Tomb Raider Bronze Door Twins
Chapter 179 I am here
Zhang Qiling suddenly put away the knife. His wrist bones now made a sound like breaking kiln chips, but the tight connection between the skin and flesh did not allow his wrist to be completely broken. The feeling of coldness that made all the bones in his body crisp was like soaking himself in dry ice, and waiting for the ice chamber to be opened to freeze him into purple.
Even the breath that comes out of the nose is cold, and all the air that leaks out of the body is so cold that it stings.
"Don't move." Yan Bucun grasped Zhang Qiling's sleeve soothingly. He once again developed his perception, scanning the entire space like an X-ray. The long and infinitely extended corridor, all the mechanisms behind the murals were exposed, and the densely packed gears kept turning, revealing the holes behind the circular holes one after another. Those hidden compartments secretly housed tens of thousands of snakes that were big enough to devour people.
They pressed each other, entangled, and wanted to escape restlessly. In their cold eyes, there was only the heat of Zhang Qiling and Yan Bucun's two living bodies, which was as tempting as Tang Monk's flesh.
Perhaps Yan Bushun could guess that they were not dead creatures, and the reason they could live so long and still maintain the instinctive habits of snakes was simply because there were many of their kind, and thousands of years of intertwining and strangling allowed them to survive by devouring each other. What's more, the digestion time of snakes after eating is extremely long. As long as they eat each other, they can live longer. Why not do it?
While he was thinking about this, several snakes rushed out from the holes in the murals. But Zhang Qiling moved his ears and felt something was wrong. The constant collision sounds were like real living creatures inside trying to break through the wall. Amid the clanging and banging sounds, there was also the sound of snakes greedily spitting out their tongues, which made people feel their scalp tingling.
There are much larger creatures inside, bigger than those little minions, even...
Yan Bucun's bullet hit the snake's vital point accurately. The bang bang sound of the gun made people panic. He obviously realized that there might be a snake king or an anaconda in this water tomb. The size and sound even made the two people feel that they were facing a behemoth that penetrated a wall.
The coldness of the knife was no match for the trembling in his body. This was an instinctive fear of creatures stronger than himself. The sleeve of Zhang Qiling's hand was tightly grasped by Yan Bucun. He could only kill these flying snakes with one hand. Blood splattered everywhere. It was cold, only endless cold...
It's also very tiring, just like a chase I've experienced before, where I slashed, tore, and felt the pain based on my instinct, until I became numb, exhausted both physically and mentally, but I wouldn't stop.
"Can I borrow your bead?" Yan Bucun snatched the red jade bead from Zhang Qiling's chest and threw it out at lightning speed.
The red jade bead instantly burst into light, bringing with it an extreme heat like a burning torch, and like a shooting white phosphorus arrow, making people unable to help but block the highly radioactive light with one hand.
Zhang Qiling opened and closed his eyes, but felt the ground shaking beneath his feet. With the help of Yan Buchun, he steadied himself, only to find that what he was standing on was no longer ordinary ground, but a tide of snakes that were big enough to swallow people. They were like crazy, merging into an indestructible wave, as straight as the dragon that had been painted on the mural, opening their bloody mouths towards the red jade bead, intending to bite it with one blow.
"Run!!!" Yan Bugun shouted and dragged Zhang Qiling to run madly in the opposite direction of the snake tide. The wind that instantly swept through the air blew out all the burning torches. The entire corridor was dark, with only the red jade bead emitting an eye-catching scarlet.
Like blood,
Zhang Qiling felt this way for some reason.
He ran steadily and quickly, but when he thought about the red jade bead being the key to get in, he felt very sorry. He didn't know what the future held. Apart from these snakes, would Yan Guangxian reserve any other scares for them?
The mural also flew past quickly, from two men leaning on each other, to a tense situation, with burning arrows full of anger, lighting up a whole osmanthus tree, and the sparks that lit up the whole night were swaying continuously, followed by the trampling of soldiers and horses on the ground, and yellow sand flying everywhere.
Yan Xiaonan, dressed in armor, jumped down from the high horse and spread out the imperial edict. Yan Guangshan's eyes were filled with astonishment, and a bloody fight ensued. The mad Yan Guangshan nailed Yan Xiaonan's limbs with a spear. His mouth seemed half open, as if he wanted to say something.
Zhang Qiling only saw these in the end, because it was too dark. In the space where there was only the friction of scales and intense breathing, he could only feel the absolutely scorching temperature of Yan Bucun.
Even better than the red jade beads.
The poisonous creature hidden in the mural had already opened its eyes. Its eyes were blocked on the hole that could not allow it to get out. It rotated and observed until it quickly glanced at the red jade bead that was about to roll to the ground. Only then did it have a look that was slightly not that of an animal.
The giant snake changed, with mimicry like an octopus. Its hand suddenly stretched out from the cave and instantly grabbed the red jade bead. It was a human hand, slender and white. Then, in the next second, the wall began to shatter under the weight because of the vibration of the snake tide just now and its own movement.
Until with a loud bang, the wall made of meteorite iron exploded instantly like a kiln that was burning to the extreme, and it walked out of it, playing with the only source of light in the crow-black snake tide. The red jade bead flickered in its palm, and the soul kept bumping against it, like a Heluo fish wrapped inside that was about to break out of its shell, and then the light bloomed completely, illuminating its face red.
The face without facial features changed rapidly, and what was finally formed was actually the face of a strange person transformed into a human. It was Yan Yi and also Chen Shisan.
It seems that it has not given up on Yan Bucun yet.
"Almost there!" Yan Bucun did not look back, he knew that the snake king seemed to have come out, but in such a crisis, he had time to worry about Zhang Qiling's body becoming increasingly stiff. He was like a corpse whose limbs were frozen to the point where they could not move.
After Qingru used her own blood to save Zhang Qiling, she actually thought about what the side effects might be, but all her imagination was not enough to show its true impact.
He could not have imagined that the so-called side effects would be so bad to the God he loved. Now, the fingertips that were holding Zhang Qiling's cuffs were numb and painful due to the cold, as if they were touching dry ice directly.
Until Yan Bugun stopped in front of the bronze door for a moment. The sound of dense scales colliding behind him was still ringing. In order to fight for the red jade beads, the snakes climbed up the body of the snake king, trying to find a place to bite on the smooth but extremely hard "human" skin, and their fangs filled with venom were grinding with a squeaking sound.
But now, Zhang Qiling was just used to being cold, so he concentrated his mind, lowered his eyes to look at the little Yan Bucun who was two heads shorter than him, and pushed his hand away, "I'll do it."
The mechanism in front of him was illuminated by the flashlight that Zhang Qiling took out. It was not the text disc encountered before, but a large lock fastened to the bronze door, similar to the Lugong lock, but not made of wood. Its shape and texture were more like extremely finely carved meteorite jade, and the overall color was an extremely clear emerald green without any impurities.
If there were not some gaps between the interlocking rings, perhaps this thing would not be considered a lock that can be unlocked. To put it simply, it is more suitable to be placed in an exhibition hall and be regarded as the most perfect exhibit than to be in a tomb.
"No need." Yan Bucun looked at Zhang Qiling's hands which were covered with a layer of ice, and then he went directly to the bronze door to unlock it. He had been trained by the Yan family, and although he could not be as familiar and proficient in the mechanisms as the Zhang family, for him, this thing would just take some time.
What he was even more afraid of was that Zhang Qiling would cripple his hand in order for the two of them to escape successfully.
But before Yan Bucun could untie it, he felt a gust of wind brushing past his ears, and then the bead was thrown with great force, shattering the meteorite jade Lugong lock with its super hardness, and embedded into the bronze door in one fell swoop. It could not stop rotating and rubbing in the pit that was smashed, and the person behind him laughed from far to near:
"Long time no see. As an acquaintance, I'll give you three minutes to escape." Guaiguai walked out from the tide of snakes. All the snakes were squeezed on the ground, wriggling together, as if it was manipulating the escaping blood.
The two did not respond in time. It was Yan Bucun who took the first step. He reached out and took down the red jade bead on the door, and then put it back on Zhang Qiling's neck. Then, he gently fiddled with the red jade bead with his hot fingertips, signaling the other party to keep it well.
Zhang Qiling followed Yan Bucun's movements and subconsciously held the beads in his hands. A strange warm current flowed through his fingertips and penetrated his whole body bit by bit, and the rooted coolness was pulled out one after another.
"Why should we listen to you?" Yan Bucun looked at Zhang Qiling with relief, but when he turned his head to look at Guaiguai, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
After hearing this, Guaiguai casually pulled away a snake that was wrapped around his neck, as if brushing off dust, "Because this is my territory, and besides, you've already wasted a minute."
"I didn't agree, so your timing won't work on me. Besides, in this one minute, these little guys will almost bite you all over. Are you sure you still want to stand still with me?" Yan Bucun didn't say so much to the other party because he was stupid. He was just waiting for the bronze door mechanism to open after the Lugong lock fell to the ground.
At least it will take two minutes.
The snakes piled up like a raging wave that wanted to swallow people. Guaiguai stood there, blinking his red eyes. He didn't hide his teasing. "So what? You can't do anything to me, and these little creatures can't do anything to me either. In order to survive, the weak always need to huddle together for warmth. Don't you understand this truth? They are a group of low-level creatures attacking me. Doesn't it prove that I am strong enough to make them tremble?"
Zhang Qiling's gaze was fixed on Guaiguai. Even though he was a slow-moving person, he could hear the other party's implicit meaning. The so-called little things and weaklings also included himself and Yan Bucun. What an arrogant person! Why did he feel somewhat familiar with him but had never seen him before?
The hand that was only grasping the hilt of the knife gradually regained consciousness due to the heat of the red jade bead. Zhang Qiling moved his wrist, murderous intent rising in his heart. Although Yan Bucun signaled him not to act, he preferred to be one step ahead of others rather than waiting.
It was at this moment that Zhang Qiling instantly swung out his single-edged sword. The sword spun rapidly in the corridor, and the force exerted was so great that people mistakenly thought that this speed would split the space.
Guaiguai did not retreat, but just watched with interest the rapidly approaching soft blade, as if he was not the one who was about to be killed, he was just like an outsider.
Yan Bucun was also counting the seconds in his heart. When he realized that all of Guaiguai's attention was attracted by Zhang Qiling's knife, the bronze door suddenly opened.
Yan Bucun turned around instantly, grabbed Zhang Qiling's sleeve and ran directly inside. He was not a coward, but in the current situation, a shrunken self and Zhang Qiling who had just recovered, in fact, they could not be compared with a perverted monster.
But who knew that one step inside would lead to a void that plunged vertically downwards. Yan Bucun didn't care about subconsciously absorbing Xiaocun's strength and what unexpected situations might happen. He just hugged Zhang Qiling tightly and cushioned himself under him, fearing that the god he loved would be hurt in the slightest.
Zhang Qiling had already adjusted his posture in mid-air, but who would have thought that he would be tied up by Yan Bucun around the waist. The heat, which was strong enough to melt everything, seemed to make his brain dull.
"Yan Bu Cun." The sound of falling wind almost drowned out Zhang Qiling's voice.
Yan Bucun, who was hugging him, thought Zhang Qiling was nervous, so he hugged him tighter, as if to prove his loyalty, "I'm here."
I am always here, anytime, anywhere, as long as you want, I am here.
"Let go." Zhang Qiling's sixth sense made him keenly aware that the wind was getting smaller and the sound of waves on the water was getting closer and closer to him. He was ready to land.
For the first time, Yan Bucun acted like a child. After loosening his hands slightly, he tightly grasped the hem of Zhang Qiling's clothes again. Perhaps it was his shrunken body that finally gave him the courage to act like a spoiled child. In the bone-chilling cold wind, he was so passionate that even his forced smile was like the warm sun, ostentatious and unscrupulous, "No, I want to hold Ah Qi forever!"
Unfortunately, Zhang Qiling could not see Yan Bushun's smile from this position, and he did not really care how long the so-called forever on the other side's lips would last. He could feel that he was a person who ignored time, so he felt for no reason that no one would accompany him forever.
After all, the word "forever" is too absolute and too far away. No one can guarantee that the promise made at this moment will still be effective thousands and thousands of years later. So Zhang Qiling said again, "Let go."
Zhang Qiling didn't believe it, so he could easily get rid of Yan Bucun's heart. And it was precisely because he didn't love her that he was so resolute and ruthless.
"Aqi..." Yan Bucun's voice was a little muffled at this moment. The original joy had been completely restrained because of the attitude shown by the other party.
He once again became the serious businessman who had lived for a thousand years.
Zhang Qiling only put his arms around his waist, without overstepping the boundaries or getting close to him. It was as if he was fulfilling his responsibility as a partner to ensure that Yan Bucun would not die in front of him.
"We're here." said Zhang Qiling.
After saying that, the two of them finally fell into the water, shivering again from the cold.
