Chapter 8: Zombies

Before Nie Yu's fear could really spread, there was a burning pain in his shoulder, the pain of the force claw grabbing deep into the flesh.

The claw was swift and powerful, and it was about to break into the bones on Nie Yu's shoulder in an instant.

Maybe it was the instinct to survive, or it was a knee-jerk reaction, Nie Yu snorted coldly in pain, and then bent forward with all his strength to break free from the restraints of the force claw, but the force claw was so strong and powerful, he didn't pull much distance.

At this moment, a rapid gunshot sounded in Nie Yu's ears, and the gunfire resounded throughout the entire tomb, almost deafening Nie Yu's ears.

No one could have imagined that it was the sound of a pistol, and no one could have imagined that countless projectiles poured out in two seconds and hit the monster's cranial cavity, but the monster still didn't let go, still clutching Nie Yu's shoulder.

Duanmu Longchi saw that there was no effect, and there was no time to change the bullet at all, he quickly took out the extremely sharp saber from his thigh, and stabbed it directly into the monster's neck, and then, he rushed forward, and directly hugged the monster's head with his left arm, and the saber turned the erosive neck, and after that, the battle-hardened soldier planted his head to the ground.

The claw on Nie Yu's shoulder finally stopped moving, and with his further exertion, a piece of flesh was torn off raw, but he finally got rid of the claw's shackles.

Because everything happened so fast, it wasn't until this moment that the other three people just reacted, but the three flashlights didn't shine on Nie Yu or Duanmu Longchi, but on the headless monster in unison.

It stood stiff for a moment, then leaned slowly, and finally fell to the ground with a thud, red and green liquid gurgling out of the severed neck, staining a large area of the ground.

Seeing such a scene, Ying Hui and Zhang Ning didn't control it for a while, and directly began to vomit. At this time, although Gu Qi was also nauseated, he had seen the world after all, and he forcibly endured the sour water in his throat and looked at the Duanmu Dragon Pond who had already stood up.

He was still carrying the monster's head, which had been smashed into a sieve by bullets, and kept bubbling out with dark green liquid.

At this time, Gu Qi only felt that his scalp was numb, but it was not just because of that monster, but more because of the bravery from Duanmu Longchi, under the illumination of the flashlight, that person's face was as usual, so where is it still a person? It was a demon, even more terrifying than that monster.

After another long time, Yinghui, who was relieved, stood up, treated Nie Yu's wound, and then bandaged it. It's just that to everyone's shock, the green liquid in Nie Yu's wound can't be cleaned up no matter how it is cleaned, and in the end it has to be disinfected with a strong antibiotic spray, the pain is incomprehensible to ordinary people, Nie Yu bit his clothes hard to really survive.

At this time, Duanmu Longchi threw the monster's head on the ground, but his gaze never left the dark green liquid flowing on the ground, and after hesitating for a long time, he turned his head to Gu Qi and said, "What do you think is going on?" ”

Gu Qi shook his head, it seemed that he had never seen such a scene, nor had he ever seen such a way of deceiving a corpse, "If this is really Zhang Jiong, then he should have been dead for at least two weeks, however, I have never heard of such a short period of time to be able to transform a corpse!" Does it have anything to do with this ancient tomb? ”

"That's not right!"

Nie Yu covered his wound, which seemed to reduce some pain, and he retorted while inhaling the cold air: "I feel that this is not a corpse transformation at all, although I don't know much about the strange things in those ancient tombs, but I believe that this time it must not be explained by a corpse transformation." ”

Maybe he was too excited, and there was a sharp pain in his wound, he paused slightly, and continued: "I guess this should be some kind of virus, you look at those green liquids, it is obviously the result of a bacterial or virus invasion, but I feel that the virus is more likely, have you seen a zombie blockbuster?" I guess it's similar to those infected zombies. ”

"Zombies?"

Ancient Seven smiled disdainfully, "I'm talking kid! What is in the movie can still be believed? Then I prefer to believe in the myths and stories left by my ancestors. Also, you're right, you don't know anything about the things in the ancient tomb, you just arranged for Ye Zuguang to come to your father, so ......"

Before Gu Qi could finish speaking, Duanmu Longchi interrupted him, "No! I think what he said makes sense, when we first entered the tomb and saw Amin's coffin, I smelled a strange smell, it was very small, at first I thought it was my own delusion, but when I came into contact with this corpse, I finally smelled the same smell, that is, the smell of the body infected with the virus. ”

"So you think that this Zhang Jiong was infected with some kind of zombie because he was scratched or killed by another thing?"

Gu Qi asked suspiciously, pointing to the wound on the corpse's chest, although he was puzzled, but it was obvious that there was disdain and opposition in his tone.

Yes, he is an old tomb robber who has experienced countless inverted battles, and his experience is indispensable, if there is anyone in the country who can be better than him in this regard, it is only his dead father, otherwise, Ye Zuguang would not have worked hard to invite him.

Before the others could speak, Zhang Ning, who was also squatting on the ground, suddenly moved two steps back, then stretched out his hand and pointed at Nie Yu and said, "Then, then he was just scratched by that monster, according to what you said, then he, will he also ......?"

Although this sentence is only half said, everyone understands what he means, that is, if it is really some kind of virus infection, then maybe Nie Yu has been infected at this time, and it will not be long before he will also become Zhang Jiong's appearance.

Nie Yu smiled slightly, "Of course, of course it is possible, this may be the reason why the green liquid in my wound just now could not be cleaned up, it may be that this virus is constantly multiplying and splitting." ”

"That ......"

When Zhang Ning's face changed greatly when he heard this, he took two steps back and looked at Nie Yu's eyes and saw the corpse.

"So, if I wait for something to happen, then, then just kill me!"

Nie Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, although his face pretended to be relaxed, but everyone knew that when faced with death, who would really be calm?

For a moment, the scene became awkward.

In the end, it was Gu Qi who broke the silence, he dusted off his body, stood up with a long sigh, and said a little helplessly: "Boy, it's too early to say this, whether we can go out now is one thing!" ”

This sentence brought everyone back to the status quo, now that the tomb was completely sealed, to put it simply, they were trapped here, and if they couldn't find a way out, all that awaited them was death.

Under the leadership of the Ancient Seven, everyone began to grope around the wall, especially the location of the original stone gate, hoping to find some of the mechanisms left by the ancients.

In some aspects, the ancients seemed to be better at it than the people of today, such as poetry and music, and the mechanism of this tomb. Ancient Seven Theory, in his experience, he found a lot of mechanisms left by the ancients, and even people can't explain it now, such as the Xuanyin device that can be compared to the seven-tone cup, which may be the earliest voice-activated device of human beings. There is also the Sun Gate, which is designed according to the rotation of the earth, which is so exquisite, that the Sun Gate can only be opened once a year, and it can only be opened for one hour at a time, and it is said that it was specially designed for living burial in ancient times.

However, after listening to Gu Qi's lecture on countless ways to open the tomb, everyone tried countless methods accordingly, but in the end, they did not find the exit of this tomb.

What worries these five people the most is that there are nearly a hundred corpses stored in the coffin wall behind them, and no one can keep them, when they will suddenly "resurrect" at a certain moment like Zhang Jiong's corpse.

In the words of Gu Qi, those corpses that don't know the year but are definitely very old are even more terrifying than a little Zhang Jiong, and they may have some unknowable curse attached to them.

This reminded several other people of mummies, as well as the dried corpses in the movie that were full of mountains with sharp knives and axes.

When everyone announced that the temptation was fruitless, Duanmu Longchi even used a metal storm to shoot wildly towards the wall for a while, how could these stone walls be too thick and too hard, only a small pit mark was made, according to such efficiency, not to mention that the ammunition carried is not enough, even if it is enough, then I don't know how long it will be dug up.

Just as everyone looked at each other with sad faces, Gu Qi had already taken out the compass at some point, and at this moment, his face actually showed a trace of surprise and joy.

Seeing this situation, everyone gathered around, but they didn't understand what the Ancient Seven had discovered.

"Seventh Master! Y-What are you laughing at? ”

Zhang Ning poked his head and asked, although he was also by Gu Qi's side, he had always kept a small distance from Nie Yu, as if he was afraid that the other party would change anytime and anywhere.

Gu Qi dragged the compass with one hand, pointed to the most central pointer with his right hand and said, "Look! See? ”

Everyone's eyes were focused on the pointer, but they all shook their heads, it was a small piece of iron that swayed slightly, nothing special at all, and no different from an ordinary compass.

However, just when Gu Qi wanted to reveal the answer, Duanmu Longchi suddenly said softly: "It's moving!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little discouraged, who couldn't see that he was moving? As long as the hand is unsteady, even the compass will swing slightly, let alone such an old compass.

However, the next moment, Gu Qi actually nodded, looked at Duanmu Longchi with a smile, and seemed to admire it very much, "Sure enough, he was born in the military, and the slightest change can be captured." ”

I don't know if this sentence is also boasting about himself, but after a while, he pointed to the compass again and said: "As he said, this pointer is moving, it is not just shaking, it is still turning, you look carefully!" ”

After his reminder, the other three finally saw the extremely subtle turn, although it was not obvious, but as long as you looked carefully for one to two minutes, you would definitely observe this result.

At this time, Zhang Ning suddenly asked, "So, what does this mean?" Could this help us get out? ”

Nie Yu seemed to understand something all of a sudden, "This shows that the tomb we are in is rotating, right?" ”

Ancient Seven smiled admiringly, "That's right! That's what it means. I really didn't expect that I would really see such an exquisite tomb design in my life, even if I die here today, it will be worth it? ”

Yinghui, who had never spoken, asked thoughtfully, "Then what should we do now?" ”

This is probably a question that everyone wants to know, but Gu Qi pondered for a long time, but finally gave one word, "Wait!" ”
