Chapter 7: The Five Poisons
As he spoke, he was about to chase after him to take a look, but he was pulled by the Yin Lord: "Hey, hey, don't you want to die?" There's another graveyard ahead, and you're going to test the trap with your physical body? ”
Hearing this, Huo Xiaolu looked at it, and there was another tomb behind the door, but it looked much more spacious than the previous one, but the style was still exactly the same. He held on to the stone door www.biquge.info looked inside, and said curiously, "Huh? It looks clean and clean, and there are no obstacles, so it's a good view, but where did the guy you saw who might have been a servant of the shadows gone? ”
The Lord of the Shadows pointed to the wall of the tomb and said, "If I say that it escaped into the wall, do you believe it or not?" ”
This time, Huo Xiaolu didn't rush to conclusions, but took out a walnut that he had put in his trouser pocket from the outside, and pointed it far away against the wall, his eyes narrowed, looking like he was going to throw it over.
Seeing him take out such a thing from his pocket, the other two suddenly felt that their heads were full of black lines, and Huo Liuli asked, "Xiaolu, haven't you eaten enough?" How did you come here and still have this with you? ”
While aiming carefully, Huo Xiaolu said: "It's not that I haven't eaten enough, this is something that I didn't know what happened to fall into my pocket when I ate before, and I only found out after I came down, and now it just comes in handy." ”
As soon as Hua finished speaking, he threw his right hand forward, and the walnut flew in an arc towards the wall of the tomb. I only heard a "pop", and the hard walnut shell smashed against the stone wall with a crisp sound, and then it fell to the ground and rolled to the side.
Huo Xiaolu turned around and shrugged towards the Yin Lord: "It looks like a normal stone wall, there is no mechanism, that thing you saw can't be a ghost, right?" ”
The Yin Lord could only pout: "I only saw an afterimage, and I didn't observe it clearly, but it did disappear on the wall, I can't be mistaken." ”
At this time, Huo Liuli said: "According to common sense, the ferocity of the sharp weapons in this tomb is too strong, and it is impossible for ordinary ghosts and spirits to exist, so I think what you see should be the 'Yin Servant' that we have not figured out, and only this mysterious thing can come and go freely in this kind of dangerous tomb." ”
Both nodded, both feeling reasonable. Now that the other party has disappeared, there is no need to delay too long on this issue for the time being, so let's prepare to pass the next level.
At this time, Huo Liuli pointed to the tomb in surprise and said, "Look at it! ”
Yin Lord and Huo Xiaolu didn't know why, they looked in the direction of her finger together, and at this look, they couldn't help but gasp.
I saw that under the light of the pearl on the top, on the flat ground of the tomb, the walnut that Huo Xiaolu threw into it changed. Under the intently gaze of the three people, the walnuts gradually turned black from the bottom, and the color became darker and darker. When the black color spread to the whole body of the walnut, after about a second, the black walnut was like a fragile fragrant ash, quietly peeling off layer by layer, and soon, only a pair of black powder was left on the ground.
"This ...... What's going on? Huo Xiaolu didn't understand what was going on at all, so he could only turn to the two relatively well-informed people behind him.
The Yin Lord did not make a direct judgment, but asked Huo Liuli: "What do you think?" ”
Huo Liuli frowned and said: "It's not like a spell, it's not like it's corrosion, it's not like it's a high temperature, then, it is estimated that it can only be ......."
A thought flashed through Huo Xiaolu's mind, and he shouted, "Could it be poison?" ”
The Yin Lord nodded: "It is estimated that it can only be like this, it seems that this tomb is smeared with an extremely powerful poison, and it is not only effective against flesh and blood." ”
Swallowing his saliva with some fear, Huo Xiaolu said, "Looking at the fate of that walnut, I don't think it will be much better than it if we go in." ”
Then he thought of a possibility, and said in horror: "You say, will there be gas poison in this?" We've been smelling it here for most of the day, so it's not already poisoned into the bone marrow, right? ”
After hearing his worries, Huo Liuli smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, there will be no artificially set toxins in the tomb, because no matter how powerful the toxin is, it is impossible for it to exist in the air for thousands of years and become ineffective, so if the toxin is to be arranged in the ancient tomb, it must be sealed very well, and an ingenious mechanism can be used to kill the tomb." We haven't seen any traps activating right now, so it's clear that there's nothing poisonous about the gas here. ”
Huo Xiaolu was relieved and said, "That's good, that's good." ”
At this time, Huo Liuli plucked one of his long hair, handed it to the Yin Lord, and said, "Come, take my hair and try it." ”
Taking his hair, the Yin Master nodded. Harness your mana, let the hair float in the air, and fly slowly into the graveyard.
He carefully manipulated his hair, rubbing the ends of his hair against the wall, and slowly flew towards the end of the tomb. Just as he thought, the stone walls on both sides of this place were also coated with poison, and looking at the hair and the walls rubbing against the fire, it seemed that there was more than one kind of fire, whether blue or black.
By the time the hair of Huo Liuli was eroded by the toxin, the Yin Lord had already completed his observation. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's not too bad. ”
"Do you see what's going on?" Huo Liuli asked him.
The Yin Lord pointed to the tomb and said, "There are a total of five kinds of poisons in it, which are on the left wall, the right wall, and the ground, and there is a stone gate at the end of the top. If I'm not mistaken, these five poisons are what the folk call the 'five poisons'. ”
As soon as he heard this, Huo Xiaolu wrenched his fingers and said, "That is, snakes, scorpions, centipedes, toads and spiders?" Is this the poison of these five animals? ”
"No, you're not right." The Yin Lord corrected him while looking at the tomb: "There are actually no spiders in the so-called five poisons of the folk, which is due to later misinformation, which leads people to think that spiders are also one of the five poisons, in fact, it should be a gecko." ”
Huo Xiaolu was a little surprised: "Gecko? What's so toxic about that little thing? ”
The Yin Lord continued to explain to him: "In the past, it was believed that geckos would enter people's ears and shed their tails in them to make people deaf, so they included it in the five poisons. Others believe that geckos' urine is poisonous and can cause blindness and skin ulcers. But none of these statements are true. ”
"So that means the gecko is not poisonous? So what's going on with the five poisons here? ”
The Yin Lord corrected: "Most of them are not poisonous, and there are a very few species of geckos that are still poisonous, and they are still highly poisonous, and what we see in front of us is one of them. ”
Huo Xiaolu, who only understood at this time, nodded and said, "Okay, I know." So what to do now, is it possible to find an antidote to pass? ”
Huo Liuli said with some puzzlement: "I still have a question. It's been so long, why is the toxicity still so strong here? Isn't it volatile at all? ”
Pointing to the tomb, the Yin Lord explained: "This is very simple, this is not a natural rock, but a stone slab that is solidified after stirring the stone powder with the venom of the five poisons, which is considered artificially synthetic. ”
Hearing him say this, Huo Liuli and Huo Xiaolu both squatted on the ground and looked carefully, and sure enough, the stone here did look a little different, it looked rough and messy, giving people a very awkward feeling.
In this way, Huo Liuli has no idea: "Then what do you say?" You can't really find an antidote like Huo Xiaolu said, right? ”
The Yin Lord shrugged: "Actually, it used to be very simple. Path, on. ”
"Huh?" Huo Xiaolu was obviously stunned, and then hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, Yin Lord, you can't get used to me and can't harm me at this time, right?" As soon as I walked up, I didn't have only ashes left. ”
At this time, Huo Liuli also said thoughtfully: "Oh...... I see, 'Golden Crow', right? ”
The Yin Lord nodded: "That's right, the 'Golden Crow' physique is one of the most buggy physiques in the world, as long as you stimulate the Gang Qi in your body, no matter what spell or poison you can't hurt in the slightest." ”
Huo Xiaolu nodded to show that he understood, but the expression on his face was still hesitant: "But I don't know how to use that kind of qi, what should I do?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Yin Lord quickly slapped his back with lightning speed, Huo Xiaolu suddenly felt that his whole body was warm, and there was also a feeling of swelling, as if something in his body had brewed to the critical point of saturation, and he felt a little unhappy.
The Yin Lord told him: "Take a deep breath, relax the muscles of your whole body, let the Gang Qi in your body gush out naturally, and then you just need to boldly move forward, the time of a pillar of incense is enough." ”
Although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, Huo Xiaolu still took a deep breath and raised his legs and stepped into the tomb. As he inhaled, a white glow began to emerge from his entire body, enveloping him tightly. Seeing this, he calmed down a little and continued to walk inside. At this time, his mentality was excellent, the state of the whole person was very natural, and the Gang Qi in his body was also stimulated by him to the point of perfection.
He began to walk inside with confidence and boldness, and he was pleasantly surprised that his feet sneered along the way, but it didn't hurt him in the slightest. This tomb road was a little shorter than the previous one, and Huo Xiaolu soon came to an end.
Wrapped in translucent white light, Huo Xiaolu walked to the position of the stone gate, looked at the lock, and said, "What kind of lock is this?" How to open? ”
The answer to him was that the Soul Drinker flew through the air, and quickly stabbed the lock with precision, shattering the lock to pieces.
