All Chapters_Chapter 144: A Critical Moment

Knock knock!

The sound of percussion came from the coffin again, and the low and heavy sound seemed so abrupt and terrifying in the silent cavern. The thud of each voice was like a hammer pounding on my heart.

Oh my God!

It shouldn't have been said by Mu Yueting, the things in this coffin have really undergone a corpse transformation, but didn't the chief general of the Yin Soldiers say that what Zhang Xianzhong buried in the dragon's den was a pile of white bones dug up from the ancestral grave? Could it be that even a pile of bones can be made into essence, or that the contents of this coffin are different?

Boom!

Just as I squinted and thought, there was a huge impact sound in the golden silk nanmu coffin again, and then I saw that the coffin actually began to shake violently, and there seemed to be something inside that wanted to break out of the coffin, and the dragon vein phantom trapped by the eight chains in mid-air also let out a terrible roar, and the dragon qi on his body suddenly gathered in large quantities and poured into the coffin under him.

I was so frightened that my legs were weak, and I didn't bother to look any further, so I turned around and ran wildly outside the main hall. I'm not stupid, the things in this coffin are obviously not good, plus he has absorbed more than three hundred years of dragon energy, his strength will definitely not be weak, if he breaks out of the coffin and catches me, I'm afraid it will be a very troublesome thing. I have a faint thought in my heart, I'm afraid that this dragon vein is inseparable from the things in this coffin.

I had already fully recovered from my physical injuries, and my feet were moving, and I quickly rushed out of the dragon's lair and into the gloomy and wide hall. The countless bronze pillars of fire arranged in two rows around emitted a faint blue cold light, and I seemed to be able to hear the painful and vicious voices echoing in these burning cyan flames as I ran, and the serpentine phantoms appeared in the flames, looking very terrifying.

After a few minutes, I walked through the main hall and returned to the place where I had broken through the stone door, and I hesitated a little when I saw what I saw. There was a dark hole in the wall to my left, and under the hole was a debris of debris from the same place I had just come out of the tunnel. The cave was pitch black, and there were no fingers to be seen, like a beast lurking there, and the bones of a body that would be eaten by it if it were not careful were gone. In front of the main hall is a wide avenue, although this road is also pitch black, but the marble slabs paved on the ground indicate that this is the right way to enter and exit the dragon's lair.

I took a long breath and thought to myself that the tunnel on the left was rugged and complicated, and there were traces of rubble collapse in many places. You must know that in ancient China, when many emperors built mausoleums or important secret buildings, they would either bury the craftsmen who built these buildings alive or directly kill them in after completion, so as to prevent the information of the mausoleum buildings from being transmitted by these craftsmen to attract small peeping. And if this kind of thing is done too much, many craftsmen will naturally be prepared, and they will dig a secret escape route for themselves when they are building, in order to finally escape.

I glanced at the dark entrance of the cave, this is probably the life gate left by those craftsmen when Zhang Xianzhong built this dragon's lair, and the humanoid creatures in the tunnel should also be the corpses of those craftsmen who did not escape, they were resurrected in a strange way under the mutation of dragon qi, and they happened to attack me.

Of course, this is just my speculation, and I can't be 100% sure whether it's true or not.

I walked towards the main road covered with marble while guarding the surroundings, if I guessed correctly, this is the main gate of the dragon's lair, and it is a place for the Yin Soldier Lord to enter and exit these guards, and there should be no danger along the way.

The boundless darkness and silence swallowed my perception, and I walked cautiously on the marble path, step by step, beware of unknown dangers that might exist. I had been walking in the darkness for about a quarter of an hour when suddenly there was a sound of fighting in front of me, mixed with the cries of women in the dull sound of crashing.

This is Mu Yueting's voice!

My face changed dramatically, and in this case, she must be in danger. I stiffened my head and rushed forward by feeling, while opening my mouth to shout Mu Yueting's name, trying to get her attention.

Soon, as the sound of the fight became clearer and clearer, I saw a light in front of me, not loud but like a guiding light in the boundless darkness. I was overjoyed, and ran away with all my strength towards the fire.

When I was a hundred meters away from the firelight, I saw that Mu Yueting's face was a little pale at this moment, the bun tied on her head was scattered because of the violent movements, and drops of cold sweat slipped down her forehead, looking very bad. She was now holding a burning torch in one hand and a whisk in the other, walking and retreating, constantly driving away the monsters that approached her.

Under the light of the fire, I saw that opposite Mu Yueting were rotten and foul-smelling humanoid creatures, their bodies were constantly dripping with turbid corpse water, some of them even had mutilated limbs, and half of the flesh on their faces had fallen off, but they were still staring at a pair of dead fish and rushing towards Mu Yueting one after another.

"Senior sister, hurry up!"

I ran towards Mu Yueting and shouted loudly for her to come closer to me. She heard my cry and turned her head to see me, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face, but there was a deep exhaustion hidden under this smile.

"Roar!"

Just as Mu Yueting looked at me, a ragged rotting corpse broke through the barrier of the dust, rushed directly in front of Mu Yueting, and a mouth full of thick water and corpse smell bit towards Mu Yueting's neck!

"Be careful!"

I let out a frightened scream, and I was about to crack when I saw this scene, and I kicked my feet on the ground violently, rushing in the direction of Mu Yueting. At this moment, in my eyes, there is only the safety of the person in front of me.

Bang!

At this critical moment, Mu Yueting turned around abruptly, and with a flick of the dust in her hand, she rolled up the head of the rotting corpse and slammed it to the ground.

The danger was lifted, and I was relieved, but at this moment, a carrion corpse that had been hit on the ground by Mu Yueting before actually took advantage of the chaos to directly hug Mu Yueting's left foot, and Mu Yueting was resisting the continuous flow of carrion corpses, and she didn't notice the situation under her feet at all, and when she felt a pair of hands full of thick water grab her feet, it was too late.

The rotting corpse bit down, and suddenly a trace of red blood soaked Mu Yueting's trouser legs, she screamed in pain, gritted her teeth and knocked away a rotting corpse that rushed towards her, and she couldn't take care of the rotting corpse on the ground in a short period of time.

This scene was seen in my eyes, and I suddenly hated it, and when I saw Mu Yueting's appearance, I felt a burst of pity in my heart. I ran as hard as I could, and I jumped over a distance of tens of meters in a matter of seconds.

An angry flame rose in my heart, and I kicked the head of the rotting corpse on the ground, with a crisp sound, his entire brain was kicked up by me, and the thick and smelly corpse water splashed in mid-air, spilling my body, but at this moment I didn't care, and rushed directly into the group of rotting corpses, as if crazy, dancing with both fists, and beating the roaring rotting corpse sideways.

"Senior brother, let's go!"

Mu Yueting called behind me, a tired voice sounded in my ears, my mind suddenly cleared up a lot, I saw with red eyes that there were countless moving heads behind these rotting corpses, which looked eerie and terrifying in the firelight, and I don't know how many such monsters there are, and the hearts of people who look at it are furious.

I gritted my teeth, kicked away a few approaching rotting corpses, turned around and pulled Mu Yueting to run back, at this moment behind us are countless roaring and chasing rotting corpses, the strong smell of corpses continues to waft throughout the tunnel, making people want to vomit.

Because of the panic in the fight, the torch in Mu Yueting's hand also fell to the ground, and was trampled on by the group of rotting corpses chasing behind her. I stubbornly relied on the memory just now to pull Mu Yueting and ran in the direction of the main hall.

But as we continued to run wildly, I felt that the little hand I was holding in my hand was getting softer and weaker. I stopped and said to the figure behind me in a panic, "Senior sister, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare me! ”

"Dizzy......" a somewhat weak voice came from behind me.

I was anxious, and when I stopped, the carrion behind me caught up again, listening to the roar of the approaching carrion. My heart was crossed, and I directly stretched out my hands to stop my waist and picked up Mu Yueting, and galloped towards the direction of the hall in the dark.

Finally, after I don't know how long I ran, I rushed out of the dark tunnel with Mu Yueting in my arms, and entered the hall burning with cyan flames again.

I looked at the person in my arms through this constantly flickering light, and at this moment, my whole heart rose to my throat, and a trace of hesitation and panic welled up in my heart. The beautiful cheeks of the person in his arms were as white as a transparent piece of paper, and cold sweat was constantly dripping on his smooth forehead, and the sound of breathing between his noses was getting weaker and weaker.

Why!

What's going on!

I yelled frantically, and heard another roar from the hole behind me, and a thought crossed my mind for a moment. I panicked and pulled up Mu Yueting's blood-soaked trousers, and saw that her originally white and smooth calves had turned into a strange blue purple, and this bruise and purple was still spreading along her calves.

Ptomaine!

Mu Yueting was bitten by the carrion corpse just now, and her calf was actually poisoned by the corpse!

I was confused, if it was in the outside world, this corpse poison would only need to be expelled with some herbs or runic water, which was not a big deal, but now Mu Yueting and I were deep in the underground dragon's lair, and the passage to escape to the outside world was blocked by countless rotting corpses, and it was difficult to escape for a while, if it dragged on like this, Mu Yueting would definitely be in danger of her life!

"Roar!"

After some delay, the rotting corpses in the passage finally caught up, their rotting and stinking cheeks looking even more hideous and terrifying under the cyan light, and there was no trace of emotion in their cloudy eyes.

I glanced at these monsters with resentment, gritted my teeth and rushed to the depths of the hall with Mu Yueting in my arms. Now I have no choice, although there is still a tunnel on the left for me to choose, but there are too many variables in it, maybe there are still remnants of the carrion corpses, and when the time comes, it doesn't matter if I am caught between the two phases, I don't care alone, but if they let them hurt Mu Yueting, it will really be beyond remorse, so I can only hope that I can only hope to escape into the palace gate where the dragon vein is located first, and then close the door I opened to block these carrion corpses, as for the rest of the matter, then I can't take care of it!

My feet kept moving, I felt the wind whistling past my ears, and I yelled in my heart to hurry up, hurry up!

Finally, before the group of rotting corpses behind me caught up with me, I rushed into the vermilion palace gate with Mu Yueting in my arms. At this moment, the situation was urgent, I rushed in and put Mu Yueting on the ground, and I didn't care about looking at the surrounding environment anymore, so I quickly turned around and closed the two gates hard.

"Boom!"

Watching the two doors in front of me close and close, the heart that I had been hanging on was temporarily relaxed. I wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead and turned to walk towards Mu Yueting. But at this moment, I froze, and an unprecedented sense of fear crept through my body.

In front of me, under the shadow of the constantly wailing dragon, the original golden silk nanmu coffin has been shattered into pieces of broken wood, and on these countless sawdust, a figure is standing at this moment......
