Chapter 712: Rescue
The minions of the Ghost King of Bishan are really ruthless, and when he saw it, these people were planted with demon insects when they were alive, and the demon insects used their stomachs as hatching houses to absorb their flesh and blood.
So much so that their whole body is dried up, and there is only a layer of skin attached to the skeleton.
Before dying, he was in great pain, his teeth were clenched, and even his teeth were broken, and a pair of eyes glared out angrily, frightened, and he couldn't blink his eyes.
Obviously, these are ordinary people facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and they should have been caught in some village.
Inhuman!
At this moment, the movement of the demon worm rolling in the stomach is getting louder and louder, and the belly of the corpse is also bulging more and more, like a balloon that is about to burst at any time.
I immediately slit the middle finger of my left hand, forced the blood out of my finger, and fell into the pool of corpse water drop by drop.
As soon as the blood melted into the water, it dissolved.
Not long after, the demon worm inside suddenly tumbled violently, but instead of swelling outward, it shrank inward, and the sound became louder and louder. At the same time, wisps of demonic energy overflowed the pool and floated into the air.
Seeing this, I kept dripping the blood of my middle finger into the pool, trying to suppress the speed at which they broke the corpses, and it seemed to work well.
Time passed minute by minute, and the demon city was suppressed to a certain extent, and it seemed to be ineffective, and their bodies were still a little bit thicker.
I dripped for a while and finally gave up. These demon insects are different from ordinary monsters, and the yang blood doesn't seem to be too powerful against them, which is really a bit strange.
No wonder Daoist Hongguang and Aunt Hong were so nervous.
Soon, an hour passed, and the suppression of the yang blood prolonged the time it took for them to break out of their corpses. As a rough estimate, it should take another hour to break up the body.
I'm a little anxious in my heart, Aunt Hong has been cleaning the passage, but without tools, the speed must not be fast, I hope they can clear enough space to come out before the demon worm breaks the corpse, otherwise it will be dangerous.
Time passed little by little, and soon the corpse's abdomen was bulging again, almost the same as before, and suddenly there was a "poof", a black, slimy and wet worm, about the length of chopsticks, like an earthworm-like insect drilled out of the navel of a corpse, it raised its head, stood up like a snake, two small red holes on the tip moved, and then suddenly made an extremely sharp sound, piercing people's eardrums.
I couldn't help but feel a tingling in my head, and the screaming was so uncomfortable.
The next moment, the remaining demon insects burst out of the corpse one after another as if they had received an order, and immediately filled the entire pool like a group of snakes coming out of a hole.
Soon, they were pouring out of the pool of corpses and coming towards me.
I yelled at Aunt Hong and pulled out the dragon tooth heavy knife, but as soon as I thought of Aunt Hong's explanation, saying that this ghost thing was cut off, it would explode immediately, so I changed the short knife I carried with me.
They are not fast, like ant colonies, but they are quite numerous, densely packed into a dark curtain, and you can have dense phobia at a glance.
I immediately took a few steps back, put the flashlight in my mouth, flicked my wrist, and stabbed the short knife into the ground, cutting the first demon insect in two.
"Bang!"
The demon worm exploded like a large firecracker, and a stream of red and black venom splashed, sweeping around, covering a range of several feet.
I was so startled that I almost got caught in the venom cap, but even so, I felt a little burning, numb, and obviously a tiny particle formed by the venom sticking to it.
Thousands of alpacas rushed through me in my heart, and this thing was simply incomprehensible.
What surprised me the most was that the demon worm that was cut in two was really as Aunt Hong said, it didn't die at all, it rolled twice, and it actually became two demon worms, mixed in the pile of demon worms again, and came towards me.
Without saying a word, I turned and ran.
There is no solution to this thing, I'm afraid that only a ruthless character like Bai Xiangyue who slaps out and sweeps a large area can stop them.
Soon I ran back to Aunt Hong's side, and the group was faster than expected, and a passage of more than ten meters had been cleared, and half of it was blocked.
I jumped right in and said, "The demon worm is coming towards us." ”
Hongguang Taoist immediately decided: "Collapse the mine road and intercept the demon insects." ”
After saying that, the two Taoist priests walked up, shot out at the same time, and slammed their palms on the cave road, and the earth and stones fell down, and finally a large amount of earth and stone fell down with a "bang", cutting off the neat partition behind it, and even encroaching on nearly one-third of the space inside.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But I was still a little worried, although those magic insects didn't look very powerful, like earthworms, but I didn't know if they could burrow, so I asked, "Can the earth and rocks block them?" ”
"That thing has no eyes, only a sense of smell, and the earth and rocks block our smell, so they find it, and they are quite limited in their ability to come in, and they can deal with it." Aunt Hong explained to me.
I nodded, I see, the thing really didn't find eyes, only two small red holes, supposed nose.
"Okay, now we can only wait for rescue." Daoist Hongguang sat on the ground.
The others also sat down and adjusted their breathing to calm themselves as much as possible.
The space is enclosed, and the airflow is not enough, and it is impossible to support the physical labor of so many people, so you can only keep quiet, suppress the needs of your body, and use mana to support the column as much as possible. Fortunately, although a lot of earth and rocks fell on the landslide, some of the gaps were not completely blocked, otherwise the space of less than ten meters would have to be consumed by dividing the air by two.
I walked over to the white-faced young man, who lay down in a corner and fell asleep, and the minions of the Ghost King of the Mountains must have tormented him a lot, but they didn't kill him in order to lure us into the bait.
I just sat down and waited patiently, there was no other way at the moment.
Time passed minute by minute, and everyone took a long breath to try to save air consumption. After a long time, I was a little drowsy, my chest was stuffy, and it was very uncomfortable.
At that moment, there was a murmuring sound from the mound behind me, as if something was drilling from the outside into the inside.
Demon Bugs!
My heart skipped an instinctive beat.
Aunt Hong immediately opened her eyes, flipped through her hand, and a porcelain bottle appeared.
Soon the demon worm came in from outside the mound, but Aunt Hong's eyes were quick, and she put the porcelain bottle on the demon worm's body, and put the demon worm into the porcelain bottle as soon as she put it into the porcelain bottle, and there was no threat.
In this way, after a period of time, one or two demon insects would accidentally stumble in, but all of them were put into the glass or porcelain bottles that everyone carried, and the threat was lifted.
I don't know how long it has been, but it is estimated that it will take more than a day.
The white-faced youth's face is getting worse and worse, and the amount of air is no longer enough, I understand at this time that if the rescue does not come, all of us will be suffocated here, and the white-faced youth has not yet entered the Tao, and will bear the brunt of it.
After another long time, Daoist Hongguang suddenly opened his eyes and said, "It's dug in from outside." ”
When they heard this, they were overjoyed.
I didn't hear anything, but when I looked closely, I found that the ground was indeed trembling slightly, and the amplitude was very small.
And the movement is getting louder and louder.
It didn't take long for a drill bit as thick as a bowl mouth to drill through the thick pile of earth and rock.
"Cut it off!"
Daoist Hongguang hurriedly said.
I pulled out my knife and cut the drill bit in one fell swoop, and the drill pipe quickly stopped.
Aunt Hong immediately pasted it, took out the handle of a short knife, and struck it on the drill pipe.
I listened to it and understood, it was Morse code.
Soon, there was an echo from there, and at the same time a gust of wind blew in from the drill pipe, refreshing the dull air.
After hearing this, Aunt Hong smiled and said, "It's our alliance's people." ”
The last trace of anxiety of the crowd disappeared and waited patiently.
The oxygen level of the air was sufficient, and the white-faced young man gradually woke up, and his injuries were much better, and he slowly sat up.
"How?"
I asked with concern, in the past half a month, he must have been tortured by the minions of the Ghost King of the Mountain.
The white-faced young man shook his head and said, "Don't get in the way, just rest for a while." ”
"Then do you know when the people of the Ghost King of Pishan started to set traps?" At this time, Daoist Hongguang asked.
As soon as these words came out, except for Aunt Hong, everyone else swept my eyes intentionally or unintentionally.
I frowned slightly, he was looking for a way to leak information.
