060 Ghost Locust
Ye Ya's face was dark, he didn't dare to speak loudly, and pointed to the top of his head. Overhead, the dense "locusts" were shocking, and Ye Ya really didn't want to see it again.
Zhou Dingxuan noticed that Ye Ya's expression was wrong earlier than Gu Fengchun, and followed the direction of Ye Ya's finger. As soon as the two of them looked up, they saw the terrifying scene. Gu Fengchun gasped deeply, but Zhou Dingxuan kept trembling, and after a while, he gasped deeply and sighed: "Good guy, it turns out that it is not extinct......
"What is it?" Gu Fengchun only saw a wriggling fluorescence, and his scalp was numb for a while, and he didn't dare to gasp, so he asked Zhou Dingxuan in a low voice.
"I don't know." Ye Ya shook his head, and then briefly said the scene he saw to Gu Fengchun. When Gu Fengchun heard that there was a "locust" that had stayed on him, he couldn't help but shiver.
This is the "ghost locust." Zhou Dingxuan replied.
"Ghost locusts?" Gu Fengchun and Ye Ya both asked rhetorically. None of them had ever heard the word. However, this term is enough to make the two of them tremble. Ye Ya signaled, and the three of them slowly retreated, don't alarm this group of gasps. Gu Fengchun looked at the words on the stone wall that had not yet been copied, and sighed faintly, he had to give up the work that had not been completed, at this time, it was still important to save his life. He hurriedly read the contents that had not yet been copied several times, thinking that with the help of memory, he could write down as much as he could!
"Not bad." Zhou Dingxuan whispered as he stepped back: "The ghost locust is the most ferocious of the locusts, whether it is a plant or an animal, there is not even a dregs left when encountering them, which is extremely harmful. I know that the last time this thing appeared was in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. They swept through many parts of the Central Plains, causing great harm and indirectly destroying a dynasty. No one knows where these locusts came from or where they were killed, but it has been recorded that they lay their young eggs on animals, just as a moth lays its young on the larvae of a moth. The so-called 'moth has a son, and the moth wins and loses', in fact, this is what it means. Just now you said that the ghost locust stopped on Feng Chun's body for a while, maybe ......" When he said this, Zhou Dingxuan looked at Gu Fengchun worriedly.
Gu Fengchun listened to Zhou Dingxuan's words, and his heart was cold. "Could it be that you have become a host for ghost locusts?" Hurriedly asked, "Uncle Zhou, is there any way to deal with this?" ”
Zhou Dingxuan nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, you can pull out these eggs by smoking them with wormwood, but there are no such things here!"
Ye Ya said repeatedly: "Is there any other way?" ”
Zhou Dingxuan shook his head and said: "No, we still have three days, the eggs of this ghost locust only need three days to grow, and once they are formed, they will be miserable, they will burrow into the internal organs of the host, and even the immortals will have no skills to return to heaven at that time." ”
Gu Fengchun took a deep breath and said, "Don't be afraid, there are still three days, we just need to hurry up." ”
As soon as Gu Fengchun's words fell, the group of green ghost locusts on the stone wall above his head suddenly became agitated. Gu Fengchun's eyes instantly turned a faint red again, and this time everyone looked at the group of things above their heads vigilantly, but no one noticed the changes in Gu Fengchun's eyes.
Ye Ya secretly shouted "not good" in his heart, then reached out to pull Zhou Dingxuan's hand and ran towards the place marked on the map in front. Gu Feng was in a hurry, and he ruthlessly ripped open the zipper of his backpack, and with a quick pull, a thin blanket was taken out by him and draped over his body, so that the exposed parts of his body were covered by him. Although he knew that the blanket could not stop the sharp teeth of the ghost locust. When he finished this series of movements, the ghost locusts officially started to stir, flapping their wings and flying towards them. The ghost locust that fluttered its wings and flew made a "buzzing" sound, which echoed in the corridor, adding a lot of fear to the three of them.
It turns out that a two-legged man can't outrun a flying locust. The three of them stumbled, running on the ground, and after a while, they were chased by the ghost locusts, Gu Fengchun suddenly felt a pain on his face, and blood flowed out. A ghost locust had already bitten him hard in the face, and he ran behind early, but the thin blanket didn't seem to do anything.
Gu Fengchun was furious, slapped his hand back, and the ghost locust fell in response. And Gu Fengchun also found that this ghost locust did not look ordinarily strong, and his hand was faintly painful.
Ye Ya is not much better than Gu Fengchun, he still has to take care of Zhou Dingxuan, and he is anxious all of a sudden. He wanted to free one hand to take out a flamethrower from his backpack to burn this horrible group of insects, but his left hand was already injured and inconvenient, and his right hand was pulling Zhou Dingxuan, there was really no way to separate, and it was too late to let go of Zhou Dingxuan at this moment. It seemed that the detachment he led had to die here, and Ye Ya's heart sank. In the face of small things like ghost locusts, there are many of them, and they are very fierce, even if he has three heads and six arms, it is difficult for him to save himself Ye Ya secretly blamed himself in his heart: his momentary negligence seems to kill everyone!
"Get down, everybody!" A cry came from nowhere, which surprised the three of them. Listening to this voice, Ye Ya and Gu Fengchun faintly felt a little familiar. It's just that in a hurry, it's not clear for a while. Reflexively, hearing this sudden sound, the three of them didn't even think about it, they pounced in front of them, and rolled on the spot, crushing the ghost locusts attached to them. Just as they landed, a large swarm of ghost locusts behind them approached them.
Just as the three of them fell to the ground, a fiery serpent erupted from a place in front of them, and the raging fire suddenly erupted into flames from the ghost locusts hovering above their heads. And the ghost locusts that saw the firelight not only did not panic, but flew towards the fire like moths. A disgusting stench suddenly filled the air. A rancid smell suddenly permeated the space.
The raging fire engulfed most of the locusts in a short time. These ghosts seem to be very spiritual, and when they see their friends turning into charcoal, they turn away from the fire. But he didn't fly far, and he turned around and fell into the flames.
"All right, get up." The voice came from behind a clumsy stone. A figure appeared in front of them.
Ye Ya said in surprise: "It's you?" How did you end up here! As soon as the three of them looked up, they found that the person in front of them turned out to be Chen Si, the school official who looked very similar to Chen Wenming. However, wasn't he supposed to be with his company at this time, searching for the missing archaeologists outside the cave? Chen Si nodded and replied loudly: Yes, it's me. However, he didn't answer the second half of Ye Ya's sentence, he walked over and stretched out his hand towards Ye Ya. Ye Ya was stunned for a moment, and then stretched out his hand. Chen Si pulled Ye Ya up at once.
After Ye Ya stood up, he shook off the clothes on his body and shook off the corpses of the ghost locusts that were burned to death by the flamethrower. Just now, the large group of ghost locusts hovered above their heads, and after being burned to a pulp by Chen Si with a flamethrower, they all landed on the bodies of the three of them.
Chen Si glanced at Gu Fengchun and exclaimed, "Your eyes, why did they become like this?!"
