Chapter 43: Under the Quicksand
Chapter 43: Under the Quicksand
(There is also a chapter in the afternoon or evening)
"With your own blood?" I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously lowered my head to look at Lan's injured hand. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Then the fat man said, "What's all the fuss about. Nourishing with qi and blood, isn't this the way you southerners raise Gu? ”
"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense." I gave the fat man a blank look, "Gu cultivation is only available in remote areas, and now many places have disappeared." ”
The fat man sighed and muttered to himself when he was going to Yunnan to ask for a **** to come back.
I ignored the fat man and turned to look at Lan. Ask her, "I just saw that you seem to be able to command these bugs?" Then I'm ...... with the fat man."
Before I could finish my sentence, Lan shook his head. The fat man took over the conversation and asked, "Hey, Sister Lan, can't you command them, then let them take us over." ”
Lan looked at the quicksand pool next to him: "The area of this quicksand pool is too big. I'm not sure how long I'll be able to control these bugs. In case they suddenly lose control in the middle, then there is no other choice but to die. ”
I glanced at the swarms that were still tumbling on the edge of the quicksand pool, and they seemed to be waiting for Ran to step on it again.
"I believe in you." I said, "Even if it's hanging in here, then I'll admit it." ”
The fat man was a little surprised, and came over and reached out and touched my forehead: "It's not hot, why are you talking nonsense?" ”
I slapped the fat man's hand off: "Is there a choice now?" ”
The fat man thought for a moment and sighed. Then he walked to Lan's side, and said with some flattery: "Hey, what is that, Sister Lan." Look, fat man, my body type, can you get more bugs to come over to my side? I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on, and then the boat will capsize - the fat man will capsize the boat. In case it bothers you......"
Lan raised his hand to stop the fat man and told him to stop talking. Then he walked to the edge of the quicksand pool, took off his gloves and unwrapped the bandage, revealing the wound he had just made.
I watched as Lan shook his palm, once again plunging his blood-soaked palm into the quicksand. And this time, the bugs that stayed on the surface seemed to have become even crazier because they were contaminated with Lan's blood. I don't think they have wings, or they probably can go to the sky now.
Lan's palm was inserted into the quicksand this time for more than half a minute. During this time, I noticed that Lan's lips were rapidly turning white, and the blood on her face had lightened a lot. I wanted to go up and stop her. But the fat man winked at me. It means that if you want to get something, you have to exchange something.
I looked at Ran's hand in the quicksand. Her entire palm was gone, and even half of her arm was stuck in the quicksand.
According to general life experience, if the palm of the hand is cut, even if it hurts the bone, the speed of blood loss will not be so fast. Moreover, there are no too thick blood vessels on the palms of the hands, and the speed of blood loss is impossible to make people's lips and face turn white in just one minute. Then there is only one possibility.
There's something underneath the quicksand sucking Lan's blood.
I was stunned when I thought about it. What's next? Are these bugs? These bugs are bloodthirsty, but I didn't see them attack Lan for her blood. Is there anything down there that we don't see? Thinking about it, I broke out in a cold sweat. A very bad premonition instantly filled my whole body.
Before blasting the stone door, Lan heard a snoring sound inside, saying that something was sleeping inside. Of course, the fat man and I heard it, but I thought it was just a rumor, so I didn't pay much attention to it. When the fat man blew the stone door open, I forgot about it. Now that I think about it, I don't see that snoring sound that looks like something sleeping.
Thinking about it, my eyes fell on Lan's hand stuck in the quicksand. The thought in my heart scared me.
Could that thing be under this quicksand? Or is it because it's sucking Lan's blood right now?
No way!
I told the fat man about this idea, and the fat man was also shocked. It was obvious that he had forgotten about the snoring as well. As soon as I reminded him, the fat man immediately became alert. I saw the fat man cautiously walking to Lan's side to find out. Unexpectedly, before he could get closer, the insects around Lan suddenly gathered. Directly behind Lan, a wall of insects so high was formed.
Looking at the reaction of those bugs, I suddenly felt a chill in my body. How is it that these worms seem to be wise, and still know the protector?
The fat man was also stunned, and he pulled out his knife and wanted to knock out the insect wall in front of him. Kelan's voice came from behind: "If you don't want to die, don't touch them." ”
The fat man was stunned again, and the big white dog leg in his hand didn't fall down after he lifted it.
After standing by and watching for a while, the fat man put the dog's leg back into the scabbard and retreated.
"How?" I asked the fat man.
The fat man shook his head: "What's how?" You heard what she just said. I guess if I touched those bugs just now, maybe your fat man would only have one white bone left now. ”
I rolled my eyes: "Is that an exaggeration?" ”
"No?" The fat man's eyes widened and he pointed to Lan, who was still squatting on the ground. Q: "Do you know what she's doing?" ”
I shook my head and asked, "Playing with sand?" ”
"This quicksand pool is for sacrifices. At that time, the sacrificial method was to bleed living people or animals directly into this quicksand pool. As he spoke, the fat man pointed to an unknown animal skull floating on the sand not far away: "The insects below here will be stimulated by the smell of blood, and they will all go out." The consequence is that only bones are left after being eaten. ”
I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Lan: "Then she ...... Isn't this looking for death? ”
The fat man patted me on the shoulder: "Don't worry, since her blood can attract insects but not be attacked by insects, it must be some life-saving trick." The fat man paused as he spoke, and then said, "No one would be so stupid, knowing that it was a dead person who sent it." ”
As soon as the fat man finished saying this, I saw that Lan's body was crooked when he was squatting on the edge of the quicksand, and the whole person fell directly to the ground.
"Holy!" I exclaimed.
The fat man thought I was praising him, and just wanted to say that he should be humble, but I pulled Chaolan to look over.
The fat man was also stunned when he saw Lan: "Hey, why is she ......?"
Before the fat man could finish speaking, I interrupted him: "Hurry up and save people." ”
The fat man sighed, raised his leg and prepared to go over. But after a few steps, he retreated. I asked him what was wrong. The fat man raised his knife and pointed at Lan. I saw that those insects formed a wall of insects that was even higher than just now, and once again surrounded Lan. (To be continued.) )
