Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Friend Who Suddenly Appeared (Middle) Revised Edition
Sure enough, it was another oversized "land octopus".
A tentacle swept everything, the gravel splashed, Liang Jun was thrown heavily on me, I instinctively reached out to catch him and rolled on the ground a few times, when I got up, I felt my throat sweet, and I felt a faint fishy smell under it.
I coughed a few times, spat a few times, and felt better.
The man didn't know where to find a miner's lamp, and jumped to me like a monkey roller coaster with a few tentacles of the "octopus", "How is he?" ”
I probed Liang Jun's snort, but fortunately, he didn't die.
"He's fine, he should just faint." I said.
The man looked around with a miner's lamp, and it was then that I noticed that there was a very strange tattoo on his arm, and at first glance, there was a sense of déjà vu.
The grasshopper was hiding with the big octopus on his back and playing hide and seek with the big octopus, he moved flexibly, and took a few steps to our side while the big octopus had not yet adapted to the outside environment.
"Boss, how is Brother Dajun?"
"It shouldn't be fine, what about Jiang Yuan? How is he? ”
After Jiang Yuan heard my words, he looked around with very weak half-open eyes and said, "This is Zuo Yongdao, how did we come here?"
As soon as I wanted to speak, the man took the lead, only to see him holding a miner's lamp in one hand, his head slightly sideways to our side, and said, "Qin Wanjun's way of using troops is good at surviving Jedi."
"So what?" I asked him.
The man snorted, put down the lamp, turned to face us, and said, "If you want to turn the tide of a dead game, the only way to turn things around is to cut off the way and be reborn from the dead." ”
I somewhat understood what he meant, and said to him: "This little brother, I can understand what you mean, but you also have to understand one thing, we are now in an ancient tomb, facing many traps in the tomb and many unknown monsters, such as the 'octopus' behind you who is going crazy, put it to death and come back to life, can't it be that you let us all go and find death by ourselves?" ”
The grasshopper interrupted me and said, "Boss, then we really have to go over and fight him." ”
The man said: "Of course not, the so-called life and death calamity is generally used by warlocks when they break a person's life, but in the architectural structure of the entrance tomb, life and death calamity is also one of the defense systems. ”
I answered, "There will be death in the door of life? ”
The man nodded in agreement.
We talk here and take a break, but we ignore another thing, and that is that although this "big octopus" is blind, it has quite good ears.
The bathtub-sized eyes emitted several blinding white lights, which looked a bit like the appearance of an alien spaceship preparing to land, too animated.
Wherever the white pillar of light hits, the poplar-thick tentacles behind it will follow, powerful enough to clap a large stone a meter square into powder.
Like circus monkeys, we walked through the dangerous corridors with our belongings, and in the chaos, we were scattered again.
As soon as the front foot left the ground, the next second, a tentacle swept over the place behind him that he had just stepped on, and everything instantly turned into ruins.
I'm just sorry for the rare treasures on this rock wall, those murals hidden under special materials must have recorded a lot of historical information that we don't know.
"Xiao Fang, be careful behind you."
Jiang Yuan shouted these words with all his strength, and then I saw a tentacle appear behind him and the grasshopper.
"Left." I shouted and held out my right hand, which was the code of the agreement between me and the grasshopper, and it was difficult for others to understand. The gnatch comprehended, helped Jiang Yuan to quickly climb on the ground, and threw a glow stick in his hand in the opposite direction.
The next second, they heard the rock wall behind them crack, and the "big octopus" misjudged.
After a loud bang, countless pieces of rubble fell, almost burying them both alive.
The grasshopper stood up and wanted to curse, but before he could open his mouth, he was immediately frightened back, because in front of him, the "big octopus" was getting closer.
"Boss, boss, what should I do?"
I couldn't walk fast with Liang Jun on my back, so I could only stand in the distance and shout to him: "Calm down, this thing is so big and slow, as long as you dodge its tentacles, you will be fine." ”
The grasshopper nodded in agreement, and at the same time picked up Jiang Yuan and began to grope in the dark, because there was not enough light over there, and for the "big octopus" without vision, this situation was favorable.
The "big octopus" seems to be very "like" the gnats and Jiang Yuan, since just now it has been chasing these two people, several tentacles bombarded in turn, although the gnats have escaped again and again with the help of geographical advantages, but can never come to meet us, this "big octopus" is well versed in the way of soldiers, knows how to break the whole into zero, one by one.
"Boss. You're trying to figure it out. "The gnats are about to cry.
"I know, I'm thinking." I'm about to cry too.
At this time, Jiang Yuan suddenly threw a stone at me, and the fist-sized stone flew almost close to my ear, and I was startled by him and scolded casually.
The "big octopus" was still carrying out a mine-sweeping attack on them, and Jiang Yuan gestured at me, which is a kind of industry language invented by the Tufuzi in private, because we encounter a lot of times when we can't make a sound underground, and often when we can't express the meaning in words, we can use gestures to say what we want to say.
What he meant was to ask me to face the rock wall behind me, then jump on the stone platform, find the location of the snake's head on the rock wall, and then smash the protective layer on the surface, there should be a bow and crossbow mechanism to control the Yongdao, as long as we stand in position, we can use the defense system of this Yongdao to solve this "octopus".
I exclaimed, "Great idea." ”
Grab the trekking rope and special climbing gloves and climbing shoes in the backpack, and be fully armed in less than a minute, the rock walls on both sides are very rough, it is not difficult to climb up, the difficult thing is, where is the head of the snake?
According to the direction determined by the stone that Jiang Yuan had just thrown, I used a hammer to haggard a protective layer on the surface, which was a substance similar to lime, and began to fall off after a few hard knocks.
The source of the mineral light in my hand began to weaken, and I found that there was a large jade mural hidden on the rock wall here, and the snake lines were clearly recognizable.
After about seven or eight minutes, I found the head of the snake, and sure enough, as Jiang Yuan expected, there was a very inconspicuous abnormality in the position below the head of the snake, and there was a piece of snake carved upside down.
I thought to myself, could this be the mechanism of the bow and crossbow array, turned around and shouted at the grasshopper to prepare, and then held the hammer and prepared to smash it, but at this moment, I felt someone behind me jump high and kick the hammer in my hand at the same time, and my wrist hurt sharply, as if it was about to break.
I screamed and fell from above, and a hand lifted me up, and I turned around and tried to curse, only to find that it was him.
"Where have you been, I can't find you anywhere, people are fine."
The man didn't speak, but looked back at the "big octopus" who continued to go crazy, and then said to me, "Don't dwell on it, go all the way to the main burial chamber, there is a robbery hole above the main burial chamber, good luck." ”
After saying that, I turned around to leave, I immediately stepped forward and grabbed him, and said, "Who are you, why are you so familiar with this place, although we meet in Pingshui, but we are injured and sick, and we are really not sure that we can get out alive, will you stay and help us succeed?" ”
Actually, I said this on purpose, because I was curious about this person who appeared out of thin air, and wanted to get something out of his mouth about this tomb.
The man just replied lightly and said, "You don't have a problem, you don't need my help here, and besides, you don't have to go into the Shang Zhou tomb above in the future." ”
I pulled out some medicine from my backpack and said to him, "Since you don't want to help us, then you can take this thing with you, the wound on your body is still bleeding, and there is a hemostatic medicine here." ”
The man took it, looked at it, and said, "I owe you another favor, and I will pay it back later." ”
After saying that, I immediately turned around and left, this time I didn't even have a chance to stop it.
