I still don't understand what the shadow's cry means, but this time it screams so quickly that it feels like it's spotting something dangerous and alerting us.

I was about to ask what Ghost Eye Chen's shadow meant by that, but Ghost Eye Chen suddenly raised his head suddenly, and his face changed slightly.

I suddenly had an ominous premonition in my heart, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Chen, is there something wrong?" ”

As soon as he heard that there was a situation, his speech immediately became stammering: "Chen...... Uncle Chen, didn't you say that as long as there is a place where the coffin mushrooms grow, it will ...... There will never be any ghosts or anything like that, how can it be ......?"

Before he could finish speaking, Ghost Eye Chen waved his hand, frowned tightly, and said, "It's true that there won't be any ghosts and evil spirits, but there is a possibility that something more terrifying will appear. ”

"What's that?" I hurriedly asked.

Ghost Eye Chen took a deep breath and said word by word: "One-horned earth dragon!" ”

"You...... What do you say!? Dragon!? I shouted almost in unison.

I thought I had misheard, and asked, "Uncle Chen, were you talking about dragons just now!?" ”

Ghost Eye Chen nodded solemnly: "That's right! However, this one-horned earth dragon can not be regarded as a dragon in the real sense, but a snake genus, it is covered with dragon scales, no feet, and has a single horn on the top of its head, which can enter the water and drill into the ground, so it is called the one-horned earth dragon, also known as the dragon. As the old saying goes: the dragon has one horn, the two horns are wrong, and the hornless one is the hornless. It is said that this dragon is the product of dragon and snake mating. ”

"Jiaolong?" I was slightly stunned, "I've heard of this, but I always thought that the so-called Jiaolong was just a name for dragons, but I didn't expect that there was such a difference." ”

Ghost Eye Chen continued: "Jiaolong is not a divine beast, but after all, it has dragon blood flowing in its body, and it is no match for ordinary people. The reason why it appears in this vicinity is to consume the thousand-year-old coffin mushrooms in the ancient tomb, and it is said that the dragon can sublimate into a dragon as long as it consumes 7,749 thousand-year-old coffin mushrooms that have become humans! ”

"Damn, according to that, we are taking food from the dragon's mouth! Elder brother! Otherwise, let's forget it, it's a big deal to find another ancient tomb with a coffin mushroom on the rope, and I can't mess with this master! Listening to what Ghost Eye Chen said, the cheap couldn't help but retreat.

Ghost Eye Chen snorted lightly: "Hmph! Looking for another place? Easier said than done! Coffin mushrooms can be met but not sought, this thousand-year-old tomb with coffin mushrooms, I still found it by chance more than ten years ago, if I miss this coffin mushroom today, then Wen Qingshan's life ......" He said this, looked at me, and then changed his words: "But the life and death of that guy has nothing to do with me anyway, Brother Shi Yu, you still have to make up your mind about this matter!" ”

I pondered for a moment, pulled the dragon tooth out of my waist, and said coldly, "I have taken this coffin mushroom today!" If that one-horned earth dragon dares to come, I will let it taste the power of this real dragon tooth! ”

Ghost Eye Chen immediately said, "Okay! Then let's hurry up and get the coffin mushrooms out as much as possible! ”

"What if the one-horned earth dragon comes?" The cheap said worriedly.

Ghost Eye Chen glanced up and said, "It may not be a one-horned earth dragon, maybe it's just an ordinary mountain beast, and even if it's really a one-horned earth dragon, judging from the height where the shadow is now, it should still be half a mile away, and we still have time if we don't come here so soon." ”

Hearing what Ghost Eye Chen said, we didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly continued to dig the soil with our bare hands, because thinking that the one-horned earth dragon might be killed at any time, the movements of the three of them were obviously accelerated a lot, and after a while, the outline of the entire coffin lid was dug out by us.

This means that the coffin can now be opened, but we have encountered a new problem, because we are all standing directly above the coffin, and it is impossible to open the coffin lid.

Fortunately, Ghost Eye Chen had experience in this area, and he quickly came up with a solution, which was to fix one end of the coffin lid with a rope, and then we could stand outside the pit and pull the rope together, and pull it up together to pull the coffin lid open.

However, because the lid of the whole coffin is quite tightly closed between the coffin and the coffin body, it is not easy to fix the rope on the coffin lid, and it took us a long time to finally reluctantly fix the rope.

The three of them hurriedly climbed out of the pit, grabbed the other end of the rope, and pulled up together.

What we didn't expect was that the coffin lid made of golden silk nanmu was really not ordinarily heavy, coupled with the angle problem, we almost used our strength to feed, and we couldn't pull the coffin lid open.

I was in a hurry, but the cheap suddenly let go of his hand, he said: "It's not a way for us to pull like this, we have to use the principle of leverage!" ”

"How leverage works? What does it mean? Ghost Eye Chen asked blankly, the principle of leverage is a physical term, and he had never studied physics at that time, so naturally he couldn't understand it.

Cheap explained: "It's just to find a fulcrum, so that you can achieve twice the result with half the effort." When he said that, I immediately understood what he meant, and he did have an idea.

I looked around, and there was a big tree about half a meter in diameter about four or five meters away from the grave, although it was a little farther away, but our rope was long enough, and if we used the trunk of this big tree as a fulcrum, we might be able to pull the lid open.

We walked the rope around the trunk of the tree, used the trunk as a fulcrum, and pulled hard together, and finally the lid was pulled open.

Ghost Eye Chen immediately turned to me and said, "Brother Shi Yu, give me the black cloth I handed over to you just now, and I'll go get the coffin mushroom." ”

I didn't understand why I had to ask for a black cloth to get the coffin mushrooms, but I didn't ask too much, and immediately took the black cloth out of my backpack and handed it to Ghost Eye Chen.

Ghost Eye Chen took the black cloth, didn't say a word, jumped into the dirt pit, and jumped into the dirt pit. I and I were trying to go over to see how the coffin mushroom looked like and how it grew on the bridge of the dead man's nose, but we had just walked to the side of the pit, and before we could jump into the pit, there was another rapid cry of the shadow above our heads, and this time, the height of the shadow hovering was significantly lower than just now, almost flying against the tip of the tree, and the sound was even more urgent, which meant that the danger was very close to us.

I didn't dare to be careless, so I hurriedly pulled the dragon's tooth out of my waist and turned to look around, but I couldn't see anything clearly because it was pitch black in the bushes.

The cheap also looked very nervous, and since he didn't have any weapons with him, he had to hurriedly pick up a military shovel from the ground and hold it tightly in his hand.

After a few moments, Ghost Eye Chen climbed up from the dirt pit, and when he saw the two of us in this stance, coupled with the rapid cry of the shadow overhead, he immediately understood what was going on, and hurriedly handed me a mass of things wrapped in the black cloth, and said, "You put this coffin mushroom away first!" ”

I didn't bother to open it to see what this so-called coffin mushroom looked like, so I hurriedly put it in my backpack.

I had just unzipped my backpack when there was a sudden rustling sound from the bushes on our left, and everyone's nerves were tense, and when I heard the sound, I immediately turned my head to look, and although I still didn't see anything, I saw that the bushes were trembling slightly by the moonlight, and at the same time, I smelled a faint fishy smell like dead fish. It's really strange, there are no ponds around here, how can there be such a fishy smell.

Ghost Eye Chen's face changed slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "It's coming!" ”

Hearing him say this, I suddenly felt a chill down my spine, and my heart couldn't stop beating wildly.

In fact, I'm not saying how much I'm afraid of this so-called one-horned earth dragon, in my opinion, the one-horned earth dragon should be on the same level as the black water snake, the key is that it is now hidden in the dark, we can only smell its movement, but we can't see its trace, and I don't know where it will suddenly pounce out, this factor, greatly amplified the fear in my heart.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down a bit. I have the power of a dragon soul in my body, and I have insight beyond mortals, and if I concentrate, I can see something even in the dark, not to mention seeing normally. But I was so nervous that I couldn't concentrate at all.

At this moment, the cheap suddenly turned on the flashlight, I was stunned for a moment, and then I thought about it, now that the coffin mushrooms have arrived, and the ghost eye Chen is still wrapped in a dense black cloth, why should we avoid using the flashlight! So I hurriedly took out the flashlight.

Both of us were holding military flashlights, and the surroundings immediately became brighter, perhaps due to the sudden light that lit up, and the "rustling" sound came to an abrupt end. I can't help but wonder a little because snakes have poor eyesight and therefore slow to respond to light, and since this dragon is also a snake, it should not be so sensitive to light.

I hurriedly swept around with the help of a flashlight, but the vegetation was very lush a few meters away, so I still couldn't find out where it was hiding. And strangely, the shadow stopped calling, it stopped on a large tree, lowered its head, and seemed to be observing the movement around it.

We held our breath, not daring to let out the air, and for a moment, there was silence around us. I was wondering where the thing would hide, when suddenly there was a rustling sound from the grass next to me, and I quickly turned my head to look, only to see a fluffy gray shadow quickly burrowing out of the grass, and we were both startled, but on closer inspection, it turned out to be just a gray-brown rabbit.

The rabbit seemed frightened, and seemed to be a little frightened, and scurried around the graveyard, and soon disappeared into a bush of grass.
