Suddenly, I saw a figure sitting against the crystal wall not far away.

He's far away, and I can't see it very clearly.

I grabbed the whip and quietly walked towards him.

Kuroko let out a slight grunt in her throat. Every step I take, I am very careful.

As the distance closed, I saw clearly that there was actually a corpse sitting there.

He was wearing a black coat, but it was tattered, and at the slightest touch it turned into dust and fell all over the ground.

The most conspicuous thing is that the top of his skeleton is full of large, pinhole-like holes, and the bones are about to turn into powder.

It's been around for years, and people have been here before me.

To my surprise, at intervals, I could see such dry bones.

They don't seem to come in at the same time.

The only thing that was the same was that the flesh and skin on his body had withered, and only one skeleton remained.

The bones were still covered with small holes, and it seemed as if even the bone marrow had been sucked up by something.

The passage was long, and I found dozens of these bones one after another.

It seems that a long time ago, people often came here, but the people who came in were already dead.

I suddenly understood a little, Wu Zhiqi, the ancestor of the Wu family, must know about this place, otherwise he would not have gone to great lengths to get his hands on that bronze mirror.

I just don't know what the bronze mirror has to do with this.

The passage stretched out for hundreds of meters, and suddenly two intersections appeared in front of it at the same time.

I hesitated, not knowing which passage to take.

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps. The footsteps were hurried, and it seemed that someone was running desperately in this direction.

Sure enough, after a while, a figure rushed over very quickly, he covered his head with his hands, and even covered his entire clothes on his head.

He didn't see me, and in the blink of an eye he had run up to me and almost crashed into me.

Although he wrapped his head in clothes, I still recognized him as someone sent by the Zhu family.

I quickly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

It was only when he heard my question that the man stopped, and he looked behind him in a panic.

He recognized me and said, "Run, there's something terrible in the passage." ”

"What's that?" I asked, puzzled.

Before he could speak, I heard a buzzing sound coming from behind.

It's a loud sound, like the sound of a lot of motors starting out.

I could never have imagined that there were still living creatures in this space that had been closed for hundreds of years!

Judging by his frightened appearance, he must have encountered something very terrifying.

I quickly retreated and fled towards another passage.

I had barely run out when I heard a buzzing sound getting closer, and they flew into the other passage.

Confused, I turned and walked back the way I came.

Kuroko's eyes widened, and it could feel that something terrible was nearby.

We poked our heads out and looked outside.

Only then did I realize that in mid-air, there were many insects flying with the same color as the crystal wall, which I had never seen before.

They were a big clump, almost like a small cloud.

The man who had just run over was not far from them.

They flew straight towards the man.

In the blink of an eye, the man was surrounded by the mass of insects, and a terrible howl rang out.

His figure was covered in a large mass of insects, but in a few minutes, they flew again.

The man was already slumped on the ground, and the insects flew in the air for a moment, then flew together towards the depths of the passage.

Somewhat frightened, I quietly walked towards the man.

His body was already stained red with blood, and not only his face, but also his body were densely covered with holes the size of needles' eyes.

Blood was pouring out of the holes, more like a mosquito bite.

But no one has ever seen such a terrible mosquito.

I suddenly thought of the little holes in the bones, could they all be dead in the mouths of this insect?

Not only did they puncture his skin, but even the bone marrow was sucked through the holes.

I get a little creepy when I think about it, it's horrible.

If you encounter this kind of thing, there is no hope of surviving at all.

Now it's impossible to turn back.

Because I didn't know where I was, and I didn't know how to get out of here.

I really had no choice but to keep going.

I'm a little dizzy, if I continue like this, let alone find the river map, it is estimated that it will be easy to be trapped in the passage.

At this moment, Kuroko suddenly lowered his head and sniffed something carefully, as if he smelled something familiar.

Kuroko's sense of smell is very sensitive, and he looked up at me. I patted it on the back and motioned for it to follow.

Kuroko lowered her head and kept running towards the front.

We had been running for hundreds of meters when we heard a buzz coming from the front, accompanied by exclamations.

Running in the direction from which the sound came, I saw a figure surrounded by a mass of insects.

Her arms shook rapidly, and at the same time, clouds of cold light spread out from her center, and the insects were shaken to the ground.

Only then did I see that the insects were the size of flies, and their mouthparts were so sharp that they looked like steel needles.

No wonder it can make holes in human bones.

The figure rushed several times in a row, but failed to break out of the encirclement.

Although she was surrounded by insects, I still recognized it at a glance, it was Chu Yao!

Chu Yao's appearance was very embarrassed, and her hair was scattered.

But when I saw her in the past, she had gray hair, but this time she was covered with green hair.

She let out an exclamation, as if bitten by an insect, and more and more insects surrounded her.

If it goes on like this, soon Chu Yao's fate will be the same as that person.

Chu Yao is very strong and is an intermediate spirit master. But in the face of these ubiquitous and deadly insects, she is also helpless.

Because this kind of thing is pervasive, it is simply unexpected.

Chu Yao's speed of swinging the short sword became slower and slower, and more insects were surrounding her.

If this continues, it is estimated that she will not last long.

Chu Yao didn't help me less, of course I couldn't stand aside and watch Hot Brain.

I quickly took out the Whip, which was covered in frost and snow. As the whip swung, the frost swept towards the insects.

As I poured spiritual power into it, the temperature around me dropped by several degrees. Wherever the Spirit Whip touched, a layer of frost and snow hung on the crystal walls.

Although this insect is very domineering, it is very sensitive to temperature. As the temperature dropped, they all flew into the air in a panic.

Chu Yao didn't seem to feel that the insects had flown away, she was still waving her arms wildly.

The gladius of the dagger was still spreading around.

I walked carefully to a place not far from her and said, "Chu Yao, it's me!" ”

Hearing my voice, Chu Yao's short sword stopped.

Her face was pale and terrified.

Two red spots were left on her face, and thin streaks of blood were running down her fair face.

To my surprise, I didn't see the old face of the dragon.

On the contrary, she has fair skin and picturesque eyebrows, and she is actually a stunning beauty.

I wondered why such a beautiful girl always pretended to be an old woman.

Chu Yao wiped the blood on her face and saw me looking at her suspiciously.

Suddenly I understood, touched my face, and realized that in the process of escaping for my life, the old woman's mask had not been lost.

She smiled a little awkwardly and said, "You see my true colors?" ”

I nodded and said, "You're so beautiful, why are you pretending to be an old woman?" ”

Chu Yao snorted, "I hate it when people stare at me the most. ”

She has a very strange idea, and it is because she is beautiful that people like to look at her.

Listening to what she said, she didn't seem to like people staring at her. I quickly lowered my head and asked her, "Are you seriously injured?" ”

Chu Yao took a deep breath and said, "It's okay, it's not a big problem." ”

She leaned against the crystal wall, gasping for air. She was scared enough just now, it was like the rest of her life.

I poured spiritual power into the Whip, and I was covered in frost and snow.

Seeing that they had no chance to get closer, the insects buzzed and flew away into the distance like a cloud of smoke.

Chu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and I asked her, "How did you get here?" What about the others? ”

Chu Yao said with some frustration, "In the passage, we encountered this bone-penetrating green crystal mosquito. One of my men lost his life to cover me. Then Feng Yi and I got separated and fled all the way here, only to be surrounded by them. ”
