Chapter 96: Sharp Divine Soldiers
A few of us walked to the sarcophagus lid, everyone bent down and grabbed the corner of the coffin lid, and lifted it up together, but the coffin lid was very heavy, and Wen Qingshan's and cheap hands were injured, it was not easy to lift it up, it took a long time, Zuihou or Wen Qingshan thought of the principle of using the lever, and finally lifted the coffin lid to the sarcophagus.
Everyone was too tired to do anything, and when the sarcophagus was resealed, they all sat down on the ground, gasping for air.
But before he could rest for a while, there was a sudden sound from the cave on the side, and everyone was startled, and then they remembered that there was an incomparably huge black water snake hidden in a certain cave next to it!
Everyone didn't dare to stay here anymore, they all stood up, Wen Qingshan said: "Those guys just now must have come in from the Flying Bat Rock, if we walk along the cave where they entered, maybe we will be able to get out!" ”
His words were not unreasonable, so the group walked towards the entrance of the cave where the guys had just entered.
According to Wen Qingshan's assumption, we should be able to find the exit soon, but what people didn't expect was that after nearly half an hour of going around the intricate karst cave, instead of finding the exit, we actually went back to the side of the underground lake.
Looking at the column of water rushing down not far away, as well as the swarm of bats hanging on the roof of the cave and black pressure, everyone was dumbfounded.
After being stunned for a long time, Wen Qingshan muttered: "How could it be that you came back again......"
Seabeard, who had a wound on his leg, was too tired to do so, so he found a stone and sat down, raised his wrist and looked at his watch, panting and said, "Let's rest first, don't wander around anymore!" Don't worry too much, there are so many bats in this cave, it won't be long before the bats will fly out to feed, and we should be able to find the exit as long as we follow the bat colony. ”
When it comes to adventure experience, Seabeard is the richest, and listening to him say this, everyone is a little relieved.
Fearing that a giant snake would come, I pulled out my sword and held it tightly in my hand.
Sometimes, however, the more you least want to face a situation, the more it will happen. I was praying that no serpent would spot us, when I suddenly noticed that not far from us, on the surface of the lake, a herringbone ripple was moving rapidly towards the shore where we were.
Although the ripples seem very subtle, I still feel nervous, because I have seen in "Animal Shijie", when the anaconda is preparing to ambush its prey, when it is diving in the water, there will be ripples like this! Could it be that there is a giant python swimming towards us right now?
I hurriedly pointed my hand and whispered, "Look there, is there something swimming towards us!?" ”
Wen Qingshan glanced at the humanoid ripples, his face changed, and said, "Everyone be careful!" As he spoke, he immediately pulled the Broken Dragon slash out of his waist.
The humanoid ripples disappeared as they approached the shore, and I took a closer look into the water, and I could vaguely see a huge black shadow lying quietly at the bottom of the water, and I was not mistaken, it was really a giant python! Although the size of this giant python is far less than the incomparably huge black water snake in the cave hall, it is not small, and if it attacks us, I am afraid it will be enough to kill us easily.
Everyone was extremely nervous, the python was only about a meter away from us, which can be said to be a very dangerous distance, but no one dared to leave rashly, for fear that doing so would alarm it, and it was also motionless, and I don't know why it swam over because it found us, or just passing by.
I was muttering to myself, when suddenly, the python jumped up from the water, and its body was like an arrow off the string, straight at us. said that it was too late, Wen Qingshan's hand fell with a knife, and with a flash of cold light, the huge head of the giant python was actually cut off by him with a knife.
I was immediately shocked, you know, the scale armor of the Black Water Snake is extremely hard, if it is an ordinary knife and axe, I am afraid it will not be easy to cut through its scale armor, but Wen Qingshan can cut off its head with a single knife, which shows that on the one hand, Wen Qingshan's knife is fast and powerful, and on the other hand, it also shows that the Broken Dragon Slash in his hand is indeed a divine weapon.
The giant python, which had lost its head, struggled violently in the water, making a splash, and the blood instantly stained the surrounding lake red.
Everyone was worried about being thrown by its body, so they hurriedly took a few steps back, and the headless python rolled and struggled in the water for three minutes before it gradually stopped, and the whole python surfaced, seven or eight meters long, and the diameter of the thickest part of the body reached thirty or forty centimeters.
Looking at the giant python's huge body, the frightened pale shuddered and asked, "Boss Wen, are you...... You're not saying that the python that lives in this cave doesn't have ...... eyes? Can't you see? It...... How could it come all the way to attack us? ”
Wen Qingshan slashed the broken dragon back into the scabbard and analyzed: "It must have smelled us!" ”
"Why didn't it smell when we came before?" I asked rhetorically.
Wen Qingshan glanced at me, seemed to understand immediately, smiled, and said, "Hehe, I'm afraid it's the smell of blood that comes from your body!" ”
The smell of blood!? As soon as I lowered my head, I remembered that when Wen Qingshan cut off Scarface's hand with a knife before, I happened to be standing next to me, and the blood almost sprayed me.
I hurriedly took off my clothes and pants and threw them into the lake. And took out another set of clothes from the backpack to change into.
At this moment, the swarm of bats hanging upside down on the roof of the cave all flew up, and Seabeard saw this, and immediately said, "The bats are coming out of the cave, let's follow quickly!" ”
Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and immediately followed the direction where the bats flew away.
After walking a few steps, there was a sudden sound of "bang" behind them, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that the body of the giant python had disappeared, and only a huge whirlpool of water was left on the water surface.
It seemed that there was something else under the water that dragged the body of the giant python down, and everyone looked at each other, not bothering to figure out what else was under the water, and quickly accelerated the pace of travel.
We were lucky enough to have no more wading sections along the way, and we weren't attacked by monsters like pythons. After walking in the direction of the bats flying for more than ten minutes, I finally saw a crack in the wall of the cave about ten meters high on the ground, which was connected with the outside world.
The bats flew out of this crack, and needless to say, this must be the entrance to the Flying Bat Rock, and everyone was excited.
But within a few minutes of excitement, we soon faced a new problem, that is, how do we get there?
The crevasse was more than a dozen meters above the ground, and it was flanked on either side by near-vertical cliffs, making it almost impossible to climb it.
We were worried, but Huang Yixian suddenly found a rope hanging down on the cliff on one side.
It was a brand-new rope for mountaineering, and it dawned on everyone that those guys must have come down from here, and they would naturally leave a rope to make it easier for them to climb up again.
Huang Yixian tugged the rope hard, it was very firm, so a few of us climbed up along the rope in turn.
By the time the group climbed out of the Flying Bat Rock, it was already very dark, and if it weren't for the miner's lamp hats on top of our heads, we wouldn't even be able to see the surroundings clearly.
With the help of the miner's lamp, we were surprised to find that we were now located on a cliff, about seven or eight meters above the ground, and if we were not careful, we could fall down. Such a steep terrain is really as described by Bai Xiaowu.
We lowered a rope from it and carefully descended it to the surface.
When they finally came out, it was as if they had returned to the world from hell, and the nerves that had been tense for everyone suddenly relaxed, and they all sat on the ground.
I looked up at the sky above my head, and then looked around, and suddenly I was slightly startled, this is a ravine with cliffs on both sides, this place, I seem to have been here before!
I got up with a grunt, looked around carefully, and suddenly remembered that this was the ravine where Master had an accident!
Touching the scene, my heart suddenly felt inexplicably uncomfortable, and Huang Yixian had also been here after the death of his master, he also saw it, and muttered: "How can it be this place......
Wen Qingshan saw that the two of us looked abnormal, and asked on the side, "What's the matter, haven't you two been here before?" ”
Huang Yixian's lips squirmed slightly, and he said slowly: "This is the place where my Senior Brother Mo, that is, Shi Yu's master, was killed!" ”
"Oh?" Wen Qingshan looked a little surprised, he looked around, and asked again, "What happened to him?" ”
Huang Yixian said: "At that time, a villager in the village died mysteriously, and there was a corpse fraud, so the second master of Qi invited my senior brother Mo to be a mage, after he came, he found that the corpse of the deceased was attached to the ghost, worried that the corpse would become stiff, so he proposed to cremate the corpse, but when he was preparing to cremate the corpse, something went wrong! ”
"What went wrong?"
Huang Yixian said: "At that time, except for my Senior Brother Mo, there was only one person present, and that was Ma Laoqi's nephew Bai Xiaowu, but unfortunately this kid was stupid at the time, and he couldn't say anything clearly, so no one knew what went wrong." The people in the village believe that it was the deceased who mutated into Mao Zhuang, and in order to deal with Mao Zhuang, my Senior Brother Mo died with him. But I don't think things are so simple, my Senior Brother Mo's Taoism is higher than mine, although Mao Zhuang is difficult to deal with, but the Mao Zhuang who has just mutated will not cause him to lose his life. ”
