Chapter 182: Gathering

Dong Li's heart chuckled for a moment, indeed, how could there be no sound in the flow of water?

Just now she felt a little uneasy in her heart, and at first she didn't know what was going on, and she felt that she was suspicious, but it turned out to be like this: "Don't touch this water first, let's break a branch and take a look, there are birds and birds in this book, but there is nothing in this river water, there are no fish and shrimp, how can there be no aquatic plants." ”

Nangong Xiao thought so, and went to break a branch and cautiously poked into the river.

There was no reaction, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, maybe they were too suspicious, but they didn't dare to drink this water, Nangong Xiao casually threw the branch aside, but they heard a sneering sound in their ears, and the two of them looked over when they heard the sound, but saw that the branch that was fine just now had disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and white smoke came out repeatedly, and the smell was very unpleasant.

There was no reaction in the river, but as soon as I left the river, it immediately became like this. The husband and wife glanced at each other, their brows furrowed, this place is really dangerous, if you are not careful, I am afraid that your life will be in danger.

The two of them were frightened by this, and suddenly forgot all about what they were tired and hungry, and walked upstream along the river, the river was damp, and there were many insects, but fortunately, the lock had been protected, and the two of them walked up unharmed, and the more they walked, the more lush the surrounding vegetation became, but there were no birds frolicking in the trees, and the surroundings became quieter and quieter.

There was finally a trace of a stone wall in front of them, and the river water flowed out of it, looking like a majestic palace wall, and the two of them quickened their pace, and soon reached the bottom of the wall.

Along the river in, it was very dark inside, Nangong Xiao casually took out the fire fold from his arms, lit it, the faint firelight illuminated the scene in front of him, the two of them carefully walked forward against the wall, touched the oil lamp and other objects on the light, and soon the originally dark room became bright, and the mottled murals on the wall were also clearly displayed in front of the two people.

Nangong Xiao blew out the fire, took a torch from the wall casually, lit it and led the east fence to continue walking inside, studying the murals on the wall as he walked, hoping to find some clues from above to solve the current dilemma. The murals on the wall are very finely painted, each person is depicted differently, with different expressions, wearing very simple clothes, like people in ancient times, most of them are bare-chested, with rough faces, all of them are doing some hunting, gathering crops, holding poorly made harpoons, and even men and women hugging each other** scene, Dong Li couldn't help blushing after just looking at it, and the painting was extremely bold, as if he felt that this kind of thing did not need to be concealed, but a very sacred thing, It needs to be worshipped.

Nangong Xiao also saw it, and was surprised, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he squeezed his eyebrows at Dongli: "What's so embarrassing, look, our ancestors are so enthusiastic and unrestrained, this man and woman Dunlun is a major event in giving birth to children, it is a matter of inheritance, this is the most sacred thing in the eyes of many tribal people, why are you blushing?" ”

Dong Liang sped up and floated away from him, and if he didn't walk away, the faceless and skinless guy who knows what else he would say, Nangong Xiao laughed in the back, but the whole cave seemed to be shocked by his laughter, and the echoes were far from endless, shaking him so much that he couldn't help but reach out and cover his ears, frowning.

"Who's there?" Before the echo stopped, a man's voice came from inside, and the ears of both people were full: "Who's there...... There...... The sound of "...... there" reverberated incessantly.

Is there anyone here? The two of them were pleasantly surprised, thinking about the few people who came in, the man who might appear here at this time should be Zuo Zhan, right? There are many words without mistakes, Nangong Xiao raised his anger and shouted: "Is it Zuo Zhan?" I'm Nangong Xiao."

While shouting, the two of them quickened their pace, and walked quickly in the direction where the sound came, and it seemed that they also accelerated their pace after hearing the movement.

"Why did you come down too?" Zuo Zhan was the first to fall, and he didn't know that several of them jumped down at all, and he was very surprised to see them: "Why don't you see them?" ”

"We're here, of course, because I can't let go of you, brother, so how about jumping down? Interesting enough, right? There are not many words" Nangong Xiao slapped Zuo Zhan on the shoulder heavily, and muttered in his ear by the way: "I said, you didn't do anything to be sorry for your brother, right?" There are no mistakes, there are many words, and that is my daughter-in-law. ”

Zuo Zhan's face turned red, half complaining and half ashamed: "How can I be such an unreasonable person, that body is from the east fence, I feel weird when I look at it." He also wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Ruchu, but when he saw that face, it was his brother's daughter-in-law, how did he look at it and feel weird.

Nangong Xiao nodded with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder: "I knew you were interesting, don't worry, I will definitely help you, sooner or later, you will get the beauty back." ”

Zuo Zhan's face turned red, and he turned his head slightly to look at Ruchu, with a shy affection on his face.

Dong Liang automatically floated to Ruchu's side, and it was undoubtedly a very novel thing to look at a person who was exactly like himself: "How did you get here?" The two of us followed, but we didn't see you, and I thought something had gone wrong and didn't fall together, so you had already come in first. ”

"We're in it when we fall." But it was said at the beginning, "When we fell, we fell into an open-air stone chamber, and we were looking for a way along the river when we heard your voices." ”

Sure enough, it didn't fall in one place, in the gap between the two women's talking, the two men who were in contact with each other were still talking about something, and they didn't notice that something was approaching them silently, Nangong Xiao still had the protection under the lock cloth, and the thing that slipped out secretly slowly approached Zuo Zhan.

A small thing of the same color as the stone slid down from the stone wall, and gently put it on Zuo Zhan's shoulder, he felt it, and thought it was Nangong Xiao patting himself, frowned: "I told you that I didn't do anything, and you still can't finish shooting, what do you mean?" Don't believe me? ”

Nangong Xiao hugged his arms with both hands, and was stunned when he heard this: "I didn't shoot you?" I'm here with both hands," said his eyes, and his eyes had already seen Zuo Zhan's shoulder, and there was something lying on it, long strips, like snakes: "What is that?" Don't move, I'll pick it off, don't be poisonous. ”

said that this hand took out the sword, held it in his hand and looked at the gray-white thing, and saw that a sword stabbed quickly, that thing was also alert, and suddenly ran towards Nangong Xiao's sword-holding hand, but it was extremely fierce.

Nangong Xiao's wrist flicked, and the sword spilled a sword flower, blocking the thing back, and Zuo Zhan slashed it with a sword in the back, after all, he killed the strange thing under the sword.

The two men leaned over to watch, and the thing on the ground that was broken in two did not die immediately, and writhed on the ground for a while before it stopped moving.

The two women also walked over, and the east fence looked at the thing that the animal was not like an animal, the plant was not like a plant, the color of the gray-white stone wall, with limbs like gecko, with suction cups on the paws, but there were many fine roots growing under the body, tangled, and looking particularly strange.

As soon as he saw it, he called out the name of this thing: "Ji Ping." ”

"What's that?" Higashi was curious, is this thing an animal or a plant?

"It's a parasitic thing, not very rare, but it's annoying." As at the beginning, a flame burned the sinister on the ground to ashes: "It is very troublesome to be bitten by it, and its teeth are poisonous, which will paralyze people's feelings, so that you will not feel pain, and you will not be able to detect that you have been bitten." Then it will drain its young eggs into the wound, and when the eggs come out of the shell, it will treat the person as a parasitic thing, and will not come out until the person is eaten empty, looking for the next target. ”

Dong Li only felt cold all over, this thing is so evil, it actually wants to lay eggs and grow in the human body, disgusting and terrifying.

"Is there any way to deal with them?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Zuo Zhan frowned, how could there be such a disgusting thing: "I don't know if there is anything else in this place." ”

"Why haven't I heard of this thing?" Nangong Xiao also felt disgusted, if there was such a vicious thing in the world, I am afraid that people would already be panicked, and it was impossible to be so nameless.

"This thing was a creature from a long time ago, and we didn't see it much anymore." Ru's explanation immediately made them understand that it was not that they were alone, but that this thing had long disappeared with time: "A long time ago, there was a big incident in the country, which almost emptied the people of a tribe, and then caused everyone to be afraid of this thing, and finally it was destroyed by the concerted efforts of others." ”

After speaking, he casually added a protective layer similar to Nangong Xiao's body to Zuo Zhan's body: "That's fine, Dongli is a soul, they can't hurt you." "As for herself, those things don't dare come near her at all.

The appearance of the Ji Qi made those people more vigilant in their hearts, I don't know how many years ago the façade of the building, how many unpredictable dangers were still waiting for them.

"To be on the safe side, it's better not to stay too far away from me." Ruchu frowned and looked around, time had passed, and she couldn't figure out if anything had happened to this place over the years, whether there would be some unknown creatures.
