Chapter 33 The Water Corpse Cockroach and the Dry Corpse Cockroach

This time I saw clearly, there was a mezzanine in the backpack, but the mezzanine was very secret at the bottom of the backpack, I thought there was foam underneath, no wonder I never found it.

A beam of orange light shone through the darkness over the altar.

The second uncle muttered to himself: "I see, I'll just say why I haven't reacted for so long." ”

I saw that there was still a bronze coffin hanging above the altar that had not fallen, and that direction was the direction we had just come out.

Click, click, the chain seems to be unable to bear the weight of the coffin, and it will break at any time.

The second uncle threw the flashlight in his hand to me, took out another handful from his bag, looked at Chuan and asked, "Brother Chuan, do you want it?" ”

Chuan nodded.

The second uncle took out a flashlight again and looked at the darkness in front of him: "If the coffin also falls, then none of us can escape, it is better to retreat to the river first, maybe there is still a glimmer of life." ”

I supported my second uncle in front, and Chuan followed behind with a long sword.

I turned on the flashlight and shook it around, and as my second uncle said, every week is a square, and the bluestone bricks extend to the limit of the flashlight's light, and there is no end in sight.

There was no sound coming from behind, and we walked for about 10 minutes before the moat came into view.

On the other side of the river is a whole smooth and huge mountain rock, straight to the top of the head, and there is no end to the flashlight, and the stone wall is painted with scenes of some duels between people and cattle and dogs, and some scenes of duels between cows and dogs.

I flashed a picture of a duel between a man and an ox, and pushed the second uncle who was pushing and supporting: "What does the second uncle mean?" ”

The second uncle looked at the painting and explained: "It is said that the ancient Yelang country from the emperor to the common people are very fond of bullfighting and dog fighting, they think that the cow is industrious, can plough the land, and only eat grass to survive, and can eat its meat after death, the dog is loyal to the family, and can hunt, they think that the cow and dog must be a gift from the gods, they believe in the cow and dog to the extent that it is almost crazy, there are many villages in the country that are proud of the word cow and dog, and many people change their surnames to cow and dog."

The emperor decreed that August 9 was set as the dog fighting festival, and September 9 was set as the bullfighting festival, and the people of each county could bring their own cattle and dogs to participate in the competition, and all the cattle and dogs that won the leader would be rewarded by the emperor. ”

I opened my mouth wide and thought to myself, bullfighting in the West is weak, and there were bullfighting competitions in our country 2,000 years ago.

Chuan kept staring at the river.

The second uncle looked at him, "Do you want to go down to investigate?" ”

It was clear that my second uncle and I were both injured, and he was the only one who could move freely.

"Hmm" Chuan nodded and took off his sweatshirt, revealing a snow-white body with no fat on it or imaginary muscles, which didn't look like a man's body, but a bit like a woman's body.

Seeing that Chuan was about to dive, I hurriedly said: "There is a corpse cockroach under the second uncle, a man as big as a fist." ”

"It's called the water corpse cockroach, and it's no longer there."

"Puff" splashed some water droplets and slapped ashore, leaving a pair of sneakers and shirts on the shore and the river had already been launched.

"How could it be gone, when I chased me, it was densely packed with tens of thousands."

The second uncle let go of me and sat cross-legged on the riverbank: "Corpse cockroaches are divided into two kinds, one is called water corpse roaches and the other is called dry corpse roaches, water corpse cockroaches can only live in water, they will die soon after they come ashore, the toxicity is relatively low, they like to hunt prey in groups, they like to eat carrion the most, as long as they eat well, they will grow big, and they are the natural enemies of zongzi." ”

"Dry corpse cockroach is generally more common in Miao Jiang, Miao people will use their own blood to raise a corpse cockroach king since childhood, and after he dies and is buried, the corpse cockroach king will be regarded as the guardian beast of the tomb, as long as the living creatures enter the tomb, it will be eaten by countless corpse roaches, the corpse cockroach can lay eggs compared with cockroaches, it can produce hundreds of thousands of them in a year, and the toxicity is very violent, if a strong man is bitten, it will last up to 5 minutes and die of corpse poison."

"The corpse cockroaches in this river have been poisoned by Chuan," the second uncle pointed to some black spots floating on the river.

The flashlight shot at the water, and the sparkling river reflected some light, and sure enough, there were some dead corpse cockroaches floating on the water.

Poisoned to death? Isn't that corpse cockroach poison? I thought to myself.

Look up, "Huh" what is that?

"Don't look," the second uncle yelled anxiously, stood up and pushed me aside.

A headless corpse floated and sank on the surface of the water, drifting into the distance.

"Second uncle, that's Biao Biao" couldn't shout in a hoarse voice, and his face was full of tears.

The second uncle said with a painful face: "Xiao Bi, don't look at it." ”
