Chapter 168: No Exit
The emaciated members of the Western Expedition Team failed to usher in the long-lost ground, but came to a transparent patio.
On the other side of the patio, there was still a dark crypt passage, and I was so disgusted that I didn't want to look at it more, because I was fed up and continued to stay in the dark and damp underground.
All the people of the Western Expedition sat on the ground dejectedly. I also want to rest on the spot, thinking that it is better to just sleep here and bask in the moonlight is also a good temporary enjoyment. I've been in the damp underground, and I feel like my bones are about to rust, and now I can take the opportunity to let the mold in my body dissipate a little.
However, hunger, the residual poison in our bodies, and the ghost babies chasing after us all force us to keep going until we find a safe place to live.
In the mysterious and abnormal Kunlun Mountain, where will there be a safe place? Without a safe place for demons and monsters, is it possible to really exist in the mysterious Kunlun Mountains? This thought made me a little frustrated, and I was very reluctant to stand up.
The remaining seven members of the Western Expedition team helped each other to their feet, then cheered each other on, left the bright patio, and began to continue walking in the dim and damp cavern.
My heart was depressed to the extreme, and I kept asking myself in the depths of my heart, will there be no end to this darkness? Disappointment is corroding my firm faith and will, and a little disappointment will turn into despair, and when the time comes, I am not sure that I will be able to lead everyone out of this dim underground.
In the pitch black, everyone did not usher in the expected ground passage to heaven, but encountered demons from hell.
The giant baby with a blue face and a cracked mouth was unexpectedly blocked in front of the passage. blocked the way of the people. No one knew how the ghost baby could move freely underground, and perhaps he knew about the other underground passages. So the shortcut stopped us; Maybe the ghost baby has the ability to move the universe and moved here in an instant. I don't know why, anyway. It was once again very strange in front of everyone, blocking the only way.
I turned on the flashlight that I had been reluctant to use, and I was shocked to find that many skeleton monsters had appeared on the ground under everyone's feet, and they were about to grab everyone's trouser legs. Seeing this, I immediately beckoned everyone to turn around and run back, and soon we came to the transparent patio again under the perseverance of the ghost child.
The moonlight shone on the body of the giant ghost baby, which was the people of the Western Expedition team. For the first time, when they had the opportunity to see the specific appearance of the ghost baby so clearly, all of them were shocked and terrified. To date, the Ghost Baby is by far the most terrifying, terrifying, and ugly monster I have ever seen, and there are no words to describe its shocking horror and horror.
The darkness was accompanied by despair, and the Western Expedition team could only desperately drive the legs that were almost unable to move, and kept running forward.
As a result, we returned to the cave that was full of deep pits of the sword formation. There was no way ahead, so we had to run towards the cave on the right.
In the darkness, everyone ran for a long time. The skeletal hand behind me, who was chasing after me, had already climbed up my calf. The legs, which had lost their strength, were now tightly grasped by the skeleton ghost hands, and many people became weak in their legs. Unable to pull, they fell to the ground and helped each other to rescue. It was only a few times that he broke free from the skull's grasp. But the situation is very bad, and it goes on like this. Maybe at some point, the crowd will never be able to stand up again.
I used my horn scimitar to smash the skeletal hand that was grabbing my ankle. Occasionally look back at the state of the blue-faced ghost baby. It doesn't crawl very fast, but only drives the Skeleton Hand to raid and attack. As long as we speed up the run, we can get rid of it lightly. However, today's team members are hungry and exhausted, and it is already difficult to escape for their lives, so how can they still have the strength to speed up the pace of running. If this continues, everyone will soon run out of bodies, and will eventually be dragged away by the skeleton monster and reduced to a meal on the plate of the blue-faced ghost baby.
As a result, soon, the cruel God deprived the Western Expedition team of the last bit of hope for survival. The path to the cave passage came to an end. The cold, damp walls of earth blocked us from the hope of life. Everyone had no choice but to turn around, their backs pressed against the cold earth wall, and they had to look directly at the blue-faced ghost baby who kept crawling towards us.
Although everyone kept smashing the skeleton ghost hands that appeared on the ground, they all felt deep despair in their hearts.
The giant body of the blue-faced ghost baby crawling on the ground filled the cave passage to the brim, and there was no gap. The ghost baby cracked to the base of his ears with a large mouth full of fangs, and sticky saliva kept coming out, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to swallow us.
This is the first time I've confronted the blue-faced ghost baby head-on, and everyone is scrambling to smash the skeleton monster hand that is dragging their legs, and then the blue-faced ghost baby is slowly crawling over.
Suddenly, Tianyu beside me fell to the ground, and her body was grabbed by the hands of many skeleton monsters, and she was transported out more than a dozen paces away in an instant.
My heart was about to stop beating, and in the blink of an eye, my body moved, and I jumped forward, the horn scimitar slashing at the skeleton hand that was crushing the rain.
At this time, the fat man also quickly jumped in front of me, and the two of us rescued Tianyu from the skull's hands, and when I pulled Tianyu to stand up. Suddenly, a large number of water droplets smashed on the top of my head, and I couldn't help but look up in amazement, only to see the blue-faced ghost baby with its head down, with a large mouth full of fine fangs, less than a foot away from my head, and I was so frightened that I was stiff and stunned.
Tianyu, who was pulled into my arms, reacted very quickly and quickly, she vigorously pushed me who was still in a daze, causing my body to tilt to the right side, and dodged the fangs of the blue-faced ghost baby in time. However, when the ghost baby saw the blow in the air, he immediately turned his head and bit me again. I didn't give the ghost baby any chance this time, and immediately raised the horn scimitar in my hand, and cut the forehead of the ghost baby. The ghost baby who was in pain immediately covered his forehead and fell to the ground, and I took the opportunity to pull up Tianyu, who was sitting on the ground, ran back to the front of everyone, and then began to smash the earth wall at the end of the passage.
Everyone in the Western Expedition was eager to meet the skeleton monster hand, but I smashed the wall with a horn scimitar as if I was crazy, and after seeing that it didn't have much effect, I snatched the Luoyang shovel that was used as a weapon in the hands of the fifth master, and then opened my arms and began to dig hard to dig the wall in front of me.
I guess everyone will think that I was driven crazy by now, and the fantasy of rushing to the doctor will have time to dig through the thief hole.
How could the earth wall at the end of the passage be dug through in a moment and a half. Surely before I could dig it out in time, everyone would have already become the womb of the ghost baby. But I'm not crazy, only I know, just now I clearly felt a cool air through the dirt wall, so behind the dirt wall, there must be a cold wind outside. And the earth wall is definitely not too thick, so the cold will come through.
But now there is no time to explain this, the ghost baby with his hands full of blood no longer covers his forehead and cries, but waves his hands, wanting to personally grab the members of the Western Expedition Team and use them to fight tooth sacrifices, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.
My round arms were about to be lifted soon, but I hadn't dug through the earth wall yet, and I couldn't help but wonder if my guess was really right. The digging movement became slower and slower as I became confused and uneasy, and my arms gradually became unable to rise.
At this time, the fat man jumped to my side, snatched the shovel, and quickly said to me: "Lao Zheng, I believe in you, I will leave it to me here, you go and buy me time." ”
The fat man, who is strong and healthy, is undoubtedly the best worker, and after he grabbed the shovel, he quickly waved his strong arms and dug hard.
The dirt was scattered, I immediately saw hope, and my body also had strength, and immediately turned around to protect the unsuspecting fat man behind me, brandished the horn scimitar, and began to slash the skeleton monster hands on the ground continuously, and from time to time used the knife to block the fat hands stretched out by the ghost baby.
The bodies of the Western Expedition team were running out little by little, but the blue-faced ghost baby and the skeleton monster hand were mercilessly launching more and more fierce attacks, seeing that we could only barely parry, and we had no strength to fight back at all. And the progress of the fat man behind him is still like spinning in place, and he can't see much success.
Suddenly, the thick wooden stick in the hand of the playboy was broken by the ghost baby, and he was almost caught by the ghost baby without a weapon to resist, but fortunately, Captain Chen, who was standing beside him, reacted quickly and slashed the ghost baby's arm with a short knife, which made the ghost baby start crying again, which also made the ghost baby stop attacking, and everyone felt a little more relaxed, and finally could take a breath.
The ghost baby's body was covered with hideous black wounds, and the current appearance of everyone in the Western Expedition Team was not much better at all, and everyone's legs were like blood gourds. I saw that Chen Dong still had half a skeleton monster hand hanging on his crotch, and he didn't have time to clean it up.
The fat man's excavation work was in full swing, sweating like rain. I was covered in cold sweat and wondered, saying, "What's the matter?" After such a long time, he has not dug through the earth wall, is it really his own speculation that is wrong? So the seven members of the Western Expedition Team really have only one way to die. By the time the ghost baby recovers his senses and attacks again, we will really be meat on the anvil and a meal on the plate.
Suddenly, at the moment when everyone flashed their minds, Chen Dong's left hand was grabbed by the fat hand of the blue-faced ghost baby.
Everyone was shocked and quickly grabbed Chen Dong's right arm and began to pull with the giant blue-faced ghost baby. Chen Dong's body was pulled on both sides and was about to be split in half, and he couldn't help moaning in pain.
At this time, the fat man, who was already exhausted, stopped digging, joined in the pulling action, and said to me very apologetically: "Lao Zheng, I underestimated the thickness of the wall. However, I am now stern my suspicions, is your inference accurate? (To be continued......)
