Chapter 17 The Comer Is Not Good
The face that suddenly appeared was face to face with me, and he was staring at me with a pair of green eyes, and I knew that the person who came was not good.
I scolded you damn it, and my body instinctively rolled backwards, and after a roll, it was a certain distance away from the strange face, and I shone a flashlight at it, only to find that the thing was directly on the wall, and it hung upside down and looked at me.
I don't know when this thing appeared, maybe I started following us when I was with the pit, but I was afraid of the two of us, so I didn't act rashly. Or maybe it came after we separated, and I didn't notice it tracking it anyway. Maybe it was because I stopped suddenly, and I accidentally realized that just by virtue of the distance between it and me, it could bite me in the neck.
It's so dangerous, I don't know whether to rejoice or scold the street now. Anyway, I picked up a life for the time being, and the big monster face has no intention of retreating.
Seeing that I had found it, the big monster face simply jumped off the wall to the ground and grinned at me. I only had a dagger in my hand, and the old gun was just leaning against the wall, and the incident happened suddenly, and I didn't have time to take it when I dodged.
The monster's face was not big, like a big monkey, lean, like a dried corpse. Such creatures make me feel so disgusting, and they are not good birds at first glance. The biggest difference with the monkey is that the creature in front of me actually has six claws, along with two hind paws and four front paws, the four front paws are obviously longer than the hind paws, and it is about half a long time to touch. The monster's face is covered with fluff, and the whole is gray, which may naturally become a protective color in this environment. A pair of green eyes, staring at me motionlessly.
In the face of such a monster that I thought should not exist on the earth, I did not dare to relax at all, shining a flashlight in one hand and holding a dagger in the other. I guess he found the dagger in my hand, and the strange face did not act rashly, and began to crouch in place, waving his four front paws at me, and his mouth kept making a "clucking" sound, which was like a child's laughter, coming from such a beast, and making my hairs stand on end.
I chose not to move the enemy, I did not move, so I stalemate for more than a minute, and the big monster face began to walk back and forth around me on the ground looking for an opportunity to attack, I always shined a flashlight on it, and wherever it went, my flashlight followed. Seeing that I was very well guarded, I screamed twice in the face of the monster, turned around and climbed to the wall again, using six legs at the same time, the coordination was terrifying, as if walking on flat ground.
I thought it was going to give up when it climbed up the wall, but as soon as it climbed the wall, it pounced on me from a high place, and in an instant its claws reached out in front of my eyes, and I couldn't guard against it, so I had to block the dagger in front of me. The blow to the monster's face was blocked by me and fell to the ground again, but my arm was deeply scratched by its claws, and the sleeves of my coat were torn into several pieces, and blood instantly flowed all over my arm, dripping down my wrist and falling to the ground.
Stimulated by the blood, the big monster's face screamed even more happily, "clucking", which is probably a cheer after succeeding. The blood on my arm is still flowing, there is already a patch on the ground, and I don't have time to stop the bleeding, if I continue like this, even if I don't get bitten to death by the big monster's face, I will die of excessive blood loss.
I can't sit still, I must find a way to kill it, now the pit is separated from me, Lao Zhao and they don't know where to go, the only thing I can count on is the old gun poked against the wall, if I can get the gun, at such a close distance, I believe that even if it can't be killed, it will have to be disabled.
The great sages taught us that the best defense is offense. I waved my dagger tentatively, and the big-faced monster's eyes rolled with my hand, still staring at me. I took a small step forward and tried, the big-faced monster "gurgle", waving four paws, I was dizzy, how could this thing have so many claws, this is not scientific.
I saw an opportunity and slashed at the big-faced monster, only to see it jerk back, but it was too late, I only felt that the dagger had been sharpened with a hard object, and the nail of one of the big-faced monster's claws was still cut off in half. The big-faced monster that had lost half of its nails screamed and immediately pounced on me, but fortunately I was prepared for it, so it didn't succeed.
Unable to retaliate, the beast repeated its old tricks, jumped on the wall and attacked me from a high place again. How can I fall for your trick again this time, grandpa, I am not a vegetarian. I slammed the dagger upward, and the big face was in the middle of the big fluffy face, and the blood immediately stained most of his face, and the whole face was almost purple with dark red blood.
The big-faced monster that failed again and was stabbed was even more severe, and the whole body lay on the ground, moving quickly against the ground, circling faster and faster around me, and suddenly pounced from behind me, and there were blind spots in human defense behind me, I couldn't dodge, and I couldn't attack, so I was clawed. I could clearly feel the blood in my back, maybe because I was too nervous, but there was no pain.
I don't know if I'm seriously injured now, I just know that I might not be able to resist two claws now, and I will be caught twice. I'm afraid I don't even have the strength to resist.
The big-faced monster was still lying on the ground, looking at me with a shy face, sticking out its long red tongue and licking the blood from its face.
I can't afford to delay, I have to get my gun, or I'm going to die. But how can I get past this beast? That's a problem. If only the pit was there now, the two of us would work together to deal with this brute, not one, even a few more. But now I'm alone, where is there any cooperation to fight. My dear pit brother, where are you! I now regret that I have parted ways with the pit, and the two of us are together, and maybe the monsters will not dare to attack us rashly because they are afraid of our numbers. Maybe the pit is in the same trouble as me now, maybe two or more monsters, and the others are attacking the pit. If he encounters the same thing as me, I don't know if he will be so embarrassed, and if he sees me so embarrassed, he will definitely laugh at me.
I must not let the pit look down on me, I must resist it. Now the big-faced monster is staring at me like it's looking at the rice in a bowl, and if it can't see me, how good it would go. Thinking of this, I glanced at the guy in my hand, and I suddenly had an idea of adventure in my heart. I can't be invisible, so I can only make up my mind from the monster's eyes, and of course I can't go up and lightly blindfold it and let it guess who I am.
The two of us looked at each other like this, and I suddenly turned off the flashlight, quickly turned the optical switch of the flashlight to the strongest, and turned the flashlight on again. The eyes of the big-faced monster that had just fallen into the darkness, just when they were about to start adapting to the darkness, suddenly encountered the direct irradiation of a strong flashlight, such a close distance, such a short time, this was enough to cause the instantaneous blindness of the big-faced monster.
Right now, I flew up and kicked it on the head, kicking it out several meters away, and I used all my strength. Get rid of the big-faced monster, I ran to the wall in two steps, picked up the old gun, and turned around, the goods just rushed behind me, there was no time to hesitate, I quickly pulled the trigger, "tom", but unfortunately hesitated I didn't have time to aim carefully or hit a little off, although the monster that was hit was shocked far away, but only slightly injured. Enraged, the big-faced monster howled and crawled towards me quickly, and I thought it was about to take the road, so I quickly blocked the front of my legs with the butt of my gun, but more than a meter away from me, it jumped high and came straight to the door in front of me.
I was shocked, it's not good, I'm going to talk nonsense. Seeing that it was in front of him, the big-faced monster that jumped high fell out with a thud. I saw that the beast had no more qi left, and when I looked closely, I saw that the head of the big-faced monster had been cut through by a sharp arrow.
Is it a mechanism? I looked back suspiciously with a flashlight, only to see Lao Zhao and Song Jin walking out of the darkness, and Song Jin was holding the recurve bow that he had assembled before going down the tomb.
"The minister's escort is late, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." Song Jin walked up to him and joked with me.
"It's not too late, it's just the right time." I replied with a smile.
"Brother Ling, where have you been, why can't you see Brother Niu?" Lao Zhao asked me.
"Alas, we couldn't see the two of you as we walked and turned around, and we thought it was ......"
"What do you think is wrong?"
"I thought I had met a ghost hitting the wall." Of course, I can't say that I thought Lao Zhao and they dumped us.
"Oh, what about Brother Niu?"
"He went in the opposite direction, and we thought we had run into a ghost and hit the wall, so we planned to go separately and try it."
"I see. What about this injury? Lao Zhao asked, pointing to my arm.
I pointed to the gasping monster on the ground, "That's it." ”
Lao Zhao You stepped forward to take a look and said, "Water monkeys, they will actually appear in such a place." Maybe it's because the entrance to the tomb itself is underwater, so it comes in by accident. ”
When I heard him say this, I took a closer look at the so-called water monkey, which I had only seen in stories before, but today I saw the real thing.
"Fortunately, you found it in time, otherwise he would have bitten you in the throat and stretched out his claws to pull out your heart and lungs, and you would have been completely hopeless." Lao Zhao said.
"And how can this thing have four hands?" I asked.
"This water monkey originally lived under the water, and the people who were specially pulled in the water drowned. These four hands can just hold four people, so that people can't move, and there is no way to escape. ”
I can't imagine that there are such vicious creatures in the world, and it is innocent to be killed by Song Jin's arrow.
Lao Zhao instructed Song Jin to bandage me first to stop the bleeding and then make the next step, at this time, there were two gunshots in the distance, and the three of us looked at each other, it must have been something wrong with the pit.
