Chapter 25: Monsters (2) (Revised Version)

It's a super large octopus, and if we had met it in the ocean, I would have been excited and would have taken pictures of its every move with an underwater digital camera as a souvenir, but now, I don't feel that mood at all, because it's so scary.

This "octopus" has chased and intercepted us to the point of madness, its huge head is occupied by two eyes, seven or eight tentacles as thick as poplars are looking for targets in the air, and when the green light faintly sweeps over our heads, I can even smell a super bad smell of corpses.

The grasshopper covered its nose and muttered, "Did we dig up the prehistoric creatures?" ”

I looked at the behemoth above my head and said, "If it was a dinosaur, I wouldn't be wronged if I died, but this thing is a monster at all."

"It's not a monster." Jiang Yuan looked directly at the "octopus" that was going berserk, and said, "It should be a cave creature living in underground caves, but it is huge, and it can be regarded as one of the species that has not been discovered in prehistory."

"Huh!"

"Chairman Jiang, don't be kidding, have you ever seen a prehistoric cave creature of such a size? In my opinion, this is a prehistoric monster at all. ”

I was still complaining, as if I had forgotten about life and death, but Jiang Yuan made a gesture to Liang Jun, who understood and rushed out with our only aurora miner's lamp.

"The army, run a straight line in the blind spot between its eyes." I craned my neck and yelled.

Liang Jun seemed to hear my words, and he began to adjust the direction he was running, and at the same time, Jiang Yuan took me and the gnats along the rock wall all the way to the depths of the cave, although I knew that Liang Jun must have a way to escape, but I still couldn't help but be a little worried, and I decided to go back to meet him halfway through the run.

Jiang Yuan did not stand in the way of my decision, but gave me a bronze dagger of his own, and in his words, everything depends on my own creation.

I felt very uncomfortable with what I said, but I didn't have the heart to argue with him, so I turned back and hid behind a big rock, and in less than a minute, Jiang Yuan and the Gnats followed, and I hooked their shoulders and said, "It's a brother in the end, enough friends." ”

The gnats smiled bitterly, "Boss, I'm here to help, and Boss Jiang is here to collect the corpse." ”

I was stunned, "Collect the corpse?" Whose? ”

The grasshopper cautiously pointed to my nose, "You." ”

I glared at him fiercely, "You kid is looking for death, dare to curse me." ”

The gnats shrank back with a look of grievance, while Jiang Yuan glanced at me expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "People's life and death have their own certainty, but if someone wants to find death, I can only do my best to bring your body back to the Xiao family." ”

As soon as I heard this, I immediately became angry and scolded: "Jiang Yuan, you kid can't spit out ivory from his dog's mouth, don't you know that the most taboo thing in Xia Dou is to think about life and death?" ”

Jiang Yuan hooked an indifferent smile on his lips, and said: "I'm not here to fight, I'm here to find our family's things, I won't move any of the bright weapons in it, as for Boss Xiao, you can take as much as you want, I can pretend not to see it." ”

I'm already tickling with his angry palms and want to hit someone.

The grasshopper made a pause gesture at us, motioning for us to look ahead, and all we could see was a green glow, hanging faintly on the ground, as if lifeless.

"What's going on?" I asked him.

"How do I know, it looks like it's dead." The grasshopper pouted, and said, "Maybe it's really dead." Brother Dajun is too powerful. ”

Before he could finish speaking, the army appeared not far from us, he was seriously wounded, but they were all external wounds, and they did not hurt the internal organs.

Jiang Yuan suddenly changed his tone when he saw the army, and asked him with concern: "How is it, have you got the things?" ”

Liang Jun nodded and said, "I got it, it was exactly the same as what was said in the letter, it seems that this person knows that history very well." ”

Jiang Yuan took a blood-stained square box from Liang Jun's hand, and when he opened it, the contents glowed with colorful light, which was very beautiful.

"Glass beads." I shouted from the sidelines.

"What did you say?" Jiang Yuan looked at me in surprise.

I glanced at Jiang Yuan and said, "Glass beads, this is a priceless treasure, it is said that when Qin Shi Huang was looking for immortals overseas, the fleet once saw a small island in the vast sea, the island was full of golden light, straight into the sky, and a high tower on the island emitted colorful streamers, like a fairyland. “

"Later, Qin Shi Huang sent people to look for it again, and found three immortal mountains in the same place, which is the legendary Penglai Immortal Island."

"Later, Qin Shi Huang was seriously ill, but he still pursued immortality, and later when Xu Fu went to sea to find the elixir of life for him, he met this island again, and he saw the so-called fairyland on the island, saw the elixir and fairy grass, and this kind of glass beads that grow in the soil."

When I said this, I suddenly felt an itch on my back, and at the same time, Jiang Yuan and they also began to have me, and after everyone took off their shirts, they found that before they knew it, we were already crawling with a small black bug.

Liang Jun threw his lighter at me and said, "Burn your clothes, this thing is afraid of fire." ”

I turned on the lighter and lit the gnat's clothes, which only wore cotton clothing, so his clothes were lit low, but they were extinguished after a while without burning.

But just after a while, most of the black bugs on our bodies disappeared, and the rest was not much of a threat, looking at the clothes covered by bugs on the ground, no one dared to pick them up and wear them again.

The three of them followed Liang Jun half-naked all the way forward, and the direction we walked was the direction that Jiang Yuan had just taken us to, and this direction was simply to continue to move forward deep underground.

The more we walked, the colder it became, but the road under our feet became smoother and smoother, and we could even feel the humidity of the surrounding air when we walked into the depths, and from time to time there were water droplets dripping from above, and the battery consumption in our equipment was the fastest, at this time, there were only four No. 1 batteries left, that is, we only had two strong flashlights as lighting, and they were the last lighting tools before we went out from here.

As I walked, I felt someone behind me, and instinctively, I tried to slow down as much as possible, and even stopped to listen to the movement behind me, the ticking sound seemed to be a bell that girls like to wear on their hands.

"Jiang Yuan."

Jiang Yuan stopped and looked back at me and said, "What's wrong?" ”

I looked back at the darkness behind me, fixed my eyes for a moment, walked over to him and whispered, "Someone is following us." ”

Jiang Yuan frowned, sighed, and said, "Come out." ”

I stood side by side with the gnats behind Jiang Yuan, in the darkness in front of me, the blue flames jumped up and down towards us, I like to watch Liaozhai since I was a child, and I still have lingering palpitations about the flame in the opening song, and the scene that appeared in front of me at this moment just perfectly showed the picture in the TV series that year, but the color of the flame was different.

Liang Jun decisively turned off the flashlight, and at this time, I found that the blue flame disappeared in an instant.
