Volume 4: Snake Island Horror Chapter 014 Crazy Rat
"Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?" I said lightly.
Wan Dingyou's eyes rolled, looked at the huge wooden barrel, and said slowly: "I look at the wooden barrel a little strangely. ”
The thin monkey was stunned for a moment, and then said impatiently: "Ghost Daoist, you are too thin, what can be strange about a wooden barrel?" So saying, he took a big stride to the barrel, and clasped his hands on both sides of the barrel, only to feel a chill come from the barrel.
The thin monkey shuddered involuntarily, frowned, and said, "It's really a little strange, this barrel is so cold." As he spoke, he lifted the barrel upward.
Although this thin monkey looks lean, he has martial arts, and his arms are waving, I am afraid that he will not have the strength of hundreds of catties, who knows that he did not mention it this time.
He was stunned again, put down his hand, touched his nose, and muttered, "This barrel is really strange." He looked at the barrel carefully, and when he saw it, he saw some doorways.
After hearing this, the ghost Taoist also put a hand on the wooden barrel and stroked it carefully. After a moment, he raised his head and said loudly, "This barrel doesn't seem to be an ordinary barrel. ”
Xu Miaofeng frowned, stretched out her hand and touched the wooden barrel, and then said slowly: "Why is this wooden barrel so cold?" ”
My eyes flashed, and I walked over slowly, and then reached out to touch it. After a while, he said slowly: "This barrel is indeed a wooden barrel, but the wood used in this barrel is not ordinary wood, but ironwood produced under the big snow peak of West Kunlun Mountain. ”
Everyone was stunned, and they all said in unison: "Tiemu? ”
I said in a deep voice, "Yes, it's Ironwood. This ironwood grows slowly, it takes thousands of years to grow a few feet, and the wood is dense, hard as iron, and ordinary swords cut on it only leave a white mark, so people call it ironwood. At this point, I paused and said, "Looking at the barrel placed on the ground and not moving, it must have been fixed to the floor of this burial chamber with something, and only by triggering the mechanism on this barrel can the barrel be opened." ”
My eyes swept over the thin monkey, Wan Dingyou, and Xu Miaofeng one by one, and said slowly: "Who is going to open the mechanism on this wooden barrel?" ”
Xu Miaofeng didn't say a word and lowered her head.
The thin monkey had no expression on his face, and he didn't say a word.
The ghost Taoist was quite embarrassed and smiled. These people all know that if there is a mechanism in this barrel, then triggering the mechanism on this barrel will inevitably lead to death, and the person who opens the mechanism on this barrel will bear the brunt, and all the ambushes will call on the person who opened the mechanism.
Who is willing to take this risk?
I snorted in my nose when I saw that no one was coming forward.
This hum sounded, and everyone's hearts jumped with it.
Wan Dingyou knew that he and I were a little unhappy, now there are only four of us left, although the thin monkey and him are in a group, but Xu Miaofeng is obviously more inclined to me, maybe I am displeased, so I will turn my face, and then the thin monkey may be used as a backing for him, and there is no place to bury him.
Thinking about this clearly, he immediately smiled at me and said, "Li Rui, I think it's better for us to hide behind more than ten zhang, and then use the iron chain in your hand to trigger the mechanism on this barrel, wouldn't it be good?" Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to be able to open the barrel without worrying about the mechanism in the barrel shooting everyone? ”
I snorted and said slowly, "Just do as you say." ”
The onlookers next to him breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated to the side.
I also stepped back a few feet, and then waved the chain in my left hand. I only heard the sound of the wind in the tomb where the iron chain was rolled, and with a loud bang, the black iron chain had already smashed firmly on the iron barrel.
The iron barrel only made a loud noise, and there was no change in the slightest.
My brow furrowed, and the chain in my hand smashed against the barrel more than ten times in succession, one by one.
Under this series of critical blows, the iron barrel finally couldn't bear it, and it shattered with a bang, and everyone couldn't help but applaud in unison.
"Li Rui, this iron wood is so hard, it was still smashed open by you with the strength of your arm, admire and admire." The skinny monkey immediately complimented.
"Don't be modest, I saw that you just made two strokes, quite a shadow of a fist, you came, maybe faster than me to break."
The thin monkey was stunned for a moment, touched his head, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to see it." ”
When the barrel shattered, everyone looked into the barrel.
At this glance, everyone was stunned again.
I saw a gray-haired mouse squatting in the barrel that was trembling with fright, and where was there any trace of anyone except the gray mouse?
The four of them looked at the gray-haired mouse with eight eyes in unison.
The faces of the thin monkey and Wan Dingyou slowly changed color, and the ghost Taoist wondered: "Thin monkey, what's wrong?" ”
There was a hint of fear in the thin monkey's eyes and said, "This, this can't be the rat king on Snake Island, right?" ”
Before this sentence was finished, the ghost Taoist's face also changed color, "It is said that there are many rats on Snake Island in addition to snakes, but I didn't expect that there would be such a big mouse." ”
The mouse kept shaking, and as it shook, the dust on its body gradually fell, revealing a layer of white hair on its body.
I saw the three of them change color on their faces, and I knew something was wrong, and immediately asked, "Is there anything strange about this mouse?" ”
The thin monkey said in a deep voice: "Li Rui, do you know, the rats on this snake island are all essences, I think we should withdraw quickly, this white-haired mouse is a rat king, as long as this white-haired mouse gives an order, a large number of rats will be attracted underground." Those rats are extremely vicious, and we are afraid that we will want to-" At this point, I couldn't go on.
Although there is indeed a "snake and mouse dispute" on Snake Island every year, it is not at all like what the boat boss Lao Chen said, what snakes eat rats for half a year, rats eat snakes for half a year, Wang Mengyao has already given me popular science, the real situation is just a lose-lose situation.
"Who did you listen to?" I snorted.
"Fishermen." "The fishermen around here know it!" ”
Hearing him say this, I knew in my heart, and when I saw them so scared, I felt even more contempt in my heart, and said lightly on my face: "It's just a mouse, is it so terrifying?" Wouldn't it be dangerous to kill it? With that, as soon as his left hand was raised, the swarthy iron chain was drawn towards the white-haired rat king like a big python.
This outbreak broke out without the slightest warning. The crowd didn't realize until the chain was waved, but it was too late.
The thin monkey was so anxious that he shouted, "I can't help it." ”
He knew that as long as this chain could not hit the white-haired rat king, and the white-haired rat king squeaked, it would immediately attract a large number of rats, and at that time, all of us would be wiped out.
It's just too late.
The thin monkey only secretly prayed in his heart that the chain in my hand would kill the white-haired rat king under the chain before he could make a sound.
I saw the chains in my hands swept away like a wind.
The white-haired rat king, who was trembling to himself, seemed to know that the situation was not good, and hurriedly flashed to the side, then opened his mouth and squeaked.
The one thing the skinny monkey feared the most happened - the chain in my hand swept out again and smashed towards the white-haired rat king.
The white-haired rat king squeaked incessantly, and his body rushed forward, straight to my crotch.
The chain in my hand had already hit the outside, and now I saw that the white-haired rat king had been released again. The chain didn't have time to fight back, and immediately raised his left foot and stomped down on the white-haired rat king.
This time he was impartial, and he was stepping on the tail of the white-haired rat king.
The white-haired rat king squeaked again, struggled hard, and broke the rat's tail, and ran through my crotch towards the exit of the tomb.
When I saw that the white-haired rat king had escaped, I didn't care, and immediately rushed to the direction where the iron barrel was. Good to check where this iron barrel is, what is strange.
As soon as I moved, I heard footsteps behind me, but the footsteps behind me were heading towards the outside of the cemetery.
I hurriedly stopped, turned around, and looked ahead. I saw that the thin monkey and Wan Dingyou were moving their own steps and walking towards the outside of the tomb.
Although the two of them walked, the speed was very fast. When they saw me turn around, they let go of their steps and ran away without their lives.
I was stunned and shouted, "What are you doing? ”
The two of them didn't seem to hear it, but just followed behind the white-haired rat king and ran away all the way.
I frowned, I was angry in my heart, and I was about to speak, when I suddenly saw that the two people were like seeing ghosts, and they stopped walking, and Xu Miaofeng, who had not escaped, also slowly retreated backwards at this time.
I was even more surprised, and a pair of eyes swept between the crowds and looked at the door of the tomb. I saw that the white-haired rat king had already stopped, and was squatting at the door of the tomb, with a pair of small eyes rolling around.
The white-haired rat king was no longer trembling, as if he had no fear.
I was even more stunned, and at this moment, I only heard the sound of a strange search not far away, as if something was rushing in. In the blink of an eye, a swarm of gray-haired rats poured out of the graveyard.
Those gray-haired rats rushed to the white-haired rat king's side, stood still, and stared at everyone one by one.
Thin monkeys, ghost people, Xu Miaofeng saw these gray rats coming in at this time, and his face was as white as earth for a while.
I looked at these gray rats, and I was also secretly furious in my heart, and said in my heart: "Could it be that this white-haired rat king can really give orders and let these gray rats gather here?" It's just that it's too fast. ”
The thin monkey and the others also secretly complained: "The white-haired rat king squeaked for a while, and these gray rats came, could it be that these gray rats were lying in ambush around this tomb?" This is too incredible. ”
Before everyone had time to think about how to respond, the white-haired rat king suddenly squeaked a few times, followed by those gray rats, and rushed up, showing Bai Sensen's teeth, and pounced on everyone.
Everyone has constricted pupils, and it is not good to secretly call.
I knew that I had also made the same mistake as Lu Liang, too carefully, but this was not the time to blame myself, and I had to find a way to repel these rats, so I said loudly: "It's a good time." The chain in his left hand pulled and dragged forward.
When the iron chain was swept away, a strong wind swept up, and dozens of gray rats that rushed to the front flew up, hitting the stone wall of the tomb on one side, and immediately the flesh and blood were blurred, and they died.
As soon as these dozens of gray rats died, the gray rats behind them rushed forward as if they were crazy, and they were not afraid of death, and rushed straight towards me.
