Chapter 12: The Underground Palace
This crazy idea just appeared in my mind, and even I myself was taken aback, but at this time, the entire hall of the Yao family ancestral hall was sinking and collapsing, and it was not the time to hesitate.
"We all hid in coffins." In the end, I made up my mind and told everyone.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, but no one was stupid, and they understood what I was thinking in an instant.
Everyone hid in the bronze coffin, and with the thickness and hardness of the coffin, even if the entire ancestral hall collapsed, we could save our lives, at most, we were temporarily buried alive under the ruins.
Anyway, it's almost dawn now, and the sound of the ancestral hall collapsing will soon attract the attention of the villagers of Yaojia Village, and when someone comes, remove the wooden beams and other things on the coffin, and all of us will naturally be saved.
But...... When the eyes fell on the bronze coffin, everyone was afraid.
"There's no time to hesitate now, either fight hard, or everyone will be buried alive, you guys figure it out for yourselves." Seeing that everyone was standing still, I spoke again, and walked towards the bronze coffin.
"Okay, then let's fight together, standing here horizontally and vertically is death, it's better to ask for that glimmer of life." Li Huiyan nodded and followed my footsteps.
Seeing this, the others also followed.
At this time, I was standing in front of the coffin, and the female corpse that had already climbed out of the coffin was standing upright on the lid of the coffin, looking at all of us condescendingly.
The female corpse's hands were slightly raised, and the two-inch-long jet-black nails looked particularly shocking, and no one would doubt that if these nails were lightly scratched, the skin would be opened.
"Do you want to? Grab it......" I held the bronze box in my hand high and shook it at the female corpse, saying something provocative about her, regardless of whether she understood it or not.
As I was doing this, I raised my hand at Li Huiyan and the others, who immediately understood what I meant, walked away from my side, and walked around the back of the coffin.
As expected, as soon as the female corpse saw the bronze box I was holding in my hand, she immediately let out an unpleasant and piercing scream from her mouth, and kicked hard under her feet, and in an instant it was like an arrow from a string coming towards the place where I was.
Although I had been prepared, I was startled by the sudden movement of the female corpse. Seeing the female corpse crawl out of the bronze coffin was so slow that I felt a little contempt for her.
At the moment when the female corpse flew in, I crouched down and rolled twice to the place where the coffin was. At the same time, he shouted at Li Huiyan and the others: "Hurry, there's no time, everyone goes into the coffin." ”
In fact, there is no need for me to remind me of anything, as soon as the female corpse's feet left the bronze coffin, Xu Hao, Lu Cheng, and Qin Dong had already taken the lead in climbing up the coffin, and then turned around and pulled Li Huiyan and Xiao Yue up.
As soon as I turned my head to look at everyone, I suddenly felt a gust of wind behind me, and I was instantly chilled all over my body, and I didn't even want to roll on the ground again.
With a bang, two abnormally hard arms collided with the bronze coffin behind me, and the piercing scream directly shook my ears with severe pain, as if the eardrums were shattered at that moment.
Seeing that the attack was unsuccessful, the female corpse withdrew her arms again, leaving ten shocking holes in the wall of the bronze coffin. All my attention was fixed on the female corpse, and I happened to see the small hole left by the female corpse after retracting her arms, and my face suddenly turned a little pale.
If I had been a little late just now, I would have been afraid that my back would have been pierced by the woman's iron-hard arm.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but be afraid for a while, and I didn't dare to relax in the slightest.
The female corpse failed to make two shots, and seemed to become a little angry, she looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, and the long hair draped on her shoulders was windless and automatic, and it slowly floated up.
When she looked at me again, I noticed that her empty eyes had miraculously had pupils, and unlike ordinary people, her eyes took on an eerie crimson color.
In addition, the female corpse's nails were once again more than an inch long, and they looked much harder than before, like sharp blades.
"Zhang Sansan, hurry up." Everyone had already arrived in the bronze coffin, and only Li Huiyan was still standing on the lid of the coffin, shouting to me in a very anxious tone.
Hearing Li Huiyan's voice, I knew that I couldn't continue to consume it, and if I continued to waste time, even if I wasn't killed by the female corpse, I would be buried alive by the collapsed wooden beams of the ancestral hall.
Seeing that the female corpse had missed a blow and wanted to pounce on me again, I threw the bronze box in my hand to the left corner of the ancestral hall with all my might.
Throwing away the bronze box, I didn't dare to stop for the slightest, turned around and ran in the direction of the coffin.
Seeing that the bronze box was thrown out by me, the female corpse monster who was about to pounce on me screamed, and the figure turned to the place where the box fell.
"Hurry up, I'll pull you." Li Huiyan squatted down and said to me.
"Hmm." I answered, jumped hard and grabbed Li Huiyan's hand, and soon climbed onto the coffin.
There was a loud bang, and less than two seconds after I had climbed into the coffin, a huge ancestral hall beam fell down with countless dust and rubble from the place where I had been standing.
Seeing this scene, I broke out in a cold sweat all over my body, and I suddenly felt that I had picked up a life from the hands of Lord Yama, so dangerous!
However, the danger was still not over, and I did not have the leisure to enjoy these spectacles.
The female corpse was castrated very quickly, and in an instant, she arrived at the corner of the ancestral hall and took the bronze box that had not yet fallen to the ground in her hand. The female corpse turned her head, her crimson eyes looked at the coffin where Li Huiyan and I were standing again, and it seemed that she did not intend to let us go.
"Go down!" Seeing that the female corpse wanted to attack us again, I hurriedly said to Li Huiyan.
When Li Huiyan heard this, she also understood the seriousness of the matter, and immediately went down to the coffin, and I jumped in after him.
Entering the coffin, I sat down without saying a word, and the strength of my whole body seemed to be drained in an instant, and I felt that my whole body was weak, and even moving my fingers seemed extremely difficult.
Although it seems to others that I had not been dealing with the female corpse for a long time, and it did not take more than two minutes before and after. But only I knew that for more than a minute, my muscles were tense and my nerves were in a state of extreme tension.
At this moment, it suddenly relaxed, and the previous reaction was manifested. I leaned against the wall of the bronze coffin, and there was a cold slimy feeling behind me, and in just over a minute, the clothes on my back were completely soaked with cold sweat.
And just as the figures of Li Huiyan and I disappeared on top of the coffin, the female corpse in the ancestral hall let out a sharp roar again, and then the bronze coffin shook violently, as if it had moved a lot of angles clockwise.
When I looked again, there were ten small black holes in the wall of the bronze coffin, which were obviously pierced by the female corpse's fingernails.
Seeing this, everyone gasped.
I cursed in my heart, could this female corpse be beaten with iron, even her nails were so hard.
Although the space inside the coffin is not small, it is more than enough to accommodate the six of us, but because the lid on one end of the coffin has been removed by us before, we are all concentrated on the end of the coffin covered by the lid at this moment, which seems to be a little crowded.
I glanced up at the lid of the coffin, a little worried that the woman's body would come in through the gap left in the coffin. But at this time, we were all in the coffin, and the height of the coffin was at least two meters, and the lid was so heavy that there was obviously no way to close it again.
"Be careful, don't lean your body against the coffin." My gaze fell on the ten orifices again, and I reminded everyone with a serious expression.
However, no sooner had I finished speaking than there was another violent vibration from the bronze coffin, which was more than the previous one.
"Ah......h
At the same time as the coffin shook, Xiao Yue, who was squatting in the innermost part of the coffin, let out a terrible scream.
I was shocked, and the secret channel was still too late.
As soon as I wanted to get up to see Xiao Yue's situation, the entire bronze coffin suddenly swayed violently, and then sank down, and there was the sound of countless wooden beams falling to the ground and breaking in my ears.
Rumble......
The bronze coffin shook violently and sank for I don't know how long, and I can't remember how many times my head was hit the coffin wall before the coffin finally regained its calm.
When I regained my bodily autonomy, I found myself lying on the ground, and the huge bronze coffin had rolled down four or five feet away from me.
There was a slight pain in my lower body, and I felt that most of my legs were still buried in a lot of rubble, and the flashlight I was holding had already rolled to the side.
I picked up a flashlight and looked around, only to see that there were eight huge stone pillars as thick as two people hugging each other, supporting the entire underground space, and there were some murals on the stone pillars and stone walls that had long been damaged.
It turned out to be a spacious underground palace.
"Xiao Yue ......" After calming down, I immediately remembered Xiao Yue and shouted loudly.
Hearing any answer, all that came to my ears was the loud echo of the underground palace. My heart sank, and a very bad premonition came over me.
With Xiao Yue's free and outgoing personality, under normal circumstances, if I shouted her so loudly, it was absolutely impossible for her to have no reaction. Thinking of the scream that Xiao Yue made in the coffin before, I had a bad premonition in my heart.
I hurriedly took a picture of it and looked around, only to find that not far from me, Li Huiyan and Xiao Yue were lying on the ground as if they were asleep.
The most shocking thing is that under Xiao Yue's back, there is a blackened blood stain.
The scene in front of me made me a little confused, Xu Hao, Qin Dong, Lu Cheng and the three of them disappeared, and Li Huiyan and Xiao Yue and I didn't know where they were after being thrown out of the coffin, but what worried me the most was not our current situation, but Xiao Yue's injuries.
When I hurriedly ran over and turned Xiao Yue's body over, I saw that there were five unusually shocking holes in Xiao Yue's back, which were constantly bleeding out, and the closer I got to the wound, the more dark black the color of the blood appeared.
Ptomaine!
The moment I saw these five small holes, I immediately saw that this was caused by the female corpse's nails penetrating the bronze coffin, and the blood shed by Xiao Yue showed this strange black and red color, which should have been poisoned by the legendary corpse.
I've heard of corpse poison many times before, but it's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes, and I don't know what to do with it.
At this moment, a muttering sound came into her ears, and Li Huiyan, who had fainted, actually woke up slowly with her head covered at this time.
