Volume 1 The Corpse Maze Chapter 18 The Blue-tailed Ghost Scorpion
Suddenly, I heard the fat man shouting, "Damn, there's a ghost." Come and see, I'm dazzled by the fat man. The fat man's words suddenly exploded in this tomb, and my originally dizzy head instantly sobered up for most of the time, and when I turned over, I picked up the smokeless stove on the ground, walked to the fat man's side, and lifted the smokeless stove, and instantly illuminated most of the wall.
Qin Feng and Shunzi also followed, "Damn, what the hell, where the fuck is the door?" "Junko's voice trembled a little, I was carried in by the fat man just now, and I don't know the specific situation." Fatty, are you sure you just came in from here? "All four walls are the same here, and it's very possible to be wrong."
"Impossible, fat man, I am confused everywhere, but I know better than anyone else in the fight, how can I remember wrong." "Fat man remembers, we came in from this direction." Saying that, Qin Feng pointed to the cigarette butt in the lower left corner of the wall, "This is what the fat man just ran in and threw it, it is impossible to remember wrong." ”
Junko pulled out a three-edged thorn from behind his waist, held it in his backhand and slashed the wall in front of him a few times, Junko used great force, and a series of metal hits on the stone were heard. Junko turned to look at us, "The wall is real, at least a dozen centimeters, and you can't get out at all." ”
Qin Feng turned on the strong searchlight without a sound, twisted the aperture, turned the light to the brightest, and walked around the tomb, "It's all walls, there is no exit." ”
I secretly thought how possible, I can get in and out, how can the door disappear, I took the flashlight and began to shine carefully on each wall, the fat man and the straight also followed me to watch, this time we watched very seriously, for more than half an hour, after reading it, I sat on the ground with my ass, and now I understand the trembling mood of the straight just now. Every wall here is made of stone blocks more than ten centimeters thick, and the middle is poured with molten iron to build a seal, and most importantly, there are no doors on these walls at all, not even a trace of a door.
Junzi did not give up and took the military thorn and inserted it into the gap of the stone several times, and the tip of the military thorn collapsed, and only a few stone chips the size of soybean grains were pried off. Junko looked at the military thorn in his hand, threw it away, sat on the ground, lit a cigarette, took a deep puff of smoke and said, "I'm afraid we've met a ghost hitting the wall, otherwise how could such a big door disappear like this?" ”
"It's not a ghost hitting the wall, it's the mechanism of this tomb." Qin Feng thought for a long time and said, "It should be that we triggered some mechanism when we came in just now, and the stone gate was closed." The mechanisms in the tombs are generally very cleverly designed, and the ingenious machines that can be designed more than a thousand years ago can run for thousands of years. Although the ancient Shu Kingdom is old, the design style of this tomb is more like the skills of the Song Dynasty. ”
"You mean, this is the Song Tomb?" I asked Qin Feng in surprise, although I am quite good at antiques, but this is the first time to fight, and there is no dark weapon in this tomb, and I can't judge what age. "Not counting the Song tomb, the stone gate is indeed from the ancient Shu period, but this tomb is the structure of the Song tomb, I think, this is an ancient tomb transformed by later generations."
Remodel? Why renovate such an ancient tomb? It's been so long since I've been here, and I haven't seen a single artifact. Before I could think deeply, the smokeless stove in front of us began to flicker, I secretly screamed bad, I had been in for so long, the smokeless stove was almost unbearable, and before I could shout to the fat man to turn on the flashlight, the smokeless stove went out with a pop, and the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness, which made people chill.
"Fatty, hit the flashlight."
"Don't talk, look at the wall."
Without waiting for me to finish speaking, Qin Feng said in a low voice. I looked up at the walls around me, and I hadn't noticed the changes in the walls until I saw a cyan point of light slowly appear on the walls around us. At first, it was still one or two, but after more than ten seconds, the walls of the entire tomb were covered with this cyan point of light, and it was already dense and the city was already connected.
"Is this ......? Fluorescence? My scalp tingled for a while, and I quietly asked Qin Feng beside me.
Qin Feng made a gesture not to speak, "Listen, there is a voice." ”
I listened carefully again for a while, and at first I didn't hear anything, but after a while, I heard a series of crawling sounds, the sound of arthropod claws scratching the walls, gradually coming from one wall, and gradually spreading to the whole burial chamber, as if in a cocoon wrapped in insects, all around it, bursts of hair.
"Is this a fucking crab? Does the King of Ancient Shu want to invite us to eat hairy crabs? "Dead fatty, have you ever seen a cyan crab? Besides, the crabs in this tomb may have grown up eating corpses, can you eat them? ”
"Hey, you don't understand this, these crabs are all rectum, and they can't be absorbed when they are eaten."
"It's not a crab, it's, it's a blue-tailed ghost scorpion." Qin Feng suddenly interrupted me and the fat man, and said in a trembling voice. "This time we were tricked, this is not a burial chamber, this is a scorpion nest."
"What? This green and yoyo is full of scorpions? This.... Does this bite? ”
"It's normal not to eat people, but all of them here live in the corpse field I don't know how long, maybe they are fed with corpses, and I don't know if they bite the living or not."
Before Qin Feng could finish speaking, he saw the blue light on the four walls begin to flow to the ground like a stream of water, gradually enveloping us. "Hurry up and get on the torch, scorpions are afraid of fire." Qin Feng shouted, took out a fire fold from his bag and lit it, and in an instant, the blue light that spread over slowed down, and after a few seconds, the cyan wave began to surround us again. The flame of a fire fold was too faint to stop these scorpions at all.
The fat man took out the smokeless stove in his bag and lit it, took off his vest and wrapped it with gauze on the military thorn that Junzi had just thrown away, poured alcohol on it and lit it, the tomb suddenly lit up a lot, and when I saw the cyan wave in front of me clearly, my brain was in a daze. I saw that the cyan points of light were all scorpions' tail spines, and the scorpions were the size of palms, and they all surrounded us with their tail spines high. There was a large area of dense crowding, and scorpions crawled towards us one by one, and there were tens of thousands of them.
The fat man directly picked up the ordnance shovel and shot one that crawled over, but then another, two, dozens crawled towards us, and the fat man had already killed dozens of them, but he couldn't stop the wave of scorpions at all.
"You fucking figure it out, the scorpion is going to sting my ass." The fat man cursed behind him, and I saw that there were already a few flattened blue-tailed ghost scorpions hanging on his buttocks, and a dozen more were crawling up his feet.
