Chapter 166: The Road to Survival 1
But the thing was sucking so tightly, and I could feel the remnants of its mouthparts stabbing at my head - if I had knocked out the deadliest tip in time, it would have been stabbed into my skull by now. At this time, if anyone were to watch from the shore, he would see that I was rolling in the water with the terrible king in my arms, like a gourd scoop.
I don't know how long it took, I started to rush in, and out of nowhere, a force burst out, I tore it so hard that I tore the suction cup in half!
The thing let out a howl of pain and threw me with the remaining half of the sucker, and I was thrown out of the water and flew to the shore like a big stupid dog. My eyes caught a glimpse of a hard stone wall on the shore, and at this moment I was simply unable to help myself, and the speed was about the same as that of a flying bullet, and I was about to crash into the stone wall!
My mind went blank, and I thought to myself that I couldn't escape the word "death" today anyway. I closed my eyes and waited for the moment of collision......
But to my surprise, I only felt a cold tubular object wrap around my waist, and then I was quickly dragged off the ground under my head and feet, and rose high into the air, avoiding the bad luck of being hit.
But I wasn't glad that I had survived. Because I could see clearly what was wrapping around my waist and lifting me into the air. It was the "long-tongued monster" I'd dealt with before—a perverted "killer flower" thing, like a huge lump of cow dung clinging to the rock at the top of the cave, with an ugly mouth bigger than a basin and full of barbed fangs. At the same time, there is a long blood-red tongue that is several meters or even tens of meters long sticks out of its mouth and hangs all the way to the ground, as long as people and animals pass near its tongue, it will be rolled up by it at lightning speed, and then lifted into the air, until it is sent into its mouth and eaten mercilessly!
Its tongue is not thick, on the contrary, it is very slender, but it is very powerful, not to mention people, even if it is a cow, it is also struggling to get rid of it!
I cried out in my heart: "Why do you remember it like this today? Either die like this or die like that? It seems that I really can't escape the word 'death'......"
Just when I was feeling disheartened, my hand touched the scimitar at my waist that was used to cut rubber, and I immediately pulled the knife out - it only wrapped around my waist, and my hand was empty!
I adjusted my posture, grabbed its tongue with my left hand, and waved the knife with my right hand, and the cold light flashed, and the tongue was immediately cut in half! At this time, I was only two or three meters away from its mouth!
But as soon as I swung the knife, I regretted it again.
Because I simply forgot that I was hoisted more than ten meters into the air. At this moment, my tongue was cut, the pull on my body disappeared, and I was immediately attracted by gravity, and I fell to the ground quickly! My mind was numb at the moment, and I had no concept of life and death at all, but I was thinking about one thing: Do I still have the good fortune that I can't die? Or will I really say goodbye to this world this time?
"Poof!" I fell from the air to the ground, in fact, because of the moment of lightning, the moment I touched the ground, my ears really heard the sound of my body "kissing" the ground, but it was not the sound of breaking my body or breaking bones, but a sound like falling into a marshmallow or a sponge. I immediately felt like I was surrounded by a myriad of foams, not marshmallows or sponges, but a huge fibrous structure formed by countless soap bubbles coming together, which was not brittle, but very elastic and tough. It cushioned my fall so much that I was able to avoid being thrown into a toad.
The foam seemed to be several meters thick, and it was not only very sticky, but also had an unpleasant fishy smell. I was trapped in it like I was entangled in a cobweb.
I saved my life, but it was disgusting to be in it, so I struggled desperately to escape from the pile. But the more I struggled, the more I sank until my feet hit the hard ground.
But I soon found out that I wasn't really stepping on hard surfaces. Because by the yellowish light of the honeycomb-like objects around me, I saw that it was a pile of human bones! not just one person, but several human bones overlapping each other. Or rather, several skeletons overlapping each other. I'm stepping on those people's bones right now.
How could there be so many human bones here, and how did these people die?
But it soon dawned on me. Because in such an environment, it is normal for people to die here. Didn't I almost die a few times?
My head was still exposed to the floc, so I could still breathe fresh air and not suffocate to death in the floc. But I'm not much better off right now. I found it really hard to get out of the flocculents. It's like I'm stuck in a pile of glue!
Just as I was racking my brains to get out of this pile of flocculents, I suddenly noticed the bones under my feet move. At first, I thought it was my foot slipping, or stepping on these bones. But I soon noticed something unusual.
I saw that one of these skeletons was writhing desperately, as if it had suddenly been injected with life!
I was stunned, I didn't expect this to happen! These skeletons must have been awakened by some mysterious power, and they had something in their minds that could manipulate their bodies and make them move. Under the manipulation of this factor, its power can be much stronger than that of people.
But now it was stuck to its hands and feet by the same stickers, and it moved very slowly, unable to struggle for a while, and pounced on me, strangling or eating me. But its strength is obviously much greater than mine, and it must have struggled out much faster than I did!
At this moment, I had no choice but to pray to God for my blessing! At the same time, I did not give up on saving myself. I've got to get out of here before this guy bites me!
I can only find a way to escape now, and I can't resist or even counter the other party. Because I don't have any weapons now. My gun fell to the bottom of the water, and my knife fell somewhere.
But the flocculent pile was sticky! I was still squirming and struggling, and the skeleton was already coming up to me!
At that moment, the cave suddenly became bright, as if a fire had been burning somewhere!
I turned my head to look, and I almost didn't get my soul out!
This monster was more than three meters tall, moving with a pair of thick and powerful hind legs, two huge forelimbs lying in front of it like a boxer, and its head was like a huge bucket, not to say like a huge pupa pupae, but this pupa was thicker than a bucket!
This is the real king of terror!
It spewed flames as it walked, and the honeycombs and other floc were burning—I had seen that there was a lot more in the cave than mine.
There are not a few things that are naturally trapped in flocculents, including the bones of many people. Some of the skeletons staggered to their feet, trying to stop the fire-breathing monster. But they were all burned into a pile of fire by fire-breathing monsters, or they were hit by fire-breathing huge arms and flew out.
I was struggling when suddenly a fireball fell beside me, and the pile of floc that had trapped me suddenly burst into flames.
Strange to say, the things that stuck to me were burned by the fire, and they immediately shrank back like melted spider silk. The restraint on me disappeared in an instant. I jumped up like a spring and ran away from the pile of flocculents.
But the skeleton also broke out of its restraints and chased after me.
When I saw that the thing was so stubbornly haunting me, I couldn't help but get angry, turned around and kicked it in the chest, kicking it so hard that it flew backwards, and fell into the blazing fire. Its withered body was flammable, so in an instant it burned into a red flame, and there was some green in the flames, which was supposed to be the phosphorus burning in its bones. The ghost fire we encounter in the wild is the spontaneous combustion of phosphorus released from the bones of dead people when it encounters air. Because the ignition point of phosphorus is quite low.
I had time to breathe a sigh of relief when I heard a loud roar in front of me, and several fireballs flew past me. I looked up and gasped! The fire-breathing monster was almost in front of me! The skeletons that stood in its way looked like it had all been killed by it! But I couldn't be grateful to it, because it was me who was going to kill it now!
Naturally, I couldn't fight it, and I had only one thought, and that was: escape!
So I ran for my life down the path in the cave. And the king of horror is chasing after me, and we are engaged in a thrilling game of chase and escape in this underground world!
The ground in this cave is quite rugged, and there are bumps everywhere, stalactites and stalagmites everywhere, and pores and caves everywhere. On both sides of the road, from time to time there are huge cavities or underground rivers. Those cavities are tens of meters or even hundreds of meters high, and the water flow of those underground Yin rivers is also quite turbulent, and of course the water of that river is also quite deep. No matter where I fall, it's probably a dead word!
