Chapter Twenty-Four: Deceit
I don't have to think about it to guess why the flashlight went out, the man in black who snatched our flashlight should have heard our conversation, the point is that he knows that since the Hades leech has chosen Tian Ji, he will only attack Tian Ji alone for the time being.
And after killing the field chicken, he will not take the initiative to attack others for a long time, this grandson is dark, and wants to take advantage of this time to escape, so he turns off the flashlight and pushes the field chicken to die.
"I guess I won't be able to get out, so I'll buy you time at that time." In the dark, Tian Ji's voice was frightened, but heroic. "If you can go out, help me bring a message to my old man, his name is ......"
Rumble!
A flame bloomed in the darkness, I lit the torch in my hand, since I knew that it was a Hades leech, I have been looking for something to ignite, I am glad that the lighter in my pocket can still be used, the Hades leech has almost no weaknesses, the only thing I am afraid of is fire, which is why I picked up the torch just now.
"I have a last word to tell your father in person, my master is a tomb robber, and he doesn't do the work of delivering letters." I handed the torch to the chicken. "If you come together, you will go together, if any of you two is lying here, the master will stay with you."
"There are torches, you don't say it sooner." Tian Ji was not moved, and yelled at me with a collapsed face.
The Hades leeche approaching in the firelight was really Ting, and it also controlled the female corpse to take a few steps back stiffly, and the tentacles that were facing the field chicken's mouth also became irritable, making a squeaking sound, which was extremely harsh.
Tian Ji took a deep breath and took a step forward with the torch in his hand, and the Hades leech manipulated the female corpse to continue to retreat, trying to avoid the light of the torch.
"Even if this monster is afraid of fire, it's not a way to consume it like this." Tian Ji said anxiously.
"This shouldn't be the main tomb, no one will put the Hades leech on themselves, this female corpse should be specially used to raise Hades leeches, and the real tomb owner is someone else." I say.
"Since this is not the main burial chamber, there should be a passage." The palace lord nodded and looked around. "From the beginning, I felt strange that there shouldn't be wind underground, and that the wind that blows the corpses should have come in from somewhere else, indicating that there is a passage to another place."
"Then what are you doing here?" Tian Ji glared at the two of us and said sharply. "Since this bastard likes me, I'll lure him away first, you hurry up and find a passage, this torch has been blistered, it won't burn for long, you hurry up."
After Tian Ji finished speaking, he took the torch and led the female corpse to the corner, I and the palace lord hurriedly began to search the passage, the front was illuminated by the light of the flashlight, and I turned around to see the man in black with a gun and followed behind, this grandson is not stupid with a black heart, and knows that there is still a glimmer of life with us, anyway, the Yama leech has been led away by Tian Ji, and it is convenient to find it with light, and I hate him the most about being a person who has no morality.
Time is pressed and there is no time to worry about him, finding mechanisms is Gong Jue's strength, from the structure and structure of the tomb he can see where the mechanism will be set up, Gong Jue finally stopped at the coffin in the middle of the tomb, which was shocking and full of human blood that was about to overflow.
Gong Jue stared at the coffin for a long time, and finally found that the human blood inside was slowly sinking, but there was no human blood leaking under the coffin.
The gun of the man in black was pressed against the back of my head again, urging me to go down, I turned around and glared at him angrily, and just wanted to step into the coffin, but was stopped by the palace lord: "It's not your job to find a mechanism, I'll go in." ”
Gong Jue entered the coffin without saying a word, and carefully groped in waist-deep human blood, I glanced back at the field chicken in the corner, the torch in his hand was getting fainter and fainter, and it was estimated that it would not be long before it would be extinguished.
When the palace lord probed the top of the coffin, he suddenly stopped, his expression was a little happy, his hand was raised, and with a low roar, the human blood gathered in the coffin quickly sank, and soon a step leading to the depths of the earth was revealed under the coffin.
I hurriedly beckoned Tian Ji to come over, and at the same time turned his head to the man in black with disdain and said, let him go first, the man in black looked at the coffin down the steps, illuminated it with a flashlight, there was a corner and could not see the bottom, it is estimated that all the things encountered along the way are unbelievable, even if he wants to protect himself, he does not dare to go first alone.
"You go first." The man in black put a gun to the back of my head.
I smiled contemptuously and coldly, Tian Ji had already run over angrily, without the deterrence of fire, the female corpse controlled by the Hades leech behind him was like a shadow, and the speed of movement was beyond my imagination, the female corpse ran extremely weird and terrifying, even if it was not close to the torch, but Tian Ji was within the reach of the Hades leech from beginning to end.
"You go first, the palace lord follows, and I will break behind." I glanced down the passage under the coffin and said briefly.
"This monster is only staring at me, I'll stay behind you safely, or you and the palace lord go first." Tian Ji looked firm.
The palace lord standing in the coffin grabbed the field chicken: "We are robbing the tomb, you can't be a hero if you stay behind, hurry up." ”
Tian Ji was pushed into the passage by Gong Jue, Gong Jue glanced at me, suddenly smiled, not to me, but the man in black behind me, and then shook his head and Tian Ji disappeared around the corner of the steps, until the fire gradually drowned in the darkness.
The Hades leeches that manipulated the female corpse were no longer restricted by the firelight, and those manic tentacles suddenly regained their calm, they should have sensed that the selected field chicken had left, and the squeaky sound made by the tentacles was even more rapid and harsh, and the Hades leech seemed to be enraged, and controlled the female corpse to approach violently, as if it wanted to catch the field chicken back.
The man in black had a flashlight on one side to block the Hades leech, and he should have made sure that there was no danger ahead, so he pushed me forward with a gun, motioned me to go ahead of him, and waited for me to go down to the passage, and suddenly turned around and blocked the steps.
"Let's go, what are you doing?" He was now the only one left in the tomb, and although he was holding a flashlight to stop the Hades leech, he looked terrified.
"There are two things I forgot to tell you." I looked at the man in black who stepped into the coffin and said.
"What's the matter?" The man in black was stunned.
"First, I hate being coerced the most, plus the time just now, you put a gun on my head three times, the trouble is, whoever provokes me, I will definitely pay back tenfold."
"It's not more than three things, so I should kill you right now." The man in black raised his gun, although it was very strong, but he kept looking at the Hades leech that was close at hand, and he looked a little flustered.
"So, I'm going to tell you the second thing, the only thing that the Hades leech is afraid of is fire, and it is never afraid of light, on the contrary, the Hades leech is extremely sensitive to light, and the flashlight was the only light at that time, I can't turn it off, but whoever holds the flashlight will definitely die, I don't want to die, so I say that the Hades leech is afraid of light, because I know that you will definitely rob it." An uninhibited smile slowly appeared on the corner of my mouth. "Also, Hades Leech has lost its chosen prey, and you now have the only light here......"
The smile on my face was pleasant, the man in black was stunned, his eyes widened suddenly, and the moment the flashlight was turned off, I heard a heart-rending scream in the dark, and the passage under the coffin was closed.
The screams of pain were accompanied by the sound of stumbling gunfire, through the thick stone seal, and I stood silently in the dark steps and listened until a moment later the silence above had returned to death.
"I don't look at who raised the master, intrigue, and deceit, the master grew up listening to stories since he was a child, I don't count people and it's already a matter of burning high incense, and I still dare to coerce me, and I can't live for my own evil." I smiled faintly and muttered to myself towards the sealing stone above my head.
The firelight behind me stretched my shadow, and when I turned around, I saw Gongjue and Tian Ji coming back, and Tian Ji saw that I was the only one, and I didn't react yet: "What about the grandson?" ”
"Stay on it and be a pet for the Hades leech." I'm understated.
The palace lord next to him was not surprised at all, Tian Ji looked at the palace lord, probably remembering what the palace lord urged him to go first just now: "You colluded?" ”
"Whoever colluded with him, he didn't plan to cheap the man in black at all, when he handed the flashlight, I saw the thief smile on the corner of his mouth, I knew that he was setting up a trap, but that person has a bad heart, and he has nothing to do with others, and it is a disaster for such a person to stay by his side sooner or later, so it's good to get rid of it." The palace lord replied calmly.
"That's it? How do you know he's going to get rid of that grandson in case he's in danger? ”
"Yes, he has a gun in his hand, aren't you afraid that if I have three long and two short?" I asked curiously, with a ruffian on my face.
"No in case." Gong Jue looked at Tian Ji, and then his eyes fell on me, and his smile was full of helplessness. "He can throw me in the grave and don't ask, what else is there, he can't do it."
