Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Corpse Insects

At present, except for my accident, only my grandfather who is still in Beijing can control the soul-calling banner, but... I didn't have time to think about it, so I felt anxious and couldn't help shouting: "Xu Xu, help me!" In fact, without my telling, Xu Xu had already held the bronze mirror in his hand, and shouted: "Boss Yuan, pay attention..." Before he finished speaking, the bronze mirror suddenly emitted a dazzling white light. It slowly floated into my hands, but at this moment, I heard a faint sigh clearly in my ears—desolate and helpless... go go go go!Xu Xu saw that I had already controlled the Kaiyang Soul Calling Banner, and hurriedly urged me to leave quickly. I also knew that the situation was critical, so I couldn't allow me to think too much, so he hurriedly pulled the log and ran towards the door of the tomb without touching the ground. , but we had just walked a few steps, and we were suddenly stunned—the thick stone door of the tomb that could have been opened was now tightly closed.

what to do?Xu Xu was obviously in a hurry. nonsense!I cursed inwardly, of course I opened the door, the important thing is to walk quickly, the green dragon on the wall behind me was still roaring, and kept spitting out countless black objects from its mouth... I didn't care about thinking too much, so I went Pushing the door, who knows that the stone door opened easily just now, but at this time it can't be opened for anything, Xu Xu and Mu Mu also came to help, pushed it a few times, but it didn't move. Seeing that the stone door could not be opened, I was very anxious and was busy trying to think of a way, when suddenly Mu Mu shouted: "Not good..."

I lowered my head and looked down. I don't know when, countless black corpse insects crawled over densely - it turned out that all the corpses spit out from Qinglong's mouth were black corpse insects. I took a closer look and saw the appearance of these corpse insects. It was exactly the same as the corpse worms in the sacrificial pit I just saw below, with black bodies and scarlet hooks on both ends, twisting their bodies in groups, extremely ugly. Seeing those ugly corpse worms crawling towards us mighty and mighty, and the terrible thing is - Qinglong is still roaring and spitting out corpse worms...

I can't guarantee that these corpse worms only eat the rotting bodies of the dead, and they bite the living?Thinking about it makes me feel sick. Being killed by such a bug would be better than simply ending one's life with a straight sword. When a person is in a crisis, his brain seems to be particularly useful. Probably stimulated by the instinct to survive, I suddenly shouted: "The southeast corner..." As I said that, I ran over there first. Xu Xu suffered from the boss in the southeast corner just now, and was about to stop me, but the dense corpse insects had already crawled over. Looking at these ugly things, he, a rich young master, almost vomited on the spot. I have never seen it before. People can never imagine what kind of scene this is.

I pulled the wood, and the three of us stopped in the southeast corner of the tomb. Strange to say, these densely packed corpse insects stopped less than one meter away from us, non-stop Wandering, but no longer forward. I finally breathed a sigh of relief temporarily—I don’t know who arranged this pattern. It’s a serial killing situation, and the dead end is the only way to survive. Although I figured out that there must be insect repellents in the southeast corner, but now we are Trapped in one, if you can't think of a way, you will still die. Southeast corner...candles?My heart moved, and I asked Xu Xu, "Why do you need to light candles to open the coffin?"

Xu Xu laughed dryly, his face was extremely ugly, he looked nervously at the ugly corpse insects not far in front of him, the wood was being illuminated by a flashlight, and now the entire tomb was covered with dense corpse insects, twisted and entangled At the same time, on the scarlet hook, it seems that there is still rotten meat that has just been hooked from the rotting corpse... Those rotting corpses used to be my kind. Grandpa said that there is no need to be afraid of them, but now these insects that grow on corpses are not my kind... "That's the rule left by the ancestors. When touching gold, you have to light a candle in the southeast corner. After opening the coffin, you can touch the candle. If the candle is not extinguished, you can take it away. If the candle is extinguished, you have to take the candle away." Return the instrument, bow respectfully and exit..." Xu Xu explained.

"Why...why?" Mu Mu was very nervous, probably wanting to relieve the panic in his heart by speaking, he interjected and asked, but his teeth chattered and he stuttered. Xu Xu explained that he did not know whether it was true or not, but it was passed down through the ages. When the candle was extinguished—it was a ghost blowing out the lamp, which meant that the owner of the tomb did not agree with you taking away the artifact. Put it back, kowtow and quit, otherwise it will be too late, and I'm afraid you will have to pay for your life. Oh shit!I got angry when I heard this, what kind of rules are these? We didn’t even have time to light the candles, and we didn’t even know what the tombstones looked like. That's all.

By the way, when Xu Xu was lighting candles in the southeast corner just now, he said that he was immobilized, but now we are in the southeast corner, but nothing happened. Could it be that there is a mystery to this? Candle?Southeast corner?I didn't think too much about it just now, but I just knew that there is a trap in the southeast corner, which should be the only way to survive in a dead end. I knew very well in my heart that no matter what trap is arranged, there must be a way to survive, so that I can't run to the southeast corner. Now that I think about it , I seem to be too reckless.

The person who designed this tomb must have known the habit of lighting candles in the southeast corner, so he set up such a deadly dilemma? what should we do?I lowered my head and pondered, the stone door of the tomb could not be opened, we went out, and were still surrounded by these densely packed corpse insects? "Xu Xu, light up the candles!" I ordered bluntly. "Light a candle?" Xu Xu looked at me a little puzzled. I nodded affirmatively, Xu Xu didn't ask the reason, and was busy digging out candles and lighters from his backpack. With a crackling sound, a string of blue flames came out from the lighter, and then, a small candle that didn't light up, was right in front of us. swaying around.

Corpse worms are creatures in the dark. When they suddenly saw the open flame, they seemed to be restless for a moment, but none of the corpse worms receded, even moved back a little. I looked up and saw that the ground in the tomb was covered with corpse insects everywhere, and it was almost impossible to find a way out from the tomb. I anxiously took two steps on the small southeast corner, and a short piece of candle was flickering at my feet, but it looked ghostly. When I was young, I heard people tell stories. In the south of China, some villages still have this custom. After a person dies, the body is buried for three, five, or seven days. Light an oil lamp on the head of the dead, and the oil lamp lasts day and night...

I don't know exactly what this pie is about, and neither can the person who told me the story. It seems that as long as this oil lamp goes out, there will be big trouble. I closed my eyes and comforted myself—be calm and calm, there must be a way out, no matter what mechanism, it will definitely not lead to a dead end, which is not good for the dead and not good for the living. These corpses are all spit out from Qinglong's mouth, so—according to theory, the exit mechanism should also be on Qinglong, but—how do we get there? This tomb is not big, and the total area is estimated to be slightly larger than an ordinary basketball court. If there were no corpse insects everywhere, it would only be a few steps to walk there, but—now, unless I can fly over, otherwise, as long as If I step in, I'm afraid there will be no bones left. fly?My qinggong is good, but I still have certain problems if I want to fly directly to the opposite stone wall, unless there is some place to borrow strength in the middle? As soon as I read this, I couldn't help cursing inwardly, idiot, don't I have a rope?Throw the rope over, hook it to the top of a palace on the opposite side, and then use the rope to fly to the opposite stone wall. With my lightness skills, it will definitely not be a problem. "Xu Xu, the rope..." I couldn't help getting carried away, I almost stepped out of the small area in the southeast corner, and countless corpse insects raised their scarlet hooks, twisted their ugly bodies, and were about to crawl towards me Come here, I was so scared that I hurried back.I can guarantee that these corpse worms are definitely not vegetarian... "Boss Yuan, what do you want to do?" Xu Xu asked me, but while speaking, he still pulled out the rope from his backpack. He was ready to rob the tomb, and he had all the tools. Although I also brought a rope, it was not long enough. It was just the hemp rope provided by the old village chief. I took the rope from Xu Xu's hand and fastened the loose buckle. Mu Mu looked at me a little anxiously and said, "Boss Yuan, what do you want to do?" Of course he was trying to find a way to get out. Could it be impossible to wait here to die?I smiled and said, I am confident that as long as I can touch the green dragon on the opposite side, I will definitely be able to find a mechanism to get out. Mu Mu was a little anxious, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word. "Mu Mu, hold the flashlight up a little higher, and shine it on the small attic, do you see it?" I told Mu Mu, and Mu Mu raised the flashlight as he said, and I threw the rope out vigorously. Under the circumstances, he could only rely on the strength of his wrist to throw out the fluffy rope. But after all, I have practiced spiritual power since I was a child, and my wrist strength is still good, or my ancestors bless, gods and Buddhas have eyes, my rope unexpectedly caught a corner of an attic without deviation, I pulled it hard, it was okay, enough Sturdy, ancient craftsmen had no concept of cutting corners. We are at the southeast corner, but there is nothing to borrow, so I handed the rope to Xu Xu, jokingly said: "Master Xu, I entrust Yuan Fei's little life to you. " When I threw out the rope, Xu Xu already knew what I was going to do, took the rope, nodded vigorously and said, "Be careful!" Xu Xu straightened the rope vigorously, and I didn't say much. I gently pulled out the sword from my back, and with a light jump, I had already landed on the straightened rope, just like an acrobat walking a tightrope. With a light touch of the tip on the rope, the person flew forward quickly. On the ground, countless corpse insects seemed to feel the fresh breath of life, and they all raised their heads...
