Tomb Raiders

Chapter 35

Qin Zhaonan found a branch at random, pushed aside the stumped limbs that had fallen on the ground, and then walked forward on the knee-high weeds. Without the path stepped on by his predecessors, the journey up the mountain seemed laborious and strenuous. The weeds had barbed thorns, hooking his clothes from time to time. He walked a few steps ahead and wanted to cut a path with the branches.

Laifu and Zhaocai had just had a battle, exhausted their energy, and rested in the hoods of their respective masters.

Shen Liaobai was still a little concerned about what Ayun just said. Bees live in groups, and there are hundreds of bees in a hive. Just now, these mysterious bees were also dispatched in groups, so there are probably other mysterious bees nearby. , he stared at the body of Xuan Feng on the ground for a long time, and then followed the pace of the team under Han Zhang's urging.

"Master Shen, don't worry about it," Hanzhang said with a smile, "The Xuanfeng is so big, if you see it then just run away."

Wen Hao glanced at him dissatisfied, and said: "You said so lightly, just now you have seen their speed, if you meet a group, you may not be able to run away."

After finishing speaking, he walked together with Qin Zhaonan who was in front, and ignored Hanzhang.Shen Liaobai, who was walking behind, saw everything in his eyes. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it. This kind of strange thoughts lingered in his mind all the time.

"What's wrong?" Chu Yuyang's fingertips brushed over Shen Liaobai's slightly frowning brows.

Shen Liaobai hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I was worrying too much."

Although the road ahead was overgrown with weeds, it was fairly easy to walk, and the mysterious bee that I was worried about before did not appear again.The area in the south of the Lingnan area is humid and humid, and the forests are still lush. If you go further up, you will see many big trees with luxuriant branches and leaves intertwined with their roots.Because it had rained a few days ago, the moisture in the mountains and forests was particularly thick. It was already noon, and some trees still had dewdrops on their leaves.

I don't know if it was because he was not used to this humid environment, Shen Liaobai felt extremely uncomfortable, he walked silently beside Chu Yuyang, his ears were full of buzzing tinnitus.

Hanzhang turned around and saw Shen Liaobai's pale face, he immediately stopped and asked, "Master Shen, are you feeling unwell?"

Just then, Chu Yuyang was only focused on observing the surroundings to guard against danger. Hearing Hanzhang's words, he turned his head to look at Shen Liaobai. His originally rosy lips had turned pale. In such a cold weather, there were beads of sweat on his forehead. Falling.

Shen Liaobai was panting roughly, holding Chu Yuyang's arm to barely stand still, and his voice was intermittent, "Jianyang, I feel something is wrong, there is something wrong here."

"Don't talk." There was a slight fluctuation in Chu Yuyang's plain voice, he wrapped Shen Liaobai in his arms, and let Shen Liaobai stand against his body.

"That land is clean." Hanzhang pointed to the shadow of a big tree and said.

Chu Yuyang helped Shen Liaobai to sit down and let him drink some water, but he still didn't improve, and there were faint red bumps on his pale skin.

"Is Mrs. Shen weak?" Ayun looked at Shen Liaobai's appearance, and said anxiously: "I used to look like this, and my father would go to the mountains to pick some herbs for me to chew and eat. Just for a moment, there should be one in this mountain, so I'll look for it right away."

"No need, Ayun," Shen Liaobai stretched out his hand to hold Ayun's clothes with great effort, and said, "I'm not physically weak, this place is dangerous, we'd better leave quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of wings vibrating everywhere, Shen Liaobai had heard this sound just now, it was the sound of black bees flapping their wings, the sound was indeed a large group, I was really afraid of something.

Chu Yuyang frowned, helped Shen Liaobai up and said, "Let's go."

The sound of Xuanfeng came from far and near, as if it was behind him, Shen Liaobai seemed to feel the wind blowing from their huge wings, but he was weak now, and he couldn't run fast even with the support of Chu Yuyang.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask Chu Yuyang to go first, something seemed to wrap around his feet, dragged him to the ground, and quickly backed away. Shen Liaobai was dragged quickly, and the sharp stone under his abdomen The block was so worn that he couldn't even make a sound of shouting, and when he closed his eyes, the last memory remained on the gray soil above the cave, followed by a large stretch of interlaced vines covering the cave, blocking the only bright light.

I don't know how long it took for Shen Liaobai to wake up in pain, because he was dragged by something strange, and his clothes also cut a few holes. When he fell into this cave from the ground, his jaw hit the stone, and now he is in pain Fortunately, the state of exhaustion has improved.

There was something sticky on his left hand, Shen Liaobai stretched out his left hand in front of his eyes, and when he got closer, it was a light yellow liquid, which smelled sweet and greasy, like honey?When he sat up halfway, he saw clearly that there were several puddles of undried honey on the floor of the cave.

He still remembered that when he fell into the cave, it should have been dark inside, but now there was a soft light that made him proud to see everything in front of him, and his dull thoughts slowly turned back, only then did he realize that the walls of the cave were actually glowing. Bright warm yellow light.Shen Liaobai wanted to move to the wall to have a closer look, but when he moved, he realized that there was a green vine wrapped around his ankle.

This vine was as thick as an adult's forearm. Looking along the vine, it turned out that the opposite wall was covered with such unknown vines.In the middle of each vine, there is a pot-shaped sac, which is pink in color, and several of the sacs are still wriggling.

Shen Liaobai stared at these wriggling sacs, fearing that something would come out of them, he nestled the dragon scales inserted in his boots in his hand, and one sac began to wriggle violently, covering the branches and leaves above the sac It was pushed away, and a black bee crawled out from inside.He was startled, and was about to back away, but saw the pink sac suddenly expanded, swallowing the black bee again, the pink sac shook twice, and then returned to its original shape.

The buzzing of the Xuanfeng also stopped.

Shen Liaobai swallowed his saliva, thinking that the ones locked in these sacs were all mysterious bees, even the mysterious bees could not fight against these weird vines, let alone him who was weak at this time, the reason why the vines dragged him to The cave is intended to use him as food for the winter.

Shen Liaobai calmed down a little, and stabbed the dragon scale in his hand towards the vine wrapped around his feet, but he didn't expect the vine to be so tough, even after a few stabs, it only pierced the skin, and a little white juice flowed out.

As if aware of his intentions, the vines pulled him to the edge of the wall. Several shriveled sacs began to expand slowly, and white liquid oozed from the bottom of the sacs, which unfortunately dripped on Shen Liaobai's body, revealing The clothes seeped into the skin, and that piece of skin was numb, Shen Liaobai hurriedly tore off the piece of clothes and threw it away.

The other vines that were originally entangled on the wall slowly stretched out like a swimming snake. At first, they were tentative, but later seeing that Shen Liaobai was not a threat, they simply stretched out, trying to wrap around Shen Liaobai's wrist.

The dragon scales were useless to them, Shen Liaobai was only stunned for a while, then put away the dragon scales, and drew out another dagger that was with him, this dagger was prepared by Chu Yuyang before he left, the way is to use Xuan Forged from iron, it was very sharp. Shen Liaobai held it and cut the vines around his feet, and he really cut off the vines.

It seems that this vine is not a monster, so the dragon scale is useless to it.

The vines hanging on the wall began to rustle, Shen Liaobai hurriedly got up, this is not the cave he fell into earlier, because he did not see the hole covered by the vines at the top of the cave.This cave is connected to two passages, one on the left and one on the left. If he waits for Chu Yuyang to come to rescue him in this cave, he may have already been eaten by the vines. If he runs wrong, he may not escape. Death, Shen Liaobai hesitated for a moment, then ran to the cave on the left.

The vines almost followed him and caught up with Xuanfeng's speed. Shen Liaobai was not good at running, so he almost got entangled by the vines chasing behind him several times.This corridor is not completely dark, the walls emit dots of light, illuminating the road ahead, so Shen Liaobai can clearly see that there are many adjacent caves on both sides of the road he is running through.

There are many broken wings scattered on this corridor, as well as the whole corpse of a black bee. Shen Liaobai finally tripped over a corpse of a black bee, and the vines quickly paraded to him, high and low Raising the branches, Shen Liaobai closed his eyes subconsciously. He didn't hear the sound of the vines moving for a long time. When he opened his eyes, the body of the mysterious bee in the corridor had disappeared.

Shen Liaobai let out a sigh of relief, escaped temporarily, he looked around, the structure of the cave beside this corridor was the same as the cave he stayed in before, one side of the wall was protruded from nowhere The vines are covered, the difference is that the sacs of these vines are all bulging, obviously there is something inside.

They are now in a state of full food and are not aggressive for the time being. Shen Liaobai stood up lightly, for fear of disturbing the hundreds of vines in these caves.

If his guess is correct, this place is likely to be a beehive. There is enough space under the ground for the mysterious bees to fly in and out of it. According to A Yun, the mysterious bees will fly underground to reproduce in winter. These small caves are Where the brood was, it's just now overrun by these vines.

The mysterious bees on the ground should have escaped from here. They tried to lure Chu Yuyang and his party to pass by here to become food for the vines, and then took the opportunity to rescue the young bees.It's just that it's too late now, and the young bees have been eaten up by the vines.

Shen Liaobai sighed and regained his energy. In this environment where he could be attacked at any time, and without Chu Yuyang by his side, he couldn't slack off in the slightest.

The sound of stones rolling suddenly came from the silent corridor, and at the corner only a few steps away from him, Shen Liaobai was startled, and committed himself to hiding in a nearby cave, where the vine pouches were shriveled. , It seems that he has sucked the young bees inside, if he makes a big move, he will definitely wake them up, and there are rustling sounds in the corridor from time to time, coming towards his cave.

It is true that there were tigers and leopards before and jackals after.

Shen Liaobai took a deep breath, collected his mind, and planned to get rid of the things in the corridor first, so that there was still a chance of running.As if aware of his presence, the corridor was silent.

Probably because his senses are particularly sensitive in times of crisis, Shen Liaobai could feel the thing slowly approaching here, there was only a thin wall between them, he held his breath, and waited for the thing to walk into the cave, Shicai clenched the dagger in his hand, and stabbed it out...
