This year's monsters are super fierce [75]

Zhan Zhao touched his face, and it seemed that he could still feel the remaining softness.It's a pity that it's instant, and I didn't experience it in detail.He laughed belatedly, and was about to stop Yan Buzhou, there must be a discussion about who should take the initiative, but he realized in time that the time and place are not suitable.

"Zhou Zhou, when we leave Wuling Mountain..." Zhan Zhao didn't finish speaking, and opened the stone door first, and there was indeed a corridor outside.

Unexpectedly, the corridor is not high, and a person standing upright is only one finger away from bumping his head.

And the passage is not completely dark and dark, just as Yan Buzhou said that there is no fire here, so there can be no permanent lights, but there are weak blue lights on the wall every few feet.

At first glance, the wall looks like it is inlaid with glowing stones the size of a fist. They are enclosed in glass balls, but for some reason the light source flickers.

After walking in and taking a look, there is no stone shining, it is clearly a group of light insects twisting their bodies in the glass ball.

The two looked at each other, and neither of them saw this kind of bug.Across a layer of glass cover, only the fireflies that are absolutely uncommon can be judged, which seem to be earthworms and worms.

Yan Buzhou shook his head to indicate that these insects had not exuded evil spirit.Twenty or thirty feet below the ground, there are self-luminous insects living in places where there is no sunlight, which is also in line with natural logic.

However, the two of them didn't touch the glazed ball cover, and no one could say whether it was weird or not.

In the quiet corridor, it is not easy to choose left or right.Even if you want to follow the compass and approach the direction of the long hair, no one can tell if you will choose a train of thought.

At the moment of desperation, we can only guess blindly.

Zhan Zhao took out a copper coin, and the coin rose and fell, with characters going to the left and patterns going to the right.

As a result, the two walked to the left.It was quiet all the time in the corridor, and no one was seen.

After walking for about three quarters of an hour, there were many forks on the road.What is certain is that the two did not go around in circles, because the height of the corridor is getting lower and lower, and if it is lower, it will be necessary to bend forward.

"Something is wrong." Zhan Zhao wrote in the pamphlet, "Look at this picture, it may not be drawn accurately, but what do you think it looks like?"

The two tried their best not to speak after entering the tunnel, and recorded the route they traveled with pen and paper.

Even if their sense of direction judgment is not bad, they are still detoured by fork roads. There are a few differences in the records, but the basic graphics are still similar.

"It's like a beehive." Yan Buzhou looked up at the height of the underground palace. "It's high enough for crawling insects. But it's not good for people to pass through."

There are no traces of footsteps left on the ground, and it may be necessary to look further inward to find valuable clues.

Do you want to go in the opposite direction?

Neither of them looked back, because the breath of long hair was in front of them.Now that we're here, let's investigate this weird underground palace, maybe we can give the Remnant Snake Demon a blow in the back.

Speeding up a little bit, after walking inward for a quarter of an hour, I had to bend my waist slightly to walk.

When he was about to approach the next fork in the road, he finally heard the rustling sound coming from the front.It sounded like the footsteps of three or five people, but something was wrong.

Yan Buzhou pinched Zhan Zhao's hand, indicating that there was Yin Qi ahead of him, and the source of those footsteps might not be living people.They didn't go forward immediately, the two waited until the sound of footsteps faded away, and then they came to the fork in the road and carefully leaned over to have a look.

A shocking scene appeared.

In the faint blue and dimly lit corridor, four people lined up in a row with their bodies arched, walking forward quickly with small steps on their feet.

This may sound like nothing unusual, but when viewed from behind, those people's two-footed walk was unusually distorted.For a while, the toes of both feet are facing inward, and for a while, the left and right toes are on the same side, as if their ankle joints can turn a full circle without breaking a bone.

The toes of those people were all in the same direction, and their heights were different, but their bows were exactly the same after bending over.

"It's like bee colonies or ant colonies traveling." Zhan Zhao thought that he couldn't see the front faces of those people, and didn't know what their front faces looked like. Is it still a human face?

In the next moment, he quickly pulled Yan Buzhou back to the original road.Only because there were strange footsteps on the other side of the Sanchakou again, this time they came hurriedly and quickly, as if they were chasing someone again.

Could it be that their traces were exposed?

Yan Buzhou stepped back, but heard a series of footsteps behind him.

Although I don't know what happened, but there are weird people on the four roads, I am afraid that an encounter is inevitable.

Unexpectedly, when they meet face to face, those strange people seem to be blind.Unexpectedly, they didn't see Yan Buzhou and Zhan Zhao who were meeting face to face at all, they all ran towards the same direction.

This is really unexpected, but it makes sense after thinking about it.

Yan Buzhou took out the kangmu anti-gu talisman around his neck. It is said that the general principle is to prevent the gu insects from finding the person to harm, and will unconsciously leave in a daze.

In other words, only Gu worms can't see the person wearing the wood, so can those in the underground palace be considered human?

"I caught a glimpse of one of them who might have a problem with his eye."

Zhan Zhao couldn't be sure either, the corridor was dimly lit, and with just a quick glance, the faces of most weirdos were no different from ordinary people. "It's like double pupils, but there are more of them. Like flies, there are many small dots in the eyes."

Yan Buzhou didn't see that person, but hearing the possibility of someone with insect compound eyes, she couldn't help but get goosebumps.

What kind of creatures live in the underground palace?Is it a human, a worm, or a worm?No, yin qi oozes from them, can these still be called living things?

"Let's follow up to see, the long hair is also in that direction."

Yan Buzhou wrote that since the weirdo ignored the existence of the two, as long as the other three people and one monster wore the wooden talisman, they would not be easily discovered.Now that the monsters are gathering rapidly, it is very likely that something big has happened.

The strange people walked fast, and the wave that passed by the two of them had disappeared.

However, Yan Buzhou and Zhan Zhao followed the direction in which the strange man left, and soon heard more and more footsteps.

After encountering two or three groups of strange people, those people still didn't realize that there was an uninvited guest around them, and continued to walk quickly towards the center of the underground palace.

After a long detour, the height of the corridor is only half a foot high.

Normal people have to work hard to maintain a bent posture when walking here, but the weird people seem to show the characteristics of having no spine.

I saw that they could bend their backs at will, and several teams of strange people met at the fork and did not speak, but uttered squeaks to exchange information.

The two found that strange people gathered here, and all the strange people they saw seemed to be men.They no longer go in a certain direction.In the chattering and whispering, it seems that some important news has been confirmed, and they go their own way again.

Zhan Zhao watched the situation become more and more weird, and thought for a while to keep up with the weird man holding the wooden box in his hand.

This time, he finally came to a ring-shaped hall, but it was connected with ten different fork roads, and an even more bizarre scene was staged.

From the fork on the far left, a young woman with a round belly twisted her body out.After receiving the wooden box and opening it, he immediately grabbed a lump of it with his hands and put it in his mouth.

Looking from a distance, the woman is eating a lump of black soil, and there is a faint smell of decay in the air.

Do the people here eat soil, or do they eat rot?That's more like a bug's habit.

Yan Buzhou's eyes fell on the woman's big belly. Is it pregnant or fat?An ominous correct answer faintly popped up in my heart.

It's just that the woman didn't notice the outsider at all, she turned and left with the wooden box while eating the dirt.

Not waiting to keep up with the pregnant woman, Zhan Zhao heard a faint voice coming from another fork in the road, which turned out to be Ge Ma's exclamation.

The two hurriedly rushed into the path in the middle, half squatting and half running towards Ge Ma's place.

This is to find that there are many scattered arches on both sides of the passage. The stone gate is closed. I don’t know what is behind it. Are they all women with big bellies?If they were pregnant, were they carrying humans?

Soon, Ge Ma asked the same question.

Besides, Ge Ma and Changfa also fell into the underground palace, and they also chose to walk to the center of the underground palace, wanting to find out what was going on here.

The two were wondering that the weird people they met on the road couldn't see them, and they didn't even hear their words, but Ge Ma didn't expect to see a familiar figure.

"Dao Xiaoli!"

Ge Ma whispered in surprise, the person who came was one year older than him, and it was his former savior Dao Li.

More than a year ago, Ge Ma curiously entered the depths of the Wuling Mountains, and he would know that Guixiaogou was almost planted there.Fortunately, he met Dao Li who went out to collect medicine and rescued him from the brink of death.

Dao Li warned Ge Ma not to enter, and told some things about the Hundred Ghosts Mountains, where she was living in a certain Gu-release tribe.

Unlike most people who hide in the mountains of ghosts, 11-year-old Dao Li does not hate the outside world.She chatted with Ge Ma a lot, and even agreed to meet once every four months, and they met secretly outside Guixiaogou.

For the first two appointments, both of them arrived on time, but Dao Li did not show up at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month.

Ge Ma waited for more than ten days and didn't see anyone, so she could only guess whether it was because the new year was approaching and it was inconvenient for her to come out.

Later, Ge Ma went to the agreed place many times to check whether there were any letters with a few words, but Dao Li disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea.

This time, Ge Ma agreed to go deep into the Wulin Mountains to lead the way, and also thought that maybe he would meet Dao Li by luck, but he never thought that he would meet in the underground palace.Could it be that Dao Li has also become a weirdo?

Dao Li was different from those strange people, she turned around when she heard Ge Ma's voice, and subconsciously stretched out her hands like a blind person exploring the way. "Gege, is that you? Isn't it my illusion?"

Of course not an illusion.

The long hair was carried by Ge Ma and ran forward. Don't look at it has only one eye, but its eyesight is hundreds of times better than that of humans, and it can see the breath invisible to human eyes.

This Dao Li is different from other strange people, she still has a little vitality left in her body.

When Dao Li waited for Ge Ma to stand in front of her, she already burst into tears silently, she wanted to hug Ge Ma but abruptly stopped and took half a step back. "I said I must not pass the Ghost Smile Ditch, why did you come to the underground palace?"

"I'm the one asking, right? See you in the twelfth lunar month, why haven't you shown up?"

Ge Ma looked Dao Li up and down, and felt that she had changed a lot after not seeing her for more than five months.Inadvertently glanced into the stone gate, and saw a half-human, half-worm baby lying on the stone bed. "What the hell is this place? Dao Xiaoli, what's that inside?"

At this time, Yan Buzhou and Zhan Zhao had already found Ge Ma's voice.

Dao Li saw two more living people coming, obviously Ge Ma's companions.Thinking of the word companion, she rubbed her abdomen and smiled miserably, but her fighting spirit was instantly ignited.

"That's a baby. In this underground palace, you are the first living people I met, and everyone else is a scorpion. Gu things happen, and scorpions die. Those controlled by scorpions are all dead. My Time is running out, and I have a glimmer of hope for revenge when I meet you, so come in and talk."

The stone house is not big, there is only a stone bed and a wooden barrel.

Compared with the simple furnishings, there is a delicate circular stone relief on the ground, the diameter is about the length of an adult's arm.

On the upper semicircle of the relief, the left side is engraved with a water-like pattern, and the right side is engraved with two hands holding a similar 'mouth'-shaped object.

Yan Buzhou and Zhan Zhao recognized at a glance that this is the Shaman script of the word "Shui Gong", or it can also be regarded as a "Hong" character.

After hearing Hong Tian's word before, Wu Yan wrote down the relevant shamanic characters, maybe they will encounter similar totem signs in the deep mountains.

Besides, the lower semicircle of the relief is no longer a character, and it is clearly recognizable that it is a monster with a snake body and nine heads.

Hong, Gong, Shui, plus a Hydra.The real body of the Remnant Snake Demon is almost ready to be revealed.

In the first month of last year, Zhan Zhao didn't know the true meaning of the name when he didn't listen well.

After hearing some words once, he took them to heart, and after hearing the word Buzhoushan, he looked up the legends related to it.

Under Gonggong, the water god, there is a minister named Xiang Liu, who has the body of a hydra.The fierce god Xiangliu cannibalized countless people, causing floods wherever he went, and floating corpses everywhere.

Dayu killed Xiangliu angrily. The snake's blood was extremely poisonous, and once the land was stained, no crops could grow again.The rotten and poisonous soil had to be dug out and piled up into an earthen platform, and several emperors continued to offer sacrifices to reduce its toxicity. Later, that place was called Wuditai.

Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao held her hand tightly before he could speak.

It is said that Gonggong ran into Buzhou Mountain angrily. This weird underground palace and Hongtian organization must have some grudges with Yan Buzhou, right?
