Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 232
A burst of "cracking" roared around, and finally with a loud "bang", the floors on the walls on both sides of the corridor slowly fell like the suspension bridges in front of the two castle gates.

Xiao Ran looked at the creaking and falling corridor floor, first a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he burst out laughing.

"Tianling Sanren, I won another game, you wait, I will kick your coffin board, so that you often die without a whole body and no place to bury you. Longevity? I will let you never die Superborn!"

Seeing Xiao Ran finally showed a smiling face, Liu Shengli and Xu Er finally breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed together with Xiao Ran.Liu Shengli quickly echoed: "With our manager's ability, luck, and... this culture, there is no obstacle that we cannot overcome!"

After hearing Xiao Ran's last words, Xu Er echoed and said viciously: "Yes! He should have no offspring and no grandchildren!"

"Oh, it's okay. It's okay to let you die."

Xiao Ran made Xu Er dumbfounded by what he said.

At this time, there was another crackling sound on the walls on both sides of the corridor.The three of them followed the sound and saw that as the floor of the suspension bridge fell, over the oil lamp embedded on the wall, semicircular glass covers protruded from the gaps that were not easy to see clearly, and covered the oil lamp.

The lights in the corridor instantly shone brightly due to the effect of colored glaze.Xiao Ran looked carefully at the top of the cover, and figured out the principle of this mechanism.

For those who are familiar with the mechanisms in the tomb, such as Tianling Sanren, after entering the tomb, light the string of oil lamps and activate the Yanggua switch within an appropriate time. Not only will the floor of the suspension bridge fall in time to press the sand below, but also Let the glass cover isolate the flame of the oil lamp and the lead wire above.

That way, there's no such thing as burning the fuse, igniting the fuel paper along the way, causing the styrofoam oil to fall off the top and eventually waking up the giant desert worm.

In addition to being angry, Xiao Ran had to admire this Tianling Sanren. This is the legendary "all tricks are exhausted", right?
At this moment, a series of "click" sounds suddenly came from the floor of the suspension bridge.The sound was very incoherent, not like the normal operation of the wheels, but rather like something resisting the fall of the suspension bridge.

At this time, there was another "rustling" sound from the corridor ahead, but the oil lamp kept beating and flickering, and the floor was more than half closed, so it was difficult to see the situation in the sandy passageway.

Xiao Ran quickly turned on the flashlight, the long-range light of the wolf-eye flashlight shone along the gap between the floors on both sides, and saw a few bulges on the sand, which were stuck so that the floor could not fall.

As the bulging sand slowly slid down, the three of them widened their eyes in shock.On the sand in front, there are several desert worms of different sizes, either touching the floor, or extending their tentacles in the middle to explore the front.What they have in common is that each of the worms has a thickened neck at this time, with those mouth flaps open, facing the three people in front of the corridor.

Xiao Ran noticed that the largest one had a crooked mouth flap, which was the result of being shot with a slingshot by Xu Er before.

"His grandma's is actually not dead yet!"

Xiao Ran hurriedly dodged sideways, Liu Shengli and Xu Er also quickly jumped aside.In the next second, several streams of acid, large and small, sprayed towards the door like shotguns.

Fortunately, the amount and strength of each acid spray are incomparable to the previous acid spray of the giant desert worm alone.A large puddle of acid barely landed at the entrance of the tunnel, and the three escaped in time, almost not even considered a thrill.

"Manager! Why are there so many? Did you poke a nest of worms?" Liu Shengli shouted.

Before Xiao Ran could answer, Xu Er answered first: "What do I think, it went back to call for help just now, and called out all the wives and children at home to avenge it!"

Xiao Ran drew out his knife, stared closely at the worms slowly approaching, and said to the two of them: "What you said is all right, but not all. This kind of giant desert worm is of the same family as earthworms, so once the body is broken, It will grow into two new worms. But I didn't expect it to be so powerful, even the cut off whiskers can grow into new worms. Look!"

The two looked along Xiao Ran's light, and saw the biggest worm lifted up from the open floor crack.At the position where the tentacles were cut off near its mouthparts, several new tentacles had grown at this time, but the color was tender red, and they had not yet fully grown.And under the wound cut off by Xiao Ran before, there is also a tender red body and a new carapace that looks very soft.

And the smaller desert worms on the left, right and behind it were just like its newborn body, fresh and blood red and not fully grown.

"Manager! What should we do? One is so difficult to deal with, and there are so many?"

Seeing the swarm of worms getting closer and closer, and slowly puffing up their necks again, Liu Shengli looked quite panicked.

Xiao Ran said with a disdainful smile: "I'm already defeated, and I'm afraid that it's grandma! Now their bodies are still growing, and their abilities in all aspects are less than [-]% of what they were just now. They are very easy to deal with. Liu Er, go and pick up some for me. Take a steel thorn; Xu Er, prepare your slingshot, aim at the small ones on both sides! Let’s remove the root of it!”

Seeing that Li Ran had a plan in mind, the two of them calmed down in an instant, and they hurriedly followed Li Ran's instructions.Liu Shengli quickly gathered a few steel thorns, handed them to Xiao Ran, and kept one in his hand.Xu Er had already "loaded" the arrow, and with one eye closed, aimed at the small worm moving forward against the floor.

Indeed, as Xiao Ran said, these worms are growing, repairing wounds and forming new bodies have consumed a lot of energy and nutrition, and even their movements are much slower than before.The wide-open mouthparts were clearly accumulating strength to spray acid, but at this moment it felt more like gasping for air.

The two little worms holding on to the slate became more and more physically active, so that the gap between the floors on both sides gradually narrowed.Those worms with slightly longer bodies had no choice but to line up in the middle and move forward.

"Look at your brains..." Xiao Ran said with a smile, "Xu Er, hit me!"

When Xu Er heard this, the arrow bullet in his hand flew out in an instant, and shot the mouthpart of the little worm on one side impartially.The arrow bullet pierced through, hitting the little worm's head with mucus splashing everywhere, and the little worm spread out on the sand like a snapped monkey rubber band and twitched instantly.

Xu Er was overjoyed, and he did the same thing and killed the little worm on the other side who was responsible for the floor.The mechanism behind the wall shook twice, and the floor began to fall slowly again.

At this time, the worm brigade lined up in a row was already close at hand, Xiao Ran said to Liu Shengli: "It's pretty good to poke it!"

As soon as the words fell, he mustered all his strength and threw the steel spike in his hand.The steel thorn passed through the neck of the big worm at the front, and strung together candied haws with several worms behind.

The acid liquid that had been accumulated before was suffocated abruptly at this time.A few worms writhed non-stop just after being stabbed, and seemed to be about to lose their last strength.

Liu Shengli rushed forward screaming, stabbing the worm's fresh and new belly.Xiao Ran handed the steel thorn in his hand to Xu Erzhi, and made a show of flirting with him.

All of a sudden, "X you uncle" and "Tou your mother" can be heard endlessly in the stone room.
