The years of reselling the haunted house

Ma Di asked in a low voice, "Did you hear that? The rustling sound is still there."

I used this method, and sure enough, I heard a different voice.All other sounds in the air were muted, only the rustling sound came from the ground, as if something was crawling on the ground.

"Old Ma, is there some reptile passing by, is it all right?" I raised my head and said.

The old horse kept his ears on the ground, shaking his head while listening: "No, this sound is definitely not one, but a group. And the sound just disappeared, and now it's back, getting closer... Now I just want to leave , I'm afraid it's too late..."

Ma Di's voice was sad for a while, I hurriedly put it on the ground to listen again, sure enough, the voice came very quickly, there were only a few slight ones at the beginning, and only after a while, I heard a strong rustling sound passed it on.

For some reason, after hearing the rustling sound approaching slowly, although I haven't seen what it is, I suddenly feel numb all over.

With a flutter, I jumped up from the ground and took the mahogany sword in my hand.At this time, there is no need to lie on the ground, and you can feel the danger is coming.

"Shusha...Shusha...Shusha..." The voice came one after another, continuously.

Ma Di reminded loudly: "Go and guard, and be ready to light the fire at any time."

Holding my lighter, I ran to the inside of the shallow ditch, staring in all directions.The voice had no direction, and was swarming from all directions.

"Here we come." Ma Di suddenly shouted.

I hurriedly looked over and found that Ma Di was staring at a direction in the distance.

But I didn't see anything special, but I found two shining lights on the ground, as if there were some pieces of glass reflecting the sunlight on the ground.

"Oops, it really is this kind of thing, this is too bad..." Ma Di looked at the two lights, his voice was already trembling.

At this time, I found that more and more bright lights have appeared in the field of vision. They should be a kind of creature. After gathering, they always keep a distance of more than 30 meters from us.

"What the hell is that?" I asked aloud.

"It's a sand wolf worm."

"Sand wolf?" Liang Yue and I looked at each other, obviously we had never heard of this kind of animal.

"Is it very powerful?" Liang Yue asked.

Chapter 129 Crisis

Ma Su looked serious, staring at the place where the little lights appeared, and slowly explained: "The sand wolf worm evolved from the sand worm. The sand worm is a kind of insect that lives in the desert. It is not poisonous, but The evolved sand wolf worm is highly poisonous. And this kind of sand wolf worm usually lives in the Gobi. They are good at attacking prey in groups and are very lethal. Dozens of sand wolf worms got on their bodies, It can instantly turn a full-grown wild horse into bones."

"Gobi? Our place is not Gobi, how could there be sand wolf worms, you can't read it wrong, right?"

Ma Di pointed to the strange grass under the tree and said: "I didn't believe it at first. Until I found this kind of grass. This kind of grass is called camel thorn, and it usually grows in deserts and Gobi areas. Look here, although It is in a valley, but within the scope of Nanliu Village, there is no grass, which is very similar to deserts and Gobi deserts. Since there are camel thorns here, it means that the ecological conditions here are in line with the living environment of sand wolf insects. The appearance of sand wolf Worms are also very possible. And as far as I know, sand wolf worms are very tenacious and can survive many harsh conditions.”

But at this time, there are more and more dots of light in front of us, and they have surrounded us in pieces.

Looking at the will-o'-the-wisp light spot, I felt numb all over, and asked Ma Su, "Are those the eyes of sand wolf worms?"

"Yes. However, due to the strong light in the desert, although the eyes of sand wolf worms are bright, they have degenerated, and their eyesight is very poor. They rely on their sensitive sense of smell, the contact between their bodies and the ground, and some changes in substances in the air. Of this world. They are gathering now and may attack us at any time."

As Ma Di was talking, I noticed that those sparkling spots of light began to move slowly.

Crowds of sand wolf worms surged forward like a tide.

The sand wolf worms walking in front, I can already see their true appearance.Although they are called sand wolf worms, their crawling methods are different from ordinary worms.They don't seem to have obvious thin feet on their bodies, and they act more like snakes. First, they bend themselves three times, and use one or two limbs to "take a step" to the side of the body, and then use the body's Take another "step" at the second bend.They are using this peculiar way of crawling to come to where the three of us are.Although the ground is full of gravel and small stones, they can't stop their advancing trend at all.

Ma Di shouted: "Quick, light the fire."

I was startled by the sound, and then I remembered my mission, and hurriedly lit the lighter in my hand, and lit the branch in the shallow ditch.

The branch was sprinkled with a lot of yellow powder by Ma Su. The powder should be flammable, and it quickly burned in the shallow ditch.At the same time, there was a burst of yellow smoke and a pungent sulfur smell.

In just a short while, the range of our sight was already covered with these sand wolf worms.On the ground in front, there were no gravel or stones to be seen, and they were all covered by this sand wolf worm.

At first, when I heard the rustling sound of the sand wolf crawling, I didn't think it was a big deal.Seeing the scene in front of him now, coupled with the scalp-numbing rustle, seemed even more terrifying.

Fortunately we set fire to the branches in the shallow ditch, and a circle of fire surrounded us.At the same time, yellow smoke spread out, and those sand wolves seemed to be afraid of the yellow smoke. The sand wolves in front temporarily stopped moving forward, but the ones behind were still surging upwards layer by layer.

Seeing that this thing worked, I hurriedly shouted at Ma Di: "Old Ma, this thing is useful for you, and how much is left, take it out quickly."

Ma Di shook his head: "I only brought these two cans of sulfur powder, and I have to keep one as a spare. There are too many bugs, it's just a drop in the bucket, and this is only a temporary solution, not a long-term solution."

As soon as I stamped my feet, I realized that the time when Ma Di asked us to leave here was the best chance to escape.Now we're stuck here, and we can't get out if we want to run.Just like a turtle in a urn.

Liang Yue also said, "Then it's not an option to wait like this."

"No way, now we can only wait... Let's keep one direction each, and when the insect swarm is about to approach, we will sprinkle the remaining stones with sulfur, and roll them out, the stones will pass through the shallow ditch. Burn into a ball of fire. I hope these sand wolves are not coming for us, as long as we persist for a long time, maybe they will give up after listening to it."

The sand wolf worms covering the entire ground are less than ten meters away from us.The scalp-numbing rustling sound became more and more clear.

At this moment, a sound like a wolf howling suddenly came from an unknown direction.

"Woo... ouch..." The howling of the wolf even covered the rustling sound of those sand wolves crawling.

But after the wolf howl, those sand wolves that had retreated rushed up again.

"Sure enough." Ma Di's face became even more ugly.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"I heard that the sand wolf is interdependent with a type of desert wolf. When the weather is cold, the sand wolf will climb to the body of the desert wolf and rely on its fur for warmth. And the skin of the desert wolf will periodically develop a kind of scabies, Sand wolves are needed to eat them. As long as you see sand wolves, there will be desert wolves, so this kind of snake is called sand wolves. Have you heard wolves howling? This means that there are deserts nearby The wolf appears." Ma Di interpreted quickly.

I was dumbfounded when I heard it: "No way, why are there still wolves? I didn't hear the old stall said that there were wolves... This is impossible..."

Ma Di also nodded: "Although this is a mountainous area, this mountain is not a virgin forest after all, and it's not far from human settlements. There shouldn't be a pack of wolves."

I suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "That's right. I know that after the cliff burial, the body will be eaten by the mountain dogs when it falls. This is the bottom of the cliff, and the cliff burial happened just now. Could it be that the howling we just heard Barking, is it from the mountain dog?"

Ma Di said: "That's right. This is not a desert either. It is very likely that the mountain dog has taken the place of the desert wolf."

Ma Di and I were discussing, Liang Yue shouted: "Stop researching, sand wolf insects are coming up.

Sure enough, it seemed that encouraged by the howling of the mountain dog, the sand wolf worms began to attack the fire circle in batches.

The sand wolf in front had rushed into the fire circle recklessly, and suddenly green smoke filled the air, and a pungent burnt smell radiated out.

Those sand wolf worms that rushed into the fire circle earlier were already scorched.

This pungent burnt smell gave people a headache.

"No, this burnt insect body seems to be poisonous too. Try to control your breathing." Ma Di shouted.

But at this time, with the burning of the sulfur and the increase in the number of sand wolf worms, the fire gradually weakened.Those sand wolves seemed to see the dawn of victory, and they became more unscrupulous and swept over frantically.

Chapter 130 Die together

I was a little anxious, so I rushed over and sprinkled the remaining sulfur powder in the bottle along the fire circle again.

The flames rose up again, forcing back another attack of the Sand Wolf Worm.

But we all know that going on like this is simply not an option.Ma Su's luck seemed to have failed, these sand wolves were not passing by at all, they seemed to be coming for us.

At this time, the faces of the few of us were reflected in the firelight, and everyone had a serious expression, as if their emotions were extremely low before the catastrophe came.

Just as the sand wolves retreated a little, the distant howling sounded again.And these sand wolf worms heard the howling sound, as if they were on a stimulant, and once again jumped up crazily.

This time the charge was stronger than the first time.And those burnt insect corpses were devoured by the later sand wolf worms in the blink of an eye.

"It's broken, that's a hole." Ma Di shouted, pointing in one direction.

We turned our heads to look, and sure enough, the circle of fire on Liang Yue's side had been broken through by a group of sand wolves.Just when we turned our heads, five or six sand wolf worms had poured in from that opening.

"Shua... Shua..." After the five or six sand wolves entered the fire circle, they bounced off the ground and flew towards the nearest Liang Yue.

"Ah...be careful..." I couldn't help but exclaimed and reminded Liang Yue loudly.

But it happened so fast that we didn't have time to help.

Holding the shiny short knife in her hand, Liang Yue stepped back half a step, staring at the sand wolf worm missile flying straight towards her.

My heart was in my throat, but I saw those sand wolves within the range of Liang Yue's attack.She swung the short knife, and after a few blows, the five or six sand wolf worms were cut in two, and fell to the ground and twisted continuously.

All this happened in a flash, I didn't even have time to blink, and the five or six snakes were killed by Liang Yue.

"Liang Yue, you did a great job." I praised him sincerely.

But as more and more sand wolves fell into the fire, more gaps appeared.

More sand wolves bounced off the ground and hit us.

The three of us were forced to retreat step by step, and all leaned against the tree.After all, Ma Su was old, so he picked up a few worms with the stick in his hand, and his movements were a little slow.

Holding a short knife, Liang Yue approached Ma Di, and helped Ma Di cut down a lot of sand wolves.

Ma Di shouted out of breath, "Thank you, girl."

Liang Yue replied angrily: "What time is it? Don't be too polite. Let's find a way. Going on like this is not the way to go."

We all know that if we continue like this, we will be killed by these sand wolves sooner or later, but what can we do at this time.

Holding the mahogany sword in my hand, I was also ready to fight those sand wolves to the death.This mahogany sword was also given to me by my third uncle. Although it is made of wood, this kind of mahogany has been specially processed and polished. It has a high degree of toughness and a blade. It is usually used as a magic weapon to ward off evil spirits most of the time. use.When it comes to the critical moment, although it is not as sharp as metal, it can also be used as a conventional weapon.

Who knew that I was ready to deal with the rushing sand wolves.But I found that those sand wolves rushing in from the outside of the fire circle came in front of me, but instead of attacking me, they changed direction and ran towards Liang Yue and Ma Di.

This was beyond my expectation. Could it be that there is something on me that they are afraid of?

I looked at my body, and immediately found the red robe I was wearing.This robe was given to me by the old vendor, and it was the outfit for going into the mountains to pick up bones.

After the old stall left, I had nothing else to wear, so I just wore this all the time.

The old stall head often goes in and out of Fuyang Mountain, and Nanliu Village is also likely to come here often. He will inevitably encounter this kind of sand wolf. The reason why he is safe and sound must be that he has protective equipment on him. Could it be that this robe has played a role?

I am overjoyed at this discovery, which, if true, may save our lives.

Thinking of this, I took off my robe, grabbed one end of the robe and swung towards the sand wolves.

As expected, those sand wolves dodged where the robe swung.

I was ecstatic, threw off the robe, and forced the sand wolves in front of Liang Yue and Ma Su to go away.On the ground, there were already many sand wolf corpses cut off by Liang Yue.

"My robe can drive away sand wolves, let's rush out." I suggested loudly, waving the robe in my hand non-stop.

At this time, the fire in the dug shallow ditch had gradually been extinguished.More and more sand wolf worms gathered.

My proposal is also a no-brainer, just like catching a life-saving straw when you are drowning.

Relying on this robe, we tried to rush out of the encirclement of those sand wolves, and then leave Nanliu Village as quickly as possible.

But we tried to walk a few steps, only to find that the robe couldn't take care of three people at all.

Although the eye function of these sand wolf worms has degenerated, they are very sensitive to the senses of the surrounding environment. Whenever we have a gap, they will take advantage of it.

I took off my robe, without a protective cover on my body. I swung the robe with my right hand, but my left arm was accidentally bitten by two sand wolf worms.I yelled, reached out and grabbed the worm's body and threw it out.The worm's body looked smooth, but it was very rough to the touch.

Liang Yue hurriedly used a short knife to help me defend, but her door was opened wide again, and a sand wolf was bitten on her shoulder.

Ma Di helped to pick the worm off, and shouted hysterically: "This is not possible, we will all die here. You two leave me alone, use that robe to protect yourself, and get out of here quickly."

I responded loudly: "No. I've already been bitten, I don't want to go, you two go first."

Liang Yue shouted loudly: "Who do you look down on? You go, I will stay."

As soon as the three of us gave way, a passage we just opened was quickly occupied by sand wolf worms.We had to retreat under the dead tree again.

I smiled wryly and said, "It's okay this time, no one can leave."

Liang Yue curled her lips: "If you can't leave, you won't be able to leave. At worst, you will die together."

Ma Di praised: "Young girl Liang, you are so brave."

I yelled angrily: "You shit, isn't this a crow's mouth?"

At this time, our arms were already stiff, and the place where I was bitten by the sand wolf insect seemed to gradually lose consciousness.The old horse said that the insect was poisonous, so it seemed that if I was not bitten to death, I would have to be poisoned to death.

Liang Yue and Ma Su were a little exhausted after fighting with the sand wolf for so long, and there were a few more sand wolfs on their bodies.

Our situation couldn't be worse, and we really answered Liang Yue's words. It seems that we really have to die here together.

Chapter 131 Escape from the Dead

Thinking of this, I was sore for a while, and an unknown fire suddenly rose in my heart.

If we hadn't started to listen to Uncle San, we wouldn't have come here either.If it weren't for his whereabouts, we wouldn't be stuck here.

We're in danger now, and he doesn't know where he's gone.Judging from the current situation, he has not been found here at all. With his mind and ability, he may have been out of danger long ago, as Ma Di said, and went somewhere to have a good time.

Looking back now, my thoughts are also extreme.But in that situation at that time, I really felt an unknown fire rising.

I couldn't help yelling at the top of my voice: "Li Dagang, you bastard. I'm dying here, but you're going to hide in peace. I was tricked out by you, and it's been a bad luck for eight lifetimes..."

I waved the life-saving robe desperately, and shouted loudly.
