Chapter 214: Human Sacrifice

We crept forward cautiously, taking every step carefully, for fear of touching the mechanism again.v.om

Luckily, there was no trap on the way, and until we came to the corner, several huge containers appeared.

It was a tank-like container, but several times larger than a tank, with a lid on it, and it was not known what was inside. I counted four of these containers, each on either side of the passage near the wall.

"Isn't this another harmful mechanism?" Wang Yue looked at the scene in front of her in surprise, turned her head and asked me.

I told her, "Don't worry, I'll take a look."

I'm also wondering in my heart, what the hell is this thing for, could there be a monster crawling out of it! To be on the safe side, I drew a palm thunder in the palm of my hand, and then walked towards the water tank step by step.

I trotted a few steps through the four huge water tanks, and when I saw that there was no danger, I turned to Wang Yue and said, "It's okay, come here."

But as soon as I finished speaking, when Wang Yue was about to come over, I suddenly saw the lid on the water tank move, although it moved slightly, but I still saw it.

I hurriedly said to Wang Yue, "Quick, run here."

She looked at me inexplicably for a second, but then the lid on the tank fell suddenly, and then I saw a black object peeking out of it.

Wang Yue was frightened by this scene, she was on the spot, and forgot to run away for a while, I was afraid that she would be in danger if she waited, so I ran a few steps quickly and pulled her over. I didn't have time to see what was in the tank, so I pulled her and ran, but I didn't go far, but I saw four tanks in front of me, the same furnishings, the same size.

"What the hell is that?" Wang Yue asked me in a trembling voice.

I took the rope in my hand and said to her, "I don't know, it must be something harmful, run quickly, don't be stunned!"

Wang Yue nodded, and then the two of us took a step forward and ran forward, and before we ran far, we heard a rush of footsteps behind us. I quickly turned my head and just glanced at it, and I felt terrified, and at this moment there were two human-looking, pitch-black creatures chasing after us. Rather, they are human beings themselves, at least they were. It was a deformed creature with arms longer than legs, fingers of astonishing length, no hair on its head, and at first glance it looked like a half-cremated corpse!

They were corpses, but they weren't ordinary corpses, they weren't zombie droughts, they were human sacrifices.

I haven't seen this thing, but my master has seen it, and he has mentioned it to me. The so-called human sacrifice is to put a dozen people in a large vat, then fill the vaat with water, seal it, and let people soak in the water until the whole body ulcers. They will not die in a few days, but they will feel hungry and thirsty, and at this time, the ** who survive will make them lose their human nature, and they will eat each other's flesh when they are hungry. But in the end, none of them will survive, they will be suffocated to death.

The tank had never been opened since the day it was sealed, and was sealed with runes to imprison the souls of the deceased so that they could not leave the tank. Until many years later, when a living person approaches, the corpse inside will react, and the corpse with strong resentment will break through the confinement and become a corpse demon, and the corpse demon has a strong resentment, and will attack desperately when encountering a living creature until it tears the other party to pieces!

Wang Yue was already dumbfounded when those corpse demons appeared, and she tugged at my clothes like a frightened bird. I told her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

"What the hell is that?" Wang Yue looked at me and asked.

I didn't have time to explain to her that the corpse demons had already come to us, and to make matters worse, the four water tanks behind us were also shaking slightly, and the next moment, three of the water tanks cracked, and five black corpse demons came out of them.

The stinking black corpse water flowed all the way to our feet, accompanied by the residue of the corpse, which looked so disgusting that it made people want to vomit!

I protected Wang Yue behind me, and attacked the two corpse demons in front of me with palm thunder, and I didn't have time to worry about the five corpse demons behind me, I just handed over the corpse rope to Wang Yue, and told her how to use it, so that she could protect herself. Because I can't protect myself now, this passage is only three or four meters wide, but there are seven corpse demons at the same time, isn't it a joke! I can't even be sure to defeat a single corpse demon, let alone seven of them appearing at the same time, and it's in this narrow terrain!

I know very well in my heart that I can't go head-to-head with them, I definitely can't beat them, even if Li Yuan is not dead, there is no chance of winning if we join forces. The corpse demons are almost invulnerable, and the only way to kill them is to dispel their demonic nature and then destroy them to the ground, but that requires a high level of skill, and I can't do it.

I saw that there was no thunder in my palm, so I said to Wang Yue: "Look at the right time, be ready to run away at any time, I can't handle this thing!"

Wang Yue and I were embarrassed to dodge the corpse demons' attacks, and we were only able to escape from their encirclement a few times, but because of Wang Yue, I had to resist desperately to prevent the corpse demons from hurting her. This thing is not only powerful, but also highly poisonous, even if it is scratched, even if it is not a zombie, it will die ugly, and the most important thing is that if you die in the ancient tomb, you can't even save a whole corpse!

As I was dealing with a few corpses, I noticed that these things didn't seem to be oriented by their eyes, their eyes were dead gray, and it was impossible to distinguish things with their noses, which had festered and only two large holes remained.

So I guess that they probably rely on the heat of the human body to identify our position, so they can find our position accurately every time, and we are embarrassed to dodge, and we are almost surrounded by them several times, but fortunately, Wang Yue has a bundle of corpses in his hand, which can temporarily force back the corpse demons.

I dodged the two corpse demons and thought for a moment, thinking that this was not the way to go, and that we had to find a place to hide. Although escaping can temporarily get rid of them, but this is an ancient tomb, not outside, maybe there is a mechanism in front, if you run forward recklessly, if you don't get it right, you will fall into the trap carefully designed by the ancients, and then it will really be called heaven and earth!

I bit my fingers, forced the corpse demon back with blood, and pulled Wang Yue to one of the big black water tanks, and said to Wang Yue: "Listen, we have to hide in the water tank, otherwise we will die here sooner or later!"

Wang Yue's eyes were about to fall out, and she asked me in horror: "Aren't you afraid that there are such monsters inside?"
