Chapter 10: The Covenant Beast Strikes Might
Song Yin hurriedly stopped her, "Don't go, if you go, you are looking for death, and you can't save them at all." ”
Jiang Xiaoqi's figure was stunned, his face was resolute, but his footsteps did not stop, "How can you know if you don't try." ”
"I have a solution, but it doesn't always work, and it's dangerous."
At this time, no matter what method is better than sending him to death, Jiang Xiaoqi suddenly stopped his feet and asked him with a look of hope: "What way?" ”
"Have you ever heard an idiom that the sandpiper and the clam fight, and the fisherman wins."
"You mean......" Jiang Xiaoqi thought about it for a while, and then understood what Song Yin was talking about, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the staircase to the fifth floor, where there were still some degenerated snake skins, as well as a few rags, which should have been left on Wang Wang's corpse, and they had not been corroded.
Song Yin nodded, "Snakes and frogs are originally rivals, as long as we find a way to lure them together, once they fight, we will have a chance to leave, but ......"
"Are you worried about that thing?"
"Hmm." Song Yin's expression was very solemn, since he left the road of recovery, this was the first time he showed such a look, "If that monster really exists, we humans are afraid that ......"
He didn't say the rest of the sentence, he didn't know if he couldn't bear it, or if he was unwilling, if humanity couldn't escape extinction in the end, he felt that it shouldn't end in this way.
"Then......" A fierce killing intent suddenly erupted from Jiang Xiaoqi, "We'll kill it now." ”
Jiang Xiaoqi is a ruthless person, this is Song Yin's deepest feeling now.
"Okay."
Song Yin knew that he was not a heroic figure, and he did not have the great dream of saving mankind, but it seemed that he couldn't stand by and watch this kind of thing when he bumped into it, he nodded in agreement, took out a playing card and scattered it, countless nails with hurricane snake venom fell in the middle of the frog group, and the four of them turned back to the fifth floor as quickly as possible.
The group of snakes had long since disappeared, and only a few lone poisonous snakes were left cruising nearby, noticing someone approaching, and spitting snake hyacinths and swimming towards them.
Song Yin quickly took out the iron cage, turned over to the top of the cage, killed a few snakes first, and used snake blood to lure the frogs down.
As expected, in a burst of numb frog calls, countless vertical frogs the size of eggs jumped to the fifth floor, surrounded by a few dead snakes, and the snake corpses quickly melted into a puddle of rancid pus, the smell was very pungent, and after a while, the snakes in the dark were lured out.
The snake and frog war finally started smoothly under Song Yin's plan.
In order to prevent the venom from affecting them, Jiang Xiaoqi took out a black cloth as thin as a cicada's wings from his pocket and wrapped it around the four of them.
"This is a cloth woven from black silk and metal thread, and I was going to make a few pieces of personal armor, but I didn't have time yet, just enough to block it for a while."
Jiang Xiaoqi explained.
The texture of black silk is very light and thin, and with the addition of metal wire, it can effectively isolate most of the venom, Song Yin didn't expect her to be able to take out such a precious thing, and her opinion of her has changed a little.
Jiang Xiaoqi is not bad, it can be seen from the act she was just about to sacrifice herself to save the twins, she is a person who values love and righteousness, and no matter how bad such a person is, it will not be bad.
"Jiang Xiaoqi, there is one thing I don't think I should lie to you again."
Song Yin thought for a while, and felt that he should tell Ke Jinshi's secret, first, they may not be able to leave alive, second, the revolutionary feelings of living and dying together should not be mixed with those calculations, and third, Ke Jinshi has been integrated with himself, even if he kills him, he can't take it out, in order to avoid future troubles, it is better to be honest.
Jiang Xiaoqi guessed what he was going to say, and was silent for a while, but shook his head and refused.
"Forget it, Song Yin, if we can leave alive today, I can give up Ke Jinshi, so you don't have to tell me. But I remind you that in the future, you should try not to appear in the central garden city, these secrets of yours are no longer a secret to some people. ”
Regarding this, Song Yin has always been unable to figure it out, Ke Jinshi was secretly stuffed by the old man to himself, except for their father and son, no one knows at all, it is impossible for the old man to betray himself, so who revealed it? Is there a third person who knows? Or was the old man already discovered before he got the gram stone?
"All I know is that the person who gave me this news came from...... The road to recovery. ”
"What?"
Jiang Xiaoqi's words made Song Yin fall into extreme astonishment from suspicion and suspicion, he grabbed Jiang Xiaoqi's wrist and asked her repeatedly: "Who is that person?" Male or female? What is your name? He...... What else did he say? ”
"He only said that he was from the road of recovery, and he didn't disclose anything else, but the voice should be a middle-aged man, about 1.75 meters tall, wearing a black robe at the time, covering his face, so I didn't see his appearance clearly, but he has an obvious feature, his left hand does not have a little finger."
Song Yin looked at Jiang Xiaoqi, his eyes were blank, and the whole person seemed to be drained of all his soul, only a voice kept shuttling back and forth in his head.
"No little thumb...... No little thumb ......"
He knew who didn't have a little thumb, but even if he wanted to break his head, he never thought it would be that person.
Jiang Xiaoqi sensed that Song Yin's mood was wrong, and was about to say something more, when Jasmine suddenly exclaimed, the black cloth beside her didn't know when it was corroded out of a small hole, and a vertical frog got in, just touching her calf, and the skin on the leg quickly festered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Jiang Xiaoqi reacted quickly, while picking up the vertical frog, and at the same time, the three-edged bayonet in her hand cut along the carrion, the whole action was smooth, and she didn't even frown, she knew that once she hesitated, Jasmine's life would be gone.
Blood gushed out instantly, and a thick bloody breath filled the black cloth space, which made Jasmine's lips white, and large beads of sweat slid down her cheeks, if it weren't for the peas to support her, I'm afraid that people would have fallen off the cage long ago.
No matter how strong the ability is, if a large piece of flesh is ripped off alive, it will hurt so much that he will cry his father and mother, not to mention that she is still a little girl who is less than twenty years old and lacks experience.
Song Yin didn't have the heart to think about it anymore, took out the painkillers and gauze in the cards, and asked the pea to bandage her briefly.
The surrounding group of snakes and frogs seemed to smell human blood, and actually stopped fighting, and swarmed to the iron cage.
The cage is more than three meters high, and the slightly larger vertical frog can easily jump three or four meters, and for a while the bottom of the cage is like popcorn, countless vertical frogs begin to jump to the top of the cage, and the snakes are wrapped around the iron railing to climb up.
The black cloth was corroded by snake venom and mucus, and soon there were many holes, no matter how strong the black silk was, it couldn't withstand such a toss, and it rotted into a few strips of cloth in less than a minute, and the four people became live targets.
Song Yin slashed the group of snakes and frogs trying to climb up with a knife, and quickly said to Jiang Xiaoqi: "There is slime everywhere in the corridor, without your iron rope hook, and Jasmine is injured again, we are afraid that it will take a lot of effort to go out, it is too dangerous, since we still have to enter that stone room in the end, it is better to take advantage of it now." ”
"Okay."
Jiang Xiaoqi nodded vigorously, and whispered a few words to the twins, in case they made a mistake in their busyness.
Hearing that there was a contract beast locked in the stone room, the sisters stared at two pairs of big eyes, and kept looking in the direction of the stone room, not knowing whether they were surprised or scared.
The iron cage was only fifty or sixty meters away from the stone chamber, and the iron hook on the doorknob was tied to a stone pillar at the other end, forming a rope bridge large enough for the four of them to stand.
Song drank the lifting rope to hook the housing beam, took the lead in carrying Jasmine, and the two of them swung in the air, standing steadily on the iron cable.
The snake and frog group smelled the direction of the bloody gas, and another swarm of bees rushed towards the door of the stone room, Song Yin quickly took off his coat, let Jasmine wrap the injury and retreat to prevent the blood from leaking out, and pulled a knife on his arm, spilling blood everywhere. The snake and frog group has a low IQ, and being played back and forth by Song Yin has bought him a lot of time.
Song Yin concocted the same method, brought Pea and Jiang Xiaoqi back to the iron rope safely, and the four of them finally succeeded in returning to the stone room.
Closing the door, everyone didn't dare to breathe, and after Song Yin turned on the travel lamp and looked around, he finally found a white translucent monster in the innermost corner, which was not much bigger than a dog, which was the 'Covenant Beast'.
The beast was napping on its stomach, two thick white smokes stretching back and forth in front of its nose like snot.
Probably hearing the sound of the door closing, the beast lazily opened its eyes, its black horizontal pupils swept around the four of them, stretched out its hooves and shook its head, and then swayed towards the four of them, looking like they were strolling leisurely, and they could see the expressions that only humans would have on their faces.
It will smile, its eyes are very excited, and when it grins, it looks like an innocent child, if it doesn't know what its body is, Song Yin and the four of them will definitely be blinded by its expression.
A hundred square meters of the house, the beast didn't take a few steps before it came to the front of the four people.
It held its neck high and uttered a few strange syllables from its mouth.
Everyone heard the syllables, and it was asking, "Who are you?" ”
The four of them looked at each other, even if they wanted to break their heads, they didn't expect the contract beast to actually speak human words? Is it really a spliced monster? Could it be that there is a human soul living in the body?
Seeing that no one answered its words, the beast seemed to be angry, stomped its foot, and opened its mouth to spit out a tongue that was half a foot long.
Song Yin had already been sucked away a little bit of his ability when he was still in the wall, and it was in this way that he stuck out his tongue, so as soon as he saw that tongue, he pushed Jiang Xiaoqi and the twins away, and the four of them rolled on the spot in four directions, and then raised the dagger and stabbed towards the beast.
The beast didn't hide, watching the dagger stab, and there was even a mocking smile on the corner of its mouth.
There was no accident, this knife Song Yin stabbed empty, to be precise, he stabbed the body of the contract beast, and even the human knife passed through the body of the contract beast.
Song Yin watched the white mist condense into the appearance of a contract beast again, and his heart sank to the bottom.
Jiang Xiaoqi quickly swung out the iron hook, and also did not bring any damage to the contract beast.
The four of them are stunned, how can this be beaten?
The beast suddenly let out a humanoid laugh, stuck out its tongue again, and curled its mouth at the nearest jasmine.
Jasmine's leg was injured, and her reaction was naturally slower, so she didn't have time to dodge.
I saw that her eyes suddenly went into a trance, and a very painful wail came out of her mouth, and the whole person trembled sharply as if she had been electrocuted.
Jiang Xiaoqi and Pea hurriedly stepped forward to support her, both of them had ugly faces, especially Pea, who looked at the Covenant Beast with eyes that seemed to be about to be eaten alive.
