Chapter 202: The Buried Ancient City
Lin Yan has a principle, that is, within the scope of his own strength, there are absolutely no hidden dangers! This sandworm is not a good stubble in the first place, and it has eaten so many people, so Lin Yan has no psychological burden to kill it.
But when this thing saw that it couldn't run away, it actually started to drill into the sand. Lin Yan said secretly:
"Not good!" This is a sandworm's specialty, once you let it go into the sand, you can't catch it!
Saying that it was too late, Lin Yan took out the rope from his small cloth pocket, and then flicked it fiercely, and the iron flying claws accurately caught the sandworm's body.
But before Lin Yan could be happy, a huge force came from the rope, and he was also stumbled forward.
"This guy has a lot of strength!" Lin Yan sighed in surprise, and then directly poured his vitality into his arms, and wrestled with the sandworm.
But at this time, the sandworm was scared by Lin Yan, and the power that erupted between life and death should not be underestimated, after all, it didn't want to die!
Both sides are battling, but it's the ropes that are under pressure. This rope is not a treasure after all, it is just an ordinary rope, but it has been subjected to pressure that its quality should not bear.
Seeing that he was almost at the limit, Lin Yan was also very anxious.
"Once this rope breaks, won't this guy just run? No, we have to find a way! Lin Yan thought so, but he didn't dare to relax his hands at all.
Suddenly, as if he had an idea, he pulled the rope and jumped onto the sandworm's back.
"Since I can't pull you, I'll let you run and see how long you can run!" At this time, the rope he was holding in his hand seemed to have become a rein, and with the end of the wrestling between one person and one insect, the pressure on the rope plummeted, and it would not face the end of breaking.
As soon as Lin Yan retracted his strength, the sandworm couldn't retract his strength, so he rushed out directly, startling Lin Yan a lot, and after reacting, he quickly grabbed the rope in his hand, well, it's the reins at this moment!
The sandworm naturally sensed the human on his back, and the gesture of being used as a mount made it feel humiliated.
Moreover, this human is too threatening to himself, and he must be quickly eliminated. So the sandworm kept twisting its body all the time, jumping up and down and taking Lin Yan into the distance.
During this period, it wanted to sneak into the sand, but as soon as it had this intention, Lin Yan stabbed it with a knife, and if it didn't stop, it kept stabbing, and it hurt so much that it really lost its temper.
"Who is this? It's okay to be idle, right, you can't get along with me as a worm, is it necessary? ”
"Yes, I admit that I wanted to eat you before, but didn't I eat it? Why, I can't let you run now, it's too domineering! At this time, the sandworm was depressed, but he didn't dare to disobey Lin Yan and forcibly take him down, after all, it really hurt!
Fortunately, as long as he doesn't dive, no matter how he jumps up and down, this guy won't care.
The sandworm just hopes that this human will get tired of playing and leave quickly, so let's do it and let go of this poor little worm!
So, a spectacle appeared in the long yellow sand! A giant sandworm scurled forward, and on its back stood a human teenager, who had a finger on the reins.
Come in this
There are not a few disciples who participated in the trial in the "Sand Tomb", and Lin Yan also met several groups of people during the period, but the speed of the sandworm under him was too fast, and the figure in front of him flashed, so that he didn't see it clearly, but he didn't know it.
He thought so calmly, but those people didn't think so, and they were shocked at the time!
"I'll go, who is this? So fierce! ”
"What the hell is that monster he's riding? It looks like a worm! ”
"Have you ever seen such a big bug? I'm afraid this isn't the ancestor of the bugs! ”
"Awesome! Giant Worm Knight, this is Giant Worm Knight! ”
"......" All the people who saw Lin Yan riding insects all kinds of exclamations, and even gave him one
The nickname of "Giant Bug Knight", I just don't know if he likes it or not. However, Lin Yan couldn't take care of them, because he found that the physical strength of this sandworm was too good!
Originally, he thought that this guy would be bored after running for a while, but when the time came, he would slaughter it, and the matter would be over!
But who would have thought that this guy would be knocked out
"Five stone scatter", so energetic, I can't stop at all! If it goes on like this, who knows how long it will run?
Although riding this guy is much faster than walking on his own, it is out of control! Jumping up and down is like a convulsion, and the ride experience is not good at all!
Originally, Lin Yan thought that it was reluctant to treat this guy as a mount in terms of speed, although it was a bit ugly.
But after the actual ride, Lin Yan decisively dispelled this idea that he thought was not very reliable, and thought:
"It's better to slaughter it!" But this sandworm has rough skin and thick flesh, and it won't be able to kill it for a while! Just when Lin Yan was worried, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he seemed to start spinning!
He was startled, then looked down sharply, and found that it was not him who was spinning, but the sandworm beneath him. At this time, the latter is obviously also a little blindsided, and he doesn't know what happened.
Lin Yan watched the yellow sand around him slowly spinning and sinking, and his heart sank, although he had not seen it with his own eyes, but he had also learned about this phenomenon in books in the academy before, this is-
"Vortex quicksand"! It's a unique phenomenon that only happens in the desert, and it's a desperate death trap!
As the name suggests, "quicksand" is flowing sand. Sand is very common in deserts, but normal sand does not move.
Unlike quicksand, it is like water, it will be slow
Flow. On weekdays, on the surface, the area where the quicksand is located is no different from ordinary sand.
However, as soon as an object falls on it, the quicksand is disturbed, and the fragile balance is quickly disrupted.
Next, the surface of the quicksand is rapid
"Liquefaction", the surface layer of sand becomes very soft, and the shallow layer of sand also runs down, which makes the objects that fall on it sink rapidly.
But that's just ordinary quicksand, and
The "Vortex Quicksand" also spun faster as it sank, accelerating the speed at which the object sank, making it impossible to escape.
And Lin Yan encountered this situation at the moment, just now the sandworm was running vigorously, and he definitely didn't notice the situation here, as for Lin Yan, he was also busy thinking about how to kill the big insect under his feet, feeling that it had been jumping around, so naturally he didn't pay attention.
By the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late, because the weight of the object was directly proportional to the speed at which it was diving.
And the size of the sandworm is so big, the weight can't be light, in
Under the accelerated dive of the "Vortex Quicksand", there was not much time left for Lin Yan to react. The sandworms under his feet were swallowed up by the quicksand before they could struggle, and Lin Yan's feet also fell into the quicksand.
Once a person falls into quicksand, it is impossible to break free even if he uses several times more strength than usual. Because as the human body falls, the density of the sand increases, and this will put a lot of pressure on the human body, making it difficult for people to exert their strength.
If an adult of a standard weight were caught in the middle of it and tried to pull him out, he would be able to lift several elephants!
The key is that even if he has the power to pull him out of the quicksand, he doesn't dare to do it easily, because if he grabs someone in the quicksand, if he is not careful, he will be stressed by two phases, and his bones will be broken!
And what Lin Yan is encountering now is not an ordinary quicksand, under the accelerated rotation, the pulling force in the quicksand is extremely terrifying, if he rashly exerts a force in the opposite direction at this time, Lin Yan is worried that even with the tenacity of his body, he will not be able to support it.
In the midst of this hesitation, the quicksand spun faster and faster, and then completely engulfed Lin Yan's body, and then returned to calm, as if nothing had happened here.
I don't know how long it has been, when Lin Yan opened his eyes again, he found that there was darkness all around, and thought:
"Could it be that I really hung up and died in the quicksand? That's too casual, isn't it? He struggled to his feet, feeling the pain all over his body, the after-effects of the quicksand squeezing.
Thanks to his physical fitness, which is different from ordinary people, if it were an ordinary person, he would have been squeezed into a mess of meat at this moment!
Lin Yan carefully discerned the surroundings and found that it was really dark, only some sporadic weird lights flickering in a vague way, like ghost fire.
"Could it be that this is the Netherworld?" He had heard the old man say that after a person died, he would be dragged to the underworld by the soul seducer.
Good people can be reincarnated and re-enter the six realms of reincarnation; And those who do evil in the mortal world will be tortured, and they may never have the chance to be reborn again for eternity.
Although he is not a wicked person, he also has a lot of blood on his hands, at least he is not related to a pure good person.
Thinking of this, Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a chill, and said in his heart:
"Am I going to be punished too?" While Lin Yan was thinking wildly, Qiu Lao's voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
"Don't worry, boy, you're not dead yet!" Lin Yan subconsciously asked:
"Qiu Lao?" Then he took a closer look at his condition, well, and the heartbeat and pulse, which these dead people don't have.
Even so, he was relieved for a short time. But then the doubts came again, and Lin Yan asked:
"Where is this?" Since it's not a netherworld mansion, why is it so dark here, it looks weird!
Qiu Lao replied:
"It should be under the quicksand just now." Lin Yan didn't expect that it would be full of death threats
Under the "whirlpool quicksand", there is such a place hidden, shouldn't there be sand under the quicksand?
Anyway, I can't figure it out at this time, so Lin Yan won't think about it anymore, and the top priority is to explore this place first.
Strangely, where did the sandworm that was sucked in with him go? If it hadn't died, this quicksand had saved it by mistake, where could it be reasonable?
Lin Yan stepped around and touched it, and finally saw a relatively large firelight in the distance, which was formed by some sporadic firelight coming together.
Human beings instinctively reject darkness and tend to light, so Lin Yan, like most humans, walked towards the land of fire.
When he finally got closer, he stood there in shock. It's not that he hasn't seen the world, it's because the scene in front of him is too shocking!
In front of him was an ancient city, and the fire he had seen before was just the light of the houses.
An ancient city buried under yellow sand? Don't you dare to be a little more magical!
