Chapter Seventy-Eight: White Dragon Ants
Although I don't know what kind of ghost fetus Liu is pregnant with, but it is certain that he has no good intentions, this way of squeezing toothpaste is really disliked, the fat man and I are both acute, where can I stand him like this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Anyway, Liu Blind is unknown, and we don't have much trust in him, so we have to force him to confess with such words.
Liu is blind only when we really want to anoint the soles of our feet and slip away. He couldn't see with his eyes, but with how good his ears were, he was okay in the face of these thousands of ants, and he naturally knew in his heart that it was powerful. But after all, this Liu blind man is a living zombie who has lived alone in the cave for more than 20 years, and his heart is really good, and after a little stunned, he recalled it and said to me: "The head is not to want the gold and silver wealth, and it is not impossible to go out the same way, but you may forget, the plank road at the top can not reach the end, that is, you have the trick to face the monster with the inverted jaw, or the blood-sucking monster." ”
It's not unusual to be able to say that the crocodile, after all, no matter where he comes from, he has to meet the crocodile, but he said the monster of the Seven Corpse Eel, that is to say, he has walked the road we have walked before, but the strange thing is that those mechanisms were not destroyed by him, could it be that this guy also knows how to break the level and avoided those mechanisms? Such speculation is obviously a bit of nonsense.
With the intention of curiosity, I sneered and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint my predecessors, not to mention that the whirltooth crocodile has been killed by us, since we can get here, the seven corpse eels have already been dealt with by us, I'm afraid that if we go back now, there will be no danger at all." ”
Liu was blind, but his heart was like a mirror, and he also sneered at my words: "Have a good head, since you can kill those seven corpse eels, you must have a trick to deal with these white dragon ants, and you don't have to worry about the blind man, then the head will leave." ”
I was shocked, and I was stunned, but the fat man couldn't hold back on the side, and scolded: "His grandmother's, Zou Yi, let's ignore him, go back first, and wait for the old blind man to be eaten by ants, lest he be here and we here." ”
Blind Liu's words made my heart move, the white dragon ant was afraid of the lime wall, lime must be better than torches, so I said to Blind Liu: "Senior, wait here, my three brothers will not accompany you to consume." ”
The three of them carried torches in front, walking and retreating, and after a short time, everyone retreated to the entrance of the passage, and turned around to see that Liu Blind Man stood on the protruding stone platform with one foot at some point, and the size of the stone platform was only enough for him to step on with one foot. Looking at his appearance, it would not be difficult to change to the twenty years ago when the golden rooster was independent for an hour or two, but the current situation is very different.
I laughed secretly in my heart, this blind man is still playing with his heart at this time, at this time, don't say that I stepped forward to push him, that is, I shot him in the air, and I can also startle him down, fortunately, I am not a master who takes advantage of people's danger, otherwise he would have fed the ants at the moment, and said to himself in his heart.
Holding tools in my hand, I found a place that was relatively far away, and shaved lime on the wall, all of which were sprinkled on my feet, and after a short time, the lower half of our bodies were dyed white by lime, so I was still a little uneasy, after all, I was faced with such a mindless thing, and filled with a bag of lime powder, fortunately, the lime powder wall was thick enough, and the wall was still white after digging more than 20 centimeters.
When I stood up and saw the hole in the wall that was twenty centimeters deep, I was a little speechless, so I asked the fat man: "Little fatty, your uncle doesn't know how to move a position, do you have to punch holes in the same place?" Are you a fucking pangolin? ”
The fat man took a step back, and seemed to realize that there was something wrong with what he was doing, so he picked up the shovel and knocked it twice in the hole, and said, "What is this, isn't it just a hole, isn't it that you haven't dug it yet, and besides, you don't know that I started quickly." ”
I didn't pay much attention to the fat man's words, it should be that I and emma were attracted by the sound of his shovel knocking in the hole just now, and hurriedly turned on the flashlight and stepped forward to plane with a shovel, but saw that there was an animal skull in the hole, and there was a crack in the middle, Xu was knocked by the fat man's shovel, Rao is so this skull also surprised us a lot, the fat man was about to exclaim, I covered his mouth, and pointed to Liu Blind, who was independent of the golden rooster.
Such an important discovery cannot be easily told to him, it is necessary to let him stand a little longer, he can squeeze toothpaste, and I can also whet his appetite, depending on who can endure it.
I asked Emma, "Is this a dragon head?" ”
Emma shook her head: "After all, dragons are imaginary things, it can't really appear here, I think it should be other animals like horse heads." ”
The fat man said, "I think I will take it out first, and then say, the one with horns is a dragon, and the one without horns is a horse." ”
Anyway, I worked with the fat man to dig the wall for a while, and sure enough, two horns were cut out on the skull, which looked a bit like antlers, but now on this skull, it made this skull look a little more mysterious, more like a dragon's skull, and definitely not a horse's head as emma.
Seeing this, the three of them couldn't help but be a little surprised, is there really a dragon in this world? The dragon culture that has been passed down for thousands of years, does it really exist?
I've always thought that the so-called dragons and phoenixes and other creatures are a kind of beauty that people imagine out of thin air, but this thing in front of me has to make me a little suspicious of this so-called beauty.
Emma suddenly seemed to think of something, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "Zou Yi, you said earlier that those mercury corpses are shaped like dragons and phoenixes, right?" ”
I nodded puzzled, she pointed to the other wall opposite the skull, I immediately understood what she meant, here opposite the dragon is the phoenix, the other wall is mostly the phoenix bones, but I still don't understand, the bones of the dragon and the phoenix buried in the wall are related to the meaning, what does this have to do with the white dragon ants crawling on the ground.
The graphics on the wall are only people and phoenixes, but the mercury corpse on the ground is posed with dragons and phoenixes, and dragon skulls also appear on the wall of this passage, which seems to be too out of tune.
The concept of dragon and phoenix is not too long, the legendary dragon and phoenix are actually two species at all, the phoenix is the emperor of the white bird, the phoenix and the phoenix are a pair, there is a poem in the Han Dynasty, called "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" is the love story of Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun of the Western Han Dynasty. Although it is a poem, it also fully shows that the phoenix and the phoenix are a pair, and they have nothing to do with the dragon at all.
The love of the dragon and the phoenix is mostly evolved from the royal family in later generations, because the emperor is the son of heaven, calling himself the true dragon son of heaven, and the image of the dragon also represents the emperor, relatively speaking, his genuine wife and queen, but can no longer be represented by the dragon, after all, the dragon is a fetish that represents masculinity, in that society where men are inferior to women, men are higher than women, and they find a relatively feminine phoenix, but in fact, the phoenix and the phoenix represent the male, and the phoenix represents the female.
In order to distinguish the emperor's emperor and the phoenix's phoenix, it was also a taboo in that year, so the phoenix became a female, and the phoenix was rarely mentioned, and over time, the word phoenix became a bird and became synonymous with the queen.
The fat man said, "What's so difficult about this, I think most of them are buried here." If you encounter a phoenix in front of you, it should be a dragon here. ”
This possibility is too small, after all, the original function of this ancient tomb was an altar, not a joint burial tomb as the fat man said, if it was really a joint burial tomb as he said, then the two corpses should not be so far apart.
Liu Blind stood on the stone platform for a long time and didn't see any movement, estimating that he couldn't stand anymore, and when he heard the sound of our words, he said: "How many heads can you figure it out?" If you want to solve the mystery of the dragon and phoenix, you will first save the blind man. ”
At this time, we discussed and had every clue, and after listening to Liu's blind words, I smiled and said: "If the seniors are willing to tell the truth, we are not unwilling to save you, but the seniors know too much, and we have to guard against it." ”
Liu Blind smiled, and even shook his body for a while, and finally stabilized his figure, and then said: "You can rest assured, the blind man is not blind, you saved the blind man from the stone wall cage, the blind man should be grateful to Dade, I was just afraid that you would not save the blind man to leave, so I had the heart to hide it." As long as you point to Master Jin Zu and swear a poisonous oath, you will never leave the blind man and leave alone, and I should tell what I know. ”
Blind Liu really regards us as the captain of the school, we are not the one who touches the gold, naturally it doesn't matter if we swear, where can the master of the gold ancestor know who we are, and he has not passed on any skills to us, and he can't blame us, let alone what we swear, the three of them looked at each other, and then they swore five thunders one after another. Although the poisonous oath has been made, it is really about to come to that helpless time, let's each protect our lives and go back to our own homes.
Blind Liu nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Captain Jin, since you have sworn a poisonous oath, the blind man will no longer hide it, you can see the stone platform under my feet, and you must have collected enough lime in your hand..."
This white dragon ant is afraid of lime, the stone platform is open on all sides, only four stone pillars support, according to Liu Blind said, we sprinkled lime on the ground, all the way into it, it is strange to say, these white dragon ants touched the lime and turned into pus, but no longer smoked.
The fat man walked in the middle with An Changwei on his back, emma and I went one after the other, and after a short time, the four of them came to the front of the blind man, the blind man heard the sound, and immediately jumped off the stone platform, both legs were freed, and he couldn't stand it anymore, his hands held his legs and trembled, and his mouth kept chattering: "It's dangerous." ”
The lime was sprinkled on three sides of the stone platform, leaving only one side for the white dragon ants to enter and exit, in the words of Liu Blind, it can't be forced too hard, just like a person fleeing for his life, the people in front know that there is no way out, and the people behind are not clear so they are still desperately rushing forward, and soon squeeze this road through, and then they can really only wait.
Just as he was about to ask him what to do next, Liu Blind put his hand into the lime bag, his hands were covered with lime, grabbed it on the stone platform, and turned it vigorously in one direction, you can imagine how much strength a person who has not seen the sun for more than 20 years can have, sweat wet his beard, but he has not seen the stone platform move for half a minute.
Seeing that he touched the lime and stretched out his hand to turn the stone platform, I also followed his example, but I brought an extra cotton glove, which was stuffed with lime powder, and with a slight shake, the lime powder fell out along the hole of the glove, and the stone platform was fruited when I reached out, and I turned towards a square like Liu Blind.
It didn't take much effort, the thing was easily turned, and as the stone platform turned, there was a clicking sound below, and the surrounding termites also became restless, and one by one they no longer ate the mercury corpses, but seemed to desperately drill into the stone platform, as if they had encountered something terrible.
Blind Liu also heard the clue, and hurriedly shouted to me: "Turn quickly, make two more sounds, and let go quickly." ”
Hearing this, I increased the strength of my hand, turned twice desperately, and did not dare to stay for a moment, so I jumped backwards.
As soon as he gained a firm foothold, he looked forward with the flashlight in his hand, and I don't know why, the mercury corpses that were cut down by the fat man and eaten by these white dragon ants now formed a whirlpool, sucking these white dragon ants into the whirlpool, and the white dragon ants that escaped from it surged into the stone platform like a tide, and the scene suddenly became very spectacular, like a hundred white whirlpools, desperately absorbing the surrounding things.
The whirlpools did not diminish for a moment, but intensified, and the surrounding sand and gravel were constantly sucking towards the center of each whirlpool, and the sapper shovel that the fat man threw away was almost corroded and sucked into it by the nearest whirlpool at this moment.
Where could the three of them expect this situation, they were horrified, and they all turned their heads to look at Liu Blind, Liu Blind grabbed the fat man's arm with one hand, but his face looked unusually relaxed, compared to his movements and expressions were really a little out of contrast, the fat man really couldn't stand it, and said: "Blind, your uncle, what is the situation, if you want to give a perfect explanation, Lao Tzu slashed you with a sword." ”
Blind Liu waved his hand again and again, and said, "Don't worry, this situation is also my expectation, have you seen the difference between the two standing mercury corpses?" ”
looked at the two mercury corpses he said, but at this moment, he found that the pottery armor on the mercury corpse was peeled off by the surrounding whirlpools, revealing a complete human form.
The three of them were shocked, so they asked Liu Blind what was going on, and Liu Blind said, "These mercury corpses are half male and half female, and I just figured out this." (To be continued.) )
