Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Devil's Poison
Except for Chen Xiaodonkey, no one heard Aunt Fang speak.
Jia Beibei was a little unconvinced, and asked again, did you really see it? Chen Xiaodonkey still shook his head.
In fact, Chen Xiaodonkey also felt that he seemed a little strange, logically speaking, he should believe in Jia Xibei more in this group of people, but his intuition told him that he should listen to Fang Gu at this time.
Maybe it's because of what happened last night? Maybe it's because of the two balls of cotton that Fang Gu handed him?
Chen Xiaodonkey couldn't say clearly, but trusted his instincts.
"Little donkey, if you think of anything, you must tell me in time, this thing is terrible, although I have not seen it before, but I have seen it from some places."
Jia Xibei reminded him earnestly.
Chen Xiaodonkey said yes repeatedly, and then asked, "What record?" ”
"It is said that the corpse face is transformed by the resentment of many corpses gathered together, and it can be seen ominously. Of course, I don't know if it's true or not, but it's not a big mistake to be careful. ”
Chen Xiaodonkey glanced at Aunt Fang imperceptibly, worried.
But this corpse seems to be very afraid of Aunt Fang?
After resting in place for another hour, when Chen Xiaodonkey regained his strength and was able to move, Jia Xibei set the next direction. It is said that the location of the corpse pit must be found first, and as long as the corpse pit can be found, the basic outline of this tomb can be deduced. And if, as Pei Luo guessed, the person who died on the bank of the river was the craftsman who built this tomb at that time, then he was lucky to survive at that time and escaped here by boat, which is very likely to be downstream.
So going against the tide should be able to find some clues.
The stones piled up on the river beach are high and low, and it is difficult to walk, Chen Xiaodonkey and the others walked along the river beach for more than an hour, and pointed to the front of the big pillar: "Third master, this is the end, there is no way." ”
In front of it was an underground lake with more than 300 square meters, surrounded by damp stone walls, and the temperature was very low, Chen Xiaodonkey couldn't help but shiver.
Jia Xibei walked to the side of the wall, touched it on the stone wall, touched it for a long time before stopping, and said: "Flat cutting and horizontal masonry, this piece is manually chiseled, and those who hit the wall are all masters." ”
Pei Luo also went up and touched it when he heard this, and asked, "I don't feel it, how did you touch it, third master?" ”
Jia Xibei scolded: "How many years have you only eaten? As he spoke, he took out a small knife and asked the pillar to shine it on him, and then the hand holding the knife in front of him quickly cleared the stone chips and circled a green brick with an uneven surface.
Chen Xiaodonkey was surprised.
If Jia Xibei hadn't circled it like this, he really couldn't see that the stone wall on this side of the waterhole was made of blue bricks.
Pei Luo muttered, "This doesn't look right." ”
"It's wrong." Jia Xibei nodded and said, "Use a vise to pull out the bricks and take a look, be careful." ”
Pei Luo nodded, took out an octopus-like pliers from Dazhu's bag, and stuffed a few pincer arms into the brick joints cleared by Jia Xibei, and put the back of the lap to death, followed a little bit of force.
The stone bricks embedded in the surroundings kept making an unpleasant 'creaking' sound, and he was actually pulled out by his wrist force one by one.
"It's all good bricks!" Pei Luo took the boxy bluestone bricks in his hand.
Jia Xibei didn't speak, he turned on the flashlight and looked into the concave surface for a while, his hand reached in and touched it, and when he came out, he twisted his fingers, put it under his nose and sniffed it for a while, and said: "There is another layer in it, and the masonry joints are made of glutinous rice milk, damn it's really strange, what are you doing with such a lot of idle work here?" ”
Not only glutinous rice milk, but also corpse oil!
Chen Xiaodonkey took the green brick from Pei Luo's hand, and smelled a very faint strange smell of grease in addition to glutinous rice milk, which made him feel familiar, and after thinking for two seconds, he suddenly reacted to where he had smelled this smell, the big tomb in Nurul Tiger Mountain, in a funeral coffin in the ear room, isn't this smell!
But he didn't say this, he didn't want others to know about his hearing and smell that were different from ordinary people.
"Mom! Youkai! At this moment, the second bull suddenly screamed, pointed to the waterhole and fell to the ground.
Chen Xiaodonkey and the others hurriedly turned around, the light hit the waterhole, and they saw a monster with a human head and a snake body and four pairs of limbs and arms under the water that was seven or eight meters long, with a snake body and four pairs of limbs and arms all over the body, swimming quickly towards the shore.
What the hell is this! Chen Xiaodonkey and the others were startled when they saw it.
"I'm grass!" Seeing that the thing had already landed on the shore and made a pounce action, Pei Luo screamed, and quickly picked up the shell gun hanging on his body and fired at the bottom of the water.
The muzzle of the gun was sprayed, and more than a dozen bullets made a splash in the pool, and the monster's swimming figure to the shore suddenly stopped, and then as if frightened, it immediately turned around and ran back, and disappeared under the water in two or three seconds.
"Did you hit?"
The aftermath of the gunfire echoed among the stone walls, and Pei Luo asked in shock.
Fang Gu stood on the shore very calmly, looked at the strange colored liquid floating on the water, and replied: "I was hit, but it was also troublesome." ”
"Is that corpse poison?" A strange smell wafted into his nostrils, and Chen Xiaodonkey felt that something was not right.
"That's right." Fang Gu nodded.
Pei Luo glanced at Jia Xibei, who was expressionless, turned his head and said, "What is that, why is it in trouble?" ”
"Run!" Jia Xibei suddenly squeezed out a word from between his teeth at this time, and when he turned around, he saw that Erniutou was still sitting on the ground in a daze, and his angry ear scraper woke him up, "Hurry up and run, are you deaf?" ”
"My day!"
Chen Xiaodonkey heard Pei Luo's angry scolding again, followed by a dizziness in his head, and felt a half-suspended rapid backwards, and then reacted that he was actually caught under Fang Gu's arm.
And in the direction of the waterhole he shone with his flashlight, three monsters that looked similar to the one just now, but were obviously larger several times, had already pounced out of the water, and half of them had already climbed to the shore, just looking at their bodies, they were like the legendary earth dragons. And their strange vertical eyes spit out a long, barbed tongue on their faces, curling in the direction of their flight.
Bite!
A long tongue shaved dangerously in front of her eyes, if Fang Gu's speed was a little slower...... Chen Xiaodonkey's heart felt a chill.
They fled frantically on the rocky beach by the dark river, and they didn't know how long it took before the three monsters that had caught up with the shore slowly stopped, and retreated a little unwillingly.
Jia Xibei then stopped, humming and panting, Dazhu and Erniutou were carrying a very heavy bag, and their faces were flushed at this time, no better than the elderly Jia Xibei, among the six people, Chen Xiaodonkey seemed the most relaxed.
"Let go."
With his feet on the ground, Chen Xiaodonkey heard Fang Gu's slightly annoyed voice, and shook slightly, only to realize that he didn't know when he actually hugged Fang Gu's waist tightly, and couldn't help but laugh and quickly let go.
Jia Xibei breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward without warning and kicked Pei Luo to the ground, and then pounced on it and scolded angrily while kicking: "Who told you to shoot, ah?" Who the made you shoot? Grass your grandma, you almost killed everyone, you know! ”
Pei Luo has been following Jia Xibei for a long time, knowing his temper, he directly held his head and let him scold, and when Jia Xibei was tired, he stood up and patted the soil on his body, not only did he not make any trouble, but asked with a smile: "Third master, what was that thing just now?" ”
Dazhu and Erniutou didn't seem to be surprised by this situation, and their shoulders drooped.
Jia Xibei's face was ugly and said: "Ghost poison clams, who specialize in eating corpses, are full of corpse poison all over their bodies, and live creatures will die when they are touched!" This thing Lao Tzu has traveled so many buckets, I saw it once when I was young, and the size was not so big, it was three meters long, and it broke four guys that time. ”
"That's the ghost poison clam?" Pei Luo suddenly lost his voice, "I'm grass, look at that body shape is about to become a sperm, how many corpses do you have to eat to grow like this?" ”
Chen Xiaodonkey pricked up his ears to listen to them, and his nose kept moving slightly, feeling that the smell was not quite right, as if it was the residual smell of cigarettes. He took a flashlight and looked around, paused on the edge of a stone crevice, and carefully removed what was stuck inside.
It was a cigarette tail, not too much dust on it, and judging from the color of the cigarette butt, it looked like it had just been extinguished.
"Which of you just smoked here?" He looked at Jia Beibei and asked.
