Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Cave in the Water
"In my opinion, after Jing Lianhong killed all the workers and soldiers in the door, he made a nest for the golden flame insect that he couldn't finish killing. And the blue bug you see today is the 'king of worms' of the Golden Flame Worm, and legend has it that it can be domesticated by humans. So I estimate that eighty percent of these insects were domesticated by Jing Lianhong and used to watch the home nursing home. ”
"This ...... It can't be, right? I shook my head, "The gap between humans and insects is too big for them to communicate." How could Jing Lianhong treat bugs as pets and slaves and make them obedient? This is too evil! ”
"That's not for sure, the reason why people can't communicate with insects is because there are too few ways to communicate. But humans and insects have the same stem cells, and even many genes are the same, and once there is an opportunity for communication between the two, it is not impossible to reach some kind of consensus. In ancient Europe, circuses domesticated fleas were used to perform shows. ”
"The same is true of the relationship between beekeepers and bees. And Jing Lianhong gave people's carrion to the golden flame insects to make a nest, which itself was a kind of breeding for insects. Perhaps Jing Lianhong used some method to make these insects think that we who entered the millet garden were intruders who wanted to destroy their nests, and it was precisely because of this that they would attack us. ”
Hearing Xiao Rong say this, I only felt a headache.
"Maybe......" I said faintly, and I sat with my head on the side.
Is Jing Lianhong a god?
He knows astronomy and geography, and he has made friends with the ancients, and he has rebuke the past and the present.
It is a "miracle" that he was able to create this "Turi Gate"! Fortunately, he is dead, but even if he becomes a dry corpse, he can toss us so embarrassed, I can't help but be like, if Jing Lianhong really eats some elixir to live to this day, with a few of us shrimp soldiers and crab generals, I don't know how he will be played to death!
I'm still burning, and when I close my eyes, I feel like the world is spinning.
Speaking of Jing Lianhong, I was confused, and I remembered his coffin hidden in the gold and silver mountains. I don't know what Jing Lianhong thinks, how could he make his coffin so simple? Even the longevity utensils that my grandmother used when she gave the funeral in her hometown were more luxurious than his.
I always feel that something important happened when Jing Lianhong died, or was delayed by some situation, the coffin was parked there at will, the coffin was not sealed, and there were no coffin nails.
Then I thought back to his body in the coffin, and to his right hand, which was missing two fingers......
At that time, I just had a thought in my head, but now that I think about it, the more I think about it, the more weird it feels.
I remember when I was in elementary school, my dad had an accident and was hospitalized in the hospital for most of the month, and then he was discharged, and since then he has been missing two fingers on his right hand. It turned out to be exactly the same as Jing Lianhong's corpse!
This should be a coincidence, right?
What could it be, if not a coincidence?
I was so sleepy that I began to feel confused when I thought about it, and after a while I fell asleep against the wall.
I don't know how long I slept, but someone shook my shoulder in a trance. woke up all of a sudden, and when I saw it, it was Xiao Rong.
"Wake up, I can't sleep." Xiao Rong Road.
Hearing him say this, I also felt that the air was suffocated, and my chest felt like it was being pressed by something, and I knew that the oxygen in this hole was probably not enough. I picked up a handful of cold water, washed my face, and asked Xiao Rong how he was.
"The girl just sneaked out to see what happened." Xiao Rong replied.
"She went?" I was taken aback, and said that the girl is such an unreliable person, why did she send her? I looked around, and saw that the girl's huge backpack was still in the corner, but the person was nowhere to be seen, and I couldn't help but worry when I thought that she was still injured.
I waited calmly for a while. Not long after, a bright light appeared on the dark water, and a large number of bubbles were seen emerging from the water, and the black water seemed to be boiling. Immediately after that, a head came out with water, a small mouth pouted, and a "poof" sprayed my face.
"There's a door!" The girl smiled and shouted, "Those bugs are gone, clean up, let's go out!" As he spoke, he climbed ashore neatly, grabbed his big bag, and slung it over his shoulder.
After gesturing with those Xuanyuan people, we cleaned up a little, and the group got into the water in turn, and returned the way we came.
The chill that pierced my heart hit my whole body again. It was probably because of the night, the water temperature became colder, and several times I felt like my feet were cramping, so I could only swim for a while, then stop and knead twice, and then swim again.
Finally, I got through the most uncomfortable and dangerous part, and as soon as my head came out of the water, the wind blew, but it became even colder.
The sky was already completely dark, the half round of cold moon floated in a few loose frozen clouds, the lifeless gray shimmer spread on the millet garden, the eaves and the pavilion, the green pines and green bamboos were all blurred, leaving only strange silhouettes.
There was a thick layer of golden flame worm corpses floating on the water, and I pushed aside the disgusting things, and with my hands on the rocks on the shore, I slumped out of the water.
I only cared about running wildly with the girl wrapped in tin foil before, and I didn't see the scene around me clearly. At this moment, the night is dark, and I am busy looking around, only to feel that the scenery is a little familiar. After a closer look, I realized that this is not the "leaky pavilion" and the lotus pond in front of the pavilion?
After a circle, we came back again......
I pulled out the cocktail stick from my ass pocket. With the lessons of the past, this time the equipment I bought is waterproof! The incendiary rod slashed on the ground, and the flames flew everywhere, and the surroundings were immediately illuminated as bright as day.
"I wonder if Dadong has found their way up? What do we do now? How to meet them? The girl shivered, wiping the water from her hair with a small handkerchief, "Or we will shout as we walk, although this garden is big, but now it is so quiet, the sound should be able to travel far away......"
As soon as the girl's words fell, she heard a terrible howl from the direction of the valley in the distance...... I was taken aback, and immediately thought it was the wolves outside the garden.
"Okay, you shout." I said, "The wolf can hear such a terrible howl, and your shouting is similar to a wolf's howl, maybe they can really hear it." ”
The girl glared at me fiercely, put her hand to her mouth and opened her mouth to shout, but Xiao Rong suddenly raised her hand and stopped her.
"Wait!"
"What's wrong again?" The girl crossed her hands impatiently.
"There is movement ......"
Xiao Rong's five senses are not comparable to ordinary people, and when he says that there is movement, it must not be nonsense. The girl is also well aware of this, and she doesn't speak at the moment. In the darkness, our group stood dumbfounded, unable to hear anything except the howling of wolves.
I looked at Xiao Rong, and I saw that his face was nervous, staring at somewhere. I looked in the direction of his gaze, and I saw a corner of the ridge of a building looming out of the black shadows of the trees. When I looked closely, I found that it was actually the roof of Jiaxiu Building.
"Oops!"
Xiao Rong suddenly let out a low roar, and before I could figure out what was going on, I heard a clear voice resounding throughout Miyuan.
The sound was like the "crackling" sound of countless rubble and tiles falling to the ground. Then I heard a loud sound like walls collapsing and stone pillars breaking.
"What's going on?" The girl was startled and screamed.
I can't answer the girl's question. At this time, the roof of the huge Jiaxiu Building was obviously crooked, and then I saw a dark and heavy smoke rise, and the tall building collapsed in front of my eyes!
What the is going on?
I was stunned, and I couldn't figure it out. I just suddenly remembered one thing - I remember that Jing Lianhong wrote on the coffin board that when he built this garden for the emperor Lao'er, most of them were hastily, and many buildings were only built with a roof frame...... Could it be that the collapse of this Jiaxiu Tower is doomed?
But why didn't it collapse sooner or later, but it collapsed at this juncture? To say that it is a coincidence is too unconvincing.
I slowly woke up from the shock, and an ominous thought suddenly popped into my head, but before I could think about it, I saw two small black shadows fly out of the crumbling ruins in the dark night.
"Yikes!" The girl screamed in that direction.
I immediately recognized those two things, none other than the two-headed white birds of the Xuanyuan people......
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" The girl shouted in panic, "Dadong, they are in the ruins!" ”
