Chapter Seventy-Four: The Little Red Snake

The change happened so suddenly, and before I could fully recover from the shock that my grandfather was dead, the red-haired monster committed suicide.

It was our only hope of getting out of this hellish place.

But......

Moreover, the current situation is even worse than we expected, and the passage we have entered has been silently blocked by the other red-haired monsters, and there is no way out.

Lin Miao is right, now we are trapped in a sealed space, not to mention that there is no food. According to Yan Xiaoying's estimate, the oxygen here can only supply us for three hours.

After three hours, we will all be suffocated to death due to lack of oxygen, and at the last moment of life, the red-haired monster will appear.

By that time, we would have no power to resist and let them open our heads with their sharp claws and suck the marrow of our brains.

It's chilling to think about.

"What now?" At this point, I had no idea at all.

"Wait!"

Lin Miao only had one word popping out of her mouth, then crossed her knees and began to meditate and breathe.

"This guy...... What a surprise! ”

I sighed helplessly.

"He is naturally optimistic, the Gu King who was originally raised in his body is dead, although I don't know what method he has used to support him until now, but I think that in the end, he will definitely not be able to get rid of his bad luck. Sooner or later, for him, it was only a matter of time. ”

Yan Xiaoying also sat down cross-legged, glanced at Lin Miao, and said faintly.

"You're optimistic too!" I looked at Yan Xiaoying and said.

"I know that I will die, what's the use of being nervous and anxious? I don't want to die, but now there's no other way. Besides, I won't be lonely on the Huangquan Road, that's what you told me before. ”

I smiled wryly, "But I don't want to die now." ”

After a pause, I continued: "I'm not afraid of death, but I can't take the antidote out to save Lao Fei when I die, I'm worried about him." ”

"I'm afraid of death, so decent." Yan Xiaoying covered her mouth and chuckled: "You are still the same as when you were a child, you have to die to save face and suffer crimes!" ”

I spread my hands and said helplessly: "There is no way, who in the world is not afraid of death?" When you die, you become a handful of loess, and there is nothing. Besides, I finally went to the world once, and finally got married and started a family, and I didn't even kiss my wife's mouth, so I was really unwilling to die like this. ”

Yan Xiaoying opened her mouth wide and said a little speechlessly: "Until now, the first thing you thought of was this, and I really obeyed you." ”

"But...... Aren't you and the mountain god Niangniang already in a cave room? "Having said that, Yan Xiaoying is still very curious about the matter between me and the mountain god Niangniang.

"It's really a handful of bitter tears, a handful of tears!"

I picked up the jade pendant hanging around my neck, looked at the appearance of Jingmei on the pendant, sighed and said quietly: "The cave room is a candle night, such a beautiful day, but the heavens are not beautiful, she flew into the sky and crossed the catastrophe." She and I haven't seen her since. ”

"The marriage of the yin spirit and a mortal is originally a matter against the avenue, the mountain god Niangniang has a special status, but after all, she has not really succeeded to the position of the mountain god, even if she becomes the real mountain god, she should not be with you, let alone worship heaven and earth in front of the world."

Yan Xiaoying said: "I don't understand, she could have secretly married you in private, why is there such a big fanfare? What's more, her actions like that are undoubtedly a blatant call for heaven and earth, and she doesn't take the rules of heaven and earth into account. This kind of thing...... It could have been avoided. ”

"I don't know what she thinks, but she's my wife, and whatever she does, I'll support her. It's just that...... Is there really such an ethereal thing as the way of heaven and the rules of heaven and earth in this world? ”

"I don't know, but I know one thing very well, at the so-called March Three Heavens Discourse Conference, your marriage with the mountain god Niangniang will definitely be put on the surface. Human ethics and morality, teach the theory of punishing the heart, and when the time comes, you and the mountain god Niangniang will become the object of verbal criticism by the so-called righteous people. ”

"Why? I don't understand, Lu Ji, the little heavenly master of the Heavenly Master's Mansion before, also asked the mountain god Niangniang to kiss, why did I become a violation of human ethics when I was with her, but Lu Ji could justifiably propose to the mountain god Niangniang? Not to be reprimanded by the world? ”

"Because you are just an ordinary person who does not know the truth, and the mountain god Niangniang, she and the three masters of the Daomen, the eighteen mountain gods killed the evil dragon, her status is transcendent, not what you can imagine. Whether it's out of jealousy or otherwise, they won't let you stay together. Yan Xiaoying explained.

I frowned and said, "Are the so-called decent people just a group of nosy people?" ”

"Of course not, Heavenly Mountain Shuanglong Cave has a big secret, and their real purpose is just this. And your marriage with the mountain god Niangniang is just the beginning of this matter, even if there is no such thing, they will find a way to enter the Shuanglong Cave to investigate thoroughly. ”

"But...... It's useless to say anything now, because you and I are going to die in this place, and you can't see those disgusting faces. Yan Xiaoying said quietly.

"Take one step at a time, until the last moment, I will not accept my fate." I shook my head.

"Actually, you shouldn't have come here, do you feel willing to lose your life in order to save Lao Fei?"

I was stunned, I didn't understand why Yan Xiaoying said this, and frowned: "This is not unwilling or unwilling, whether it is you or Lao Fei, we all have a lifelong friendship." I don't regret coming here, and if it were you who got the ghost oil, I'd come to find an antidote. ”

Yan Xiaoying said with a smile on her face, "I'm very happy that you can say that. ”

I was puzzled: "You're still happy?" ”

"Something's coming!"

Just as Yan Xiaoying and I were talking to relieve the tense and depressing atmosphere, Lin Miao, who was meditating with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes and said in a cold voice.

He didn't look at us, he looked in a certain direction.

That place was a transparent meteorite, and after a while, we saw strange figures swimming from the depths of the meteorite, getting closer and closer.

"It's not good, it's a swarm of wireworms!"

Yan Xiaoying exclaimed, "It must be those red-haired monsters who can't hold back and drive the insect swarm here, wanting to kill us quickly!" ”

The red-haired monster is afraid of being caught by us, but it feeds on the nematodes, and it still does its job of driving them away.

As we spoke, the swarm of insects had swam closer, and there were no less than tens of millions of them in a dense crowd, and more than a dozen of them had already swam to our feet, about to break through the wall.

To be honest, I think the swarm of wireworms is much scarier than the red-haired monsters.

Seeing the nematode come out, I raised my whip and smashed it, and Lin Miao also took out a scimitar and slashed, killing or hacking the nematode that came out of the ground.

But the number of swarms is too many, too many to count, and we are doing this just to fight the trapped beasts.

Seeing the strange wireworms coming out of the inside of the meteorite wall and swinging their bodies wildly on the ground, I couldn't help but feel a tingle in my scalp.

This kind of thing is terrible.

There were wireworms all around, and we didn't even have a chance to escape.

The three of them were back to back, close together, and seeing the nematode approaching, I gritted my teeth and snatched the scimitar from Lin Miao's hand and cut a wound on my arm.

Blood poured in from the wound, and I flicked my arm frantically, blood spilling in all directions.

The wireworms that had been splashed with my blood writhed even more, but after a while they were silent, and the rest of the wireworms did not dare to approach, and all of them burrowed into the meteoric wall.

The nematodes in the meteorite wall are also far away.

It seems that this kind of thing has a natural restraint for the nematode, and I turned pale and sprinkled the place where we were standing with blood on my injured arm.

When Yan Xiaoying saw me doing this, she grabbed my arm and said bitterly: "What's the use of you doing this? We're all going to die sooner or later. ”

"That's not a human life, if you can hold on for a while, it's a while!" I said.

Yan Xiaoying shook her head, tore her clothes, and couldn't help but say that she wanted to bandage my wounds.

With so much blood shed, coupled with the hunger in my belly, my body was even weaker than that of Yan Xiaoying, and I was powerless to struggle at this time.

"Be careful, it's coming."

At this time, Lin Miao suddenly said in a deep voice.

Yan Xiaoying and I were stunned for a moment, and then we saw that in the transparent meteorite, there was a monster in the swarm of nematodes that was different from other nematodes.

Compared with other wireworms, its size is not stout, but it appears petite, only the thickness of a thumb, but the whole body is blood-red, but it is particularly eye-catching.

The most important thing is that it does not look like other nematodes, which do not have mouths and eyes, at least with the naked eye.

But the blood-red nematode in front of it, it has a mouth, not only a mouth but also eyes, except for a longer body, it is no different from the small snake that has just broken out of its shell.

Even the surface of its body is covered with tiny scales.

When it appeared, it went straight through the meteorite wall and swam like a snake on the ground, not afraid of the blood I spilled on the ground at all. And he also stretched out his scarlet tongue to lick and suck blood, as if he had encountered something delicious.

Hiss! Hiss!

As it licks and sucks blood, it makes a snake-like spitting sound.

"This is not a nematode at all, but a small snake, and looking at the bright colors of its body, it must contain poison!"

The old man once told me that in general, the brighter the color of a poison, the more toxic it is.

There is a deadly poisonous snake on Paradise Mountain, commonly known as 'Passing Peak', which is actually a highly venomous-eyed snake king species.

That poisonous snake has a triangular head and is as black as ink, and even if a large buffalo is bitten by it, it will fall to the ground and die in less than ten minutes, let alone a human.

The bright red snake in front of him was small, but no one dared to underestimate it.

When we saw it appear, we all stepped back and avoided it far away.

Perhaps frightened by me, or forced by the might of the little red snake, although we withdrew from the blood-covered range, the swarm of wireworms did not rush up, but avoided it from afar.

Looking around, the surrounding meteorites were littered with nematodes, just like what we had seen on the relief......
