Chapter 216: Flying Zombie
At first, only one coffin trembled, and then the two coffins adjacent to it also trembled.
Such tremors spread like a plague in the air for five or six meters, and it didn't take long for all the bronze coffins to begin to tremble violently, and the chains that connected them began to shake wildly at an extremely high frequency.
I couldn't hear the sound overhead, but I could probably guess that it was something inside the coffin that was struggling to break the lid.
Glancing at the coffin that had begun to tremble, I saw that the lid of the coffin was jumping back and forth, and I didn't know when it would be completely opened.
Looking at the scene in front of me, I suddenly became nervous, my heart began to beat violently, the speed of blood flow also increased, and the Qi field entrenched in my body also merged into the cells of my body at an even faster rate.
Qi Chang became weaker and weaker, Wu Lin and I gradually relaxed, and now I could barely lift the soles of my feet, so I pulled Wu Lin and stepped back little by little.
Wu Lin's palm pressed against my wrist, and the skin of the two of us seemed to be glued with super glue, and when I retreated, Wu Lin staggered after me.
I guess it's because my strength is much greater than his, so I can move in advance, but he still can't lift the soles of his feet well, but fortunately, after every stumble, he can find a way to stabilize his center of gravity and not fall headlong on the ground.
After retreating for more than ten meters in a row, although each lift became easier and easier, I was still so tired that I was panting violently, and my head was clouded, and I wanted to sleep.
At this time, I looked out of the cave entrance, and my view was obscured by the roof of the cave, and I could no longer see the iron chain and the bronze coffin, but only the straight ground and the occasional splash of water on the ground.
I don't know when the flashlights returned to normal, but when I could turn my head slightly, there were spots of light reflected on the stone walls on both sides of the cave, and all three flashlights were lit, and two beams hit the wall on the left, and one hit the right.
At that time, I could only move my feet and head, and I wanted to turn the flashlight and shoot a dozen lights behind me, but I couldn't rotate my wrists anyway.
As soon as I entered the cave, I noticed that it was dark thirty meters down the inside, so I couldn't be sure if I was in a deep cave or in a long, narrow tunnel.
After a brief glance at the spots of light that fell on the stone walls on the left and right, I quickly moved my gaze to the outside of the cave.
As soon as I rolled my eyes, I saw a turquoise thing fall from mid-air, and then I heard a loud "clang".
The bronze coffin lid, which was longer than the door panel, fell straight from a height of five or six meters, and rebounded to a height of more than half a meter after landing, and I was more than 20 meters away from it, and I could clearly see large pieces of patina splashing in the shock.
At this time, I felt Wu Lin's body tremble slightly, and he seemed to have regained a little bit of mobility, but it was still not enough to move the soles of his feet.
The lid of the coffin fell, and the contents of the coffin must have broken free.
I reckon that thing is probably a very powerful evil corpse. The classics of the old couple's family once said, "Into the cloud coffin, crush the corpse to suppress evil, there are many miasma inside, circle flying, confusion, reluctance, and so on." If you haven't read the whole volume, this sentence is really not easy to understand, which means that there is a special coffin called the cloud coffin, which can be used to suppress zombies and evil spirits, but most of the coffins contain miasma, and some people use it to captivate things like flying zombies, Gu worms, corpses, and ghosts.
Before our Zhou Dynasty, people in the industry used to call "Gu" "confused", and the classics said: "Gu, confused." At that time, Gu insects were not called Gu insects, they were called "bewildering insects".
And the so-called "cloud coffin" is this kind of coffin hanging in mid-air.
As the lid of the coffin fell, I sensed a very thick corpse gas outside the hole.
I haven't been in contact with many evil corpses, and I haven't seen flying zombies and corpses, but I know that if there is a corpse in each of the nine coffins, no, let alone nine coffins, but if a corpse jumps out of one of the coffins, Wu Lin and I will definitely not be able to live.
But if all the things in the nine coffins are frozen, Wu Lin and I don't seem to have a way to live.
Horizontal and vertical are a death!
I stared at the bronze coffin lid in the distance, my heart kept beating a drum, the speed of blood flow was a little faster, and the speed of Qi field consumption was also a little faster.
Now Wu Lin can also take a step, and I can barely control my footsteps.
While the things in the coffin had not jumped out, I tried my best to pull Wu Lin back, ten, twenty, thirty meters...... As soon as we entered the shadows deep in the cave, I felt a sudden relief in my left hand, and I was able to move my shoulder and elbow joints.
After this, the waist also feels slack.
I didn't dare to delay for a moment, twisted my waist with all my might, reached out, and quickly turned off the flashlight in my and Wu Lin's hands, the third flashlight is still pinned in my belt, my shoulders can only be rotated back at a small angle now, at that time I can feel that my fingers have touched the flashlight behind my waist, but this is already my limit, my fingers still can't touch the flashlight switch.
The things outside don't know when they will jump out of the coffin, and if they find light in the hole, then Wu Lin and I estimate that we will have to stop eating within two minutes.
Driven by a strong will to survive, I gritted my teeth and turned my shoulders little by little, and my fingers finally touched the flashlight switch, but maybe it was because I used up all my strength just by twisting my shoulder, and my fingers pressed on the switch, but I didn't have the strength to press it.
The switch seemed to have turned into a 10,000-pound gate at this time, and I couldn't shake it with my strength.
Bang dang!
There was another loud bang, and the lid of the second coffin fell to the ground with a bang.
After that, the bronze coffins suspended in mid-air were broken in turn, and the third and fourth coffin lids fell to the ground one after another, followed by the fifth and sixth coffins...... The ninth.
The ground outside the cave was constantly being hit, and I could feel the shaking of the ground as if I was standing so deep.
As early as when the lid of the fourth coffin was lowered, I had a vague guess that the contents of the nine coffins seemed to want to come down together, and in a sense, they might be one.
The reason why I think this way is because every time the coffin lid falls, the corpse qi coming from the outside is exactly the same regardless of purity and qi.
My head was covered with sweat, and I tried my best to press the tips of my fingers against the flashlight switch, and my steel teeth crushed, but I couldn't make the beam of light in the cave disappear.
Until the Qi field on my body was consumed a little more, and my shoulders were like lubricating oil, and they were loosened again.
After this, I first heard a dull crash from outside the cave, and then I twisted my shoulders quickly and finally pressed the flashlight switch.
The depths of the cave were plunged into complete darkness, but I could still see what was happening outside.
At the place where the lids of the nine coffins fell, there appeared nine emaciated figures covered in yellow cloths, these guys have very different proportions from normal people, their torsos are slightly shorter, but their limbs and fingers are very long, and each of them has a chest that rises and falls violently, as if they are breathing.
These things are the flying stiffs mentioned in the old family's classics.
In fact, this thing also has a very complicated scientific name, called "single-line floating corpse", I heard Yan Yanan say, the word "single" in these four words is read as "good" here, but she can't explain why she reads it like this.
However, in my understanding, flying zombies are zombies that can fly, but they don't have wings or feathers on their backs.
I'm still not sure if the zombie outside landed on the ground first, or if I turned off the flashlight first.
At this time, they seemed to have lost their minds, standing motionless, Wu Lin probably thought that this was an opportunity, so he moved his legs, intending to continue to retreat.
I quickly pulled him and motioned for him to stay.
Just kidding, if we make a little bit of noise at this point, we're really doomed.
The second master once said that looking at the warlocks in the entire industry, except for the three mountains standing at the top of the industry, and Chai Zongyuan, who passed away a year ago, almost no one can control the flying stiffness by themselves.
At that time, I asked the second master, can't he even win when he sees the flying zombie, the second master only said that he is not a warlock, and he can not kill the flying zombie. But if I'm not mistaken, when the second master said this, he didn't have a lot of confidence.
Can Wu Lin and I take out the flying zombie? It's hard to say.
Can Wu Lin and I kill nine flying zombies at once? There's nothing to talk about because that's just death.
The hearing of the flying stiff is more than twenty times that of humans, and although they are temporarily unable to move, since they can jump out of the bronze coffin, it means that at least some of the limbs have the ability to perceive, and no one can say whether this includes their ears.
I stared at the outside of the cave, Wu Lin didn't dare to move again, the two of us deliberately lowered the sound of breathing, but the rate of breathing became more and more rapid in the tension.
About a minute or so passed, one of the zombies suddenly shook its head and turned its face covered with yellow cloth to the entrance of the hole.
At that moment, I felt like my heart was going to freeze.
Fortunately, it just glanced quickly into the darkness of the cavern and turned its face elsewhere.
I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but I didn't dare to exhale this breath completely, so I could only breathe out little by little, wisps of breath from the corners of my mouth.
After the first zombie began to move, the others gradually regained their vitality and began to turn their heads to look around.
They seemed to be very unfamiliar with everything around them, and they just watched like this, and did not make any other moves for a long time.
One of them seemed to be interested in the hole, and quickly took a few steps towards the hole, even reaching the point where the forefoot was almost in the hole.
Wu Lin and I didn't dare to breathe, so we could only stare at the entrance of the cave.
The flying stiff glanced into the hole a few times, probably thinking that there was nothing particularly appealing to it, so it turned around and turned its face to its companion, but one of its feet still landed in the hole.
The extreme tension made my hands and feet a little cold, I knew that it should be considered a good phenomenon, at least I could feel the temperature on my hands and feet, it was estimated that it would not be long before the Qi field entrenched on me and Wu Lin would be completely exhausted.
