Mountain and Sea Demon Tomb Chapter 5: Man-eating Ants (5)
Hu Bayi, Hu Bayi, you believe that you have read a book of feng shui secrets, so you rashly put your net worth and life behind, just trying to satisfy your curiosity and material desires, not only killed yourself, but also took the life of a good friend, and now retribution is coming. Thinking of this, I not only despaired, but suddenly lost the fighting spirit to resist and struggle, and waited to die. It's just that I feel guilty in my heart, and I feel sorry for the fat man and Shirley Yang.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a fire rising in front of him, and saw Shirley Young take off his coat and make a torch to ignite the army of man-eating ants thrown in front of the fat man. The ant colony was less than half a meter away from the fat man, and was attacked by the sudden fire, but instead of fleeing in a panic, they pounced on the ignited fireball in a very tacit and organized manner, and even the man-eating ants that bit the back of my hand gave up biting and threw themselves at the fireball.
The fat man and I were temporarily relieved, and quickly felt the flashlight to check the wound. The back of my left hand had some bones exposed, and the fat man's leg was also dripping with blood. I hurriedly asked Shirley about Yang's injury. Shirley Yang said confusedly, "There are no ants biting me at all." "I was taken aback by the fat man, I took a flashlight and went over to check, and sure enough, there were no signs of injury on her body. It's too late to think about the reasons now, and it's important to avoid these demons as soon as possible.
The tunnel was filled with the smell of clothes and ants being burned, and the smoke choked all three of us. The fireball was already completely covered in ants, and the outermost ant was already charred and crackling. As the ants gathered more and more, the fire gradually became smaller. Seeing this, the fat man shouted: "It's not good, these ants sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and they have the posture of sacrificing themselves to save the people of our party, and the fire is about to be extinguished!" As he spoke, he took off his coat and lit it.
I stopped the fat man and said, "There are a huge number of these ants, even if the three of us strip off all our clothes and light them, I'm afraid we won't be able to destroy them, and then there will be no clothes to cover it, and it will be even more difficult to rush over." We've got to find a way to break through this man-eating ant defense. The further down the tunnel, the lower the terrain, the wetter it must be, and these ants will not survive. ”
Shirley Yang suddenly said to me, "Old Hu, quick, take off the backpack on your back." "I knew she was a sure person, so I took my backpack off and handed it to her. Shirley Young rummaged through his backpack for a moment, pulling out two pairs of straps and a vial of liquid fuel. Shirley Yang said anxiously while disassembling the straps: "These straps were originally used for bandaging or rescue when necessary, I don't know if I can break out a way out for us, so I can only try." As he spoke, he handed me one end of the strap and the other end to the fat man, and sprinkled the liquid fuel evenly on the strap himself. The fat man and I immediately understood what she meant, and hurried to help sprinkle the straps with fuel. Once the fuel had been evenly spilled, Shirley Young rolled up the strap, and the fireball was finally extinguished by the ants, plunging the tunnel into darkness again. The ants approached us again in a neat row, and the sound of rattling filled the entire tunnel, strongly stimulating our eardrums.
The fat man quickly took off his coat, lit it and threw it at the colony. Whew, another fireball rises, and the ants rush forward and rush towards the fireball, it seems that this fire will be extinguished again soon, and we must do our best to break through this ant array. Shirley Yang rolled up the straps and shouted, "Fatty, get out of the way!" The fat man flashed to the side, and Shirley Young put the strap upright on the ground, rolled forward, and the strap rolled down the slope of the tunnel, and it was unfolded in an instant. I picked up the lighter I had prepared and lit the fuel-soaked strap, and in an instant a dragon stretched forward.
As usual, the ants threw themselves into the flames, trying to extinguish the fire in numbers. Shirley Yang said to me and the fat man, "These two straps are about twenty meters long, and we have to crawl along this fire road." I don't know if there are ants after more than 20 meters, and I'm not sure if this fire road can climb over. ”
The fat man said impatiently: "Chief of Staff Yang, why are you like a mother-in-law and a big aunt who buys vegetables, we have no other choice, just rush hard." Fat man, my life is hard, God hasn't said let me die in the mouths of these wretched people. As he spoke, he took a deep breath and took the lead and crawled along the burning ties. Shirley Young followed, and I ended as usual.
