Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 465 Blood

At this moment, everyone was dropped in the air, and except for their heads that could move, the rest were tied up like rabbits wrapped in silk.Zhuan Rui's upper body didn't move at all, and he kept cutting the rope with his dagger. The vine-like things in between were extremely resilient. He cut it with the dagger for a long time, and when he was about to cut it, new vines would emerge. Go up, and it's almost impossible to clean up at all.Because he was hung upside down, all the blood rushed to his head, which was very uncomfortable.

Everyone was red-faced Guan Gong at the moment, while Zhuan Rui's half-scarred face looked as if it was about to bleed.I squinted, watching something in the darkness above, wondering how to get out.

First of all, Zhuan Rui and others must have been hanging here for a while, but they are still safe and sound. It can be seen that the aggressiveness of these rattans is not very high, they seem to be just trapping people, but following this trend, even if These things don't really hurt, and we end up starving to death on them too.

Now, including myself, except for Zhuan Rui and Shixian, no one else can move, so the only breakthrough at this moment is on Zhuan Rui and Shixian.When Zhuan Rui wrote the note for the corpse fairy to bring back, he didn't know whether it was because the note was not enough, or because of some circumstances at the time, he didn't write clearly about the danger in this place. If he wrote it clearly, Tofu and I wouldn't If you got hit, just manipulate the corpse fairy to save them.

However, Zhuan Rui is not an unreliable person. He did this, probably due to some special circumstances at the time, but it is a pity that everyone dare not speak now, and they can only stare dumbly, not knowing what it means.

At this moment, the corpse fairy is still lying on the spot, basically not moving. The distance between me and the corpse fairy is about four or five meters, and the corpse fairy is about two meters away from Zhuanrui, which means that the distance between me and Zhuanrui and others is about At six or seven meters.With this distance, the two sides can't touch each other. I thought about it, but I really didn't know what to do. I thought, do I really want to take the risk to speak?
When these things are wrapped around a person's body, they are already tight enough, but if they are allowed to enter the mouth, it will not be...

What's more, Shixian is a guy who doesn't work at all times. If it's for nothing, wouldn't it be over?
After thinking about it, I had no idea, and at this moment, Zhuan Rui seemed to have decided to risk his life, so he inserted the dagger back into his waist, turned his upper body sideways, and pulled the stone wall towards the corpse fairy. His body turned into a twisted L shape.

This movement put a lot of pressure on the strength and flexibility of the waist. When Zhuan Rui got into the pose, his forehead was covered with sweat, and then he stretched out his hand to reach the corpse fairy, but unfortunately, he was still a little short.Zhuan Rui's height is about 1.8 meters [-]. At this moment, his upper body is straight and his arms are stretched, and he is immediately closer to the corpse fairy.But there is always a gap of about thirty or forty centimeters between the two.Zhuan Rui couldn't reach it, a haze flashed across his face, and finally, not knowing what he was thinking, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and threw it towards the corpse fairy's face.

As a result, the body lost its strength, and the whole person swung over, returning to the state of being hung upside down.Of course, the dagger couldn't possibly cause any harm to the corpse fairy. After touching the corpse fairy's face, it fell straight down and fell into the dark waters below.

At this time, the corpse fairy finally reacted, turned his head, and stared at Zhuan Rui who 'attacked' it.

I know that Zhuan Rui is taking a risk now, he wants to attract the corpse fairy's attention first, and then make plans after leading the corpse fairy over.But the corpse fairy will fight back by itself, and no one can predict whether the corpse fairy will be led over or directly attack Zhuanrui.

I felt my heart in my throat, and a thought came to my mind: no.If this continues, he will die. If Zhuan Rui's method is useless, it seems that someone must make a sacrifice.The corpse fairy usually only listens to Tofu's words, and will respond to most of my words, as for the others, it completely ignores them.

I once thought about the reason, and recalled the experience of meeting the corpse fairy. At that time, there was a key detail, but I still haven't figured it out yet.At that time, I, Mr. Chen and Lu Su, the three of us brought the thousand-year life-protecting corpse king to lure the corpse fairy, but we made a mistake in our calculations. We did not expect the corpse fairy's combat power to be so powerful. Clean up.

Later, Lu Su was slapped flying by the corpse fairy and broke a rib. Immediately afterwards, the corpse fairy rushed towards me. I thought my life was in danger, but who knew it suddenly smelled on me, as if smelling something , In the end, not only did it not hurt me, but it started to follow me like tofu.

So I judge that the key point is the smell.

It should be me and the tofu have the same smell.

I once wondered if it was because Tofu and I had absorbed the red smoke from the Heavenly Soldiers, but it was later proved that the smoke was not corpse gas, but a gas with special effects formed during the process of refining corpses. , filled with the ice cave where the corpse immortal lives, besides me and Tofu, Chen Ci and Lu Su also stayed there for a long time, if it is because of the smoke, then Lu Su should also have that smell Son, why did the corpse fairy show no mercy to Lu Su?

I have always been unable to figure out this question, but in the current situation, if the corpse fairy wants to save people, one of Tofu and I must speak. In fact, Tofu has a much higher chance of success, but I dare not take the risk. This risk, if you really want to take the risk, it should be taken by me.

Thinking of this, I decided to wait and see what happened, and see what Zhuanrui's plan was. If Zhuanrui's plan failed, then I had to risk my life.

At this moment, the corpse fairy's attention was attracted by Zhuanrui, its throat moved, as if it wanted to speak, but it guessed that its consciousness was not strong enough, and its vocabulary was insufficient, so it made a series of breath sounds in its throat, but did not spit it out. one word.

I was secretly anxious, it seemed that Zhuanrui's strategy did not cause too much reaction from the corpse fairy, so I took a deep breath and decided to give it a try. At this moment, there are countless rattan-like things moving around my head, with rough surfaces Incomparably, if you look closely at it, under the light, you can see a very fine furry thing on it. When you think that this thing will stick into your mouth, you feel creepy.

In the end, my heart broke and I was about to speak. Suddenly, Tofu seemed to notice something. He shook his head at me with a nervous expression, signaling me not to take any risks.Immediately afterwards, without knowing what to think, he closed his mouth and made a humming sound.The corpse fairy's attention was immediately attracted, and he quickly crawled to our side.Tofu showed a happy face, and continued to hum while struggling, and the corpse fairy made a series of gasps beside him, which were completely two languages ​​that ordinary people could not understand.

I was speechless for a moment, I could only wait and see what happened.

But obviously, Tofu's dumb speech is not up to the standard, and the corpse fairy's IQ is not up to the standard. It has been wandering around us, but it has no intention of saving people.Tofu couldn't hold back any more, and cursed angrily: "Damn it, you're so stupid that you can die!" As soon as the words fell, Tofu realized that he was causing trouble, and shut up quickly, but it was too late, and a vine slammed into his mouth. into the mouth.My heart skipped a beat, and I felt my blood go cold all over my body.

And at this moment, Tofu was finally clever. After the thing got in, he gritted his teeth tightly to prevent it from going deeper. The thing was so powerful that it didn't take long for the gums bitten by Tofu to bleed. , and at this moment, it seemed that the fresh blood stimulated the corpse fairy. It tilted its head, stretched out its claws, and pulled out the vine easily. Put the rattan in your mouth and chew.

The tooth strength of the corpse fairy is not something that this thing can resist. After chewing it, it bites into pieces. In the end, it probably feels unpalatable and spits it out.My heart skipped a beat: If the blood can stimulate it, then... things will be easy.

I winked at Tofu, and Tofu also understood what I meant, with a sad face, and asked me with his eyes, if there is another way.I glared at him, indicating that being a human being should be full of the spirit of sacrifice. It is to make you bleed, not to kill you.

After going back and forth, Tofu couldn't help it, then took a deep breath, the flesh of his cheek protruded slightly, finally closed his eyes and bit it, then lowered his head, and sprayed a mouthful of blood mist towards the vines on his body.Sure enough, the corpse fairy was attracted, and immediately stretched out his hand to fiddle with those vines. Wherever he went, the vines backed away one after another, gradually revealing Tofu's body.He was also prepared for a long time, watching the vine recede, and was about to fall into the water, but he suddenly hooked his hand around the corpse fairy's neck, his whole body was like a koala.

How do you say that, a fox pretends to be a tiger.At this moment, those things did not dare to approach the corpse fairy, and the tofu was lying on the corpse fairy's back, so those things naturally did not dare to approach the tofu.

Tofu stuck out his bloody tongue, hissed and gasped, and said, "It hurts me to death, the girls in TV dramas who bit their tongues to commit suicide are so courageous, can a Band-Aid be put on the tongue?" I thought angrily. Killing someone, he gave him a hard look, and signaled that he should not be a good boy when he got cheap, and save people quickly.

Tofu dragged his tongue, and said to the corpse fairy inarticulately: "Wood, it's time for you to show your power. Tear up these strips for me. Tear that one first..." As he said, he pointed at the corpse. I, I thought to myself, can you make your speech clearer, you are tearing these vines, not me!What if the corpse fairy misunderstands!
