Chapter Eighty-Nine
If you think about it, it's also the same reason, if you use poison gas, the stability of this thing is too weak, you can imagine, what if it rains or winds here?
Although this sandy land should not be the case in normal times, who can guarantee that there will not be an exception here for hundreds or even thousands of years.
And if that kind of poisonous gas is like this, as long as it is such an accident, it will be destroyed immediately, and even if the ancients no longer have the foresight, they will not set up such a mechanism that can be destroyed by the slightest accident.
But this poisonous insect is different, no matter what kind of accident, as long as the sand is still there, these poisonous insects should be able to survive.
"Xiaowen, what's wrong?" Maybe it was because he found that I hadn't spoken for a long time, so Brother Long asked at this time.
I sighed and said, "Fourth Master Wang, they may have already gone in. ”
"What, but they don't have gas masks or anything like that, how can they get in?" Lu Xiaodan asked while pinching his waist.
I had to talk about the situation in front of me, if it was just to protect against the kind of sandworms underground, then there was no need for gas masks at all.
As soon as I finished saying this, I felt a pain in my buttocks, and Lu Xiaodan's flying foot had already kicked my buttocks.
I, it hurts, I looked back at her, she sent a provocative look, I had to avoid it, who called it was I didn't calculate.
However, Brother Long thought for a moment and said, "Xiaowen, don't worry too much, I think they have just entered for a while." ”
"Why do you say that, Brother Long?"
"Because of the dead man." Wen Ruhu said on the side at this time.
As he spoke, we all turned our heads to look at the dead body, yes.
If this dead man looked like he had been killed not long ago, if he had died here a long time ago, then what we saw should not be a person who could still speak, but only a corpse.
This shows that when they arrived here, they may have been a little blindsided, although they left three days earlier than us, they should have stayed here for a long time.
In the process, they encountered danger, and then the fourth master Wang probably found the way and took them in.
Thinking about it, they really haven't been gone for long.
Hey, wait, that corpse, why does it look so awkward?
I took a closer look at the corpse, and it seemed to be a little awkward, as if it was missing something compared to just now.
"Where's the bloodworm?" Zhang Siqiao said beside me.
Damn, sure enough, the red bug on the corpse that had been smashed in the head disappeared at this time, and there was nothing left.
No, the worm is already dead, will it crawl away on its own?
I had a cold war, so is there such a thing around us?
Brother Long and his people immediately took action, directly forming a circle, surrounding me, Lu Xiaodan, and Zhang Siqiao in the middle, and guarding them around.
"Xiaowen, let's not talk about this for now, we have to leave quickly, now you talk about it, how can we act better?"
"Drive." I immediately said that since I can't retreat, I can only move forward, and in any case, the method of driving is the most time-saving and labor-saving.
Otherwise, it's a little scary to just walk into the sand and think about those red bugs.
What's more, Wang Siye and his people are here, but their car is not here, which means that they are also driving away.
"Okay, get in the car, lock the door, quick." Brother Long gave an order, and a few of us immediately took action and ran towards the car.
I ran straight to a car and flew in.
As soon as I turned my head, there was no one driving in the place where I was driving, and behind me, Zhang Siqiao and Lu Xiaodan were sitting.
Just about to lock the door, as soon as the main driver's position opened, Brother Long jumped up.
He locked the door, immediately picked up the walkie-talkie on the car and said, "Attention all cars, with me as the leader, we are ready to enter." ”
There were a few voices, and Brother Long looked at me and said, "Xiaowen, let's go, you show the way." ”
"Wait." I immediately stopped him, looked at my watch, and said, "We have to leave in ten minutes." ”
"Why?"
"Because we have to wait until the next tornado has turned in front of us, so when we're almost there, I think the tornado should be in our area, and we're going to be in the center of this constant tornado to keep going."
Brother Long probably didn't understand what I was saying, but he just thought about it for a while, and immediately nodded at me, and asked me to direct the time to move forward.
He really trusted me, and he didn't think that if I was wrong, it would probably send everyone to die here.
And I've been wrong once.
"Is this time accurate?" Lu Xiaodan asked at this time.
I had to smile bitterly at her, I don't know if this time it's accurate.
Because judging from the picture, combined with my thoughts, I have encountered Seventy-two Trick City before, and I feel that this nine-way entrance to the cave is probably also such a combination of numbers.
Seventy-two, nine journeys, starting from us, and entering that central position, have to pass through nine such tornado formations, plus the control of time.
That is to say, it is not only because of the eight trigrams with nine strokes, but also the formation of seventy-two, I am afraid in terms of time and distance.
Thinking of this, I took out the diagram again, measured it carefully, and entered the most central position from us.
Damn, according to the scale of the picture, if we get inside now, it will be exactly ninety kilometers away.
I had a cold war, these ancients built these places too accurately, right?
Ninety kilometers, another nine appeared, then if it is accompanied by another eight, that is, in time, it may be eight hours.
Thinking of this, I paused.
"Xiaowen, the time is almost up." Brother Long reminded him.
"Wait, even if it's a little bit longer and then leave." I immediately stopped him and calculated carefully on the paper.
Eight hours to walk nine miles, that is, we can walk for 480 minutes.
Walking from here to the tornado in front, according to Brother Long, if we go through it with all our might, it will be able to pass in eight or nine minutes, but I don't think the ancients would have let us rush in so quickly.
And in the past, it was impossible for people to drive in, that is, if we really wanted to go in, we had to consider walking, running, and the strongest being the state of horseback riding.
If it was running, I was shocked. An equation arises in my mind.
If we run to the past, it will take about 20 minutes, and if it is related to eight or nine, that is, the first thing that comes to mind is twenty-four minutes.
In this case, the nine journeys should be divided equally between 288 minutes, which means that each journey can be divided into 32 minutes.
Are these ancients ready for us to even have time to rest?
"Brother Long, look at the corpse." A voice came over the intercom.
A few of us immediately looked over to the corpse.
At this moment, everyone was shocked, and at this time, from the sand, more than a dozen red and wrist-thick insects were slowly crawling out and rushing towards the corpse.
The corpse was quickly bitten into a lump of shreds.
It was fast enough, and in just a minute, the corpse was only a pile of bones.
And those insects finished eating this corpse, as if they still had a little unfinished meaning, and they all turned towards us.
"Let's go." Brother Long shouted at this time, obviously he didn't have any way to face these red bugs.
I glanced at the time, and it was okay, it was exactly one hour.
"Let's go, keep moving, twenty-four minutes, and get to the tornado in front of you."
Brother Long stepped on the accelerator and our car immediately rushed out.
The car behind immediately followed, and fortunately these red bugs, although scary, were not very fast, and I could see through the rearview mirror when our car drove up the sand.
They slowly moved into the sand.
"Xiaowen, what do you mean by keeping the speed of the car just now?" Brother Long only then had time to ask.
"Don't worry about it, just keep the speed of the car, it will take eight or nine minutes to rush through with all your strength, and you can drive slowly forward at one-third of the full speed." I had no choice but to say.
At the same time, I kept calculating in my heart, what kind of character this King Song Huaiyang is, and how can he calculate time so accurately.
The number seventy-two was so popular at the time? You have to use it everywhere.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that this tomb of the King of Huaiyang is probably not as simple as Brother Long said at the beginning, this place is probably similar to the ancient city of Yinshan that we encountered.
Damn, if that's the case, then we're not going to be lucky enough to go in this time.
But I've already come here, I want to go back now, it's too late, what's more, I'm still following Brother Long and a few of them, if I really have to leave now, then what will they do?
"Look." Lu Xiaodan shouted behind at this time.
Her hand was pointing into the distance.
A few of us immediately looked over, and saw a sea of red on the sand, which was a myriad of red bugs, constantly moving towards one side.
Sometimes they emerge from the sand and are completely exposed.
"There's one over there." Zhang Siqiao also shouted.
We turned our heads to look at the other side, and there were also countless red bugs, which were constantly pounced in our direction, but the distance was still a little far.
At their speed, it will take about twenty minutes to reach us.
"Xiaowen, you have to know in your heart, otherwise, we may be eaten by that worm." Brother Long laughed dryly, and for the first time I heard him in his voice, there was a little horror.
If it's a large creature, it's okay to end its life in one bite, but if it's this kind of bug, it's really uncomfortable.
I also laughed dryly twice and said, "There should be no problem, but I really admire these ancients completely." ”
