Chapter 516: The Golden Thread Centipede

The barefoot children held hands and surrounded us in the middle, and began to mutter, and I felt that they were whispering, but I could not understand what they were talking to, but the sound of the voice was very resentful and vicious, and it sent chills down my spine.

"Squeak......" The old woman let out an eerie laugh, and the expression on her face began to become distorted, and she stood right in front of us and stared at us, without coming over or making any unnecessary movements.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" I dared to ask, but the old woman did not respond, and still stood there with a gloomy face and laughing.

At this time, Wang Chuyi took out his pistol, aimed it at the old woman, and said, "Get out of the way, or I'll shoot!" ”

Wang Chuyi's warning really worked, the old woman's laughter stopped abruptly, and then the children who surrounded us began to run towards us frantically, and the encirclement began to shrink in an instant.

didn't have time to think about it at all, Wang Chuyi quickly pulled the trigger.

"Bang ......"

Three gunshots rang out, and the bullets that shot out instantly hit the old woman's head, chest, and abdomen.

After being shot by the gun, the old woman fell to the ground in an instant, and the barefoot children around us disappeared as if they were an optical reflection.

At this time, I walked quickly towards the old woman, so many years of inverted fighting, we have fought with a lot of zongzi, but never hurt the living, according to the rules of this line, as long as there is a life in the hand, you must not approach the main coffin, let alone open the coffin, so for this, we all keep it in mind.

When I walked in front of the old woman's body, I suddenly found that although Wang Chuyi's three bullets had opened three big holes in the old woman's body, no blood flowed out, and the body was dry and the skin was very wrinkled.

I squatted down, touched the old woman's nose with my hands, and after making sure that she was not breathing, I looked at Wang Chuyi, "It seems to be dead." ”

Wang Chuyi frowned, nodded, and did not speak.

I touched the old woman's arm again, and suddenly I felt that something was wrong with the flesh on the old woman's arm, it was not as soft as a living person, but as hard as a dead branch, and even if she had just died, the corpse would not have stiffened so quickly.

I was very puzzled, so I used my saber to cut the old woman's clothes off her arm, and when I saw her arm, I couldn't help but be stunned, and the whole person jumped backwards like a reflex.

This old woman's arm is a stake! And this stake is also covered with thorns, just like the stake I touched before, and in an instant fear spreads, I feel cold, and hurriedly waved my hand to Wang Chuyi, "Hurry up and get out of here, this old woman is not human!" ”

After listening to me, Wang Chuyi wanted to take another look at the old woman's corpse, but I stopped him, in case something happened again, I'm afraid we haven't reached the entrance of the ancient tomb yet, so we will explain here first.

I picked up Wang Chuyi and began to run in the northwest direction, and the two of us held torches high and ran through the bushes that could not be seen at this glance, like two large fireflies.

Now I don't care so much about it, I just want to rush forward, run forward, and get as far away from the old woman as possible.

In this way, the two of us ran for a while, and only then stopped when I stepped on something soft.

I lowered the torch in my hand, and when I looked closely, I realized that what I was stepping on was a corpse! A large number of corpses, more than a dozen people, filled a low-lying pit.

"Mercenaries?" Wang Chuyi said suspiciously.

Judging from the clothing of these corpses, they are indeed mercenaries, and the weapons and equipment of these people are still on their bodies, I checked carefully, and some of the mercenaries did not even open the safety of their guns, and they died tragically.

Regardless of this for now, Wang Chuyi and I decided to dismantle the equipment of these mercenaries first, after all, the weapons and equipment brought by these mercenaries are much stronger than ours, the standard M16*, coupled with high-explosive *, as well as flares and individual oxygen absorption devices, we were surprised, I didn't expect the mercenaries under the big shopkeeper to have such luxurious equipment, put them on weekdays, I would definitely treat them as American Rangers.

Wang Chuyi and I each dragged a corpse out of the pit and began to disassemble the equipment on the corpse, and when we were almost dismantling, I accidentally skimmed the mercenary's face, and I couldn't help but gasp.

"Be careful! Don't touch their skin! "I nervously reminded Wang Chuyi, because the face of the mercenary in front of me was already swollen with pustules the size of quail eggs, and his skin would be stretched transparent.

I took out my flashlight and took a photo, and through the thin layer of skin, I could see that there was an insect egg wriggling inside the pustule, and these mercenaries must have encountered a very lethal insect here, and these insects silently infiltrated the mercenary's body, using it as a breeding ground for their own eggs.

"Let's go... Come on! As soon as I pulled up Wang Chuyi, who was still sorting out his equipment, I began to walk forward.

Wang Chuyi hurriedly put on the tactical backpack and followed me forward, along the way, I began to become cautious, especially to pay attention to some small flying insects around me, we held torches in our hands, the light attracted some moths, I looked carefully, these are ordinary moths, there is no threat to us.

"Lao Bai, look at it!" Wang Chuyi behind him let out an exclamation.

I quickly turned to look and found a ten-centimeter-long golden-threaded centipede crawling slowly in front of her.

This golden-threaded centipede contains highly poisonous, not to mention being bitten by it, even if it is directly touched by the skin, it will be poisoned by the highly toxic mucus secreted from the surface of its body, but this golden-threaded centipede is a rare medicinal material, which is crushed into powder after drying, and has the effect of hemostasis and pain.

"Don't move, I'll come!"

I put on my gloves and prepared to catch the golden-threaded centipede.

As I approached the centipede step by step, the centipede suddenly raised its head, and its two long tentacles swayed back and forth in the air.

"Oh no, it's summoning companions!" Wang Chuyi said.

At this time, I looked up to the left, and saw that dozens of golden-threaded centipedes had begun to crawl in our direction, and they were very fast.

In an instant, the roles were reversed, the original hunter became the prey, I pulled Wang Chu and turned around and ran, I wondered in my heart, this kind of golden centipede is very rare, it is a solitary insect, some old Chinese medicine doctors may not be able to meet one in their lifetime, how can there suddenly appear so many now? What changed the habits of these centipedes?

Wang Chuyi and I quickly got rid of those golden-threaded centipedes, and although those golden-threaded centipedes were not slow to crawl, it was still impossible to catch up with the two running adults.

After getting rid of the golden centipede, we soon ran to a cliff with no road ahead, and looking at the towering cliffs, I had a bad feeling in my heart.

"Where the hell is the entrance to the tomb?" Wang Chuyi asked with a frown, and turned to see if those golden-threaded centipedes had caught up.

Fortunately, we had already run a long distance, and even if those golden-threaded centipedes were to chase after them, they wouldn't be here for a while.

I looked up at the cliff in front of me, and suddenly I noticed that about ten meters away on our left, there was a small hole dug by hand!

"Here, over here!" I hurriedly ran over and found that this small hole was made by someone with an electric drill bit, and it was very densely distributed, and many small holes were filled with steel bars.

These steel bars are separated left and right, forming a ladder for climbing upwards, I looked up and found that at a distance of seven or eight meters above our heads, there is a section of climbing rope leaking outside, judging from the material of the climbing rope, it should be left by Huzi, this kind of climbing rope can only be obtained by Wang Chuyi, when Wang Chuyi left Boss Jin, it is said that there are still a lot of leftovers in the warehouse, and it seems that it was brought by Huzi. 、

"Up there, look, there's a cave there!" Wang Chuyi turned on the flashlight and shone upward.

I looked in the direction of his flashlight, and found that there was indeed a cave with a depression inward, this cave was about two or three meters wide, and the height should only be about one meter, but if you want to climb in, it should not be a big problem, and the end of the climbing rope hanging above my head is also connected to the cave, and it seems that the tigers climbed up from here.

"Quick, let's go up from here, and try to get ahead of those golden-threaded centipedes." I started to climb up by grabbing the bare steel bar at the bottom, and soon grabbed the rope and started to slowly climb up the rope.

Wang Chuyi followed closely behind me, and when I was halfway up, I looked down and found that the golden-threaded centipedes had gathered at our feet, ready to start climbing upwards.

If it were on flat ground, these golden-threaded centipedes would certainly not be able to keep up with our running speed, but on such cliffs, we were far from being the opponents of these golden-threaded centipedes.

"Lao Bai, what should I do, these centipedes are going to climb up!" Wang Chuyi, who was below me, shouted nervously.

For insects, Wang Chuyi always has a natural sense of fear, on weekdays in the ancient tomb, I didn't pay much attention to it, until we got married, I found that Wang Chuyi is still very afraid of insects.

"Don't look down, climb quickly, hurry, speed up!" I continued to climb while reminding Wang Chuyi, and at this time, I found that the rope was sticky, and my hand slipped and I almost fell down.

"Lao Bai, what's wrong?" Wang Chuyi below exclaimed.

"It's okay, there's something on the rope, it's slimy and a little slippery, be careful when you come up." I raised my hand and sniffed it, and I felt a bad smell of urine, mixed with garlic.
