"To blow up or not, brothers, make a decision quickly!"
The fat man held two detonators in his hands and said in a deep voice: "If we delay any longer, we will really run out of time!"
In fact, we know that we can't afford to delay without him saying it, but detonating detonators in a tomb with a soft geological structure is simply a gamble with life! !
"I agree to blow it up!"
At this time, Cao Yuan whispered on the side: "If it is a choice between being buried alive and being bitten to death by corpse beetles, I choose to be buried alive!"
I have to say that this little girl who looks weak in character has given me a shot of adrenaline!
In fact, if you think about it carefully, being buried alive is better than being bitten to death by these corpse beetles, and the corpse will eventually become a nest for them to raise larvae. So after a little hesitation, I gradually calmed down and stood on the side that agreed to blow it up.
After a while, everyone else also expressed their opinions. Except for Zhang Jinya who was a little hesitant, the rest agreed to blow it up. There is really no better way at the moment.
"Yishiting, cover me, the rest of you take care of yourselves, retreat!!"
The fat man made up his mind, and then Yishiting took the blowtorch to clear the way in front, and the fat man followed closely behind. The two rushed to the golden coffin in the blink of an eye.
The fat man was probably right, the corpse beetle king might really be hiding in the two coffins!
When the two of them approached, the corpse beetles around them suddenly became violent. They did not attack the fat man and Yishiting directly, but rushed towards the two coffins like a tide, and directly wrapped up the two coffins, making the two coffins look like two balls rolled by corpse beetles, which looked extremely disgusting.
These corpse beetles have a very strict sense of teamwork. In fact, just like the tribe rules of marching ants and wolves, the queen ant and the wolf king are the core of the team. The corpse beetles are naturally centered on the corpse beetle king. Now that Fatty and Yi Shiting approached the corpse beetle king, these corpse beetles became angry and wrapped their bodies around the coffin, as if they were determined to defend the corpse beetle king.
Yi Shiting is also a girl. She is not afraid of this scalp-numbing scene. She picked up a blowtorch and sprayed fire at the corpse beetles rolling together. For a while, the corpse beetles there were burned with crackling sounds, and bursts of foul smells came out. Some corpse beetles were even burned into charcoal in the blink of an eye under the high temperature, and they were ignited by flames. For a while, there was flames and stench, and the scene was spectacular.
While Yi Shiting was burning some of the corpse beetles, the fat man stuffed the detonator into the coffin through the holes that were gnawed by the corpse beetles, and then rushed to the other coffin with Yi Shiting, pulling the long fuse.
All this seemed long, but in fact it was only a moment. I only glanced at the fat man and Yi Shiting, and then I was completely out of time - because once Yi Shiting left, without the shock of the flames, we were in danger. Some of the corpse beetles were rushing towards us, and they were clearly going to eat us alive. Now we are in a state of difficulty, so how can we take care of the fat man?
"Run!"
Qing Yi roared and ran first.
Zhang Jin Ya is needless to say, this guy is very clear about running away.
I picked up Zhou Jing, who was not very agile, and put him on my back. Then I grabbed Cao Yuan, who was still dazed, and ran away. This girl was probably scared and completely confused. She was still dazed at this time. She staggered and almost fell down when I pulled her.
The fire starters were all at Yi Shiting's place. We didn't prepare that thing in our backpacks. Without the fire, we almost stepped on the corpse beetles to run to the stairs leading to the auxiliary room. The feeling... Don't mention it. Everywhere we passed, there was a constant crisp sound of "crackling" under our feet. Every crisp sound meant that a corpse beetle was stepped on to death by us, and the body fluids flew everywhere. I almost ran with my eyes closed. The scene was too beautiful. I didn't dare to watch it, but I knew that the scene must be disgusting. It was disgusting.
Fortunately, a large number of corpse beetles were attracted by Fatty and Yi Shiting, so we were not under much pressure. In the blink of an eye, I rushed to the secret door. Just as I was about to go down, I suddenly heard Cao Yuan scream "Ah", which scared me. I turned my head and saw that a corpse beetle had climbed onto Cao Yuan's knee. The mouth of this thing was two hooks. Because I was close, I could even clearly see the corpse beetle's hook-like mouth "click". Then, Cao Yuan's camouflage uniform was torn, and his skin was cut with a nearly half-centimeter-long cut, and blood came out immediately.
This girl has delicate features and delicate skin. She looks like someone who has never suffered in her life. How could she bear the bite of the corpse beetle? I could feel her hands trembling because of the pain. Because she was bitten at the knee, she limped when she ran. It seemed that she could not go down the ninety-nine steps...
Abandon her?
No, although Zhou Jing figured out that this girl was a substitute, I also knew that her purpose in entering the Western Regions was not pure, but we supported each other along the way, and I recognized her in my heart, especially her research and thorough analysis of history, which I had a lot in common with, so I couldn't do such a thing as abandoning her. I had no choice but to stop and let Zhou Jing hold me tightly, turn around and pick her up and run away.
However, after all this time, a lot of corpse beetles have gathered around me. In addition, there are two people hanging on me, one big and one small, a man and a woman, weighing 150 to 160 kilograms. It is really a bit difficult for me with my physique. I can't run fast. In a blink of an eye, several corpse beetles jumped on my legs and bit them hard. Some of them bit my wounds that were just torn by piranhas. It hurt so much that I burst into tears. I could only grit my teeth and endure it. Fortunately, the corpse beetles in the auxiliary room below just rushed back to the ear chamber, so I was lucky to escape back.
As soon as I stopped and put Cao Yuan and Zhou Jing down, I immediately started to pull out the several corpse beetles hanging on me. There were five of them in total, but they caused me a lot of damage. In the time I was running, these things had already started to drill into my flesh from the place where my skin was torn, and basically a head had drilled in. These corpse beetles were big, not the size of dung beetles, with a body length of more than ten centimeters, and a head was at least one centimeter long, so the wounds they left on my legs were very deep. When I pulled them out, the wounds "sizzled" and blood spurted out, and I shivered all over in pain.
"I'm sorry, thank you..."
At this time, Cao Yuan suddenly whispered beside me: "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have become like this."
As a result, before I could say anything, Zhou Jing pushed Cao Yuan away with tears in his eyes, and said with a pursed mouth: "Go away, if it weren't for you, my brother wouldn't be injured like this..."
After he did this, Cao Yuan felt even more guilty, and his eyes were red.
This kid...
I was helpless, so I slapped Zhou Jing on the forehead, and then said to Cao Yuan: "Don't think too much, we are all friends, and we should help each other, but let's think about how to get through this first!"
While we were talking, Fatty and Yi Shiting also rushed down. The two were in a mess, with bloodstains on their bodies. They were obviously besieged by corpse beetles. The flame of the blowtorch in Yi Shiting's hand was already very small. As soon as the two got down, Fatty put the pulled out fuse on the blowtorch in Yi Shiting's hand and lit it, then threw the fuse directly into the ear chamber, and shouted with red eyes: "Fuck you, all of you go to hell!"
After that, he pulled the secret door and ran down the stairs.
Squeak squeak squeak...
The corpse beetles above obviously felt uneasy, and their cries became louder and louder. After closing the secret door between the two tombs, they could still be heard clearly, which was very creepy!
After Fatty and Yi Shiting ran down, they were trembling all over, not knowing whether it was because of fear or because they were too excited after playing with their lives. "Damn it, two corpse beetle kings!! They are almost the size of a washing basin, just like a thousand-year-old turtle. They bit the golden coffin board in one bite. It's so scary. If I hadn't run fast, I might have had my head cut off by that thing before I could light the fuse!"
Yi Shiting also had a lingering fear on her face.
It seems that the bomb was blown up correctly!!
If we didn't blow it up, we would have killed the two corpse beetle kings!!
At the beginning, we were still thinking about "capturing the king first" and going up to kill the corpse beetle kings with knives and fire. Now it seems that we were just wishful thinking! The horror of the corpse beetle kings that evolved from flying corpses is far beyond our imagination!
However, now that the fuse has been lit, we can only wait for the result quietly - to be alive is luck; to die is fate!
