Chapter 133: The Thousand-Legged Centipede
Directly in front of us, there was a moat, and there was a stream of water in the river that could not be heard without approaching.
Directly above is a suspension bridge, and I don't need to elaborate on the rest.
The city wall is more than three feet high, and the rows of black figures on the city wall, the glazed tiles that reflect the bright light.
Even though I don't know what's in the city, that doesn't stop me from knowing the city.
There was only one thought in my mind at this time.
How much effort does it take to build such a magnificent underground imperial city?
If this is just the hand of a Taoist priest and a painter, I can't believe it.
Just when we were all in a daze, my sister spoke.
"With such a high wall and such a wide moat, how can we get there?"
"And, I feel a very uncomfortable feeling, danger should be around here......!"
Although I don't know if my sister feels that there is danger here, it is obvious that such an underground imperial city cannot be so quiet.
With the experience of the last time, I didn't rush to the moat in front of me, after all, it was already a dead end.
"I guess we should observe before we make a plan?"
I've already left the words, and as for how the two of them choose, I don't want to care.
I believed my sister's words, so I took my sister and left directly from the official road and casually got into a house.
But what I didn't expect was that there were several decomposing corpses in this mansion.
There is also a group of corpse turtles on top of the corpse, which are the same size as the beetle, and also look like a shell.
After seeing people, they will not take the initiative to attack like in film and television dramas, but will quickly scatter and flee.
I shone my flashlight on the corpse, dressed in modern attire, one of its faces badly decomposed, and one hand gone.
But through the rotting wound, it can be found that something should have been bitten or torn off.
Not far from the man's side was a backpack that was army green, and its contents were scattered all over the ground.
The most conspicuous thing is a compass, and a bundle of loose hemp rope, as well as ink fountains, pencils, notebooks, and the like.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but wonder, who is this person and what is he doing here?
My sister and I looked at each other for a moment, and then we walked around the corpse and came to the backpack.
I had guessed that this man was a lone wolf of the thief, but when I found the ink fountain on the ground, I denied the whole answer.
Grandpa said that there are only three kinds of people who use ink fountains to help people settle things in the Yin circle.
One is the Lu family, that is, the descendants of Lu Ban, although their descendants are not many in the Yin circle, but they are really famous.
The second is the people in the Gongsun family, and now the surname Gongsun is rare, but it was very famous in ancient times.
Especially during the Warring States Period, it was an existence that could compete with Lu Ban.
And the last one is my Coffin Mountain Taibao!
Corona and Gu You didn't know what to do outside, and they didn't follow up, but now they have almost reached their destination, even if they don't follow up, I don't care.
I asked my sister to help me with the flashlight, and I took out a white glove from my backpack and brought it on.
Then he carefully carried the army-green backpack and shook it.
There was a bang, and everything inside was scattered on the ground.
There are not many things in the backpack, except for the things on the ground before, which are steamed buns that have already dried up.
and a few copper coins, and finally a ruler broken in half.
When I saw the ruler, I was stunned.
This ruler is so similar to my coffin ruler, it can't be said to be similar, it should be said that it is exactly the same.
Could it be that this dead man was a coffin mountain Taibao?
I turned my head to the corpse, in fact, I only need to see if she has a coffin mountain order around her neck.
A piece of rhinoceros horn fell from my backpack, and although I didn't know what the Coffin Mountain Taipo used it for, I still managed to put it in my pocket.
Then I picked up the 'coffin ruler' that had been broken in two and re-entered the corpse.
"Sister, you help me take care of it, this dead may be my fellow brother, if he is also the Taibao of Coffin Mountain, I am responsible for helping him collect his body!"
I took the coffin and slowly moved to the corpse's neck.
There's nothing left of his neck, am I wrong?
I frowned and wanted to take a closer look, but the flashlight in my sister's hand fell off and fell directly to the ground.
"What's wrong with you, sister!"
The flashlight fell on the other hand of the corpse, his hand was holding something tightly, and when I tried to break this person's hand, I found that my sister's body was shaking like chaff.
"Sister, are you okay?"
I was about to stand up as I spoke, but my sister still trembled and said, "You, you, don't, don't move......!" ”
The more she said that to me, the more curious I became.
But my sister's words are obviously not alarmist, if I accidentally move around and cause any accident to my sister, then I will really become a sinner.
But not moving, does not mean not moving, I slowly and gently turn my head.
Halfway through my head, I could already see that something was wrong.
The creepy, hairy countdown sound was like a thousand feet crawling on paper.
Sure enough, when I turned my body half to the side and turned my head around, I could finally understand why my sister was shaking so much.
If I were an ordinary woman, I would have died of heart palpitations on the spot when I saw this thing.
A pair of red eyes the size of apples, two tentacles like long whips, and a large mouth like a vice.
I have no doubt that such a big mouth can crush anything casually.
The most important thing is the dense tentacles, and at this time the head is slightly raised, staring at a pair of red lanterns and looking at us.
It was a gigantic centipede, half of its body in the house behind it, now with only its head exposed.
It suddenly occurred to me that when I was in the underground Marquis Kingdom, it was such a scene, and then it attracted a dense number of small snakes.
No way?
The cold sweat on my forehead kept pouring down, and I didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Lao Tzu knew that going to the tomb could not be so smooth sailing.
There has been nothing along the way, and the special mother has been waiting for us here for a long time!
At this time, my mind was constantly running, trying to find a way to escape, but in the face of such a behemoth, I felt like a mayfly shaking a tree.
I didn't even dare to reach for the flashlight, but if I continued to stalemate like this, I would definitely be looking for death.
Just when I didn't know what to do, there was a loud noise behind me, and then Gu You broke in directly.
"Oh no, there's a thousand-footed ...... outside!"
"Sister, get down ......!"
