Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 201 The Floating Head
Where did this wind come from?

Xiao Ran hurriedly turned on the flashlight, traced the source of the wind, and found that the place where the wind came from was right next to him.

Two meters above the gentle slope of the right wall where he was standing, there was a large square bump protruding from the wall, which was made of bricks and stones.There is a masonry pipe running to the top of the room above the square bump against the wall.

It turns out that the ventilation that really leads to the outside world is this generous bump.

Excitedly, he jumped down the gentle slope, almost stepping on the two carts.With the hope of survival ahead, he didn't care too much, so he hurried to the square lump in two steps.

There was an opening in the front of the square lump, and Xiao Ran took a picture inside. The inside of the thing was full of bones and ashes, and there were some black greasy things scraped on the inner wall.

The breeze blows out of it, carrying the smell of loess and smoke, it feels a long-lost freshness.

Xiao Ran immediately understood that this was an incinerator.Maybe there are some broken limbs and internal organs that are really unusable, Tianling Sanren will directly burn them here.

Thinking of this, he gagged again. Just now, he actually felt that the air blowing from here smelled fresh, so he took a few more breaths on purpose.

Viewed from the inside of the incinerator, the cross-sectional size of the vent there is absolutely not large enough for an adult to pass through.Moreover, it is unknown how many meters from the ground. The inner wall of the chimney passage should be covered with putty. Even if you can get in and climb up with nausea, you can't prevent falling in the middle and making you half disabled.

The matter has come to this point, and the chance of escaping from this torture chamber is once again zero.

Seeing Liu Shengli and Xu Er poking their heads outside the door, Xiao Ran thought about letting them see the world, so he called them in.There are three gates guarding this torture room, so there must be no extra space for any other organs.Besides, even if you are trapped, you can escape from the passage of the abandoned corpse pit next to it, which is just disgusting.

Xu Er and Liu Shengli went down the stairs cautiously, shining torches on all parts of the execution room, and kept screaming.

Xiao Ran took the keys they handed over, and introduced each of his conjectures and discoveries to the two, which made them amazed.

"Xiao Gang, you are too good at this, why do you seem to have done these things yourself and know everything?"

Xu Er's praise made Xiao Ran dumbfounded, so he could only respond: "I was just thinking about it, thinking about it..."

Seeing that Xiao Ran had ruled out the danger, Liu Shengli got bolder, went around with a torch, and lit all the oil lamps that were still working, and after a while, every corner of the torture room was lit up.

"Hey! Manager! What is this over here?!"

Hearing Liu Shengli's shout, Xiao Ran couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and hurried to Liu Shengli's side.

Liu Shengli was squatting in a corner at this moment, and the ground in front of him was a mass of rags and bone dregs, mixed together by a gray-green paste. Although it had dried up and was dusty, it still exuded a foul smell. .

Xiao Ran pinched his nose and said, "Sure, Liu'er, now you are not afraid of seeing dead bones?"

Liu Shengli scratched his head, stared and said, "I didn't notice it unless you mentioned it, so why am I not afraid?"

"It's ok, I've made some progress. This thing looks like shit to me..."

Liu Shengli asked: "Shit? There are bones and clothes in it? Is it eaten by someone?"

Enduring his nausea, Xiao Ran fiddled with a broken stick, and said, "It doesn't seem like it was swallowed whole, it probably ate an arm wrapped in a sleeve. Look here, this is the knuckle of a finger..."

The two of them were still researching, and Xu Er, who was not far away, was standing in front of the incinerator, holding a torch and carefully looking at it, as if he had discovered something strange.

Leaving aside Liu Shengli who was still studying excrement, Xiao Ran walked up to Xu Er and asked, "What's the matter? You want to go in and play too?"

Xu Er said: "No, Xiao Gang, I think there seems to be..."

Xiao Ran shined a flashlight into the incinerator, and sure enough it was under the light...

Xiao Ran's scalp felt numb for a while, when he checked it himself just now, there was obviously nothing, why are there so many now?
Could there be some other beast lurking nearby besides the three of them?

He pushed Xu Er away, and took a flashlight to look around the door. Everything was calm there, and he couldn't see if anything had come in from there.

Then there was only one possibility, and he moved the torch back into the incinerator, trying to shine a light on the bottom of the chimney.If any beast could have thrown the entrails into the incinerator without their knowledge, it would have most likely been through the entrance above the chimney.

But as soon as Xiao Ran's flashlight moved back to the mouth of the incinerator, Xu Er yelled almost sadly: "Oh my god, there is a ghost!"

In front of Xiao Ran's flashlight, a pair of blood-red eyes were avoiding the direct light, staring at him firmly.A bright red long tongue is constantly expanding and contracting under the eyes.

The red-eyed and red-tongued head has no nose, just two protruding hollows.On the top of the head, the sparse hair stood up, like a ghost who had been grabbed by the hair and beheaded.

Xiao Ran's scalp seemed to explode, and he jumped back instinctively.

"Suo Suo Zi! There is a ghost, why didn't you remind me!" Xiao Ran shouted in his heart.

Locking Soul Ding Lingzhu said: "Bayan, what the hell is there...?"

Hearing Suo Hun Ding Lingzhu say this, Li Ran didn't feel relieved at all, because the red-eyed red-tongued head was floating out of the incinerator, and the string of viscera was shaking in front of Xiao Ran and Xu Er's eyes. Then slowly stacked on the ground, only the head is still suspended in the air.

Liu Shengli heard the movements of Xiao Ran and Xu Er, and ran over holding a torch.

He just ran not far from the head, and he also called out "Oh my god", then took out a shovel and slipped to Xiao Ran's side.

"Manager, what a big snake! That shit must have been pulled by it!" Liu Shengli shouted.

snake?Xiao Ran rubbed his eyes, and simply turned off the flashlight.Without the strong light of the wolf-eyed flashlight, the floating head and the viscera lying on the ground were instantly connected by a long translucent body.

It was only after the faint light of the torch that Xiao Ran saw clearly that it was a big snake with a strange shape, estimated to be more than ten meters long, and the thickest part of its body was like an ordinary person's thigh.It has red eyes and red tongue, a tuft of black hair on the top of its head, and when the skin is not illuminated, the scales can be vaguely seen as a light black gray.

The big snake just sat cross-legged in front of the three of them silently, spitting out red letters continuously, without any intention of attacking.Xiao Ran carefully raised the flashlight, turned it on, and illuminated the snake's body, the internal organs inside were clearly visible.But as soon as the flashlight was turned off, the snake skin returned to its normal state of impenetrability.

He kept turning the flashlight on and off like this, and the big snake on the opposite side looked at him steadily, as if looking at a mentally retarded low-level creature, with red eyes full of indifference.

"Manager, what kind of snake is this? How can it become transparent?" Liu Shengli asked.

Xiao Ran searched his memories hard, and suddenly remembered that he had seen this kind of creature when he read the encyclopedia when he was a child.He speculated and said to the two: "This thing, I'm afraid it's not a snake..."
