Chapter 67: The Quartet Fern Altar
This glance is not trivial, I didn't take a breath of cool air, and I didn't care about the fat man with a puzzled face, I quickly took out the fluorescent tube in my backpack, twisted it hard, and threw it directly in the direction of the figure I saw just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Leaflet? Or Cao Xue? Professor Qian Lao and his teammates? Or the survivors in the camouflage uniforms?
As soon as the cold fluorescent tube was taken out of my hand, Cailiu suddenly appeared next to me over the fat man, and I saw her reach out and try to grab the small fluorescent tube flying in the air, but she was helplessly a step too late. I was wondering what Cailiu was doing, and was about to tell her that I saw someone else, but Cailiu said something sullen.
"Bad thing."
After saying that, the fluorescent tube I threw out also fell into the blood not far away.
Different from the military flares held by the tomb robbers, the fluorescent tube configured by our archaeological team is a product that has been improved by the relevant departments, in any case, this professional configuration of the searchlight tool can illuminate the area with a radius of about five meters with condensation light, and the duration is very long, I was also on the suspension bridge for cost savings, so I did not use a lot of this thing to explore the way, this will be thrown into the water, and I immediately understood the meaning of the colorful willow.
The whole body is full of these red to blackened water-like liquid, and it is stored deep in the ground without seeing the light of day, it stands to reason that there should be almost no visibility at this level, but I didn't think that as soon as the fluorescent tube entered the water, the area with a diameter of ten meters below the water surface was illuminated brightly, and the things under the water were so shocking that I almost didn't fall directly into this bloody abyss.
The fat man next to him was already a little afraid of water, but this time he followed me and Cailiu to see something underwater. Rao is he is bold, this time he is also trembling, so he did not fall to the ground weakly, it is no wonder, even when he encountered the strange insects for the first time, everyone was not shocked to the point of being helpless and silent, but at this juncture, we were really scared stupid.
I guess Cailiu, a master in the industry, is also the first time to see that thing underwater, we were dumbfounded, but she groaned in pain and bent down, covering her face with her hands, and when I came back to my senses to take care of her, I saw two lines of blood and tears already flowing down from between her fingers.
I was startled, and hurriedly asked her what was wrong, but she didn't answer me, only closed her two bloody eyes, and felt out the black entanglement that she had removed from her body, and the three of them blindfolded herself, and stretched out the five-colored armor of the Meteorite Feather that had been around her neck - this is the name I gave it myself, and Cailiu had saved me with this thing in the enemy tower of the Urn City before, and I was fortunate enough to come into contact with it, the material gave people a very subtle feeling, some places were soft like brocade, and some parts were as hard as steel, which must be switchable at will; When I was in close contact, the colorful lights above were even softer, and the colorful lights were not gorgeous, so I thought about it and gave it this name in my heart: the five-color armor of the Meteorite Feathers.
At this time, Cailiu surrounded the five-colored armor into a cloak to cover his entire head, and after doing this, Cailiu whispered to me breathlessly:
"You take me on, don't look into the water, and don't make a sound whatever appears around you for a while, don't remember!"
I saw that her eyes wrapped in black cloth were still gurgling with blood and tears, looking very terrifying, and I wanted to ask her what was going on with her eyes, I was afraid that I couldn't continue to go if the blood flowed like this, and Cailiu waved her hand to say that it didn't matter, and said that if I didn't leave now, I wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
I was startled, and the fat man gave a look, the fat man easily withdrew his gaze from the underwater thing, this time there was still a bit of a stupid and stupid trance, I was in a hurry, a slap to his face, the fat man looked at me stunned; I saw that he was about to move his eyes to the bottom of the water again, and he was busy with his face, and pinched his people, and the fat man woke up, and I told him about Cailiu's situation, and when I saw that he nodded with palpitations, I gestured and urged him to hurry up, and it was worse than death to stay here for a second longer.
As soon as she walked, Cailiu's breathing gradually became steady and orderly, and the previous painful expression was fleeting, she walked between me and the fat man, her hands were not on the fat man's shoulders, but the stride was surprisingly consistent with ours, in addition to secretly sighing that this Nizi had the power of gods and ghosts, on the one hand, I was worried about what she said and what we saw, and on the other hand, I was also worried about her eyes, and said, where does this waterway lead? What kind of scene will the main coffin of this ancient merchant tomb be?
Because I had been mentally deserted, I didn't even notice that my surroundings were gradually brightening, and when I looked up, the four corners were already full of dark light, as bright as frost. I was startled, and looked around so that I didn't cry out - I don't know when hundreds of rotting corpses appeared around us.
These dried corpses are like the three of us, not only standing in a row on the surface of the black water in all directions, but also moving slowly in the same direction as us in an orderly manner, the clothes on their bodies have long been rotten and dilapidated to the point that they turn into dust when they encounter the wind, and there is no trace of water in the dry skins, and what is even more creepy is that these dried corpses are glowing with a pale green fluorescence from head to toe, which is very similar to the corpses in the three-story ancient building in the Jade Coffin Tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, There is still a steady stream of dried corpses climbing on the waterway in the blood and water around them, and once these black things come out of the water, their bodies will immediately glow with a faint green light, no exception.
I saw that my hair was flying, and I didn't know what to do, when I suddenly heard the sound of water splashing behind me, and when I looked back, I was shocked that there were several dried corpses climbing up at the end of the waterway where we were walking, and at a quick glance, several of them were already following us with a glowing light.
I was making a fool, Cailiu who was walking in front turned around and stretched out her hand in front of me, and I saw two words written in blood on the palm of her hand - "Quiet, go." As the number of green dried corpses around me became more and more concentrated, the beads of sweat on my forehead became denser and denser, and I found that these strange walking corpses didn't seem to be of much interest to us, and the heart that had been hanging was a little relaxed.
The whole water area of blood is illuminated like day by these countless shining, dry corpses, and because of this, I can see the situation of the whole water area, this place under our feet does not look like a naturally formed space, I found that the whole water area is egg-shaped under the vault, counting the stone figurines when we came, there are similar Yongdao crossings in other similar positions, it seems that there is more than one of these narrow waterways, according to its direction, it is not difficult to see that these waterways are almost all different paths, starting from the four sides of the Yongdao, Then all converge in the middle of the water.
We've been walking along the waterway for some time, and by the light we can get a glimpse of the middle of the water, and if nothing else, the coffin of the owner of the tomb should be there.
After thinking about it, I looked past Cailiu and the fat man and glanced not far in front of them, and at this glance, I suddenly threw Cailiu's instructions out of the clouds, and shouted at the fat man:
"Fatty! Don't go near that! ”
This shout was like a thunderbolt in the quiet world, the fat man stopped his steps, and Cailiu was obviously trembling, I didn't know how to explain it to them, but I was too familiar with what was not far in front of us.
I didn't dare to forget the appearance of the fox-faced ghost girl in the dream, but what impressed me more was the strange cluster of terrifying plants that came out of the tomb and dragged the thieves.
- And this is exactly what is in front of us at this moment.
About fifty meters away from us, there is indeed a circular area, which looks very much like an altar, but in the middle of the altar there is no legendary coffin, but instead there is a huge towering plant, looking at the past from a distance, there are no leaves, but there are countless thick and slender branches, these branches are very much like the tentacles of an octopus, some hang down halfway, some are coiled on the ground, but most of them are like stamens blooming in the air, looking very grotesque, in the middle of these branches there are huge clusters, Something resembling a pitcher plant, a plant, but at first glance it looks like a goose egg, standing like that, and there is no opening in sight, I don't know what it is, but I have lingering palpitations about the tentacles and branches.
In his sleep, the appearance of the big men who were twisted and burst at the narrow hole of the thief resurfaced in front of him.
As soon as I saw this thing, I knew that it was definitely not a good thing, but for a while I didn't have Cailiu's skills to remind the fat man, so I had to open my mouth in a hurry, I wanted to explain it to Cailiu, I didn't want to be between the electric light and flint, I heard the sound of water behind me, my heart was tight, and I could guess without looking back
-- What was just illuminated by the fluorescent tube, this time it will come to life!
How can this be repaid, my face changed suddenly, and I didn't dare to look back, and immediately shouted at the fat man: "Fuck! Run! ”
When a few people took a big stride, I added, "Don't fucking get close to the tree in front of you!" ”
I don't know what kind of plant it is, but the fat man should be able to understand it, at this time, the walking corpses with a faint green light in front of us and behind us started to speak themselves, and they all seemed to wake up, and almost frantically began to run towards the altar in the middle of the water, the scene became extremely chaotic and terrifying for a while, I heard the wind behind me, and I also knew that the walking corpses were coming, and I didn't dare to slack off, and ran like a desperate run on this narrow waterway.
This run, more than fifty meters of footsteps, is not at all like that, and in minutes the three of us stepped on the edge of the circular altar, the road ahead must not be walked, the large cluster of terrifying plants growing in this place is definitely not only ornamental; The back road was also completely blocked, so the three of us became in a state of being attacked on our backs, and we didn't know what to do for a while.
Still the fat man's sharp eyes, he hurriedly swept around, opened his voice and shouted: "Hey! Old Don! There are pillars here! ”
