Chapter 228: Hydra

After thinking about it for a while, I finally remembered that Professor Dong had mentioned the nine-headed insect to me before, and he told me that the nine-headed insect is a transnational cultural relics smuggling organization, and most of their cultural relics rely on the theft and excavation of ancient tombs.

I didn't expect Ouyang Yi to mention the nine-headed insect, and I couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is the origin of this nine-headed insect?" ”

Ouyang Yi glanced at me and said, "According to our investigation, the Nine-Headed Worm is an extremely important side branch of the Black Demon Sect, specializing in tomb robbing, the Nine-Headed Worm relies on the sale of stolen cultural relics to make a lot of money, and most of the funds for the activities of the Black Demon Sect come from the Nine-Headed Worm, in a sense, as long as the Nine-Headed Worm is eliminated, it is equivalent to cutting off the source of funds for the Black Evil Sect and giving it a fatal blow!" So we've been tracking them down all these years, but we've never been able to eradicate them completely. ”

"Then how did the nine-headed insect know about the existence of this evil stone tomb?"

Ouyang Yi said: "The nine-headed insects have a very sensitive sense of smell for cultural relics, and they can simply rely on Feng Shui to determine the exact location of the tomb. Presumably, they received the news that there were zombies here, and thought that there might be a large tomb in this area, so they came to investigate, and thus found this evil stone tomb. ”

After listening to what Ouyang Yi said, I suddenly thought of the evil stone that sealed the soul of the demon god, and I couldn't help but feel a stir in my brain, slapped my thigh, and said, "The nine-headed worm shouldn't have already taken that evil stone away!?" ”

Ouyang Yi said with a solemn expression: "Very likely! ”

Wen Qingshan waved his hand: "I don't think so." ”

Ouyang Yi was slightly stunned: "Oh? What is Mr. Wen's view? ”

Wen Qingshan replied: "A few days ago, Shi Yu and Brother Long came here to investigate, and on the way back, they were attacked by people from the cult. Think about it, if the people in the cult have really succeeded, why should they take such a big risk to expose themselves? ”

After listening to Wen Qingshan's analysis, Ouyang Yi frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly waved his hand and said, "Go!" Let's go in and have a look! ”

Under the leadership of Ouyang Yi, the group continued to move forward.

Along the way, almost all the stone doors of the tombs have been forcibly destroyed, and each tomb is a mess, when passing through one of the tombs, we even saw the corpses of more than a dozen mandrills, Wen Qingshan examined the corpses of those mandrills, and found that there were no obvious external injuries on the bodies of these mandrills, but without exception, their skulls were shattered.

Wen Qingshan frowned tightly and said, "These mandrills should all be killed by heavy blows to the head, it seems that there must be a master with extremely strong internal strength among them." ”

"You don't mean that these mandrills were killed by fists, do you?" Long Yi couldn't believe it.

Wen Qingshan said: "It should be like this, if he doesn't use any tools, but only a pair of fists, then this person's kung fu is probably far above us." ”

"Nine-headed insects are not idle, otherwise they wouldn't be so difficult to catch!" Ouyang Yi said, waving his hand: "Go!" Let's go inside! ”

The group continued to go deeper, because they didn't encounter any traps, everyone traveled a lot faster, and after a while, they came to the second layer of the mausoleum, according to the previous detection, this layer of the tomb is built according to the pattern of four elephants, there is a total of worlds, and the size is about the same as the outer tomb.

It stands to reason that the traps in the inner tomb should be even more powerful, so Ouyang Yi originally hoped that the nine-headed insect failed to break into the inner tomb, however, the situation in the inner tomb was the same as the outside, and it was also destroyed by Yan Zòng.

Judging from this situation, I am afraid that the innermost tomb is not optimistic, and I don't even have hope in my heart, I have seen the power of the nine-headed insect, Shao Yuanjie's Ganzhi Divine Tomb is heavy, and it has also been cleaned by them, and now this evil stone tomb is afraid that it will not escape the doom.

As we got closer and closer to the center of the mausoleum, Ouyang Yi's expression became more and more solemn, his face was pale, but he didn't say a word, and finally, we came to the corridor leading to the innermost tomb.

According to previous detections, the innermost layer is a circular burial chamber, built according to the pattern of Taiji Liangyi, with an S-shaped dividing line in the middle to divide the burial chamber into two halves, so strictly speaking, it should be regarded as two burial chambers.

Standing in front of the corridor leading to the innermost tomb, looking at the stone door that had been destroyed, everyone's hearts suddenly cooled, obviously, the nine-headed insect has entered the innermost tomb, and according to our speculation, the evil stone that sealed the soul of the demon god is hidden in the innermost tomb, which means that the evil stone is very likely to have fallen into the hands of the nine-headed insect.

I peeked at Ouyang Yi, and saw that his brows were tightly locked, his expression was solemn, as if he was thinking about something, and Long Yi, who was standing beside him, also had a stern face.

In order to lighten the atmosphere, I coughed lightly twice and said, "This is not to the bottom after all!" Let's go in and take a look! Maybe it's really like what Boss Wen said, the people in the cult have not been able to take away the evil stones. ”

Long Yi smiled bitterly: "This is the last burial chamber of the entire mausoleum, the door of the tomb has been damaged, since the people in the cult have entered, how can they not take the evil stone away!" ”

"Maybe they're getting in the way!"

The people in the cult are determined to win this evil stone, and they have all come to this point, what else can stop them! Long Yi said, and let out a long sigh.

At this moment, there was a deafening roar, all too familiar, the roar of a mandrill!

Everyone was taken aback, Wen Qingshan was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, turned his head and said to everyone: "Something is not right!" ”

"What's wrong?" Ouyang Yi asked.

Wen Qingshan said: "If the people in the cult have already entered the innermost tomb and taken away the evil stones, how can there be mandrills inside? The mandrill is extremely aggressive, and unless it is killed, I am afraid that it will not watch the cult members take the evil stone anyway. ”

"Could it be that the people in the cult were killed by mandrills after entering it?" Weizi said on the side.

Wen Qingshan shook his head and said, "It's unlikely!" There were more than a dozen mandrill corpses in the tomb just now, all of which were killed by forceful crushing of their skulls, which shows that mandrills can't stop the cult people at all! In my opinion, they must have encountered some other unexpected situation inside. ”

"Could it be that the Drought Fish stopped them!?" I suddenly thought of Chen Zhonghao, from the time we entered the mausoleum to the present, there was no trace of Chen Zhonghao, thinking about it, I am afraid that only this possibility is the greatest.

Wen Qingshan agreed with my idea, saying, "It is very possible! The drought demon claimed to be the guardian of this evil stone tomb, and it was impossible for the cult to break into this place without stepping forward to stop it. ”

After hearing what the two of us said, Long Yi was slightly stunned and said, "You mean to say that the drought is in here?" ”

"If it's not in there, where is it hidden?" Wen Qingshan asked rhetorically.

Long Yi turned his head to look at Ouyang Yi and asked, "Dr. Ouyang, do we want to go in and have a look?" ”

"Now that you're here, of course you have to go in and have a look, go!" After Ouyang Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand, grasped the metal cane, and walked along the corridor to the innermost tomb.

The corridor connecting the inner chamber was only seven or eight meters long, and the group soon reached the end, where a semicircular hall appeared in front of us.

Judging from the pattern of this hall, it is just half of the Tai Chi pattern, and in front of it, there is an S-shaped wall, and in the center of this wall, there is an arched stone door, and in front of this arched stone door, there are actually three people lying down!

The three guys, dressed in modern clothes and carrying backpacks on their backs, lay motionless on the ground.

Seeing this, everyone was taken aback, needless to say, these three guys were most likely the people of the nine-headed worm, and they didn't expect to lie here! Weizi immediately pointed his gun at the three guys lying on the ground, and shouted, "Get up! ”

But the three guys didn't react.

Ouyang Yi pressed down the muzzle of Weizi's gun and said, "No need to shout, these three guys should have been dead for many days." ”

After he finished speaking, he slowly stepped forward and turned over the body of one of them, and sure enough, this guy's eyes were closed, and his skin was purple, although it had not yet decayed, but at a glance, he knew that it was a dead corpse! Corpses are supposed to smell of decay, but we all wear oxygen masks, so we can't smell them.

Ouyang Yi turned his head to Long Yi and said, "You check it and see when he died!" ”

The dragon nodded, immediately took out a pair of rubber gloves and put them on, then squatted down and examined them carefully, he first gently pressed the skin of the corpse with his fingers, and then took out a uniquely shaped instrument, this instrument was in the shape of a droplet, with an LCD screen on it, and a needle at the thin end.

Long Yi inserted the needle into the neck of the corpse, and a set of numbers was immediately displayed on the LCD screen, and the group of numbers changed rapidly, and it took two or three minutes before the numbers stopped beating, and Long Yi picked up the instrument and looked at it, his face showed a look of surprise.

Ouyang Yi immediately asked, "How is it?" ”

Long Yi raised his head and replied, "This instrument seems to be broken." ”

"The instrument is broken? Show me! ”

"Something is wrong!" Long Yi said and handed the instrument to Ouyang Yi.

I asked curiously, "Brother Long, what kind of instrument are you?" ”
