Volume 2 Southern Xinjiang Different Mounds Chapter 61 Water Vapor

"What is a ghost gnawing corpse?" Xu Yunshu asked.

"I've only heard ghosts gnaw mud!" The jar also said.

"The so-called ghost gnawing corpse refers to this kind of situation where zombies cannibalize each other!" I explained, "I also said before that the corpse of the child and mother is made by absorbing the qi of resentment, but even if it is a place where the qi of resentment gathers, it will take at least a few decades for the corpse to be first formed, but it will take hundreds of years to wait for the corpse to be completely completed. Once the corpse is formed, if you want to continue to grow, you have to continue to absorb the resentment qi, but this is a long process, and it still takes a very long time...... And zombies eating each other is a shortcut that can gather a large amount of resentment in a very short period of time......"

"That's why this corpse is so horrible?"

"Yes, it's just ......"

"Just what?" Xu Yunshu asked.

"As you know, zombies are only interested in the flesh and blood of living creatures, and in order for them to devour their own kind, they must also use spells, and this mysterious spell is called corpse devouring......"

"You mean, the Witch Sect Master performed corpse devouring on these four corpses?" Xu Yunshu asked.

"I don't think it's surprising that the above witch sect master's abilities are proficient in corpse devouring techniques, right?"

While I was chatting privately with Tanzi and Xu Yunshu, Park Yinan and Ergou were already exploring the new "tomb" we had entered. In fact, this is not a burial chamber, but an underground cave, which can be seen from the uneven ground under your feet and the occasional protruding stalactites.

A karst cave suddenly appeared in the tomb, which is indeed a little abrupt, but after all, this is Qiannan, and the karst cave can be said to be everywhere, which can be said to be reasonable, but there will be a naturally formed underground karst cave in the middle of the tomb of the Shangwu sect master, it seems that it should be deliberately arranged in this way, otherwise if the cave is found when the tomb is built, you can completely abandon this place and choose another place to build.

Originally, the cave was very silent when we first entered, and there was no sound except for us. Now, the cave, which has been dormant for hundreds of years, welcomes its first visitors. However, soon after the arrival of this group of visitors, some strange sounds began to be heard in the cave, as if in response to our arrival......

"What's the sound in this, how is it like a pressure cooker deflating?" Jar asked.

"You want to know, won't it be clear when you go in a while?" I replied.

After a short pause, I got up from the ground and began to look at the cave. The cave hall is not small, but there is only a road about six or seven meters wide under our feet that stretches into the depths of the cave, and there are deep ditches on both sides, and the stalactites below stand on the ground like an awl, which looks like a sharp sword in our eyes. Once a person falls, it will be the end of ten thousand swords piercing, and he will definitely die.

Now behind us is a closed stone gate, and outside the stone gate is guarded by the corpses of the son and mother, so we have only one way to go.

Park Yinan and a few people opened the way in front with guns, and the rest of the people cautiously followed behind them, after a series of events, now this team is a frightened bird, in this dark environment, any noise can make us alert for a long time.

The deeper we got, the closer we got to the "sneering" sound. We walked along the winding "road" under our feet for about half an hour, and finally approached the exit of the cave. However, before the exit, there was a road of about 50 meters, which was even more potholed and bumpy, and the sound of "snorting" was transmitted from here.

With a loud bang, a white gas pierced the ground and rose into the sky, spraying five or six meters high, startling all of us.

"So this voice is coming from here!" Xu Yunshu said with emotion.

"What is this spewing out of the ground? Is it water vapor? Wang Yuesheng asked curiously.

"This is an underground cave, and there is nothing strange about water vapor, it's just ......" Ma Xiwen paused and continued, "It's just that this is spewing out from the ground...... It seems that the pressure on this underground is still quite large! ”

"Snort~" "Snort~" Not far ahead, two more streams of water vapor spewed out of the ground like a fountain, and even sprayed the stones that were originally pressed on it to a height of several meters. The stone fell to the ground with a bang, and several more water vapor drilled out, and the height was even higher than before. Although the water vapor looks amazing, it is not in a state of eruption all the time, but after a few seconds, it will disappear and return to its previous calm.

When we saw the vapour, everyone stopped. Before figuring out the situation, stepping into it rashly will only bring danger, and everyone is like a mirror in their hearts.

Situ Feng observed for a while before he spoke, "Do you feel something strange? When we first entered this cave, we didn't seem to hear the sound of the water vapor spewing out, as if everything appeared after entering......"

"That's right!" Liu Jinlong echoed, "When we first came in, the cave was so quiet that we could hear even a needle falling on the ground clearly, but not long after we came in, we heard the sound of water vapor. ”

"You mean to say...... Is this water vapor caused by our arrival? Park Yifan asked. And Ma Xiwen's question was even more in-depth: "Do you think that this water vapor is also a kind of mechanism arranged by the Shangwu Sect Master?" ”

Situ Feng had to go back and forth around the neighborhood a few times and said, "I don't know if it was arranged by the Upper Witch Sect Master, but I guess it shouldn't be!" This water vapor comes from the ground, and the pressure is really not small, and the coverage is also very large, which is definitely not something that can be done by manpower. ”

"It's good if it's not a mechanism! It's good that it's not a trap! Zhang Jiuxi patted his chest and said, it seems that he has lingering feelings about the mechanism in this tomb.

Situ Feng glanced at Zhang Jiuxi and said, "I only said that this was not artificially arranged, but I didn't say that this was not an organ!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Jiuxi was stunned for a moment, and asked Situ Feng rhetorically.

What Mr. Szeto meant was that it was indeed a mechanism, but it was not made by man, but a masterpiece of nature...... Am I right, Mr. Szeto? Ma Xiwen looked at Situ Feng and said.

"Yes, that's what it means!" "Judging from the current situation, the pressure in the ground here is very great, and if it is shaken, it may erupt water vapor at any time. As you can see, this water vapor can spray to a height of five or six meters, and if it hits a person, it will definitely hurt. If it's hot steam, it's even worse! ”

"It shouldn't be steam! If it had been steam, we would have been in a warm mist long ago. But if you look at it, there's nothing, just a little dampness on the ground. I interjected. Situ Feng didn't reply, just nodded in agreement.

"So it seems that the Upper Witch Sect Master deliberately chose this cave as an integral part of his tomb?" Xu Yunshu said, "With such a natural jet cannon as a barrier, it can also increase some security." ”
