Eternal Sand Sea Chapter 49: Sacrifice
All the way to avoid the enemy's pursuit and interception finally successfully escaped to the other side of the stone bridge, when we thought we could find the exit but saw Zhao Xudong standing there, I shouted in my heart that it was not good, there must be no way out here, otherwise this kid would have fled and disappeared without a trace.
"Die and die," I muttered to myself, turning around and preparing to break the net, and slaughtering one more would be earned. The preparations were ready, but something strange happened: the lizards seemed to be separated by a glass cover, and they did not go up to the stone bridge, and crowded on the bridge like a swarm, and from time to time some were forced to the bottom of the cliff.
"It seems that this group of lizards has sensed something or has some kind of special constraint, and they will not invade each other here." Professor Yang said, wiping his misty glasses.
And no matter what the reason is, as long as they refuse to come up, we still have time to buffer, but Lao Tong looks very seriously injured and is a little in a coma. I euphemistically told Xiaowan about what might happen to Lao Tong next, mainly because I wanted her to be ready for Lao Tong to be righteous at any time, but I didn't break it bluntly, this girl has a stubborn temper, and if Lao Tong turns her back on her, maybe she will do something foolish.
Lao Tong probably knew that he couldn't last long, so he called Lao Tong over and said something, I couldn't hear what he said, the two of them have been close friends for many years, and the relationship is definitely not something that can be said in one or two sentences, I saw Chen Laogou nodding his head frequently, as if listening to some instructions.
"By the way, what about Yuan Xiaomei?" At this time, I remembered that in addition to Li Bei and Li Gou, who were still in the lower level, Yuan Xiaomei, who had a golden crested lizard before, was nowhere to be found.
I hurriedly stood on the stone bridge and glanced ahead, this was over, a person with his back up fell to the ground, surrounded by a pool of blood, from this red and blue top I recognized it was Yuan Xiaomei, the girl must have been poisoned and fainted and was bitten by a poisonous lizard.
Qiangzi also sensed that something was wrong and came to my side, when he saw Yuan Xiaomei's miserable situation, he didn't do it, turned his head to pick up the shovel and ran angrily: "Grandma, Lao Tzu chopped you all into meat pulp today!" ”
I quickly hugged him and shouted, "What are you doing! You are going to die, Comrade Xiao Yuan has already sacrificed, you sober me up! This shouting made him calm down slightly, and threw the shovel in his hand to the ground and squatted down: "I finally met a female comrade who matched my eyes, and I also carried my back, and now I went to the Hades Palace, Sun Qiangzi, Sun Qiangzi, are you born with a wife......
If anyone tells me that men don't flick when they have tears, this is just a fucking fart, it's just that the love is not deep, as long as the love is sincere, a tough guy like Qiangzi has to shed heroic tears.
I touched my pocket, but fortunately there was half a pack of spring ploughing, so I lit two and handed one of them to him: "This fate and fate are destined by heaven, it has its own number of days in it, and it can't be forced to change, and when you have a ticket, you're afraid that there will be no woman?" ”
I know that it is not appropriate to say this at this time, but in order to stabilize Qiangzi, I can only coax him like this, I hope that Yuan Xiaomei will not be serious with me if she has a spirit in the sky, I am here to save this amorous man.
"Xiao Tong, your father is dying, come and accompany him." Chen Laogou opened his mouth and shouted, as soon as these words came out, my heart sank again, just after calming the strong son, Xiao Wan was about to make waves again, when I was just about to go to Xiao Wan's side to prevent her from doing stupid things, I didn't expect her expression to look very calm, and forcibly suppressed the turbulent waves in my heart.
Lao Tong stretched out his bloody hand to hold Xiao Wan's hand, the corners of his mouth kept twitching but he couldn't speak, at this time it should be a lizard venom attack, and he couldn't even open his throat, although I didn't get along with Lao Tong for a long time, but at this time my nose was sour, and tears were rolling in my eyes.
Lao Tong also glanced at me when he was dying, I don't know what he wanted to say, but I feel that I should protect Tong Xiaowan well, at least protect her safely from this forbidden hole, I didn't speak, just grabbed his bloody hand, the corners of his mouth showed a smile, and then his hand was loosened and he couldn't help it.
Although Tong Xiaowan was pretending to be strong, she still sobbed, and Zhao Xudong walked over from the corner when she saw this, put his hand on her shoulder and said comforting words.
"Take your hands off her! Believe it or not, I chopped it! I gritted my teeth at the center of Zhao Xudong's eyebrows with my index finger and said, if it weren't for this dog offal to slip away by itself, Lao Tong might not have been injured so badly, and he might not have been injured at all.
"What the fuck have you done here? The dog is injured, Yuan Xiaomei is dead, and now even Lao Tong is gone, are you, the team leader, eating dry rice? The anger in Qiangzi's stomach was instantly detonated, and he picked up the shovel and came to scold him.
It's really a good person who doesn't live long and will leave a thousand years of scourge, Zhao Xudong saw that he was going to suffer, turned his head and walked away and entered the corner, and he also said nonsense: "Wait to get out, and see how the organization deals with you when you go out." ”
When we heard that he meant to go out, we would sue us and stretch out our hands to fight, Tong Xiaowan shouted at the top of her voice: "What's the noise, can you be quiet!" ”
This voice was like crying, and we were all stunned, and Zhao Xudong was going to repair it fiercely, and now he had to give up, and it was important to find a way out first.
After groping around on this end of the stone bridge, I didn't think it looked like the exit of the tomb at all, there were small animal skeletons scattered on the ground, and the rock wall was also covered with sharp scratches, a bit like a nest for wolf dogs.
Professor Yang was a little unfazed, he took out a thick notebook from his backpack and quickly flipped through it, and after a moment said, "It's this thing, drum-toothed snake lizard." ”
Professor Yang did see in his notebook that there were creatures like the lizard, so I asked him if he knew what they were and how he could kill them all.
Professor Yang shook his head: "The ancestor of the drum-toothed snake lizard can be traced back to the late Ice Age, and there is only one fossil in the Inner Mongolia Museum, where do you know what it is afraid of, but since it has survived until now, it means that there is no natural enemy for him underground."
Tens of thousands of years ago, it has survived until now, this survival ability is really terrifying, but I disagree with Professor Yang's remarks that there are no natural enemies in this tomb, since the sky is not afraid of the earth, why don't you dare to go up to this stone bridge, after all, we are now fish on the sword.
"Old Dog Chen, don't be silent, how to treat these ghosts," I said when I saw Old Dog Chen sitting on the ground slumped and smoking a cigarette expressionlessly.
"How to cure it? I'm not a veterinarian and I don't have deworming drugs, let alone their bosses, and they don't listen to me, so we guess we're really trapped here" As a member of the national expedition team, Lao Tong fell in the forbidden hole, obviously having a big blow to Chen Laogou, he was smoking and talking frustrated, and he had completely lost the idea of going out.
But his negativity words made me feel enlightened, although the poisonous lizard lined up next to the stone bridge is similar in shape to the first one we beaten, but they do not have a golden crown on their heads, could it be that this poisonous lizard also has a leader, and the one who gave the order to attack us?
I ran to the bridge again to look for the golden-crowned lizard, only to see it prostrate on the coffin, staring at our direction without moving, I didn't care about talking to Chen Laogou, took the shell gun from his side and handed it to Qiangzi, this distance I can't beat so I pinned my hope on Qiangzi: "You have the right eye, give the crowned beast a shot"
Hadron lifted his gun and closed one eye at the golden crown.
"Hold steady, there's a bullet left." Chen Laogou opened his mouth when he shouldn't have spoken, and when Qiangzi heard that there was only one bullet left in his head, sweat dripped down his head in an instant.
Just as Hadron was holding his breath and preparing to shoot, I put my finger against the trigger and told him to wait.
"Hell, are you kidding me? I can't shoot at all! ”
I told him that if this bullet didn't kill it, it would be us who would die, and we wouldn't even have ammunition to kill ourselves, and that this thing would be alive if its tail was broken like a gecko, and that a dead horse would be a live horse doctor, and that the bullet would be dipped in some body sacs.
I took out the loaded bullet, rolled it on the body pouch and dipped it as much as I could, and handed it to Hadron: "Either you succeed or you die." ”
Qiangzi has not yet carried such a heavy burden, and the lives of several of us are all in his thoughts, and even if we are not poisoned, we will starve to death.
He swallowed his saliva and took a stance, just waiting for the bullet in the chamber of the gun to fly out, and when the gun went off the rails, there was a sudden sound of rocks grinding behind me and Hadron.
