Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 31 Forbidden Land

The so-called forbidden area means that there are taboo things inside. Not only can the strange fish outside not come in, they also have to guard in the dark river to prevent the things inside from going out. The two of them act as checks and balances.

The rock is hollow, but it is filled with water and sand. It is an ancient trap!

Water belongs to yin, sand belongs to yang, and the combination of the two can produce a suppressive effect, and those who are trapped are generally fierce things. "Xingguan Yaojue"

What is the murderous thing that is not recorded in the book?So I wasn't sure for a while.

Lao Yan nodded approvingly, and then let out a sigh of relief: "I'm afraid the contents inside are really big, so we must cheer up and greet each other with grenades at critical moments."

I didn't ask him what to do if he was buried alive with a grenade, because since he said so, it means that the things inside are very difficult to deal with, and it will always be dead, so it's better to try.

We were beating drums in our hearts when we said this, but we still bit the bullet and walked in.

"what is this?"

After walking for about ten minutes, I encountered nothing. I just wanted to say that this hole was nothing more than that, when I heard Lao Yan's surprised voice.

His flashlight focused on the soles of his feet, where there was a small pile of red things, which he couldn't see clearly.

Lao Yan squatted down, carefully put on his gloves, grabbed a handful, rubbed them in his palm, and then put them under his nose to smell them. After a long time, he said with a strange expression: "It turned out to be sand."

sand?

I also squatted down, grabbed a handful of red things in my hand, and found that it was indeed sand.

But what sand is red?And the red looks very dull, I always feel like blood...

Lao Yan stared at it for a long time, and finally shook his head: "I don't know, but it looks like someone spilled it here on purpose."

"Well, let's take a closer look." I nodded.

Sure enough, after that, you can see a handful of such sand almost every ten meters, and whenever you encounter a fork in the road, sand will definitely appear on one of the roads, as if it is showing us the way.

Lao Yan collected the sand along the way, and then asked us if we still remember the previous footprints?
"Of course I remember, if it weren't for the footprints, we wouldn't be trapped here." Company Commander Chen scolded angrily.

But I breathed out and said, the sand must have been left by Yu Chengze, right?

Lao Yan's brain was also a little short-circuited, but apart from Yu Chengze, he really couldn't think of anyone else.

"But it doesn't make sense. Since he deliberately avoided you and entered the desert alone at the beginning, why did he guide us now?" I frowned. If it was really Yu Chengze, then what exactly did he want to do?
Lao Yan sneered: "Maybe he is trying to force us to a corner."

We fell silent as soon as he finished speaking, and in the end it was Lao Yan who spoke first and said no matter what, let's go out of this cave first.

"and many more!"

I raised my hand, turned the flashlight to the maximum, and then suddenly shot forward, but the flashlight was not far away, and I didn't see anything.

Lao Yan asked me what was wrong, I looked at them strangely, and asked if they didn't hear the sound of running?

Lao Yan shook his head, Company Commander Chen and Poisonous Snake also stared at me blankly, my brows became more and more frowned, could it be that I was hallucinating?

Just when I was thinking this way, a clearer running sound came, and my expression changed suddenly: "Something is running towards us!"

This time it was not just me, they all heard it too, we all panicked, now we are on a road that can only be walked by two people, there is no way to retreat!

The speed of this thing was very fast, and almost the moment I shouted, it had come close and jumped directly on me.I dodged it sideways, but the flashlight was hit by it on the ground, and after rolling twice, it completely went out.

But before the light went out, I vaguely saw what this thing looked like - it was a person!To be precise, it was a monster whose body was half rotten, and the rotten smell emanating from its body irritated me from a long distance away, making my stomach churn.

Boom!

Just as I wanted to remind them to pay attention, I heard the sound of things falling on the ground several times, and we were completely plunged into darkness.

I quickly told them what I just saw and told them to be careful.

"Don't use guns, use knives instead!" Lao Yan shouted.

The passage here is narrow, and you can't see each other clearly. It is easy to hurt your own people with a gun.

I pulled out my dagger and stood against the wall, beside the heavy breathing of Company Commander Chen, I worriedly asked him if he was alright?
Company Commander Chen didn't answer me, I was a little surprised, I stretched out to pull him, halfway I stretched out my hand, I suddenly smelled a bad smell.I quickly withdrew my hand and asked tentatively, "Uncle Chen, where are you?"

"Chang'an, come here quickly, boy!" Company Commander Chen's voice came from not far away, and I felt a thump in my heart. I was indeed separated from them when the monster rushed over just now, so the one leaning against me now...is that monster ?

"Cuckoo." The monster made a sound like thick phlegm stuck in its throat, and without thinking about it, I raised the dagger and stabbed it vigorously.

Bang!
The dagger hit the rock, and my jaw was numb from the shock, but there was nothing in the place where the monster was standing just now.

I groped along the base of the wall and approached Company Commander Chen. It was very quiet during the process. I called out in a panic, but no one answered.

"Lao Yan, stop playing!" I growled, the passage is not wide, even if they are washed away, they should not be far away from me.

But there was still no response, I was a little anxious, cursed in a low voice, then gritted my teeth and continued to move forward.

At this moment, there was a sound of breaking wind from behind, and I rolled forward but it was still too late, and I was crushed under by the monster.

"Ugh..." The pungent stench made me retch a few times.

The monster seemed to be angry. It pressed on me and opened its mouth to bite my shoulder. I hissed in pain and gave it a knife with my backhand.When the knife went down, the monster let out a rough roar, and a foul-smelling liquid sprayed on my face, making me retch a few more times.

I wiped my face with my hand, and kept stabbing the monster with my other hand.But even though this monster roared fiercely, it never let go, and its strength was not weak. It lay on my body and gnawed a bite here and there, as if I was a delicious feast of human flesh.

"Old Yan, where are you all dead? I can't hold on any longer." I held my breath and yelled loudly.

After the cry came out, I had a strange feeling, as if the silence just now had disappeared, and I could hear the panicked footsteps of Lao Yan and the others.

Then I felt someone attacking the monster behind me. As soon as the monster's strength lightened, I immediately climbed a few steps forward and stood up out of breath.

"well enough?"

Lao Yan didn't know when he found a flashlight back, and asked me worriedly.

I breathed out: "I can't die."

"Stop chatting, why can't this thing kill you?" Company Commander Chen's exasperated voice came over, and we hurried over to help.

I saw that Company Commander Chen was wrestling with the monster, with a lot of unknown liquid on his body, and the poisonous snake kept attacking the opponent's vitals with a dagger, but this thing didn't seem to know the pain, and kept biting Company Commander Chen.

"Get out of the way!" Lao Yan yelled suddenly, and the poisonous snake and I quickly backed away, only to see him take out a handful of red sand from his bag and hit the monster directly.

"Oh!" The monster wailed in pain, and let go of Company Commander Chen. The latter quickly joined us, and asked Lao Yan in surprise, how did he know that the sand was useful?
Lao Yan said that he was just trying, after all, the place where the monster appeared happened to be a place without red sand.

Chen Lianchang looked like he had eaten a fly, and then he said with a blank face: "But it seems to be fine..."

I saw the monster whose back was facing us just now turned around slowly again, a pair of bloody claws were looming under the flashlight, and it seemed that the damage caused by the red sand to it was very limited.

"What are you doing in a daze, run!" Lao Yan yelled, we reacted, turned around and ran out, this thing can't be beaten to death, and we will die sooner or later if we consume it.

We have been walking in the passage for a long time just now, and now we started to run, and we ran to the end of the passage in a short while, and a stone gate was blocking it!
