu and them into the cave, and when they saw the fork in the road in front of them, they all looked unhurried, so they chose a passage at random and walked in.

"What should we do, which way shall we go?" Everyone looked at Shi Manqian.

Shi Manqian shrugged his shoulders and said: "The intelligence shows that the location of each fork in the road is similar, let's just choose one." ”

Rocky jumped out when he heard this: "I'm the best at choosing a way or something!" After he finished speaking, he threw up the sign in his hand, and when the sign fell to the ground, he raised his paw and pointed in the direction of the brand, and meowed.

That's the second fork in the left hand, and it's the one that has just been chosen the least.

Bai Xiaoqiu nodded and said: "It's just so good that what we are going to do next is not easy for others to see, since God has pointed out this way, then let's choose the road with the least number of people." ”

――――――――――――――――――

Although a few people chose the least crowded fork in the road, as everyone gradually went deeper, there were inevitably many "modern" things on the ground, such as Xiao Taozi accidentally stepped on a watermelon peel just now and sat on the ground. Now he is being carried on his back by the tsundere Rocky. Another example is that there is a group of adventurers in the fork in the road who are ping-pong on the wall and don't know what they are chiseling, and after seeing Bai Xiaoqiu and his party, they are all nervous, and they don't withdraw their weapons until they are far away.

Bai Xiaoqiu: The purpose of their visit this time is very clear. One is to find the ancient divine soldiers, and the other is to find the ghosts released by the shepherds. Naturally, I don't waste time looking at what treasures are on the walls. They hurried all the way, and soon came to the end of this fork in the road, when suddenly there was a bright light in front of them, and a small stone house appeared.

When they walked through the door, they found that the stone house was a mess, full of rubbish such as food scraps, broken heads, or used stones. The stone platforms, shelves, walls and floors of the house were churned to a mess, and it was clear that the first "tourists" to come to the stone house had scavenged all the items they might have taken with them. Completely cut off the idea of treasure hunting for latecomers

When Bai Xiaoqiu and the others entered the house, there were already four explorers sitting on the ground in the house, they were drinking wine and nibbling on dry food, and when they saw Bai Xiaoqiu, they also glanced at them and didn't say anything, obviously using this room as a temporary lounge.

Bai Xiaoqiu looked around carefully, turned back to his teammates and asked, "Why don't we rest here for a while?" ”

Several of them are high-ranking hunters, so naturally they will not feel tired after walking for a while, Bai Xiaoqiu's words are mainly to Luo Qi, its body is not as good as everyone, and it has been carrying the little peach on its back for a long time, Bai Xiaoqiu is a little worried that its body will not be able to keep up.

But Rocky waved his little paw calmly, holding the sign and looking full of vitality: "It's okay meow~ We're not tired at all!" ~”

Bai Xiaoqiu could see that it was not reckless. But he still put down the package and said, "Let's take a rest first, just enough to chat with the big brothers next to us." ”

The so-called chatting is actually a set of information with the adventurers next to you. This kind of action, which requires a high charisma value to be effective, naturally depends on Shi Manqian.

It's a pity that Shi Manqian's beauty comparable to the level of genetic mutation in the other world did not play any role at this time, and the few adventurers who were sitting on the ground and eating dry food were pestered by Shi Manqian for a long time, instead of revealing their information, they were extremely impatient, frowning, stuffing the dry food into their mouths in two mouthfuls, getting up and preparing to leave.

But just as those people stood up, a noisy sound of "buzzing" was suddenly heard in the ears of everyone present.

The noise was not loud at first, but it intensified in a matter of seconds, like a sprinkler truck coming from far and near, causing goosebumps all over the body.

"Not good! It's a queen bug!! The faces of the explorers suddenly turned very ugly. Almost hurriedly took out his weapon, and looked at Bai Xiaoqiu with a solemn face in the direction where they came.

The queen bug is not uncommon. Outside, the forest is almost everywhere and resembles a wasp in appearance. However, it is larger, and it usually appears in groups, but the number of each appearance is mostly not more than ten, so it is not a problem to solve. Because of this, Bai Xiaoqiu felt a little strange when he saw that the group of people looked so nervous that their faces turned white, even if they were not strong, they would not be scared like this by a few wasps, and they looked at them behind them It was a hairy meaning, that road was the way they came, even if there was really a monster, it should have been blocked from here, right?

Bai Xiaoqiu's question was quickly explained. When the buzzing sound came to everyone's side, Bai Xiaoqiu saw a large black swarm of bees rushing from the road behind them, and the buzzing sound of hundreds of queen insects made everyone's head big.

The 'hundreds' here is not an exaggerated adjective, because the influx of this large number of queen bees almost filled the entire passage, let alone hundreds, Bai Xiaoqiu even doubted that there were thousands of these guys combined. (To be continued)
