Chapter 152: Spiraling Down
The spiraling staircase is almost all made of uneven rock, and it is only done with some simple treatment without any reinforcement, which looks like a material taken on the spot, after all, there are many rocks in the belly of this mountain, and the size of the project is amazing, needless to say that the place where a few people are staying now, that is, the tunnel that San'er and Zhang Renshan walked through when they first entered the belly of this mountain, it also takes some time to complete.

The strange snake was lying near the entrance and exit of the corridor, and most of his body was hanging down in the deep cave and attached to the rock wall, fortunately, the stairs made of these rocks were enough to get acquainted, otherwise he would have been crushed by the weight of the strange snake's body, Zhang Renshan walked in front with a broadsword in his hand, and he didn't dare to breathe, after all, a few people are still on the upper floor of the deep cave, and there is still a long way to go down from the bottom, if something really happens at such a high distance, if it falls, then there is only one possibility, Lifting his steps lightly, Zhang Renshan leaned against the rock wall on the side of the stairs and went down little by little, the tail of the strange snake hung low under the deep cave, and swept twice from time to time, stirring the air in the deep cave, and constantly churning, and from time to time there would be a gust of cold wind, and it was difficult for several people to open their eyes.
The rock stairs slowly spiraled down, Zhang Renshan was also getting closer and closer to the body of the strange snake, San'er followed behind him, and he also pinched a sweat for him, according to what the two said before, Zhang Renshan opened the way in front, after all, he was flexible, if something happened, he could withdraw quickly, San'er as a cushion, if Zhang Renshan in front didn't withdraw for a while, San'er could help him in the back, and Xiaoyue didn't have to worry about anything, mainly because she really couldn't help now, and it would have no effect except to guide the way.
There will still be screams from time to time on the side of the corridor, the sharp claws of the strange snake almost stirred up the corridor into a big cave made of flesh and blood, which is full of scattered human bones and internal organs, and the blood is like a river flowing out of the corridor, the deep hole connecting the corridor has become a slaughterhouse, and there is a bloody breath everywhere, Zhang Renshan and San'er don't dare to look up at the bottom for fear that if they can't control their screams, they will alarm the strange snake, The body of the strange snake is still hanging on the rock wall of the deep cave, and under the body are those rock stairs, Zhang Renshan is trying to prepare to pass through it at this time, but most of the stairs that were pressed by the strange snake were nailed into the rock wall by the squeezing force, and if you want to pass, you can only lean on the side and lean on the rock wall and then pan it little by little, after all, the position that those stairs can step on is only the size of a toe.
Zhang Renshan gritted his teeth and leaned forward, but the strange snake twisted violently as if he knew, Zhang Renshan saw this and quickly dodged backwards, leaned towards San'er and looked back at him, San'er nodded at Zhang Renshan, meaning to tell him to try again, maybe it would be done, Zhang Renshan didn't speak, understood San'er's meaning, turned his head and walked carefully to the strange snake's body again, and then leaned sideways, intending to drill down the stairs under him, San'er helped Zhang Renshan from time to time to stare at the movement above and watch the reaction of the strange snake, if something was not good for him, he would notify Zhang Renshan to speed up and pass as soon as possible.
A few people didn't dare to make a sound, now they were almost a stone's throw away from the strange snake, and if there was a slight disturbance, they would inevitably be discovered immediately, absolutely careless, Zhang Renshan took a deep breath, and then slowed down his steps, and began to drill along the stairs to the other side from under the strange snake little by little, San'er's eyes didn't dare to blink, staring at Zhang Renshan in case he had an accident, but fortunately, Zhang Renshan drilled over a few times, stood on the other side, wiped the sweat on his forehead due to too nervousness, San'er was also happy to see Zhang Renshan pass, and quickly learned from Zhang Renshan's appearance, but also wanted to drill sideways, the rock wall of the deep cave is not very smooth, there are diamonds and angles, San'er was accidentally scratched by a raised rock block when he passed, and immediately left a small wound on his leg, a few drops of blood were left at that time, fortunately, the wound was not deep, just a slight scratch, and it didn't take long for it to heal naturally, Xiaoyue lay on San'er's shoulder to help him stabilize his body, Looking down, he saw the wound on San'er's leg that had just been scratched but healed quickly, tilted his head and didn't speak, Zhang Renshan saw San'er on the other side and quickly stepped forward to drag him, and then the two of them sighed, and the section of the spiral staircase that was pressed by the strange snake was considered to be coming, but just when the two of them were secretly happy in their hearts, Xiaoyue jumped down from San'er's shoulder, and then said softly: "Little cubs, don't be happy too early, you can look down for yourself, there is still such a place there!" ”
Zhang Renshan listened to Xiaoyue's words and hurriedly followed her gaze to look down, the body of this strange snake was huge and vertically attached to the rock wall, almost a large section of the spiral staircase was suppressed, Zhang Renshan and San'er had just walked through the nearest section, and to go down to the bottom of the deep cave, you had to pass through places like seven or eight sections, helplessly San'er had to wave his hand to signal Zhang Renshan to go down, and a few people did not stop and began to go all the way down along the spiral staircase, this deep cave is not only deep but also very open, Compared with the underground cave that the two of them took before, the rock stairs built around this deep cave are naturally magnificent, but there are too many people who can only feel tired after walking for a while, and finally they came to the body of the strange snake again, but after all, the body is a snake, the more people go down, the smaller the body of the strange snake, after walking through two or three such places, the body of the strange snake is almost only more than half a person thick, Compared with the first half, the size of the five or six people and hugs has shrunk by several times, Zhang Renshan looked at it and smiled slightly, nodded and wanted to walk over directly, but San'er reminded him behind him and told him to be careful.
"I said San'er, we've all come here, is there anything else to be afraid of? You see, this old stinky snake can only have such a thick place left! As he spoke, Zhang Renshan gently leaned over and drilled through the gap between the body of the strange snake and the rock wall, and San'er saw that it was not much of a big deal and hurriedly followed Zhang Renshan, and the two of them passed easily and were about to continue when a scream came from the top of several people's heads, and then a black shadow fell directly from the top of the deep hole.
Before a few people could react, the black shadow had already fallen directly to the bottom of the deep cave, and the broken bones were broken, Zhang Renshan poked his head and looked down, shook his head and said, "It's so fucking miserable!" The brains are all out of the blue! ”
San'er hurriedly waved his hand at Zhang Renshan to signal him not to speak, the two looked up and saw that the position they were in now was very far away from the corridor, and they could hardly see what was going on above, they could only dimly see that the head of the strange snake was still flicking over there, and from time to time some scattered gravel pieces fell down, Xiaoyue urged the two to hurry up and say that if the old snake had eaten enough, it was very likely to climb down the rock wall, and then it would be troublesome, After hearing this, San'er didn't dare to put it aside, so he took Zhang Renshan and continued to walk slowly to the bottom of the deep cave.
After walking for a while, there was a scream at the end, San'er hurriedly looked up, only to see that this time not only one person was thrown from the corridor, but almost seven or eight people were scratched by the claws of the strange snake from the top of the deep cave at the same time, turning his body in mid-air, waving his hands indiscriminately, and then falling heavily at the bottom of the deep cave and whining, Zhang Renshan also shrugged his shoulders and said to San'er as San'er looked up to see that it was not his own business: "Such a person is fate, it's none of our business, Who let them not do good deeds, don't look at San'er, let's hurry up and leave! There are still a few laps to go to the end! Don't wait for us to get to the place, the old snake is seeing us when he's had enough of playing on it, and that's fun! ”
San'er also nodded and didn't care about this matter, along the rock stairs around the deep cave is all the way down, the two of them drilled through a few places where the strange snake and the deep cave rock wall contacted, and when they were about to walk to the ground at the bottom of the deep cave, a loud sound came down from the heads of the two, Zhang Renshan hurriedly looked up, only to see that the body of the strange snake obviously moved away from the side of the corridor, and then somehow a huge hole was opened on the deep cave wall facing the corridor, Countless pieces of rock fragments are tumbling from inside and falling to the bottom, San'er saw this and hurriedly urged Zhang Renshan and the two of them to lean against the rock wall so as not to be hit by those rocks from top to bottom, taking advantage of this time Zhang Renshan raised his head slightly and continued to observe the top, only to see that the strange snake body twisted desperately, and then the whole arched, and the huge snake head was slightly biased, and rushed directly to the direction of the corridor.
"This ...... It looks like this old stinky snake is going to swallow it directly! Zhang Renshan has seen snakes and knows their habits, they can be found almost everywhere around Qingshuipu, and even ordinary people will appear one or two from time to time, Zhang Renshan looks at the appearance of the strange snake and knows that it is ready to attack.
"That's not right! Old snakes shouldn't be like this! Why does it have claws? Xiao Yue listened to Zhang Renshan's words, raised her fox head and said.
"Look...... Its claws are like ...... Knocked out! San'er's words directly attracted the attention of Zhang Renshan and Xiaoyue, and the two of them quickly raised their heads and took a closer look, only to see that the two sharp claws that were originally on the body of the strange snake were now all hanging low to the sides of the body, and the flesh and blood on it were blurred, as if they had been hit hard by something.
"My goodness! What is this so powerful that it can ruin the two claws of that old stinky snake! Zhang Renshan looked at the two strange snakes that had already opened their skin and flesh, and said sharply.
"I don't know! These people have been in the mountains for I don't know how many years, who knows what they have studied" San'er pulled Zhang Renshan and motioned for the two to leave quickly, this situation really can't stay long.
There was already less gravel falling from the deep cave, San'er hurriedly seized the opportunity to join Zhang Renshan and the two of them and began to move quickly towards the ground under the deep cave, and now the more they worry about the danger, the more they will be a little more.
Non-stop, Zhang Renshan and San'er took Xiaoyue and the three of them ran together and finally reached the bottom of the deep cave, San'er just stood firm under his feet, but he only heard a wail from above, and there was a heavy sound in his ears, and another person fell from the top of the deep hole, and the blood was sandwiched with broken bones, and the two of them were almost splashed, Zhang Renshan stretched out his hand and took San'er to dodge from a distance.
There is only one hole open on the rock wall on one side of the deep cave, and the hole is carved with a bluestone slab with a pattern of a broken horned unicorn, Zhang Renshan looked up and stretched out his hand to the bluestone slab and said: "San'er, what do you say their grandsons want to do?" ”
"I don't know what you want to do, but if you delay any longer, you may lose your life!" Xiao Yue stood next to San'er's shoulder, looked up at the top and said.
Hearing this, the two of them followed Xiao Yue to look up and up, only to see that the strange snake that was supposed to be lying on the side of the corridor had now fallen, and its body was spinning and falling down in mid-air, and the countless rock stairs around it were torn apart and fell down together with countless gravel because they couldn't withstand the impact of the strange snake's body. Although Zhang Renshan and San'er had already hid in the hole that opened on the rock wall, they were still blown by the air waves brought up by the body smashed down by the strange snake, and Xiaoyue also hooked San'er's clothes with her forefeet so that they were not blown away from San'er's shoulders by the air waves pouring in from outside the hole.
After a while, the two stabilized their bodies, Zhang Renshan rubbed his eyes that were blown and squeezed a few tears, feeling better, and then turned his head to look outside the hole, the body of the strange snake was almost completely covered with the bottom of the deep hole, the body curled up into a ball, and the huge head fell to the side, the snake's mouth was obviously opened by something A big hole, blood was constantly pouring out of the big hole, and the tail of the strange snake seemed to be not dead in the blurred flesh and blood twitched a few times, and then stood up from the ground violently, Although there was a skylight on the snake's mouth, it did not delay the madness of the strange snake at all, and a few low voices of the evil snake spitting out the letter came, but the strange snake rushed up along the rock wall, like a black dragon flew into the corridor, and the screams on it continued for a while, and countless people fell from the top of the deep hole, crying and crying but falling into the flesh without any way.
The bottom of the deep cave became a pool of blood composed of living people in just one moment, and there were broken human bodies everywhere, some with broken heads, some with their chests exploding, and the blood was all over the place, and the air was also full of the smell of blood, which made people smell and vomit.
San'er didn't want to look at it anymore after looking at it for a while, covered his mouth and walked to the inside of the cave and retched for a while, Zhang Renshan looked at San'er and reached out on his back and patted it to help him smooth out, thinking that it would be troublesome if he vomited at that time, but helplessly San'er's stomach basically didn't have anything left in it, and he didn't spit it out at all, the two of them hid the strange snake outside in the hole, Xiaoyue poked out her nose and sniffed around and said: "The person you are looking for is very close to here, I think the old snake won't care about us for a while, otherwise you can follow me and go straight to someone!" ”
San'er originally meant this, but he was really uncomfortable in his stomach just now, and he couldn't say it at the first time, but now that Xiaoyue told him, he quickly nodded in agreement, Zhang Renshan had no opinion anyway, and then several people began to move forward along the road in the hole.
The rock walls on both sides of the road are traces of artificial excavation, compared to the corridor that several people walked through before, it seems to be a lot rougher, not like it was built by the same group of people, San'er casually took down a torch inserted in the wall and held it in his hand.
Zhang Renshan stood aside, turned his head to look at San'er and said, "What are you taking this thing for?" Isn't it all along the way? We don't lack light! ”
San'er shook his head and said: "You have something to guard against, but I am bare-handed, if something happens in front of me, you can fight and fight, then what should I do?" It's a tie-down! ”
After hearing this, Zhang Renshan nodded and said, "It's the same...... Then you can take it! ”
When the two of them spoke and were about to follow Xiao Yue to move forward, they looked down and saw that there was no Xiao Yue on the ground, and now Zhang Renshan and San'er were a little anxious, and they began to search for Xiao Yue's whereabouts, there is more than one way to go in this cave, and when a few people came over just now, they had already walked through a few forks in the road, and they all relied on Xiao Yue's guidance to know which way to go, But now that she is gone, what should I do next San'er is not at all, after all, he and Zhang Renshan's noses are not as sensitive as Xiaoyue, San'er looked back and saw that there was no sound behind the two, obviously there was nothing to keep up, but for the time being, Zhang Renshan waved the broadsword in his hand and looked at San'er and said: "This female fox is unreliable, we all promised to take her out when the time comes, now it's good to be the shopkeeper directly with us, leave us here and don't care!" ”
San'er didn't speak, listening to Zhang Renshan's nagging on the side, he looked down at the ground, and a series of small footprints appeared on the ground under the light of the torch, San'er nodded slightly, stood up, patted Zhang Renshan and said, "Fairy Gu shouldn't be that kind of goblin, let's go!" This is the way to go! ”
San'er was talking towards a fork in the road in the distance, Zhang Renshan didn't understand what San'er was, but seeing that there was no impatience on his face, he had to slowly follow him to the fork in the road......
