Chapter 91: The Dungeon
After changing into the costume of a dragon-blooded warrior, Hong Yuan continued to move forward.
Along the way, I met several corpses from time to time. Some have been dead for a long time, with only a few bones left, and some have just died, and the blood on their bodies has not yet dried. For hundreds of years, I don't know how many explorers have been here, and how many have stayed forever.
Continuing to walk forward, half an hour later, a huge underground square appeared in front of Hong Yuan.
On the square, many pillars of flame stand tall, and the flames that burst into the sky illuminate the underground world. At the end of the square is a gate, behind which is an undulating ancient palace, and above the gate, there are four ancient characters written 'Lishui Ancient City'. Despite the long years it has passed, the ancient palace still looks huge and magnificent, even more spectacular than Shattered Leaf City.
It turns out that the ancient ruins on the ground are just a disguise, and this is the real ancient city of Lishui!
Hong Yuan's heart was shocked, he didn't see it with his own eyes, he couldn't imagine that there was such a spectacular underground ancient city underground.
In front of the gate at the end of the square, a large group of people were gathering, killing the ancestral crocodile that poured out of the door, and the killing sound shook the sky. More than a thousand meters away, Hong Yuan saw an exceptionally large totem pole in the distance, as well as a winged flying snake flying in the air. Ye Tiangao was also in the crowd, leading many Ye family disciples to fight bloody battles together, and they wanted to work together to fight with the people.
Along the way, large and small underground spaces or tombs have been swept away, and if there are any treasures in the underground ancient city, they must be in the palace complex behind the square.
"Fortunately, it's not too late, now notify Ye Tiangao that they still have time!"
"No, where are Chu Tuhan and those dragon blood warriors under his command?"
Seeing Ye Tiangao's figure from a distance, Hong Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to walk out of the darkness to meet Ye Tiangao, when he suddenly felt a shock in his heart, thinking of the murderous Chu Tuhan and many dragon blood warriors.
After killing He Shuntian, along the way, he never saw any dragon blood warriors again, did they lose their way, or did they temporarily cancel the operation and turned away?
The only explanation is that they lurk on the sidelines, waiting for the best moment like an experienced hunter!
Hong Yuan felt that something was wrong, and searched carefully around with his thoughts.
Sure enough, it didn't take long to find the figures of Chu Tuhan and the dragon blood warriors, and a large group of black pressure was lurking in the darkness a hundred meters away from Ye Tiangao and others. It seems that they have followed Ye Tiangao and others to the underground square for a long time, and they have been waiting for a long time, and they have not made a move, but they have coldly watched Ye Tiangao and the ancestral crocodiles gushing out of the gate, and they want to launch a fatal blow when they are exhausted.
Obviously, the strength is superior and occupies an absolute advantage, but he still waits patiently, just for the thunderous blow at the critical moment, this Qinglong Hou Chu Tu Han is really not an ordinary person!
Hong Yuan's face became solemn, killing chickens is to use a knife, like a goshawk fighting a rabbit, that is, to do all his best to crush the opponent, the bigger the gap in strength between each other, the better, this is the biggest principle of fighting with people.
When he was very young, Hong Yuan learned this truth under the teaching of his aunt Liu Ruyan, and tried it repeatedly in hunting. It is the most stupid thing to fight with the opponent at every turn. Now it seems that Chu Tuhan is also one of the masters, and he understands the principles and art of fighting.
Against Chu Tuhan, a strong enemy, Hong Yuan had scruples and knew that he had finally ushered in a real opponent.
Liu Yidao is very strong, his knife skills are amazing, and he is also proficient in calculation, he can lay out deadly killing moves quietly, and he was almost killed by him in the endless abyss last time, however, compared with Chu Tuhan, it seems that he is always a little worse in terms of great strategy. If Liu Yidao is a warrior, then Chu Tuhan is a commander, which is the biggest difference between the threats that the two give to Hong Yuan. As for Liu Ziming's squishiness, Hong Yuan didn't treat him as a real opponent from beginning to end.
The wind came from all sides in the underground square, and it brought a chill.
Ye Tiangao and the others were still fighting hard, eager to rush into the palace behind the gate, everyone wanted to find some peerless treasure, and before they knew it, they had already become the prey of others, not knowing that the hunter lurking on the side had raised the cold butcher's knife.
Hong Yuan hesitated for a while, cautiously stepped onto the underground square, walked in the darkness against the wall, and walked towards Ye Tiangao and them from the other side of the square, hoping to notify Ye Tiangao and others to evacuate urgently before Chu Tuhan and the others made trouble.
After not taking a few steps, Hong Yuan suddenly paused, feeling as if he had stepped on something. When I looked down, it turned out to be a scorpion that accidentally stepped on its tail. This guy was very fierce, and suddenly turned around, and a pair of horned limbs like two pliers, and like two knives, stabbed Hong Yuan's right foot viciously.
Hong Yuan's eyes were quick, and he quickly took half a step back, and with his speed, he also made a false alarm, and his boots had already been cut open. The movement is a little slower, but I am afraid that my right foot will be injured. The scorpion did not stop, and raised its dark red scorpion tail, with a tail pin at the end that seemed to shoot out like a crossbow arrow. The tail needle flashed with black light, and it was obviously highly toxic.
The big fat cat that was walking in front suddenly turned around, bit the ferocious poisonous scorpion, chewed a few times and swallowed it, then licked its lips, looked around, and rushed up with an arrow step, and took out another scorpion from the darkness. This time, Hong Yuan didn't let it swallow, and pinched the scorpion to observe it carefully.
Like a common scorpion, the creature was almost black, but had a reddish tail, a long, lanky body with striped abdominal markings, a shape similar to that of a lute, a torso divided into six segments, six pairs of appendages, a pair of tactile horned whiskers, two pairs of walking lower limbs, and a pair of predatory horned limbs. It's these horned limbs that make it extraordinarily ferocious, sharper than an ordinary blade.
"Spotted scorpion?"
Hong Yuan suddenly remembered an ancient demon beast, rumored to be a variant of the ancient scorpion, fierce and aggressive by nature, often a large group as soon as it appeared, and when they gathered together, they didn't even dare to provoke powerful demon beasts. Because it likes dark and damp places, it often appears in old tombs and other places, and is also known as the tomb knife scorpion, which is a nightmare for explorers and tomb robbers.
When Hong Yuan looked carefully, the big fat cat became excited, and took out a few scorpions from the darkness to eat. For explorers, the tomb knife scorpion is a big thing, but for the big fat cat, it seems to be a delicacy, and they are happy to eat one bite at a time.
Seeing the courage of the big fat cat, Hong Yuan was not happy, on the contrary, his face became even more solemn.
The Tomb Scorpion is a social demon beast, and the older the group, the larger the number. This underground tomb in front of me has a history of thousands of years, so how many tomb scorpions must be in the dark?
The dangerous aura that rippled in the darkness became even stronger.
In addition to Chu Tuhan and the dragon blood warriors led by him, Hong Yuan felt another danger. It's good that I didn't notice this dangerous aura, but after discovering it, I tracked it down, and found that this aura was everywhere, around the underground square, and in the palaces behind the gates, all of them were rippling with this aura, and even the entire underground tomb was shrouded in it, as if this was a huge scorpion nest.
