Chapter 148 Lost in the Desert 05

After falling from the vermilion hall, Wu Xiajiu, Shi Shangzuo and Fang Zi were together.

Fortunately, Tang Yunsi and Lu Nan also fell together, but their current situation is a bit bad, and they don't know where they fell. There is a space about four meters high around them, and there is a door three meters above.

The passage they just fell off has long been closed, and there is a monster sculpture with an open mouth under each of the four walls.

Just as Tang Yunsi and Lu Nan were trying to find a way to climb up and leave through the small door, after the "click" sound, it seemed that something was coming out of the monster's mouth.

The next moment, countless mole crickets spewed out of it.

"Is this called bad luck?" Tang Yunsi and Lu Nan smiled wryly as they stepped back.

His and Lu Nan's props belong to the kind that have certain flaws, although there are no restrictions on their use. His "Devil's Scepter" and Lu Nan's "Dragon Scale Dagger" can deal with larger monsters, but this one Planting small bugs is a bit difficult.

This worm undoubtedly reminded the two of them of the Gu worm they met in Zhuangfu Village of the Republic of China.

Fortunately, Lu Nan sometimes had a flamethrower modified by Shangzuo before, and the flame jet appeared, burning a large area of ​​mole crickets.

Taking advantage of this, the two won a chance, helped each other and finally climbed up the small door at the top. Although there were many mole crickets underneath, few could jump up.

Tang Yunsi and Lu Nan did not stop, and left quickly through the small gate.

On the other side, Li Mao and Bitter Gourd fell together—in a dark corridor, it was quite spacious, but it was dark all around, especially the sculptures with hideous faces and weapons standing on both sides.

Li Mao cursed secretly, got up from the ground with his back propped up, and the light from the searchlight above his head shone on the sculpture, almost startling him.

Without him, this sculpture looks like a human or a monster. The body is clearly human, but the hands and feet are thick and sharp, the eyes are wide open, the distance between the eyes is strangely wide, and the teeth in the mouth are also very sharp.

While Li Mao and Bitter Gua were observing the sculpture, the searchlight above Li Mao's head suddenly went out for a moment, then turned on again and then became dim.

Probably because it hit the ground when it rolled down before and fell, and it was a little broken.

Li Mao reached out and knocked on the lampshade of the searchlight. The light flickered, but it couldn't get any brighter.

As for the searchlight of Bitter Melon, it fell out together with the hat when it rolled down, and disappeared.

However, there was still a flashlight in the backpack behind him. Seeing that the light above Li Mao's head had dimmed, he turned around and tore off the backpack to take out the flashlight, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark figure standing in the middle of the passage.

He was taken aback immediately, but then he realized that the shape of this shadow was almost the same as the sculpture beside them. It seemed that this should also be a sculpture.

Bitter Gua let out a breath, her shoulders drooped tightly, and her arm beat Li Mao.

"What are you doing?" Li Mao frowned and turned around.

Bitter Gourd turned towards one end of the passage and said, "Look there, there is a sculpture standing alone, hey, why is there another one at the end of the passage, and we are not allowed to pass?"

Li Mao followed the sign of the bitter gourd and turned his head to look - the dim light followed, but it was a pity that there was some distance and it was not illuminated too clearly.

Starting from the legs and going up, Li Mao frowned more and more as he looked at it. Why does this sculpture seem to be different from the one next to them?

Until the dim light shines on the abdomen of the "sculpture", it rises and falls, as if it is breathing.

Li Mao and Bitter Gourd felt a sudden change in their hearts, and their expressions changed.

Bitter Gourd happened to have already pulled out the flashlight, and with a trembling of his fingertips, he turned on the switch of the flashlight——

A brighter light than before suddenly shone on the upper body and face of the "sculpture" at the end of the passage—a lizard-like head resting on its neck, a mouth full of sharp teeth, a flat nose, Wide eye spacing.

And those eyes rolled in their sockets, shrank suddenly after being stimulated by the light, then stared at Li Mao and Bitter Gua accurately, opened their mouths wide, and roared.

The monster that was standing like a sculpture immediately rushed towards the two of them.

……

Ye Mang fell down alone, and in the process of looking for a way out, he also encountered the monster that Li Mao and Bitter Gourd met.

This lizard-like monster is extremely powerful, has rough skin and thick flesh, sharp teeth, thick hands and feet, and is also very fast. It exudes a decayed atmosphere.

It took a lot of effort for the wild python to get rid of it, dodged into another passage, and quickly closed the connected stone door.

The chasing monster was blocked, giving the wild python a moment to breathe.

He continued to move forward along the passage, and suddenly heard some movement in front of him, and he was secretly vigilant. The person who made the movement in front of him seemed to have sensed the existence of the wild python, and the sound gradually became quieter.

Just after the wild python passed the corner with one hand on the bracelet, the two met.

Wild Mang's heart relaxed a little, and the person who made the noise was actually A Ye, a subordinate who followed Feng Gu, and Feng Gu collapsed by the wall of the passage, with a bloodstain on his shoulder.

The wild python has eyesight, and it can be seen that the scar on Feng Gu's shoulder should be caught by the monster that was also chasing him. His eyes sharpened immediately, and he said, "Could it be possible that you also encountered that monster that looked like a lizard in front of you?"

Ah Ye said: "That's right..."

He stepped forward and continued to say a few words, but Wild Python's expression changed.

……

The place where Li Mao and Bitter Gourd fell was a bit unlucky. There seemed to be a lair where lizard monsters lived. After one rushed over, not long after, two lizard monsters of the same size appeared at the end of the passage.

There was no other way, Li Mao and Kugua had no choice but to turn around and run away.

It is useless to open the wooden barn. The monster has rough skin and thick flesh. Hitting it will not cause much damage, but will irritate the monster.

The speed of the monster was not slow, and it even climbed to the top of the walls and passages, so that Li Mao and Bitter Melon had to be careful all the time.

The wooden warehouse was hit with no bullets. Li Mao pressed it a few times, and there was only a clicking sound. The wooden warehouse was useless.

Li Mao threw it out and hit the monster's body. Both of them ran desperately. In fact, they were hiding their thoughts, each other guarding against the possibility that the other might play tricks.

As for using props...

Even half of the fifteen days hadn't passed, so should they take out the props now?

In particular, Li Mao's props are consumables, and the number of times they can be used in the world under the car is limited. If he uses them up and the fifteen days have not passed, what will he do next?

Li Mao was waiting for Bitter Gourd to use the props. As long as the opponent restrained those monsters, it would be easier for the two of them to deal with them together.

And there is another wooden bin and two smoke bombs in his backpack, but there is no time to take them out now, the lizard monster is chasing too closely, and if the sharp claws hit his body, there will be a bloodstain.

Li Mao has the mentality of wanting to take advantage and grab props, and Bitter Gourd may not have such an idea.

The two have their own ghosts, and neither of them wants to make the "action" first.

But sometimes accidents occur unexpectedly. Just at the corner of the passage ahead, at the top, a lizard monster with its whole body crawling on it is quietly lurking.

While waiting for Li Mao and Bitter Guar to come here, the monster suddenly jumped down and rushed towards them.

Li Mao moved faster and dodged in panic.

Unfortunately, the bitter gourd was thrown to the ground by the monster, and it got into a ball with the monster gun. The monster's sharp teeth bit into the shoulder of the bitter gourd.

"what--!!!"

Bitter Melon yelled out in pain, touched the bracelet with one hand, and the props appeared.

[Passenger Bitter Gourd uses a C-level item—"The Blood Ax of the Murderer", the number of uses: consumables, and there are a total of five chances to use it. (Note: Every time it is used, the blood ax will become more broken until it is scrapped.)]

[How to use: Passengers only need to swing the blood axe. 】

[Usage effect: "The blood ax of the murderer" can trigger the emotions of fear, panic, and fear in the user, forcing the user to stand still, and can chop the user's neck, arms, etc., triggering dismemberment. 】

[(Note: Every time "The Blood Ax of the Murderer" is used, the effect will be weakened, it cannot be used on passengers, it cannot be used on ghosts...)]

The ax in Bitter Gourd's hand was blood-colored all over, and the blood was solidified in some places, and it was already dark and dirty. The blood ax was about the length of an arm, and the ax was huge, and seemed to be heavy enough.

However, the prop was held by the user, but it was obviously very light. At least, the bitter gourd was easily swung out of thin air, and the lizard monster biting on his shoulder was triggered by fear, pulled out its teeth and backed away, and stood still.

Bitter Melon endured the pain and swung the blood ax again, slashing at the lizard monster's neck without stopping.

He only has three opportunities to use this C-level prop "The Blood Ax of the Murderer".

There were two small gaps on the sharp side of the axe, which were the damage left after the two chances of using it before, and obviously, the effect of the blood axe also began to weaken.

The blood ax only cut off half of the lizard monster's neck, but the neck was a fatal wound, and it succeeded in killing the monster that bit him.

The monster fell to the ground with a bang, and red blood slowly dripped from the neck and body, soaking a large area of ​​floor tiles.

Gap appeared on the sharp blade of the blood ax again. However, there were still three lizard monsters chasing them. Only took the opportunity to catch up.

Bitter Melon had no time to escape, so he continued to swing the axe.

Once, twice... One of the three monsters was half injured, and the remaining two didn't even cut their skins. The blood axe, the prop, shattered into two halves and fell down, scrapping.

But fortunately Li Mao is not stupid. He knows that if Kugua dies here at this time, he will be left alone in the team of the two. If he runs away alone and meets the monster later, it will not be more difficult than it is now.

What's more, even if Kugua still has props in his hands to deal with the danger, if he doesn't help but take advantage of it later, he will definitely be hated by the other party, so it's better to sell it now.

So, Li Mao yelled to let the bitter gourd avoid, and then took out a smoke bomb from his backpack and threw it out.

Fearing that it might not be safe, when Bitter Gourd ran to him, he threw the last remaining smoke bomb at the monster. In an instant, the entire passage was quickly covered by white smoke, and Li Mao and Bitter Gourd hurried away upon seeing this.

Not daring to stop, the two ran for a long time, their ears were filled with their own panting and footsteps, and their hearts were beating violently, until Li Mao and Kugua bumped into Gesang, Ajin and Shiyu by chance.

The two stopped.

When Shiyu saw the distressed appearance of the two of them, especially the wound on Kugua's shoulder, which was still bleeding, he couldn't help asking in surprise, "What's wrong with you? Is there something chasing after you?"

But when she looked back, it was pitch black and there was nothing.

Li Mao took a breath and said, "I, we encountered a monster that looked like a lizard before, didn't you encounter anything?"

Timely Rain shook his head: "No, we've been looking for a way out."

fuck.

Li Mao and Bitter Gourd cursed inwardly at the same time, how could the three of them be so lucky that they didn't encounter anything, while they were chased by the lizard monster.

However, they met now, which reassured Li Mao.

Anyway, if there are monsters coming again later, more people means more chances of escaping.

Therefore, Li Mao pretended to be kind and said: "Don't go in this direction, we are the lizard monster we will meet later..."

He told about the thrilling situation he and Kugua had just had.

Gesang said, "Then it seems that we chose the wrong direction. Why don't we go this way."

Gesang pointed to the other end of this passage.

Ah Jin, that is, Mi Zheng, had no objection, and Shiyu's expression was mainly based on Gesang's words. Seeing this, Li Mao and Kugua immediately understood that Gesang was making the decision among the three.

Li Mao said with a smile on his face, "Yes."

Bitter Gourd touched his shoulder and nodded.

Soon after, they stumbled across the character "Cao" carved on the wall by Dr. Cao in this passage.

……

Wu Xiajiu, Shi Shangzuo and Fang Zi were passing through the hall full of mummified corpses.

While walking slowly in the first half, the cloth strips wrapped around the mummy dangled, always staining their shoulders or surroundings, and a rancid and unpleasant smell hit at the same time, making people want to cover their noses.

And seeing the tragic death of the mummy at such a close distance, if you look up or turn your head, you can face the black and wrinkled skin, face, etc. of the mummy. The impact will undoubtedly make the heart beat faster and the spirit tense.

The talisman that Wu Xiajiu held in his palm was astonishingly hot after he entered the hall, and it felt like it was about to burn. It can be seen that these suspended corpses probably waited for them to walk in before waking up and attacking.

Sure enough, when Wu Xiajiu and others were about to walk into the vicinity of the place where the corpse lay, Shi Shang ran in a low voice, Wu Xiajiu and Fang Zi followed behind.

And the iron chains that lifted the mummy began to rattle, and the mummy was alive.

Despite being bound by iron chains, there are too many and dense corpses, stretching out their dry palms trying to grab them, tighten their necks, and suffocate them...

Wu Xiajiu saw the dead body on the ground, with bruises on the neck and wounds all over the body.

The talisman was thrown, and the mummy wailed, and the body of the mummy contaminated with the talisman would suddenly turn into ashes and fall to the ground.

Although the process was relatively difficult, when the six talismans were exhausted, they finally ran out of the hall smoothly.

Wu Xiajiu looked back, and saw that the hall was full of corpses dancing around, stretching out countless withered arms in their direction.

The engraving left by Dr. Cao gave them a good guide.

In fact, the places where they, Feng Gu, Wild Mang and others fell may seem scattered, but the interconnected passages lead to one place in the end.

It's just that they don't know it.

And that place was also the last place Dr. Cao and his group arrived on the ground floor, after that...

Not long after leaving the hall full of mummies, Wu Xiajiu and the three met Gesang, Jiyu and Ajin, as well as Kugua and Li Mao, and the alcoholic they met later.

Wu Xiajiu discovered the wounds on Bitter Gourd and the drunkard. The two wanted to know about each other's situation. After asking, they learned what they had encountered along the way.

The drunkard was also attacked by the lizard monster like Li Mao and Bitter Melon, but his injuries were just scratches, not like Bitter Melon was bitten.

After meeting Wu Xiajiu and the three of them, it was obvious that something was wrong with Kugua.

His face and exposed arms were flushed, his face was a little swollen, his eyes were sometimes slack, but his lips were strangely black.

It looked like it was poisoned.

In fact, this is exactly the case. The appearance of the bitter gourd reminded Wu Xiajiu and the three of them of the corpse they saw in the room full of torture instruments. Do you know what's going on.

Wu Xia didn't hide it for a long time, and said it out.

After he finished speaking, Kugua's face changed again and again.

Because his face was swollen, he opened his mouth and said with some difficulty: "... poisonous, the teeth of those lizard monsters are poisonous, what should I do, my throat feels so dry, and my blood seems to be boiling..."

So uncomfortable.

Bitter Gourd couldn't help but scratched his arm, his swollen and deformed face could still see a broken expression.

The drunkard touched the scratches on his body. Fortunately, the monster's claws were not poisonous, but the teeth had venom that could be injected into the human body, and he was lucky not to be bitten.

The drunkard couldn't help but raised his arm to look at it, and it was still the original skin color.

Jiyu didn't know how to comfort him, so he choked out a sentence: "Maybe, maybe there is something that can detoxify here, just like snakes are poisonous, but snake gallbladder can be used as medicine to detoxify."

"Maybe that lizard monster is like a snake, its blood or flesh can detoxify."

There is some truth in the words of Timely Rain, Bitter Gourd forced himself to calm down, after all, now that he is collapsing, it will be even more difficult to have a chance of survival in the future.

Wu Xiajiu and others searched for the marks left by Dr. Cao and continued walking.

Not long after, the two sides of the passage changed, and murals began to appear on the bare walls. Wu Xiajiu couldn't help slowing down to take a closer look. Some of the murals overlapped with the reliefs in the stone room they first left, but some were never seen.

——The painting shows King Loulan leading the people to a lake to fetch water. This place is not like a desert. The lake is surrounded by green grass, birds and flowers, and wild deer, rabbits, etc. also come to drink water. It is a picture of man and nature. harmonious scene.

Looking back further, if the painting in the front is harmonious, the painting in the back tells the story of desolation.

The lake gradually disappears, and the desert and drought appear, and the dead animals are slowly buried in the sand, and there are still bones...

In the back, the content of the relief in the stone room is interspersed. A lizard monster with a human face on its back appears, and some people are selected and dragged into the room where King Loulan is.

But what happened in the room has still not been drawn.

For some reason, Wu Xiajiu always felt a little strange looking at these murals, as if there was something missing in the murals, so that the story was not coherent...

At this moment, there was a sudden "bang dong" sound at the front of the passage, followed by a faint human voice.

Wu Xiajiu and Shi Shangzuo looked at each other and walked forward quickly, while the others followed behind.

At the end of the passage is a palace gate. As soon as he entered, Wu Xiajiu clearly felt the difference between this place and other places.

This place is a bit too magnificent, the ground is full of gold coins, etc., and the walls are also covered with gold leaf, surrounded by high pillars, and the middle is made of hollow grids.

And in each brick grid are placed a lot of precious treasures at first glance.

Someone in the palace had already arrived before they came, and it was the other passengers who were separated from them, including Feng Gu and A Ye, who were also here.

To Wu Xiajiu's surprise, one of Xiaowei and Feng Gu's subordinates who stayed up there was also there.

Obviously, after the vermilion hall collapsed, these two people were buried in the sand, but they did not die. As for the others, it is unknown whether they died on the way or fell down.

Sliding down the passage of the vermilion hall, the place where Wu Xiajiu and the three fell was farther away, and the others came in first.

After counting, all the people have arrived.

When Tang Yunsi and Lu Nan saw Wu Xiajiu and the other three, their faces were overjoyed, and they walked over quickly to meet with them, and exchanged information with each other in a low voice.

It turned out that the noise they heard before was caused by Xiaowei.

In this magnificent hall, he found the message left by Dr. Cao - "Xia", which seems to have been left in a hurry, and the handwriting is somewhat deformed.

But because the "down" stroke is simple, it is easy to see.

This font was left on a tall pillar in the hall, and most importantly, there was a piece of paper in the grid next to the tall pillar. Xiaowei saw that it was torn out by Dr. Cao from his notebook , there is still a paragraph of text on the paper.

"What did you write?" Wu Xiajiu couldn't help asking.

Just as Tang Yunsi was about to answer, Xiaowei's voice broke down and shouted: "I don't know, I really don't know what the doctor's message means?! Don't ask me again! Ahh!"

Along the way, Xiaowei's spirit has stretched to the limit, and the exit of the vermilion hall was completely blocked by sand, making it impossible to get out.

And they had no choice but to come all the way through the stone gate in the temple.

But here seems to be the end, there is no other exit, are they going to be trapped under the desert forever? !

Where did Dr. Cao go?

Leave a piece of paper and a word "下" and disappear, where to go?

And what the information on the paper meant, Xiaowei couldn't understand it at all.

Feng Gu frowned and said, "Calm down, you are the person who has followed Dr. Cao the longest. If you don't know what the message Dr. Cao left, how would we know?"

Feng Gu was also scratched by the lizard monster, and the wound was simply bandaged. He can bear it well, but now his face is a little pale, and it seems that there is no other serious problem.

And bitter gourd only felt dizzy in the head, the blood was burning and boiling, and the pain spread from the limbs.

He couldn't take it anymore, so he swayed under the pillar by himself, and sat down to rest.
