"Whew, I'm tired from running..."

After a sprint, the fat man panted against a wall, and his little eyes didn't forget to look in the direction behind us.

Li Baqiu and I were also very uncomfortable running, and our chests were lying together, and after a while, I thought that Li Baqiu said that he understood, so I asked out loud: "By the way, what did you understand when you said it before?" ”

Li Baqiu tried his best to calm his breath, but just as he wanted to speak, his two small eyes immediately widened, and he pointed to the end in front of him and said in horror: "They... They chased after them. ”

I looked at the same time as the fat man of the sea, and sure enough, at the end of the wide road where we had run before, a team of more than a dozen ironclad soldiers ran in our direction, as if patrolling the city and arresting us.

At this time, we really couldn't run, and finally the fat man suggested that everyone find a place to hide first, so we found an old shop nearby and hid in.

In the gap between the door of the shop, I could clearly see that more than a dozen ironclad soldiers were running towards the depths of the ancient city in front of them with sharp blades in their hands, obviously not finding the three of us.

It wasn't until the ironclad soldier ran away for a few minutes and showed no sign of returning that the three of us let out a sigh of relief.

In order to be careful, we decided to stay in this shop for a while, firstly, to understand the current situation, and secondly, to recuperate. During this time, we will naturally ask what does Li Baqiu's previous "understood" mean?

Li Baqiu saw that this problem was always unavoidable, and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, when I was in Stone City before, I vaguely remember that Uncle Liu mentioned it to me, saying that in that exploration of the ancient city at the bottom of the lake, they also encountered a group of ironclad soldiers who hunted and killed, but the appearance of that group of ironclad soldiers was precisely because of their own efforts..."

The fat man interrupted suspiciously: "Why can't I understand, what do you mean because they made it themselves?" ”

"Alas, I'll tell you like this," Li Baqiu was obviously very remorseful and angry, and simply opened up and said: "In fact, those ironclad soldiers on the stone platform, as long as they inhale people's anger, they will be fossilized, and the dozen or so ironclad soldiers just now were transformed from a stone sculpture because of our excessive proximity. ”

"Hiss," I couldn't help but gasp sharply after listening to this, feeling that the dozen or so ironclad soldiers just now were brought back to life because of the anger we released, that is to say, the scene from twenty years ago reappeared in our bodies, but I don't know if they were the cause of my grandfather's crippled and tragic death.

My thoughts flew to the mysterious trip twenty years ago, but the fat man on the side shouted for a while, saying why didn't Li Baqiu say it earlier, and now he has caused such a big trouble.

In this regard, Li Baqiu did not mean to refute, obviously he also knew that he was indeed careless this time.

I saw that Li Baqiu had indeed forgotten that it was not intentional, and I didn't want to say anything more about it, so I interrupted the still persevering sea fat man and said, "Okay, now is not the time to blame, the most important thing is how to find my grandfather and them, as well as the Nine Dragon Wall." ”

Seeing me say this, Li Baqiu pursed his lips slightly and gave me a thumbs up, and then followed my words and said, "Yes, the most important thing for us at the moment is to find the Nine Dragon Wall and solve this eternal mystery." ”

The fat man sneered at this, as if he hadn't forgiven Li Baqiu yet, and tilted his head to the side and stopped looking at the two of us.

When I was thinking about how to alleviate the contradiction between Li Baqiu and Hai Fat, the fat man spoke first, and it seemed that he was still saying to Li Baqiu, which meant not to stink and touch him.

Li Baqiu was completely confused by the sudden words of the fat man, and was stunned on the spot for a while, and only looked at me with innocent little eyes for a while, which seemed to mean that I really didn't touch him.

Faced with such a scene, I opened my mouth wide and never knew what to say. At this time, I heard the fat man say again: "Li Baqiu, if you touch my ass again, my fat man will not finish with you." ”

Li Baqiu, who was insulted and framed by a series of insults, even if he could endure it again, he was a little angry at this time, raised his hand and pointed at the fat man and scolded: "You dead fat man, I, Li Baqiu, have endured you long enough, I want to fight, right?" ”

The fat man's temper at this time was also at a critical point, and when he was about to explode, he reached into the back of his butt and grabbed a big worm and shouted: "This is not your pig's trotters, can it still be..."

When the fat man said this, he suddenly realized something, and looked at the object he was holding in his hand, okay, this is Li Baqiu's hand, it is clearly a black slimy big insect with tongs.

The occurrence of this scene was so frightened that he shook it off without thinking about it, and smashed it heavily on the ground, and suddenly a foul-smelling sour water overflowed from the black beetle's body, and it was ruthlessly stamped by the sea fat man before it could climb a few steps.

The sea fat man stomped very violently, but there was an ominous omen rising in my heart, and I hurriedly stopped the sea fat man's foot movements, and after he lifted his feet and moved away, I was shocked to find that this insect was very similar to the corpse I had encountered in the mountain stream before.

This amazing appearance made me quickly call Li Baqiu on the side to watch, until he turned over the whole body of the insect that was stamped by the fat man of the sea and recognized this thing, it turned out to be a corpse living on land.

As for why Li Baqiu said that it was a corpse on land, in fact, it had a lot to do with the environment.

The corpse is itself an insect that specializes in eating corpses, and it can also be said to be a symbiote of corpses. However, corpses that die in the water or are thrown into the water are the corpses that are derived from them to survive exclusively in the water; And the corpses derived from the corpses that died on the land live on the land.

Although there is no essential difference between the two, there is a slight difference in appearance, which is the real reason why the sea fat man failed to distinguish that this beetle was a corpse in the first place.

Whenever you see a corpse, people will immediately think of a group of tens of thousands of corpses, and we are no exception at this time, we all subconsciously look around us.

However, the same thing is that there are indeed scattered corpses crawling out of the corners around them, and there will be more and more cases.

"Oh my God, where are so many corpses here," the sea fat man subconsciously moved behind the two of us, and said in horror.

Li Baqiu reacted the most quickly, picked up an old table next to him and smashed it forward, forcing the corpses to retreat, and then he kicked the wooden door behind him open, shouting: "Don't go quickly." ”

The fat man and I immediately answered the call and ran towards the door of the shop that had been kicked open, and when the three of us appeared on the empty street, we didn't know which direction to run in for a while. In the end, I gritted my teeth and took the lead in running in the direction of the ironclad soldiers, which was the palace where the king of the ancient Dian Kingdom rested.
