Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 206 Hunting
Xiao Ran rolled into the cage, got up and swung his legs to kick the door shut, picked up a dead bone from the ground as a bolt and plugged the door, and finally created a temporary safe space for himself.

Heads hung from the thicker vines of the man-eating rose, unable to enter the cell through the gaps in the iron bars, and stretched forward, those heads that were stuck on the iron bars twisted and screamed unnaturally, Hearing this, Xiao Ran got goosebumps.

The cannibal radish has grown into one body with these heads, and can clearly feel the pain of the head, so it has no choice but to retract the thick vines and stretch out a few thinner vines from between the iron bars.

Seeing the vines coming in, Xiao Ran swung his knife and chopped off several vines in one stroke like cutting leeks.A greenish translucent liquid flowed out from the vine cut, and it shivered back, but immediately several new vines came in to fill its place.

Xiao Ran kept chopping with his knife, and soon dozens of long and short vines fell on the ground.But going on like this is not an option after all, this man-eating plant is a plant, it seems that there is no upper limit of physical strength, and Xiao Ran is a person, he can't keep cutting down like a perpetual motion machine.

And after all, this is only a defensive stance that treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Xiao Ran kept mowing the grass in the cell, but he also watched the vines covering the walls and roofs outside become more and more dense, and more and more lantern-like heads dangled in front of his eyes, oh The weird yelling of woo ya ya rang incessantly, which made Xiao Ran feel more and more restless.

Suddenly there was a "click" sound from the wall next to it, Xiao Ran cut off a few vines and took a few steps back, turning his head to look at the place where the sound came from.Seeing this frightened him quite a bit. A few loose floor tiles on the left wall of the cell fell to the ground, and a big hole appeared in an instant, and a thick vine came out of the big hole along with several human heads. Come in.

Xiao Ran hastily raised his knife and chopped off the tip of the vine rushing in front, and even fell to the ground with two heads, one person and one bird.

He didn't dare to relax, turned around and cut off a few thin vines protruding from the iron gate of the cell door, and quickly took a picture with the flashlight.Now there is a broken wall with exposed holes on the left, behind is the partition wall between the execution room, which is several meters thick, and in front of you is the iron fence full of holes.

He carefully took a picture on the right wall, and found a hole the size of a dog hole near the corner of the back wall.The mice in this hall may have also eaten the messy pills, each of them is a circle bigger than a rabbit, and the hole is probably dug by those mice.

Xiao Ran kicked vigorously sideways, and kicked the two bricks above the hole apart a little more, then stretched his joints and made a creaking sound, exerting his bone shrinking skills to the maximum, and finally got through the hole into the cell next to him.

Almost as soon as he entered the cell on the right, he heard the sound of bricks falling to the ground behind him. At the same time, more thin vines also protruded from the iron bars into the cell, instantly occupying the entire cell just now.

Xiao Ran hurriedly took out the handkerchief, tied it on the flashlight, picked up a broken mat from the ground and rolled it up with the rags on it, and stuffed it into the dog hole in the corner.

In this way, part of the light can be temporarily blocked, so that it will not be exposed too quickly, so as to buy yourself more time to find a way out.The giant vine man-eating dill is originally a plant, which can lock the target by sensing temperature, humidity, vibration, etc., but with those large and small heads, the sensory ability of this plant can even far exceed that of a human with only one head.

He continued to search on the right wall of the new cell, although the further to the right, the deeper he would go into the prison, and there was a risk of pushing himself into a dead end.But now I can only live one more second, there is no other way.

The hole in the corner of this cell is even bigger, and there are several shallow pits on the wall that have not been successfully dug. It must be that the prisoners in this cell tried their best to escape, but they failed in the end.

Said man, he shone with a dim flashlight, the lock on the door of this cell was still there, but there was no body in the cell.Looking at the hole in the wall, unless he has bone shrinking skills like him, it is impossible to get out.

If it is said that a child was once imprisoned in this cell, that is unlikely. Where did the child have the strength to dig such a hole?

The only reasonable explanation is that the prisoner was halfway through digging the hole before being swallowed by the giant vine cannibal.

Xiao Ran didn't have time to think any further, so he could only use his hands and feet to dig a bigger hole so that he could pass through smoothly.Although the bone shrinking exercise is easy to use, the joints of the whole body are sore after just using it. It is best to pass it normally if there is enough time.

Just as he was struggling to remove the bricks, suddenly there was a mechanical "ahhh" sound from the cell door.Xiao Ran turned his head to look, and saw a person's head was sticking to the iron fence, looking in his direction and shouting indistinctly.

In an instant, more heads were attached to the iron fence and screamed, and dozens of thin vines protruded from the iron fence at the same time.

There was a sound of rubbing behind him, and the straw mat in the burrow was pushed open, and a thick vine with its head hanging protruded out of the burrow.

Seeing that there was no time to dig further, Xiao Ran simply kicked a few times on the edge of the hole with all his strength.The bricks on the edge of the hole fell down mixed with broken soil, but a thin crack also spread to the wall.

Xiao Ran didn't care too much, before the vines of different thicknesses approached him, he quickly slid down to the next cell.

The cell door was wide open again, but there were not so many vines and heads outside the door, and the wall on the right side was a complete piece without any gaps, Xiao Ran simply rushed out of the cell door after a simple thought.

The moment he left the cell door, the wall of the cell collapsed, kicking up a large cloud of dust, accompanied by painful wailing.

There seemed to be no vines in front of him, Xiao Ran ran towards the depths of the cell without turning his head, even the billowing morning fog didn't have time to catch up with him.

But he ran all the way and felt that something was wrong. Although there were not so many vines in the depths of the prison, on the ground and walls of the cells on both sides, there were thicker and thicker air roots criss-crossing, entangled like spider webs or blood vessels, and even Two cells were almost filled with these bucket-thick roots.

Xiao Ran's heart skipped a beat, he thought he was staying away from the man-eating vine, but now he went deep into its lair instead.

He glanced back and saw those vines and bright red flower openings that were attacking like tentacles, as if he felt that an enemy had penetrated into the core, they all gathered together and rushed towards him along the corridor in the center of the prison.

There was a head on a thick vine, the juice burst like a squeezed grape, leaving only broken bones and residual skin hanging on it, dripping green juice as the vine spread, and some heads were already twisted It is crooked and sunken in many places, and it makes a slightly painful moan.

This vine was probably hit by the entire wall when the cell wall collapsed just now.

Xiao Ran was relieved for a while, and asked you to chase me all the way along the cracks in the wall, you deserve it.

But when he turned his head and looked forward, he had already run to the end of the prison, and there was no other way except for the root system thicker than a man's waist.

He frantically flicked his flashlight around, trying to find if there was any secret door or something.When he shone the flashlight on the right wall, his eyes lit up and his heart was filled with joy.

Between the last cell on the right and the innermost wall of the prison, there is a recessed corridor as deep as the cell.In the innermost part of the corridor, there is a door with a gap, hidden behind a thick waist.
