Chapter 30: The Impasse (Revised Version)
In the corridor, the blue phantom flashed, neither me nor the gnator could see what it was, and Jiang Yuan, who was originally conscious at the tense moment, suddenly became demented, and the whole person was like a baby waiting to be fed.
The gnats were stunned, blinked their eyes, and then looked at me seriously: "Boss, this is the legendary drama bone, the acting school of the entertainment industry." ”
I really wasn't in the mood to argue with him, so I stood there and looked at the semi-dormant "octopus" not far away, and said to myself, is this thing really as Jiang Yuan said, it is an ancient creature living in an underground cave? Living fossil? But no matter how I look at it, I think it's more like a sea creature from an alien planet, a land monster that looks like an aquatic product but lives in underground rock formations.
I told the gnats what I thought, but I didn't expect him to believe it, not only did he believe it, but he also patted me on the shoulder seriously, and said: "Mr. Xiao is very knowledgeable, well-versed in ancient and modern things, what you said is very reasonable, in my opinion, it is an alien species that accidentally fell when aliens invaded the earth hundreds of millions of years ago." ”
"." I pushed away his hand on my shoulder, and then squatted in front of Jiang Yuan, who was sitting on the ground like a one-year-old baby, staring blankly in a certain direction in the air.
"Brother, you've had enough, it's time to get down to business."
Jiang Yuan's eyes moved, I thought he was awake, but I didn't expect to hear him say in the next second: "I'm hungry." ”
I was completely speechless, scratching my head, my mind was in a mess, I just sat next to him and smoked, the air quality here is not bad, I stayed for so long, and I didn't feel a lack of oxygen such as chest tightness and shortness of breath.
"What should I do?" The gnats sat across from me, looking at me and looking at Jiang Yuan.
"How do I know?" I pinched out my cigarette and was still on the ground, "You said, when I came, there was a mighty Dora wind, and now, there are only four of us left, one unconscious, the other stupid and cute." ”
The gnats also sighed, and suddenly pulled me aside, and said, "Otherwise, let's go by ourselves, anyway, didn't the little brother say it?" In front of it is the main burial chamber, and there is a thief hole leading to the outside, and we can climb out of it with a few good things, and no one will pursue it anyway, so many people have died here. ”
I looked at him almost with incredible eyes, and my palms began to sweat, and my heart was really shocked by his words.
"How can you kid say such bastard words, what do you tell us to go by ourselves, and if we go, then what will they do?" I pointed at Jiang Yuan and whispered to him, "Could it be that you let me leave him here to die?" ”
The gnats didn't speak, but sat silently on the ground by themselves, their eyes fixed on the "octopus" that was dozing off not far away. And I looked at Jiang Yuan with a heavy heart, and said in my heart, big brother, if you pretend to be too much of a thing.
After being silent for about ten minutes, the grasshopper suddenly screamed, then stood up and patted the soil on his buttocks, pointed to the "octopus" and said to me: "Boss, have you ever played a domestic stand-alone game?" ”
I was stunned and asked him, "What do you mean?" ”
Gnats said: "In domestic games, especially in Xianxia, there are several kinds of professions, some are demons, some are demons, and some are immortals. ”
"And then?" I asked.
"Demons and demons generally suck people's souls or devour people's minds, can you understand?"
I probably understood what he was trying to say, and I let out an "oh" sound, and then continued with his words: "You mean to say that the "octopus" is the demon or the incarnation of the demon in this ancient tomb, and it devoured the souls of Jiang Yuan and Liang Jun, so they are now unconscious and demented in a second? ”
The grasshopper snapped its fingers at me and said, "That's right." ”
I looked at him helplessly, shook my head, and said, "Young man, you think too much. ”
For my denial, the gnats didn't think so, he grabbed a stone like a shot put ball and threw it at the "octopus", I said to myself,, don't you think it's not exciting enough just now?
The stone hit the center of the octopus's eyebrows, and when the stone hit, the octopus immediately came to the spirit.
A blinding white light appeared instantly, almost blinding my eyes.
"What do you kid want to do?" I shouted.
The grasshopper also staggered to me with her eyes covered, pulled down my hand blocking my eyes, and said, "Boss, look, there is a reaction." ”
I followed the direction of his finger, and sure enough, after the "octopus" was woken up by the grasshopper, Liang Jun and Jiang Yuan also seemed to follow the spirit.
I immediately checked Liang Jun's situation, he could already open his eyes, and his mouth muttered as if he was talking in a dream, I listened to it for a long time and didn't hear anything, but was shocked by some individual words in his dream words and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Boss, what did Brother Dajun tell you?"
"Lingque Palace, Weeping Blood Pool, Ten Thousand Dry Valleys, that's all I can understand."
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know."
Actually, I really don't know.
Compared to Liang Jun's situation, Jiang Yuan is much more optimistic, he can already recognize me, but his memory seems to be wrong, he can remember going to Beijing, and he remembers drinking tea in my shop in Panjiayuan, but he doesn't remember giving me a nine-digit check, let alone why he is here.
I swapped things with the grasshopper, and I came to a terrible but factual conclusion.
That is, in this place, we all more or less lost some of our memories, including myself, I passed out before, and I didn't remember this side after waking up, although in the later time, I gradually remembered some fragments, but I never fully recovered.
I asked Liang Jun to eat some biscuits to see his reaction, but unexpectedly, Liang Jun suddenly said to me after eating the biscuits: "Is there anything else you can eat?" ”
The gnats looked at me with wide eyes, and looked at their mouths as if to say: "The two people are in the same condition, they both want to eat, could it be that they are haunted by a starving ghost, this is the tomb of the general of Qin Wanjun, could it be that this Qin Wanjun walked hungry when he died."
I shook my head at him and said, "You are, Qin Wanjun is the commander of an army, one person is above ten thousand people, who dares to let him go to the Yellow Spring hungry." ”
The grasshopper opened its mouth as if to say something to me, and at this moment, the previously quiet "octopus" suddenly went berserk again, and several of its tentacles began to swing in the air in an attempt to find prey.
A sweep of thousands of troops, I immediately felt a foreign object falling on the top of my head, I didn't have time to think about it, shouted to the grasshopper with Jiang Yuan and Liang Jun and ran in the direction of the main tomb, reaching out to the other end of the road where I couldn't see the five fingers, it was a step of heaven and a step of hell for us.
I don't know how long I ran, anyway, my legs were weak before I stopped, holding on to the wall of the corridor and panting, my heart was beating wildly, and the whole person collapsed.
The gnats also stopped not far behind me with a small flashlight in his mouth, and he carried Liang Jun on his back more physically than me, and when he saw me standing there, he immediately brought Liang Jun over to meet us.
"Boss, what are you running?" The grasshopper held on to her knees and gasped for air.
"Don't run and wait to die, don't you see that monster starting to go crazy again."
The gnats spat and shook their hands at me, saying, "I don't see it, don't you think it's weird?" ”
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you think it's been a few hours since this guy appeared, and every time it attacks us, it hits the rocks around us, and it seems dangerous but it doesn't hurt us in the slightest."
I let out an "um" and asked, "So what?" What is the conclusion? ”
Leaning against the wall of the corridor, the grasshopper used the little flashlight to shine a light on the surroundings, saying, "It is trying to scare us away." ”
Seeing that I was pondering, the grasshopper waited for a moment and was just about to speak, when I heard Jiang Yuan say, "Be careful." ”
Almost at the same time, I also heard the sound of armor rubbing, and I also felt a fishy smell coming from behind.
"This monster farted." The gnats covered their noses and screamed.
"Don't talk nonsense, it's the smell of a green-haired scorpion. They're coming, and they're able to catch up here. ”
The gnats grabbed the backpack with both hands and blocked it in front of their chests, and said loudly: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, master, I fought today." ”
