Chapter Forty-Seven: The Blue Fire Dragonfly
We were still wondering where the ghost fire came from, and the young master had already walked over with the halberd, and there was only an empty plank under the place, and there were some hanging wooden stakes on it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The crow followed cautiously, for fear that something would come out again and scare his soul away, after all, a person who had been scared away from his soul very early would be difficult to call back if he threw his soul back.
At this time, my father quickly followed the master, and the crow and I followed, and I said with some doubts: "Where do you say this ghost fire came from?" It's not like some kind of white phosphorus fire, why don't you move! ”
"Maybe it's the white phosphorus in human bones, but it doesn't look like that's the case!" My dad replied.
The master said: "Just go over and take a look, don't act rashly, I'll go over and test the water first, in case it's not a simple ghost fire, don't come over!" We all nodded in response.
I also said: "In fact, the ghost fire is "phosphorus fire", usually in the countryside, more than in the dry summer days appear in the graves, but occasionally in the city, the reason is still unknown, because human bones contain phosphorus, phosphorus and water or alkali will produce phosphine when the reaction, is a gas that can spontaneously combust, light weight, will move when the wind blows, but it has not been confirmed, when walking will drive it to move behind, looking back, it is very scary, so it is called "ghost fire" by those who are less courageous or superstitious, Overall, the ghost fire is still an unsolved mystery, so I don't know if the fire in front of us is exactly what we call it!"
But we still walked over, and when the master first saw the fire, he shook inexplicably, and he didn't know what it was, and the crow hurriedly asked, "Master, have you found out what it is?" "The crow also called the master with us at this time, but we are still some distance away from the master, after all, the master specially said, we must stay behind him first.
But the master didn't speak, just waved his hand at us, signaling us to step back, and the "ghost fire" in front of the master actually slowly fluttered, and after a while, the "ghost fire" had floated over the top of the master's head, and I had completely seen what the "ghost fire" was, it was not a fire caused by white phosphorus burning at all, because the thing seemed to be alive, and there were tentacles and wings, but the shape was indeed like a dragonfly.
"Something is wrong, how can this dragonfly burn with green-blue flames!" Seeing this, my father hurriedly said.
I was also panicked, and hurriedly shouted to the master: "Master, come back quickly, that's not a ghost fire!" ”
"Don't even move!" Suddenly, the master replied seriously.
I don't know why my master suddenly became so nervous, I was still thinking to myself, aren't these just a few dragonflies? I don't want to do this. But when I saw that the dragonfly was still burning with flames, I had to make my nerves tense, after all, it was impossible to say that there were dragonflies in this tomb, let alone a few dragonflies with green-blue flames.
But after the master said don't move, my nerves tensed again, and we could only communicate in a whisper. The raven asked, "What is this, and how can it live in this tomb?" ”
"This is a blue fire dragonfly, I've seen it on an island in Southeast Asia before! Untouchable! They only see things that move, as if they are the cause of their vision deterioration, so don't move and speak quietly! The master warned.
But I didn't understand this, and I wondered, "Isn't dragonfly's eyesight supposed to be good?" ”
The master replied: "This blue fire dragonfly is different! ”
In other words, dragonfly is a kind of invertebrate, insecta, dragonfly, the common name of insects of the suborder Paraptera, the general body size is larger, the wings are long and narrow, membranous, and the reticulated wing veins are extremely clear. Extremely sensitive vision, three in one eye, one pair of antennae, thin and short, chewing mouthparts
Dragonflies are the insects with the most eyes in the world, dragonfly eyes are big and bulging, occupy the vast majority of the head, and each eye has countless "small eyes" composition, these "small eyes" are connected with photoreceptor cells and nerves, can distinguish the shape and size of objects, their eyesight is excellent, and can look up, down, forward, backward without having to turn their heads, so I don't know what it means when the master says that their eyesight has deteriorated.
These blue dragonflies are still circling around us, we don't dare to move, I don't know how many minutes later, Abu's voice came from behind us, we were all a little worried, my father heard their voices and called out directly: "Don't move, everyone!" Then we found that the old lady and Qianyu, as well as Zhang Yuntian, Li Yahong, Wang Dashan, and Li Sanyuan, they were also there.
"What's wrong? What the fuck are you doing? Wang Dashan laughed twice and asked.
However, Li Yahong immediately saw that something was wrong, stood there blankly, and said in his mouth: "Don't move, everyone!" ”
"What the hell is going on, what the hell are you talking about, what are you doing standing stupidly!" Wang Dashan was impatient and said again.
"Don't make any noise, it's a blue fire dragonfly, don't move, once this thing touches someone, then the whole person will be over!" Li Yahong emphasized, it seems that he also knows.
This dragonfly looks like it's transparent all over, but the transparent part in the middle is blue. And there is a faint blue flame burning all over the body, and at first glance I thought it was a green-blue firefly, but after all, the dragonfly is much bigger, and at a glance you can see that it is not a firefly or something.
Wang Dashan was still a little unconvinced, and said: "Aren't they just a few dragonflies, look what scares you!" Look at me! ”
As soon as Wang Dashan's voice fell, we didn't know what he was going to see, because we were all facing away from him, only the second uncle and Abu were facing him, and suddenly Li Yahong's voice came out at once, only to hear him shouting: "Wang Dashan, don't move!" And the tone was a little scared, we didn't know what Wang Dashan did to make Li Yahong so shocked.
When I turned my head slightly and glanced at Wang Dashan with my residual vision, I realized that Wang Dashan was not listening to what we said at all, but was still moving unscrupulously, and had already reached out and held the blue fire dragonfly in his hand.
"Master, Wang Dashan, he ....." I said helplessly, after all, I don't know what kind of damage the blue fire dragonfly will cause to us.
"What! Throw it away! The young master suddenly stopped standing in place, and turned to look at Wang Dashan.
But Wang Dashan had already held the blue fire dragonfly tightly in his hand.
