Chapter 15 Fierce Ants
Ye Xuan thought about it, and began to hesitate, if he pressed the wrong direction, it would trigger the alarm, and when the time came, it would not be good to trigger the patrol of the City Lord's Mansion.
The rain became heavier and heavier, like beads with broken threads, falling on the ground, accumulating thicker and thicker, gradually submerging the soles of Ye Xuan's shoes, he looked at the rain in front of him, and his thoughts flew wildly, because he found that the rain on the ground was not flowing irregularly, as the saying goes, people go to high places, and water flows to low places, and at this time, the surrounding water is converging towards the center of the ground......
The ground here is made of bluestone slabs, filled with clay around it, it is very flat, there is no underground drainage system here, in order to prevent water accumulation, the middle of the terrain is slightly higher than the surrounding area, but the water is constantly flowing back to the middle, which looks very strange and contrary to common sense.
Ye Xuan frowned, his eyes were gradually attracted by the big stone slab in the middle, and he walked over step by step and began to check it. I saw that there was a very thin layer of clay at the junction between this stone slab and the surrounding area, and the surrounding rainwater was constantly flowing back here and seeping ......
Ye Xuan squatted down and stretched out his hand to knock, and immediately frowned, because he found that the bottom of this stone slab was actually hollow. Could it be that the iron fence gate was just an oolong?" he thought, and suddenly grabbed the sides of the stone slab and lifted it upwards with all his might.
"Boom!" The moment the slate opened, a rancid and moldy smell came out of it, and sure enough, as he expected, there was an underground stone chamber below, the stone chamber was about three or four meters high, and there were candlesticks around it, although it was underground, the light was also very bright.
Ye Xuan stretched out his head and looked inside, the stone room was empty at this time, maybe at this time, no one would have thought that someone would break in, Ye Xuan thought, a vertical jump jumped, and landed firmly on the ground in the basement.
"......" At the moment when Ye Xuan landed, a strange sound came from his ears, Ye Xuan turned his head to look, only to see a black object crawling over from the corner.
It turned out that under the corner of the stone chamber, there were several holes in the ground, and these black things crawled out of the holes. Their individuals are very large, the size of Ye Xuan's head, and they also have sharp antennae on their heads, which are dark and shiny, and they look extremely poisonous!
"Fierce poisonous ants!" Ye Xuan had seen this creature before, this is a highly poisonous ant, they like to live in tropical rainforests, or barren deserts, as long as they bite it, the toxin enters the body, and it will be paralyzed and paralyzed at best, and their lives will be lost!
Seeing the fierce poisonous ants crawling out of the burrow in swarms, constantly approaching here, Ye Xuan's expression gradually became solemn, because he knew the characteristics of this creature, once he found the target, he would keep tracking it until he was full. He wanted to go back along the passage, but when he looked up, there was still a passage.
I saw that on the top of the stone room, I don't know when there was a big net, the silk thread of this net is very thin, showing dark gray, called silver thread, the net made of silver thread, the water can't be rushed, the fire can't be extinguished, and even the ordinary sword can't be cut.
Ye Xuan had Zhou Liuxing in his hand, so he was naturally not afraid of this kind of Skynet mechanism, but he was not in a hurry to break through, but held his breath and concentrated, feeling every trace of change in the aura around him.
As the fierce poisonous ants got closer and closer, Ye Xuan was gradually surrounded, and in desperation, he raised the ancient sword and swung countless sword qi around, instantly killing the fierce poisonous ants, but the number of such creatures was too large, killing a group, and soon gathered a large pile!
At this moment, two not weak breaths came from the surroundings, Ye Xuan looked around, but he didn't find any trace of anyone, he immediately put away the ancient sword, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
As the fierce poisonous ants poured out of the nest, soon, the entire stone chamber was covered with this creature, and Ye Xuan's body was already crawling with thousands of poisonous ants, and he shouted in pain while struggling to get rid of it.
"Ah, help!" Ye Xuan screamed, rolling on the ground, as there were more and more fierce poisonous ants, it didn't take long for his body to be covered by the ant colony and no longer move......
After a while, I heard a loud "boom", and a stone gate emerged from the north wall, and there was a secret passage on the stone wall! In the dark passage, I saw two burly strong men walking out, their steps were steady, their eyes were sharp, and they were holding a huge plate axe in their hands, and they were equipped with throwing knives on their waists, which looked very powerful, which was the sign of a second-class guard.
From the perspective of the entire imperial army, except for some nobles and psychics in the sect, the guards are the main combat strength, and a second-class guard is even more precious, requiring years of painstaking cultivation, and their individual combat ability is no less than that of the tigers in the forest. Even in a place like the City Lord's Mansion, the number of second-class guards is not very large......
"Second child, collect the corpse!" a strong man looked at the fierce poisonous ants in the room, and roared in a thick voice.
Another strong man nodded, and took out a round bowl from his arms, which was filled with a silver powder, and he grabbed the silver powder and sprinkled it all over the stone room, and those fierce poisonous ants suddenly retreated into the burrow like a tide......
Seeing this, the two strong men walked into the stone room step by step, came to Ye Xuan, carried his corpse, and said, "This kid is not very old, why did he come here?"
Another strong man said: "Who knows, let's throw the corpse into the water prison first, and wait for the young city lord to release it tomorrow!"
"Hmm!" the two of them said, walking towards the passageway.
"Big brother, what does it feel like for this fierce ant to bite someone?"
"Hell, I haven't experienced it, but you see that this kid has fine skin and tender flesh, and his hands are bitten out of pus, and the taste is definitely not comfortable!"
"Well, but compared to the water prison, this kind of death can be regarded as a relief......
"Really?" A cold young man's voice came from his ears, and the two strong men suddenly became nervous, and before they could make any moves, Ye Xuan flipped off their shoulders, turned around and slashed at the two of them with a sword.
The two strong men were worthy of being second-class guards, and although they were attacked by a sneak attack, they were in danger, and they immediately picked up their axes and swept them, which was able to block this sudden fatal blow.
Ye Xuan was already a third-order psychic master, and he had already broken away from the mortal roots, and the power of this sword was enough to cut through gold and jade, but what he didn't expect was that these two guards were extraordinary, and they actually dissolved this death sword, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"This kid isn't dead!" One of the strong men stared at Ye Xuan with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief!
"This kid has been poisoned by ants before, his grandmother's, dare to play Lao Tzu, look at the knife!" the strong man shouted, his body was crooked, and he quickly threw out a white light towards Ye Xuan.
"Huh!" The passage was very narrow, and coupled with the extremely fast speed of the flying knife, Ye Xuan was not paying attention, and a blood mark was instantly left on his left shoulder. He wiped a handful of blood and looked at the two big men with a solemn expression, although they were not psychics, their strength was not inferior in any way, and they were both well-trained first-level killers.
