Chapter 397: Tallinn
Li Huaishan's mood seemed to have completely sunk, and he didn't pull his collar anymore on the way behind, staring straight ahead with a pair of eyes, and there was no sound every time the soles of his feet landed.
On the contrary, I was always a little uneasy, since the fragrance in the air faded a little, I always felt as if something was circling around us, but whether it was the area illuminated by the lights or the outline emerging from the quicksand of the Qi Sea, there were only large bare floor tiles, but in this way, my heart became more and more uneasy.
"Stone Tower." Li Huaishan whispered this in front, and I nodded and asked him to continue.
The area covered by the Qihai view was a little farther than the lights, and as early as a minute ago, I noticed a large number of tower-like buildings standing in front of me, but they were different from what I imagined, most of them were very short, and I guess when I got closer, the height was shoulder to shoulder.
I don't feel like these things are ordinary pagodas, more like ancient pagodas in temples, but even if they are, I've never seen such a low one.
When he got a little closer, Li Huaishan also muttered to himself: "Such a short tower? ”
"Don't talk, stay vigilant." I had to remind in the back that Li Huaishan grabbed a handful on his scalp and subconsciously touched the pistol on his waist.
I can also see that there should be a small Tallinn in front of me, there are many small stone towers around, and I can't guess the specific number for a while, and the center of gravity area surrounded by these small towers, there are a few large stones scattered on the ground, and in the field of vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea, you can vaguely see that there is a pit with a wide diameter on the ground there.
Dada......
Just as the two of us were standing in front of Tallinn, hesitating to go in and have a look, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the darkness ahead.
A figure emerged from behind the stone tower and quickly rushed towards the area where the boulders were scattered.
This guy should have been hiding motionless behind the tower just now, and I didn't even see him in the field of vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea.
Li Huaishan was stunned for a moment, and then chased after him with a flashlight, I felt that something was wrong, and I wanted to hold him, but he took a leap of Tengyun, ran very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he opened a distance of more than two meters from me.
At this time, it was too late to hold him, and I didn't dare to delay, so I followed with Tengyunbu.
The speed of the other party is not fast, but he is some distance away from us, and he can't catch up for a while, Li Huaishan was a little anxious, and immediately took out a pistol and fired a shot into the sky.
The gunshots in reality are far less exaggerated than in the movie, just a crisp "pop", but in this enclosed space, the tail note is extraordinarily long.
The figure in front of him didn't seem to hear anything, but still ran with his head down, and when he reached the big pit near the rocks, he plunged into the pit again, and there was a very dull sound.
Li Huaishan took out the flying claws while running, and when he was about to reach the vicinity of the big pit, he threw the claws out with his hand.
His flying claw kung fu was not superb, and the claw only fell into the pit, but when Li Huaishan quickly recovered the claw chain, he failed to hook anything.
My speed was a little faster, and when I rushed in front of Li Huaishan, I happened to be at the edge of the pit, Li Huaishan was about to look into the pit with his head around, and I grabbed his shoulder and asked him to retreat.
It was dark in the hole, and when I looked at the Qi Sea, I could see a man curled up inside, and next to him, there were some chains scattered around.
But in this extremely quiet environment, I couldn't hear the breathing from inside the pit, and I couldn't determine whether the contents were living or evil.
Li Huaishan raised his flashlight and let the light fall into the pit, I leaned my neck forward slightly, and followed the light, and saw that the person lying in the pit turned out to be a mosquito.
He didn't know where his jacket and leather pants had gone, and there wasn't much of the steel wire left around his body, and he was curled up there, motionless.
I took a closer look at the mosquito's chest, this guy's chest did not rise and fall at all, and when I looked at his eyelids, I saw that his eyes were closed, as if he was afraid of Li Huaishan's light, and as if he was dead.
Beside the mosquitoes, there was also a pile of iron chains scattered on the ground, and the rust on them was very heavy, and it looked like it was very old.
As the pungent scent that filled the air masked the other scents, I couldn't make out what age the chains came from.
Li Huaishan cautiously approached me, shook the flashlight, let the light sweep all over the mosquito's body, and then "tsk": "Dead?" ”
From the mosquito, I can't sense the corpse gas, and I can be sure that he is not a corpse, but I also can't feel the breath of life on his body, and I don't know whether he is alive or dead.
When I found him just now, he was still running between Tallinn, and he died in the blink of an eye? Unlikely.
I took out the Netherworld Tongbao with my left hand, held the gun in my right hand, and carefully looked at the mosquitoes, Li Huaishan pointed the flashlight at the mosquito's face, but his eyes swept nearby, he looked at the large stones next to the pit, and turned around and asked me: "These stones, can they be put together into a tower?" ”
I stared at the mosquito and nodded: "This pit is the foundation of the stone tower, but the contents inside may have broken free many years ago." ”
Just as I was about to squat down and pull the mosquito up, the mosquito suddenly opened its eyes, and its eyes quickly turned towards me, and then, as if it had been overpowered, its hands and feet shook violently, and it rushed out of the pit diagonally.
This guy's target was not me and Li Huaishan, after he rushed out, he rushed directly towards a stone tower on the left.
Li Huaishan was about to chase after him on the spot, but I pulled him back: "Wait first." ”
Li Huaishan: "Wait for him to run away!" ”
I pulled Li Huaishan's clothes: "The fragrance has become stronger." ”
Hearing me say this, Li Huaishan froze and shrugged his nose and took two breaths.
The moment before the mosquito opened its eyes, I felt a little tightness in my throat, and then I smelled an even more pungent aroma, which must have a great connection with the sudden awakening of the mosquito.
Li Huaishan asked me: "What should I do now, to chase or not to chase?" ”
"Keep your distance and follow along."
I loaded my pistol and felt in the direction of the mosquitoes.
Before entering the grave, the mosquito had been injured under my hands, and now my whole shoulder is broken, and my body is crooked when I run, and my steps are a little erratic, and my speed is very slow.
Li Huaishan and I have been keeping a distance of about five meters behind him, if the mosquito is still alive, he will definitely be able to hear our footsteps, but he has no intention of stopping, just keep running.
The pungent fragrance became more and more intense, and Li Huaishan and I had to erect the collar of our jackets to cover our noses and mouths, but even so, the fragrance kept lingering on our taste buds, and in the end, we couldn't feel the fragrance at all, and could only taste a kind of alcohol-like spiciness.
The smell also seemed to cause some discomfort to the mosquito, and his steps became more and more scattered, and his upper body was getting lower and lower.
After running for about 200 meters in this posture, the mosquito suddenly shrank and the whole person lay on the ground, and I was five meters away from him, and I found that he was shaking his shoulders and crying in a low voice.
Seeing mosquitoes like this, an extremely bad feeling suddenly floated in my heart, and I immediately pulled Li Huaishan to stop.
Because of the urgency, Li Huaishan stumbled on the spot, and then turned his head to me and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
I shushed and motioned for him to stop talking.
It was too dark around, and I didn't see the expression on Li Huaishan's face, but I remember that he leaned towards me, and then took out a flashlight and swept it forward.
The beam of light was like a straight pole, swinging back and forth in the darkness, and my eyes moved along with the light, and I could vaguely see a handful of small crystal particles floating in front of the mosquito.
Those particles were like scattered flowers of the Heavenly Maiden, hovering and stirring in the air, past the mosquitoes, and pounced on me and Li Huaishan.
I immediately reacted, these things are the kind of gravel we saw when we first entered the tomb, and immediately took off my backpack, took off my jacket and put it on Li Huaishan's head: "Cover it tightly, don't show your face!" ”
Li Huaishan also knew what was going on, and without a word of nonsense, he quickly wrapped his palms and face in my jacket.
This guy usually has a problem, the trouser legs of autumn pants never get into the socks, and the first time he was hit, it was because his ankles were exposed.
At this time, I didn't care if he was sweaty or not, and when Li Huaishan wrapped his face and hands, he quickly squatted down and tucked his autumn pants into his socks.
There was no wind around, but the gravel seemed to be driven by some kind of force, and it didn't take long for it to come over, and it all hit me and Li Huaishan.
The grit, all of which seemed to be alive, turned into my ears, and then I felt a dense tingling in my ear canal.
It was like a large seed gathering in my ears to take root and sprout in me.
Thanks to the ice silkworm Gu when I followed Hu Nanqian to the East China Sea back then, my blood is like a herbicide for plants and trees, it has a strong lethality, the sting lasted for a long time, and those gravels drilled out of my ears and eyes like an escape, and when they landed, I took a closer look, and very thin shoots really grew on them.
I suddenly remembered that in the classics of the family, it was said that after the corpse of Shezihua, its pollen was "like gravel and mirror, born when it met blood".
All this grit is the pollen of the Shezi flower!
Thinking of this, I immediately glanced at Li Huaishan, and saw that after a large amount of pollen pounced on him, it began to move slowly along his clothes, straight into his trouser waist.
Regardless of the pain in my cheeks being smashed by these hard pollen, I quickly took out two bottles of mineral water from the backpack on the ground, bit the mouth of the bottles, and threw them at Li Huaishan.
The pollen of Shezihua was afraid of clean water, and the three bottles of mineral water were all sprinkled on Li Huaishan's body, and these pollen suddenly seemed to be facing a great enemy, and immediately floated down from Li Huaishan's jacket.
