Tomb Raiders

Chapter 40 The Shrimp Corpse [Inverted V]

The snake quickly sensed Shen Liaobai's existence. It spit out thick and long snake letters, and the huge human face formed on the folds was facing Shen Liaobai. With the slight contraction of the muscles, the expression on the human face changed subtly. It seemed even more treacherous and terrifying.

The snake did not approach Shen Liaobai hastily, it stopped rolling and flapping around, and stared down at Shen Liaobai's movements not far from Shen Liaobai.

Shen Liaobai's face became paler, he took a deep breath, the faint white mist dispersed in the sunlight, and then he took a step in the direction of the snake.

Following his movements, the snake raised its head high and made an attacking gesture. Shen Liaobai took another step forward. Following this step, the snake suddenly attacked Shen Liaobai, opening his In the snake's mouth, yellowish venom stuck to the two fangs, and the strong stench made Shen Liaobai frowned, almost wanting to cover his mouth and nose.

However, before he could make any movement in the future, the huge head of the transformed snake stopped in front of him, a drop of venom dripped from the snake's teeth, making a small hole in the ground, and the scarlet tongue tip rested on Shen Liaobai In front of him, Shen Liaobai's expression remained unchanged, he blinked slowly, and did not retreat.

The snake slowly closed its big snake kiss, and used the snake letter to continuously check around Shen Liaobai's body as if full of doubts, and finally backed away, making a gesture of unwillingness to approach Shen Liaobai not far away.

Outside the silk thread, Qin Zhaonan was dumbfounded, "What's going on?"

Chu Yuyang didn't speak, but slowly let go of the hand holding the branch, and a few pieces of bark fell down rustlingly.

Shen Liaobai stopped at the same spot for a while, tentatively approaching the snake slowly, the snake obviously couldn't avoid him, when Shen Liaobai approached, he would twist his body and make a move to avoid him.

After estimating the maximum distance that the snake could accept, Shen Liaobai stood quietly for a while, then slowly took out the paper bag Wen Hao gave him from his bosom, and sprinkled it on the ground around the snake, The snake didn't care about this realgar smell, it just paid attention to Shen Liaobai, and if Shen Liaobai got too close, it would move away.

After Shen Liaobai sprinkled it, looking from Chu Yuyang, he could barely see the thin yellow powder forming a circle around the snake, Qin Zhaonan frowned and said: "This can't trap the snake, you What does Master Shen want to do?"

Shen Liaobai stood outside the powder holding the dagger and hesitated for a while, then put the dagger back, and began to pick up the dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground, and covered them on the snake repelling powder. His movements were slow and steady until the cover was covered. I removed a thick layer of dead branches, leaving only a small gap, and cleaned up the branches and leaves outside the circle.At the same time, the snake began to be restless, raised its head slightly, and kept swallowing letters, trying to find a way to leave this place.

Shen Liaobai's movements were still steady, he took out the torch from his bosom, and lit the powder on the gap that wasn't covered with branches and leaves.

Because most of the powder is realgar, it immediately ignites when it encounters an open flame, and spreads along the circle arranged by Shen Liaobai.

Shen Liaobai took a few steps back, covered his mouth and nose and looked at it quietly for a while. Although these snake repellent powders were not enough to make snakes avoid them, the smell they produced after burning was very pungent, stronger than its original smell. It was unbearable, and with the smoke caused by burning dead branches, after a while, the place where the snake was located was surrounded by blazing flames.

Hua Snake hates high temperature and dryness even more than ordinary snakes. Almost as soon as the flame ignited, he became manic. However, the strong sulfur smell in the smoke mixed with the strong scent of She Mie Men made it unable to move freely. Get out of the ring of fire.

Shen Liaobai cautiously stood at a place a little further away watching, seeing the snake gradually limp its huge body as the smoke became thicker, he was slightly relieved, only then realized that his back was wet and cold Covered in cold sweat, he subconsciously raised his head to look at the place where Chu Yuyang was, but he didn't see his figure. When he was wondering, his waist tightened, and he was carried away from the place.

The body was only tense for a moment, then Shen Liaobai relaxed, Chu Yuyang took him further away before putting him down, frowning: "Since it's over, what are you still standing there for?"

Shen Liaobai smiled slightly, his eyes sparkled and said: "A little soft."

Chu Yuyang looked at him carefully, and after confirming that there was no wound, he looked at the place where the snake was. The place was already smoky, and even the giant snake could not be seen clearly.

"Get out of here quickly, even if Master Shen cleans up the branches and leaves outside the fire circle, there is no guarantee that the fire will not spread." Qin Zhaonan also got off the tree and walked to them.

Shen Liaobai said: "I asked Hao earlier that Hanzhang was looking for a way, and I don't know what the situation is." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice from the dense forest on the left, "Da Lang, Master Shen!"

Hanzhang struggled out of the bushes in a bit of embarrassment, sweating profusely: "I found the way, where is the snake?"

Qin Zhaonan pointed over there with the tip of his fan, "Here, it's over there, maybe we can taste the taste of grilled snake meat."

Chu Yuyang acted as if he had never heard Qin Zhaonan's words, and after simply asking Hanzhang if he had found the way, he turned around and walked away.

Hanzhang was a little confused, he looked at the burning flames over there, then at Shen Liaobai whose face was turning blue from the cold, hesitantly asked: "What happened?"

Qin Zhaonan put Hanzhang's shoulders with a smile on his face, took him aside and whispered for a while, when Hanzhang came back, Shen Liaobai felt that Hanzhang's eyes were full of surprise and admiration, Make him very uncomfortable.

At this time Chu Yuyang came back again, followed by Wen Hao, Chu Yuyang held the big coat thrown by Shen Liaobai in his hand, he handed the big coat to Shen Liaobai, watched him put it on, and then opened his mouth Said: "Hanzhang said that you can go to the southeast for a short distance to reach the cave that Qin Zhaonan mentioned. At this time, it is not safe to stay in this dense forest or go back to the grassland last night. Let's go to the cave."

Wen Hao came up to feel Shen Liaobai's pulse, heaved a sigh of relief, and complained: "Master is too bold, this realgar powder can be burned, and the effect is stronger, but the smell is not only snakes, but also people smell it." There is also a risk of poisoning."

Shen Liaobai smiled and did not refute. Ren Wenhao checked him again from head to toe.

It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, so everyone followed Hanzhang to the southeast.

Not long after they left, they heard a neighing sound from the woods behind them. This sound was very similar to the one that frightened the vines back then. Wen Hao looked back and said worriedly: "Could it be that the snake is still alive?"

Chu Yuyang walked beside Shen Liaobai, held Shen Liaobai's hand, and said calmly: "There is more than one snake here, the treaty just now is the leader of the snake group, no matter what, the snake will not let the leader Just die."

Shen Liaobai's face was still a little pale, it was the first time he shook hands with Chu Yuyang in front of so many people, it was always a little awkward, but Chu Yuyang didn't let go, in order to divert attention, Shen Liaobai said: "Then What should I do?"

"It's okay, I'm afraid that group of snakes won't come to trouble us in a short time." Qin Zhaonan tapped his palm with a fan while smiling, looking at the two of them meaningfully.

It wasn't until Shen Liaobai's neck started to turn red from embarrassment that Chu Yuyang let him go, "Is it still cold?"

Shen Liaobai shook his head hastily.Chu Yuyang stretched out his hand to touch his cheek, and Yuemo was barely satisfied, so he stopped walking close to him.

Qin Zhaonan asked curiously: "By the way, Master Shen, why didn't that transformed snake attack you?"

Shen Liaobai was startled, opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain, hesitated for a while, couldn't help but look up at Chu Yuyang.

Chu Yuyang glanced at him, and said coldly, "This has nothing to do with you."

Qin Zhaonan muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, and finally calmed down.A group of people walked for half an hour in the dense forest, and then arrived at the place where the cave was.

Seen from a distance, the cave is covered by dense plants, it is really difficult to find, everyone went outside the cave, after Hanzhang cleaned up the vines covering the cave, Chu Yuyang only took a look, and said: "This It's a burglary."

Qin Zhaonan stepped forward to touch the edge of the cave, and rarely frowned, "Smooth and flat, the inside of the cave slopes down, and the slope is gentle. The person who made this cave is really busy, and even carved flowers?"

Shen Liaobai suddenly remembered the traces left by Shen Yingqing in Zhang Jiao's tomb, so he stepped forward and said, "Let me see."

Qin Zhaonan pointed out the location for him, and Shen Liaobai squatted at the entrance of the cave to examine it carefully. Indeed, as Qin Zhaonan said, the pattern resembled a flower, but due to the change of the environment, this scribbled picture has become blurred. I can't figure out what the painting is.

He sighed, straightened up, looked at Chu Yuyang, Chu Yuyang took out a blade, and used the machine to shoot the blade into the cave, and soon the blade hit the bottom.

Chu Yuyang retracted the blade slowly, and said: "It's not very deep, let's go down and have a look first." After saying that, he was the first to enter the cave.

Not long after entering the entrance of the cave, it began to fall into darkness. Shen Liaobai and Wen Hao, who were walking in the middle, took out the bonfire, and the light green light illuminated the narrow but clean and flat robbery cave.

As Chu Yuyang said, it didn't take long to reach the bottom, but what they saw in front of them made everyone speechless for a while.At the bottom of the robbery cave, at the left turn, there were several corpses lying down, each of them described as shriveled, with painful faces, and under the light of green fireflies, they looked even more terrifying.

"This...what's going on..." Wen Hao murmured.
