Chapter 3 White Fifty-Six: The Great Snake Infested
Mu Ji cautiously leaned over, looked through the hole in the wall and looked into the dark passage, and then frowned tightly: "The night owl spirit is protected by colorful tigers and wooden pythons, we have to be careful." ”
Li Huaishan interjected: "The colorful tiger has been killed by Gu Ruofei. ”
Mu Ji glanced at Li Huaishan and deliberately lowered his voice: "There may be more than one colorful tiger." ”
When he spoke, his tone and expression revealed a deep vigilance, as if he was afraid of alarming something deep in the dark tunnel.
I patted Li Huaishan on the shoulder and made a silent gesture to him, Li Huaishan glanced at me, but he still kept his mouth shut.
It was quiet, except for the sound of the wind on the other side of the abyss, and the faint crackling of torches.
I asked Mu Ji and Li Huaishan to retreat, and then broke the wall skin, and the hole in the stone wall was enlarged little by little, during which Mu Ji took the flashlight from my hand, and when the hole in the stone wall expanded enough for one person to walk through, he immediately turned off the flashlight, and the torch in Li Huaishan's hand, as well as the small black sky that bloomed with red and white light, became the only two light sources left around us.
As Yin Qi continued to flow out of the breach, Xiao Heitian became a little restless, and kept pacing around Mu Ji, and the light that bloomed from it was much weaker than before.
Mu Ji stroked Xiao Heitian's head and tried to calm it down, but it didn't look at Mu Ji, still holding its tail between its legs, walking around irritably, keeping its eyes fixed on the hole in the stone wall.
I pointed to the entrance of the cave, looked at Xiao Heitian, and then looked at Muji.
Mu Ji immediately understood what I meant, and he leaned down and whispered in Xiao Heitian's ear in a voice that no one could hear.
At this time, Xiao Heitian seemed to completely ignore Mu Ji's existence, it just stared at the hole, and its tail became tighter and tighter.
But when Mu Ji stood upright, Xiao Heitian took a step forward and jumped into the cave without hesitation.
There was a little black sky in front to provide lighting, and the three of us didn't delay any longer, and got into the hole one by one, and everyone was very careful in their movements, trying not to make a sound when they landed.
Xiao Heitian arched his back, lowered his head, and slowly walked towards the depths of the darkness, Mu Ji seemed to be a little worried about it, so he took a few quick steps and followed closely beside Xiao Heitian, and Li Huaishan and I followed him one after another about half a meter or so.
This dark passage seems to grow without bounds, and after walking for a long time, there is still darkness in front of which the quicksand of the Qi Sea cannot penetrate, and as it continues to go deeper, the yin qi that permeates the air becomes more and more dense.
The light on Xiao Heitian's body was already very weak, and only the torches were still burning vigorously.
In the flickering firelight, the shadows of several of us have become a little blurred, and the yin qi in the air has gradually taken on a black color visible to the naked eye, and the dark passage is filled with a kind of anxiety-making depression.
After all, the light on Xiao Heitian's body didn't last long, and half an hour after entering the dark passage, the red and white light on its body first flashed rapidly, and then completely extinguished.
When the light flickered, Muji quickly retreated to me, and without saying a word, snatched the torch directly from my hand.
I wondered what he was going to do, when I saw him put the torch on the back of the little black sky.
In the next moment, the flames on the torch suddenly became extremely vigorous, and a handful of crimson sparks spread out in the darkness, spreading rapidly along Xiao Heitian's back, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Heitian was wrapped in flames.
I frowned and stared at Mu Ji and Xiao Heitian, and I saw Mu Ji slowly straighten up and let out a long breath towards the darkness-covered front, and Xiao Heitian seemed to become more energetic after being wrapped in flames, it no longer clamped its tail tightly, it accelerated its pace, and its head was no longer close to the ground.
In the line of sight, a firedog with a firelight blooming just walked with idle steps, driving away the surrounding black shadows little by little.
It's been a year since I entered the industry, and I've seen a lot of ghosts and evil corpses, but when the scene of the dog entangled in fire was completely presented in front of me, I couldn't help but be shocked in my heart.
I can't imagine that in this world, there are creatures that are not afraid of flames.
Mu Ji held the torch and quickly followed behind Xiao Heitian, and Li Huaishan and I didn't dare to delay, and followed in three steps and two steps.
Before I could go far in the flame-covered little black sky, I suddenly heard a whirring sound above my head.
When I looked up, there was a large black stone wall overhead, and there was nothing.
But the sound continued, and everyone present stopped, and they all headed towards the official website on their heads.
Huhula, huhulala......
The sound was like a long snake moving rapidly along the ground, causing a long friction between its body and the ground, and also alarming the stones and gravel scattered on the ground.
Muji quickly approached me with a torch and whispered to me, "It's a python." ”
I glanced at him: "Wood python? ”
Muji nodded silently.
There should be a long tunnel above this dark passage, and the wooden python in Muji's mouth may be constantly moving in there at this time.
Knowing that it would soon appear in front of us, I didn't dare to slack off at all, and immediately took out the fangs and the Netherworld Treasure.
In fact, the Netherworld Treasure is not very lethal to the evil creatures that have physical objects, but I still took it out, just for some psychological comfort.
Li Huaishan pulled my arm and pointed to the darkness in front of the dark passage, meaning to ask me if I wanted to continue walking.
I shook my head: "Deal with the wood python first, don't go too deep, so as not to alarm the things pressed in the West Tomb and suffer the enemy on your back." ”
Only then did Li Huaishan quiet down and silently took out his flying claws.
I don't know how long the snake was, but the shattering sound above my head continued for a long time and didn't subside.
The longer it appeared, the more relaxed my heart became, at that time I felt that the situation was a little wrong, and glanced at Li Huaishan and Mu Ji respectively, and saw that under the light of the fire, the expressions of these two people were very relaxed, and Mu Ji even lowered his eyelids slightly, looking like he was about to fall asleep.
Seeing that the two of them looked like this, I couldn't care too much, and immediately shouted: "Be sober!" ”
My voice exploded in the long dark passage, and the echoes came in a row, and Li Huaishan and Mu Ji shrugged their shoulders at the same time, and finally came to their senses.
I patted Li Huaishan and glanced at Mu Ji again.
Li Huaishan immediately understood what I meant, hurried to Mu Ji's side, and carefully protected Mu Ji.
The thing above me seemed to hear my shouting, and suddenly stopped, and suddenly the dark passage became unusually quiet, only the echo still echoed slowly in this narrow space.
Until the echo also died down completely, and the thing above our heads began to move again.
This time, the shattering sound from the top of the tunnel became more intense, at first it was just restless over our heads, but it didn't take long for the sound source to move to the stone wall directly opposite, and then the sound moved underground.
I hurriedly pulled Mu Ji to my side, and Li Huaishan also let go of the flying claw and pointed the claw head to the ground.
Just when Mu Ji staggered to my side, there was a sudden "click" sound under the ground not far away, and before we could react to what was going on, there were large handfuls of gravel flying, and the firelight was disturbed by these crumbling gravels, and the shadows of several people began to sway left and right.
In a trance, I saw a huge snake's mouth rising from the ground, and the position where it appeared was exactly where Xiao Heitian stood.
Xiao Heitian's reaction was already very fast, and when the gravel just began to fly, it jumped violently, but even so, it was swallowed by the huge snake.
As soon as I saw Xiao Heitian being swallowed, Mu Ji lost his mind on the spot, and ran towards the snake's head with his legs, I forcibly pulled him and pulled him behind my back, and then cast a Tengyun step and rushed towards the big snake.
As soon as the serpent struck, it wanted to immediately retract into the ground, and when I rushed to it with one lunge, the snake's kiss sank almost completely into the ground.
Before I could start charging, Li Huaishan threw his flying claws very decisively, and after the sharp claws were embedded in the edge of the snake's kiss, Li Huaishan pulled it violently and pulled the huge snake out of the ground.
This snake ...... Not to mention that it weighs a few tons, how can it be pulled up so easily.
At this time, I heard Li Huaishan shouting: "This guy is an empty shell, very light!" ”
As soon as he said this, my heart relaxed a little, and the speed under my feet also accelerated, and the next moment, the snake's head rushed out of the ground along the force of the flying claws, and I also arrived in front of the snake's face, and I didn't talk nonsense at the moment, and immediately waved my arm and stabbed my teeth at the snake's eyes.
The tooth body bloomed with a very bright blue light in mid-air, and as soon as it came into contact with the snake eye, it immediately pierced the huge eyeball.
The eyes of the big snake seem to be a ball full of gas, and after being pierced by the fangs, not only does it deflate quickly, but you can also faintly hear the sound of air leakage.
Li Huaishan is right, this guy is indeed an empty shell.
At this moment, the snake's head suddenly trembled, and then it fell completely.
I was wondering what was going on, when I saw a large stream of yin qi spurting out from the wound on the snake's eye in the field of vision of the Qi Sea quicksand.
This Qi field was already so thick that it was unbelievable, and as soon as it appeared, wisps of black shadows immediately appeared in the firelight.
Yin Qi transforms!
The yin qi on the big snake's body actually had a specific form as soon as it floated out.
With Li Huaishan's cultivation, he definitely couldn't bear such a strong yin qi, so I hurriedly raised my neck and shouted: "Retreat!" ”
As I spoke, I pulled my hook off the serpent's face, and then pulled back with all my strength.
Muji's mind seemed to be still on Xiao Heitian, and when I retreated to him, he actually ran towards the big snake.
