Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 239 Wangmei Quenches Thirst (4000)

"Yes! How is that brother?"

Cao Ang came to help the guard, and asked quickly.

"He should...be dead."

At this moment, the guard still looked shocked, and replied with trembling lips.

"should?"

Wu Liang's words to this personal guard were very strange.

"Eldest son, Captain Wu, you don't know something..."

The guard knew that he couldn't say a word or two about this matter, so he paused for a while to organize his language as much as possible, and truthfully reported what they experienced after they left.

It turned out that after the two of them were ordered to go out to search for salt, they quickly ran to the outside of the tomb along the way they came.

Soon they came to the previous tomb room where the puppets and tombstones were stored. What people didn't expect was that the remaining [-] puppets in that tomb room had also broken into pieces of wood all over the floor at some point.

Although the two felt strange, they did not dare to waste time.

Therefore, after checking briefly and confirming that there was no threat in the tomb, they continued to search for salt.

As a result, when anyone wanted to run to a corner, he suddenly ran into that evil thing made up of countless gnats just now.

Another personal guard ran ahead, caught off guard for a while, and bumped headfirst into the arms of the evil thing.

The evil thing took advantage of the situation and opened his arms, hugging him.

Those gnats immediately covered the whole body of the bodyguard, many worms crazily crawled into his body along his seven orifices, and more gnats crazily devoured him.

The guard who escaped had never seen such a scene before.

At that time, he was terrified, but seeing his companion struggling and howling in pain, he suppressed the fear in his heart and rushed forward, slashing at the two arms of the evil thing that were hugging his companion.

Those two arms were not as strong as imagined, and one arm was cut off with just one stab.

The broken arm fell to the ground, but it immediately turned into many gnats like a plate of loose sand.

These worms writhed and crawled back to the evil thing's feet again, leaving only dozens of worm corpses on the ground that were cut off by his knife.

And at the same time.

The broken arm of the evil thing grew back at a speed visible to the naked eye, and quickly returned to its original shape.

Such a terrifying scene once again frightened the guard.

He finally realized that it is impossible to kill this evil thing with this conventional method. The effect of this knife alone is that the evil thing stands there motionless and let him chop it. In the end, there is only one result, That is to exhaust him to death.

next moment.

The evil thing suddenly opened his arms and let his companion go.

At this time, that companion had turned into a "chrysalis" wrapped in countless gnats. Those worms were wriggling on his constantly shaking body, and blood flowed out from under him.

He even saw that there were only two black blood holes left in that companion's eyes.

Many gnats that have been dyed red are coming in and out along the two blood holes and his mouth and nose, as if they have eaten his body into an empty shell.

This personal guard had fought many tough battles before, but he had never seen such a horrifying scene, and his calf had already started to cramp and tremble.

But that evil creature didn't intend to let him go, and opened his arms to let him walk.

He didn't dare to stay for a long time, but his legs were no longer in control.

Fortunately, just when the evil thing was about to approach him, he gritted his teeth and cut the palm of his hand with a knife. Only then did he use his sense of pain to forcibly suppress the uncontrollable fear, and he tried his best to escape.

Then it didn't take long.

Then they ran into Wu Liang and the others who were about to withdraw from the tomb...

"This……"

After listening to the personal guard's narration, Cao Ang's face became even uglier.

What Wu Liang said before was indeed correct, this evil thing is harmless at all, and the idea of ​​fighting it to the death is simply unrealistic, it is tantamount to flying moths to the flame.

"From this point of view, that brother must...doomed."

Wu Liang sighed helplessly.

In this way, it was impossible to expect someone to go out and inform, bringing other reinforcements and salt that he speculated might have a fatal effect on these gnats.

As for using Bai Jingjing's ventriloquist to ask for help from outsiders...

There is no need to try this method, the voice of the bodyguard calling for help just now is loud enough, and Bai Jingjing's ventriloquism mainly lies in skill and changeability, it will not be more penetrating than this voice.

If people outside heard the call for help, they would rush in to rescue them.

If she couldn't hear it, then Bai Jingjing's ventriloquist wouldn't be of much use.

At this moment, the most important thing is how to get rid of this evil thing. If they can lead it out of this tomb passage first, and then they enter the tomb passage first, maybe there will be nothing blocking their retreat.

As for where this evil thing came from.

Wu Liang felt that it might have something to do with the sixteen puppets that were destroyed again. There must have been a large number of beetle eggs hidden there before, and they had already hatched when they passed by for the second time. Blocked by thick layers of wood, Bai Jingjing didn't hear the movement inside.

"Brother talented and virtuous, are you all encountering such things in tomb robbery before?"

While being horrified in his heart, Cao Ang looked at Wu Liang with sympathy. Now he finally deeply understood the nature of the work of the Huanren Army, and finally understood the reason why Cao Ting couldn't wait to leave the Huanren Army and refused to enter the mausoleum no matter what. .

Compared with facing such an evil thing, it is not too easy to kill the enemy...

"It's not all..."

Wu Liang shook his head, but he was still thinking hard about how to escape.

Speaking of which, he was also very speechless.

According to the records in "History of Qi", Duke Ai of Qi was boiled and killed because of the exposure of the "art of disgusting charms".

Therefore, before that, he had been more worried about the "Spell of Disgusting Enchantments", and when he entered for the first time, the existence of those puppets also made him more sure that this tomb should be related to the "Skill of Disgusting Enchantments". I didn't think about other aspects.

Who would have thought of the result.

In this tomb, there is actually a "throwing technique", and it is such a terrible killing technique.

Now even if Wu Liang doesn't want to admit it, he has to admit that these gnats have human "resentment" in them. Otherwise, why do they insist on gathering the outlines of human beings, and even some behaviors have many similarities with human beings? Even has a certain IQ.

This is the scariest place...

"Well, if I'm lucky enough to get out alive this time, I will personally ask for credit for my virtuous brother and the Huan army in front of my father. Take the lead!"

The phrase "Not all of them", to Cao Ang's ears, was just Wu Liang's modest words, and such a person who is so proud of his credit is also the type of person he admires the most.

He secretly swore in his heart that he would never let Wu Liang and Huan Renjun, a group of heroes walking silently in purgatory, bleed and shed tears!
If you make them feel cold, you will shake the foundation of Cao Jun!
"Brother Zixiu is absurd."

Wu Liang is not in the mood to care about these interests at the moment, and he only has one thought, and that is... to live!

……

Soon after.

Everyone has already returned to the tomb full of the tombs.

The stench in the air became even more intense. Although the tombs here hadn't collapsed, many gnats had forced their way out from the cracks between the bricks and were wriggling on the ground of the tomb.

But these gnats are not aimless.

The directions of their wriggling are all in the center of the tomb... And in the center of the tomb, there is an adult-sized figure standing!

Those gnats were constantly gathering at the feet of this figure, and then quickly merged with it.

With the continuous addition of worms, this figure gradually became taller, stronger, and more frightening...

"Maybe what we saw before is this thing, but every time a new worm joins, this thing will grow a little bit."

Wu Liang sighed and said helplessly.

There may be dozens of graves here, that is, dozens of petri dishes.

In addition, there are still many corpses of pregnant women that have been dumped in the tomb passage over there. If the gnats in there come out again...

Wu Liang didn't dare to think about it any longer. There was no doubt that there would be a giant worm taller and stronger than the "Hulk", and their situation would become even more dangerous.

"There is an evil thing in the front, and an evil thing in the back, what should we do now?"

Cao Ang glanced at the figure, and hurriedly asked Wu Liang for his opinion.

Even though he has experienced hundreds of battles before, he has never had similar experience, so he doesn't know what to do at this moment.

Wu Liang glanced back at the giant gnat who was about to follow behind him, frowned and said, "Let that evil thing out of the tomb passage first, and once it follows, we will find a gap and turn back immediately to enter the tomb passage that leaves the tomb first." , this may be our only hope."

"I'm afraid that's the only way to do it..."

Everyone immediately understood what Wu Liang meant and nodded their heads.

First move the evil thing away from the mountain, and then kill the carbine and flee quickly, so as to avoid direct contact with the evil thing.

But this is easy to say, but not so easy to do.

They had to enter this relatively spacious tomb first, and they had to find a way to deal with the evil thing that had just reached the size of an adult and the gnats all over the ground. At the same time, they had to find a way to lure the giant gnat behind out of the entrance of the tomb. This in itself is not a small difficulty.

The most important thing is that the gnat giant needs to cooperate enough, otherwise no matter how good the plan is, all previous efforts will be wasted.

But the matter has come to this point, and everyone can't think of a better way, so they can only take a risk.

Soon after.

Wu Liang and the others had already stepped into the tomb. They ignored the gnats and the "growing" evil thing in the center of the tomb, but walked along the edge of the tomb as much as possible, trying not to disturb it.

It's a pity that the moment Wu Liang and the others came in, the "grown up" monster had already noticed them.

It slowly raised its arm, and the gnat at the end of the arm quickly transformed into a hand, pointing an index finger at Wu Liang and the others.

then.

Wu Liang and the others clearly saw that there was a transparent gap in the middle of this evil thing's head.

The gap gradually grew longer and larger, and finally formed a curved crescent shape, which looked like a sneering mouth, even down to the fangs inside the mouth?

"scare--!"

An extremely strange voice came from that transparent mouth.

this moment.

All those gnats that were wriggling towards it suddenly stopped.

"This is?!"

Everyone and the others immediately stood in place, their hearts already in their throats.

They naturally knew that the evil thing had discovered them, but they didn't know what the strange behavior of the evil thing meant, let alone what would happen next.

However, this feeling is very bad, scalp tingling...

at the same time.

The gnats in the entire tomb suddenly changed direction, all facing Wu Liang and the others.

"scare!"

Another strange cry came.

Those bugs seemed to have received the order, and they immediately surrounded Wu Liang and the others.

Moreover, their moving speed at this moment is actually much faster than before. If their previous speed is compared to that of a tortoise, then this time it is at least the speed of ordinary people jogging.

Even in the process of these gnats surrounding them, they are still gathering together.

In the blink of an eye, countless "little snakes" one foot long formed, rushing toward Wu Liang and the others like a tide.

"It's too late to implement the previous plan, run with me!"

Wu Liang glanced back at the tomb passage when he came here. The giant worm hadn't come out of it yet. Under the circumstances, it was impossible to wait any longer, so he had to bite the bullet and lead everyone to the tomb passage that hadn't been explored yet. Run away.

This is his backup plan.

He didn't know what was waiting for them there, but at least he could delay the time so that he wouldn't be immediately besieged to death by these gnats.

"This evil thing that has suffered a thousand knives seems to be able to see through our intentions and make such a response. What is it?"

Cao Ang was shocked at this moment, and shouted angrily and desperately. Before this, he never thought that there were such shocking things in the world.

"I heard that there must be a solution near the evil thing. The solution may be in the tomb passage that we haven't explored yet. Go!"

Seeing this, Wu Liang had to push him.

Boss Cao must have never imagined that his method of "looking at the plum blossoms to quench thirst" would actually teach Wu Liang to use it in advance, and he would use it on his son.

"Sure?"

Cao Ang immediately raised his spirits.

"Brother Zixiu, can't you trust me?"

Wu Liang asked back.

"Believe it! Of course I believe it! Let's go!"

Naturally, Cao Ang's physical fitness was not bad, and he gained strength in an instant. He and Wu Liang supported the guard, and his walking speed increased a lot.

After such a few breaths, although everyone did not completely get rid of the gnats, they had already run into the unexplored tomb passage.

"Dianwei, Jingjing, Yu Ji, take out all the remaining realgar!"

Wu Liang stopped, grabbed the small cloth bag tied around his waist, and dumped the realgar inside at the entrance of the tomb.
