A terrifying scene occurred in front of him in an instant, and those black shadows were like sharks that had sniffed blood, like ghosts, and pounced on the golden tripod on the ground. I was shocked, and I couldn't imagine that it was really a disaster summoned by Jinding. The fat man was speechless, and Shirley Yang shook his head, signaling us to take the opportunity to escape. At this time, how could we have time to think about solving the mystery of the immortal golden tripod, and the three of them quickly evacuated the area surrounded by zongzi under the cover of white mist.

The overall area of the ancient city is not large, I remember that it didn't take long when I first walked, and I didn't even turn a few corners to find the rocky beach directly. But in the blink of an eye, everywhere has become so unfamiliar. After we climbed up from the rocky beach, we searched for about ten minutes, during which we saw a large number of black-skinned rice dumplings, which were frantically chased by them, and we never found the way we came. The fat man asked if it was because of the fog, and we all knew in our hearts that it was not a matter of sight at all, since the golden tripod was taken out by us, the whole tomb was like a fried pot, and the demons were dancing everywhere. We went around and around, but we couldn't find our way back, but there were more and more black-skinned rice dumplings gathered in the thick fog. When I saw the situation in front of me, I knew in my heart that I would definitely not be able to get out for a while, so I led the two of them into a dilapidated ancient house. This house was much more dilapidated than the two we had investigated, with no tiles covering the top of the head, and cracks at the corners of the walls, which were not suitable for hiding. But there are zongzi wandering around us, and this building is currently the closest bunker to us.

As soon as the fat man entered the room, he sat down on the ground and did not move, and Shirley Yang was also sweating profusely and sticking to the door, panting. When I rested, I realized that my clothes were soaked, and I couldn't tell whether it was sweat or spring water.

"What about the others?" Rare moment of crisis Shirley Young remembers others.

I shook my head and said, "We can't protect ourselves, how can we take care of that grandfather and grandson." Don't worry, the ancestors and grandchildren of the Wang family are very hard, maybe they have already been killed. ”

The fat man was so tired that he couldn't even speak, so he waved his hands for a long time, then turned over and looked outside the house, and sat down on the ground again. "What the fuck is going on, let's catch up with the zongzi meeting? No, it's only a little bigger, I don't think there are thousands outside, it should be more than a hundred, and I don't feel too crowded. ”

"The question now is very simple, the first is how to determine the direction and find the way back, and the second is how to safely cross the blockade," I said. ”

"Isn't that? I was able to go, and I didn't all go just now. You didn't see how many zongzi there were in front of you, and you caught up with the ** flag-raising. ”

Shirley Yang looked up at the situation outside, lowered his head and said, "The internal structure of the ancient city is more complicated than we imagined. Now there are zongzi everywhere outside, and you can't get out of the main road. Why don't you wait here for a while? It would be best if they could disperse as they did before, but judging by the shape in front of them, I'm afraid it will be more difficult. ”

I also understand that what she said is not unreasonable, the group of people in Waseda has long been scattered, the whereabouts of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Wang family are unknown, and the only reinforcements we can expect are Lin Fang, Xu San and Professor Li. They were wounded, weak, and one was as timid as a mouse. Don't expect them to save people, it's a blessing that you don't get in. The fat man sighed and rummaged through his backpack and pulled out a wet kettle for a long time. He shook it and said, "The soak in the pool just now is nothing else, but the kettle is full." I still have a dagger here, and if you're unfortunate enough to be captured later, don't hesitate. ”

"Isn't it too early for you to explain what happened? Lin Fang is still looking forward to it. Besides, we're not there yet. I gave him an elbow, pointed to the dark streets and said, "Big deal, I'll be a pioneer for the guys, and lead them ......-

"Don't make jokes like that," Shirley Young interrupted me in a sinister voice, "This place is safe for the time being, let's wait and see." ”

Originally, we tensed the nerves all over our bodies, thinking that we would be able to rush out with one blow. But it was put off again and again, and when it came time to rest, I realized that everyone was exhausted. We took turns keeping an eye on the outside of the house. I don't know how long I squatted, but my legs slowly became numb, and I couldn't help but twist to the side. Shirley Yang wiped his sweat and returned to us and said, "It is estimated that there will be no changes in the short term, it seems that we have to find another way." ”

The fat man rested for a while, and he had gradually regained his spirits. He nodded and said, "It's not our style to sit still. As I thought earlier, there are a lot of buildings in the old city, and we can use them as a place to move out, little by little. Anyway, those black-skinned zongzi are slow to react and have difficulty moving, as long as we make good use of these weaknesses, it is estimated that there is no big problem. ”

I was relieved to see him pick himself up again. But there is another problem that plagues us at the moment, the fog is so thick that it is impossible to discern the direction, let alone find the exit. For a moment the three of them fell into deep thought again, and I looked at Shirley Young, remembered her blue codex, and hurriedly asked if she was still there. She was pleasantly surprised: "How did I forget it?" I took notes when I came, and I had some mini-maps that might come in handy. ”

I remember that at that time, Shirley Young drew some sketches in his notebook in order to distinguish the buildings in the ancient city and make it easier to find the traces of the fat man. We took out the blue book and flipped through Shirley Young's records. She pointed to one of them and said, "These dots are the coordinates where we were at that time." I nodded and said, "The second fork should be the location of the three-story building, and then we went down the main road...... I suddenly felt as if I had seen this landmark somewhere, so I pulled the fat man to the door, and looked around for the building in my impression." The fat man reacted very quickly and quickly understood what I was talking about. He stretched out his fingers and trembled slightly, "I remember, I remember." It's where we lost the golden tripod! The building on the side seems to be three-storey, quite high! ”

Shirley Yang was annoyed: "Blame me for being in a hurry and not noticing such an obvious landmark." We went around in a circle, and we got farther and farther away from the exit. ”

I said, "Now is not the time to worry about this, everyone prepare, and it is important to go back." "Knowing that the exit was just a stone's throw away, everyone was no longer discouraged, threw off their backpacks, and traveled lightly, striving to reach the first safety hut in the shortest possible time." This has to go according to plan, I'll run first later, they're sensitive to sound, don't shoot anyway. You run straight into the three-story building, and I'll lure them away and join you. I deliberately explained in a relaxed tone, "Don't look at their size, their speed is really not good, I suddenly have a feeling of victory, do you think you need to let them have half a leg?" ”

Shirley Yang said unhappily: "When is it, still making such low-level jokes." Now it is different from the past, there are too many zongzi, once people are surrounded to death, it is difficult to get out, there is no 100% certainty, and you can't take this risk lightly. ”

Neither the fat man nor I were willing to wait any longer, so he persuaded us: "We can't delay any longer, we are now without water and food, and we have no supplies, and we can't count on people from outside to help." What about them? It's been rotting underground for hundreds of years, and it's not alive. We can't use our own shortcomings to collide with others' strengths, and a quick solution is the right way. ”

I saw that Shirley Yang was still hesitating, and regardless of whether she agreed or not, she stood up and ran in the opposite direction. No sooner had I pounced on my front foot than I caught a glimpse of the black shadows that stood around me and began to tremble violently, and then, almost at the same time, they turned around and silently pursued them in the thick fog. I rushed straight to the cliff from memory, planning in my heart that I could drag it out for a while, at least to buy Shirley Yang and them more time to move. From time to time, there are black-skinned rice dumplings in front of me, I don't know if it's my delusion, I always feel that their speed is a little slower than before. In order to test my idea, I deliberately slowed down and saw that one of the lone lone was kicked hard, and the guy was as hard and strong as I expected, and I was bounced out of it myself. It seemed to sense that someone was sneaking up, "Whoosh-the ground whistled down, I lowered my head and flashed, the zongzi was full of strength, and with one blow smashed the wooden stake standing beside it."

The huge movement soon attracted all the surrounding zongzi, and they swooped down on me in twos and threes. I gradually learned some patterns between the left and right dodging, and as I had just noticed, their movements were gradually becoming sluggish, and a few of them were so close that I could clearly see their dark, chapped skin peeling off. Although I don't know what caused these zongzi to start to decompose, it is definitely great news for us who are in a desperate situation. If this physical reaction can be accelerated, the zongzi in front of you will no longer pose any threat, and it will disappear in a snap of a finger. I was in a state of excitement and strengthened my feet, so I dodged several attacks in quick succession, and came to the cliff without danger.

The further I ran, the more sparse the buildings became, indicating that I was close to the cliff, and the fog was thick all around, and if I walked further, I was in danger of falling. I deliberately picked a few large rocks and threw them straight ahead one by one. A few of them quickly smashed into the ground and made a crashing sound, and I took advantage of the swarming rice dumplings to hide sideways behind a ruined wall that I had been observing. As soon as I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, I caught a glimpse of a black shadow behind me, and I was shocked, blaming myself for not being careless, and actually asking others to take a detour. I didn't have time to think about it, I just felt that there was a cool breeze in my ears, and the other party had already attacked. My cheeks immediately turned red, and I threw a backhand punch into it. The guy reacted quickly, and immediately raised his hand to block, but the space was limited, and there was a rock wall behind it, it snorted, and then pounced on it desperately. Although I can't see the other party's appearance clearly, I've never heard that zongzi will cry out in pain, since the other party is a person, it doesn't matter who it is, everyone now has to clench their fists and unite with the outside. I snorted and said, "Are you crazy? There are dumplings outside, do you want to lure them all over? ”

"Hu Bayi?" Suddenly, I was nervous when someone called my name, and the guy on the other side quickly poked his head out of the white mist.

When I saw it, it was Wang Dashao, who was holding a dagger and looked at me incredulously, "Aren't you leaving?" ”

I hurriedly grabbed him and whispered, "Shut up, don't you know what's going on outside?" ”

He covered his mouth and nodded, his eyes staring at the shadows that kept drifting outside. The two of us clung to the crumbling wall, silently waiting for the group of zongzi to leave. I don't know how long I held it back, but my line of sight finally became a little refreshed, and Wang Qingzheng asked impatiently: "Have you found a way out?" Grandpa is injured, and I'm going to do my best to get him out of here. ”

"What about people?"

As soon as I finished asking, Wang Qingzheng's eyes changed, and he once again held his weapon and glared at me vigilantly. I said helplessly: "Young Master, you also know the queen mother." I'm going to hurt you, it's a great opportunity just now, why do you go so hard to deceive you? Everyone is trapped in this hellish place, what good is it for me that you die and you won't grow an extra piece of meat. He hesitated, but then let out of breath and said, "I'm panicking now, and I don't have the heart to do anything with you." You come with me. ”

Wang Qingzheng glanced at the movement outside the wall, and then beckoned to me. I followed him closely, sneaking some distance against the rock wall, and he stopped and pulled on his flashlight, ducking his head into the gap between the walls. I didn't expect there to be such a hidden hideout, and it's a shame that they could find it.

The slits between the rock walls were a little wider than they looked, and we walked a few steps sideways, and soon saw Wang Puyuan leaning against the corner. The old man was short of breath and pale, and I saw that his left leg was wrapped in a thick garment, and blood was oozing from the corners of his clothes. I realized that he was not lightly injured, so I hurriedly stepped forward with Wang Dashao to investigate.

Wang Puyuan didn't seem to expect that the person who would come would be me, struggling to sit up. Wang Dashao stepped forward to help him and was thrown aside. I said, "When is this?" Don't be so stubborn with me, pretend to be old and strong. The injury is so bad, it must be dealt with quickly. ”

"It's all my fault, too careless, otherwise grandpa wouldn't have been smashed."

I said, "It's better to be smashed than to be gnawed by a dumpling, and your guilt now won't change anything." It's only true to get people out before it's too late. ”
