Tomb Raiders

Chapter 10

"I'm sorry," Shen Liaobai apologized softly, "I was a little flustered outside just now."

Chu Yuyang did not intend to blame him, and indeed he should not have left him outside alone, after all, it is not necessarily safe outside.He took the bonfire from Shen Liaobai's hand, and now it was very dim, so dim that he could only see the face of the person in front of him clearly.

"Tsk." Chu Yuyang snorted slightly impatiently, took out the small porcelain bottle from his waist pocket, poured out the pill, crushed a small amount and threw it into the gauze bag, only to see a sudden commotion in the sandbag Waking up, the originally dim light became much brighter with the commotion.

He held up the bonfire to look around, and Shen Liaobai was able to see the surrounding situation clearly. Under their feet, not far in front of the poisonous corpse, there were all clay pots that looked like wine jars, and the mouths of the jars were all tied tightly with black linen. , swarthy, just looking at it feels gloomy.

Of course, Shen Liaobai was not so naive as to think that the jars contained wine, so he counted them roughly, and there were about a hundred of them, "Could they be full of poisonous corpses?"

Chu Yuyang nodded, "This is the sorcery from Miaojiang. Live people are stuffed into the tank, and five kinds of poisonous substances such as scorpions, snakes, geckos, centipedes, and toads are added, and then they are tied tightly with black linen and buried in the tank. Underground. The living died in the bite and suffocation of the poison, and the resentment of those who died in this way persisted, turning the corpse into a poisonous corpse."

It was the first time for Shen Liaobai to hear such a cruel way of death, and he felt a little pitiful for the poisonous corpse.

As if seeing through his thoughts, Chu Yuyang continued: "They are no longer human, at most they are walking corpses, no different from the rotting corpses outside, if you don't kill them, you will die. "

Shen Liaobai responded softly, suppressing a trace of sympathy in his heart and said: "By the way, I just discovered that the edge of the arch outside seems to be made of jade, with many strange patterns engraved on it."

Chu Yuyang immediately frowned when he heard that, "No wonder you only felt the poisonous corpse when you approached. The pattern is probably used to seal the breath of the poisonous corpse inside."

"What?" Shen Liaobai was surprised, "Is it necessary?"

Chu Yuyang stared at the howling poisonous corpse below, cold light flowing in his light-colored pupils, "Only a layman like you would think this way. Sealing the breath of the poisonous corpse with runes is just for those who want to enter the tomb." Let your guard down, step into this tomb unsuspectingly and become the prey of the poisonous corpse."

Shen Liaobai frowned when he heard that, at this moment there was a rustling sound from below, Shen Liaobai looked down, and immediately leaned back nervously, it turned out that the poisonous corpse was impatiently watching, and began to imitate Looking at Shen Liaobai, he picked the hole and climbed up.Probably because it has been curled up in the tank for too long, its hands and feet are not flexible, and it has not stepped into the hole accurately.

"Didn't you say that you can kill them with corpse water?" Shen Liaobai looked at Chu Qianyang.

"I just said that I could kill them," Chu Yuyang said lightly, "but I didn't say that I would take them."

Shen Liaobai was momentarily at a loss for words.

Chu Yuyang took out a blood bead and handed it to Shen Liaobai, saying: "This one has not been out of the poison tank for a long time, and it is easy to deal with. I will go to tangle with it in a while. After you get down, throw this blood bead far away." To lure him away, so that I can come out."

"Be careful." Shen Liaobai instructed, in fact, with Chu Yiyang's skills, he could easily get away, but he had to be careful everywhere and take precautions with him.

Chu Yuyang stepped on the hole with his toes, and ran behind the poisonous corpse in a few steps. The silk thread in his hand was instantly wrapped around the poisonous corpse's neck several times. pull away.

Shen Liaobai took the opportunity to climb down, he climbed so fast that his ankle was aching, and he didn't have time to look at the hole in his head, so he almost fell several times.Halfway through the climb, there was a sudden sound of a clay pot breaking behind him, and Shen Liaobai was so startled that he almost fell down.He turned his head, and it turned out that the poisonous corpse raised its dry palm and swung it towards Chu Yuyang, but as soon as Chu Yuyang dodged, it smashed three nearby pots and smashed a hole in the ground .

Three poisonous corpses crawled out from the broken pottery pot. The first poisonous corpse had a huge hole in its chest, presumably it was pierced by the palm just now, but it didn't notice it.

Before the flames dimmed, Shen Liaobai saw the true face of the poisonous corpse clearly. The flesh on his body was black and rotten, covering the bones like a thin layer of paper, and the shape of the bones could be seen shriveled. Empty eye sockets, deep black bottomless, the veins all over the body are bright red, very obvious against the black background skin, as if it was stimulated by something, it swept away the dullness just now, and quickly jumped towards Chu Yuyang .

Shen Liaobai finally understood how powerful this poisonous corpse is. Just by looking at its jumping height, it is unheard of. What's more, this poisonous corpse is full of poison at a glance. Its body was cut by Chu Yuyang Only some dark venom flowed out from the wound, and when it fell to the ground, there was a slight burning sound, and the ground was immediately scorched black.

Just now, one poisonous corpse could barely handle it, but now the four poisonous corpses moved quickly, plus they had to look after Shen Liaobai from time to time, it was a bit difficult for Chu Qianyang.Holding the thin blade in his hand, he took two steps back, while the poisonous corpses rushed towards him, and the palm wind with a stench smelt past his ears, and hit the wall behind him, knocking down a piece of earth and rocks.

Chu Yuyang jumped behind the poisonous corpse, the silk thread was wrapped around the neck of the poisonous corpse, trying to tie them together, who would have thought that the poisonous corpse struggled and directly grabbed the silk thread with his hands, the silk thread embedded in its flesh, and scratched a piece of it. Most of the skin, but it didn't feel it at all, Chu Yuyang didn't have time to stop, but was pulled to the front by the poisonous corpse, opened his mouth, and a mouthful of black and smelly venom rushed towards his face.

He immediately let go of the silk thread, stepped back, the venom brushed past his shoulders, and the iron armor on his shoulders turned black and rotted.Before Chu Yuyang stood still, another poisonous corpse had rushed to him, stretched out its gray and black claws and grabbed his chest. Chu Yuyang twisted his body and narrowly escaped, but still He was hit by the arm and flung directly to the wall.

Chu Yuyang felt a slight pain in his chest and took a few breaths. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw four poisonous corpses rushing towards him at the same time. Their withered fingers suddenly swelled, and two-inch-long nails grew out. Even if he was not close to the venom, he knew that if he got a little bit of it, many holes would come out of his body, so he gritted his teeth, threw out the blade and carved it into the left wall, and pulled himself over with all his strength.

"Chu Jianyang, are you okay?" Shen Liaobai shouted uneasily when he heard the sound of fighting suddenly stop.

"Throw the blood beads out." Chu Yuyang shouted, his breath was very unstable, it was really difficult for him to deal with four poisonous corpses by himself.

Shen Liaobai threw the blood beads out in a hurry, the bloody smell immediately dissipated, the sound of fighting continued, he seized the time to crawl to the door, as long as he went out, Chu Yuyang would be able to act better with less burden.

However, one blood bead is far from enough to attract four poisonous corpses, they just paused for a while, and one poisonous corpse chased after the scent of the blood bead, and the other three poisonous corpses continued to rush towards Chu Yuyang, and Chu Yuyang collapsed. Unexpectedly, these walking corpses would know how to divide their troops, so he couldn't do it for a while, so he had to jump up to the wall with a few steps. There was a groove there, which was just enough for him to climb with one hand to avoid the attack of the poisonous corpses below.

The poisonous corpses couldn't reach him, and they couldn't climb the walls like him. They stood underneath, gasping for grunts, their veins were suffocated red, and then the fiery red quickly flowed to their heads and condensed in their throats.Chu Yuyang was secretly thinking that something was wrong, a stream of poisonous juice shot out from the poisonous corpse's wide-open mouth, and hit the corner of his robe. The material of the corner of the robe turned into black water and dripped down, and the edge also became black. Black shrank into a ball.

One miss, the poisonous corpse will naturally not let it go, red veins appeared faintly on the black skin, one of the poisonous corpses suddenly turned its head and "looked" in the direction of Shen Liaobai, perhaps aware of it With a breath, he ran straight towards Shen Liaobai.

"Be careful, one of them is heading towards you." Chu Yuyang shouted at Shen Liaobai.

He jumped off the wall, obviously wanting to rescue Shen Liaobai first, but he was surrounded by two poisonous corpses, he couldn't keep a distance, the blade in his hand was difficult to manipulate, and he had no time to care about Shen Liaobai, these things are not afraid of pain and Without consciousness, even if their feet are cut off, they can continue to move with their severed limbs.

Even with Chu Yuyang's reminder, Shen Liaobai couldn't dodge. Now he has one foot in the hole, half of his body is hanging in the air, and the poisonous corpse stretches out its hand, just reaching for his leg, and with a push of its skinny claws, Then he was pulled down alive.Shen Liaobai's hands were still digging on the wall, and with such a pull, the nails scratched down along the hard earth wall, and the nail caps of the two fingers were scratched off abruptly, choking into the flesh, if it wasn't for biting Shen Liaobai would definitely bite his tongue out of the fiery gauze bag.

The left hand was bloody and bloody, and the blood flowed out from the fingers, staining the clothes.The poisonous corpses were attracted by the strong blood, turned their heads to look at Shen Liaobai, and the clay pots placed in the depths of the tomb vibrated one after another, making the sound of cracking, and there was the sound of fingernails scratching and pulling the pots in the unbroken pots. Sharp and strange sounds echoed one after another in the tomb.

The poisonous corpse was standing in front of him now, the smell of the corpse almost made Shen Liaobai faint, black venom flowed out from the mouth of the poisonous corpse, dripping on the ground, Shen Liaobai didn't see it until he got close The soil on the ground was corroded by the venom and turned black, and the black gradually spread towards the surroundings. The pit that was originally the size of a fingernail suddenly expanded to the size of a palm.

Blocked by the poisonous corpse, Shen Liaobai couldn't see the situation of the poisonous corpse clearly. On the other hand, in his current situation, he would definitely not be able to escape. It would be good if Chu Yunyang could rely on his ability to attract the poisonous corpse to escape. Chu Yuyang had saved him so many times, and he was still alive.

Ignoring the pain, he bent up and took out the dragon scales in his boots, aiming at the poisonous corpse's foot and stabbing it down. The poisonous corpse did not shatter like a muddy hand, but pierced through his sole, but successfully attracted the poisonous corpse. attention.

The other foot of the poisonous corpse stepped on Shen Liaobai's arm, Shen Liaobai closed his eyes subconsciously, quickly pulled out the dragon scale and rolled to the side, the foot brushed against his ear, creating a deep hole , It can be seen that the strength is great, if you step on his hand, don't want this arm.

Shen Liaobai was panting roughly, the poisonous corpse stretched out its arms to strangle him by the neck, and lifted him up abruptly, Shen Liaobai only felt a lump of air in his chest that made him extremely uncomfortable, and there was a scalding burning on his neck Sensation, and the skin veins of the poisonous corpse seemed to be turning red.The dragon scale fell off during the struggle just now, and now he can only break off the finger of the poisonous corpse, but he has exhausted all his strength, but he is unable to break it off a little bit, and the finger is even soaked in the venom, which is excruciatingly painful.

I'm afraid I have to explain here today, Shen Liaobai thought with a swollen head, and then there was darkness in front of his eyes.
