Stone Man of the Western Regions Stone Man of the Western Regions Chapter 11: Shadow

The hands of the watch point at 4:30 sharp, which is a time that a diligent person likes.

It's been more than three hours since Ah Jin led me here, and the three of us are still walking in the endless passage. This scenery is like the road to the Altay steppe, straight, deserted, and unchanging......

Presumably, at this moment, the streets of many cities have begun to be inhabited.

And the city we are in, if nothing else, should be immersed in the deep sense of sleepiness brought by the late night.

This is the physiology of people determined by jet lag, like things that happen around us, as small human beings, we are powerless to resist and change, we can only obey.

It's like the pitch black in front of us, it's pure black, so black that it makes people's hearts palpitate. If the four of us had turned off all the lights at this moment, I don't think I would have seen it even if I had put it in front of my eyes.

"The night gave me black eyes, but I used him to find the light......"

In such a depressing environment, the optimism of the fat man once again infected my emotions.

He sometimes turned into a poet, and he was extremely elegant; Sometimes it turns into a joker, and famous sentences come out frequently.

I've got the food in my hand ready, and if the fat man were to switch his identity to a singer, I wouldn't hesitate to put it in his mouth!

For the fat man's extremely ugly singing, I don't know if Yiyi has heard it or not, presumably with Yiyi's character, as long as the fat man speaks, she will stop it in time.

"Senior brother, don't be your poet anymore. You have been to the grave a lot, have you ever seen a situation like this, if you delay it like this, I'm afraid we will not only gain nothing, but also delay the time to go to Lop Nur! ”

When the fat man was still unchanged, Yiyi said to him.

"Fatty, what Yiyi said makes sense."

I said. Like this, there are some boring explorations, and it is easy to get bored.

"This is not a tomb at all, but an altar."

For me and Yiyi's suggestion, the fat man Yuya Yuya said as he pointed the hilt of his saber against the rock on the wall.

"Mandala?"

The scorpion behind the fat man asked.

"Yes, that's what I just saw.

The location here is in the position of the dragon's head, and if the passage in front of us is a dragon's den, then this is a murderous cave!

The most taboo thing about the dragon vein is the chiseling, even the slightest chiseling will make the dragon vein shocked, and spread anger. When the anger is spread, all that comes in is death.

But when I walked for a while, I realized that the passage here did not have the slightest hint of a tomb. On the contrary, it coincides with the legendary mandala everywhere. ”

The fat man slowed down and explained his reasoning to us.

The fat man's words made me confused, and the word mandala was the first time I heard it.

Yiyi's expression was the same as mine, in fact, she didn't even know as much about the pattern and form of the tomb as I did.

Due to his own rejection, and Master Liu is not often at home, Yiyi has no access to this knowledge at all.

"I seem to have heard Mr. Su mention the word "mandala" once. Mr. said that he had once traveled all over a dragon vein in an operation,

As a result, after running through the entire dragon vein, only one altar was found, on which was the body of a general who had achieved great military achievements. Other than that, there is nothing else! ”

The scorpion said after hearing the fat man's description.

Every time he mentioned the second uncle, I listened attentively, for fear of leaving behind the information related to the second uncle.

"Yes, according to legend, the "mandala" is a place that is used to summon "Yin soldiers" ......"

As I was listening, his words suddenly stopped!

At the same time, there was a scene around me that I will never forget!

The raised rocks that used to be unchanged around us are now covered by countless shadows, and the number is beyond imagination.

The shadows were the same size as a normal person's height, and they peeked through the walls, as if the walls around us had suddenly turned into dough in that moment.

The proportions of the shadow's body are imprinted through the walls!

Snuggled in front of me, closer to the wall, those shadows seemed to be able to smell the breath of people, straight towards Snuggle!

Although the speed is not very fast, but such a huge number makes people feel oppressive all of a sudden!

As soon as I pulled Yiyi next to me, the shadow that had been approaching her suddenly changed direction, from a frontal angle to Yiyi and me, to a sideways movement.

Their purpose turned out to be the position of the fat man!

Due to the abrupt appearance of these things, it was only after I dragged Yiyi that I noticed the situation of the fat man and the scorpion.

That's when I realized what made the fat man's narration stop suddenly. I saw that the wall behind the fat man gathered a large number of these unknown shadows, and there were more shadows approaching his position from the front and back passages.

Even on the opposite wall, there were countless shadows, and they were moving towards the fat man from the top of the passage above us.

The scorpion was in better condition, except that the corners of his clothes were being dragged by something inside the wall.

At the same time that I pulled Yiyi to my side, the scorpion had already cut the corners of his clothes with a Swiss Army knife.

At this moment, the fat man was firmly stuck on the wall, and from the wall, a hand stretched out and firmly locked the fat man's shoulder. At the same time, several arms were about to break through the constraints of the wall and reach for the fat man's waist, abdomen, and legs. If it weren't for the fat man's heavier weight, Yiyi and me would have been dragged into the wall a long time ago. Rao was fat, and a third of his body was stuck in the wall.

The fat man is not the kind of master who is slaughtered by others, although his body is being vigorously pulled against the wall, but his hands can still move. The MP5 submachine gun in my hand kept smashing the hand that was passing through the wall, and in the process of the fat man's smashing, I heard a familiar muffled sound! If you look closely, those arms peeking through the walls are actually stone!

"Steppe Stone Man", at that moment, my mind was flooded with this term, and at the same time, I remembered the strange shape of the corpse belonging to the expedition of the "Europa" company!

I was thinking of a remedy when I saw the scorpion's body rush towards the fat man almost ghostly.

The distance between them was not very far, and the scorpion made a beautiful aerial movement, and his feet on the wall flew directly to the front of the fat man.

When he didn't land in the air, the scorpion held the Swiss Army knife in his hand in a vertical downward position, and at the moment he landed, he plunged straight into the stone arm that grabbed the fat man's shoulder!

When the scorpion's feet touched the wall, there were many "steppe stone men" who were moving towards the fat man, and their bodies were all stagnant, and after his feet left the wall, they began to move towards the fat man again.

"Senior brother!"

"Scorpion beware!"

After seeing the scorpion's series of beautiful movements, Yiyi and I spoke almost simultaneously to remind the two of them.

Yiyi means to tell the fat man not to move anymore, so as not to be injured by the Swiss army knife of the scorpion.

I told the scorpion to watch out for the arm sticking out above his head, and I had never seen a man bounce as high as a scorpion before.

He just stepped on the wall with his foot, and with a single boost, he could get straight to the top of the passage.

The height was nearly five meters away, and when his head was close to the top of the passage, the "steppe stone man" who was originally moving towards the wall on the other side actually stopped in unison and stretched out his arms out of the wall, the speed was definitely not comparable to these stone men who grabbed the fat man.

This kind of situation of different creatures appearing in the same space has also been encountered by me and the fat man in Zhao Tuo's tomb.

I think these stone people have the same nature as those Gu worms, some of them are already mature, just like the Gu Worm King, and some may just have some kind of ability, just like those slow stone men who are grasping the fat man.

Now, when I recount the experience that I remember vividly, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

All of this happened in a very short period of time.

As the scorpion fell almost along with the warning voices of Yiyi and me, something happened that Yiyi and I never dreamed of!

The speed at which the scorpion fell from the sky was very fast, and at his speed, it must have accumulated a lot of strength.

With such a force, combined with the sharpening iron of the saber, inserted on the stone man's arm behind the fat man, it will definitely separate the entanglement of the fat man and the stone man's arm!

But before the scorpion fell, that is, when the saber was only a fraction of a millimeter stuck on the stone man's arm, the arm that had been dragging the fat man closer to the wall suddenly retracted!

And at the same time as the stone man withdrew his arm, the fat man disappeared as if he was caught in a dough wrap!

Seeing this, the scorpion couldn't stop its speed at all, and disappeared into the wall with the fat man!

In such a tomb-like space, the fat man and the scorpion are both people who make me feel extremely secure.

I never thought that in such an environment, the two of them would be killed by some kind of danger, I always felt that even if there was danger, with the ability of the two of them, they would definitely save the day!

This point is still there after the scorpion's series of movements when the fat man was dragged by those unknown stone arms.

But when these two characters who had a strong role as pillars in my heart disappeared in front of my eyes, my perception began to change. It was as if the sky was falling, and I was the only one left to carry it!

At that moment, my head rumbled.

And Yiyi was much calmer than me, and without hesitation, she ran directly to the place where the fat man and the scorpion disappeared, and at the same time, the pistol in her hand rang out at that moment!
