Chapter 239: Poisonous Centipede
I woke up suddenly, and my intuition told me that something seemed to have crawled over me.
But when I looked up, everyone else was sitting there, some talking about something, some wiping weapons, some eating, all looking very energetic, but they didn't seem to notice anything.
At this moment, an old Pan man stood up, walked to a stone a few meters away, unbuttoned his pants to pee, I just had a trace of ominous thought in my heart, and before I could speak, the guy suddenly let out a scream, and threw himself on the ground, and his body writhed desperately.
I was stunned and stood up, and the others reacted faster than me, and in an instant two people rushed over.
But the two didn't step forward, and a man with a black face said in a deep voice: "Chengzi, what is it?" ”
But the man named Cheng Zi was speechless, lying on the ground and howling, as if in great pain, struggling and screaming: "Help, save me"
The two were about to step forward then, but a flashlight suddenly shone over, and it was Zhang Ye, who grabbed the two people and shouted in a low voice: "Don't go over!" Look behind him! ”
I looked forward by the light of the flashlight, hazy, and felt that something seemed to be squirming behind Cheng Zi, densely packed, as if there was more than one.
At this time, everyone had already gathered around, but this person was Lao Pan's buddy, and several people from the land, sea and air over there did not move, but stood up and picked up their weapons, and vigilantly patrolled around.
Zhang Ye immediately rushed forward, trying to grab the man and drag him back, but at this moment, the man's body suddenly rubbed against the ground and slid backwards as if he was being pulled backwards by something. He wailed and dug the ground with his hands, trying to break free of the force. But the drag force was so great that with his hoarse howl, his whole body gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Two cold fireworks were thrown out in an instant, drawing two white arcs, falling to the ground, with the strong light, the mysterious creature that had been hiding in the dark finally appeared in its original form, it turned out to be a dense piece of huge centipedes as thick as a baby's arm!
These centipedes are jet-black and wriggling there, but their heads are bright red and bloody, and they are obviously highly venomous, or in some cases, they are bloodthirsty centipedes at all.
I gasped, centipedes are highly poisonous things, such a big one, just one is enough to kill people, not to mention that it seems that there must be at least hundreds.
In the bright light, I also saw the person who was being dragged away, crawling with centipedes, the exposed skin had been torn and the flesh was blurred, and dozens of centipedes were biting his clothes and pulling backwards.
This scene is so familiar, I instantly remembered that when I was in the Black Water Demon Cave, those swamp salamanders almost dragged Da Kui away at the beginning, but at this time, these giant centipedes were obviously more terrifying.
Everyone stopped, those centipedes were too shocking, this was clearly the posture of who passed and who died, I was anxious, but I suddenly understood something, the bones in the sand dunes in front of me, were they killed by these centipedes?
At this time, the man was dying, and the sound of calling was also like nothing, to be honest, I didn't know the guys brought by the old Pan Xin, the old Pan introduced us, but I didn't remember much, but the current scene, even if I was not familiar, it was also together, I saw that the scalp was numb, and at this moment a person suddenly picked up the gun, only to hear a burst of gunshots suddenly rang out, and the person had already screamed and rushed up.
Zhang Ye exclaimed later: "Old Xie, are you crazy? Come back! ”
As he spoke, he immediately jumped out, dragged the man back, and was about to put on the incendiary bomb, when suddenly he saw that Cheng Zi straightened up strangely, his neck was stretched long, and his eyes were bloodshot. He opened his mouth wide, as if he wanted to shout but couldn't, and the expression on his face was distorted to the extreme.
Then I heard a muffled sound of 'poof', and a huge centipede popped out of his mouth. Cheng Zi's hideous expression froze on his face, and the whole person fell to the ground stiffly, never moving again.
Immediately after, more than a dozen blood-stained centipedes emerged from his body. Suddenly, his entire body was pierced into a sieve by centipedes, and blood flowed all over the ground.
We were stunned, frightened, everyone gathered together, and no one dared to rush up for a while, and the shuttle bullet shot by Lao Xie just now, although it also knocked over a few centipedes, but at this time it was useless, but it stimulated the ferocity of the centipede even more.
In the blink of an eye, Cheng Zi's body was already shattered, and under the remnants of the huge centipedes, his body was gnawed away in an instant, and almost only bones remained.
However, even so, at least more than half of the dense centipede swarm was watching from a distance.
Lu Haikong walked over and said in a deep voice: "These centipedes are extremely large, and one or two people may not be enough for them to eat in one meal." Don't be stunned, this thing is not an enemy, listen to my orders, and before those centipedes have not yet surrounded them, immediately light a fire, and then retreat in the direction of Wolf Juxu Mountain. ”
I can guess from the appearance of those centipedes, they eat Cheng Zi's corpse, and then it will be our turn. The crowd immediately dispersed, but there were bushes all around, and dead branches and logs could be picked up everywhere, and soon the fire was lit.
Those centipedes were about to devour Cheng Zi's corpse, leaving only the white bones of Sensen, and many other centipedes were also eager to try there, but the fire had already been lit, and those centipedes were squirming densely there, but they did not come forward for a while.
The method of land, sea and air really worked, but Lao Pan looked around and asked Tuge: "This is just past the border, will anyone find out if you light a fire?" ”
Tug was already frightened by the scene in front of him, trembling all over, and said with a pale face: "No, it's okay, there are all kinds of strange things in the desert, as long as it's not on the border line, no one usually pays attention, everyone run, I, I've heard of these things, this is called the blood dragon, the legend is that it is the incarnation of the divine dragon in the sky, in the desert, as long as anyone who angers them, they will all die"
"What a bullshit dragon incarnation." Zhang Ye said and took out a torch from the fire and told everyone: "These centipedes are afraid of fire, everyone retreat immediately." ”
As soon as his words fell, a centipede suddenly sprang out of nowhere in the darkness, and actually pounced on Zhang Ye in the air, but it was also dead, and the knife in Zhang Ye's hand flashed, and the centipede was cut off by the waist, and it couldn't stop twisting on the ground, and it seemed to be alive.
At this moment, a few centipedes swam out next to him, but these people were all well-trained except for me, and a few daggers were cut out, and they immediately cut those centipedes into several sections, which could be regarded as avenging Cheng Zi.
But this is not the way to do it after all, these centipedes are so numerous, how can they be killed? What's more, these centipedes are obviously highly poisonous, and if they are bitten casually, I am afraid that they will not even survive for a few minutes.
We began to retreat slowly, so as not to irritate the centipedes, and just after a few steps, under the hands of Lu Haikong in front, a bearded man turned back, and said with a pale face: "There are also centipedes surrounding over there."
We took a few steps back, leaned against the fire, and looked forward by the light of the fire, and sure enough, as the bearded man said, the centipedes on the outside had already outflanked us from the other side, and they seemed to have been trained, and together with the centipedes behind us, they actually formed a situation of encirclement of us.
In the blink of an eye, after those huge centipedes devoured Cheng Zi's corpse, they also began to approach us in an orderly manner. But out of fear of the firelight, they didn't move very quickly.
However, even though the speed was slow, it was gradually approaching, and my palms were sweaty, and I asked in a low voice, "What should I do, who has a good way?" ”
"There is no good way, the only way is to rush out." Lu Haikong said in a deep voice, and as he spoke, he instructed everyone: "Everyone takes two torches, a saber and a dagger, back to back with each other, and slowly moves outward, Zhang Ye, you and I take the lead." ”
As soon as he gave the order, everyone immediately did so, and immediately surrounded the city in a circle, forming a defensive formation, Lu Haikong and Zhang Ye held short knives, and took the lead and slowly moved in the direction of Wolf Juxu Mountain
But those centipedes, like a group of ghosts in the desert, although they are more afraid of the torches in our hands, they are still slowly shrinking the encirclement, seeing that a big war is about to begin!
The Forbidden Land of the Celestial Tomb is a lost city
