Chapter 18: Corpse Gu Centipede
Wu Zhiyuan saw that it was not good, if it continued like this, Du Yuesheng would definitely be strangled to death by the female corpse, so he endured the pain and got up, and was about to hit the female corpse hard, but the female corpse threw Du Yuesheng's body at him like splashing water. Wu Zhiyuan was defenseless, he was hit by Du Yuesheng's body, screamed and fell on his back, and Du Yuesheng then pressed heavily on his body.
Before the two of them could let out a painful moan, the female corpse twisted her body and came towards them step by step, she moved as if she was jumping, and as if she was moving, the silver chain hanging from the phoenix crown above her head struck left and right with the steps, making a "clanging" sound, adding a bit of weirdness to this terrifying tomb.
Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng sat on the ground and kept retreating, while the female corpse approached step by step, until their backs were pressed against the cold wall, and the two knew that there was no way to retreat. Wu Zhiyuan heard Du Yuesheng's teeth chatter, and his own legs trembled, and he even felt difficult to breathe.
When the female corpse saw that they had retreated to the corner, she let out a terrible ghostly cry, stretched out her hands, and pounced on them. If these ghost claws are inserted into the neck, they will not want to live. Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng were both smashed, and the bones in their bodies seemed to be all dislocated, and they had no power to fight back.
Suddenly, with a "bang", an object slipped out of Wu Zhiyuan's arms and fell on the cold ground. Wu Zhiyuan fixed his eyes and saw that it was the bronze mirror that Du Yuesheng gave him.
In the crisis, he didn't think much about it, Wu Zhiyuan grabbed the bronze mirror with both hands, like grasping a life-saving straw, and blocked it towards the ghost hand caught by the female corpse.
At this moment of lightning, a blue fluorescence suddenly shot out from the bronze mirror, which happened to shine on the face of the female corpse. The blue fluorescent light was so strong that the entire burial chamber was illuminated blue.
The female corpse let out a strange "creaking" sound in her throat, and she fell to the ground on her back, the skin on her face instantly festered, and layers of white foam appeared, accompanied by bursts of foul smell, Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng hurriedly covered their noses.
The scene in front of them made the two sigh, especially Wu Zhiyuan, who didn't understand the reason until this moment, looking at the bronze mirror in his hand, secretly glad that he didn't throw it away in order to put more gold, silver and jewelry.
The two breathed a sigh of relief and helped each other to stand up, only to see the female corpse fall to the ground, and white foam continued to emerge from her face, making a "whoosh" sound.
Suddenly, the female corpse's mouth opened, Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng couldn't help but be startled, and the heart that had just fallen jumped to their throats again, only to see a black thing crawling out of the female corpse's mouth, which poked out two long whiskers, looked left and right at the female corpse's mouth, and then crawled out of the mouth without any avoidance.
It's a centipede!
The centipede was about a meter long, its torso was as thick as a three-year-old child's arm, its body was fat, its whole body was black and shiny, and there were about two hundred pairs of feet.
Wu Zhiyuan, who grew up in a mountain village, has seen centipedes more than once, but he has never seen such a big centipede, and he still crawled out of the body of the female corpse, his heart was suddenly hairy, and his scalp was numb for a while. Du Yuesheng was even more terrified, and hurriedly hid behind Wu Zhiyuan, for him, the centipede in front of him was no longer an insect, but a strange beast.
The black centipede's long beard suddenly stopped visiting, and it stood still a meter away in front of Wu Zhiyuan, but in the blink of an eye, the black centipede made another "purring" sound, and the upper half of its body shook violently, and it actually stood up! It looks like an enraged cobra with its neck raised.
Wu Zhiyuan was horrified and couldn't help but exclaim. He had never heard of a centipede making a "purring" sound, let alone a centipede that would raise its neck in an attacking stance.
But the black centipede in front of him really impacted his hearing and vision, which also showed that this black centipede was by no means comparable to ordinary centipedes.
Wu Zhiyuan looked around, except for the bronze mirror in his hand, there was nothing that could be used to deal with this poisonous insect, but the bronze mirror obviously had no effect on this black centipede, because at this moment Wu Zhiyuan was subconsciously aiming the bronze mirror at the poisonous insect in front of him, and the bronze mirror did not react.
Wu Zhiyuan suddenly realized that this bronze mirror is a Taoist magic weapon, which will only have a restraining effect on ghosts, demons, corpses, and demons, and has no mana against poisonous insects and beasts.
However, the black centipede in front of him had already made an attacking posture, and if he didn't want to deal with it, he was afraid that Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng would be sucked by this huge poisonous insect. The centipede is extremely poisonous, located at the top of the five poisons, its ferocity and cruelty are also the best among the five poisons, the smaller centipede preys on insects for a living, and the slightly larger centipede even the snake will become its prey object. If the centipede in front of him can suck people up, Wu Zhiyuan absolutely believes it.
"Snorr", the upper body of the black centipede kept shaking, as if looking for the right time to attack it unprepared.
The situation was urgent, Wu Zhiyuan glanced to the side, and under the dim candlelight, a blood-red shadow entered his sight.
"The bloody knife!" Wu Zhiyuan's heart swelled with hope, the blood knife was a few meters away on his right hand, as long as he could get the extremely sharp blood knife, he should be able to win against the black centipede.
At this moment, the black centipede figure shrank back, and suddenly ejected, and its body, which was more than one meter long, shot out like a black lightning, flying straight towards Wu Zhiyuan.
"Hide!" Wu Zhiyuan shouted, rolled on the spot, and went to grab the blood knife.
Wu Zhiyuan's shout was said to Du Yuesheng, who was hiding behind Wu Zhiyuan at this time, looking at this creepy black centipede in fear. For Du Yuesheng, he wouldn't blink his eyes when fighting on the streets, slashing and killing, but the centipede with many legs and legs in front of him made him terrified. From a medical point of view, Du Yuesheng's symptoms are called dense phobias.
When the black centipede's figure suddenly shrank back, Du Yuesheng had already raised his vigilance, so before the black centipede's body ejected, he suddenly flashed to the other side. Although the black centipede's attack speed was fast, it was not faster than Wu Zhiyuan's early reaction after all, so it was obvious that its blow must be missed.
Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng both thought so, but they were careless that this was not an ordinary mountain centipede, but a Gu worm that had undergone corpse Gu training and had absorbed the yin qi of female corpses for more than ten hundred years. The so-called corpse Gu is to put centipedes, poisonous snakes, toads, geckos and scorpions in the same vessel, let them kill each other, gnaw and eat, after seven or forty-nine days, take out the remaining survivors after the most demurrage, and then put them into the corpse that has just died, let it absorb the nutrients of the corpse for a living, continue to accumulate yin qi, and finally break out of the Gu worm.
Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng rolled to both sides respectively, but the black centipede catapulted into the air, but suddenly made an amazing move, Wu Zhiyuan was shocked when he saw this!
