Volume 1, The Lost Valley Blood Tree Chapter 62, Soul Snatcher Bridge, Yin and Yang Dao
Out of the stone cave, a chain bridge appeared in front of it, under the bridge is a bottomless abyss, and there is no end in sight under the flashlight. The bridge was covered with black vines, and large arm-thick iron chains stretched from the entrance to the other side, where two huge stone gates could be seen.
"It's the Tomb Gate!" The crowd rejoiced.
A foreigner with an eagle ditch nose rushed onto the chain bridge, and before he could run a few steps, the plank under his feet broke instantly, and the whole person fell directly towards the abyss below.
It was also considered his fate, and he grabbed a thick vine with one hand, and half of his body hung in the air.
"Pull me!" The man called for help to the person above.
His cuffs were sliced open by the remnants of the planks as he fell, revealing large patches of skin on his wrists. One by one, black worms emerged from the vines and climbed into his hands and into his cuffs.
The foreigner immediately changed color, and his arms trembled violently, "Ah!! Help me! ”
One person ran over and grabbed the foreigner's other arm with great effort, and the foreigner grabbed the thick vine with his other hand, letting the person who saved him pull for his life, and never let him go.
"You'd better let go!" The man who pulled him shouted.
"They're biting me! I ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, a black worm came out of his mouth, and then countless black worms swarmed out like a tumbling column of water.
Seeing the black worm gushing out, the person who pulled him hurriedly let go and stumbled straight back. The foreigner didn't even have time to shout a scream, and the whole person was wrapped by those black worms, and it didn't take long for him to turn into a human body, hanging under the bridge like a piece of bacon jerky.
His body still maintained the appearance of grasping upward, his face was distorted and terrifying, his jaw was huge, his mouth was incredibly open, everyone was dead, but his other hand was still grasping the thick vine.
"It's those black worms!"
"How so, didn't you say you don't have to worry about those bugs if you have the potion?" Ye Rongxing's eyes widened, and she stared at Chen Tao with a gloomy face. It was her person who died, and she naturally held back a wave of anger in her heart.
"Forehead......" Looking at Ye Rong, who changed her face faster than a monkey, Chen Tao said with an innocent face, "Didn't you see it all the way?" The bugs in the hole didn't do us anything. ”
"Moreover, this place is full of dangers, so you have to be careful in everything. That man was too reckless, even if there were no black worms, he would have died if he rushed up and hit other mechanisms. ”
Ye Rong didn't speak, she glared at Chen Tao fiercely, and Chen Tao, who was looking at it, couldn't help but feel stunned in her heart: "I shouldn't offend this aunt......
"I remember Little Brother Yang mentioned that there was a situation where even potions couldn't stop those black worms." Uncle Long spoke, "When I first came over, there were no black insects on the bridge. If my guess was correct, the man had just rushed onto the bridge and woke up the dormant bloodthirsty black worm. ”
"But it's strange to say, why did the planks on the bridge break off?" Haozi looked puzzled.
"Oh, what can I do now! The potion is useless, we can't get by! The tomb door is opposite, and the baby is inside, so let's find a way! Boss Zhang stared blankly at the tomb door in front of him.
"Do you think we don't want to go? The potion is useless, is it possible to burn it with fire? The mountain ghost looked at Boss Zhang unhappily and said.
"Fire?" Chen Tao's eyes lit up, this seemed to be a good solution.
"Boy, I advise you to give up that idea." Yan said lukewarmly: "Look around you, the fire hasn't burned yet, you will hang it yourself." These bugs aren't as simple as you think. ”
"And what can you do?" Chen Tao asked rhetorically.
He finally got here, and he didn't want to give up just like that.
Yan glanced at Chen Tao playfully, snorted coldly and fell to the ground in front of the bridge, tilted his head and looked at it for a long time, then got up and walked to the stone wall opposite the bridge, and stood upside down, staring at the bridge in the distance.
Everyone looked puzzled.
"What kind of wind is this red hair?"
"I warn you, stay away from me!" Chen Tao gritted his teeth and looked at Liang Shaokai who came to his side, and his heart was itching with hatred.
"Hey, don't be so careful, if you have something to say in the future, I'll cover you!" Liang Shaokai patted Chen Tao's back shoulder aggressively, and Chen Tao only felt a sharp pain in his back.
I! @#¥! @#! Lao Tzu is still injured in the back!
"I see!"
Yan's voice came, and it seemed that something had been discovered.
"Soul Snatcher Bridge, Yin and Yang Dao, hum, it seems that I have met the old ancestor!" Yan's heart moved secretly, but his mouth said,
"We were deceived"
"What do you mean?" The crowd was puzzled.
"The bridge is fake, the tomb gate is fake, and the real entrance is not here." Yan clapped his hands and said, "This is one of the Mo family's city defense mechanisms, build a fake bridge full of mechanisms to confuse the enemy, even if we can cross the bridge, we can't enter those two gates, it is full of traps and traps." ”
"So how do we get there?" Boss Zhang said.
"Hmph, Yin and Yang Dao...... The real entrance is below. ”
Looking at the bottomless abyss under the bridge, Chen Tao had a big head for a while. I finally climbed up, and now I have to climb down again?
"He should be right." Haozi said: "I seem to have heard grandpa mention such a city defense technique before. ”
"Oh...... The public loser, it's kind of interesting. Yan tilted his head and looked at Haozi, "Let's go, master, I'll take you down!" ”
Yan walked around the bridge for a few steps, stretched out his hand and pointed to a location, and soon someone set up the rope.
"Follow me, if you are gnawed by those insects, it's none of my business." Yan pulled the climbing rope, and after confirming that it was safe, he was the first to climb down.
Ye Rong and the others hesitated slightly, and Boss Zhang said when he saw this: "Peace of mind, beauty, Yan Zai won't lie to you!" After speaking, he also climbed down with Yan.
"Let's go too! Brother Ah Cheng, thank you for taking care of Lao Wang this time, after you go out, I will not treat you badly. Uncle Long nodded at Ah Cheng, and beckoned Chen Tao and the others to go down.
Chen Tao pulled the climbing rope, and just as he was about to take a step, he was shocked in his heart, and a strange feeling came up, and he suddenly looked back at the dark cave.
"What's wrong, Taozi?"
"Strange, how do you think someone is watching me......"
Haozi glanced at Chen Tao puzzled, and held a flashlight to the depths of the cave, except for those entangled black vines, there was nothing.
"Could it be a mistake?"
"Maybe......" Chen Tao shook his head, grabbed the climbing rope and climbed down.
With the experience of the previous few times, Chen Tao gradually grasped the trick of climbing. After hesitating, Ye Rong and the others finally climbed down together, and the group wore headlamps, paying attention to their surroundings and feet from time to time.
The rock walls here are steep and almost straight. There were a lot of black vines hanging down all around, and Chen Tao tried his best to avoid those things.
The vines here are different from the outside, and the ones outside the cave have cracked and rough skin, like tree bark. And here it is obviously better than those, the epidermis is round and plump, but there are some herbaceous stems, through the light can be faintly seen that there are black spots swimming inside, which are bloodthirsty black insects.
"No wonder those bugs survive in the vines here......"
After climbing down for more than ten meters, there are very few vines around me, and there is still an abyss with no end under my feet, and I don't know if the one outside is going to pass. Their ropes are very sufficient, adding up to dozens of meters, Chen Tao stepped on the rock with some difficulty, and the injury on his back gradually became a little sore, but it was much better than before.
"I don't know how long it's been down, it should be noon outside, I haven't seen the sun in a long time."
"Found it!"
Yan's voice came again, and Chen Tao looked down at where he was, only to see two bucket-thick iron chains nailed side by side to the rock wall, and the other end only led to the opposite mountain wall.
"I'll go, how did the ancients make such a thick iron chain!"
Everyone staggered from the rock wall to the iron chain, each ring was the thickness of an adult's big arm, very strong, although the surface has rusted, but so many people can step on it to fully support.
Chen Tao lay on the chain, his hands, feet and arms tightly clasped the buckle.
You can still see the chain bridge faintly above, and the bottomless abyss below, and the feeling of climbing this chain in mid-air is ...... Chen Tao felt that his fear of heights was about to come out.
Stimulating, too TND exciting!
From time to time there was a creaking sound of chains rubbing against each other in the darkness, and everyone walked along the chains. From the age of those ancient corpses, it can be inferred that this place has existed for at least 2,000 years.
Chen Tao couldn't imagine how the ancients, who were unproductive, would have pulled these two big chains between these two cliffs without the help of large machinery.
Thinking wildly in his mind, suddenly a strange feeling permeated his body again. Chen Tao turned his head suddenly, and the flashlight shone directly at the cliff mouth when he came down, and in a blur, there seemed to be a figure that flashed away.
"Is there really anyone following us......
