Chapter 80 - Harassing Calls 25
Luo Zhen also showed a hesitant look when he heard this, he looked at Tang Luozi, and said tentatively: "Old man, why don't we go back?" β
Tang Lizi immediately shook his head: "Don't go back!" After speaking, he looked up at the man-eating vine bud, looked around again, and then walked to a huge red stone pillar engraved with a psychic spell beside him, and held it with both hands to try to climb up, as if he really had the intention of climbing to the top along the pillar.
"Wait, old man, it's too dangerous!" Luo Zhen hugged his waist, "If you fall down halfway up, you will fall directly into the pit!" β
Tang Breakzi turned his head to look at him and jumped down again, sighing: "To be honest, I don't want to climb either, the old man is old, and his skills are not as good as before, if the third baby is here, maybe he can really go up!" β
Luo Zhen rolled his eyes and analyzed: "There is no light and no small animals in this place, how can ordinary plants survive?" In my opinion, this strange vine must have been modified by wizards, and we can no longer act according to common sense. Old man, I remember you said that you can't see open flames in this tomb, otherwise something will happen, right? β
Tang Breaker nodded and replied, "Yes! For example, before, if you hadn't ignited the Seven Star Pillars, the oil secreted by the mutated blood thread vine would not have volatilized, nor would it attract a large number of golden light insects, let alone wake up the long-dormant Zha Hu Chahn. β
"I see!" Luo Zhen suddenly realized, "I said, how can you light a fire and give birth to a big centipede, this is too hasty!" After that, he looked at Tang Kuozi with a suspicious face, "So I think you and the wizard are in the same group!" β
"Alas," Tang Xuanzi suddenly sighed, "This involves some secrets of the Immortal Village, I can't reveal too much, in short, you just need to keep this in mind!" β
Luo Zhen smiled slyly, "Okay old man, I don't want to peek into the secrets here, I just think we can be inspired by this." He shook the torch in his hand as he spoke, "Since fire is the key to activating this evil tomb, it is likely to be the key to activating the mechanism!" β
Tang Xiaozi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then nodded slightly, "It's a little reasonable, what do you think, baby, let's hear it." β
"At first, I thought about whether to throw a torch into the burial pit," Luo Zhen replied slowly, looking at the deep pit at his feet, "but when I think about it, I don't think it's appropriate." First of all, since this is a burial pit, it means that the things in the pit are all buried by the tomb owner, if we really burn it, then the wizard should be so angry that he jumped out of the tomb, how can he still open the mechanism for us? He pinched his chin as he spoke, and when he saw Tang Breaking listening carefully, he continued, "Secondly, if this pit is really ignited, then we will also become roast fat sheep on it, wouldn't it be even more difficult to pass?" So, it's definitely not that simple and crude! β
"What else are you selling," Tang Kuozi glared at Luo Zhen, "Let's just say it, what do you want to do?" β
Luo Zhen pointed to the five man-eating buds hanging above his head with a torch, "I think the key is still there, it must be"
"Zhenwazi, don't you want to burn this man-eating vine?!" Tang Xiaozi was surprised, "Then you have to climb up to get it?" And if the roof burns down and falls, won't we have to suffer too? β
"No," Luo Zhen shook his head like a rattle, "smoke, smoke!" Let's smoke the buds, maybe it will work! β
Tang Xuanzi suddenly said, "This method can be tried, and there is no danger." As he spoke, he stretched the torch out of the pit, observed it, and frowned, "It's just that I can't reach this length now, and I can't smoke those buds." But it's not a big deal, I'll go get a few more torches and put them together! However," Tang said worriedly, "the biggest problem is that we don't have cigarettes now!" β
Luo Zhen cautiously walked to the edge of the burial pit, squatted down and signaled Tang Kuozi with a torch, "I just found that the edge of this pit is covered with this blue plant, a bit like moss, and like some kind of fungus." If you put this thing on a torch, it will definitely smoke. β
Tang Kuozi hurriedly walked to his side and squatted down, carefully observed the kind of grass that Luo Zhen said, nodded and said, "Well, it looks wet, if you burn it, there will definitely be smoke." It's just that I don't know if this thing is poisonous or not, I've never seen it, it's weird! β
"Let's try to get a little burn first and see if there is any discomfort. Avoid it, old man! Luo Zhen said and motioned for Tang to retreat, and he used his torch to light the edges of those blue plants, while leaning back slightly, and his nose began to sniff.
Sure enough, a circle of gold immediately appeared where the flames came into contact with the blue grass, rippling like water waves, enveloping a large area of blue grass that quickly decayed and turned gray, and then a strange dark blue smoke appeared.
Luo Zhen still instinctively covered his nose and immediately took the torch away, and the person also took several steps back. After all, it is not clear what the nature of this blue smoke is, or it is better to minimize inhalation.
Tang Breakzi also immediately grabbed him, and both of them retreated to the entrance of the passage. Tang Kuozi couldn't help but blame Luo Zhen and said: "You baby is too fast, and you don't discuss with me, what if this smoke is really poisonous?" β
Luo Zhen let go of the hand covering his nose, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, took a few deep breaths, and then forced a smile: "Old man, I don't have any skills, and I can't fight with insects like you do, so it's better for me to test the poison." He blinked his eyes and moved twice at the same time, as if to feel if there was any discomfort in his body, and continued: "Besides, I actually really think that this cigarette should not be poisonous. After all, if the wizard wants to be resurrected, what he needs is to check the fire Hucha to help him suck people's blood, and wouldn't it be too wasteful to poison people to death in this way! β
"Nothing uncomfortable, right?" Tang Xiaozi asked with concern, "I can't see that your baby is quite clever, and you can still think of this point!" β
Luo Zhen shook his head, "It's okay, that smoke is not poisonous." We can get smoked buds! As he spoke, he walked back to the edge of the burial pit, began to carefully pull the blue grass off the edge of the cliff, and said to Tang Kuozi: "Old man, don't you know, it's really not easy to do collection!" Those who owe money are uncles, not to mention that they owe not my money, but the money of our company's customers, which can really be regarded as uncles! If you want to get money out of these people, if you are not clever, let alone 500,000 yuan, it will be difficult to 500,000 yuan, or I will buy my life like this, as for being deceived by Tian Xiaogang's turtle grandson to this ghost place to suffer? β
Tang Luozi also stepped forward to help and comforted him: "Baby, I know it's not easy for you!" Not to mention 500,000, 100,000 is an astronomical amount that people like us can't even think of, if it weren't for the happiness of my son in the future, in order to inherit the family of our old Tang family, how could I risk doing this kind of stealing chickens and touching dogs, I really lost the face of my ancestors! I dragged you in this time, I don't want to go to the old man, don't worry, I will definitely take you out if I fight this old bone! β
Luo Zhen watched Tang Breakzi squeeze out a smile, and the two stopped talking, only quickly picking down patches of blue grass.
"Almost, I'll go get some torches!" Tang Breaking said and ran back to the passage, Luo Zhen glanced at his back, and then began to pick up the blue grass on the ground and knead it into a ball with his hands, and then flattened it into a cotton cloth.
After a while, Tang Breakzi really came back with a lot of torches. I saw him take the rope he carried with him from his waist and tie the four torches firmly into one. Then Luo Zhen fixed the finished bluegrass piece to the top torch, and Tang Breaking wanted to put the long torch close to the torch in Luo Zhen's hand and ignite it. Luo Zhen moved the torch away and said to Tang Zhenziββ
"Wait a minute, old man, which one are we going to smoke?" He looked at the five buds hanging above his head, "There are five of them, you have to choose one?" β
Tang Breakzi was stunned, "Any one is fine, isn't it all the same?" β
"According to the urine nature of the tomb mechanism, you can't choose it casually," Luo Zhen looked solemn, "There must be something particular, maybe the wrong choice is a death!" β
