Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Fire Centipede

The man behind the hole was almost hidden in the darkness, and under the flickering firelight of the white headlamp, he could only see half of his little red face with blood hanging on it.

"Ah Jin?" I thought the figure was a bit like Ah Jin, so I tentatively called her by name.

The figure suddenly trembled when he heard my voice, and there was a faint cry in his tone, "Wu Yan......"

It's really Ah Jin!

I choked in my throat and rushed to the hole like I was running for my life, and grabbed Ah Jin's hand tightly, "How is it!" Hurt no! Whose blood is on the face? Speak! ”

Ah Jin cried and shook his head, "Ah Jin doesn't hurt...... It doesn't hurt ......."

"Climb out, I'll take you out!" After saying that, I took a step back, and at the same time estimated whether the hole was enough for Ah Jin to climb out.

But this hole is only a little bigger than a basketball, I can't even stuff my head into it, even if Ah Jin's figure is slim, it is absolutely impossible to climb out!

"Ah Jin, stand back!" I hurriedly turned around and greeted Zhong Yi, "Come on, third child, help me kick the door open, she is my friend!" ”

Zhong Yi moved his ankle and walked over.

But at this time, Ah Jin beside me suddenly screamed "ah", and then it was as if something grabbed his hair, and he was dragged into the darkness all of a sudden!

"Ah Kam !!" I screamed her name at the mouth of the cave.

Zhong Yi shouted "dodge" and then rushed over and flew up with a kick, which kicked the stone gate less than three meters away from me, shaking my head and nauseating.

Zhong Yi directly kicked and broke the rotten stone door that was still breathing, and the broken stones began to fall like rain, and Zhong Yi quickly pulled me to the side.

The cracks on the stone gate spread rapidly, and the large and small rubbles were accompanied by the endless "crackling" that smashed the smoke and dust all over the ground.

A rock the size of a human head hit the ground and rolled to my feet, and I flicked with my toes, only to see a lump of flesh-red in the fractured section.

This stone is like a dark gray shell, a sandwich biscuit with a dark red heart, and the outer layer is wrapped in a stone skin nearly ten centimeters thick, but inside is the kind of muscle tissue interlaced with dark purple blood vessels and tendons.

Zhong Yi raised a kick and kicked the stone directly against the opposite wall, knocking it into a lump of meat sauce, "This is the Gu Seed Gate, also known as the separation of the world, according to legend, it was often used to imprison foreign beasts in ancient times, and since it is considered a living body, it can be used to apply some spells to stop the invaders." ”

After that, the stone chamber was already full of smoke and dust like a fire.

I couldn't wait for a second, I covered my mouth and nose and rushed into the stone gate by stepping over the disgusting gravel all over the ground, and Zhong Yi and Yan Feitang also ran in after me.

"Ah Kam !!"

It was pitch black in front of me, and my voice was constantly echoing in this unknown space.

Zhong Yi took out a flashlight from his waist and adjusted the aperture wider, and Yan Feitang also took a few steps forward with a white headlamp held high.

I sniffed it lightly, and there was a faint, at the same time sweet fishy smell in the air.

Zhong Yi walked to the wall on the right and looked carefully, I wanted to take the white head lamp in Yan Feitang's hand and continue to walk inside, because Ah Jin had just been dragged away for dozens of seconds, and it shouldn't be too far away from us now.

So I reached out to get the white headlamp, but Yan Feitang took a step back and dodged, "What are you doing?" You want to go in on your own? ”

"Give it to me! She's not going to be too far away! ”

Yan Feitang took a few steps away from me and shook his head firmly, "Don't send it to death, do you know where this is?" ”

I just wanted to go back to her, when Zhong Yi, who was not far away, strode up to me and patted me on the shoulder, "Little Senior Brother, this is the Burial Gu Hall." ”

"I know!"

I think Zhong Yi's words are a bit inexplicable, I have been staying for several hours since I came down from the passage in the wooden house, how can I not know where I am.

Zhong Yi stared into my eyes and shook his head, "Now the stone room we are in is called the Burial Gu Hall, everything outside, whether it is the passage or the waterhole, they have their own names, but no one remembers them, and no one cares about those names. ”

I was a little puzzled, "If they all have names, why doesn't anyone remember them?" ”

"Because compared to here, everything before doesn't matter, no matter how dangerous. That's why people used the word Funeral Gu Hall to replace everything. ”

I know what he means, Zhong Yi just wants to tell me that such a large underground building is obviously only this room called the Burial Gu Hall, but people are willing to use these three words to refer to everything, just to set off the danger of this room.

"I know! But I don't want to waste time! ”

Before I finished speaking, Zhong Yi quickly reached out and took the white head lamp in Yan Feitang's hand, and then he threw it without looking back, and the white head lamp smashed the wall that Zhong Yi had checked before, and the fire splashed for a while.

Yan Feitang just wanted to open his mouth to ask what was going on, when the flames on the wall jumped, and a slender fire snake actually meandered along the wall, extending several meters in an instant.

Zhong Yi pointed to the fire snake and said, "There are many gaps in the wall embedded with ointment, which should be used for lighting." ”

The flame of kung fu had already stretched out for more than ten meters, and the three of us stood quietly in place watching the line of fire advance, turn, circle, and rise.

The fire snake slashed and lit the torches nailed to the wall, and the huge stone chamber lit up little by little.

We waited for almost five minutes before the flames finally hovered to the top of the stone, eventually igniting a scorching and pulsing fresco above our heads.

The painting depicts a huge centipede with a single horn on its head.

The centipede is coiled, and its tail goes around fifteen times as the starting point of the outer ring.

The centipede's head is in the center of its body, and the two flame tentacles on its head are burning and beating, and they are also lifelike from a distance, as if they will pounce on us at any moment.

The flames set the painting on fire, and the whole room became much hotter.

However, this stone chamber is so large that it is estimated that it must be the size of two football fields, so the firelight on the walls and ceiling does not completely illuminate the middle of the stone chamber.

So at this moment, it was still pitch black in the middle of the stone room, and I could only vaguely see something that seemed to be hanging in mid-air.

"What's that black thing?" Yan Feitang asked.

Suddenly, a drop of burning liquid fell from the mouth of the centipede overhead, and we watched as the drop of fire landed precisely on the huge black shadow in the center of the stone chamber.

"Boom-"

A burst of fire resounded through the world!
