Chapter 65: The Peculiar Gnome
Wang Wangyang's voice was obviously excited.
"Of course, you can figure it out with your toes."
After saying that, he immediately instructed me.
"Well, you put these things aside for now, and leave them alone for now. I think these things are used to untie those coffins. ”
I was stunned for a moment, and I was a little dazed.
"What were you two just running up there? I haven't asked yet, I thought it was something coming out of those coffins chasing you two. ”
Wang Wangyang actually gave me a negative answer.
"Of course not, nothing is chasing the two of us, this coffin is still calmly closed, and it is something else that is chasing us."
After speaking, Wang Wangyang's voice couldn't help but carry a little fear.
Even Cui Hao, who was on the side, began to interject.
"There's a thing, we don't know if it's called a human thing, and this thing can walk on the walls and ceilings. He suddenly rushed through the passage where we came, and then kept biting at the two of us. We kept dodging, but we barely dodged. ”
When I heard that, I suddenly remembered the footprints we had seen on the ceiling, and the handprints.
I suddenly realized that maybe this weird thing was not with us, but went to the top of us, that is, Cui Hao and their side.
I took a breath.
"No, there's a problem."
I hurriedly described the footprints and handprints we had here carefully to the two of them.
"Do you know what that means? This thing can enter and exit the upper and lower ends of the passage at will, and since he can leave his handprints and footprints underneath us, he should know where the passage between the two floors is. ”
I slapped my thigh in remorse.
If this was the case, I should have shared this situation with them earlier.
At the time, I was just afraid of scaring the two of them, and the situation was tense, so I didn't talk about it much.
But in retrospect, the decision was a mistake.
If I had said it earlier, the two of them would have kept an eye out for this little shadow as soon as possible.
It wouldn't be the way it is now.
After listening to my words, the two of them were also quite regretful.
"What then? Now that this thing has run away, it is still running the same way we came, and we really don't want to go back and chase it. ”
I thought for a moment and shook my head at them.
"No need to chase it, I'll figure out a way to see if I can bring this thing back, and if I can, then I'll chase this thing."
I'm already tired of those stone bricks on the ground, if I can bring Cui Hao and Wang Wangyang down from above, then there will be special people to deal with this thing.
I'm too lazy to do it anyway.
Instead of delving into this thing, I might as well deal with those monsters, and I can vent my anger in the bottom of my heart.
After listening to my words, there was silence above.
Cui Hao couldn't help but complain.
"Little Manye, I won't see you for a while, why are you still so hot-tempered like before."
I didn't bother to pay attention to him.
The reason why I brought that thing here was also for the safety of both of them.
Although Wang Wangyang is a genius who studies the algorithm of the institution, this guy is physically weak, and it can almost be said that he has problems with self-protection.
Although Cui Hao's skills are good, he is injured at this moment, and his movement is a problem, let alone dealing with that monster.
If I encounter that monster again, I'm afraid he won't survive at all.
So the best thing to do now is to lure that thing down, and then I'll see if I can find a way out when I go after this thing.
As long as Wang Wangyang and Cui Hao can be successfully brought down, then the two of them will be safe.
I didn't say more, turned my head to Zhang Ji, and said what I thought.
"So, you have room for regret. Because I'm going to get that thing over in a moment, you're going to be in a very dangerous situation. If you're scared, you can hide. ”
After all, Zhang Ji is also an ordinary person, and it is very weird underground, and the guy who can walk on the ceiling at will is extremely weird.
Zhang Ji's ability may not be able to successfully deal with this thing.
However, Zhang Ji rejected me directly.
"Little Man, if you drive me away, where will I go? What if I die underneath? ”
After speaking, Zhang Ji stood directly beside me.
"I have no choice but to advance and retreat with you, you give birth to me, you die I hope I can escape."
I just laughed and punched the guy.
I turned my head and took out the Shang Fang sword from my body, and struck a few swords against the wall.
"Can you hear me?"
I leaned against the wall and shouted to it, and soon Cui Hao's impatient voice came.
"I can hear you, and I can hear you very clearly, you're so noisy, if I'm down there, I'll have to give you two feet."
I ignored the guy's complaints, and continued to bang on the wall seriously, listening to the sounds outside.
Cui Hao's broken mouth kept babbling in my ear, complaining and complaining to me about the danger I had just encountered.
I wanted to shut this guy's mouth, but after I said it twice, he didn't stop, just kept talking.
I had no choice but to listen.
After all, I had to stick to the wall and listen for footsteps or something coming towards us.
Suddenly, Cui Hao's voice seemed to have a faint sound of knocking on the wall.
"Cui Hao, don't talk yet, did you knock on the wall?"
Cui Hao's voice stopped suddenly, and soon the sound of knocking on the wall became more and more obvious.
It was a different sound from the regular tapping sound of my sword pounding against the wall above.
The sound is so dense that it can even be said to be constantly approaching us.
Cui Hao's voice trembled a little.
"I didn't, Xiao Manye, is there something coming?"
I nodded and continued my tapping motion.
"Be careful, I don't know if this thing is going underneath us or above yours right now. As a precaution, you also take out your weapons to defend yourself. ”
Cui Hao answered, and finally lost his voice.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and after listening to this guy for a while, I was going to have to go crazy.
Suddenly, Zhang Ji exclaimed from the boat next to me.
"There's something."
I immediately followed the direction of his finger and looked up to the ceiling.
At this time, a rickety figure resembling an eight- or nine-year-old child was lying on the top of our wall, holding the ceiling of the wall with both hands.
"Be careful, back off."
I grabbed Zhang Ji and dragged him in front of me and stuffed him behind me.
"You dodge, watch out for this thing."
Since we are bright enough here.
The four night pearls can clearly illuminate this guy's face.
I found out that this was indeed a person, but this person was supposed to be a dwarf, completely different from a normal person.
This guy's face looks about the same as that of an eighty or ninety year-old man, but he is only the height of an eight- or nine-year-old child.
His arms were extremely old, but they were extremely powerful, and his muscles were particularly well-defined.
Although this guy looks like a person, the surface of his body is not the same as a normal person.
He was visibly unclothed, but had extremely sharp hairs growing on his body. It looks quite hard, like a hedgehog full of burrs.
But these spines are not as hard and strong as the steel needles of the hedgehog, and this thing is about the length of the knuckles, and it seems to have a certain degree of softness.
The secret hemp of these fluff distributions wrapped the guy in front of him into a pom-pom.
"What the hell is this? Is it a living person or a monster? ”
Looking at the dwarf climbing above the wall, Zhang Ji couldn't help but shrink behind me in surprise.
I shook my head, and suddenly remembered a creature.
"Zhang Ji, I probably know how this guy climbed onto the wall, have you ever seen a spider?"
Zhang Ji was stunned by what I said.
He quickly nodded at me.
"Of course, what's wrong with the spider?"
I pointed to the fluff on this guy's body.
"You see, the hairs on the top of his arms don't look like the bristles on a spider? The spider is able to crawl on walls because the fluff can create a molecular force with the wall, which then helps him to stay attached to the wall. This guy probably has the same principle as those spiders, so he can crawl on the walls like this. ”
Hearing me say this, the tension in Zhang Ji's voice immediately eased.
"I'll go, if you want to say that, this thing doesn't seem to be that dangerous."
I nodded in response.
"Yes, so you don't have to be so afraid, just follow me, he is also transformed by those ancients through some special methods, and I don't know what this thing eats underground, but apparently he has survived to this point. And the fluff on his body doesn't look like something easy to deal with. ”
As the two of us talked, the thing's gaze shifted as we kept moving.
Suddenly, it screamed in our direction and lunged at us.
I immediately raised Shang Fang's sword, aimed it at this guy's chest, and stabbed it hard.
But the thing reacted incredibly quickly, and he turned around at a very strange angle, dodging my attack.
"This thing is a big spider, isn't it? Can you still spin silk? ”
Seeing that the thin white silk thread was pulling on this thing, Zhang Ji was completely stunned in place, and his stiff hands and feet didn't dare to move.
I nodded, not caring about the fine threads.
In any case, it was made in imitation of a spider, and it didn't look like a living person or a real spider.
This thing looks dangerous, but I think there's definitely a way to subdue him.
