Chapter 181: The Beetle Appears
Chapter 181: The Beetle Appears
The pitch-black passage has no effect on me, although Zhao Xinting and Liu Xingyu have not reached the second realm, but with glasses, they can still see clearly.
The passage is a bit rugged, with rocks underfoot, but as you descend, your eyes gradually open up.
It didn't take long for a skull to suddenly appear in my sight, standing on a rock, I don't know if it was man-made, but this skull looked a few years old, and the position of the nose and mouth had almost become a big hole.
Next, the further you go, the more bones appear in sight, but because of the time, most of the bones have weathered, no longer a miserable white color, and they are covered with dust, even if they are all over the passage, it does not bring much fear.
At the same time, I also saw a lot of rusty, rotten guns, according to Liu Xingyu's identification, this is indeed the rifle used by the devil at the beginning.
Although the old man had said it before, what he heard was far less real than what he saw with his own eyes.
The mystery of the disappearance of thousands of devils can be regarded as completely solved, but why so many people have been sucked into here is still a mystery, is it true to the old man said?
But how did the other party cover the stone in the first place?
Putting these problems aside, the three of us and a dog continued to walk along the cave towards the inside, and at the same time, I also clenched the peachwood sword, and my consciousness came out of my body, paying close attention to every move around me, but the black beetle that the old man said had not been found so far.
But even so, I don't dare to take it lightly, and my mind is highly focused.
"Look, what's there?" Suddenly, Zhao Xinting pointed to the distance and said.
In fact, I found out long before Zhao Xinting spoke out.
It was boxy and no more than half a meter high, but unexpectedly, it was clean and free of any dust, as if someone had cleaned it every day, but strangely, I didn't find any footprints around the altar.
To test my suspicions, I walked briskly to the altar and circled around it, surrounded by a layer of dust, and as soon as I walked by, I left a circle of footprints.
There is no trace, but why is it so clean on the altar? Is it possible to fly?
I thought to myself and raised my head, this is a wide underground cave, only four or five meters high, and there is no passage found on it, but this is strange, could it be that it was cleaned by ghosts?
"What is this?" Zhao Xinting leaned in and asked.
"It should be an altar." Although there are many moire carvings on it, and there are notches that look like human blood vessels, I am still not 100% sure that this is an altar.
After all, in the depths of this mountain, there is such a platform in an underground cave, and it is surrounded by white bones, which makes this place full of a strange feeling.
"Liu Yang, look." At this time, Liu Xingyu suddenly pointed to a few still intact bones and shouted at me.
"This is the old man's buddy?" After all, there are decades in between, so the two bones can be seen at a glance, and according to the old man's words, these four corpses should be his four good brothers.
And there is indeed a dark river not far away, as for whether it can be connected to the Yellow River, it is difficult to draw conclusions without verification.
"Tidy up first, and take them out when we get out." I thought about it and said, and then Liu Xingyu took out a knitted bag from his bag, obviously thinking about it for a long time.
As he worked on the bones, I made a slight leap to the altar.
Condescendingly, the notches on it made me feel more and more uncomfortable.
"Hey, what is this?" Suddenly, I saw something black in one of the corners.
"Is this blood?" I removed the black piece with my fingers, and after I made it closer, I realized that it was indeed a dried blood essence.
"How can there be blood here?" I was getting more and more confused.
"Wang, woo......" Doudou, who had been following Zhao Xinting, suddenly shouted, then bit Zhao Xinting's clothes and dragged her to leave.
"Liu Yang, there is danger here." As the owner of Doudou, Zhao Xinting naturally knew what Doudou represented like this, and immediately shouted at me when she saw that it was not good.
"Everybody go to the altar, hurry up." When Doudou screamed, I was already faintly aware of something, and when Zhao Xinting shouted, the bad premonition in my heart had reached its peak.
Hearing my words, Liu Xingyu was the first to react, and he didn't even care that there was still the last corpse that had not converged, so he hurriedly ran over with the braided belt, and then threw the thing up and turned it onto the altar.
Although Zhao Xinting reacted slowly, after seeing Liu Xingyu's actions, if she couldn't react, she would be a fool.
After Zhao Xinting and Doudou both went to the altar, I heard a rustling sound in my ears, dense and creepy.
Then, a black ocean came rushing in from all directions.
Looking at the seemingly endless beetles, I only felt a tingling in my scalp, and at the same time I felt a faint regret in my heart, when the old man mentioned the beetles, I was still a little unimpressed, and even felt that after decades, the beetles had already died.
But the scene in front of me almost made me almost turn and run away, after all, there were so many beetles.
"Liu Yang, hurry up and find a way, what should we do?" The girl herself was afraid of this kind of thing, not to mention that she was still a little dense phobia, and at this time she was already holding my arm with both hands, her nails were deeply sunk in it, and her voice was crying.
"Don't worry, don't be afraid, we'll be fine, do you see the dark river over there? I'll throw you over as a last resort, these bugs are afraid of water, as long as you get in the water, you'll be safe. I patted Zhao Xinting on the shoulder, comforting her as I took out the peachwood sword, and my consciousness was ready to trigger the séance at any time.
"Liu Yang, are you afraid?" Liu Xingyu took two steps closer to me and asked in a low voice.
"It's just some small bugs, there's nothing to be afraid of, if it's not good later, remember to listen to my arrangement." I explained to Liu Xingyu, and then focused my attention on these beetles.
After talking for a while, countless beetles had poured out of the surroundings, and the altar was surrounded layer by layer, posing as if it was going to be trapped.
"Why aren't these beetles moving?" Although she is the most scared person, it is also for this reason that Zhao Xinting will observe more carefully.
After she said this, I also discovered the problem, that is, after the beetles surrounded the altar, they did not continue to do anything else.
