Chapter 130: The Corpse Eater in the Mine
"Boss, let me go ahead." Tayon volunteered to be the first to enter the mine, and this non-dangerous errand was certainly the best opportunity to perform.
Zhang Yuan nodded, just as he also felt that there might be danger, and he couldn't be more happy to have Tai Meng walk in front: "Okay, but you have to pay attention to safety, and stop immediately if you find something wrong." ”
"Don't worry, boss." Tai patted his chest violently, turned around and burrowed into the tunnel.
"Then I'll trouble your highness." Zhang Yuan looked at Xuan Zijun, and after speaking, he followed behind Tai Meng, and the second entered the mine.
Not long after the three of them traveled in the mine, they found several prisoners lying on the ground, and they didn't seem to have been harmed by too many electric shocks, perhaps because all the thunder and lightning elements were sucked outside by Zhang Yuan.
"Ugh." Zhang Yuan withdrew his hand from the prisoner's neck and shook his head, this is the last one, all the prisoners here were not spared, all of them died in the mining disaster. It seems that even if they dodged the landslide and the electric current, they could not escape the impact of the explosion.
Xuan Zijun was also very disappointed, these slaves obviously came down with him, but he didn't protect them now. His eyes were red, he looked at Zhang Yuan and asked, "Do we still want to move on?" ”
Zhang Yuan looked at Tai Meng, this guy is now waiting for his own idea. After thinking for a while, Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's move on, maybe there are still people alive here." ”
The group walked in the mine for a while, and as they walked, Zhang Yuan suddenly heard an exclamation from Tai Meng in front of him, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
However, Tai Meng did not speak but ran forward quickly, Zhang Yuan did not dare to move for a while, so he could only stand in place and shout loudly: "Tai Meng, have you found anything?" ”
I saw Tai Meng knelt on the ground at once, turned his head and said, "Boss, come and see, it's the iron head, he's still alive!" ”
It turned out that the iron head was found, the stone in Zhang Yuan's heart fell to the ground, and he hurriedly ran over in three steps and two steps, and looked at the number of iron heads on the ground: "Can you not be so shocked next time, how about it, is the iron head okay?" ”
Tai Meng nodded and said, "It seems that there is no big problem, but I don't know when I will wake up." ”
"Hey, no, the iron head and Shen Cheng should be together, why is there only the iron head here, Shen Cheng?" Zhang Yuan was just happy that Tietou was alive, and suddenly thought that his little brother didn't have another one, and at that time the mining was all done together, why is there no one now?
"Oh, what about Shen Yin? Eh, boss, could it be that Shen Cheng is the one who got out of the mine? Taemon asked.
Xuan Zijun also rushed over at this time, looked at Zhang Yuan and the others who were guarding the iron head and asked, "How is it?" ”
"I can only say that I am still alive, and I don't know when I will wake up. Well, I think it's a dead end ahead, so let's get people out first. Zhang Yuan commanded Tai Meng to set up the iron head with him, this guy's size is not small, and Tai Meng can't be carried on his back alone.
When he returned, Xuan Zijun opened the way in front, and Zhang Yuan and Tai Meng were holding iron heads. Zhang Yuan complained as he walked: "The iron head is too heavy, it almost exhausts me." ”
"Ahh Someone exclaimed again in the mine, but this time it was Xuan Zijun's voice.
Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes, why was he making such a fuss, the atmosphere in this mine was already too tense, and he was shouting like this, which almost scared his heart out of trouble.
"it!" Zhang Yuan walked slowly to the place where Xuan Zijun was standing, and he couldn't hold back for a moment, and he burst into a foul mouth in surprise.
The place in front of them was where they had stayed for a while, and when they found that all the prisoners were out of breath, the three of them chose to move on. However, the corpse still on the ground is not even half of its original size, so it is no wonder that Zhang Yuan was surprised.
Although he didn't really want to find out because he was afraid of danger, it was not a way to leave such an obvious matter alone, so Zhang Yuan could only put down the iron head with Tai Meng first, and the three of them discussed how to deal with this matter.
"At that time, the three of us examined the corpse together, and I was not at ease, so I re-looked at the corpse you had seen. The problem now is that the prisoners, uh, slave laborers, who have been confirmed dead by the three of us, have disappeared. Zhang Yuan leaned against the rock wall, his face unconcealed worry.
Xuan Zijun also looked solemn, and then Zhang Yuan's words said: "The slaves who have died will not stand up and walk away by themselves, they may only be carried away by external forces." We haven't been out of here for long, but the bodies have disappeared so much that I don't think it would be the surviving slaves who were carrying them. ”
"Could it be that these dead people have been resurrected, maybe there is some evil magic master hidden in this mine, who secretly resurrected all the dead prisoners......"
"Shut up." Zhang Yuan rudely interrupted Tai Meng, who was full of mystery, what this guy said must not exist, but the disappearance of the prisoner's body is a real thing, and he must find a way to investigate it clearly.
Zhang Yuan looked at the corpses that were still on the ground, and said to Xuan Zijun: "Let's check the mine road before and after to see if there is anything else wrong nearby, Tai Meng will stay here and look at the iron head and the corpse." ”
"Okay." Xuan Zijun nodded and continued to explore in the direction of leaving the mine, while Zhang Yuan walked in the opposite direction, checking their way back with the iron head.
It would be nice if Brother Hang was here. Zhang Yuan walked less than two steps, and began to miss the spirit of the plug-in, if it was at this time, everything would be solved with a perspective.
"Ahh An exclamation suddenly interrupted Zhang Yuan's reverie.
"No, it's Taimeng's voice." Zhang Yuan didn't have time to think about it, how long had he been away for a long time before he heard Tai Meng screaming, something bad must have happened. When Zhang Yuan arrived at the position where he had just separated, Tai Meng was pointing to the ceiling of the mine in surprise, unable to say a word.
On top!
Zhang Yuan also looked up and looked up, a black and swarthy hole was above their heads, obviously the mine road was so high, but they didn't find this hole at all when they passed by. Zhang Yuan raised his head and walked a few more steps forward, and soon found the same hole.
Judging by the width of this hole, it should be more than enough for an adult to pass through, but people will not choose this kind of vertical up and down passage. Zhang Yuanqiang held back the bad feeling in his heart, reached out and touched the inner wall of the hole, and suddenly there was a slimy touch on his hand, and when he took it down, he saw an indescribable slime on his hand.
"Tai Meng, Tai Meng, tell me what just happened?" Zhang Yuan returned to Tai Meng's side and shook the latter vigorously, Tai Meng had just recovered from the shock, and there was still fear in his eyes.
"There's something, come down from above. Ha, ha, I was looking at the iron head just now, and I didn't pay attention to the situation over there, but then I heard a strange sound and looked over there. As a result, I saw a dark shadow and dragged the body to it. ”
"It should be some kind of animal, a saprovore." Xuan Zijun also rushed back, he had just observed these holes, and came over with a somewhat ugly face and said, "I guess it's rotting crickets, this animal has no combat effectiveness, and generally likes to pick up corpses on the battlefield or other dead people's places to eat, but I think unconscious people will also eat them." ”
Zhang Yuan frowned and said, "If you don't have any combat power, can we kill them." ”
"Seems like it's okay, after all, you can be so powerful with thunder and lightning magic."
Zhang Yuan hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't mention this, I have already stated in advance, I am from the Star Moon System, and I don't know any thunder and lightning magic, and don't you know that the prisoners have to ban the demons before they come in, and I can't release any magic now." ”
"Why don't you want to use magic to get rid of these pests, you obviously know the magic of the thunder and lightning system, everyone can see it!" Xuan Zijun said with some anger, obviously as long as Zhang Yuan was willing to get rid of these rotten crickets, he could prevent these things from attacking the unconscious survivors.
"I said I wouldn't, why don't you believe me like that?" Zhang Yuan was also speechless, this was all a bad thing made by the spirit of the plug-in, and now everyone regarded him as a very powerful thunderbolt magician, only he knew that he was not a fart.
"Well, if you don't, there's not much I can do about them. But I'm still going to try to get rid of these bastards, and I can't let them desecrate the dead, and if I die, let them eat me, and I don't need you to collect the corpses. Xuan Zijun was also emotional, and his words were very excited.
"I don't think you're smart enough to do that, and if you die, you're just filling their bellies and letting them deal with the rest of us." A cold voice suddenly came from behind Xuan Zijun.
And people!
Zhang Yuan looked behind him over Xuan Zijun's shoulder, and after seeing the appearance of the person who came, his eyes immediately widened. Zhang Yuan said that this voice was so familiar, it turned out to be his third younger brother.
"Shen Cheng, are you okay?" Zhang Yuan stood up and asked.
"I'm fine, boss." Shin shrugged, as if he didn't want to say much.
Tai Meng's face was also full of surprise, and said: "Shen Cheng, it turns out that you really woke up by yourself, I thought they dragged you up, and they almost scared me to death." ”
"It was like this, but the guy who wanted to eat me didn't expect me to suddenly resist and be injured by me, but I didn't get a bargain." Shen raised his arm, where his clothes had turned into strips of cloth with abrasions and blood stains.
"But why doesn't there be any sound when you push the stone wall open? We were nearby, but we didn't feel any movement. Xuan Zijun asked with some confusion.
Shen Cheng looked at Xuan Zijun, then at Zhang Yuan and Tai Meng, and then raised his hand and said, "Okay, I confess, I did my tricks and feet when I was banned from demons, and I was not completely deprived of the ability to use magic. At that time, I thought about going out to see the situation outside, but I was afraid of alarming the monsters, so I used a sound barrier to block the sound of the stone wall falling. ”
"Then why did you ......?"
"Because I saw that you guys haven't gone out for so long, I'll follow up to see what happens, after all, if I can get a sword, I'll be more sure not to be eaten." Shen Cheng looked at Taemeng, who had asked half the question, and said.
"Your answer is really ruthless." Zhang Yuan said with a wry smile, "It seems that we have one more man, but there is also one more problem." I think we'd better get out of here first, and then we'll have a good discussion of countermeasures. ”
