Chapter 307: Molting and Born
It doesn't matter what kind of skin it is. As long as the fire is big enough. It will definitely be effective.
I told Shen Dali and Leng Yue my thoughts. Both thought they could give it a try.
Thereupon. Shen Dali took out the lighter. began to burn the human skin wrapped around the front of Cold Moon's iron chopsticks.
But. The human skin was covered with water droplets. A flame that relies only on a lighter simply cannot be lit. We wasted a lot of time. Only one piece of the man's skin was burned black. Other than that, there has been no progress.
I scratched my scalp. Seeing Zhang Yi and Qi Duo on the other side, it was becoming more and more dangerous. And the encirclement we are in is getting smaller and smaller. I know it goes on like this. I'm afraid it's not just Qi Duo and Zhang Yi. Even the three of us will be in big trouble.
Now is not the time to save. Whatever it is. As long as it is useful, it must be taken out and used.
I hurriedly said to Shen Dali: "Quick." Burning sticks. ”
Shen Dali hurriedly took off his backpack and rummaged through it. After looking for it twice, he looked up and said to me with a look of chagrin, "The incendiary sticks are all in the dead fat man's bag." Didn't you forget to bring it in? ”
"Then flares." I'm really anxious too. I can't take care of anything now. I just hope that the current predicament will be resolved as soon as possible.
Shen Dali hurriedly took out the flare and stuffed it into the launcher. Asked loudly and urgently: "Fifth brother." Where to hit. ”
I pointed to the wall of human skins and shouted, "Hit this thing underneath." ”
The flare we use is a magnesium flare. It mainly relies on the strong light emitted by magnesium combustion to play the role of lighting. Larger flares can illuminate the night as if it were day with only two or three flares.
But for ease of carrying. We were carrying small flares. The launcher is a bit larger than the pistol. Can be tucked into a backpack.
Shen Dali quickly stuffed the flare into the launcher. A shot aimed at the lower end of the human skin wall.
"Bang."
Flares shoot smoke from the flares. Crashing into a human skin wall. Directly rolled up the belt of the person who hit it.
The ignition point of magnesium is not high. Usually only 38 to 40 degrees Celsius. However, magnesium burns at very high temperatures. And it can burn in an underwater environment. It's not a problem to have a human skin that is stained with water.
Sure enough, it was as I expected. The human skin that encased the flare was in a dazzling glow. Soon it was burning. became a small fire.
The human skins around the fire don't know why. I didn't even hide. Instead, it looks like a moth to a fire. They even gave up the encirclement of us. Crowded towards the small fire.
The fire is getting bigger and bigger. Human skin is becoming less and less.
The low temperatures that used to plague us are gradually being replaced by high temperatures. It forced us to stay away from the fire. Prevent burns. It also prevents human skins from rushing out with flames to attack us.
My worries are unwarranted. We watched as countless human skins were charred into a mass. It's all curled and deformed. It became a mass of charred paste.
The air is filled with the aroma of barbecued meat. But I didn't have any appetite for the smell. I even feel a little nauseous.
Leng Yue looked at the human skin on the iron chopsticks. Found struggling. But he couldn't get down. Because it was before in order to prevent being thrown out by the cold moon. I actually used my limbs to tie a dead knot on the iron chopsticks.
I stepped forward. Insert the iron chisel between the two iron chopsticks. Push hard to the front to the head. It took a lot of effort to finally withdraw the human skin.
"Walk you." Shen Dali ran over and kicked it. Kicked the human skin I got from Cold Moon's iron chopsticks and flew into the fire not far away.
The current problem has been solved. We breathed a long sigh of relief. I don't want to make any memories of what just happened.
I asked Leng Yue, "Did you find the golden scepter?" ”
Leng Yue shook her head. Then he looked over to the crowded area. I don't know what he's thinking.
Black smoke billowed from the fire. We stay away. Continue looking for the stone bridge. Leng Yue ran to the area where the group was located again. Look around for the golden scepter.
Not much. There is progress on our side. Found the stone bridge. But Leng Yue didn't know where he went.
The group turned back at some point. He is bowing in the same direction. Perform the great gift of throwing yourself to the ground. It looks very weird.
And in the direction in which they bowed. It turned out to be Leng Yue with a puzzled face.
Leng Yue carried iron chopsticks. Look at the piece that fell to its knees in front of me. Obviously awkward. He glanced at us from afar. He looked at the people in front of him again. Cleared his throat. In a tentative tone, he said aloud, "That...... Flat. ”
The kneeling man on the ground paid no attention to him. Still kneeling. It's hard to guess what they're trying to do.
I waved at Leng Yue and shouted, "I didn't find the golden scepter." We found the stone bridge. ”
Shen Dali cooperated next to him and pointed to the stone bridge behind us. Urging loudly, "Hurry up." Now everyone is waiting for you. ”
Leng Yue nodded. Turned around and was about to leave. But suddenly it was as if he had been hit by something. The body flew out of thin air. After landing, he rolled a few laps. Almost fell off the platform.
I was shocked. Gaze at the place where Leng Yue had just stood. I saw a short, white-haired old man standing there at this time.
The white-haired old man carried a golden staff wrapped around snakes in his hand. He glanced at the cold moon who was rising from the ground. Looked at us again. Then sit down cross-legged. Hold the golden scepter upwards in the palms of both hands. Close your eyes and start chattering. I don't know what I'm talking about.
The people who were kneeling down finally had a move at this point. They got up from the ground. Learn the posture of a white-haired old man. Start meditating cross-legged. And follow along. I don't know what I'm reciting.
It sounds a bit like the scriptures. It's like mourning music that is played only when the dead are commemorated. We were all uncomfortable listening.
Leng Yue looked at the golden staff of the snake entanglement in the white-haired old man's hand. My eyes are almost straight.
If nothing else. This golden scepter of the snake is the last scepter we are looking for.
Leng Yue searched for a while before, but couldn't find it. I didn't expect to be carried by such a short white-haired old man.
Of course. I'm well aware. It could never have been an ordinary old man.
Who has ever seen an ordinary old man be able to punch Leng Yue and fly so far. I haven't seen it anyway.
Leng Yue should know very well what the old man is capable of. Don't dare to do it lightly. Only take a few steps forward. Staring at the old man for an opportunity.
Shen Dali said to me, "Fifth brother. I remembered. When we first came here. Doesn't everyone see a human face. What I saw. It's this little old man. The head full of white hair. I'm sure I'm not mistaken. ”
We were talking. But he saw the little old man raise the golden scepter in his hand. A word was shouted loudly. I don't know what it's shouting about.
The others shouted along with the old man. Then they all got up. He even began to undress in front of our eyes. You say shame is not ashamed.
But I know very well. Nothing will be as simple as we see on the surface.
Really. Those people continued to take off their clothes after they had finished undressing. Under our stunned gaze. Took off a piece of skin. And keep the face unchanged. Got out of the skin of a person who had just been taken off.
