Chapter 5: Entering an Unknown Place
The fat man asked with doubts: "Am I dazzled?" β
I squatted down and looked at the stone figurines over and over again, and said lightly: "You are not dazzled, but this is indeed a stone figurine, so what is his principle?" β
The fat man moved his mouth: "You still care about his principle, you are really idle." β
I chuckled: "Heheβ½ you don't understand this, if I guess correctly, this stone figurine is left over from the Northern and Southern Dynasties, you look at the lines and patterns on this stone figurine, I boldly speculate that it should be the middle of the Northern and Southern Dynasties." β
The fat man's eyes lit up: "So you say there is a tomb here?" β
I nodded, "After all, generally speaking, the only purpose of making stone figurines is to show off their martial prowess."
This is to tell the world that there are as many stone figurines as there are military exploits he has.
After all, in ancient wars, honor was given according to the number of killings.
However, the corpse was too heavy to carry, so the enemy's head had to be cut off and hung around his waist to bring it back for merit.
However, these can always be kept by yourself, until the day you die when you are buried, these are the burial stone figurines, telling future generations about his great martial arts. β
"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and find it. The fat man hurried anxiously.
I smiled slyly: "Haβ½ feelings, your fat man Wang came here to find a tomb and rob a tomb!" β
The fat man's eyes rolled like wheels, and it took a while before he spoke: "I didn't, don't talk nonsense." β
I snorted and didn't want to speak, and continued to see if there was any mechanism to keep him running, however, just as I looked at the junction.
A cobra-like but not a cobra, with a layer of black scales on its back, a red belly, and a pair of fleshy wings on its back, slowly crawling out from the inside of the stone figurine.
I immediately dropped the stone figurines and sat on the ground with my butt on my buttocks, looking at this little guy, who also stood up, spitting out snake letters and accumulating strength.
This is the fat man, but he was very surprised and said: ", flying snake crown snake, I thought this thing was just recorded in the Gonzo record, but I didn't expect it to really exist." β
I looked at him several times with a zigzag on my forehead, but as if I hadn't seen it, the fat man continued, "Don't move."
This thing is highly venomous, and if bitten, the venom will spread all over the body in two minutes.
There will be black spots all over the body, protruding eyes, and the process is extremely painful, and until he dies, he is still convulsing, foaming at the mouth and dying. β
Listening to the fat man's explanation, I scolded my mother angrily: "Why are you still watching the play, why are you still explaining so much to me, don't you see that I am locked by this guy, Wang Defa." β
Just as I was greeting the fat man in my heart, I saw the fat man carefully move behind me and slowly put his hands into my backpack.
Just when I thought this guy was trying to take my backpack, he dragged me backwards slowly, but slowly, slowly.
However, the crowned snake was also approaching, and I looked into its eyes, not daring to blink a moment, and quietly reached for the dagger at my knee.
Slowly pulled out the dagger, the dagger cold light was particularly cold in the moonlight, it seemed to feel the cold, stopped moving, and arched its body back.
I didn't dare to relax in the slightest, and the fat man kept an eye on its every move, still, not forgetting to drag me back.
Suddenly, the moment the fleshy wings on its back flickered, it opened its bloody mouth and flew towards me, and I quickly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it in the head.
The cold light crossed the moonlit night, and with the sound of "bang", the corpse of the crown snake was separated, some blood splashed on my face, and the fat man dragged me away quickly, and the two of us sat on the ground and stirred up dust.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and after a while, I slowly stood up, stretched out my hand to the fat man, and the fat man glanced at the hand that was stretched out in front of him, and then looked up at me.
I nodded with a gentle smile, and the fat man smiled and grabbed my hand, and the two big hands were clasped together, and I pulled him up with all my might.
He patted the dust off his body, and I picked up the dagger and approached the crown snake, flicking the upper body that was still moving, but the fat man took out a tissue and handed it to me.
I took it and looked at the snake and wiped the blood away, but before I could study it, I heard a low-frequency "chirp" sound.
The fat man instantly shouted: "No, run, it's calling for companions." β
I rubbed myself to my feet, and ran away with the fat man in one direction, but it seemed that it was too late, and the fat man and I had not yet run two steps.
Then we saw three crowned snakes appear in front of us, and we retreated, turned and ran backwards, and a few more appeared on our left, and a few more on our right.
I cursed, "Damn, why did you come so fast." β
We ran frantically, but after running for a while, I realized that something was wrong, and I said to the fat man, "Oh no, they seem to be trying to drive us in one direction." β
The fat man looked at me in disbelief, but saw my expression that was not a joke: "Damn, they still know the art of war?" Siege the teacher? β
I shook my head solemnly, "It probably doesn't seem that simple to me. β
The fat man was a little at a loss and asked, "Then what do you say we should do?" β
I thought for a while: "You can only take one step at a time, and then you can escape first." β
The fat man didn't seem to have any other good ideas, so he could only agree with me, and after running for a long time, we ran into a low-lying mountain road with two mountains.
I looked at the terrain and said to myself, "Oh no, as I said, if there are a large number of crowned snakes jumping down suddenly, it will be troublesome." β
The fat man saw my anxiety and asked, "What's wrong?" This expression. β
I pointed to the terrain and said, "What do you say, if a large number of crowned snakes suddenly come out and jump down at us on the cliffs on both sides, what do you think we should do?" β
The fat man followed my fingers and looked at the terrain, and complained, ",, if this is really like what you say, I will only die." β
As soon as the fat man's voice fell, sure enough, there were dense rows of crowned snakes on the cliffs on both sides, and I scolded: "! That's true. β
The fat man swallowed his saliva, his eyes constantly scanning: "What should I do?" β
I gritted my teeth and said, "Fight!" β
The fat man was also mobilized by me, pulled out the dagger, and ran vigilantly, I was not to be outdone, the cold light was already in my hand.
Suddenly, a crowned snake could not hold back and lunged at me, and I quickly slid the dagger, once again splattered with blood.
When the other members saw my performance, they were all waiting for an opportunity, ready to make a move, but waiting for the right moment.
Then three more could not hold it back, and pounced on us, and we swung our daggers again, and the cold light shone through the moonlight, and solved it with a deep chill.
The others were no longer patient, and they all moved, pounced from all directions, and we could only dodge and slide the daggers, accompanied by neither of us who knew how many crowned snakes we had beheaded.
Our faces, clothes, pants, and shoes were bright red one after another, and we waved our daggers like machines.
The two of us also went from running to standing back-to-back, constantly rotating and changing positions to observe the inadequacy of these comers.
Suddenly, three snakes came at me in three directions, and I was so frightened that I swung my dagger and slashed the striker, but there was nothing I could do about the center and the rear.
I could only watch them approach, and when I closed my eyes and waited to die, I opened my eyes to see the sound of a hunting wind.
I found that Xie Chenjun appeared in front of me and waved his Tang Heng knife, and he eliminated the two center and rear striker with one sword.
Just when I was overjoyed in my heart, I saw Xie Chenjun suddenly change the knife edge and slash at his palm, accompanied by a touch of bright red overflowing from his palm.
Xie Chenjun used this bright red to draw a semicircle in front of the three of us, turned his head to me and the fat man and said, "Hurry up, there is a hole in front." β
After speaking, Xie Chenjun took the lead in running, and the fat man and I looked at the crowned snakes that were still very aggressive towards us just now, as if they had encountered something that scared them, and they didn't dare to take half a step forward.
Looking at the strange scene, although curious, the fat man and I didn't delve too deeply, turned around and followed Xie Chenjun's pace and ran towards the entrance of the cave.
Just when we thought we were about to escape, we saw an endless array of strange stones.
The fat man and I were full of strange eyes, and while observing, we followed Xie Chenjun's steps, and walked a few steps forward, the ground was a little slippery, and a small river appeared in front of us after a while.
