Chapter 36: The Musician's Figurines

The ethereal sound of the flute seemed to be urgent

The tarsal ant baby wants to break the soul

Stone figurines, a dozen strangely shaped musician figurines, stood in the darkness, and the intermittent, ghostly music of the time came from the stone flutes in their hands.

These dozen or so stone figurines are very strange and peculiar, the size of an adult woman is so tall, very thin, the headband is pointed and thin, the head is small like a woman's fist, the neck is as long as an adult's arm, wearing a robe, but the abdomen is surprisingly large, like a lady who is pregnant in October, the legs are as short as grasshoppers, and the feet are so small that they are almost invisible.

From a distance, these stone figurines looked like they were about to fall down at any time in the cold wind.

In addition, the stone flutes in their hands are long and thick, and when the cold wind blows, the stone flutes in their hands will make a "buzzing" sound, which makes people sound like a breathtaking requiem.

"Why are there so many musicians here?" Xiaomei looked at me and asked.

"I don't know! However, these guys are definitely not here to cheer us on! With that, I walked over to the nearest stone figurine.

I looked up and down at the stone figurine, and found that because of its perennial exposure to the cold wind, and the humidity underneath, it couldn't help but grow a layer of moss on its surface, and there were many cracks, and to my surprise, there was a lot of black liquid flowing out of those cracks, which felt like thick blood flowing from the wound.

But what scares me even more is the ghostly smile on its face.

Smiles are often happy and comfortable.

However, there are some smiles that are not, and this smile not only represents helplessness and loss, but can also make people feel frightened and trembling.

At this time, the sneer on the face of the musician figurines in front of me was this kind of smile.

It looked at me coldly, as if to tell me through this sneer: "Now that you are here, don't think of going back alive." If you want to take the treasure from here, you have to leave your life behind. ”

The weird wall of sighs, the weird pile of corpses of thousands of martyrs, and at this time there are these weird musician figurines.

It all came so suddenly, and I tried to find a clue from all these things to put the whole thing together, but I didn't have a clue.

After a long time, I sighed and said, "Maybe it's just a sacrificial ritual!" They should be ......"

I said a total of seventeen words, but in the midst of these seventeen words, the sound of the eighteen-year-old earth bursting was heard.

With a burst of explosions, several musician figurines in front of me began to burst.

What surprised me the most was that it was their unusually abrupt abdominal cavity that exploded in such a biased position.

"What's going on?" Xiaomei asked in surprise.

"I don't know! That's definitely not a good thing, though! Come on! ”

And just as I was "running" this just exit, the nearest stone figurine suddenly exploded with a "bang", countless broken stone tiles collapsed my whole body and face in an instant, and several large broken stone pieces hit my face and shoulder, and I couldn't help but grit my teeth in pain.

At the same time, a black object inside swooped down on me with the inertia of the explosion.

I subconsciously flickered with a flashlight, trying to see clearly what was coming straight towards me, but this guy was actually a living body, not only that, it moved extremely fast, the light just touched the position of its torso, it turned around and disappeared into the darkness, but faintly from the darkness made a "silky" sound, as if it was a friction sound when the foot touched the stone wall, not to mention how disgusting and disgusting the sound was.

"What's that?" Xiaomei asked with a pale face.

"I don't know! I just saw a black and white guy the size of a baby, furry, full of sharp fangs, and I don't know what it was. I said through gritted teeth.

To be honest, I don't know what this guy is, but I was really startled by the white fangs that came at me when he pounced on me.

And just as the two of us were talking, there were a few "bangs" one after another, and the abdominal cavity of the remaining dozens of musician figurines also burst.

This time, Xiaomei and I finally got a clear look at these guys.

It turned out that they were actually a "baby" with a head as big as a bucket and a body that was only half the size of an adult's forearm. However, these babies are not cute, they have sharp and fine white hair on their heads, and their bodies are short black and white hairs, their hands and feet are as thin as bamboo poles, but they are as hard as iron, they have no hands and feet, and they have many tentacles like ants in their original positions on their hands and feet.

They have human-like facial features, eyes as big as lamps, but only white eyes, no nose, only two small pores for breathing, a mouth occupies almost two-thirds of the entire face, and a mouth full of sharp fangs makes people look very terrifying.

"This ...... What is it? I gasped.

"This should be an ant baby!" Xiaomei gritted her teeth and said.

"Ant baby? How do you know? I asked.

"When you were just looking at the figurines, I accidentally found them on the stone murals on one side." "Yuk believes that babies are the purest things in the world, and their souls are the ones that can help people ascend the ladder of Elysium. Therefore, he ordered 21 newborn babies to be captured among the people, including 11 boys and 10 girls, and washed them several times a day with a liquid mixed with ambergris and snaketail mottled grass, and fed a large number of tarsal canine ants every day, and finally sealed them alive in this musician figurine, where they were tortured day by day. Yuk, however, thought that whenever the cold wind hit, the tarsal pain would bring convenience to his ascent to heaven. ”

"! It's fucking cruel! I said and took a sip. But...... What do we do now? ”

At the time when I was talking to Xiaomei, the dozen or so ant babies still quietly crawled near the two of us, they grew their mouths one by one, saliva flowed down the corners of their mouths, they looked at me and Xiaomei and seemed to be very excited, one by one eager to try, as if the two of us were the most delicious lunch in the world.

However, what makes us strange is that although they are salivating one by one, they are not in a hurry to attack, but keep spinning in place, as if they are waiting for something.

I don't know if these guys are waiting for someone, or if they're waiting for an order.

"What the hell are these guys waiting for?" After a while, Xiaomei finally couldn't help but ask.

"Looks like I'm waiting for it!" As I spoke, I pointed at the only stone figurine in the dozen or so musician figurines that hadn't exploded.

At this time, the stone figurine standing in the deepest part of the dark corner just swayed left and right as if the fetus was moving, and the guy hidden deep in the belly of the stone figurine seemed to be about to break free, and from time to time let out a piercing scream.

The scream was shrill and thin, giving people the feeling of scraping the bottom of a porcelain bowl with an iron spoon, making everyone who heard it unconsciously want to cover their ears.

However, on the contrary, the shrill and piercing cries of the ant babies made them extremely excited for a moment.

These guys wandered back and forth between the rock wall and me and Xiaomei at a very fast speed, and they jumped and rolled a few times from time to time, and some of them even tilted their heads at us and stretched out their tongues, and their mouths made a kind of "quack" sound, as if they were provoking, as if they were joking.

"What does this guy mean?" I said as I waved the tiger teeth in my hand to ward off the ant babies who tried to get closer.

"They don't tell us Wishing you prosperity! I guess they probably mean two choices. Xiaomei said.

"Choice? What to choose? I asked curiously.

"Of course, it's braised or steamed!" After Xiaomei said this, she herself seemed to realize how ridiculous her words were, so she suddenly laughed.

Laughing, laughing, two people laughing at the same time, almost bending over with laughter.

At the moment of life and death, two people can still laugh so presumptuously, if there are outsiders present at this time, he will definitely think that Xiaomei and I are two neurotics, two extra-large neurotics, these two people should be sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

However, at this moment and here, only Xiaomei and I know that this kind of laughter is the best way for the two of us to drive away the fear in our hearts.

Laughter is sometimes not only the best cover for a person's timidity and cowardice, but also a life-saving medicine in life and death.

Sure enough, Xiaomei's laughter and I made those originally restless ant babies pause, they looked at each other sideways, and their white eyes like lamps were full of confusion and confusion, they didn't understand why Xiaomei and I did this, and they didn't understand why the two of us were so happy.

However, just between this moment of lightning, Xiaomei and I first exchanged glances, and then the two of us acted at the same time, rushing towards a stunned ant baby on the left.

We originally thought that compared to other places, there was only one ant baby as a guard, and it was weak, so Xiaomei and I solved it first in a two-on-one way, and when we broke out of the encirclement, we were thinking of other ways to escape.

However, who would have thought that these guys seemed to have expected my and Xiaomei's actions, just when the two of us were about to rush in front of the ant baby, the terrible scream behind us rang out again, and then the ant baby suddenly jumped up, and behind it there were two more white-faced fanged ant babies, and they opened their mouths to bite the two of us.

Seeing this, I hurriedly possessed and bowed my head, although my movements were fast, but the ant baby came faster, only to hear a snort, my shoulder has been a big hole in its shoulder, and the blood lay out in an instant.

"! These guys are actually setting up an ambush! Before I could finish speaking, an ant baby on my left pounced on me, but, to my surprise, when it was halfway down, it immediately lost castration, and then turned its head and ran towards Xiaomei.

I wanted to be born to warn Xiaomei to pay attention to her behind, but at this moment, the three ant babies who had been hovering to my right pounced on me at the same time.
