Chapter Seventy-Eight: Escape
Fang Zhong didn't dare to think about it anymore, he hurriedly beckoned a few people to climb up quickly. It seems that this place can't stay for long, you have to get out quickly, otherwise I'm afraid something will happen again!
A shaking pulled Fang Zhong back from his thoughts, and before he could figure out what was going on, Chen Lili above suddenly screamed and fell.
Fang Zhong reacted quickly, he hurriedly freed up a hand and grabbed Chen Lili's wrist. Then the shaking ceased, and then from nowhere came a low cry, which sounded like that of a beast, and like the cry of a man in agony.
Fang Zhong took a lot of effort to pull Chen Lili to prevent her from falling, and urged the two girls above to hurry up, because he obviously felt that something was wrong, those dry corpses that had not fallen were quiet at the moment, and they knelt down in one direction one after another, as if they were worshipping.
After Chen Lili grasped it steadily, Fang Zhong hurriedly climbed up, and he turned his head from time to time to look down. I don't know when, an old zombie with a black body and red eyes appeared in front of the corpse group, and after a closer look, those dried corpses were actually kneeling down to worship the old zombie! Thinking about it, this is the owner of the tomb, and all these corpses are for its burial!
I don't know who this old zombie was when he was alive, and he was able to get so many people to bury it!
While the old zombie hadn't discovered them yet, Fang Zhong hurriedly whispered to a few girls: "Quick, hurry up and go up, don't be discovered!"
"Don't look down, hurry up!" Li Ting just wanted to look back, but Fang Zhong hurriedly stopped her.
After a while, the dried corpses seemed to be done worshipping, and they all looked up at a few people, and at the same time, the old zombie also raised his head and looked at them.
Fang Zhong chuckled in his heart, knowing that something bad was going to happen, this old zombie was not so easy to deal with at first glance! The only thing they can do is to speed up, otherwise they will fall into the hands of the old zombies, and the consequences can be imagined.
The whole pit is about 500 meters long, and when they come down, they don't feel how deep it is, but when they climb up, they feel very difficult, and they wish they could have a pair of wings and fly out!
Fang Zhong, who was worried, habitually glanced back, his face turned blue with fright, and he hurriedly beckoned a few people to speed up and climb up.
It turns out that the old zombie has detached itself from the ground and seems to be about to fly! Fang Zhong had heard rumors about zombies, and knew that some zombies could fly, but after all, it was just hearsay, and now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but believe it!
In Xiangxi, corpse chasers are rife, and if some people who go out to earn a living unfortunately die in a foreign land, their corpses will be transported all the way back to their hometown by some corpse chasers. Regarding the rumors of chasing corpses in Xiangxi, Fang Zhong has heard many people say that he has a deep fear of zombies since he was a child, and when he saw that the zombie actually flew, he could no longer keep calm.
Helplessly, Li Ting and Wu Xinyi were blocking the way above, although Fang Zhong was in a hurry, there was no other way, he could only patiently wait for the two above to climb up little by little.
He tried his best not to look at the zombie, but the more he did it, the more he wanted to look down. Eventually, his fear was overpowered by curiosity, and he glanced back, and this glance was so frightened that he almost fell off the hanging ladder. He could clearly see that the old zombie was already in mid-air, staring at them with those scarlet eyes. It was as if there was something under its body, and it could actually levitate steadily in the air, and it was slowly rising, obviously trying to leave a few of them behind!
"Hurry up, there's no time!" Fang Zhong hurriedly urged a few people to climb up as soon as possible, otherwise once the old zombie caught up, they were afraid that their lives would be lost!
Fortunately, there was no danger, a few people finally climbed up, and at the same time, the old zombie had also come up, as soon as Fang Zhong gained a foothold, the old zombie floated towards him, a pair of arms straight deep, a foot-long nail emitting a chilling light under the dim luminous stone. Fang Zhong was shocked, and without waiting for the old zombie to come up, he hurriedly protected a few people behind him.
Seeing that the old zombie was about to come up, they didn't find the exit at the moment, this was a platform as big as the opposite, once the old zombie went up to the platform, several of them would either die in the hands of the old zombie, or fall down and fall to pieces. Either way, it's a death! Fang Zhong thought in his heart for a moment, and put his heart horizontally, anyway, it would be a death horizontally and vertically, rather than everyone dying together, it would be better to let me die alone!
He took advantage of the fact that the old zombie was still a meter away from the platform, and when it was about to come up, he kicked it suddenly. The kick hit the old zombie in the stomach, and it shook its body and fell back a few meters, while its body began to fall rapidly.
This kick, Fang Zhong had already prepared for the worst, he planned to kick the zombie down, even if it fell with it, it didn't matter, as long as he could exchange his life for the lives of three girls, he thought it was worth it. But he didn't expect that the old zombie just paused for a moment, and then rose up again, and because he had prepared for death in advance, he didn't spare any strength at all, and his body was tilting into the pit at this moment.
Fortunately, the three girls reacted quickly enough, even if they stretched out their hands and pulled him back, otherwise the consequences would be serious. Before the zombie flew, a few people knew what they were going to do without being urged by others. They need to find the mechanism that activates the stone gate before the old zombie arrives, although they don't know if there is a mechanism at all!
Fortunately, there is no endless road, and finally found the mechanism after Wu Xinyi let out an exclamation. After turning the mechanism, the stone door slowly rose, and the sunlight shone in, and the old zombie just stepped on the platform, and was illuminated by the sun, and his body fell down with a shake.
A few people hurriedly ran out, and the stone door slowly closed again. It turned out that it was not visible from the outside, it was connected to the hillside, and there was a lot of moss and thick earth growing on it, so it was necessary to activate the door from the inside.
This was Fang Zhong's experience twenty years ago, and I now finally understand why he felt sick to his stomach when he heard "fish". It's no wonder that Li Ran died at the hands of those so-called "mermaids", and it is reasonable for him to be afraid of fish!
When Fang Zhong talked about the black-scaled sharks in the ancient tomb again, he had already understood everything, the reason why those sharks appeared there was also because of the owner of the tomb, the shark people were tomb guarding beasts. As for the old zombie in the ancient tomb, Fang Zhong later asked someone to inquire, but did not confirm its identity.
Master and I didn't come back to our senses for a long time, and Fang Zhong suddenly asked us a strange question: "Have you heard of the bloody clothes?"
