Wu Xixin said a bad word, and shouted at the people behind him: "Da Zhao has mutated!" Run, get out of here! ”

At the critical moment, Lao Sun was the fastest, and immediately pushed a few stunned young guys to turn around and leave.

Wu Xie and the fat man also ran back, but suddenly the ground under their feet tilted instantly, and a flip board appeared, and the two of them fell straight down before they had time to react.

Because of so many years of tempering, Wu Xie was suddenly in danger, but he was not panicked in his heart. The moment his toes touched the ground, he leaned forward, his body clumped, and rolled on the ground a few times, unloading the force of the fall.

There were no spikes and crossbows below, and Wu Xie secretly screamed a fluke. He tried to get up, but hit something on his head.

Wu Xie shone the flashlight over, and suddenly saw Da Zhao's miserable white and weird smiling face in front of him, and the pitch-black eyes without the whites of his eyes looked straight at him.

Wu Xie was taken aback, staggered back, accidentally tripped over something, and fell backwards on his back on top of a soft mass.

I only heard the "oops" of the mass of things, followed by a series of miserable screams from the fat man.

"Innocent, get up. Fat man, I didn't fall to death, but I was about to be crushed to death by you. And your black gold ancient knife, I'm about to vomit blood! ”

Wu Xie hurriedly went to help people, and the fat man stood up with a humming chirp.

Wu Xie saw that the person was fine, and immediately turned around to check the ghost just now, but the location was already empty.

The fat man picked up the flashlight that had been extinguished, knocked it a few times, and fortunately it turned on again.

The two of them probed the surroundings and found that the flap above their heads was closed again, the stone slab was so thick that the voices on it were no longer audible at all. The current space is a stone room of more than 40 square meters, like a square box, and the dark red walls are carved with dense and complex patterns.

The fat man's flashlight stopped in one place and said, "Look at this!" ”

Wu Xie looked over and saw that there was still a humanoid skeleton in the corner of the secret room, on which some broken clothes remained.

The fat man squatted down to check and said, "It's an old corpse." Judging by the weathering of the iron armor on his body, this man has been dead for at least a thousand years. ”

Wu Xie said: "I'm afraid this is the disappeared Mongolian cavalry." ”

This Raiders of the Lost Ark, more than a thousand years ago, had been sleeping under their feet all along.

Wu Xie used a flashlight to check the circle of the secret room, and finally sighed: "It's gone again." ”

The fat man said, "What disappeared?" ”

Wu Xie frowned and said, "That thing that Da Zhao has become has just followed us down. ”

Hearing this, the fat man also carefully inspected all corners of the entire stone room, but also found nothing.

"In retrospect, that thing seems to be conscious," said the fat man, "and it seems to have deliberately lured us into the trap." ”

Wu Xie said: "According to the general saying, zombies are unconscious, they are just attracted by bioelectricity and pounce on people mechanically. The evil spirit, on the other hand, is a pure consciousness detached from the physical body, capable of creating illusions, but without a substance in itself. Beings like this, who are physical and conscious, who can be touched and disappear at will, are probably not anything we have come across before. ”

The fat man said: "Whatever it is, its purpose is already obvious, it is to lead us to total annihilation here. ”

Wu Xie looked up at the stone top above his head and said, "I wonder if other people will be in danger?" ”

The fat man knew that Wu Xie was trapped by himself, but he still couldn't rest assured of his buddy, and said: "With Lao Sun taking care of him, and with our lessons from the past, that thing shouldn't be able to confuse them." ”

That being said, the thought of having a Taoist priest Chen outside who was difficult to distinguish between friend and foe was still worrying.

The fat man sighed and said, "Be naïve, don't be so sentimental." Instead of worrying about them here, let's hurry up and find a way out. ”

Wu Xie hooked the corners of the fat man's mouth, smiled, and cheered up to study the stone room with the fat man.

Except for the abstract patterns carved on the four walls of this stone room, there is no trace of a mechanism after some exploration. There is a narrow gap at the top of the stone chamber that seems to be connected to other spaces, so you don't have to worry about running out of air for the time being.

In order not to leave a dead end, they began to move the skeleton on the ground again.

Behind the dry bones, there is not much valuable information.

But at this moment, the fat man suddenly found that there was a stone lamp trough on the wall next to the skeleton.

There was a layer of black substance in the light trough, and the fat man used a lighter to light it slowly.

After observing for a while, the color of the flame burning is still relatively normal. So the two turned off their flashlights and decided to fix them before continuing to look for a way out.

The fat man opened a bag of sauced beef and chewed it with relish, and said: "Speaking of which, I haven't fought for several years, and this taste is really nostalgic." ”

Wu Xie lit a cigarette and sat on the ground looking at the top of the stone chamber in contemplation.

remembered that when I met the fat man, I was still a rookie in my twenties, with poor skills and curiosity, but I had a strong sense of justice, and I didn't cause trouble to the fat man and the little brother. Twelve or thirteen years have passed in a blink of an eye, and he is already in his thirties, and the fat man is in his early forties. Originally, Wu Xie had always felt that he and the people around him had not changed, but now looking at the fat man's hair that had become a little thinning, he realized that those days of youth and frivolity were gone forever.

Since the clouds are gone, the fat man has lived a life of seclusion to the countryside. At first, Wu Xie thought that the fat man was just depressed for a while. It wasn't until not long ago that Wu Xie gradually realized that the fat man had really looked down on everything and let go at that time. It was because he figured it out that he chose to live the life of an ordinary person.

Originally, the fat man had withdrawn from this circle, but this time he was in danger because he couldn't let go of his brother. If he can get away with it this time, Wu Xie is determined that he can't drag this good brother down anymore. Everyone has their own life, and he has no right to let anyone, including his own group of buddies, give up his original life, or even his life, for his own attachment!

Maybe it was because the air in the stone room was a little stuffy, and Wu Xie felt a little drowsy. And the fat man, who was well fed and drunk, took a nap against the wall. Having the intention of letting the fat man rest more, Wu Xie patted his face to refresh himself, and concentrated on studying this stone room.

At first glance, the walls seem vain, but when you look closely, you can see strange things everywhere.

The first is the vents and light troughs. If the purpose of this mechanism is to kill the invaders, then these two things are undoubtedly added to the snake here.

Next was the dead Mongol soldier. From where he was, he had apparently lit the lamp trough on the wall, but then turned it off for some reason, so there was still fuel left in the trough to this day.

And then there is the cause of the soldier's death. Did he starve to death, or did he have another mechanism in this stone chamber that hasn't been activated yet?

Wu Xie decided to start by figuring out the cause of the Mongol soldier's death.

He first inspected the skeleton and found that there were no obvious injuries such as broken bones on it. He walked over to the location where the skeleton had been first found, sat down with his back against the wall, and tried to re-examine his surroundings from the perspective of the Mongol soldier.

On the opposite side is still the dark red stone wall that can be seen everywhere in the underground palace, and like the middle of the Yongdao, it is also carved with intricate line patterns.

These lines are neither like words nor pictures, and there is no pattern to speak of. It appears again and again in the dungeon, could it be that the builders want to convey some subtle message through it?

Wu Xie carefully identified it, and gradually found that the patterns on the stone wall had undergone some changes, and these lines seemed to be countless layers of limbs intertwined, struggling and twisting, as if they were about to break free from the confinement of the stone wall.

As if sensing Wu Xie's gaze, the limbs in the wall seemed to slowly come to life and began to stretch in the direction of Wu Xie. There was no skin on these dark red limbs, and for a while, Wu Xie's entire vision was filled with densely wriggling bloody limbs.

Wu Xie realized that he was hallucinating, but he couldn't close his eyes or look away, instead he involuntarily walked towards the front. As Wu Xie approached, those limbs became extremely excited, and at the same time, dozens of bloody hands grabbed Wu Xie and dragged them deep into the wall.

Seeing that he was about to be dragged into the interior of the stone wall, Wu Xie was anxious, but he couldn't make any sound. It turns out that the murals here belong to hallucinogenic mechanisms. And that Mongolian soldier was probably scared to death.

It is not alarmist for people to be frightened to death by hallucinations. Modern scientific research has shown that people's self-psychological suggestion is a very powerful inner force. Positive psychological cues can stimulate the body's supernormal abilities, while negative psychological cues can lead to the weakening or even failure of human organ function. The illusion of death, which is too powerful and realistic, causes the human brain to give instructions to the body that it is dead, resulting in brain death.

Wu Xie felt that he was completely dragged into the wall, and his surroundings were filled with dark red limbs crowded one after another, and even breathing became more and more difficult. Wu Xie knew that if he continued like this, he would sooner or later suffocate to death in hallucinations. The only one who can stop the situation from deteriorating is the fat man, but he can't make a sound, I wonder if the fat man can detect his abnormality in time?

Just when Wu Xie felt that he was sinking deeper and deeper and was on the verge of suffocation, the bloody hand covering in front of him seemed to be attracted by something and squirmed in one direction. Wu Xie saw that in the deepest part of the wall, there was a large mass of things that were densely wrapped in heavy limbs, as if they were about to break out of the cocoon, and they struggled violently.

Just when Wu Xie thought that something more powerful was about to appear, the bloody limb was shaken open by a force from within. A white shadow appears in the center of the limb.
