Chapter 15: Escape from the hatching host
But why is it so hot in the cold cave? Or is it just that Oniku himself is getting hot?
In this way, the ghost fell asleep for a long time, woke up, fell asleep, woke up...... There is no concept of time at all. But the strange thing is that Onejiu just feels hot, and there are no other signs of discomfort in his body, not even hunger.
In the dark, Onehisa was awakened by a burst of cries, many miserable howls to be exact. Onijiu was scared into a cold sweat, it was really a cold sweat, and Onijiu suddenly found that his body temperature was not only not hot, but had a cold feeling again. Just as Oniku was surprised, the shooting ball that surrounded Oniku began to spin, but the snake egg did not fall off Oniku's abdomen, it turned out that the snake egg had already been fixed to Onijiu's body by the little snake letter in front.
The snake ball stopped after a few laps, and with a rustling sound, a green light gradually appeared in front of Oniku's eyes, and he found that he had come to the edge of the big green ball, and the small snakes around him had evacuated a lot. The green light fluctuated slightly in front of his eyes, and gradually he felt that his blood flow began to increase and his body temperature began to rise rapidly. It turns out that the light waves emitted by this green ball cause a change in the temperature of one's body, and it can maintain this change for a long time. Onehisa began to wonder what he had learned about physics in school, what was the element that could have such an effect?
The screams in the cave brought Oniku back to reality, and he turned his head to find the source of the sound. When he turned his head to the limit, he finally saw a seeping picture, the dozen snake balls were gone, and a dozen green-haired monsters were moving towards the ghost side little by little. The already fast-beating heart was beating faster, and bean-sized drops of sweat seeped out of his forehead, and his pupils were gradually dilating. As they moved, the screams became quieter and quieter.
Luckily, their target is not Akiku, but the glowing green ball in front of Akiku. In front of the eerie light wave of the green ball, a dozen strange things finally stopped. Oni looked at them timidly for a long time, and recognized their shapes, four of which were clearly dogs or wolves, and five of which seemed to be sheep, because there were two horns on their heads, two of which were in the shape of wild boars, and another, which turned out to be in the shape of a human!
The green hairs on their bodies were wriggling chaotically, and Oni Jiu looked carefully at the humanoid closest to him, and his heart chuckled, almost not spitting it out, what kind of green hair was it, it turned out to be a green snake the size of thousands of roundworms! Their heads were already stuck in the flesh of these bodies, and their tails were constantly swinging, and Onehisa believed that no one in the world had ever seen such a horrified and sick image.
In about two minutes, the snake ball that surrounded Akiku returned to its original position, and the snake net was once again dense until Oniku could no longer see the outside. The world was quiet again, and only the sound of Onihisa's heartbeat reminded him of his presence. The frightened picture just now stimulated the nerves of Onijiu to give up, and the desire for life gradually rose and spread, and in the isolated cave, loneliness, dead silence, and a sense of terror made Onijiu yearn to return to the earthly world, to the world full of life and busy all day.
Oni Jiu began to figure out what happened during this time: he was looking for Cai Wei and encountered a mountain beaver with ice cracking, but he was caught by a python when he looked for the entrance, and then he was trapped by a small snake, and then he rolled into the hole, and saw a dozen snake balls, and then he was put into a snake egg, and he was rolled to the glowing green ball twice, and he saw the animals that were bitten by smaller snakes.
The ghost suddenly realized, the cave is cold and seeping bones, the snake uses the thermostatic animal and human body heat to help hatch the snake eggs out of the body, the glowing green ball emits a special energy to the thermostatic animal, and then maintains the necessary heat required for the snake egg to hatch, and then the hatched baby snake uses the animal as a source of nutrition, absorbs the flesh and blood of the animal to complete the final molding.
There is a possibility that there are only fingernails and hoofnails and teeth of animals on the ground, that is, the snake has eaten the whole body except for the above-mentioned parts. It is very likely that the baby snake will bite the body and inject a special toxin into the animal's body, controlling the animal's nerves, causing them to gradually lose their pain and become a walking corpse, allowing them to suck blood. And before finally eating its flesh and bones, the green light can also provide a steady stream of energy to the parasite to keep it immortal, and then the little snakes will take the unnutritious nails and hoofnails out of the hole...... The more Oni Jiu analyzed, the more frightened he became, and the snake egg in his abdomen could suddenly burst open at any time, which was the beginning of his own hell.
Instinct prompts Akiku's brain to spin rapidly, but he can't escape, and Onijiu has to find a way to commit suicide, and he must not go through the long death process as if he was alive or dead. Oni Jiu suddenly thought that there were a few materials to use when looking at feng shui in the satchel he carried, among which there were several packs of sulfur, this thing was precisely the nemesis of the snake, and it could be taken out to fight, maybe there was a possibility of escape or suicide while the chaos was in chaos. There was a thrill in my heart, but in the blink of an eye, my heart sank to the bottom of the ice, my hands and feet were bound, and I had no chance to take out the sulfur.
The main thing for Oneku now is how to create chaos. Thinking of this ghost Jiuyun, he screamed with all his strength, but the effect was not ideal, and the little green snakes around him only trembled a few times. But this tiny tremor gave Onehisa a lot of hope, and it seemed that these snakes were not completely controlled zombie snakes, they had their own sensory system. Onijiu suddenly had a plan, and his heart suddenly brightened, although he was not sure if it would work, after all, a pool of stagnant water had ripples.
The mind has been decided, the ghost is no longer thinking nonsense, but planning for the next step of how to escape from the cave, it seems that it is impossible to get out of the way from the beginning, there is a big guy guarding there, and the distance is so far, it can't run these little snakes at all, so you can only find other exits. At that time, it is up to fate, and you can only take one step at a time.
Onehisa began to close his eyes and recuperate, waiting for the best opportunity. If the snake eggs burst open before the opportunity comes, they will be bitten by these hatching snakes, and they will die after being paralyzed. Onijiu has no concept of time now, and he just feels that it has been a long time, and every moment is torment. But at this time, he didn't dare to relax, for fear that he would fall asleep and miss the opportunity. Eventually, I felt my body move again, then stopped, and then the snakes around me began to decrease, and then the green light came in.
This is the time when the snake around Onijiu is the least, the opportunity comes, Onijiu used all his strength, bit his tongue fiercely, turned his head and sprayed a mouthful of blood to the snake net on the left, the little snakes who smelled blood suddenly went berserk, the shackles on Onijiu's body suddenly loosened, the snake net shook for a while, many snakes broke open and rushed towards the side where Onijiu vomited blood, the snake net on the left suddenly collapsed, the left arm was free, Onijiu quickly pulled his hand, reached into the satchel, grabbed a bag, tore it with his mouth and raised it, a red mist exploded in front of his eyes, It took a long time for the ghost to realize that it was cinnabar that went out. Quickly took out another packet, and raised it out again, a piece of yellow dust suddenly rose, reflecting in the green light into a beautiful goose yellow, and suddenly, the snake ball that had been shackled for a long time collapsed, and the little snakes jumped around like crazy.
The ghost rushed forward without hesitation, still holding some sulfur in the plastic bag in his hand, and scattered it on himself as he ran. Suddenly thinking that there was another person who was being sucked by the newly hatched baby snake, he quickly swept around, and this person was on the edge of the green ball, three meters away from the ghost. The little snakes are now in a panic, and they are afraid of the sulfur on Onehisa's body, so they don't pounce on Onehisa.
Oni Jiu rushed over with an arrow, took out another bag from the satchel, shook it in front of his eyes, saw that it was sulfur, tore it open and threw it at the person, and the little snake the size of a roundworm on her body instantly pulled out its head and fled quickly. Onijiu grabbed her arm and ran behind the green ball as quickly as possible, but he didn't expect that he was already in a semi-stiff state at this time, unable to move at all, and his whole body crashed into the green ball. The green ball was hit by this gravity and rolled down the slope ahead. A cool breeze blew from where the green ball had been, and it turned out to be a small hole underneath it. Oniku leaned down to help the woman, and there was a sound of stones cracking under his feet, and Oniku and the woman fell down at once.
I don't know how long it took for Oniku to open his eyes from the coma, and found that it was dark all around, and he moved for a while, and there was a pain on his body, although he was knocked in many places, but it was all right, and it seemed that the hole that fell down was not steep, otherwise he would not have been so lucky. Thinking that there were two thick red candles and a lighter in the complete set of feng shui utensils in the satchel, he quickly touched the satchel, fortunately it didn't fall off, and fumbled to light the candle, the candlelight quickly illuminated the darkness, and the ghost quickly held the candle to find the person who fell together, fortunately she was not far from the ghost long below.
Oniku carefully moved over, and was about to help her up, when suddenly her head moved, and Akihisa reflexively took a step back, slipped and fell, and the candle in his hand almost fell to the ground. When Oni Jiu got up, he found that the man had already sat up. The ghost was stunned for a long time, and suddenly there was an inexplicable fear in his heart. She froze there in the dark, not moving for a long time, and the ghost suspected that she had become a zombie.
Onijiu regretted saving her a little, but if he hadn't relented to save her at that time, how could he have fallen into the hole below.
"Hey, are you okay?" Oniku let out a trembling voice tentatively at her.
She didn't react at all.
Onehisa was a little overwhelmed because he wasn't quite sure what her current situation was, and even Onehisa wasn't sure if she was human. Still, the piercing clothes on her body gave Onehisa confidence.
"Eldest sister, are you okay, you say it, you are saved"
"Woo......" finally came out of her mouth.
"Can you stand up, you didn't break it?" Oni asked her excitedly.
"Woo......" He still only made one note, but he struggled to stand up!
Onijiu was amazed by her tenacious vitality, and it was a miracle that she was still alive after being sucked by thousands of small snakes, an absolute miracle. Oniku carefully moved towards her with the candle, and she only moved back slightly. It took a long time before she noticed that she was thin, her hair was nearly two feet long and draped over her face, her face was not clear, and there were blood stains everywhere on her body, presumably from snake bites, but the strange thing was that looking at her current condition, there was no sign of poisoning at all.
Oni Jiu timidly reached out to ruffle her hair, but before her hand could reach it, she suddenly shrank back, and at the same time her hands tightly wrapped around her chest, and her whole body trembled slightly. Onijiu understands that she is still in fear in her heart, and must have been imprisoned longer than Onijiu, and her concentration in the face of fear is not necessarily stronger than that of Onijiu, and she must be on the verge of collapse or have gone insane psychologically.
"Can you move around? We're going to find a way to get out."
"Woo......" she nodded timidly.
"Then you follow me, be careful" Seeing that she had the consciousness to respond to herself, Onijiu was much more relieved.
Oni Jiu looked around with a candle, we were now in a natural cave, due to the candlelight limitations, we couldn't see far, and it was pitch black everywhere.
Ghost Jiu groped a little bit to move forward, walked about 20 meters, and found that the candlelight began to sway, and the firelight was slanting back, Oni Jiu felt a burst of secret joy in his heart, it seems that there is a passage in front, otherwise there would not be such a strong wind. Looking back at the "woo man", fortunately she was very close and showed no signs of serious injury.
Just when the ghost turned his head for a long time to continue walking forward, and the afterglow of the corner of his eye swept over the head of "Woo Man", he sighed in his heart, why is there no shadow behind him! The sense of fear soaked in the blood of the ghost for a while, and the ghost stiffened there, and the cold sweat brushed out.
"Giggle, cluck......" There was a seeping laugh behind him.
