Chapter 104: Cockroaches
I saw that Qi Ye and Zhang Wuxing were climbing up quickly, looking very nervous, and shouted while climbing, "Don't look, go back." While speaking, the Seventh Master and Zhang Wuxing had already climbed to the top of the stone cave where we were.
As soon as the two men had passed, I felt a strong wind coming over me, and hurriedly retracted my head from the cave, and almost at the same time, I heard a click, and a huge pair of pincers came over me, almost clinging to my head.
Then I saw a huge cockroach almost a meter long roaring past, chasing the Seventh Master and them up.
This cockroach is also called scissor worm because of a pair of large pliers on the buttocks, which can often be seen at home when I was a child, and the adult cockroach is no more than two centimeters at most, but now this one is too big.
I poked my head out and found that the Seventh Master had already entered a stone cave, and the cockroach wandered for a while before crawling back to the ground.
"Seventh Master, are you all right?"
I only heard the Seventh Master's heavy gasp, and replied, "It's okay... It's okay, this forest is so wicked, and there are a lot of these big bugs down there. ”
I hurriedly shone down with a flashlight, and found that there were still four or five of these cockroaches on the ground, and they were not small.
"Damn, how did this thing grow so big? How many years does this have to take? Huzi looked at the huge cockroach below, and was also shocked into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the cockroaches below did not mean to climb up, but they were wandering below, probably foraging, and I shone the top with a flashlight, but I still couldn't see how high the boulder was, and now the bottom was occupied by the cockroaches, and we had to climb up if we wanted to leave.
I put on the grappling hook, turned over and got out of the stone cave, both hands at the same time, began to climb up, about ten minutes of climbing, the cross surface of the boulder began to become curved, no longer straight up and down, it is not so difficult to climb up.
Finally, when I climbed to the top of the boulder, I found that the boulder was not only very wide and tall, but also very long, and it was not an exaggeration to call the boulder a hill, and the flat open space at the top of the boulder alone was more than 20 meters long.
At this time, the Seventh Master and the others also climbed up, saw the space on the top of the boulder, and said, "This is a good place to camp!" Let's ...... tonight" Before the words fell, a huge cockroach had already crawled up.
Almost at the same time, we pulled out our shotguns and fired at the cockroach, and a stream of dark green liquid erupted from the top of his head, followed by a terrible scream, and the huge cockroach fell from the top of the boulder.
Looking at the green liquid still remaining on the ground, our faces were full of frightened expressions, in this kind of dense forest, I am afraid that it is not safe anywhere, and it is almost impossible to lie down and rest, I looked down at my watch, and suddenly found that the hands of the watch did not know when it had stopped moving.
"Huzi, look at your watch, what time is it?"
Huzi looked down, then shook his head at me, and then told me that his watch was also broken.
I looked at Qiye and Zhang Wuxing again, only to see Zhang Wuxing shook his head and said, "I never bring a watch." ”
The seventh master said, "There must be a large number of natural magnets here, not only watches, but also the compass. ”
When I heard the Seventh Master say this, I subconsciously looked at my feet and said, "Could it be that this huge stone is a natural magnet?" ”
I wanted to crouch down to check, but now the situation did not allow me to make any extra movements, only to see five or six huge cockroaches crawling over, these cockroaches were not too fast, but the appearance was too terrifying, the buttocks were bent high forward, and a pair of huge pincers hung above the body, which looked very dangerous.
"Run!" I shouted, turned around and ran towards the other side of the boulder, while running, I tied the climbing rope to the grappling hook, hooked the top of the boulder, and then threw the climbing rope underneath, grabbed the climbing rope myself, followed the rope, and went down to the ground, and then the seventh master and they also chased up.
But just to the ground, suddenly found that there was a statue in front of me, this statue is directly behind the boulder, the silhouette of the shape is very similar to a Bodhisattva, I raised the torch to approach, the whole person was stunned, this is indeed a statue similar to the Bodhisattva, more than three meters high, looks very majestic, can even be said to be a little terrifying, I saw his face hideous, his mouth slightly closed staring at a pair of big eyes like copper bells, holding a sword in both hands, stepping on a bloody human head, at this time is looking down at me.
No one would have imagined that this statue with a silhouette resembling a Bodhisattva would be carved so terrifyingly, and it could be seen that the carved knife work was very exquisite, and the whole statue was carved lifelike, and he hurriedly took two steps back to settle down.
At this time, Zhang Wuxing looked back and said, "Those big insects don't seem to be chasing after them, are they already out of their territory?" ”
"Absolutely not!" The seventh master and I answered at the same time.
Based on my experience, such a huge cockroach in this forest, there are almost no natural enemies, even the black snake array just now, may not be able to do anything to these cockroaches, that is to say, in this dense forest they can be rampant and domineering and unscrupulous, and now suddenly stop chasing us, there must be only one explanation, that is, the position we are in now is very dangerous, even these huge cockroaches do not dare to approach easily.
The Seventh Master lowered his voice and said, "Cheer up, be careful." ”
I nodded, raised the torch and said, "Seventh Master, when you look at this statue, I always feel that it looks like a Bodhisattva elephant, but why is it so scary?" ”
The Seventh Master stepped forward to take a closer look at the statue, and was also taken aback, and said, "This is the first time I've seen this kind of Bodhisattva." After saying that, he stepped forward and touched the statue, and then said, "This statue is also very old, but it seems that someone has been here." After speaking, I pointed to the right side of the statue, and I quickly took a flashlight to shine it, and found that there was a pile of burned scorched earth there, and the surface had turned black, and it was obvious that someone had camped here.
"Could it be that there is anyone else who knows about this ancient tomb?" After the seventh master said a sentence in confusion, he immediately turned his head and asked me, "Lao Bai, you didn't tell Wang Chuyi about this Yunnan ancient tomb, did you?" ”
I hurriedly replied, "Of course not, no matter what, she is Boss Jin's person, once you let Boss Jin know, it will be troublesome." ”
The seventh master asked Huzi again, and Huzi also shook his head again and again.
In the end, all of us focused our eyes on Zhang Wuxing, "Zhang Laodao, is it you?" Have you brought people here before? ”
Zhang Wuxing's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Heaven and earth are proof, it's the first time I, Zhang Wuxing, have come here!" ”
The seventh master's expression was solemn, and he whispered, "That's strange, this is obviously a man-made trace, can it be said that ......" Before the words fell, I saw a flash of light in the eyes of the seventh master, and scolded, "Get down!" ”
