Chapter 176: A Monster with a Human Head and a Snake Body
I was stunned, and it was clear that the sarcophagus in front of me was the one we had just seen.
The pry marks on it are clearly visible, and on the edge of the sarcophagus, there are two corpses lying on their stomachs, both of which have been severely injured in the head, and those two people are two of Zhao's subordinates.
Hu Erye and I didn't know what was going on, but we walked back again.
Hu Erye's face was pale, and he told me that it was likely that he had encountered a ghost hitting the wall.
I've heard about this phenomenon and can't help but shudder.
Now that our food and water are quite sufficient, Second Master Hu collected the things of those dead people, and after thinking about it, it is probably enough for us for a week, but it is not a way to stay here all the time.
Hu Erye told me that no matter what happens next, we can't be separated.
There is an evil aura in this place, and once separated, it is easy for things to happen.
I was behind Hu Erye, and I kept tugging at the corner of his clothes, looking for a long time, but I couldn't find the exit, not only that, but even the place where we came in was gone.
Now Hu Erye and I are like being thrown into a cauldron without gaps, and the torches in our hands are gradually weakening.
Hu Erye said, this is a manifestation of less and less vitality, I know that he is talking about a lack of oxygen, so I judged that this place has indeed been sealed, not to mention a week now, even two hours We can't get through it.
If we run out of oxygen, we will soon suffocate to death.
Hu Erye thought about it carefully, and he felt that the root of the problem was on the sarcophagus.
It was as if everything had changed after the sarcophagus was opened.
Team Zhao went crazy for no reason, and finally committed suicide, the exit of the cave disappeared out of thin air, and the gold artifacts were also gone, all of which seemed to have something to do with the opening of the coffin.
Hu Erye planned to fight it.
He asked me to hold the old sleeve, taught me how to pull the trigger, and told me that when he lifted the lid of the sarcophagus, whatever was inside, he would shoot him!
I don't know where I got the courage to say yes.
We cautiously walked to the sarcophagus, and Hu Erye picked up an iron rod from the ground, he said that this thing is called a crowbar, and it is similar to the Zhao team's practice.
However, Hu Erye's strength was much greater than theirs, and he pried the lid of the sarcophagus by himself.
I held the long old sleeve, and when Hu Erye pried open a corner of the sarcophagus lid, I inserted the gun barrel in, and I wanted to wait for the sarcophagus lid to open before shooting, but because the palm of my hand was trembling, my index finger pulled the trigger directly uncontrollably.
There was a muffled sound of 'bang', and I don't know what it hit, which scared Hu Erye so much that his soul almost flew.
This old sleeve is loaded with iron sand in the ammunition, no matter what is inside, it is estimated that it has been beaten beyond recognition by me.
Hu Erye shook his head helplessly, took out the old sleeve, reloaded the ammunition, and told me that this is the last bit of ammunition, and you must see it before fighting.
I nodded a few times in a daze, and Hu Erye said that he was ready, and he used his strength violently, and the sarcophagus lid was turned down with a bang.
I knew I couldn't miss the opportunity, so I hurriedly fired a shot at the contents of the coffin, this shot was accurate like I had never in my life, I blinked, and when I opened it again, I happened to see a bloody human face.
The shot I just fired hit the vital point directly.
I studied abroad, and the brain is a combination of nerves, and if you destroy the brain, no matter who it is or what beast it is, it will be completely destroyed.
couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly beckoned Hu Erye to come and see.
Hu Erye saw that I was overjoyed, and hurried over to take a look, it was okay not to look at it, but at a glance, Hu Erye was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground.
I still thought it was strange, and thought to myself, I am not afraid of this ugly face as a girl, how can he, an old hunter, be scared like this?
As soon as I turned my head, I saw a scene that I would never forget in my life.
I saw that under the human face, there was the body of a large snake, which was thicker than my waist, and in the narrow coffin, entrenched in many circles.
Loops and loops, and you can't see where the tail is.
That pure black skin is extremely uncomfortable to look at, and I even wonder, is there a black snake in it?
It felt as if several black pythons were entwined together, filling the entire sarcophagus.
Those snake-like bodies were still writhing in the sarcophagus, as if they had been injured by the old sleeve.
Second Master Hu was surprised, but after a while, there was nothing wrong.
He was only shocked visually just now that he turned pale with fright, and at this time, the old man was no longer in trouble.
We don't know what kind of monster this is, with a human face and a snake body, and in my impression, it seems that except for Nuwa, I really can't think of anyone like this.
But I'm sure the one inside isn't a snail, because he has a beard.
Hu Erye was surprised, and it could be seen that this should be an incorruptible demon body, and he didn't know who it was.
I didn't expect that the so-called treasure map handed down by my family would be like this, I really don't know how my ancestors got this map.
Could it be that the sarcophagus is the Tarot King himself?
Isn't this tarot king a monster with a snake body?
We don't have time to worry about these questions, and the most important thing now is to find an exit and get out of here.
Seeing that the master in the sarcophagus was so weird, Hu Erye immediately became murderous, picked up the scimitar, and frantically chopped the corpse inside into pulp!
I didn't know what was going on at the time, but I approved of him doing it.
We all seem to be afraid, afraid that this thing is using some magic trick to trap us here.
At this time, Hu Erye and I didn't dare to hesitate a little, and started together, seeing that the thing couldn't die anymore, so I breathed a sigh of relief, my face and body were all bloodstains of that thing, black, and there was even some fragrance.
At the same time, the torch in Hu Erye's hand also returned to its original brightness, and the surrounding gold artifacts magically reappeared.
None of us dared to touch it, and hurried to find the exit with torches.
If, after the monster died, we found a downward stone cave, and in one corner of the stone cave, we found the body of Team Xie, who was also carrying a bag of gold on his back, and a bright steel knife stuck in his chest.
It seems that they were killed by Team Zhao.
When Hu Erye saw those gold objects, it was as if he saw a devil, and he muttered a few words in his mouth, beckoning me to leave here quickly.
We walked along the winding stone cave for about a stick of incense.
Along the way, I saw a lot of dead bodies and traps and the like.
We cautiously walked around the corpses, and finally, we saw some moonlight in front of us.
Hu Erye and I were very happy, and we ran quickly in the direction of the moonlight, and we felt a cool breeze blowing in our faces, and Hu Erye and I finally walked out of the hole.
I've never been so eager for moonlit air.
As soon as I took a breath, I heard a strange sound suddenly coming from around the forest.
Second Master Hu's face turned pale at that time......
