Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 506 Black Dansha

The light came on a bit suddenly, I was startled at first, and then I realized that, besides Zhuan Rui, who can hold the lamp in this underground?Sure enough, I saw two figures creeping up from a distance, also topless, making a sound of bug shit, who else could it be if it wasn't Zhuanrui and Harichagai?
Don't mention how excited Tofu was, he immediately went up to him, just like a pug, almost wagging his tail, and said, "Old Chen guessed right, you two really didn't die so easily, that's great."

Zhuanrui and Harichagai stopped and sat down on the spot, a little out of breath.Zhuanrui said: "You two have also been recruited?" I shook my head and told Zhuanrui what happened next, and then I heard Harichagai say: "We are similar, we were kicked as soon as we found the entrance. Go down, but we are more unlucky, the one who hit the ground first, didn’t climb out, grandma, I’m exhausted.” As he spoke, he leaned against the wall to breathe while wiping his sweat.

They came from the right, and they seemed to be the same as us. They couldn't find the direction, so they followed the rules of the inverted fight and walked left instead of right, so they ran into us.If the two groups of us choose different directions, we don’t know how long we will have to wander around before we can meet.

Zhuanrui listened to me, thoughtfully, stretched out his hand and suddenly picked up a handful of insect excrement, playing with it like sand, and asked after a while, "Is that insect red-headed and sixteen-legged?"

I recalled it and said, "It's a red head, but I don't know how many heads there are. What? Do you know what it is?"

Zhuan Rui nodded, and told us about the origin of the bug.It turns out that this kind of insect was called "sixteen-legged earth digger" in ancient times. This insect lives by eating poisonous spiders and scorpions, but it is not poisonous itself. The effect of detoxification is often used by people who practice Taoism to make alchemy.It's just that these sixteen-legged burrowers usually live deep in the burrow, and it is very difficult to find them, so it is very difficult to find their feces.

This kind of black sandy feces is known as "black cinnabar", which is juxtaposed with cinnabar, but cinnabar is easy to get, but black cinnabar is hard to find.

It seems that after the ghost monsters perished, these tunnels were gradually occupied by the 'sixteen-legged burrowers', and they multiplied here for generations. It took an unknown number of years to form the current scale.After hearing this, Tofu looked around and said, "According to this, there must be a lot of 'sixteen-legged burrowers' in this place. Could it be that they are afraid of people and hide when they see us?"

Zhuan Rui said: "This kind of bug likes the dark, not the light. I guess we brought a light source, so they didn't appear. Anyway, these are good things, don't think they are dirty." Harichagai winked at the tofu, Evil smile said: "The ancients also used whale feces as spices, what is it called... Ambergris?"

Tofu curled his lips, ignored Harichagai, and then hissed suddenly, as if thinking of something, showing a look of enlightenment, and said: "You said, the goblin who plotted against us before has disappeared without a trace, without a trace. Is it because there is black cinnabar in this place, so it dare not come in?"

Zhuan Rui nodded slightly to express his agreement, and said: "It must still be guarding outside, so when we leave, we can take some black cinnabar with us to deal with it." After discussing with the four, they chose left or right according to the original plan Continue to climb forward.I held the smoking stove in my hand and climbed to the front with the light on. Not long after, Tofu pulled my trouser leg and said, "Old Chen, I want to take a shit."

I said: "Lazy people have a lot of shit and pee, hold it in." Tofu didn't say a word, and crawled forward with us for a while, and finally said aggrievedly: "I can't hold it anymore, can I stop first?"

Harichagai laughed out loud and made fun of the tofu.But people have three urgencies, and we can't hold back, so we can only wait for Tofu first, crawl forward for a certain distance, and leave him behind to solve the problem.From our point of view, Tofu has dug a hole in the ground, squatting on the spot and humming twice from time to time. Fortunately, we are wearing gas masks, and we can’t smell anything from a distance. After a while, it’s over, he has hands He pulled the black cinnabar twice, buried the stool, and gestured to us for OK.

Everyone continued to crawl forward, but this time, not long after, I suddenly heard a strange sound in my ears, and I couldn't help but stop.

The sound was so small, it seemed to be a grinding sound, and I almost thought it was made by ourselves when we were crawling.But soon, the voice became louder. At this moment, Tofu, who was crawling on the last one, suddenly exclaimed: "Look, these shits are moving."

I looked down and found nothing unusual, but Harichagai, who was crawling in the third place, said: "There seems to be something behind." He turned the flashlight back suddenly, and saw the ground where he could see, black cinnabar sand Protrusions suddenly bulged up one by one, as if something was about to get out of it.

I immediately realized that it was the sixteen-legged burrowers that had come out.

Strange, didn't Zhuan Rui say that they are afraid of light?
Zhuan Rui behind me and I looked at each other, he frowned and shook his head slightly, apparently also puzzled.

At this moment, those sixteen-legged diggers had already crawled out. As soon as they emerged, they seemed to be afraid of our lights. As soon as they emerged, they all retreated into the darkness where the lights could not reach.

Harichagai was surprised: "Why did they all come out? I said, this thing doesn't bite, does it?"

Zhuan Rui said nonchalantly: "Maybe, let's go quickly."

Harichagai said: "I see, this kid must have buried the excrement in it just now, and these insects were so smoked that they couldn't stand it, so they crawled out." Tofu protested angrily while crawling, saying: "Fuck you!" Damn, don't rely on me for everything, I'll take a shit and you'll be framed, and you never shit and pee."

Harichagai clicked his tongue and said: "You are full of foul language, what kind of shit and pee, that's all you have in your head."

Zhuan Rui said in a low voice: "Don't make noise," because his words are more powerful. Tofu is not afraid of me at all. He is used to being yelled at by me on weekdays, and now he ignores how he yells.The word Zhuanrui convinced the two of them. We turned our heads and were about to continue climbing. Suddenly, I found that the black cinnabar in front of us slowly bulged into a bag the size of a basketball.

I couldn't help but gasped, and said to myself: Is there a big guy coming out?Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped moving, and then took out the gun.

The second after I took out the gun, the contents of the black cinnabar rushed out, causing the black sand to splash, but a red-headed digger as thick as a human leg jumped out.

Harichagai said: "Damn it, how can this bug grow so big?"

As soon as it sprang out, it rushed towards me. I thought it was going to attack me, and fired a shot immediately, but the sight was dim, and the target of the thing was not big, so the shot missed.Only then did I realize that it didn't pounce like me, but jumped up and climbed onto the wall on one side and swam back.

It was extremely fast, and after the shot was fired, I could only see a black shadow rushing by from the corner of my eye, but I couldn't see anything clearly.When I turned around abruptly, I realized that this thing ignored Zhuanrui and Harichagai, and rushed towards the tofu.

My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help shouting: "Be careful!" The voice echoed in the crypt, but it couldn't stop the thing from moving fast. Tofu's skill was like playing house in a kindergarten. With such a pounce, the head digger immediately pushed him to the ground.

Due to the limited space in this tunnel, we lined up in a column, and I was at the head and Tofu was at the end. I couldn't go there immediately to save people.When it was Harichagai, the moment Tofu was thrown down, he suddenly pulled out something from the back of his waist and stabbed it out.

I didn't see what that thing was, but this time, he violently picked the red-headed ground digger away from the tofu, and the bug was picked up and thrown several meters away.At this time, I discovered that what Harichagai pulled out from the back of his waist was a pure black wooden stick, about half a meter long, with unevenness on it, and it seemed that there was something carved on it. Where is it hidden.

The next second after the bug was picked up, Harichagai reached out and lifted the tofu that had fallen on the ground, dragged it behind him, and said to Zhuan Rui, "Go on." He threw the tofu to Zhuan Rui as if it were equipment .

I hurried to see the condition of Tofu, and couldn't help saying: "It's broken, it's disfigured." I saw that the gas mask on Tofu's face must have been knocked off by that pounce, and his face was bitten.That red-headed digger has a pair of big claws, which look like a knife when closed in the middle.At this moment, there is a straight blood mark in the center of Tofu's face. Although he has been injured on his face before, they are all small scratches. Now, based on experience, I know that there will be some wounds. scar.

As soon as Tofu touched his face, tears came into his eyes, and he said, "I have no money, no rights, no car and no house. The only advantage is that I have a good face, so I count on this face to marry a wife. What can I do in the future!"

On the contrary, Zhuan Rui suddenly smiled and said, "That's pretty good." Tofu said, "What a fart, you want to say that finally someone is as ugly as you!" Zhuan Rui shrugged, noncommittal.I looked forward, but I saw a strange smile on the corner of Harichagai's mouth, and he made a hey sound in his mouth, and he rushed forward, waving the black wooden stick in his hand and digging at the huge red head. The insects smashed away.Unexpectedly, at this moment, that thing suddenly penetrated into the black cinnabar, and disappeared without a trace.

For a while, the surroundings returned to silence.
