Chapter 12: The Gossip Mystery Array
"What's inside?" Jiang Botong asked as he looked at Li Xuyang. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yes, it seems to be a skin. Li Xuyang said, put the box on the ground, and took out the skin from the box. After opening it, the skin showed something similar to a map, but Li Xuyang had never heard of the location marked on it.
"Picture?" After Jiang Botong heard it, he took a closer look. This time, not only Li Xuyang, but even the place where he commented on it was unheard of.
"Ah~"
Just as Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong were carefully studying the map drawn on the skin, Wu Qin on the side let out a miserable scream. They hurriedly turned their heads to look, only to see Wu Qin's usual frightened movements and expressions once again displayed in front of them.
"What are you smoking?" Li Xuyang asked with an angry glance at him.
"It's moving, it's moving, the sculptures, they're moving. Wu Qin spoke a little incoherently, and he was very scared, and this fear was a bit excessive. It is said that from the beginning of the Yin soldier he met at the beginning, after meeting the wooden man and so on, Wu Qin should have become bolder, but completely unexpectedly, not only did he not have the boldness, but he became more timid.
Hearing Wu Qin's words, Li Xuyang and Jiang Botong looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, the sculpture that was still standing motionless just now began to shake like a corpse borrowing a corpse to resurrect its soul.
From the very beginning, it was not a sculpture, but a corpse. Or maybe they're zombies, but they're just the dust that has been accumulated over the years, making them look like sculptures.
Seeing the resurrection of those dead bodies, Jiang Botong immediately reached into his pocket to get the rune paper, but after taking it out, he realized that when he had just passed through the 2nd good tomb, the rune paper had already been wet, and the wet rune paper had lost all its function and became waste paper.
"We can't deal with them without rune paper. Jiang Botong and Li Xuyang stood side by side, looking at the zombies that began to slowly approach them after shaking.
"Click, click. ”
One by one, the zombies jumped up from the ground, and the sound of falling knocked on the hearts of the three of them like a giant hammer.
"What should I do?" asked Li Xuyang, looking at the zombies who were getting closer and closer to him, and Jiang Botong, who was also at a loss.
"I don't know, there are four times as many of them, and our physical strength is less than forty percent, if we are strong, we will suffer a lot. Jiang Botong analyzed.
"Well, we need to conserve our strength now, after all, there are still many unknown dangers, if we spend too much physical strength here, maybe we will die, and it will be ugly. ”
"Isn't there a burial chamber four? After Jiang Botong finished speaking, he began to look on the mountain wall behind the stone platform to see if there was a mechanism for the passage to the fourth tomb.
Unfortunately, the zombies have surrounded them, and they still haven't been able to find the mechanism to get to Tomb Four.
"It's over, it's over, it's really dead this time. Wu Qin looked at the twelve zombies who could jump up to the stone platform while speaking, and tears flowed out of his eyes in fright.
"Hold your breath, these zombies are all based on smell. Seeing that the zombies were coming, Li Xuyang had no choice but to learn like the zombie movie played by Master Lin, so that everyone could stop breathing for a while, whether it worked or not, try it.
As soon as Li Xuyang finished speaking, Wu Qin and Jiang Botong immediately covered their mouths and noses with their hands. Sure enough, after they stopped breathing, the zombies began to panic a little, and they were originally neatly arranged, but after the commotion, they immediately regained their calm, and they all stood in place one by one and sniffed the air with their noses.
"It worked. Wu Qin saw that those zombies were no longer looking for him, and he was so proud that he forgot that he couldn't speak. As these two words blurted out, two of the twelve zombies instantly jumped in front of him.
He sat down on the ground in fright, and then immediately closed his eyes, not speaking or breathing.
Li Xuyang watched Wu Qin's movements, and after scolding "idiot" in his heart, his eyes looked around, trying to find the mechanism leading to the No. 4 tomb. But after looking around the mountain wall for a week, there was still nothing to be found.
However, there was one thing that aroused his suspicions, and that was that on the mountain wall there were all other stones that glowed blue, and only in the middle of the mountain wall on one side was a stone that glowed with a pale orange light, and the light was also flickering and dimming, like a light bulb with a bad electrical contact.
And Li Xuyang, they didn't find that place in the first place, because that place has always been from a relatively unnoticeable place. It was also after Li Xuyang touched the box on the stone platform that the pale orange stone faintly glowed.
Li Xuyang still covered his mouth and nose, tried to hold his breath as much as possible, and then carefully came down from the stone platform, walking very lightly under his feet, and he was afraid that he would make a little noise and be heard by those zombies. After walking past the zombie in horror, he slowly walked under the stone that glowed with a pale orange light.
Standing on tiptoe, the tips of his fingers just couldn't touch the pale orange stone, which made Li Xuyang anxious. After making a bet, he let go of the hand covering his mouth and nose, and silently said in his heart, "It must be the switch to open the door, it must be!"
After finishing the silent recitation, his scent had been captured by the twelve zombies, and the twelve zombies jumped together as fast as they could in the direction that Li Xuyang knew.
"Ah" Li Xuyang shouted, his feet jumped hard, and his right hand slapped the pale orange stone.
As soon as his feet hit the ground, a zombie's withered hand reached out to him, and he rolled to the ground, dodging the zombie's attack, followed by another zombie's attack. had to roll to the side, but the pale orange stone was indeed slapped in by Li Xuyang, but the door that should have been opened never appeared.
"It's over. ”
Watching the zombies continue to attack, Li Xuyang clung to the wall, and when the hands of a zombie were less than a centimeter away from Li Xuyang's neck, the zombie's hand stopped, and he was also glad that at the critical moment, he held his breath.
Seeing that Li Xuyang was fine, Jiang Botong and Wu Qin on the stone platform also secretly breathed a sigh, but as soon as this breath came out, the twelve zombies turned to them again.
"Oops. After a bad sound, it was too late to hold their breath, just now because of the long-term breath holding had almost paralyzed their brains, and they could only dodge the attacks of one zombie after another.
"Run. After Jiang Botong reminded Wu Qin on the side, he jumped directly over the zombie's head from the stone platform, Wu Qin was not as sharp as Jiang Botong, so he could only crawl under the zombie.
And when Wu Qin ran past the zombie, he was blocked by a zombie, and in desperation, he had to stick to the side of the mountain wall to avoid the zombie's attack and run out. Without paying attention, he was scratched on his arm by the edges and corners of the stone protruding from the mountain wall, and blood flowed out of his arm.
Blood is a zombie's favorite thing, and it's even more so than sharks. After asking about the smell of blood, a few zombies actually climbed on the mountain wall and licked the little blood that Wu Qin left on the mountain wall. There were also a few lying on the ground, sucking the blood that Wu Qin had shed on the ground.
"Ah, it hurts. After Wu Qin ran behind Jiang Botong, he covered his arm with one hand, and the sweat on his forehead was exposed.
"Give me a little blood. Jiang Botong said and took Wu Qin's hand away with his hand, then used his own hand to dip it on the wound on his arm, and after tearing off a piece of his own clothes, he said, "Go and block the zombies, try to delay me for a while, I'll draw a talisman." ”
"Good. Li Xuyang agreed.
Jiang Botong said again, "From now on, I can't be affected in the slightest, otherwise I will be counterattacked." ”
After Li Xuyang knew the stakes, he made up his mind that as long as he didn't die, he couldn't let the zombies get close. Wu Qin on the side looked at Jiang Botong, slowly drawing something he couldn't understand on the cloth with his own blood.
"Don't be stupid, you go too, or everyone will die here. Jiang Botong gritted his teeth and said.
"Oooh. Wu Qin agreed to step forward, as soon as he stepped forward, he immediately became the target of the zombies, and the target of all the zombies was him alone.
"Run to the side. Jiang Botong kicked him from behind, and then he stepped back, dodging the zombies, and continued to draw.
In this way, the twelve zombies only chased Wu Qin alone, and they were almost surrounded by zombies several times, but at the critical moment, Li Xuyang still stepped forward to rescue.
After Jiang Botong drew the runes on the cloth, he immediately drew a big gossip on the ground, and then wrote the handwriting on the gossip before he said, "Run, run, run." ”
After Wu Qin heard this, he immediately ran to Jiang Botong's place.
"Pay attention to your step, don't step on it, Lao Tzu finally finished painting. ”
"Oh. Wu Qin stepped on the blank space from the gossip map, and after he passed, all twelve zombies ran into the gossip map. After Jiang Botong saw this, he immediately pasted the edge of the gossip map with the talisman he had just drawn, and shouted in his mouth.
"The Qiankun Xun is shaking, and the cans are away from Gendu. Gossip maze array, open. ”
At the same time that Jiang Botong shouted out those eight words, the eight words written in the gossip diagram on the ground lit up one by one with the order in which he shouted, emitting a golden light. The blood on the spell under his hand also flowed into the Bagua Diagram, forming an octagonal shape, trapping the twelve zombies firmly in the Bagua Array.
"Whew. After everything was done, Jiang Botong let out a sigh of relief. This kind of formation is a kind of forbidden formation, and many books have been destroyed, and he also accidentally saw this formation. To be honest, this was the first time he had used it, and although it took a lot of energy, the ultimate goal was achieved, and those zombies could no longer move the slightest.
With the zombies being charged, behind the stone platform, a bright light emitted a white light as a stone door opened.
