Tomb Raiders

There was a sticky smell in the air, which made people palpitate after smelling it for a long time. Others might not be aware of it, but Shen Liaobai's keen sense of smell smelled a little fishy smell. It was not bloody smell, but something that had been left for a long time. The rotten smell that emanates makes people feel sick after smelling it for a long time.

Chu Yuyang was very worried about his obviously yellow complexion, so Qin Zhaonan led the way all the way, and he walked beside Shen Liaobai all the time, protecting him in a safe position intentionally or unintentionally. His eagle-like sharp eyes Scan the area illuminated by torches, beware of possible dangers at any time.

A large part of the long passageway is submerged in darkness. Naturally, the passage of time is unknown here. A group of people have walked for a long time, but the front is still boundless darkness, gloomy, which makes people feel creepy. Shen Liaobai only felt that the atmosphere was extremely depressing with the deliberately low breathing.

"Are we going around in circles?" Shen Liaobai asked, because someone had cast a spell in the corridor in Zhangjiao's tomb before, confusing their eyes and making them hang around in the same place for a long time. The reference thing, even if you go back and forth, you won't notice it.

"There are no traces of artificial construction here, and there will be no artificially placed spells." Chu Yuyang explained: "It may be the visual fatigue caused by looking at the same thing for too long. Why don't you close your eyes and rest for a while? you go."

Shen Liaobai was about to laugh, but he heard Qin Zhaonan, who was walking in front, say: "Ahead..." He took two steps forward and looked where Qin Zhaonan could see. There was nothing but a similar tunnel ahead, but There is one more shadow that the torch cannot illuminate.

Chu Yuyang finally left Shen Liaobai's side and stepped forward to have a look. After confirming that it was safe, he waved to several people to come over. For the unexplored corridors, it would be safer to gather together.

The place where this torch can't illuminate is a low cave, only half a person's height, the cave entrance is sealed by dense spider silk, the spider silk seems to have just knotted, and there is still crystal slime on it, so it is naturally untouchable , Qin Zhaonan simply and neatly sent the torch forward, instantly burning all the spider threads at the entrance of the cave.

Qin Zhaonan was about to go in, but Shen Liaobai grabbed his arm first. Shen Liaobai covered his nose, frowned slightly with his delicate brows, and said in a bad tone: "It smells so bad."

As he said, everyone just discovered the smell, probably because they had been in the cave for a long time, so their noses were less sensitive to smells. Fortunately, for Shen Liaobai, the smell was stench, but for others , It's just ordinary corruption, but Qin Zhaonan really hesitated for a moment, he also felt that the action just now was a bit reckless, so he just stayed at the entrance of the cave, leaned half of his body in, and stretched out the torch to see as much as possible The place.

Although the entrance of the cave was a little lower, the space inside was as tall as a person. He saw something white in the corner near him, but he couldn't be sure what it was. What a tall hole.

Qin Zhaonan explained what he had found, and Chu Yuyang went in to have a look again, making sure that the description was correct. At this moment, a new choice came up, whether to go down the corridor or go to the cave to have a look first.

"What if this cave is the exit?" Qin Zhaonan asked.

This possibility was not ruled out, but seeing Shen Liaobai's resistance to the cave, Chu Yuyang still felt that there was something weird in the cave, "For safety, let's walk along the corridor." He said.

Shen Liaobai was almost fainted by the stench, so he naturally agreed with Chu Yuyang's decision, Wen Hao always listened to Chu Yuyang, Qin Zhaonan rubbed the back of his head, and didn't have any doubts, so he jumped over this cave and continued down , but the position changed to Chu Yuyang and Shen Liaobai walking in front, Qin Zhaonan was behind.

This corridor is not straight to the end, they passed through several turning points before, and now they went around a turning point, and they saw the half-person-high cave again, which was not the same as the previous one, because the spider silk at the entrance of the cave was intact lossless.

Chu Yuyang burned the spider silk at the entrance of the cave, and saw some snow-white things scattered around inside, and on the other side of the wall, there was also a cave half the height of a person.

"It's a bit like the black bee's nest we encountered in front of Zhao Tuo's tomb," Shen Liaobai said, "Maybe the caves inside are also connected in all directions, so it's easy to get lost if you rush in."

Chu Yuyang nodded, and said: "What's more, we are in Ming, if there is something inside, we won't even have a chance to escape if we go in."

But this time he was not in a hurry to leave, and handed the torch to Qin Zhaonan, while he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, leaned in, took some snow-white objects nearby, and looked at it carefully in front of the torch.At first glance, this thing looks like silk, but it is thicker than silk, and the color is not so transparent, it is more beige, and the strands are densely arranged together.

Chu Yuyang pinched the other end of the handkerchief and tried to tear some of the threads, and saw that there was a little transparent mucus between each thread, so that they could be completely glued together. I don't know if it was too close to the torch. , These snow-white silk threads slowly melted into water and wet the handkerchief. After a while, even the water stains disappeared.

"What is this?" Qin Zhaonan was completely confused.

Chu Yuyang has never seen this thing before. After all, this is a fairy island. It is not unusual to see whether the following things have been recorded. Only Wenhao showed some clarity and said, "Can Dalang bring some more out to share with me?" have a look."

Then Chu Yuyang lowered his body and went in and took out a large lump, and handed it directly to Wenhao. The three of them watched carefully by the light of the fire, only Shen Liaobai was quite disturbed.

He seemed to hear some wind, even though he had retreated to the wall, the stench was getting heavier and heavier, and there were some small rustling voices, mixed in the voices of the three of them talking from time to time, Shen Liaobai listened It is not real, and it may be an illusion caused by excessive tension.

"It's the silk of a mountain spider." Wen Hao said in amazement, then hurriedly rolled up the handkerchief before the spider silk melted, and put it in his waist pocket.

Shen Liaobai felt that he was talking too much, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Wen Hao as if he had found a treasure and asked, "What's the use?"

Wen Hao explained: "It can stop bleeding and heal internal organ damage. It is a very rare medicinal material. I have only seen similar descriptions in books, but I don't think it really exists."

But Qin Zhaonan and Chu Yuyang's expressions were not friendly, Qin Zhaonan's mouth twitched, and his tone was stiff: "That is to say, there may be a mountain spider living in this cave? No... Maybe it's not one... Then we ..."

His words came to an abrupt end, because when he raised his head, he saw the shadows of a few slender spider legs on the stone wall, and he could see the fluff standing upright on them very clearly, that is to say, at the corner, There was already a mountain spider waiting for them.

Shen Liaobai stood with his back to the corner, so naturally he didn't see any shadows, but the sudden silence of the three of them already made him feel bad, his neck was cold, and he didn't need to guess, there must be something there Behind him, but he has experienced many life and death anyway, not as flustered as before, just looking at Chu Yuyang with his lips tightly pressed.

Chu Yuyang made a silent gesture to them, and then waved his hands, letting them go deep into the corridor, while he was in charge of breaking the back.The group of people did not dare to vent their anger, and moved forward with light footsteps. The torches were getting farther and farther away, and the shadows on the wall were blurred, and finally disappeared, and the spider could not be seen catching up, although it was not [-]% sure that it was a mountain spider. , but judging by the size, j□j is inseparable.

However, we can't relax our vigilance now. The mountain spiders are much more familiar with the terrain here than they are. "Run." After the mountain spiders could not be seen, Chu Yuyang gave the order.

Hearing Chu Yuyang's order, the group of people stopped walking slowly like before, and started running fast. After running for a long time, the mountain spider did not catch up. The four of them obviously couldn't take it anymore, so they stopped to rest one after another.

"Let me tell you, how long is this corridor? Why have you been running for so long without seeing the end?" Qin Zhaonan panted heavily and still complained.

"We didn't run very far," Chu Yuyang said, "Did you realize when we ran just now that the terrain is quite undulating. As a result, our physical strength has been exhausted, so naturally we feel that the distance is far away."

This kind of detail is probably only noticed by Chu Yuyang, while the others are only concerned with running for their lives and frequently looking back to see if the pursuers behind them have arrived.

Shen Liaobai's physical strength was the weakest in the group, and he almost tried his best not to drag everyone down. At this moment, he was so panting that he couldn't even speak, so he leaned his back against the wall and took out the water bottle and took a sip. Only then did he feel better.

Right where they were standing there was a cave half a person's height, covered with spider webs, Shen Liaobai was standing facing the cave at this time, he seemed to be too afraid of the dark, staring at the dark cave entrance A little panicked, the cave stretches in all directions and seems to be connected to every part of the corridor, if the spiders walk through here, they won't be able to detect it at all.

Shen Liaobai's heart sank, and he was about to remind Chu Yuyang to stay away from the entrance of the cave, but it was too late. There was a silver light flashing in the entrance of the cave, and a poisonous needle was stuck in Chu Yuyang's calf. Yang stagnated and fell forward according to his inertia. Shen Liaobai subconsciously reached out to catch him. Before his hand touched the person, he saw a snow-white spider thread jumping out of the cave and entangled in Chu Yuyang's body. With a swish on his calf, he was pulled into the cave.

Shen Liaobai still maintained the posture of receiving people, and stood there in a daze.
