Chapter 228: Laying the Dead

The "Spotted Jiao" probably climbed into the altar cave from some other water hole, the ice wall-like crystal, blocking the way it pounced, and it was bulky, and it was difficult to jump from the ice wall several meters high, but its big mouth stretched out from the gap between the two large crystals, the jawbone was still stuck outside, and the short and thick limbs kept scratching behind the head, eager to squeeze the crystal blocking the way.

All the animals that have grown for a long time, all like "Neidan", especially the aquarium, Jiao, fish, turtle, mussel genus, smooth and round beads are their favorite "Neidan" under the moon, there are many views recorded in ancient books, all think that this is a kind of long-term psychic, the manifestation of the essence of the qi, in fact, it is all nature.

I tried my best to barely use a mountaineering pickaxe to block the two crystal eyes that were about to roll into the water, but although the world is wide, the road is narrow, I didn't expect that the "brindled Jiao" took advantage of this kung fu to stretch out its mouth and insert a bar, a big mouth inhaled, the fishy air flow, wrapped in crystal eyeballs, rolled into its mouth, I looked at a full eye, although I was so anxious that my heart was burning, it was easy to enter and difficult to come out, the two "spotted Jiao" that peeked into the wind erosion lake orb, I don't know how many years and months I have been fighting with this white-bearded old fish for this thing, Once swallowed, outsiders don't want to take it out again, although the two evil Jiao has been in the ruins of the ancient city, one was killed by Qianjun Stone Eye, but just in the face of this "brindle Jiao", we have no way to deal with it at the moment, this guy has rough skin and thick flesh and infinite power, the bullet will not do anything to it at all, I can't move on the slippery crystal layer, I can only watch, and my heart is desperate to the extreme.

At the moment when the "brindle Jiao" sucked the crystal eyeballs into his mouth, I heard a burst of chaos behind me, as if Uncle Ming and the fat man escaped from the sky beam with Ah Xiang, and trampled on the piled up dried corpses a lot, and even the people with the dried corpses rolled and collapsed, and before I looked back to see what happened, I was pushed and hit by something from behind, and I don't know whether it was the fat man and others who rolled down, or the dry corpse that was trampled down by them, in short, the power was amazing, and I was immediately knocked out of the crystal layer and slid forward.

I was lying on the ground and was pushed forward and slid out, I had lost control of my own inertia, just sending my head to the bloody mouth of the "brindled Jiao", and in an instant I was already at a face-to-face distance, and the castration had not stopped, and my head had reached its mouth. The foul breath of the "brindled Jiao" made my brain hurt for a while, and Sensen's sharp teeth saw that my whole body was cold, but at this time, I suddenly saw two round things, which were slowly rolling backwards in the mouth of the "Zebra Jiao", and they were about to sink into my throat. And the "brindled Jiao" has a huge mouth with incomparably strong bite force, originally inhaled hard, and the angle of opening and closing was not too big, but when he saw me send it to the door, this greedy guy naturally would not let go, but completely opened his mouth, ready to bite off my head, and swallowed it together with the pair of eyeballs.

I didn't dare to think about the consequences, so I just relied on a moment of bloody courage, and while my body slid forward, I grabbed the pickaxe next to me and quickly sent it forward, using the pickaxe as a support. Vertically tucked into the big mouth of the "brindled Jiao", and suddenly its mouth was bent into a large zigzag, and it could no longer be closed, and then I hit the "Zebra" gum headlong, and the hiking helmet was hit with a sonorous sound. I dragged its palate with one hand, and the other hand poked into its mouth, and forced out the two crystal eyeballs from the inside.

I just felt a little scared, and the arm was gone after half a second, and I opened my palm to see that the two round objects, although they were covered by sticky gastric juice, saliva and bloodstains, could not hide the dark red glimmer inside, it was nothing else, it was the crystal corpse eyeball that was put into the "Wind Erosion Lake" by the "Reincarnation Sect" to worship the Evil Luo Hai City, and we had basically speculated that it was possible that the ghost mother's brain was buried under the Shadow City, and her eyes were placed in the underwater temple of the ancient city ruins, or somewhere at the bottom of the lake, In order to compete for the "Neidan" in the eyes of this pair of aquarists, the "Spotted Jiao" will continue to attack the fish in the "Wind Erosion Lake", but I didn't expect to be seriously injured by the whitebeard fish, and I vomited it in this cave, just almost to the extreme, and almost lost it, but fate has obviously not abandoned us, and the two sacrifices are already in my hands at the moment.

I didn't have time to think about it carefully, just now I reached into the thrill of the mouth of the evil Jiao, and found that the "Spotted Jiao" behind the crack in the stone was in a frenzied rage, it obviously couldn't tolerate what I did, took a few steps back, and slammed viciously into the two large pieces of crystal ore that blocked its path, but these mirror-like ores are connected with the crystal vein formation, which is still solid and strong, and the crystal layer on the ground is also smooth and abnormal, it is difficult to exert enough strength, but this gap is an inverted triangle, narrow at the bottom and slightly wider at the top," The "brindle Jiao" actually jumped into the wider gap above, and its thick body was squeezed with twists, and it was possible to crawl over.

I had to quickly climb back from the mountains of dried corpses, and immediately stuffed the offerings into my carrying bag, when I realized that at some point, the rumbling thunder above my head had stopped, and there was only the heavy gasping of men and beasts in the cave, and suddenly there was a burst of rifle shooting, and the fat man on the corpse mountain saw that the situation was dangerous, and he was shooting support, but the bullet hit the head of the "brindle Jiao", which did not hurt it at all, but only increased its rage.

I took advantage of the fact that it had not yet broken free from the gap, and quickly kicked the crystalline rock with my foot to retreat, and when my body hit the dried corpses piled up behind me, I found that the person who hit me just now was Uncle Ming, he rolled to my side from the pile of dried corpses, his expression was embarrassed, and he was so frightened by the ferocious evil Jiao that he stayed in place and didn't know what to do, I grabbed his arm and desperately crawled up to the pile of dried corpses.

I saw the fat man on the top keep shooting, and Shirley Yang wanted to come down to answer, but it was really difficult for people to move on the hill of the dry corpse, and the harder they worked, the more they couldn't move the place, so I only heard Shirley Yang shouting anxiously: "Be careful of the ...... behind"

I don't have to look back to know that the big thing is not good, it must be that the "brindle Jiao" has jumped over, once it comes into contact with it, whether it is bitten or hit, it is certain death, but the corpse mountain is difficult to climb, so I have to give up the efforts to continue to go up, and drag Uncle Ming from the halfway point of the dry corpse pile to the side, there are many uneven geodes and prismatic crystals in that direction, the terrain is more complicated, maybe it can temporarily block the "brindle Jiao" that is chasing relentlessly.

The fluorescence in this altar cave has dimmed, it seems that it is not only due to the black shadow overhead, after the thick stone smoke has dissipated, the light on the bottom layer has gradually become extremely dim, and everything has begun to be hazy and blurred, it seems that all the light in the cave has been absorbed by the "Great Black Sky Thunder Mountain", but this situation also has its favorable side for us for the time being. The reflection in the crystal stone is hazy and no longer affects our judgment of direction. It's just that the surrounding shadows are a little dazzling, so the terrain here is more complicated from a few meters away, but when you get closer, you realize that there is actually only a wall of ice crystalline rock that can be temporarily sheltered.

Uncle Ming also came to his senses at this time, and hid behind this big crystal stone with me. The foothold was not stable, the "brindle Jiao" hit the crystal stone behind us, this time it was like hitting a thousand catties of copper bells, a loud bang after the buzzing echo, I felt that the body and mind were completely shocked, the mind was dizzy, and the vision in front of me was blurred, and it took a few seconds before it returned to normal.

The crystal stone on our back was violently impacted, and the moment it lost consciousness, the "Spotted Jiao" launched a second impact, this time I learned a lesson, quickly made the body leave the crystalline stone, turned around and looked, the large piece of transparent crystal behind him, has been hit into several cracks, and again, at most two, the "Spotted Jiao" can break through the wall.

I saw that I was facing a desperate situation, around the position, both sides were the crystal veins that grew horizontally, on the right hand side were piles of dried corpses, it was easy to come down, it was difficult to go up, it was difficult to climb up in a hurry, and on the right hand, it was a water hole not far from the dying fish, but under the pursuit of the "spotted Jiao", jumping into the water was not a way to kill yourself.

And at this time, Uncle Ming panicked again: "Brother Hu, you can't stop it, run for your life......" Today's series of events may have caused him to be mentally unstable, I see his actions, this time it's really not acting, he actually turned his head forward and feet back, drilled into a very shallow geode, said that it was the etched hole on the crystal vein, in fact, the thickness was about the same as the bucket, and it was not deep at all, Uncle Ming only drilled into half of it, and it was already at the bottom, the two legs and buttocks were still exposed, only to hear Uncle Ming still talking to himself in the hole: "It's safe enough here, Of course, if you use your brain, everything is OK. But then he himself found that the lower half of his body was still exposed, and he didn't know if he was confused or understood, so he comforted himself and said, "It's a big deal, don't have legs." ”

At this time, Shirley Yang took Ah Xiang, together with the fat man, climbed down from the pile of corpses to join me, looking at their uneasy looks, I am afraid that the Tianliang and the vicinity of the altar can no longer stay, I still don't care to see what is happening above my head, but since everyone is in one place, there will be a little to take care of between advance and retreat.

We saw that Uncle Ming's speech was already a little upside down, and he was about to pull him out of the hole, but the crystal behind him suddenly collapsed, and the "brindle Jiao" finally knocked down the crystal layer less than half a meter thick after the third impact, and everyone hurriedly leaned over to dodge, "The brindle Jiao" jumped over our heads by the inertia of jumping up and impacting, and hit another crystal layer on the opposite side, and there was a loud bang, and the scattered crystal dust fell in all directions, and the strange body of the "Zebra Jiao" fell heavily to the ground, but its strength made it too much, It rolled sideways twice before it stopped.

Behind us was the waterhole, next to the direction of the pile of dried corpses, completely blocked by the "brindled Jiao". I saw that I couldn't escape with wings, so I had to fight to the death, and took out the MI911 and was about to shoot, but I saw that the "spotted Jiao" suddenly flipped over, and there was a sound of bones breaking inch by inch in its body, and streams of blood spurted out of the mouth, nose and eyes, and the fierce beast was like a pile of soft and collapsed meatloaf, and it died on the ground.

For a moment, we were all stunned on the spot, no one could believe that the situation in front of us was real, the internal organs and bones of the "brindled Jiao" were shattered into mud, although there were no scars on the outside, but it was no longer formed, it was just something that happened in a second or two, it was too fast, and it was too unbelievable, and it just pounced on itself and fell there, what happened just now? If it's some kind of attack, why don't we see it? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel an extreme chill in my heart, could it be an invisible enemy? Could it really be the evil spirit in the ore "Big Black Sky Thunder Mountain"? Even the "brindle Jiao" can be solved by it in an instant. It's not like a game to kill a few people.

Everyone was stunned in their hearts, but then they found that under the muddy corpse of the "Spotted Jiao", the crystal layer on the surface of the ground turned black, and the pitch-black color, even in a dimly lit environment, was particularly prominent, a kind of pitch black with no sense of existence, very empty, and like black ink flowing in the crystal stone, slowly moving towards us in the crystal layer.

Most of the crystal layers in the entire cave have turned black, and there are not many crystal layers left that have not been eroded. The visibility is getting lower and lower, and the "Great Black Sky Thunder Mountain" has really come out, although I don't know what it is, and I don't know how it killed the "Spotted Jiao", but everyone knows that once it touches the kind of crystal layer that turns black. must be the same as the unlucky "brindle Jiao", who doesn't know how he died until he dies.

Uncle Ming, who was hiding in the hole, only showing his two legs, was closest to those crystals that were gradually turning black, and the fat man and I saw that it was not good, so we grabbed one of Uncle Ming's thighs and dragged him out of the hole. But seeing that all directions were splashed with ink, they were already under siege, and there was still a way to go.

We have no choice, we have to jump into the water hole where the white-bearded old fish is, this is a small pool in the crystal layer, the diameter is small, but very deep, in the absence of oxygen cylinders, people can not swim out from below, and even if there is an oxygen tank, the water path below is unknown, it is very likely to get lost in it and not find the exit, and finally run out of oxygen and die, for a time there is no way out, so I have to step on the water to float in it, in the moment of jumping into the water, the whole cave, It was all swallowed up by the ink-like substance in the crystal layer.

We jumped into the water in a panic, but by mistake, it seems that the thing can only exist in crystals or rocks, and cannot enter the water, and it is safe here for the time being, but from a macro point of view, we have no food, no way out, how long can we survive here, and what is the point of living for a while or three more.

In the dark cave, shrouded in death-like silence, in less than half a minute, it was so dark that we couldn't see five fingers, we turned on the tactical spotlight on the mountaineering helmet, and the spotlight beam fell into the dark ocean, although faint like fireflies, it still made people feel a little relieved in despair.

I looked around and confirmed that the things in the crystal layer would not enter the water, so I smiled bitterly, this time it's good, it took a lot of effort to find the phoenix gall and crystal eyes, and I can unload this big burden at a glance, but it's still a step too late, and now the daylilies are cold, let's just soak it, and it will be soaked tomorrow and become dead drift.

The fat man complained, this is to blame Uncle Ming, delaying everyone's time to survive, it's not that we have to engage in any class liquidation, but we can't spare him, we owe us spiritual damages, and he has to pay it back when he goes to the underworld, Lao Hu, what do you say about this account?

Uncle Ming was very afraid of me and the fat man, so he had no choice but to ask Shirley Yang for help, Shirley Yang said to us: "Okay, don't scare Uncle Ming, how old he is, it's not easy, think about any way to get out, you can't really be like the old nonsense, have been soaking in water until tomorrow." ”

I was about to speak, when Ah Xiang suddenly screamed "oops", it turned out that in the chaos just now, I don't know who kicked the arm of a dried corpse into the water and floated to Ah Xiang's side, which startled her.

I picked up the floating dried corpse arm from the water and said to Ah Xiang, Ah Xiang, sister, this is a good thing, you see that although the arm of this dried corpse is dry, the skin and flesh are not rotten and dissolved, which means that this is a zombie, you take it back to Hong Kong and cook it and eat it, it will be very good for you.

Shirley Yang and Ah Xiang and others shook their heads in disbelief, when is this still in the mood to talk nonsense, the fat man said Lao Hu Now I really convinced you, I always felt that the two of us were about the same in courage, but you are still talking about this occasion? Your unsparing attitude is really not something that anyone can have, but it's not good for you to talk nonsense, are you hungry and dizzy, and even zombies want to eat?

I said to them, you people really don't have much knowledge, zombie meat can be used in medicine, which is clearly recorded in ancient books, especially can treat injuries with mutilated limbs, when Liu Yu under the Henan Taosha official, poured the Song Dynasty Emperor Zhezong's fight, see that the emperor has become a zombie, the skin and flesh are white and crystal clear as if to drip water, so everyone cut off a piece of his flesh to prepare for the future when he was wounded by a knife and arrow, even foreigners admit that mummies have high medicinal value, how is this nonsense?

I had no intention of speaking to relax everyone's tense nerves, but Shirley Young thought of something, took the arm of the dried corpse from my hand and said, "Yes, maybe we can return to the altar above." ”

Shirley Yang said that in the ancient legend, the "Great Black Sky Thunder Mountain" is an evil spirit that can control the ore, but Ah Xiang can't see anything unclean in this cave, and thinks of the death of the evil Jiao, as if it was killed by the resonance of "infrasound" or "crystal trembling", since it is called Thunder Mountain, it must be possible to use some kind of sound that we can't hear to kill, the most likely is "crystal trembling", if you can pile up the dried corpses into a certain thickness, step on the dry corpses to the altar, and not contact with the ore in the cave, The "crystal tremor" can be canceled to the point of no harm, when we saw that the crystal layer, including the beam, turned black everywhere, and ran down from the pile of dried corpses, and now that we think about it, maybe that pile of corpses is the safest place.

After Shirley Yang finished speaking, I discussed with the fat man, instead of staying in the water and waiting for death, it is better to take the risk and give it a try, maybe there is a way to live, but we are some distance from the place where the dried corpses are piled up, so we have to use the previous method, connect the load-bearing belt, hang a mountaineering pickaxe on the head, throw it over and hook the corpses in the distance, and use the dried corpses that have been gouged out of their eyes as road bricks, and keep saying that it is not to blame for offending, but then I thought that the language may not be compatible, so I let it go, and the layers of dry corpses will be thickly paved over, This trick turned out to be very feasible, but it was necessary to exert extra strength, and there could be no mistakes, otherwise it would be over if you fell down and fell on the crystal layer.

We were busy moving the dried corpse, when we heard a burst of cracking sound on the top of the originally calm head, everyone couldn't help but stop, and the black hole on the head couldn't see anything clearly, but listening to the sound, it seemed that the clump of crystal halberds on the top was cracking and was about to fall down.
