The back of my hand was just a little itchy, and I didn't feel any pain, but when I pinched it with my fingers, it hurt so much that I almost fell off the platform. I hurriedly unscrewed the spotlight on my helmet, and near my wrist, there were two or three small black-green flesh buds, which hurt as if they were tearing down when I touched them, and my whole arm was hurt with bone marrow.

At this time, Shirley Yang, Fat Man and others also turned on the light source, and I asked them to see what was wrong, but except for me, Shirley Yang, Uncle Ming, and Fat Man were all fine.

This thing is really strange, since everyone came to this Black Tiger Xuantan, they have never separated half a step, how can it be that I am abnormal, and if I don't think of a way, I am afraid that I will also grow blood bait safflower.

I was ignoring the place, and I found Ah Xiang lying unconscious next to me, her nose was dripping blood, and half of her face was covered with green flesh buds, and her hands were also there. Ah Xiang sometimes sees something she doesn't want to see, her nose will bleed, just outside in the cave, she just saw the blood bait safflower, and her nose began to bleed, this phenomenon has been done before, and it has not attracted our attention.

Now I realized that the blood bait, a plant that spreads death, spreads invisible pollen in the air, and once it touches blood, it grows and sprouts. From the first time Ah Xiang saw it, he had already been infected with blood poison.

Presumably, when Ah Xiang grabbed my wrist just now, she stained the back of my hand, and then she passed out, I thought she saw something underneath, where did she think of this accident.

Shirley Yang wanted to help Ah Xiang stop the bleeding, I quickly told Sùshirley Yang not to touch the blood, press Ah Xiang's upper ear bone with my fingers, you can also stop the nosebleed, the left nostril is bleeding blood pressure in the right ear, and the right side is pressed on the left ear, but in any case, it can't get the blood on her body.

Blood bait is interpreted in Yin Yang Feng Shui as a place of excessive vitality, where the corpse dies without decay, and the qi and blood do not decay, and over the years, not only does the corpse slowly begin to swell and become larger, but also blooms every twelve hours. The dead are just gone, and this kind of thing grows in the body of the living, there are only two choices, the first is to escape far away, leave this place where the anger is too strong, and the blood bait will naturally be cured, but this area is the source of the ancestral dragon, and it only relies on the 11th, and it is difficult to escape for a while; Then stay here, and when this blood bait, known as the fruit of the living, blossoms and bears fruit, the living person will become a swollen corpse.

Uncle Ming saw that his goddaughter had three souls, seven souls, and her life was only in an instant, so he cried and said with a sad face: "Is there any mistake, this time it's really all over, Ma Zai and the bodyguard are gone, his wife is gone, the glacier crystal corpse is gone, and now even his goddaughter is going to die......"

I said to Uncle Ming: "Don't howl first, I also have blood bait on my hands, you can't bear your goddaughter, and I can't bear myself." At present, we should hurry up and find a way, don't Tibetan villagers often say such a proverb——— it is better to come up with a way as big as a button to shed tears that fill the water beach. ”

When Uncle Ming heard that there was still salvation, he hurriedly asked me, "So you have a way?" Sure enough, Brother Hu is confident and in danger, and he doesn't know what to do? Please also make it clear to relieve the old decay and foolishness. If I can really save Ah Xiang, I am willing to marry my goddaughter to you, and we will be a family in the future......"

I didn't answer, I snorted coldly in my heart, the old port farmer was afraid that I would leave him alone when I was in danger, and he wanted to marry me, but he also underestimated people, this kind of gimmick to bluff the fat man, maybe it can have some effect.

Unexpectedly, the fat man was not stupid at all, and said to Uncle Ming on the side: "Uncle Ming, if you really feel sorry for Ah Xiang, are you willing to take such a big risk to bring her to Tibet?" Why didn't your two precious sons come along to help? It's really almost a problem if it's not biological. ”

The fat man didn't have any scruples when he spoke, and these few words just now really stabbed Uncle Ming's sore spot. Uncle Ming was irrefutable, his face was blue and red for a while, and he looked very embarrassed.

I bumped the fat man with my elbow and told him to stop talking. People who are not saints and sages are selfish, and it is no wonder that he is not a saint.

Shirley Yang saw that we didn't care about Ah Xiang's life and death, and we were about to quarrel on the stone platform, while holding Ah Xiang's ear bone to stop the bleeding, and said to us: "Don't fight, all things in the world complement each other, and within five steps of the pit viper, there will be antidote grass." The little green creature below feeds on the blood bait, and there must be something in it that can detoxify the blood bait, or maybe it has eaten something else in the cave......"

I nodded, "If you take three steps, you can achieve three things; If you squat still, you will only starve to death. Fatty, you go down with me and catch that little green-haired guy. With that, he threw the two cold fireworks off the stone platform, and the puppy-like animal below was lying on the ground eating the last few fruits on the corpse, and if it didn't do anything, it might have to burrow back into the crevice after eating.

The fat man took advantage of the light of the cold fireworks to see the situation below, and wanted to save trouble, so he took out his pistol and hit it. I was too late to stop him, and in my hurry I raised his arm, and the fat man shot him into the cave wall.

The bullet hit the rubble and splashed it, and this shock was not small, and the little animal, which seemed to be blind and stupid, was also alarmed, turned around and crawled back. I said to the fat man, "Don't kill it, catch it alive first." As he spoke, he jumped off the stone platform and landed just on the male corpse below, blocking the dog's path.

The stone platform was not too high, and the fat man turned upside down, and climbed down with me, sandwiching the green-haired puppy between them. Both of them drew out their sapper shovels, this thing seemed stupid and stupid, only knew how to eat the fruit of the living, but the limbs were thick, and it seemed to have a lot of strength. At this time, it felt blocked in front and back, constantly turning in circles, and a large mouth grew on its snake-like face, which emitted a fishy smell from its vain and void.

The little beast was covered in folds of flesh and covered with green bristles. I've never heard of this kind of animal in the world, and the fat man and I have preconceived ideas, always thinking that this thing may be a zombie, maybe some kind of beast becomes a zombie after death, since the black and green smell must be poisonous, but the body shape is only the size of an ordinary puppy, it seems that it is not difficult to capture it alive.

The little beast spun around twice in place, aimed at the fat man, opened its mouth and bit hard, and rushed forward, and the fat man picked up the sapper shovel and slapped it, and smashed it on its head. Although the little beast had very thick skin, it was hit by the sapper's shovel, and it was so painful that it burst into a frenzy, and jumped up and threw the fat man to the ground. The fat man shoved the black donkey's hooves forward and tucked them into its mouth.

The dog-like animal had never tasted the hooves of a black donkey, and perhaps it was not very tasty, and kept shaking its head to spit it out. The fat man pressed his head against its mouth, grabbed its forelimbs with both hands, and the two sides stiffened together.

I wrapped a dozen times of duct tape around the little monster's mouth from behind, and tied its legs and feet with rope.

I dragged the fat man up from the ground, and the fat man said to me, "This thing is much easier to deal with than I thought." Probably it doesn't have anything else to do but eat and sleep every day, but what is it? I don't think it's a dog. ”

When Uncle Ming and Shirley Yang saw that we had succeeded, they immediately took Ah Xiang down from the stone platform. The blood bait and flesh buds on the back of my hands have doubled in size, and Ah Xiang's situation is much stricter than mine, if I don't help him, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life.

The fat man kicked the animal we caught: "Can this guy be the antidote?" Seeing that it looks so ugly, it can't help that the flesh and blood in its body are poisonous, is it to fight poison with poison? ”

Shirley Yang said: "I don't know what this animal is, but there are two possibilities, one is that the things secreted in its body can dissolve the blood, or the other is the environment it lives in or the other food it eats, which can neutralize the toxicity, and a search near this cave may be rewarding." ”

We didn't dare to delay, and we split up to look at the bottom of the cave.

I walked to the bottom of the huge iceberg crystal, which was engraved with a large number of tantric symbols, and before I could even see what the figures on the stone were about, I noticed something strange under the stone. It turned out that we looked like a mahogany coffin from above, but in fact, under the big crystal, there was an empty turtle shell with black lines on a red background, which had been pressed by the stone for a long time, and the giant turtle may have died and rotted all the time.

Uncle Ming also saw this empty turtle shell. The tortoise shell with black stripes on a red background is extremely rare, and it is said that the "phoenix dragon turtle" is a four-spirit animal, and the turtle in it is a thousand-year-old turtle that refers to the color on the shell that has changed to dark red. Uncle Ming thought for a moment, looked back at the animal caught by the fat man, and hurriedly said to me, "This time it has developed...... That thing is not a zombie of a dog, but a molting turtle, and Ah Xiang is saved. ”

I saw that Uncle Ming was too excited and a little incoherent, so I asked him to calm down and make his words clear.

Uncle Ming didn't care about it anymore, so he first cut off a piece of the turtle shell with a shovel, mashed it with water, and smeared it on the place where Ah Xiang and I had blood bait. It was cool to the bones, and the tingling and pain on the skin immediately alleviated a lot.

Seeing that Ah Xiang was out of danger, Uncle Ming told us that when Peter Huang was a bandit in the past, he intercepted a passenger ship, but the strange thing is that all the people on board have died, and many mushroom-like blood algae have grown on the many corpses in the cabin. The pirates killed a large lizard-like animal on board. The pirate boss was familiar with things in the sea and knew that there might be something hidden on this ship, so he ordered people to search carefully, and sure enough, he found a turtle shell caught in the cargo hold. The old turtle that can molt must have eaten something special in the water, and it has become a sperm, killing all the people on the boat, and where it crawls, flesh and grass will grow on the deceased.

In the abyss below the top of the dragon, there is probably too much anger, so a corpse can grow blood bait repeatedly.

Its shell is a treasure, and all poisons can be cured, and it is difficult to find in the world. This whole turtle shell can no longer be said to be sky-high, it is a priceless treasure. At that time, the pirates fought each other for this thing, and many people died, and Peter Wong almost gave up his life. It was at that time that Uncle Ming rescued Peter Huang at sea, and only then did he know from him that there was this kind of molting turtle, and when he brought people back to look for it again, the pirate ship had exploded and sunk, so he had to return in defeat.

Now I see the empty turtle shell pressed under the crystal, and the texture and color are unusually comparable. It seems that people still have to accumulate virtue, and they saved Peter Huang's life with their efforts, but now they have also saved their goddaughter. Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and doing more good deeds will be rewarded.

As soon as the fat man heard that this thing was so valuable, he quickly started to dig out all the turtle shells. I thought to myself that Uncle Ming said in the end, and then turned the words back, and knocked me sideways, maybe he was in those places in Nanyang, Hong Kong, and there was a lack of enough sincerity between people, but it was really disgusting to say this, and I would find an opportunity to scare him half to death in the future, so I temporarily perfunctory Uncle Ming said: "I don't see the mountains to see, I don't know how to ask the old man, there are very few people who know everything and everything, and there are even fewer people who are incompetent, or you are an old man who is well-informed, and we have never heard of this kind of strange news......"

I was absent-mindedly talking to Uncle Ming, but my eyes were staring at the huge square iceberg crystal, and after only a few glances, the graphics on it sucked my eyes firmly, could it be that the king of Yunnan had ever been here?

The huge square iceberg crystal is divided into five layers, each with some simple stone carvings. I couldn't understand a lot of ciphertext and symbols, but the graphics in them were clear at a glance. On the top layer, there are many vicious murder rituals engraved, which are very similar to the rhizome of Yunnan Xianwang, which is to brutally kill people and attach them to the human body with something special to transform the resentment of the deceased into some kind of power.

I didn't bother to look any further, and hurriedly beckoned Shirley Yang to see this iceberg crystal. Shirley Yang Wenyan handed Ah Xiang over to Uncle Ming to take care of, walked under the crystal stone and watched intently, and said to me after a while: "The art of sacrificing the king originated in Tibet, and the art recorded on this stone is far less varied than the art of offering the king, and it is unpredictable. This may be the oldest source of the art of scabs, and it is still only an imperfect prototype, but the core of the art ——— the transformation of dead life into other energies——— has been fully embodied. Later, although the art of sacrificing the king was more complicated, it could not get out of this original framework. ”

Shirley Yang said that in fact, when he first saw Xue Maitreya being frozen by the poor god, he felt déjà vu, that kind of thing was really like a scab technique. After descending into the depths of the ice abyss, I saw a large number of freshwater jellyfish in the underground river, and I suspected that the original form of the snow millene was an aquatic vampire jellyfish, which gradually evolved into a state of survival in the snow ice during the catastrophe period when the mountain lake was transformed into an ancient glacier, and their fear of large salt may also be related to this. Perhaps the ancient demon kingdom or the reincarnation sect of later generations invented the evil art of "scabies" according to the characteristics of these creatures.

The Xuanwu giant corpse in this cave is also in line with the characteristics of "scabies" from some angles.

Look at the second layer of the iceberg crystal, on which is a woman with her hands covering her face; The third layer is a giant serpent with eyes on its head; The most important part of the fourth layer has been artificially worn out, but looking at the worn shape, it is a circle, and it may have been an eyeball mark before; The lowest layer is the most peculiar, with only something carved that looks like bones.

I pointed to this floor and said to Shirley Young, "This big stone is divided into several layers, from top to bottom, each layer has a different content, which is like the black tower that symbolizes the status of the ancient city. ”

Shirley Yang looked down again: "This is indeed an arrangement, but it is the complete opposite of that of the Exquisite Ancient City. Judging from the description of the demon kingdom in the poem of the Orb of Domination, the mark on this crystal stone should symbolize power or energy, not status, and the order is from top to bottom, and the lower the power, the stronger the power. ”

Although there is a certain difference with the Elite Realm, there is still a close connection, and this boulder alone can assert that there must be a deep connection between the Exquisite Ghost Cave Clan and the Demon Nation that worships the Abyss, perhaps the Ghost Cave Clan is a branch of the Northern Demon or Reincarnation Sect back then.

This proves that we are indeed approaching the truth of the "eyeball curse" step by step, as long as we find the evil Luo Hai City of the Demon Kingdom, maybe we can completely end it, but the evil Luo Hai City must be more sinister than the essence, and now, we can only gamble with our lives.

Then Shirley Yang and I found some of the rest of the crystal tablets in the cave, which did not have much text on them, and were all recorded in graphics. From the records in it, it can be known that the iceberg crystal stone that suppressed the molting turtle was a small part dug out of the "Gate of Disaster" by the Reincarnation Sect, and the stone carvings on it were all made by the Evil Luohai people. The "Gate of Calamity" itself is a huge crystal wall that cannot be crossed, and when the Demon Kingdom was destroyed, the "Gate of Calamity" closed the only passage from the outside world, and the later reincarnation sect dug a passage for it to wait for the day of reincarnation.

Search the whole cave, and get so much information, it can be inferred that placing a boulder in the gate of disaster in the cave as a place of sacrifice is used to show the reincarnation sect's deed of digging and opening the door to the demon kingdom; The corpses and turtles in the caves are special offerings. It is estimated that if you go down this river full of jellyfish, you will definitely find the crystal gate, and the city of Evil Luo Hai should not be far away.

At this time, the fat man had already dug out the shell of the spirit turtle, and the swollen corpse had become like a dead wood because the molting turtle had eaten up the blood bait that had grown, and it was estimated that it would not grow again until this time tomorrow to become the fruit of the living. The molting turtle that we captured alive looked at it again at this moment, and it was already motionless and dead. Probably due to being wrapped too tightly with duct tape, he suffocated to death. This thing was not a good thing, the whole body was poisonous, and it was ominous, so the fat man threw his corpse and the corpse of the man who could grow blood bait together, poured some flammable materials, and burned a fire to ashes.

I saw that there was no more value in the cave, so I led the group back to the cave outside. Ah Xiang's injuries are no longer in condition, but she has lost too much blood and needs plenty of rest now. The rest of the people were exhausted, and when they finally cleared the neighborhood of hidden dangers, they all fell asleep.

The abyss under the glacier doesn't matter whether it's day or night, until you don't want to sleep anymore, you get up and get ready to continue walking along the river.

I checked all the weapons, ammunition, food and equipment, and because of the low altitude here, I replaced all the assault suits, and I couldn't throw away the equipment to protect against the cold, because I might have to go out of the mountains in the future. In addition, since Uncle Ming and Ah Xiang can only carry the supplies for one person, and the rest will be distributed to me and the fat man, so try to travel as lightly as possible, throw away unnecessary things, and only bring necessities.

Uncle Ming was bargaining with the fat man, discussing how to divide the turtle shell, the two argued, but there was no result, and finally the fat man launched a rush and stuck the paratrooper knife on the ground, which clearly meant: "I'm too lazy to break with you, Hong Kong peasants, you just look at it, it's not to my liking after dividing, so it is necessary for us to take the knife and discuss again." ”

Uncle Ming had no choice but to compromise, according to the fat man's division method, the head was divided equally, so that the fat man took four-fifths and left only one-fifth for Uncle Ming.

Uncle Ming said: "Is there any mistake, fat boy, my goddaughter and I should share two parts, why is it only one-fifth?" ”

The fat man looked dazed: "Uncle Ming, you are also a smart person in the business field, why did you sleep all night and say stupid things when you woke up?" Ah Xiang's share, didn't she already use it up for her own treatment? The clouds of Karamir are white, and the hearts of those of us who fight in Karamir should be as pure as the clouds on the snow-capped mountains. Although I have always been innocent and simple, and I look like a fool, I also know that I don't eat radishes when I'm hungry, and I don't drink when I'm thirsty, and you old man don't take me for a fool just because you've eaten two more barrels of salty salt particles than us. ”

Uncle Ming has always been known for his shrewdness in the Nanyang antique industry, and he often considers himself a little Zhuge and has done a lot of big-money business, but at this moment, when he encounters a fat man, he will reason with him, and he will pretend to be stupid with you.

The fat man whistled and put the turtle shell in his bag. Uncle Ming saw the fat man's smug expression, and he was so angry that he couldn't bear his breath, so he had to hang his head to see his goddaughter.

I walked over and pulled Uncle Ming aside and told him about the situation he was facing: "Uncle Ming, you and Ah Xiang are not as good as us, we are ready not to go back this time, and you have three choices, the first is to go upstream along the river bank, but the chance of being able to get out there is half a point; Secondly, stay in the cave of this Black Tiger Xuantan and wait for us to come back to pick you up, but I don't know if we can have the life to come back, and what chance there is; In the end, follow us downstream, through the gate of disaster, behind that gate may be the evil Luohai City, this is absolutely dangerous, nine deaths, I may not be able to take care of your father and daughter, there is no guarantee of life safety. It's up to you to decide where to go. ”

I said to Uncle Ming, if you are willing to go separately, then give him all the spirit turtle shells, Uncle Ming was stunned, and quickly expressed his attitude: "Absolutely not separate, everyone must be together in life or death, go to the gate of disaster together, in the future, Ah Xiang will marry you, and my business will also be handed over to you to take over, then the spirit turtle shell is naturally yours, what else do we say as a family?" It didn't need to be discussed, it was decided. ”

I sighed in my heart: "It seems that the old porter farmer decided that we should leave him alone, no matter what, he always thought that we wanted to find a way to escape alone." It seems that the great dye vat of capitalism can really corrode the soul of people. From yesterday to now, I have also said to him several times, saying that three times it is as light as water, and whether you live or die when you go downstream depends on the creation of each person. ”
