Chapter Eighty-Eight: Shilan Desert Tomb (7)
For some people, it's better not to see than to see.
The same is true for some weirdness.
"That's too much!"
Huo Xiang screamed, feeling that his eyes were dirty.
But at this moment, he can't just close his eyes and be blind.
Although there is a huge disparity in strength, you have to fight, and the death of becoming the nourishment of the big insect is too tragic.
Densely coiled legs encircled a short pillar with a dozen eyes in the middle.
Some of these legs were covered with long black hair, and the black armor was awe-inspiring, and some were very short, and when you looked closely, they looked like human legs, and the black and dry one was torn from which corpse.
Thanks to these legs of different lengths slowing it down, otherwise Huo Xiang would have been caught up.
When they met on a narrow road, a thigh-thick red forked strip waved a whip, and Huo Xiang raised his knife to block.
With a "bell", Huo Xiang staggered back, his whole arm was numb, and he almost lost the knife.
The strip was covered with fine scales.
And he had predicted, this thing was not something he could handle at all.
"What's it, tail?"
Huo Xiang gasped, but saw that the long strip was sticking out of the mouthparts under the multi-legged monster, and was hit back by his knife, and it was hanging in the mud and licking something.
It's like an ordinary person who accidentally burns his tongue while eating, sticks his tongue out and keeps inhaling, or desperately drinks cold water.
The blow visibly enraged it, and the monster let out a high-pitched, piercing whine as it licked the mud.
Huo Xiang suddenly knew what this red strip was.
"Good boy, this is really armed to the tongue."
"If you don't do it, what do you want to do to break into this tomb, you should stay in the temple at night and sleep well, I shouldn't run around......"
Huo Xiang shattered his thoughts, his heart was ten thousand regrets, but the movements in his hands were not slow, he threw the rekindled fire towards the head of the multi-legged monster to attract attention, and ran wildly in the opposite direction under his feet.
The multi-legged monster has lived underground for a long time, although it has many eyes, it has no effect except for being scary, it can't see the light of the fire, and it can't feel any threat from this fluttering little thing thrown by Huo Xiang, so it doesn't care, and it goes straight towards the two of them.
But in the next second, the amazing blue-green flames burst into flames.
The multi-legged monster hissed in a terrible way.
Sporadic flames splashed onto the muddy ground, and faint blue flames floated on the muddy surface, spreading rapidly.
The mud began to boil, and a more pungent black smoke rose.
"Play, play big......" Huo Xiang took the time to look back, stunned.
The fire burns quickly, and the mud is like a natural fuse.
There will probably be two endings if this continues, the oxygen in the cave will be burned out and the fire will be extinguished, but they will be suffocated to death and become a pair of suffocating ghosts.
Of course, it is more likely that the fire will burn them to death and make a pair of charcoal ghosts.
"Mi, congratulations, we don't have to be eaten."
Huo Xiang was sweating and shuttling up and down in the deep cavern, trying to find a high point.
The fire ignited faster than the multi-legged monster chased them, but fortunately, the temperature was not too high to run two steps on the flames.
"Ahem, why did it catch fire, did you do it?"
In the hustle and bustle, Wan Yanjing's eyelashes fluttered, and she asked weakly.
"Why do you ask, you couldn't have fallen asleep just now, did you?"
It's a pity, he still fought the feat of escaping death with a person on his back, and Yan Jing didn't see it at all.
"Just now, there was a disgusting long-legged monster chasing us, you were lazy in the back and even escaped the visual impact, this fire," Huo Xiang laughed embarrassedly, "It's not to fight the multi-legged monster, I just threw it away, who knew that it was flammable and explosive here." ”
"What should I do, Ah Mi, think of a way, if we don't go out again, we will become barbecue."
"What sound?" Wan Yanjing's upper and lower eyelids fought fiercely, and she barely opened her eyes.
"Sandstone? Or the cry of a multi-legged monster? Good guys, it's been a long time, it hasn't burned yet. This old guy is not only flammable and explosive, but also fire-resistant. ”
"It's not that, someone is shouting my king......" Wan Yanjing's voice stopped abruptly, her breathing was half a beat faster, and she said in a panic, "No, it's not a voice, it's a divine thought, let's run, something is going to be summoned." ”
"I want to run too, but I've turned around this hole several times, and I can't get out, auntie."
That divine thought became stronger and stronger, and Huo Xiang also felt that will.
"My King's ......"
"Wake up!"
"My King's ......"
"Wake up!"
The thought of calling each other was filled with extreme anger, and the entire cavern trembled.
"It must be the multi-legged monster, it's over, it's going to summon the dragon, and if it hits a big one, it's a bigger one, why don't we go back and strike first, and cut it down while the old monster didn't come out."
Huo Xiang shouted that he wanted to go back and cut off the multi-legged monster, but the soles of his feet went all the way forward as if they were smeared with oil, and he had no intention of returning at all.
Just kidding, he's hi, he's talking about it, he can't do it with real guns, he still has a lot of power for himself.
Being able to run for so long is thanks to this strong body, if he changes back to the white chicken physique in his previous life, where his abdominal muscles are not obvious, he will have to burp before he faces the multi-legged monster.
"Yes, who?"
"Disturb, I, Shen, sleep......"
This time it was not an ethereal thought, but a real deafening groan, rumbling from the sky.
The king may have slept for a long time and stumbled a little in his speech, but he could still hear the words clearly.
With this sound, the top of the cavern began to crumble, and bright light poured through the cracks.
Huo Xiang listened to the response of this "king", except for fear, there was not much turmoil.
Wan Yanjing, who was lying on his back, was shocked and bleeding.
"Wang" accurately positioned these "outsiders", and the skylight opened not far in front of them, and the black armor with a height of more than one foot hung upside down from the place where the hole was opened.
Although the black and gold armor is tattered, you can still see that the material is extraordinary.
The long gray and dirty hair was messily tangled, probably dirty, and even if it was hung upside down, the hairstyle did not change due to gravity.
The newcomer didn't wear a face-obscuring helmet like the corpse soldiers they had dealt with before, and his pale and blue face was exposed.
The pitch-black pupils spread to the extreme, occupying all the black parts of its eyes, which are quite ordinary when viewed from a distance, but terrifying when viewed up close.
There is no breathing and no heartbeat, just like a young corpse that has just died and has not had time to decay and expand, and his appearance is even a little delicate, which is much more exquisite than the long-legged monster, Shi Niang Xian, corpse soldiers and other old brothers.
If it hadn't hung upside down and stared at them with a pair of indifferent eyes.
