Scorpions, all scorpions, the endless sea of sand covered with death-like scorpions in golden armor, like a golden ocean, and we are trapped in a very small circle, like a small island in the ocean. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The "rustle" sound of them crawling on the sand, the "click" sound of their claws hitting the roof, and the sharp sound of the gold armor on their bodies rubbing against each other are mixed together, just like thousands of big cymbals in the ears, which is also mixed with the sound of war drums, the shouts of soldiers and the sound of weapons colliding, as if they have come to an ancient battlefield.

Our vision was blurred by the dazzling golden yellow, and we even felt dizzy, and we could only stare at our feet, not daring to look into the distance.

Xiao Zhang and I have been completely shocked by this huge formation, stunned there will not move, Lao Zhao has pulled us several times to break through, but we have been forced back by the rolling scorpion flow, the situation is very not optimistic.

Lao Zhao saw that he couldn't break through, so he quickly changed his mind, drew a circle on the ground with his feet, and said "dig", and the three of us took out the whirlwind shovel from the bag, and dug it up desperately with the fastest speed in our lives.

We saw that the sand and dust were flying, and we quickly dug a circular ravine in the sand, and the place where we stood now was more like a small island.

Lao Zhao asked us to take out some solid fuel from our bags, put it in this circular ravine, and poured some liquid fuel on it, and with a lighter, the flames "soared" and ignited, those scorpions seemed to see through our intentions, and frantically rushed up to try to extinguish the fire that was not very big with their bodies, and the scorpions on the roof took advantage of the terrain to launch a surprise attack on us.

A large number of scorpions swooped down from the roof, like a "scorpion rain", the three of us picked up shovels and played baseball to knock the scorpions that stayed in the air one by one, and the "clanging" sound of iron hitting was endless.

The fire finally ignited, forming a wall of fire, and the scorpions that led the charge were directly burned into a pile of charcoal, and a scorching smell gradually diffused from the wall of fire, and it was impossible to tell whether it smelled good or bad.

Those golden scorpions were finally intimidated by the power of the flames, and they did not dare to come forward in the slightest, but we did not dare to relax in the slightest, because although the scorpion attack on the surface of the sand was suspended, there were still many golden scorpions that kept flying down from the roofs and burrowing out of the sand under our feet, but these were enough for us.

The endless battle quickly consumed our physical strength, and I was not lightly injured, so I felt a little powerless after just fighting for a while, dizzy, almost fainting, Lao Zhao motioned for me to take a rest, he and Xiao Zhang can deal with it, although I really want to help, but according to the current physical condition, it can't help anything, so I put the backpack on the ground and sat on it, while resting while shoveling the scorpion that came out of the soil.

Lao Zhao directly screwed several sections of rebar pipes together, forming an iron rod more than one person long, and the dancing stick became a flower, forming a huge fan, spinning all the scorpions that fell down, and Xiao Zhang took my bronze sword and split the scorpions that came in from outside the fire wall in half.

The claws of these scorpions are so sharp that they can barely find a point of focus on the sand, and I don't know how they can move nimbly in this sea of sand, let alone how they can jump so high.

The situation at that time did not give me a chance to think about it at all, Rao was our tight defense, or there were many scorpions that fell on our heads, shoulders, and bodies, and they could tear off a large piece of flesh in one bite, and what was even more terrifying was that their thorns were still poisonous, and my body was stabbed a few times, and the wound immediately bulged high, followed by a burst of numbness, and I couldn't move anymore.

"I have two antidotes in my bag, I don't know if it works, so I can only try." Lao Zhao gritted his teeth to fight the pain, and said to Xiao Zhang, who was less injured, Xiao Zhang finally took out the antidote from the bag after touching it for a long time, threw one to me, and the other directly hit Lao Zhao, I saw that Lao Zhao's tense facial muscles were relaxed, and I knew that the antidote had worked, so I hurriedly tore open the envelope, pulled out the needle, and found the blood vessel to give myself an injection.

In fact, I was not afraid of injections, but the first time I gave myself a shot, I always felt a little awkward, but the situation at that time did not allow me to think about it more, after the injection, I got up directly from the ground, took off my clothes and began to beat the scorpions on Lao Zhao and Xiao Zhang.

These scorpions are very tenacious, as soon as they hit down, they immediately rushed back one after another, and finally we simply rolled our clothes into rolls, and after igniting them on the fire, the fire whip whipped on their bodies, those scorpions were really afraid of fire, and the fire whip immediately climbed down from our body as soon as it got close, and got into the sand, our clothes are all chemical fiber products, and after being ignited, a whip was drawn down and stuck to the body, and when it was withdrawn, it was very painful to stick off a layer of skin, but we would rather be whipped alive by this fire whip, I don't want to be bitten by those golden armor scorpions again.

At last, the scorpions retreated, and no longer attacked around the wall of fire, and fixed there like sculptures, but the obsidian-like little round eyes that shone black stared straight at us, and we felt a fur in our hearts, and the whole chamber was silent, but I knew that it was the peace of the moment before the storm.

These solid fuels are durable and can burn for up to three hours, but what do we do after three hours? We still have a lot of supplies in our backpacks, but how long will this fuel keep us burning?

The only thing we can do now is wait for those golden scorpions to abandon us, but it is almost impossible, because I know that their determination to eat us seems stronger than our belief in survival.

I looked at those scorpions, looked at their black eyes, and actually felt that these scorpions were thinking, how is this possible, these scorpions are just some very simple creatures, and the brain capacity is not very large, how can they think?

But this feeling lingered in my heart, maybe it was all just my fear, and now I know that we humans seem to be able to conquer everything, but when we are separated from technology, we really face other creatures in nature with our own strength, we still seem weak.

So what is the end of the food chain? Is it those poisonous insects and beasts? I don't think so, it's something at the top of the food chain that looks very insignificant.

For example, the golden armor scorpion here, the hamsters in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and even the ants, these things all have one thing in common, that is, the number is amazing, although one ant is insignificant, but a million ants, ten million ants, or even 100 million ants appear at the same time, it can cause a catastrophe, no matter how powerful the creature is in front of them.

This is the case with the desert marching ants and the robber ants of the Americas, these ants often appear in huge colonies of hundreds of millions, and are real super predators, sweeping in and out like a black tide, where no grass grows, and even the most powerful creatures will be eaten by them, and even the ground will be gnawed off by them.

Lao Zhao used to tell us the story of the desert marching ants when he was fighting in the desert, those marching ants quickly drowned the camels, people and everything they could drown, covering them, those things could only see a black outline, and after the past, there would be no bones left, people like Lao Zhao now feel terrified when they think about it, and even have nightmares at night, which can leave him a psychological shadow, the horror of these desert marching ants is really unimaginable.

We no longer speak, and even our minds no longer think about anything, just staring at those golden armor scorpions, our hearts were filled with a desperate emotion, the surrounding flames were "soaring" burning, scorching us to sweat, sweat wet our pants, but also wet a large piece of ground under our feet, we were very anxious, and then by this fire, I felt even more anxious, two lines of viscous blood slowly flowed down from my nostrils, "pop pop" dripping on the sand, slowly seeping down, But I'm not in the mood to rub it.

My heart began to have a grudge against Lao Zhao, since I went down to this tomb, I have been constantly frightened and injured, Lao Zhao, Lao Zhao, where are you coming to us to rob the tomb, you are obviously bringing us to death! You Zhao Ye is famous in the tomb robbery world, and you can be regarded as a well-known figure, there are so many junior brothers under him, why did you choose us, which family is this, which family is a brother!

A feeling of extreme thirst reached my brain, and I just felt a burning sensation in my throat, and I pulled out the kettle and poured it into a gulp, which was probably the last time I drank water.

Although the water in the pot has been roasted a little warm by the fire, it is still very cold for me, a mouthful of water, I can't help but shiver, and my brain is also a lot clearer in an instant, I heard Lao Zhao say that the death of tomb robbers is often not because of the zongzi and mechanism in the tomb, but because of suspicion and killing each other.

I looked at the scorpions again, maybe this is really their purpose, they have wolf-like tactics, that is, to use a person's inner fear, directly drive them crazy, make them lose their minds, collapse directly, hallucinate and even go directly to death, the most terrible thing in this world is the human heart.

A gunshot suddenly woke me up from my thoughts, and I saw that Xiao Zhang was constantly reloading, constantly pulling the trigger, and with each shot, he could directly lift a large number of scorpions into the river, revealing the dark red sand below, but after a while, more scorpions would be replenished.

"It's useless, save ammunition." Lao Zhao held Xiao Zhang's hand, I looked at Xiao Zhang, and saw that his face was covered with sweat, his eyes were blood-red, and the muscles on his face were also very distorted, obviously under great psychological pressure.

"I'm going to fight them!" A huge force suddenly burst out from Xiao Zhang's body, he said this sentence viciously, his tone was full of despair, Lao Zhao was caught off guard, one did not grasp Xiao Zhang out of the ring of fire, the scorpions in all directions immediately rushed up frantically, and instantly wrapped Xiao Zhang into a "golden man", Lao Zhao and I also rushed out of the circle of fire, grabbed Xiao Zhang and wanted to drag him back, but unexpectedly those scorpions' attack was too fierce, as soon as they rushed out, they were pounced down by thousands of scorpions, as if they had countless large pieces of iron pressed on their bodies, Can't get up anyway.

It seems that I am really going to die this time, although I often cheat on exams and do not care for public health, but I have never done anything in my life to lose my conscience, why is God so blind, let me end up with such a dead body, the sky has no eyes, the sky has no eyes!

The feeling of ten thousand poisons devouring my heart came from my bones, and just when I thought I was really going to die, I suddenly felt a sense of relief on my body, and when I was confused, I heard Xiao Zhang next to me ask: "Am I dead?" ”

When I got up and looked, I found that all the scorpions on my body had left, not only the scorpions on my body, but all the scorpions on the sand sea had fled from us quickly, dispersing like a tide, even faster than when I came, and had disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

"Haha......" Xiao Zhang's voice was already very hoarse, but he still had to keep laughing, desperate to survive, it was really the most gratifying thing in the world, at this moment his spirit of "sell well if you get cheap" flare up again, "I just said, to deal with this kind of guy, you should not be afraid of death to rush forward, you see, Zhang Ye, my heroic actions saved the lives of the three of us......"

Xiao Zhang's tone was very proud, and he didn't notice that Lao Zhao's brows were tightly wrinkled again.

I don't believe it at all, but those scorpions retreated because they were intimidated by Xiao Zhang's lifeless momentum, which made them spit out the food in their mouths, and the only possibility was that their lives were threatened, that is, there was something even more terrifying nearby.

Lao Zhao suddenly flew up and kicked Xiao Zhang's chest like lightning, Xiao Zhang was laughing proudly, he didn't react at all, he was kicked out, crossed a gorgeous curve in the air, rolled twice and then landed face down on the sand, eating a mouth full of fishy and smelly sand.

I was startled by Lao Zhao's sudden action, and then he grabbed my wrist and jumped back with me a few steps, this is Xiao Zhang has already climbed up from the ground, "Bah" spit out the blood sand eaten into his mouth, and pointed at Lao Zhao with his finger and was about to scold, only to see a flash of yellow light, just where he had just stood, a scorpion tail with the thickness of an arm and more than two meters long suddenly stabbed out.
