Chapter 52: The Bridge

Chaozi's words were like a scoop of cold water poured on everyone's heads, originally thought that this should be a powerful mechanism or a vicious ghost, but now? provoked a bunch of inexplicable "corpse silkworms". Back then, in Tibet, a "corpse silkworm" killed the squad leader, and now at a glance here, I am afraid that there are no less than 10,000 of them. Now there are only five people in total, and the two wounded and sick are still in a coma at the moment, even if the three of them are capable, if they want to pass the path guarded by such evil insects, I am afraid it is not enough for them to stuff their teeth, Cha Wenbin is already in a hurry, fortunately, those insects don't seem to be interested in these living people, just play arhats there, but if they want to step on these insects, no one dares to guarantee that they will not be bitten by one or two of them.

It's not going in, it's not going back, now they're really in a dilemma, Cha Wenbin didn't expect that he would be buried in such a place, if he was eaten alive by these insects, it would be better to be stabbed and refreshed!

Chaozi has no idea now, he has seen the power of this insect with his own eyes, and he can only hope that Cha Wenbin can come up with a way: "Brother Wenbin, what should we do now?" ”

Looking at the expectant eyes of the two of them, Cha Wenbin knew that in this team, he was already the absolute backbone, and if even he was discouraged, the two of them could only wait for death. Therefore, you must not give up until you have to! He thought back to the ins and outs of the whole thing, and always felt that there was something strange about this matter, from entering the village to someone going missing, and then going down to this ancient well, it seemed that everything was artificially designed, and he felt that they had stepped into a huge trap.

So what exactly is the purpose of this person's doing? What is it about their team that is worth exploiting? Four men, one woman, just came here to look for archaeological data, nothing special.

No, an idea suddenly popped up in Cha Wenbin's heart, originally there were only three men and one woman when they came to Qingcheng Mountain, and Zhuo Xiong was just a guide who joined later.

By the way, why didn't he remember this stubble, who led them here, who told them that there were stone men and stone horses here, and under what circumstances did the disappearance of Lao Wang and Leng Yiran happen? Zhuo family!

Cha Wenbin's eyes were cold, and he suddenly turned his head and stared at Zhuo Xiong, who was sitting on the ground. What about Zhuo Xiong at this moment? He was looking at the "corpse silkworm" in front of him in a daze, and Cha Wenbin's eyes did not attract his attention!

Cha Wenbin returned to his original gaze, looked at Zhuo Xiong and asked, "Brother Zhuo Xiong, what are you thinking?" ”

Hearing Cha Wenbin's question, he turned his head: "Brother Wenbin, I'm wondering why these insects didn't come out until the coffin was opened, if they appeared before us were still at the bottom of the pool, then I'm afraid we would already have no bones." ”

Zhuo Xiong's simple self-talk made Cha Wenbin wonder again, if it was really all arranged by the people of the Zhuo family, then after Chaozi went down the well, Zhuo Xiong could not follow down at all, and just take the rope away and be done. Why do you have to come down and stay together to take this risk, it seems that it can't be explained, it should be that I think about it too much, at this moment Cha Wenbin felt a little guilty in his heart, it can be said that Zhuo Xiong was originally the only outsider here, if he didn't treat everyone as friends, he wouldn't have followed in. So who arranged it? Or it's just that I'm thinking wrong, all of this is simply a coincidence, in other words, it's fate. Cha Wenbin didn't dare to think about it anymore, fighting with ghosts is not terrible, what is terrible is fighting with people!

Cha Wenbin rubbed his face a few times, changed his usual expression, and said, "Brother Zhuoxiong, I didn't hear what you just said. ”

Zhuo Xiong stood up, pointed to the insects in front of him and said, "I said that if these insects are really here to eat us, why don't they appear earlier, or rush over now, we can't hide from them." ”

Chaozi also said: "You see, those insects seem to just want to climb to the top of the cliff, and they are not interested in us at all. ”

Following the direction of Chaozi's finger, a few insects were already very close to the top of the cliff, and they kept swinging their bodies, and a surprising scene happened, a "corpse silkworm" spewed something from its mouth and shot to the top of the cliff, and then more and more insects began to spray things. The bugs below didn't even start to climb up, a few bugs at the top were already rolling down at the moment, and the bugs below had also begun to retreat, and the bugs that sprayed things just now were already hanging in the air! Cha Wenbin took a closer look, and it turned out that these guys were spraying nothing else, it was the kind of black silk thread that Chaozi said.

One end of the silk thread was stuck to the top of the cliff, and the other end was tightly bitten by the "corpse silkworm" in his mouth, so he hung himself in the air, and counted it roughly, there were hundreds of "corpse silkworms" hanging in the air at the moment, and the black silk thread they spit out was intertwined with each other and twisted into a black silk thread, as thick as the trekking rope carried by Chaozi. Before Cha Wenbin had time to think about why they did this, a new scene appeared.

When the "corpse silkworm" below retreated to a certain height, the formation was stabilized again. Then there was a "corpse silkworm" began to sneeze silk, but this time the spray place was not the top of the cliff, but those companions who were hanging in the air at the moment, the original white body, after a while, turned black, look like this, those insects hanging in the air have been completely wrapped in.

When the "corpse silkworm" above has been completely wrapped by the silk clue, the insect army below began to retreat again, and then the second wave of silkworms was also hung in the air, after reaching a certain height, a new "corpse silkworm" began to spin silk, wrapping the second wave of companions, and the connected silk let itself be hung below. Such a cycle of relay spinning reminds Cha Wenbin of a well-known story: the monkey catches the moon: the monkey hangs upside down from the tree in a way that connects its bodies, until the last monkey touches the moon in the water. Then the practice of these insects is strikingly similar to that of monkeys fishing for the moon, except that the direction is reversed.

The bugs first use their bodies to send their companions close to the top of the cliff, so that the companions on the top can stick to the top of the cliff with the black silk thread they spit out, and then use the body of that one as a connection point to expand downward, if they are given a little time, a rope composed of the body of the worm will be formed, from the top of the cliff to the ground vertically!

After Cha Wenbin understood the truth, he said: "Chaozi, Zhuoxiong, you see, these insects are using their bodies to build a bridge, a bridge from the top of the cliff to the ground, at their current speed, it won't be long before this bridge will be completed, but I don't know what is the reason why these "corpse silkworms" do this? ”

Chaozi coughed dryly: "Brother Wen Bin, you said that they are building a bridge, since it is a bridge, it must be to facilitate who crosses the bridge, otherwise why build it?" ”

Cha Wenbin smiled and patted Chaozi's back: "Chaozi, you can always surprise me when my thoughts are confused, the bridge is to cross the bridge, since there is a master who wants to cross the bridge, although I don't know what it is yet, then let's wait and see, you two are ready, if something comes out in a while, listen to my signal, and be ready to break that "rope" at any time!" ”

Zhuo Xiong raised the shotgun in his hand and tried to take aim, "No problem, at this distance, one shot is enough!" ”

Cha Wenbin made a thumbs-up gesture towards Zhuo Xiong, he really blamed him, otherwise with Zhuo Xiong's ability, he really wanted to harm them, but he was afraid that he would be gone a long time ago.

A few people didn't speak, but watched the rope not far away get longer and longer, and after a quarter of an hour, it finally connected to the ground, and the "corpse silkworms" below rushed to the surroundings like a tide as if they had received an order, leaving a wide road in the middle. The insects that retreated were all in one posture, holding their heads high, as if they were greeting the arrival of the "VIPs". Chaozi saw the vacant road and asked in a low voice, "Brother Wen Bin, otherwise we will take advantage of this gap now and rush over!" ”
