Chapter 236: Beetles
The force of his stab was so great that just when I thought my palm was about to be pierced, he actually stuck the bronze monster face in my hand and pulled his hand back.
My face was just over a foot away from the bronze monster face, and I could see it even more clearly at this time, the back of this thing was a bug, but I don't know why, the back armor was almost the same as bronze.
The tip of the severed finger plunged into the bronze beetle's abdomen, and immediately a puddle of blue liquid oozed out, and this guy's blood was not red, and I was horrified, and annoyed at the behavior of this bastard. Before I could react, a splash of blue blood splashed on my face.
I turned my head and tried to curse, but when I saw the face of the severed finger, I immediately realized that there was something strange about it. Almost instantly, I turned my face to the bronze lump on the ground again.
Before I could comprehend what I was seeing, I heard the severed finger shout, "Run." ”
I had already gotten rid of the problem of watching the excitement beforehand, and I didn't care why the severed finger was so panicked, glanced at the bronze lump underground, and ran to the trestle where Master Ma was placed.
At the last glance, I saw that the bronze lump had cracked countless cracks, which was not good. But as soon as I thought about the bronze beetle, I guessed what it was. If this bronze lump is really alive, and it will appear behind me inexplicably, it may have come by itself.
Those bronze beetles will be attached to each other one by one, and there must be hooks on their arthropod feet, which are linked to each other and the armor, and they can all form a human form, this guy is not a mortal thing, to borrow the words of Master Ma, the hat of the evil thing is buckled.
I ran all the way forward, and the severed finger probably didn't run in the same direction as me, and I listened to the voice, and he probably had reached the other end of the trestle.
The sound behind me began to be noisy, the sound that I was all too familiar with, it was the sound of "squeak, squeak" of the wooden board under pressure, I couldn't hold back for a moment, looked back, and then I didn't have any thoughts of looking back.
Behind me, the humanoid bronze mound had completely spread out, and the floor, walls, and even ceilings of the corridor were densely packed with bronze beetles, which were so fast that they seemed to have caught up with me half the way.
Two steps later, I rushed into the trestle, but the bitter thing is that there is no door between the trestle and the corridor, the two passages are connected to each other, I didn't have time to think about it at all, I grabbed Master Ma's hands and feet with both hands, put him directly on his back, and ran out of the trestle.
As soon as the person went out, I threw Master Ma to the ground, the steps here are not wide, so I watched Master Ma roll down the steps for three or four meters, but fortunately finally stopped at the edge of the steps, where the ground is less than seven or eight meters, and if he falls, Master Ma estimates that he will not have half a life.
I immediately closed the door panel, this one was open inward, the wooden door of the ancient building, there was no obvious handle on the outside, and it took me some trouble to close the door panel. Almost at the same time, the door panel clattered several times, but it didn't take long for the arthropod tentacles of the bronze beetles to pierce the cloth covering the window.
I tried my best to dodge, these arthropod tentacles were not much different from the tip of the iron bayonet, the strength was greater than the other, I just felt in my hand, there were already a lot of bronze beetles gathered behind the door panel, in my estimation, maybe all the bronze beetles in that place followed me.
I have some doubts now, these bronze beetles will suddenly be angry, could it be caused by him not stopping to stab the big bronze lump at that time with a dagger? Now he's fine, he ran first, and the key is not in the same direction as me.
I glanced behind me, and there were countless dense eaves of wooden buildings. After thinking about it, I let it go, but fortunately those beasts couldn't open the door, and they kept pushing the door out, but it couldn't be opened for a long time.
I rushed down the stairs, picked up Master Ma, who was half hanging in the air, and ran down the stairs with a puff of smoke. Along the way, I kept paying attention to the trestle on the opposite side, there was no figure walking on the basis of the trestle, and the guy with the severed finger was naturally faster than me, and the person was gone.
I climbed over the low wall with Master Ma on my back, and I heard the sound of a wooden board breaking in the air not far behind me, and I didn't have to look back to know that the wooden door of the trestle could no longer stop the bronze beetle.
A large jingling sound sounded more than ten meters behind me for a while, those insects are all bronze armor, this is definitely not natural growth, if it is, then there is no need to have a smelting process, just raise beetles in large quantities.
Master Ma is a burden, I didn't give him too good treatment, and threw him directly over the low wall, and this grandson still hummed and chirped. When I looked over it, I realized that he was still not awake, but only sobbing sounds.
I quickly rushed to the bottom of the corridor and picked up the broken umbrella rope on the ground. was about to continue running away with Master Ma on his back, but suddenly another question came to mind.
I turned around and crawled behind the low wall, I don't know where the horror is, but I've seen the power of arthropod tentacles. After thinking about it for a while, I wanted to catch one first, and then I would study what this thing was.
Those bronze beetles rushed down the steps, these things had no brains, and they turned over when they rushed down, and they were trying to turn forward one by one. But many others noticed that I was coming back and rushed towards me again.
Several times, I was annoyed by the bugs. Finally, let me find an opportunity to use the paracord sleeve that had been circled to directly set out a white-bellied one.
I didn't want to catch it, this guy looks really weird, even if it's ugly, the key is that he looks evil, and it's more difficult to see than a grimace. I carried the bronze beetle as if I had been tied up and climbed over the low wall.
These things are short, the wall is only one meter, but there is no way to do these things, I squatted on the wall, my heart was much more stable, and I didn't have to run.
I was about to give them some rain, but before I could undo my wetsuit, I saw something that gave me a creepy look.
Those insects have bronze attached to their backs, which is naturally extremely hard, but I really didn't expect that these things are also surprisingly good. One by one, he turned around a few times, and then slammed into the low wall. The insect propped up the front half of its body with its arthropod tentacles, opened its mouth wide, and began to gnaw on the bricks under the base of the wall.
I have tried those bricks, and today's red bricks are about the same, and there are no water-absorbing voids on the surface, this is not a bad quality, but the quality is very good, the manufacturing industry of the Qin Dynasty has been very developed, this kind of brick is completely solid rock, even stronger than the rock. I saw that there were inscriptions on the bricks, and I couldn't recognize the small seal, but I also knew that it was a special number of time and place plus processing workers, and this system was a legal system in the Qin Dynasty.
I saw them gnawing on bricks, but they didn't have any fears. But when I heard the sound of the bricks breaking, I immediately jumped off the low wall, these things are amazing, those bluestone bricks that can't be broken when picked up and broken, can be bitten by them with their teeth in a few minutes. I watched this stance for five minutes at most, and the low wall of less than a foot had to be bitten through by them.
This little time is not short, it is enough for me to pull Master Ma and run. Actually, I don't think it's anything to say these things are scary. Each one is quite fast, but if I were to run alone, none of them would be able to catch up. But now it's different, one or two are naturally fine, a large area only needs more than fifteen, if they still have a little bit of intelligence, then I will definitely have to surround them to death.
"Fuck you don't care, I'll slip away first." I shouted to the trestle on the other side, and I carried Master Ma and the bronze beetle in one hand to the depths of the city.
I didn't dare to go to the river outside the city, there was nothing to obstruct it, it was completely open, and I didn't have the courage to cross the river. Therefore, it is better to simply find a higher building to hide, than to be chased and bitten by these insects in the open area.
I heard the sound of insects gnawing at the low wall behind me, but I was panicking, and I was afraid that it would be different from my expected time, and five minutes was enough for me to run to the end of the road. These insects are like trilobites hundreds of millions of years ago, and the mouthparts and other organs are all grown on the abdomen, and the key thing is that this thing is still upside down on the ground, and it is hard to imagine that they rely on sight, so hearing and smell must account for most of it, so I have to hide as much as possible.
This road comes in about seven or eight hundred meters, and at the end of the road, there is a fork in the left and right, which is a T-junction. It is difficult to understand the designers of the ancient city, who entered through the city gate without hindrance, and now the place is divided into two separate roads. Even I know that there is definitely something wrong with this feng shui, and now that it can be such a tragic situation, I am afraid that the dead-end road here may have some impact.
I looked left and right, there was no way to go, I don't know where it was on both sides, the road was gray, but in the blink of an eye, I saw a place to go.
There are many towers in the city, all of which resemble watchtowers, and those buildings are more than twice as tall as the trestle I just visited. That kind of building hall should be called the watchtower, the age is different, there are many names, but from the function of direct understanding, there is nothing wrong with this name.
This is a T-junction, and the watchtower is on the corner of the road to the right, so I hurriedly carried Master Ma on my back. The door was not closed, and it was wide open inward. I glanced back, and saw a dark shadow at the foot of the two interconnected trestle towers, I hurried in, and immediately closed the door, there was nothing clutter here, I found a wooden pole that was placed upside down on the ground, this is the deadbolt, but obviously this thing has no effect, as soon as I got started, I found that the thick wooden pole was very light, not at all like its proportions, and I looked left and right to see that the section at one end was full of holes, as if it had been hollowed out.
