Chapter 100: Parasites
I stepped on the water twice and stopped, and when I turned around, I saw Kiko stopped two or three meters away, stepping on the water in a breaststroke position, and when I saw her, her face immediately turned red, but she still pretended to be calm and asked, "Why don't you swim?" ”
"Here we are."
I shook my head at the stone wall behind me: "Liu Yunsheng found a passage underwater just now, and when we came to check, we met the floating corpse, and the floating corpse didn't move at that time, it is estimated that Hao Jian cut off her arm to anger the people." ”
"Impossible, the reason why the corpse can move is the chain reaction caused by the residual bioelectricity in the body, the corpse no longer has emotions from the moment of death, how can it be provoked?"
Kiko replied casually without thinking about it, talking about things in her professional field, people also seemed to relax a lot, paddled twice and swam to me, looked left and right and continued: "The corpse doesn't act for no reason, what did you do here last time?" Repeating it may lead the body out. ”
"Last time?" I muttered and began to think about it, as if I didn't do anything special, I just went into the water and looked at the passage, and after coming up and discussing it for a while, the corpse appeared...... Wait a minute! That channel!
"I'll have to go down again, you watch out there!"
I told Kiko to turn over and get into the water, and after a few swings of my legs, I came to the passage, and the metal door outside seemed to open a little more, revealing a gap for people to pass sideways, I swam over and pulled the chain, and I felt the rusty water in my hand, and the dark rusty water spread, like I pulled a cuttlefish. Suddenly, a nerve jumped in my head, and a dangerous feeling clouded my heart: "It's coming!" ”
When I turned around, I saw a white shadow rushing towards me underwater, and I hurriedly swam to the surface of the water with joy in my heart, pulled out the mountain knife and held it in my hand and shouted to Kiko: "I'll drag her later!" You hurry up and figure it out! ”
As soon as the words fell, the white shadow swam towards the water, fast as a nimble silverfish, and then the water in front of me exploded, and the fishy well water pounced on my face, I endured the sourness of my eyes and did not close my eyes, the mountain knife raised the water surface and turned half a circle in my hand, and swept thousands of troops directly into the water!
Boom!
With a muffled thud, I felt as if my arm was hitting a steel post, and one hand was gripping my knife-holding hand bowl with such force that it seemed to crush my wrist bone!
Before I could ask Kiko to help, another hand reached out from the splash and grabbed my neck, and then the white shadow turned behind me and gave me a guillotine! I was stunned, Hao Jianming cut off a hand of the corpse just now, why did it grow again? Even if it's a corpse, don't you have it like that!
Just as I was crying out in my heart for injustice, a familiar voice suddenly said in my ear: "Don't move, it's me." ”
Although it was only four words, I immediately recognized that it was Liu Yunsheng, and quickly patted his arm to show that I understood, and when he let go, I immediately couldn't wait to turn around and scold: "Where the hell did you go!" If you don't say a word, you'll be gone, I don't know if we'll be worried! ”
It may be that after soaking in the water for too long, Liu Yunsheng's lips are a little purple, and there is no trace of blood on his face, but his eyes are still indifferent from the past.
Liu Yunsheng glanced at me without explanation, and only showed a little surprised expression when he turned his head to see Kiko: "Why did you come down?" ”
"There are walking corpses in the water, I'll come down and see how to solve it." Kiko explained, "What the hell did you just do? We waited up there for a long time and didn't see you. ”
Liu Yunsheng still didn't explain, looked down at the direction of the underwater passage and said lightly: "You go up, that walking corpse is not something you can handle." ”
"What do you mean? Looking down on people? ”
Kiko was immediately aroused, Liu Yunsheng didn't look at her, still staring at the direction of the underwater passage: "That's not a walking corpse, but a kind of insect that controls the corpse, and the means of the corpse chaser are useless." ”
"Bugs?"
Liu Yunsheng nodded, cut his fingers with my mountain knife to drip blood into the water, and then turned on the flashlight and motioned for us to look.
At first, I didn't think anything special, but soon I noticed that there was something in the water that I thought was dust, and it was quickly gathering towards the blood, and after a while, the blood was absorbed, and the small substances seemed to grow a little bigger
"This insect is called 'parasite', it is a very ancient Gu technique, parasitic in the host's body to feed on flesh and blood, after eating the host empty, replace muscle fibers and tendons with its own body, and can manipulate the corpse to find and capture the next host." Liu Yunsheng wrapped the wound on his hand with waterproof tape, looked at the white insect floating in the water and whispered.
"Previously, it only existed in corpses, but then Hao Jian cut off the corpse's hands, and these insects squirted out along with the corpse fluid," Liu Yunsheng paused, looked at the water and continued, "Now it's everywhere. ”
Liu Yunsheng's tone was very light, but I was still creepy when I heard it, and I could even vaguely feel that countless small insects were burrowing into my pores, and there was no place in my body that was not itchy!
Kiko's face is also difficult to look at, although the method of the corpse chaser originated from the Miao Jiang Gu technique, but it has developed into a faction of its own today, she is a good hand at dealing with corpses, but if it is against insects, it is estimated that it is not much stronger than me.
"You go up first," Liu Yunsheng looked at Kiko and repeated, "We've been underwater for a long time, and there are already bugs in the body, and the time for you to come down is still short, maybe it's okay to go up quickly." ”
"What do you say? Did a bug really get in? I exclaimed, I thought it was my delusion that my whole body was numb and itchy!
Liu Yunsheng didn't speak, put the flashlight on his arm, and saw a red halo crawling with tiny white worms, and grabbed my arm and used the flashlight to shine it, the number was a little less than his, but there were almost dozens!
It's just a circle around the flashlight, and how many bugs there are all over my body, I feel my scalp tingle just thinking about it!
Kiko's expression was distorted, and when he looked up at the wellhead that was more than ten meters high, he almost cried, slapped me on the head and complained: "That dead fat man went to find the rope and didn't come back yet!" How can I go up! It's all your fault for letting me down! ”
I didn't dare to fight back knowing that I was in the wrong, Liu Yunsheng comforted me on the side: "Don't worry too much, generally speaking, there must be an antidote to poison in the place, let's wait here for a while, and then look for it." ”
Kiko calmed down at this time, and I quickly took the opportunity to reassure: "Even if the fat man is coming back, if you are really scared, it is a big deal that I will go to the distance to let blood and suck the parasites!" ”
Before Kiko could speak, Liu Yunsheng suddenly nodded and handed over the mountain knife: "This is an idea." ”
"Uh...... I'm just giving you a suggestion that you don't necessarily have to take, and it's not that urgent, is it? I replied awkwardly.
"I will say!" Kiko gave me a blank look, and I smiled wryly, not daring to mess around again.
