Bu Tian Gang

The tentacles are too long, and the winter solstice specially picks the fat and tender places to cut the meat, and fills a small bag full before standing up contentedly.

"It's cold now, and it's raw again. It can be preserved for at least a day, so we don't have to eat dry food all the time."

Compassionate for the same kind, Liu Si, who is also in the shape of a living being, looked at the "corpse" of tentacles cut into pieces on the ground, couldn't help the corners of his mouth twitching, and reminded in a low voice: "What if this thing is poisonous?"

Dong Zhi said: "It's okay, the tentacles of an octopus are generally not poisonous. If the tentacles were poisonous just now, we would have been poisoned a long time ago. Besides, I brought salt and cumin, so there is no need to waste it."

Liu Si was still a bit mentally handicapped, but he swallowed silently when he heard the octopus whiskers grilled with cumin.

Liu Qingbo: "...I can understand bringing salt, may I ask why you thought of bringing cumin?"

Winter Solstice said with a smile: "When we were staying in Los Angeles, I went to the back kitchen. The chef saw that I was pleasing to the eye, so he gave me a small bottle of cumin powder. At that time, I thought that foreigners like BBQ, and they might bring barbecue. Who Knowing they didn't bring it, we got grilled octopus."

Liu Qingbo raised his forehead: "Who taught you that you like to wear everything on your body? Does Dragon Bureau know?"

Long Shen, who was far away in the East, could not answer this question. Winter Solstice happily packed up the octopus slices and led everyone to move forward.

I don't know if it's because of the loss of a tentacle. They didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. Of course, they didn't meet people from other teams. Until the evening, when the sun went down, everyone had already walked in the maze for a whole day. one day.

Compared with fighting zombies in the forest, it is of course easier here, but everyone, including the winter solstice, always feels that danger lurks under the calm, and the coming night is the best protective color for all dangers, often Many accidents happen late at night, not during the day.

Winter Solstice looked up at the sky and said, "Let's stop and rest after it's completely dark. We can still walk for a while now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a few drops of dark liquid on the ground at the corner in front of him.

is blood.

Dong Zhi subconsciously wanted to step forward, but was grabbed by Liu Qingbo. Dong Zhi gave him a comforting look, pulled his hand away, and approached slowly.

A person was leaning against the wall, his body half-turned, his eyes closed.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the other party immediately opened his eyes again, assuming an attacking posture, took a closer look, and found out that it was Dong Zhi and the others, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's you!"

Winter Solstice was also surprised that the other party was actually Tom who William had said disappeared in the maze halfway.

"Why are you here?"

Tom said weakly: "Don't mention it, do you have anything to eat? I have eaten up all the dry food on my body?"

Winter Solstice: "Do you have a BBQ?"

Tom: "Yes, I have a small stove in my backpack."

Winter Solstice said with a smile: "Then treat you to a grilled baby octopus."

Liu Qingbo: ...

The Yankee was already dizzy with hunger, and couldn't remember where to find the octopus tendrils, so he asked Dong Zhi to take out the mini oven from his backpack, put octopus slices on skewers and bake them on top, Dong Zhi also took out salt and cumin and sprinkled it on , All of a sudden, a scent hit the nostrils, even Liu Qingbo and the others twitched their index fingers, let alone Tom.

Before the other party waited for the octopus to be cooked, he grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth, devouring it. His expression was so moved that he was about to cry.

"God bless, luckily I met you guys, otherwise I wouldn't have been beaten to death by the monster, but I would probably starve to death here!"

He finished most of the large bag of octopus fillets, looked at the almost empty bag and said apologetically, "Sorry, I ate your dinner."

Li Han'er and the others didn't speak, they just stared at him, which made Tom break out in a cold sweat.

"What's wrong? Did I eat too much?"

Li Han'er: "Are you feeling well?"

Tom touched his stomach: "No, it's good, my stomach is full, and it's very delicious!"

The corner of Liu Qingbo's mouth twitched: "Since it's delicious, you can also take the rest."

Tom was moved: "You are so kind!"

After saying this, he reacted belatedly: "But where did you get the octopus slices? Could it be..."

His face was a little pale, and Winter Solstice comforted him: "It's not what you think, we fished it from the sea."

Octopus monsters should indeed live in the sea.

Tom was comforted and didn't dare to delve into it any further, so he hurriedly told what happened to him in the past two days.

Tom was walking in front of Lilith at the time, but when he turned the corner, a tentacle suddenly stretched out, and before he could make a sound, it blocked his mouth and swept away. Tom was caught off guard, couldn't react in time, and shot He didn't even take it out, and almost became food in the mouth of the octopus monster. Fortunately, a group of Nordic people passed by and rescued him in time.

At the beginning, the Americans, Africans and Nordics landed on Full Moon Island, but the Americans chose to quit halfway after Tom disappeared, and went to the Rose Island with the eagle-clawed banshee first, and then brought the British and southern Europeans. people come back here.

In other words, if there were no accidents, there should be many teams in this maze.

Although Tom didn't find a companion, he was also very happy to meet humans instead of tentacles, so he walked with the Nordics.

There is also a Russian in the team. It is said that the other party is called Anton. He was separated from his companions on Rose Island. Anton couldn’t find his companions, and he didn’t want to retire early to affect the honor of the team, so he had to come to the Full Moon Island alone. He also encountered tentacles in the maze and was rescued by the Nordics.

Walking with a group of people is of course much safer than walking alone, but Tom didn't expect that this was the beginning of his nightmare.

All of them rested on the spot that night. Tom's sleep quality has never been very good, but because he was too tired during the day, he soon fell asleep and fell unconscious until he was woken up by a sharp pain in his chest.

"This little guy saved my life."

Tom took out a little squirrel from his arms, and the other party held a pine nut and gnawed endlessly, without making any sound, wagging its big fluffy tail, and seemed to be in a good mood.

"This is my little pet. It is very sensitive to smells. It bit me in the middle of the night and woke me up in pain. Guess what I saw!"

Zhang Song was impatient: "Don't tell stories, tell them quickly!"

Tom said he saw something he would never forget.

In the darkness, a person squatted in front of another person, took out a bloody heart from his body, and chewed it with gusto.

After all, Tom is a practitioner, no matter how frightened he is, he will not scream like an ordinary person. He thought he was sleepy, so he held his breath and watched for a long time, and found that except himself, everyone else seemed to have fallen asleep. He fell to the ground, and the smell of blood mixed with sweetness wafted in the air, so strong that it was disgusting, but he didn't wake up just now.

Tom quietly took out the gun from his arms, but the slight movement still alarmed the other party. The man stopped eating and turned to look at him. At that moment, Tom also pulled the trigger at the same time.

"The exorcism bullets are useless to him!" Tom's breathing was a little short, "He rushed towards me, I fired a few shots indiscriminately, turned around and ran, and ran a long way, but he didn't continue to catch up, I ran away It’s far away before I feel like I’m out of danger!”

Dong Zhi and Liu Qingbo looked at each other, and immediately realized that it was probably someone who was possessed by demon energy.

"Have you seen him clearly? Who is he?"

Tom shook his head: "I only know that it must be a man, but in fact I don't know them well. It was too dark and I was too anxious at the time, so I didn't recognize it at all."

Dong Zhi patted him on the shoulder: "Then come with us."

Tom nodded, and looked at them carefully again: "You, none of you are possessed by demons, right?"

Winter Solstice asked for a bell from Li Han'er, and threw it to Tom: "Tie it on, and it will ring if a monster approaches you."

Tom whistled: "It's so magical, is it your oriental exorcism? What's the name of this bell?"

Winter solstice nonsense: "It's called octopus bell."

Li Han'er: ...

Tom murmured, "What a strange name."

The night has come completely, everyone has a fire to rest, and there is a high wall to block the wind, but it is not cold. This may be the only advantage over staying in the forest with wind blowing all around.

The news brought by Tom is very useful. At least Winter Solstice and the others know that there is magic energy in this maze, so they will be more vigilant.

Zhang Song and Yang Shouyi were on watch at night. Maybe they knew that they were guarded tightly. The first half of the night was calm and safe. In the second half of the night, Zhang Song yawned and was about to wake Yang Shouyi when something happened.

He saw countless huge black shadows descending from the sky, sliding down the wall from above, silently, touching the people resting against the base of the wall.

"Enemy attack!" Zhang Song shouted.

Almost at the same time as he yelled, the bells on everyone's bodies also rang.

Tom yelled, "The octopus bell is ringing! The octopus bell is ringing!"

"To shut up!"

Liu Qingbo and Li Han'er spoke at the same time, and the two sword lights struck the tentacles on the wall.

Although those tentacles were huge, they were extremely flexible. Although they didn't have eyes, they sensed the threat coming. The moment the sword light struck him, the tentacles retracted swiftly, and the sword light fell into the air and struck the wall, leaving two deep and Mark of.

A few tentacles waved in the air, immediately fighting with everyone.

The tentacles are extremely powerful and lethal. Most of the time they are pulled down heavily. Although the person dodges, the tentacles are drawn on the wall, the powder rustles down, and broken bricks and rocks hit the person. Even if it is not fatal, it is still life. pain.

Li Han'er looked at the tentacles in front of her, and suddenly there was another one behind her, wrapping her around her waist and leading her into the air. Liu Siyan was quick, and he whipped him over. body, firmly on the ground.

Tom also drew out the machete on his back to fight with the tentacles. Although he is tall, his movement speed is not inferior, but those tentacles are invulnerable, unless the sword is infused with energy to cause damage, otherwise the bullets are useless. For a moment, the sword light and sword shadow, the huge tentacles with rough skin and thick flesh, and the scars caused by the sword light and whip shadow on it, seemed to only irritate it and make it launch a more violent attack.

A tentacle slammed onto the wall, and the yellowstone brick wall quickly cracked, and the gap widened immediately. Amidst the loud bang, the wall collapsed like a city, pressing down on everyone.

The tentacles seemed to be aware of the harm that the brick wall could bring to people, and smashed the wall one after another, smashing at them.

Visibility is low in the dark, but Zhang Song and the others are agile, they can only protect their heads at most, but their hands, feet, backs are injured, and their faces are scratched by flying stones, but the tentacles are still raging, and they are getting more and more There are many, dancing above people's heads, even covering the fog, and the strong smell of the sea permeates the surroundings, making it almost suffocating.

Liu Si whipped over and whipped away the tentacle that was thrown at his head, but then another one came from behind. He reacted very quickly and turned around to attack, but the huge tentacle was so powerful that it almost rolled his whip Let's go, Liu Si poured his true strength into it, and the whip shadow was stern, like the wind on the top of a mountain in the cold sky, making the tentacles helpless, they could hardly find a gap to invade, and did not dare to approach, so they had to shift their targets and look for other targets .

Zhang Song held a talisman in one hand and a sword in the other. After the fire talisman was ignited, it flew out through the sword energy, and one after another fell on the tentacles. The tentacles seemed to be afraid of the flames, and immediately contracted again and again, but Zhang Song seemed to have discovered a new continent. , pressing harder and harder.Longhushan is rich and powerful, and Zhang Song is a direct disciple of Neishan. No one knows how many runes he brought with him this time. Although the fire talisman he is using now is not as valuable as Shangqing Dan, it is worth it to ordinary Taoists who have no connections. Said it was a valuable item, if they saw that Zhang Song treated the Fire Talisman like a toy, they would simply curse at the prodigal stuff.

Tom cut a gap in the tentacles with a knife, panting from exhaustion, and looked back at Zhang Song, his eyes were straight.

"God, are you a magician, or a wizard who can play with fire!"

Zhang Song rolled his eyes: "I have no experience, this is called talisman!"

Tom imitated his tone: "Fuhua?"

Because he was distracted, a tentacle slapped him, and almost hit half of his shoulder. At the critical moment, Zhang Song pulled him and swung the tentacle away with his sword, but Zhang Song's tiger's mouth was also numb from the shock.

Compared with Zhang Song's ostentatious skills, Yang Shouyi seemed much more steady and steady, but his attack was not weakened by this, and it was more than enough for one person to fight with three tentacles alone.

Although everyone was harmless under the attack of the tentacle, it was only temporary. The owner of the tentacle was a giant monster with great strength. The loss will be faster, even if it only consumes time, the tentacles are enough to consume their physical strength, and then easily destroy them.

Winter Solstice put on thick gloves, leaped onto the brick wall, and climbed up through the gaps and gaps between the bricks on the wall. His speed was very fast, and it looked like he had practiced climbing trees on the roof of the Special Administration Bureau all day—— The wall was five or six meters high, and Dong Zhi quickly climbed up the top of the wall. He turned on the flashlight and tried to find the body of the octopus monster.

To capture the thief, first capture the king. If you want to stop the tentacles, you must completely deal with the octopus monster.

The light of the flashlight was limited, and the huge body of the octopus writhed and waved in the darkness, covering a large area of ​​the city wall. As far as the eye could see, the source of the tentacles could not be seen at all.

Without further ado, Dong Zhi jumped on one of the tentacles and held it tightly with both hands. If the tentacles felt something, he swung it vigorously in the air, trying to shake him off, but Dong Zhi grabbed the suction cup on the tentacles and moved upwards little by little. Climbing, the monster failed to shake him off for a while.

Liu Qingbo was stunned, but he didn't care to stop him, so he had to imitate the winter solstice and grab the tentacles closest to him, and climb up along the direction of the tentacles.

There is mucus on the tentacles, which are actually very slippery. If it weren't for the dense suction cups, it would be impossible for people to grasp it, and the octopus monsters waved their tentacles in the air, which caused great obstacles to their actions. , Liu Qingbo's hands were sticky and slippery, smelling the fishy smell of the seafood itself, he almost didn't spit it out.

"It's winter solstice, sir, I'll come here in this outfit!" Letting Liu Qingbo move in the air holding the octopus tentacles, holding his breath from time to time, for him, it was more uncomfortable than cutting him with a knife.

Dong Zhi ignored him. To be precise, Dong Zhi couldn't concentrate on Liu Qingbo anymore. He moved to the end of the tentacles with difficulty, and by the light of the flashlight, he saw a huge black shadow moving on the city wall more than ten meters away. The huge figure, like a small mountain, is almost rare in his life.

In the underground river behind Liang Weiwei's tomb in order to find the stele before, they also fought against three giant pythons, but compared with the huge monster in front of them, the three giant pythons seemed a bit petite.

Solstice finds itself with a problem.

There are only a small part of the suction cups on the octopus tentacles, and he has already climbed to the end of the suction cups. Further forward, there are bare tentacles without any friction. It is impossible for him to stabilize his body on it, let alone get close to the octopus monster up.

Winter Solstice lay on the octopus, being thrown around up and down like a roller coaster. While thinking hard, seeing Zhang Song "playing" with the tentacles with the talisman fire below, his eyes lit up, inspiration came suddenly, and he touched the octopus from his arms. Take out a bright light talisman, recite the spell and hold the talisman, the fire of the talisman ignites, and throws it at the tentacles.

The octopus monster is extremely sensitive to fire. Almost the moment it touched the talisman fire, the tentacles retracted immediately. The winter solstice was already prepared, he hugged the tentacles tightly, and instantly experienced the feeling of riding a rocket.

Sure enough, as the tentacles retracted, he was getting closer and closer to the octopus monster!

You bet yourself!

Excitement and nervousness welled up in his heart. He clenched his long guard sword tightly. He didn't know where to throw the flashlight, so he could only judge how far he was from the octopus monster by feeling.

There was something vaguely blocking the front, and Dong Zhi couldn't be sure. At this moment, there was an angry roar coming from behind him.

"Winter Solstice, your grandma is a bear!"

Winter Solstice felt that Liu Qingbo might become angry because he was not as smart as himself.

Because not long ago he blamed his uncle, but now he blamed his grandma. Dongzhi wanted to tell him that both his uncle and grandma had passed away long ago, and he could only look for them below if he wanted to find them.

But as soon as the words were out of the mouth, they became: "Old Liu, turn on the flashlight and take a picture of the front for me!"

Liu Qingbo didn't have a fire talisman, so he couldn't use fire to force the tentacles back like in the winter solstice, so he could only hold the tentacles up and down in the air, cursing his mother, while struggling to take out the flashlight and turn it on.

Too far away, the light can only vaguely illuminate a silhouette.

But this silhouette is enough!

Dong Zhi saw a pair of dark and round eyes slowly turning, and then flashed away under the light of the flashlight, allowing him to instantly determine the direction of the octopus monster.

With a flick of the wrist, the Changshou sword turned into a sword light and flew towards the target. The sword was cold, like the dazzling starlight in the eternal night, which can break through all dark prisons and finally reach the other side of light.

The moment Jian Guang came into contact with the octopus monster, he seemed to hear an extremely shrill scream. It was not a substantive sound, but it was like a heavy hammer hammering a hole in his mind, causing Dong Zhi's body to shake violently. After falling down, the tentacles trembled and shook violently, waving in the air with a more crazy arc, which seemed to reflect the great pain of the owner's body.

At the same time, not only the winter solstice, but everyone's mind was filled with an earth-shattering cry.

Liu Qingbo's hand trembled, and the sword almost fell out of his hand.

He subconsciously thought it was Winter Solstice crying, but then he realized that it was wrong, such a powerful sound wave could not have come from any human being.

Oh my god, that sound is too bad!

He watched in disbelief that the tentacles he was hugging suddenly shrank sharply, and quickly shrank to be thinner than his own sword. He couldn't hold on anymore, and fell directly from the air.

Dongzhi was similar, but a little better than Liu Qingbo. He just landed on the top of the wall. With the help of buffer, he didn't fall so badly. The Changshou sword also fell from mid-air, and Dongzhi reached out to catch it.

The huge tentacles disappeared in an instant, and everyone was stunned. They didn't know what happened. Only Dongzhi was the closest, and vaguely guessed the truth. He hurriedly took out the flashlight from his pocket and took a few random photos.

As expected, it was beneficial to be condescending, and he soon found a dark mass at the base of the other wall.

The thing moved slowly on the ground, because one eyeball was blinded by the winter solstice, black blood flowed out, and a small ball fainted under the body.

Dong Zhi stared dumbfounded at the octopus, which was slightly bigger than a palm, and couldn't imagine that it was the monster octopus that swept almost all of them just now.

The crying sound was still going on in my mind, no matter it was the giant monster or the small and exquisite octopus in front of me, the crying sound was the same rough and ugly, Zhang Song couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "Don't cry!"

The little octopus really stopped crying, but the sound was still twitching, and everyone's temples seemed to be hurting from the pulling.

"They lied to me, saying that the most tentacles will be cut off, but they didn't say that even the eyeballs will be stabbed!"

Winter Solstice discovered that the sound waves transmitted by the little octopus can actually be transformed into a concrete language into the mind. Although it is in English, it also shows that this monster octopus can communicate.

"Who are they?" he asked.

"The one who asked me to come to this island." The little octopus said.

Winter Solstice's heart skipped a beat: "The organizing committee? They asked you to test us?"

Octopus: "Yes, they said that there will be a competition here. They invite me to come to this island to act as an obstacle, and I will be rewarded after I finish."

Winter Solstice: "What reward?"

The octopus was sobbing: "If you cut off one of my tentacles, they will compensate me a ton of fish, but they didn't say what they will compensate me for blinding my eyes!"

Crowd: ...

The author has something to say: let’s come to an end here first, and then start the dragon game, otherwise there will be suspense, let the dragon game fly for a while~

Small theater unrelated to the main text:

Winter Solstice: Master, I brought you special products back.

Long Shen: American specialty?

Winter Solstice: No, seafood.

Long Shen:? ? ?

Seeing Chao Sheng flying over: I want it!

Winter Solstice: ...they grow from the same root, so why rush each other.
