Chapter 4: Corpse Poison
"What's wrong?" The fat man sat on the ground and asked suspiciously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I made a silent gesture with my index finger out and whispered, "We may have been discovered, and these people don't know if they're friend or foe." ”
The gunfire lasted for more than twenty minutes, and the world became quiet again, and after a while, footsteps were heard from under the city walls, followed by a man who said, "The door is sealed!" ”
"Explode!" A sweet female voice said.
I suddenly shuddered, this voice couldn't be more familiar, almost one after another ran into my dream, this person was Yao Xiwen.
It didn't take long for the chaotic footsteps to fade away, and then there was a loud bang, and I even felt the whole tower shake with it, so frightened that I and the fat man looked up at the roof in a panic.
This seemingly adobe castle is quite sturdy, but it has not collapsed, which shows that the construction attainments of the ancients have reached a certain height, which is also the pride of our Chinese nation.
"Stinky! Almost killed Lao Tzu! The fat man muttered quietly.
There was another sound of footsteps under the city, and then the sound of many people moving the stones, presumably with the stone statues in the door, exploded.
Suddenly, I only felt a small evil wind blowing down my head, cold and biting, and this wind poured directly into the castle tower along the staircase.
The fat man tightened his coat and complained, "Where the hell is this wind? I'm freezing to death! ”
As soon as the fat man's words fell, I heard a scream from under the city wall, followed by another man, and then one after another, the most terrible screams I had ever heard, and it sounded like a panic, as if these people were suffering greatly.
"Retreat! This smoke is poisonous! Yao Xiwen's panicked voice came, only to hear the sound of chaotic footsteps, they walked around the side of the ancient castle, gradually, the footsteps became farther and farther away.
I poked my head out and looked down at the city, only to see that the gate was in shambles, and there were several corpses of men in black lying on the ground, each of whose faces were already badly ulcerated, and they were clutching their necks with both hands, and some even scratched their necks, and the hot blood was bubbling out one by one, and there were bursts of hot air.
The gravel is mixed with some black debris, as well as the dry bones of animals and people, the dry bones are as black as ink, and there is a trace of black gas, which is corpse poison, and the black debris should be a highly toxic medicinal material that catalyzes the rotting corpse.
These things should come from the inside of the stone statue, when people built this stone statue, they put some rotting corpses together with medicinal herbs into the stone statue, and then sealed, after a period of chemical reaction, the stone statue is full of corpse poison, as long as someone destroys the stone statue, the poison will spread.
The stone statue was placed behind the city gate, apparently to prevent someone from breaking the city gate, and I believe that even if they didn't blow up the stone statue, even if they only opened the city gate, it would trigger the mechanism and release the corpse poison.
And the roof of this city tower is also cleverly built, slightly inclined, for the purpose of driving, once someone breaks the city gate, the roof and the city gate form a transparent trend, here the perennial southeast wind will pour into the passage from the roof, the corpse poison in the stone statue is all blown to the city gate in the northwest direction, it can be seen that the wisdom of the ancients is extraordinary.
"Look, brother!" The fat man shouted from the other side of the tower.
When I came to the other side of the castle tower, I looked in the direction of the castle tower's back, and there was a dark barren land in front of me, and there was no snow on this side, as if this ancient castle tower had divided this place into two worlds.
Yao Xiwen and others had long disappeared in the distance, their speed was strangely fast, the city gate was blown open, the wind in the city tower was stronger than outside, the fat man and I had to drill out the same way, bypassed the city tower, and prepared to continue to search westward, hoping to find a place to settle before dark.
When we walked to the side of the tower, a huge stone standing on the ground caught my attention, such a large stone standing here, obviously man-made, and when we got closer, there were still words on the stone.
Shemales have different paths, this building is the boundary! The eight big characters in italics, although they are old and have been weathered and blurred, still reveal a trace of majesty.
Could it be that this pitch-black scorched earth in front of you is the territory of the demon race? Is the dragon on the bronze mirror hidden in this demon territory? Why hasn't the top operative in Longyan's mouth yet appeared? If you meet Yao Xiwen, I don't know if she will show mercy.
Stepping on the cold black soil under my feet, I immediately felt as if the blood was boiling, and I looked intently, an arc of light flashed in the air from time to time, and I turned my head to look at the fat man, only to see that he looked as if nothing happened, as if he didn't feel anything special.
"Be careful! This is not the right place! I said lightly.
The fat man nodded disapprovingly and said, "First brother, have you noticed that it is a little warmer here than outside?" ”
He was right, the wind here was not as cold and biting as outside, and it was filled with a faint smell of sulfur, giving people the illusion that the black soil under their feet was black powder, but these black soils were definitely not black powder, otherwise the arc in the air would have ignited these black soils.
"First brother! You see! Is it the same wave of people lying there like dead dogs over there? Looking in the direction pointed by the fat man, I saw a person lying on the black soil a few hundred meters away, looking at the little minion who pretended to be with Yao Xiwen, because of the color of the clothes, if you don't look carefully, you won't pay attention at all.
When he came closer, he saw that this person had been charred, and he couldn't see his original face at all, it was like a piece of charcoal, and his facial features were so blurred that he couldn't distinguish his original face, because the high temperature made his torso shrink disproportionately, and he looked like the size of a seven or eight-year-old child, only because his clothes were not too damaged, he could barely recognize that this was a corpse, and it was Yao Xiwen's subordinates.
"First brother! What's going on? Pouring gasoline on it can't burn this virtue? The fat man asked suspiciously.
There was a sudden slight popping sound in the air, I finally knew who the murderer was, the electric charges in the air, maybe the black soil under my feet was all turned black because of the perennial electric shock, I don't know why so many electric charges can be generated out of thin air here.
Suddenly, I was in a trance in front of my eyes, a picture flashed in my mind, I didn't have time to think about it, I dragged the fat man of more than two hundred pounds to his head, the fat man did not react, only to hear a bang, a lightning bolt fell from the sky, just split the fat man just landed in the place, burning the black scorched earth out of an unpleasant smell.
The fat man wiped a handful of cold sweat and said tremblingly: "! God is sneaking up on me! My old Zhang didn't commit any intolerable crimes! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw countless electric arcs flashing in the air, like firecrackers, and passed into the distance.
I frowned, staring blankly at the void in front of me, my mind was in chaos, the natural barrier of nature, human beings could not pass through, I thought we should stop here.
