Chapter 154: Monster vs. Monster
The roar of other monsters rang out again.
Unlike other beasts, this roar seems to be mixed with a lot of human resentment, sadness, anger, fear, and ferocity, which will penetrate into people's hearts with this sound.
And they were moving so fast that I could only follow the roar and see black shadows emerge from the ground, and then flicker and move like a fly, as if they had attacked us in an organized and disciplined manner.
If I were alone, don't resist in this environment, I'm afraid I'll forget if I run for my life. Fortunately, Xiao Shirong was very sober at this time, and he pulled my clothes and turned around and ran in the direction of the stone gate just now, which was the only exit we know so far.
I didn't run two steps before I heard someone shouting behind me: "Chase!" Don't let them run! ”
It must have been the purple robe who discovered our whereabouts and ordered the Chiyou people to chase us. Fortunately, several monsters had already pounced on them and scuffled with them, and for a moment no one could rush directly to catch us.
I even had a thought in my heart, since this is the tomb of my ancestors, could these be tomb keepers or something? Could they have come out to help me escape?
But I soon realized how true this thought was, and in a moment of distraction, a dark shadow leaped up from the ground and slammed into my front door less than two meters in front of me.
Now I can see clearly, this monster is actually a bit like a human, with arms and legs, but it is obviously much stronger, and the hands have developed into a kind of curvature similar to claws. The most disgusting thing is the fangs that pierced the mouth.
What the is this? Grow like this and still survive?!
I was so shocked that before I could react, Xiao Shirong noticed it, flew up and kicked directly at the monster's chest, directly kicked it off balance, flew past me, and smashed on a pile of dried corpses.
"Don't be stunned, run!" He yelled.
That's when I realized how stupidly I was standing there like a target. I quickly opened my legs and continued to run in the direction of the stone gate.
Luckily, these monsters weren't as powerful as I thought they were, and when I was attacked again and again, I was able to get rid of their fluttering by dodging on my own, and then I just ran without looking back.
I didn't expect that we had been in the pile of dried corpses for so long, and the hole in the stone door was like a box, and even though we were running fast, it was still slow to zoom in.
Monsters were still scurrying out of the ground, and in addition to the roars around me, I heard the sound of bones smashing behind us.
I quickly looked back, and if the monsters we had just dodged were chasing us from behind, we would not be able to be pounced by the monsters coming from behind.
Fortunately, when I looked back, it was the purple robes who led a group of people from the Chiyou clan who were also running this way. Thinking about it, even Xiao Shirong can deal with monsters, it is estimated that it will be a piece of food for them.
"Run, they're catching up!" I turned around and talked to Xiao Shirong.
Before the grandson could finish listening to me, he pushed me to the side, I lost my balance, tripped over the corpse under my feet, and with the inertia of running, my body flew out at a bizarre angle.
But it was then that I saw a dark shadow pass past me, and I knew that Xiao Shirong had instinctively dodged me.
Immediately afterward, there was a dizziness and swelling, and my head must have hit something hard.
I knew I was lying on a pile of dried corpses, and I rolled my eyes upwards and braced the muscles in my head in an effort to clear myself.
Xiao Shirong came over and forcibly pulled me up, but I was already spinning, don't run, it's hard to walk. Listening to the voices of the big army getting closer and closer, I couldn't balance my body at all, and I wanted to shake off Xiao Shirong's hand in a hurry, "You go first!"
Originally, we didn't have much distance from the people behind us, and we were immediately caught up.
I saw Xiao Shirong leave me, holding a knife in his right hand, and stabbed in the direction of the purple robe, no matter how confused I am, I know that this is the thief who captures the king first, if he hurts the purple robe, it will naturally be like hitting their command system.
But that guy was obviously not bad, he was startled at first, then turned sideways to avoid the knife, and reached out to grab Xiao Shirong's arm.
I was not feeling good, there was still a fight over there, and a few people had already rushed over and controlled me firmly. It looks a little funny, dragging me with one hand, and the other hand is still fighting with the black shadow monsters around me, and there are monster wails from time to time.
I think you guys are some kind of monsters, you can't even settle these guys.
Xiao Shirong was not optimistic on his side, I thought he was very capable of fighting, but after a few moves, his weapon was confiscated, and then hand-to-hand combat, he actually didn't beat this thin-looking purple robe, and he was also pressed on Lin. The purple robe looked proud, and Xiao Shirong was angry.
The Chiyou people in the back also caught up and wrapped us in a circle, although they did not let us escape, but they also played a role in protecting us temporarily.
After a fierce battle, all the surrounding monsters dispersed, leaving only a few dead or heavy corpses.
After dealing with the monsters, it is natural to deal with us.
The purple robe glared at us very proudly, but he didn't want to kill us at this moment, but instead ordered his subordinates to continue to sandwich us in the middle and go back inside.
At this time, most of the confusion in my mind had turned into pain, so my mind gradually recovered, and I asked, "What was that just now?" It doesn't matter who answers me.
"Ghouls." Purple robe.
"Ghouls? Isn't that something from Western biography? I asked him.
The purple robe only snorted twice, and did not explain again, like an arrogant old professor seeing a student.
He had a point, but I should have thought that the one who could survive in the tomb full of dried corpses, and the one who fed on dried corpses, was it not a ghoul? However, whether this thing is an animal or something of some kind of attribute, just looking at the corpses on the ground, I can't make a conclusion.
But at the same time, another thought flashed through my mind, ghouls pounced from under the corpses full of dried corpses, and retreated underground, so their living environment is also underground? Are they opening up tunnels underground? If that's the case, can we escape through these tunnels?
But soon I felt that my idea was ridiculous, and that just because the ghouls couldn't beat Chi You didn't mean we couldn't do it. We escaped into their holes to escape Chiyu, and that was just a different way of dying.
Fuck, this kind of place, called undesirable, called the ground is not spiritual, is it possible that I really want to be at the mercy of these grandchildren?
After the fierce battle just now, these people were also much more vigilant than just now, on the one hand, to prevent us from escaping, and on the other hand, they were afraid that something would come out again in the dark, so they kept shining torches everywhere.
This also allowed me to once again appreciate the strength of the Chiyou tribe. I can't help but look at the corpses of the ancient Chiyou tribe on this ground, who can cure them? Even if he doesn't live until now, I don't know if his demon magic has been handed down, I really want to learn it right away.
The group of ghouls seems to be very organized, coming together when they come, and after retreating, there is no sound. I don't know if we are hiding underground and watching us and waiting for the opportunity, or if we are beaten so that we don't dare to come again.
The adversity of life is probably like this, there are wolves in front, tigers in the back, monsters in the open, and monsters in the dark. Although I didn't have to worry about my life for the time being, it also made me very depressed.
Another thing that makes me very curious is, where did the purple robe lead us? What could be behind the corpses here? Is there any purpose for him to let me and Xiao Shirong in so persistently, and not to let us run so persistently?
I thought as I walked, I don't know how long I walked, but I finally saw the edge of this underground mass grave.
However, this wall is nothing special, it is just an artificially rammed earthen wall, so that it can be stronger on top.
Like an astute wolf, the purple robe kept waving his torch and turning his eyes to look around, looking for something.
I followed his gaze almost inadvertently, left and right, stopping a few places, and when I saw a visible stain of blood, a sense of foreboding welled up in my heart. Sure enough, the purple robe soon saw the blood totem as well, and turned his head to look at me excitedly again, and that look really made me want to run.
As a result, with a wave of his hand, I was once again pulled up by a group of people, and I was held in the air, and I knew that the next action was to use my arm to slam the wall.
Sure enough, the wound on my hand was still bleeding, and after being hit against the wall, the earthen wall crumbled at a rapid pace, and I quickly turned my head back, because maybe another gust of wind blew my eyes.
But this time, no wind blew out, and after two or three seconds, I turned my head and found that there was a ditch in the hole in the wall, which was quite deep, and I was about to take a closer look, when the unqualified things threw me directly to the ground.
It didn't hurt me, but I soon realized that something wasn't right! There was a force that carried me down.
That's when I realized, how could there be sand under me? The place where these guys threw me just now happened to be the highest part of the ditch, and somehow there was an extra layer of quicksand under me, and the force of the fall just smashed the sand, and I rolled down the ditch with my whole body.
I hurriedly reached out to grab something, but I felt something at the wound of the dead and was so painful that I withdrew my hand, which was good, and I just turned over and fell in.
