The stone just covered the gap, and with the roar of the waves outside, a massive creature crawled out of the water, and the ground could be felt trembling under its feet in the crack, and a tooth-aching creak could be heard with each tremor. This is the first time I know what it means to be next to death, the size of that creature is impossible to predict, just passing by the crack where we are, there is a feeling of an earthquake, several times I thought it had found a group of small rats here, to break this crack, fortunately it didn't seem to find it just passing by.

"Earth Dragon? Don't be kidding, isn't the earth dragon an earthworm? I sprinkled the falling gravel on my head, leaned next to Jiang Tao, and said, "This big guy still has a pair of horns." ”

Hu Yang comforted Yang Junjun in his arms and whispered: "If my memory is correct, there should be a Jiao here, but Jiao has no horns, it can't be that it has turned into a dragon, right?" ”

"Shut up! Don't make a sound! ”

Jiang Tao in the dark said coldly: "Who told you that this is a dragon, it is just a worm that takes advantage of the fire to rob." ”

"Bugs?"

Jiang Tao didn't pay attention to me, but quietly listened to the movement outside, and after a while, he pushed away the stone and cautiously went out, and came back to tell us that we were safe, and that the insect might go out to forage for food or bask in the sun.

We did not want to linger for a moment by the pool, and I told him the purpose of my visit, and though I did not know whether he could be trusted, a man who had saved my life twice could find no reason to deceive him. Jiang Tao was expressionless after listening, staring at Hu Yang coldly.

"Take off your gloves!"

Hu raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "What kind of tone are you?" What if I don't take off my gloves! ”

"If you turn into a scaly monster, I'll cut off your head unceremoniously!"

Jiang Tao was stunned when he saw him, reached out and pinched his arm, tore off his gloves to reveal his scaly right hand, took a look at it and let it go, and said: "The poisoning has been very long, and it has been delayed halfway, but unfortunately it will be full of body in another five months." ”

As soon as he saw that he was so correct, he must know how to detoxify this poison.

So I said anxiously, "Do you know how to solve it?" Do you want to use the scales of Jiao to grind into powder? ”

"Who sued you?"

Yang Junjun stood up and said: "It's my grandfather, he helped Hu Yang heal, and he used the scales of Jiao, and the effect is very good." ”

Jiang Tao sneered and said, "What's your grandfather's name?" ”

"My grandfather's name is Liu Xiancheng, he is a professor of medicine, and he is a medicine made from Jiao scales handed down from his ancestors." Yang Junjun said unconvinced: "And there is also an ancient book." ”

Jiang Tao heard her grandfather's name obviously fluttered for a moment, and said to me with a deep groan: "Zhuzi, I don't care how you know about this place, I hope you don't come to this kind of place again, this place is too dangerous, and you don't have a life to go out." ”

He glanced at the Soil Mine 1 tube and a modified gun on our waists, "It's suicide to hunt Jiao with these things." ”

I pointed to Hu Yang's scaly hand and said excitedly, "He's my friend, do you want me to watch him turn into a monster with scales all over his body?" If I can help him get out of his current predicament, then I think it's worth it. If you're in trouble, I'll do the same. ”

Jiang Tao looked at me expressionlessly, sighed and pulled out a long steel knife from the crack and didn't put it on his back, saw my expression of wanting to speak, and interrupted: "You don't ask me about it, I won't say it, there are some secrets that I can't hear, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will sue you, I only say so much when you are a friend, it is your business to listen or not." ”

"Also, my name is not Jiang Tao, you just call me Meng Jian."

Meng Jian looked at the top of the pool with the long knife on his back and said, "Hurry up and leave while it doesn't come back, since you have come in, you can only go out if you break this tomb." ”

The three of us followed him closely, walked to the huge bronze door and examined the structure of the door, he suddenly slammed his hand and pressed on a copper circle, twisted hard, the sound of gears turning came from the bronze door, and the ten-meter-high bronze door body shook, and slowly opened the one-person-wide passage to the left and right and stopped.

Behind the door, a curved tunnel stretched forward for a distance, and then turned straight down, like a spiral ladder, and the surrounding stone walls showed traces of artificial excavation, not only smooth but also wet, the tunnel was in the shape of a cylinder, and I walked on it with a torch, giving me the illusion of walking in the intestines of some giant creature.

At this time, Meng Jian asked us to stop, he squatted down and twisted some kind of viscous liquid on the ground with his hand, smelled it, and said with an expressionless face: "Don't be surprised if you see anything later, don't touch it!" ”

The three of us nodded like rookies, and the further we went, not only did the slime on the ground increase, but also the transparent liquid began to appear on the stone walls, and some of them would fall down to our shoulders, smelling salty and fishy.

Meng Jian said softly: "Don't smell it, it's the liquefied mucus of the corpse!" ”

Hearing him say this, I quickly covered my mouth when I wanted to vomit, only to feel a convulsion in my stomach.

Hu Yang said: "Corpse fluid shouldn't smell like this. ”

Meng Jian looked at him, turned around and walked in, turned his back to him and said, "After a thousand years, you can smell it again." ”

Holding back the discomfort in my stomach, I walked down for a while, and finally got out of this tunnel that looked like an intestine, but the moment I got out of the hole, I shouldn't use any words to describe what I saw in front of me. This strange picture deeply shocked us, Hu Yang and I were a little better, Yang Junjun couldn't help but run to the mouth of the tunnel with his stomach and vomited.

It was a square chamber the size of a basketball court, and the dry dark red walls were sprinkled with a layer of white bones that could not be distinguished from whether they were human or animal, and the slightest step on it would make a crisp cracking sound. The most memorable thing is that in the middle of the secret room stands a big tree covered in blood red, the body of the tree is full of flesh-red branches hanging down from the top of the tree like a sausage full of blood, and some are spread on the ground from below, or climb the wall, almost everywhere, and what is even more strange is that you can vaguely see these branches like intestines wriggling.

I couldn't tell which end of this weird tree was the root, and it seemed like both ends were rhizomes.

"I actually saw a living human coffin tree here." Meng Jian said in surprise: "I didn't expect that Your Majesty... The human coffin tree among the three artifacts that he was trying to find would actually be hidden in such a corner. ”

His voice was very soft, and I didn't hear what he said clearly, but when I heard the artifact, I immediately pricked up my ears and said, "You said this is a artifact?" Such a disgusting fetish? ”

Meng Jian looked at me with disdain, and didn't have time to pay attention to me. Yang Junjun also curiously gathered around to take a look at this artifact, and suddenly she pointed to the center of the tree and fell backwards in fright, shouting: "There are people inside!" ”

"Don't go there."

Meng Jian stepped over and picked up Yang Junjun and threw it over, and after keeping a certain distance from the tree, we breathed a sigh of relief, and it was better to be cautious about such an unknown.

Three meters away, see clearly that there is a red translucent tree in the middle, there is indeed a person inside, to be precise, there is a person, seeing that there is no movement for a long time, it should be just a corpse, so he carefully leaned over, the corpse is separated from us by a layer of red translucent bark, only to see that his facial features are delicate but hairless, naked body, a pair of cold eyes staring at us.

I felt uncomfortable being looked at, and suddenly I realized that something was wrong.

I pointed to the abdomen of the male corpse lying together, and said with a pale face, "He's still alive!" ”

The corpse of thousands of years still breathes, enough to make everyone's muscles tense, Hu Yang raised the pistol and almost fired at the corpse, Meng Jian stopped him, took a closer look, gasped, pulled out the knife behind his back and pinched the handle of the knife vigorously, and the green tendons on his arms bulged.

He gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "the thing, you deserve it too?" ”

After speaking, he raised the knife and was about to poke him in the heart. I hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "What the hell is it, you have to tell us, what if you are really a living person?" ”

Meng Jian stared coldly at the strange corpse in the tree.

"A living person? He didn't want to be a man at all! ”
