Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Guy Who Broke the Iron Hook

The gerbils didn't move, they roared in their mouths, and kept grinding their claws on the stones, but they didn't dare to chase them.

I told everyone not to run away, these beasts seem to be scheming about something, and we should be fine if we hide in the ancient city. Chen Yun stopped, also looked back and saw the gerbil behind him, and said in some surprise, "Why don't they chase after them?" ”

Ge Zhuang stretched a big pie face, and said Big sister, what do you mean, you have to be run over and jump up and down, like a rabbit to be at ease? Chen Yun shook his head and said no, I just thought of another possibility, just now you used gasoline and almost didn't drive the gerbils down, but as soon as they entered the city, they immediately gave up the chase, which is not normal.

I added, "Maybe there's something in the city that scares them, higher up in the food chain, that's why they're ......."

After I finished speaking, everyone became more nervous, Ge Zhuang and Lao Zhong respectively held guns, scanning back and forth in the ancient city, and I ran for a while, my back was itchy and painful, so I found a place to sit down first.

Chen Yu helped me take off my shirt, revealing the gnawed flesh on my back, and his tone was shocked, saying that the bite force of these little things was so strong, if we hadn't been rescued in time, we might have turned into a pile of corpses under the moat by now.

The old scar hugged the gnawed ankle, and it hurt so much that he turned his tendons, saying grandma's, are these things mountain rats? I have it in my hometown, but I don't have it so crazy and dare to attack people directly.

Chen Yun asked if we could still hold on? I said it didn't matter, I had already taken antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs just now, the wound should not be infected, fortunately I ran fast enough, it was all flesh wounds, and I didn't gnaw into the bones.

Chen Yun tore off a few pieces of gauze, asked me and Lao Scar to deal with the wound again, just ran in a hurry, although they were injected with medicine, but the wound did not have time to be cleaned with disinfectant, Chen Yun helped me tear off the cotton cloth on my back, wiped it with a cotton swab dipped in medicinal wine, and then used a bandage to help me wrap it.

The old scar was injured on his foot and neck, and he could get it, so Chen Yun didn't help him, he sat on the ground and cleaned the wound with iodine wine. It may be that Chen Yun said too closely when he helped me clean the wound, which naturally caused Lu Chuan's dissatisfaction, he was yin and yang, and said Sima Nan, as for you, didn't you just give a few bites to the gerbil, do you want me to find a few * to serve you to work?

I don't like to hear this, I looked up and sneered, "If you think it doesn't matter, I'll catch a few of them and make love to you when I go back, and I'm sure to make you cool!" ”

"Don't make a noise!" Chen Yun patted me on the shoulder, saying that he didn't look at what place this was, and said that he didn't listen to the command and caused chaos to the team, but don't blame me for leaving people behind.

Lu Chuan's mouth shook twice, he didn't dare to speak again, and after bandaging the wound, my back was still hot and painful, and I asked how the old scar was? He said it's okay, I didn't get bitten a few bites, but I was injured in my foot, which might slow down everyone's march, or if you continue to walk forward, I'll slow down and then catch up?

I shook my head and disagreed, saying that this place is too dangerous, and leaving you here alone is no different from waiting to die, and you look outside, those gerbils haven't left yet, they are all waiting to come and eat human flesh.

Lu Chuan swept it with a flashlight, and the gerbils behind him were staring at us with blood crystal eyes, and he was furious in his heart, saying that he couldn't stay here, hurry up, who can guarantee that these beasts will not continue to chase?

I said that you have to pick a time to die, didn't you see that the old scar's foot was gnawed so badly? What's wrong with waiting?

Lu Chuan said fart, if you want to wait, just keep waiting, Ah Yun, let's go! Hurry up and find the tomb of the Emperor and leave this hellish place.

I was just about to say if you are so human? Old Scar reached out and grabbed my arm and shook it gently, then struggled to prop himself up, saying I'm fine, I won't drag you down, let's go.

Since even Lao Scar insisted like this, we didn't wait any longer, and we turned on the flashlights one after another and walked into this ancient city that had been closed for thousands of years.

The scale of the ancient city is very large, I have roughly measured it with my eyes, it should be enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, perhaps in the eyes of modern people, such a city can only be regarded as the size of a small town, but two thousand years ago in ancient times when materials and manpower were extremely scarce, it was not easy to build such a city.

The infrastructure inside the city is relatively simple, under the feet is a flat avenue paved with bluestone, which can accommodate more than a dozen people walking side by side at the same time, but the deeper you go, the narrower the road, and the two ends of the bluestone block are low bungalows, not majestic, and the houses built by Cubans are only about two meters high, and people may not be able to stretch their waists straight when they stand in them.

The house is made of unpolished stone, with no traces of cement – and of course, no cement could be made in ancient times. There are no walls and no foundations, and Cubans build houses very casually, nothing more than choosing a relatively flat place and then laying a few large stones, plus there is no risk of rain and water in the cave, so they don't even bother to plug the stone cracks.

The city has been ravaged for countless years, most of it has been destroyed, some places have collapsed, buried in yellow sand, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a sand dune or a rampart, although the view is full of such stone "houses", but we can see far away - because the houses are too low.

Ge Zhuang cautiously looked around with a shotgun, and every time he took two steps forward, he had to put a cushion on the ground with his toes, like a devil who walked into a minefield and was wading through the thunder, I said fat, you don't have to be so nervous with your feet, the ground is paved with bluestone Han bricks, there will be no traps.

Ge Zhuang relaxed at this time, leaned over and whispered, "Little pumpkin, it seems that the genetics of Cuba are not good, you see that this house is so short, and when you climb into bed at night to exercise with your daughter-in-law, you can't perform many postures, aren't you afraid of hitting the ceiling when they pour candles?" ”

I said, can you not open your mouth with a yellow cavity, in case "pouring some wax" was not popular in ancient times? He smashed his mouth, thought so, and nodded and said that the fat man also thought it was, maybe the men in ancient times were dwarfs, and they had to build a ladder to do that.

I almost laughed at the fat man, and said why should a man be short and a woman must be taller? Ge Zhuang smiled, his face shrunk, seeing that Chen Yun only shook his head, he was helpless to interrupt us, and before he could speak, there was a gunshot in front of him, mixed with the roar of the old bell,

"Who's it, get out!"

"What's wrong?" My face changed, and I hurriedly stopped joking with Ge Zhuang, turned my head and saw that Lao Zhong was half-kneeling, carrying the shotgun on his shoulder, raising the gun to make an aiming action, my heart sank, and I quickly pressed the folding crossbow on the machine, raised one arm, pressed the crossbow arrow on the other arm, and prepared to shoot.

Everyone stopped, holding their breath and carefully observing their surroundings.

The old Zhong in front of him kept raising his gun and aiming, and after not moving for a long time, Chen Yun leaned down and asked, "Brother Zhong, what's wrong?" ”

The old man didn't reply, saying that I had just seen a humanoid silhouette, and was lying on the roof to observe us, and maybe it was the guy who had bitten the iron hook before.
