Zhang Qixun touched the neck of the corpse again and found that his upper cervical vertebra was seriously dislocated. In other words, Huo Chuqi was killed by a single blow, and he simply broke his neck.

After understanding that Huo Xiaoli was the Wang family, Zhang Qixun was not surprised by the coffin lid and the matter of pinching the dead with his hands.

The ability of the Wang family should not be underestimated, their training methods may be more stringent than the Zhang family, and those who can persevere are not good characters.

That kid is really hidden, unlike the Wang family who wore a fake face mask in the past, Huo Xiaoli used his real face, otherwise Zhang Qixun would not be unable to find a flaw, so the chance of him being exposed was even smaller.

From this point of view, he should have been the one who ordered Huo Xiaoyao to take the initiative to die, no wonder Huo Xiaoyao's last eyes were looking in his direction.

And it is estimated that this is also within his calculations, and he can take this opportunity to use Zhang Qixun's means to prove his innocence, and even Huo Xiangu himself has basically dispelled his suspicions.

The bell above the coffin was also taken away by Huo Xiaoli, and the impact of that bell on the Zhang family is still unknown for the time being, but Huo Xiaoli must have discovered the problem with the reeds inside.

Zhang Qixun put the corpses of the Huo family, who were substitutes for the dead ghosts, into a body bag and put them into the space, and then covered the coffin lid again.

Beyond the hole in the wall is a coffin, which appears to have several rows on the third floor.

But the footprints in the coffin only lingered in the corridors inside and outside for a while, before being interrupted in front of a cubicle.

Zhang Qixun looked up, frowned slightly, then turned around and went back to Zhang Ruitong's coffin, and walked quickly to the entrance of the third floor after going out.

That kid is smart, and in that moment of crisis, he still thinks about the sound of the voice, and uses footprints to confuse those who may come to check later.

He suddenly thought that when the fat man and the others came in, in order to prevent Huo Youxue from getting the key clues, they simply brought in all the information about the Zhangjia Ancient Building that they could take away, and together with several drawings of Style Lei, they had always been collected by Huo Xiaoli.

In order to ensure the safety of the Zhang family who came to the funeral, each floor of the ancient building actually set up a temporary safe house to place similar burial goods, with drawings in hand, Huo Xiaoli can indeed find another temporary place to hide from the strong alkali.

As a result, this place was on the fourth floor, and Huo Xiaoli obviously knew that the deeper layers of the ancient building were the place where the secrets of the Zhang family were sealed, so he would definitely keep going down.

Zhang Qixun went downstairs along the stairs while letting go of the danger perception to search for Huo Xiaoli's existence. Soon came to the fourth floor, but found that the black ball on the back of the turtle in the center of the hall was missing, and it seemed that it had also been taken away by Huo Xiaoli.

But at the same time, Zhang Qixun also found a lot of strange marks on the dust on the ground, on both sides were palm prints with three fingers, and in the middle there was a long palm-wide drag mark, crooked, extending from the side of the face turtle to the surroundings, and the ground on this layer was full of traces of this unknown creature crawling.

It seemed that some monster that looked like a snake and had two hands had escaped from the mezzanine beneath the human-faced turtle.

Zhang Qixun approached and found that the surface of the shell of the human-faced turtle was messily covered with a layer of light green plastic-like film, like the slime left by something crawling, and it became like this after it dried up.

He couldn't help frowning, muttering secretly in his heart,

"What the hell is this? I'm not afraid of alkaline gas! He reached out and peeled off a piece of green film, and found that it was very flexible, and it took a lot of force to tear it off.

In the center of the shell of the human-faced turtle, the place where the black ball was originally placed has now become a black hole, Zhang Qixun stood up and looked inside, a strange fishy sweet smell came to his nose, and the gas mask could not block the very fishy smell.

He turned on his flashlight and shone it in, and was shocked to find that the mezzanine below was full of green slime, and there were even some light green snake-like things burrowing in the slimy green water.

In the center of the slime was half a blood-colored human corpse, and the white bones on the downward half of the body had come out, soaked in green water eerily.

The flesh and skin on the other half of his body were also eaten clean, leaving only red and pink flesh, as if a lot of grass-green maggots had been drilled into it, and there were small bursts of waves with the green mucus around him.

A broken package floated next to the corpse, and the green creatures that were burrowing around were feeding on the mass, and the harsh light shining through it had no effect on them.

Zhang Qixun squinted and looked at the backpack carefully, it was not the Huo family's, it should be Jude Kao's subordinates, but he didn't expect to see it here first.

The small green snake-like creatures in the mezzanine looked like juveniles, some were only the thickness of fingers, and some looked like mutated tadpoles.

It also made him see the appearance of this thing thoroughly. It looks a bit like a salamander, but it's much flatter than a salamander, and it lacks two hind legs and one toe of its front leg, and its head is a thin triangle, like a snake's head, but it has no eyes, so it doesn't matter if there is light or not.

This strange soft-bodied creature is bare, it seems that it has no skin, or maybe it is mucus that replaces their skin, crawling slowly like a snail, and when it moves, you can see a green blood-like liquid flowing inside, and its body is smooth as if it has been oiled, and its tail and body are thin sheets, and they disappear in the moment they burrow into the green water.

Before he could figure out what this thing was, a slight friction sound was suddenly caught in his ears, Zhang Qixun immediately turned his head to look behind him, and found that a person lying flat appeared on the ground, slowly moving in an extremely strange posture.

At first glance, it was really shocking, like a corpse. Zhang Qixun quietly moved away from the face turtle, intending to retreat to the corner of the wall to take a closer look, but as soon as he took two steps back, the corpse on the ground stopped moving, and a lump of green flat liquid like a slug poked its head out from under the corpse a little bit, and the direction was facing Zhang Qixun.

Zhang Qixun's heart suddenly groaned, it was broken, the perception of this thing was even keener than he imagined!

At this moment, the same rustling sound of rubbing the ground was heard from another direction, and soon, the rustling sound sounded throughout the space.

Zhang Jixun realized that he had unknowingly been surrounded by this strange creature, and the ground around him was full of flattened kelp-like baby snakes.

"Holy shit, damn it." Zhang Qixun scolded secretly, why didn't he find anything here when he came back last time, or was it the release of alkaline gas that woke them up?

He found a trap buckle from the space and put it on his wrist, but the ground was impassable, so he could only try to walk from above.

However, before he could start moving, he saw that those slippery baby snakes seemed to have suddenly lost their perception of their prey, and went straight around Zhang Qi to find the human face turtle and began to climb.

“？” Zhang Qixun wondered in his heart, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and then he slowed down and approached a doll snake with only one gas mask in check.

He clearly saw that the baby snake first felt a living creature approaching, moved a few meters to his side, and then suddenly seemed to be scalded by boiling water, twisted its body and accelerated its speed to crawl towards the mezzanine, and even threw the gas mask in its hand in place.

In order to verify the conjecture in his heart, Zhang Qixun quickly caught up with the doll snake, picked a little wound with the tip of the knife, and squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it on the doll snake's body.

Then he saw an unbelievable picture. The moment the blood droplets touched the baby snake, its body suddenly began to emit a large amount of gray smoke, emitting a burnt and fishy smell, and the entire kelp twisted in pain.

The gray smoke seemed to take away a lot of water from its body, and in less than ten seconds, the baby snake curled into a mass of black cinders, and the baby snake near it ran faster like a fire.

Zhang Qixun put on his gloves again, picked up the small black ball the size of a marble from the ground, and just turned it over, but his eyes suddenly froze.

He saw a face, a small, crumpled face, but the features on it were very clear, like the face of a baby who had been soaked in amniotic fluid for a long time.

The shape of this face looked very familiar, almost the same as the dense human face on the back of the turtle he had seen at the beginning.

Could it be that the big black ball is made up of many small black balls that have dried up and stuck together? That's not right, the touch of the black ball is very sure that it is metal, but it is much lighter than the ordinary metal ball, which means that it is not solid inside.

He suddenly had an immature conjecture and decided to test it. After knowing that this thing was afraid of unicorn blood, Zhang Qixun had no scruples, and chased after a few lone ones, dripped blood on them, and then got several little black faces like sheep dung balls.

The expressions on these black faces are also different, some are afraid, some look like they are grinning and crying, some have crooked mouths and eyes as if they have had a stroke, some are cross-eyed, and some are grimacing, which is quite interesting to see when you get used to it.

He climbed up to the back of the turtle again, tied one of the small black balls to the yarn and threw it into the green water in the mezzanine below, and then the yarn broke, and the little black ball hanging on it was gone.

Zhang Qixun was not discouraged, and hung down again, this time hanging down where the corpse had not been submerged and eaten, and then waited quietly.

In less than two minutes, the little black ball suddenly twisted into the slime-soaked flesh, and then it was like a balala magic transformation, and after a while, it reverted to the original long kelp, happy as if it was fine.

No way? Awesome little black ball. Through the current phenomena, Zhang Qixun analyzed that this kind of kelp snake-like thing floating in the green slime should be deliberately raised here by the Zhang family, playing a role similar to that of the scavengers of ancient buildings.

Even if the mechanism outside and Milota are not blocked, the intruder who enters the ancient building will be killed by the alkaline gas released by the mechanism, which will then become the ration of this strange creature.

The reason why I say this is because this thing is afraid of the blood of the unicorn, and the old stuffy blood is its nemesis, although it can't be killed, it can also play a deterrent role.

And that small metal ball is likely to be the lid that blocks the mezzanine passage, the last time he was here, the little brother and the Huo family, maybe because they both had unicorn blood on their bodies, this creature did not drill out and attack people silently.

I have to say that there are really a lot of strange things that the Zhang family has come up with, just relying on the old stuffy treasure blood to protect the body, but it is really beautiful, making the best use of things, and it is very nice.

Huo Xiaoli took the black ball lid away, and he didn't know if there was a little black face secretly following him. After figuring out the reason, Zhang Qixun didn't plan to stay here longer, so he found a small glass jar in the space, put the remaining few shriveled little black faces in it and sealed it, and then found the exit and left here.

There was nothing abnormal in the next three floors, and Zhang Qixun quickly came to the stone chamber on the seventh floor through the secret passage.

At this time, the alkali gas in the ancient building has basically dispersed, during this period, Zhang Qixun changed more than a dozen sets of protective clothing, all of which were produced by the system, and the material was comparable to the military nuclear, biological and chemical protective clothing in later generations.

Glancing at the time on his watch, two hours had passed since he came out of the secret room. Further down is the stone floor of the most primitive Zhangjia Ancient Building.

New footprints passed through the stone gate and went all the way down. Zhang Qixun followed him to the lower space of the column, and found a discarded used protective suit and a gas mask in the drainage canal next to the stone chamber.

There were a lot of blackened blood marks on the inside of the protective suit, and it seemed that Huo Xiaoli was still injured by poison gas. Zhang Qixun put his hand into the drain, letting the cold water wash over his skin, and he thought in his heart where Huo Xiaoli would go next.

I recalled the model of the ancient building I had seen a few days ago, and then got up and walked forward along the stone path of the Nine Turns Lotus, and came back to the top of the cliff wall of the waterhole.

Then he held his breath and dived underwater, groped carefully on the stone wall of the waterhole, and found a carved secret door under the water in less than half a cup of tea.

Zhang Qixun surfaced, took a deep breath of oxygen and returned to the bottom of the water, and pushed hard against the secret door, the door was pushed open, the water on both sides was connected, and the water in the waterhole rushed over at once, and Zhang Qixun continued to hold his breath and swim into the passage behind.

There is a square waterway inside, and after swimming more than 20 meters, the waterway in front of it gradually becomes wider, and then there are steps to go out.

As soon as he surfaced, there was a foul smell coming to his face, which almost made Zhang Qixun stumble.

When I looked closely, I was shocked that my eyes were full of dried corpses hanging in mid-air.
