Copper Coins

correct!Isn't this the place where the same lifespan spider might exist in the legend? !

It was really a coincidence that the chasing person came to this place by accident.For a moment, Xue Xian felt a little weird, but before the weird thought really became clear, he subconsciously brushed it away.

The characters on the wall are like heavenly scriptures, except for the three characters of Baichongdong, none of them can be recognized by Xue Xian, which seems to be the characters created by an ancient clan.After watching for a while, Xue Xian finally ran out of patience and looked away.

"There are moths all over the place, and it makes people's skin numb. It's really not a place suitable for staying for a long time." Xue Xian swept the insect corpses falling in front of him, and said with disgust: "There is still a stone road ahead. Let's go, it's good to see anything, anyway, I don't want to meet these pink things again."

Xuan Min looked away from those strange engraved characters, said "Mmm", and without further delay, while coldly sweeping away the moths bumping into him with his wide sleeves, he took Xue Xian to the front with big strides. Stone crossing.

The fire dragon swept across the thousands of troops in the cave, roasting all the moths that jumped on it until they were burnt.

Xuan Min turned his head and glanced again, and saw that in just a short moment, the ground had already been covered with a thick layer of insect corpses. At first glance, it was disgusting, but if you took a closer look, you would find something strange in it.

"Hiss—these bastards actually bite people." Xue Xian slapped the back of his hand angrily. If he hadn't been fond of water and hated fire, he would have burned the entire cave.He stretched out the back of his hand to Xuan Min for a look, and even he himself didn't realize that this move was a little suicidal.

With the light of the fire dragon, Xuan Min glanced at the two extra blood spots on the back of his hand, pointed to the ground of insect corpses behind him and said, "Some of these moths are unusually large."

If such a rare thing as the same lifespan spider can be raised, then this hundred wormhole will not be simple, maybe it is a natural Gu weapon.This moth has stayed in it for a long time, living generation after generation, and some mutations can be expected.

It's just that this mutation is really not very pleasant - not to mention the change from small to big, and it's actually starting to focus on flesh and blood.

"Let's go! Take another look and I'll spit you out." Xue Xian walked deeper without looking back with a dark face.

The further they went, the higher the stone path became, and the two of them no longer had to bow their heads in aggrieved manner. Even the fire dragon was attracted by Xuan Min, whizzed past the two of them, and led the way directly in front of them. .

At this time, even Xue Xian, who is not heat-resistant, began to look at the fire dragon pleasing to the eye.

The two blood spots made by the moths on the back of Xue Xian's hands were scorching hot for a moment, but they dissipated quickly.He reckoned that the moths should be poisonous. If ordinary people were here, they would either be disgusted by those moths, or be kissed all over their bodies by poisonous moths and die in the hole. Good end.

Although the moths in the stone cave just now were almost burned, there are also some moths crouching in the stone path.Just as Xuan Min said, these moths in the stone path are much bigger than ordinary moths, the biggest is even bigger than a palm, I don't know what they usually feed on, their belly is big and round, it looks heavy .

Most of them followed their instincts and headed straight for the fire dragon, while some were attracted by Xue Xian and Xuan Min.

"The further you go in, the weirder these moths grow." Xue Xian's face was gloomy, and he swept his sleeves annoyed.With sharp blades, the gust of wind whittled the things that flew up to the ground, and slammed them hard on the stone wall, shaking the entire cave, and the finely broken stones rustled down from the top. Come on, blow off the smoke.

Xue Xian: "..."

So sometimes it is not a good thing to be too strong. In this kind of place that is about to collapse if you are not careful, you can't use your strength at all. Xuan Min, who can release and receive, followed.

When they reached the depths of the stone path, the moths they encountered no longer rushed towards the fire dragon foolishly, but seemed to become spirits, avoiding them, and flew deeper with flapping their wings as if fleeing from the wilderness.

I don't know if it was Xue Xian's illusion, but he actually tasted something else from the moth's actions.It's like... rushing to the depths to report the news.

As he was thinking about it, he felt a sudden itch in the little finger of his left hand, as if something thin and lonely was crawling on his finger.

Xue Xian frowned and raised his hand to take a look.

"Ants," he said.

He saw an ant stretching its head and tail lying on his little finger, but this ant was two times bigger than usual, and under the light of the fire, its body was still a little red.This thing is not afraid of death, it bared its mouth under Xue Xian's nose, biting a bit of flesh and blood from his little finger.

Xue Xian snorted, "Another greedy bastard who eats meat and drinks blood."

As he spoke, he flicked the man-eating ant away impatiently.

The strength of Xue Xian's finger was naturally extraordinary, the ant hit the stone wall heavily, and immediately flattened into a puddle, the juice overflowing from its body melted on the stone wall, exuding a faint stench.

From this smell alone, one can tell that this ant probably eats dead bodies on weekdays.As for whether the dead body was a stray beast or a human... that's hard to say.

Before Xue Xian recovered from the disgusting smell, he felt his side and back being slapped twice.

He turned his head to look, just in time to see Xuan Min retracting his hand.And at his feet, there were some corpses of ants with slender legs upturned... and several groups of ants crawling from the front, along the uneven ground, or along the sharp stone walls.

The queue was astonishingly long, stretching from the foot to the end of the firelight.

This thing is more annoying than a moth, because it climbs up the body along the legs and feet.

Xue Xian turned his head and took a look. As expected, Xuan Min's face was so cold that it was about to drop icicles. With his fastidious temperament, he probably couldn't bear the gnats crawling in his clothes at all.

Xue Xian glanced at the shadow at the end of the fire with his extraordinary eyesight, and his expression changed immediately.Right now, it's just ants lined up, and if you go any further, the ants will almost cover the ground.

Those ants were so fast, it only took two of them to stop, and they came towards this place like a tide, looking at everything, and they were about to come to their feet in a blink of an eye, as if they got the news suddenly.

Xue Xian couldn't help but think of the moths from before, and felt that all the things in the wormhole were not far from being fine.

The ground cannot be stepped on, the stone walls cannot be touched, and even the top of the head is covered by those ants.

He didn't say a word, immediately picked up a gust of wind from the bottom of his feet, regardless of whether it would collapse the cave, he dragged Xuan Min straight forward.There was a strong wind sweeping the bottom, neither of them had their feet touching the ground, they almost stepped on the wind and bypassed the tide-like colony of man-eating ants.

The whistling wind was so powerful that it made the whole cave tremble, broken stones fell from the top of the head, and there was a constant crackling sound under the feet. was torn apart.

However, the howling fire dragon still continued, scorching the top of the stone path until it was scorched black everywhere, leaving no survivors.

Xue Xian finally understood what the old man Zhai meant by "Hai Chong Cave just listened to it and half died". It is flesh and blood that come in, and bones that go out alone.

The stone cave was deep and long, and it didn't know when it would end. Xue Xian and Xuan Min ran in it for about a stick of incense, and there were already mountains of corpses under their feet...

"Moths, man-eating ants, gnats, centipedes, scorpions..." Xue Xian counted the poisonous insects that died in his hands, then glanced at the ground, and sneered.

These troublesome things are more poisonous and bigger, and the closer they get to the depths, the more difficult they are to deal with. Some even have to be burned for a long time before slowly curling up.

But no matter how troublesome it is, to Xue Xian and Xuan Min, they are just some bugs. At worst, their feet don't touch the ground.So this was not the reason for Xue Xian's sneer.

The reason why he showed a sneer was because the deeper he went, the piles on the ground were not just the insect corpses exterminated by him and Xuan Min, but among the mountain of insect corpses, there were more and more human bones.

Those exposed bones are yellow and white in color, and the flesh has been gnawed clean, and at first glance it seems that they have been buried here for many years.But if you take a closer look, you can find that the blood on the bone is sticky and wet, and there is a familiar smell left.

"It's the people from the corpse shop." Xue Xian covered his mouth and nose, and finally landed at the end of the corpse.

Xuan Min frowned and glanced back, then withdrew his gaze and landed on his feet.

The place they were standing at this time was the end of the stone path, straight ahead was a sealed stone wall, and there was a spiral upward stone ladder in front of their feet, which was left by some dynasty or generation, not to mention narrow and crooked, and it was white. The vast spider web.

It's just that the cobwebs that were originally one on top of the other, layer upon layer, were swept away and hung lightly on both sides of the stone ladder.

Seeing the spider web, Xue Xian naturally thought of "Same Life Spider". Naturally, the name was not just a coincidence, presumably the top of the stone steps was the place they were looking for in the end.

"Someone got there first." Xue Xian glanced at the spider web, "It seems that those in the corpse shop were recruited as human iron shields."

Xuan Min pondered: "But the bones in the stone path are limited, there should be some remaining."

"Maybe it's up there." Xue Xian pointed to the stone steps.

The two looked at each other, and naturally there was no further delay, and they immediately lifted their feet and walked up the stone steps.

The stone ladder was also stained with some sticky blood, and mixed with other pickled filth, so that the two of them didn't touch the ground the whole time, and happened to avoid stepping on those things to make a sound.

This stone ladder is extremely high, with layers of winding, almost a hundred knots, but it only took a moment for the two of them to stand on top of it silently.

A flat stone room about the size of two rooms fell into their eyes, but there was a deep black pool embedded in the stone room, and a bronze mirror was placed beside the pool, and beside the bronze mirror was a large mess of blood, spreading from the wall. On the rocks at the edge of the pool.

And on one of the white stones, there were five bloody fingerprints imprinted on it, as if someone had scratched it out while struggling.
