We can see that a small red line is faintly visible on the neck of the sheep-headed man: it is the scar left by Tang Haitang's sleeve knife. In other words, the person in front of him is the spy of the Buddha's Hand Society!

The muzzle of the pistol in the agent's hand was still smoking, and I could notice his fierce eyes through the two holes in the sheep's head mask. The agent seemed to snort, and the pistol swirled in the palm of his hand before quickly slipping back into the bag hanging from his waist, and after another look at us, he quickly turned around and ran towards the end of the darkness.

The old bustard reacted from the surprise on his face and shouted, "Damn, this beast has already mixed in!" ”

So the old bustard instinctively reacted and wanted to chase it, but was stopped by Tang Haitang: "Don't chase!" I'm afraid it's a trap. ”

Tang Haitang explained that if the spy wanted to kill the four of us, he could hide behind his back and shoot us in the head quietly, and now he is probably deliberately selling a flaw, deliberately letting us chase after us, and we must not be fooled. What's more, the Buddha's Hand Society had already entered the demon mound four months ago, and he knew a little bit about this place, so it was too reckless to confront the spies head-to-head now.

The old bustard heard Tang Haitang say this and felt that it made sense, after all, "no matter how high the martial arts are, I am afraid of kitchen knives" This truth is known, and we are too full of entering the demon mound this time, and there is nothing to prepare, and the dry food in the backpack was wet and stinky when it fell into the pond, and it will take a longer time to explore this demon mound, and the top priority is to find the open space where the catfish demon said it was hiding, since the people of the Buddha's Hand Society have entered, Then there will be something more or less useful, and maybe we can use it.

So we didn't chase in the direction of the spy, but quickened our pace in the direction pointed by the catfish demon, everyone knows that if the spies meet us now, it will not be difficult for us to die, so at the moment we can only use the terrain to hide ourselves. I suddenly remembered ambush warfare in the Art of War, or so it was.

The bustard took the lead and led us forward. The direction that the catfish demon pointed to was in the southwest corner, leaning against the rock wall with six or seven holes on it, and the bottom of the rock wall was not solid, but there were many chaotic narrow holes, like several tunnels drilled out by earthworms, if there was no catfish demon to point out, we really didn't know which direction to take.

The entrance to the cave in the southwest corner is very hidden, and if you don't check it carefully, you don't know the existence of this place at all, which may be that the people of the Buddha's Hand Society entered the demon mound but didn't notice the existence of the catfish demon.

The height of the entrance to the cave was very narrow, and we all had to bow a little to keep going. The road in the cave is scattered and densely packed with stones, piled up all over the ground like glass ballast, and it feels a little rough to walk on.

The only kerosene lamp we had brought with us had been soaked in the water of the pool, which had caused the kerosene to be washed away, and the box of matches I was carrying was so damp that I couldn't draw a spark. But fortunately, the light in the cave is magically not so dim, and we can roughly see the outline of the cave.

The acupuncture doesn't seem to be very long, judging by the echo of our footsteps in this cave, it will probably take us another two or three minutes to come to the open space that the catfish demon said.

The old bustard is a stubble, and in the process of walking, he began to talk to us about the catfish demon before he tried his best to fight the catfish demon, and also self-styled a horizontal criticism of "heroic and good at fighting, fat man with fast eyes and hands, unarmed and witty to fight catfish monsters".

After listening to it, I silently recited several damn things in my heart, the so-called "people want faces and trees want bark", this dead fat man is really not modest, his mother is still unarmed, and indeed the shovel is copper not iron. If it hadn't been for Miss Tang's poison dart thrown over immediately, his little life would have been confessed in that stinky water a long time ago.

The bustard's shamelessness seems to be "carried away", and it may be that the stinky water that has choked into his brain has soaked into his brain. He would describe the place where he was excited, stomping his feet violently, rubbing the stones in the acupuncture points to a straight sound.

At this time, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be bright spots on the bustard's feet, at first I thought it was dazzling, but then the highlights became more and more starful, and then I found out that it was actually Mars! The feet of the old bustard were inexplicably rubbed in addition to the sparkling stars!

"Bustard?" I realized something was wrong and called out to him.

But the bustard continued to babble on with his eyebrows fluttering, not noticing what I was saying. It was at this time that more and more sparks finally gathered into a green flame and burned on the trouser legs of the bustard!

My face changed and I shouted, "Old bustard! Feet! ”

At this time, the bustard finally noticed that I was calling him, and looked down in a daze, only then did he feel some heat on his feet, and he immediately panicked when he saw the fire. The spread of the green fire was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had already burned to the popliteal position!

At the same time, Tang Haitang also quickly noticed the fire at the bustard's feet, and quickly stretched out his hand to pull the old bustard standing in front of him back, a stumbling block made it fall to the ground, and then brushed the sleeve knife, and quickly cut a cut on the pants of the bustard's thigh, and the other hand used force at the same time, directly ripped off the cloth forging that was burning under the fire and threw it aside.

The fire of the cloth forging was surprisingly large, and the green flames instantly "surrounded" it, and with a whistling sound, the cloth forging was quickly burned to ashes by the raging fire.

The old bustard's face palpitated, staring at the pile of ashes, and scolded in a low voice: "Grandma's, what kind of evil fire is this, and my half-pulled leg hair is almost burned out." ”

Uncle Bai and I have never seen this green flame, and it is the same as the ghost fire described in the ghost story, and the people who look at it are mad. I expected that the second half of the cave was not simple, and it seemed to be buried with that strange flame, which caused the person who stepped on it to set himself on fire.

Tang Haitang squatted down, looked at the acupuncture point in front of him, and then picked up a stone from the ground and threw it forward.

Da! Da! Da!

The stone jumped forward in the cavern in front of it as if it were a splash of water, and we could clearly see that every bump between the stone thief and the ground rubbed into a splash of fluorescent green sparks.

Tang Haitang stood up after seeing it, and she already knew what was going on, she explained: "There is a special phosphorus powder all over the acupuncture points in front, the ignition point is extremely low, and it will catch fire if it is slightly rubbed, and the phosphorus powder will be raised by stepping on, which will lead to the speed of burning. ”

"Didn't that catfish trick us into setting itself on fire?" I asked.

"It's not. The catfish demon was covered in slippery slime, and it couldn't rub against the phosphorus powder. ”

At this time, the old bustard suddenly shouted, and he seemed to notice something. We looked in the direction that the bustard said, and saw that on the acupuncture tunnel in front of us, there were dry bones lying there! The bones had been charred black, and the shape of the dry bones was extremely strange, twisted into a ball, and it looked like someone who had accidentally guessed the phosphorus powder and caused the fire to self-immolation. But the bustard's attention is not this, but the bronze sheep's head mask on the dry skull! The mask had also been blackened by the heat, but we could still clearly see the strange lines on it.

"It seems that the people of the Buddha's Hand Society have discovered this acupoint a long time ago." The old bustard lowered his head and said secretly.

I asked, "So how do we get there?" Or is it a turnaround? ”

The old bustard thought for a while and said, "If we turn back, we don't know the other roads, and we don't have edible dry food on our bodies, if we meet that spy again, we will suffer, now it's better to follow the path pointed out by the catfish demon to see if there are any materials left by the people before the Buddha's Hand Society." ”

I wondered, "Do you have a way to cross the road ahead?" It's all phosphor powder that catches fire when you rub it. ”

"Didn't Miss Tang say that the catfish can pass through this acupoint because it has a slippery skin, and it can't rub against the phosphorus powder on the ground."

I looked at him suspiciously, knowing what kind of bad ideas this guy had in his stomach.

The old bustard squinted with a smile and said with a smile: "Then let's peel off the slippery skin of that stinky fish, and we'll step on it and rub it over." ”
