Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 462 Corpse Poison
Tofu sat down on the ground holding the chewing gum, hissed, and said, "Wood has always been inseparable. Why did you leave the two of us now and run away? Is there food behind this hole?" , we really can't think of anything that can attract the corpse fairy.

I also recovered some strength, and said: "Follow up and look for it, and see what's going on. We were both soaked, and started to walk along this washed out water channel. The burrow runs north-south, and the inside is dry. Look It looked like the groundwater here hadn't flowed in for a long time. After walking about a hundred meters, a strange smell suddenly appeared in the air.

We are not wearing a gas mask at the moment, so our sense of smell is very sensitive. The further we go, the stronger the smell. to three people.

To be exact, three corpses.

One of them should be an ancient corpse, bulging, with green hair on the surface, showing signs of corpse transformation, but unfortunately, beside it is the corpse fairy, holding the hand of this green hairy rice dumpling in its mouth, It seems to be inhaled by hand, that weird taste comes from the green hairy rice dumplings.

Sensing our arrival, the corpse fairy moved its eyeballs, looked at us, and then continued to inhale. It seemed that this thing would suddenly change its course before, because it was attracted by this green hairy rice dumpling.At the same time, in the corpse fairy, there is still a person lying down, it is the missing know-it-all, who is motionless at the moment, and it is not known whether it is dead or alive, whether it is a person or a corpse.

Tofu asked in surprise, "Why is he here?" While we were talking, the two of us quickly squatted next to Wanshitong, and I immediately felt for the pulse in his neck. Thankfully, he was still alive.I breathed a sigh of relief, checked Wanshitong's whole body, and found that there was a blackened wound on his arm, and Kang's appearance was probably injured by the green hairy rice dumpling.

Right now we don't have anything to remove the poison from the corpse, and we don't have any wound medicine, so we just squeezed some of the poisonous blood from the wound.But there is a lot of poisonous blood, and it can't be cleaned even if you squeeze it for a while, so I said to the tofu: "Xiaodou, I have a task for you. Don't you have a wound in your mouth? Help suck it, it will work well."

Tofu rolled his eyes and said, "I bit my tongue while eating yesterday, and there is a wound." The kid looked like he was lying, so I kicked him and said, "I know it's disgusting, but it's human life. Guan Tian, ​​can you be braver?"

Seeing what I said, Tofu reluctantly took two mouthfuls, and immediately spit out two mouthfuls of extremely stinky blood, and the wound didn't look so dark anymore.Blood stained with corpse poison is the smelliest, and it smells like a corpse. After sucking the tofu, he vomited and vomited, and then he reacted and said, "No...why do you want me to suck it? You don't have any wounds in your mouth. Damn, you lied to me again." At this moment, I still tore off my clothes and bandaged Wanshitong.

Smiling secretly in his heart, without showing any emotion on his face, he said: "I was thinking, if you don't want to, I'll do it again, who made you agree so readily." It's ugly, anyone who takes a mouthful of blood with the smell of corpses in his mouth will look so ugly.

"My surname is Chen, I want to break up with you...Is there anyone who treats a brother like you? The brother is used to let you betray me like this." After waking up, my pupils were a little slack, and it took me a long time to focus. I looked at Tofu and me, my voice was hoarse, and I seemed a little uncertain, and said: "Chen Xuan? You, why are you here?"

I helped him to sit up and said, "Never mind why we are here, how do you feel?"

Wanshitong gasped for a few times, his lips turned black, and said, "I'm dizzy, I can't breathe, and I can't seem to move my body." Most of the green hairy rice dumplings are poisonous rice dumplings, I know it's too late to remove the poison, Wanshitong Now the poison has entered the blood, if it is delayed any longer, my life will be lost.

The Tufuzi, who were fighting against each other, summed up a set of effective methods to deal with corpse poison. Taking herbal medicine internally, and soaking in glutinous rice and cinnabar externally can remove the poison.But in this place, where can I get him herbs, cinnabar, and glutinous rice?At this time, Wanshitong held his head in pain and said, "I'm afraid I can't do it anymore. Where are they who are in charge?"

So I told him about my experience of coming here with Tofu, and then said: "They should be safe now."

Seeing Wanshitong's appearance that he was not far from death, Tofu didn't bother to complain that I lied to him. He looked very uncomfortable, and comforted him and said, "Xiao Xu, you will be fine, let's meet Zhuanrui quickly, that yin and yang face There are many ideas, and there must be a way to save you."

Wanshitong forced a smile, and said: "My nickname is Wanshitong. There is no other way to save this life. Please, take me out of here. I have something very important to tell the master." Only then did I realize that there was still something in the inner pocket of his coat. It seemed that it was probably taken from the old corpse.I directly took that thing out, only to realize that it was a key, a key as long and thick as a woman's forearm.

Tofu said dumbfounded: "How big is this lock to be worthy of this key?"

Passage of all things: "Actually, there is a map outside the key, but after I fell into the water, I was taken away by the poisonous zongzi, and the map has been lost in the water." Then, all things talk about his experience.

He was squatting in front of the ancient corpse, and transferred the contents of the ancient corpse's arms into his pocket. Immediately afterwards, when he raised his forehead, he suddenly faced the strange mask of the petrified ancient corpse. The double fish eyes and the spiral pattern on the mouth seemed to move, and then his consciousness was blurred, and many hallucinations appeared in front of his eyes.When I woke up, it was the moment when I was kicked down, but by then it was already too late.

Know-it-all thought he was going to die, but he didn't expect to fall into the water and save his life.When he was still in shock and floated to the surface, he couldn't see the sky and the bottom, and he had no sense of direction. If it wasn't for the headlights on his head, it would have been even worse.

Wanshitong subconsciously touched the things in his arms, heaved a sigh of relief, and said that luckily nothing was lost.Since he didn't know the direction and didn't know where to go ashore, Wanshitong floated on the water and didn't rush to swim. Instead, he opened the thing he got from the ancient corpse first to confirm its safety.

Only then did the know-it-all realize that this thing was a huge gold key wrapped in a leather roll.

What kind of lock is such a big key used for?At that time, Wan Shitong also had this idea. Immediately afterwards, he looked at the leather roll, only to find that it was a map drawn on it.The map is divided into three layers. The first layer is a building in the world, with a high-pointed dome and a large scale, like a certain palace.Know-it-all suspects,.The palace depicted on the map should be the palace we were in before.

On the second floor, there is a space with a black background. The space is an inverted V-shaped structure, but the strange thing is that there are densely packed people drawn on it, all with expressionless faces, walking towards the bottom of the inverted V , Their expressions are mournful, as if they are going to die, and at the bottom of the V shape, there are countless torches, and beside the torches, there are people wearing masks.

These two layers are only roughly drawn, vaguely, and occupy relatively little space. What really makes people feel strange is the third layer.

A gate appeared on the third floor. A masked person led a mighty crowd standing outside the gate, as if some kind of ceremony was being held. Outside the gate was a huge totem pole with fox-like figures Things should be Huyuduo, but there are so many of them, even through simple lines, there is a weird feeling.

The most peculiar thing is that this map also uses the method of perspective to draw the things behind the gate.People wearing masks led many people to perform sacrifices in front of the totem poles. Behind the gate, there were circles of spiral patterns, like a huge whirlpool, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

But when Wanshitong was concentrating on looking at the map left by the ancient corpse, he didn't realize that danger was quietly approaching.

He was concentrating on watching, when he suddenly felt that his ankle was suddenly pulled by a hand, dragging him to the bottom of the water. The master of everything is very good at water, has undergone professional training, and can hold his breath underwater for about 4 minutes, so the moment he was pulled into the water , Wanshitong didn't panic, and pulled out the dagger with his backhand, ready to fight with the underwater things.

Unexpectedly, when he entered the water, he found that what was holding him was a green-haired thing. For a while, the know-it-all thought it was a water monster, and the dagger repeatedly greeted the green hair, but it seemed to be pierced by an iron plate, and soon exhausted , and the leather map also fell into the water and disappeared.

In the end, he was pulled into this hole. Only then did Wanshitong realize that he was a poisonous zongzi. Zongzi was bloodthirsty, and he liked to tear people apart when fighting, but poisonous zongzi likes to suck human blood. , So I ran away, but I ran here, but I was in a desperate situation, and I had no choice but to fight to the death with the poisonous rice dumpling.

This zongzi is not very powerful, but it is highly toxic, Wanshitong did not suffer much, but as time went by, the toxicity flared up, and finally passed out from exhaustion.
