Chapter 46 - Chapter 46 Mercury Helmet

This is a furry face. Under the beams of several mining lamps swaying in the water, you can see that this thing has a layer of fine and dense fluff on its face, like white frost on the coldest days of winter.

The white hair swaying in the water makes its face look blurry, as if it has a double image.

The face of this thing is wrinkled, like an ape, but its lips and nose are like a pig. Two extremely sharp teeth are hooked in its mouth, which are very similar to wild boars, but the fangs are sharper, like pythons. Its eyes are scarlet and bloodshot, with small pupils, white and transparent, and its long hair is almost scattered in the water.

How did it... come out?

My master and Brother Yaozi didn't even notice it! !

This is the thing that grabbed my ankle underwater at first! !

The sudden fright made me panic. The first time I reacted, I used my hands and feet to paddle frantically in the water, trying to avoid it.

This thing clearly wanted to eat me to death. It grinned at me, then "swished" to me again. It was very flexible in the water and stretched out its hands to strangle my throat.

It was a pair of dry hands, cold and sharp, like the claws of some birds of prey, and it was so powerful that it almost broke my neck.

I felt my head swell, and I kicked the thing with my legs in the water, but it was useless. The power of this thing was too great. It was obviously very thin, but it clamped me tightly. I fumbled around my waist with both hands, but I couldn't touch the Tianguan Blade in a hurry. I looked up at my master and others. They were clearly beside me, but they didn't know anything about it.

I was almost desperate. I thought I was going to die this time. I struggled more and more weakly. Just when my consciousness began to blur, a whirlpool suddenly appeared below my feet.

It was like a water dragon stirring up a storm. The water waves swept up by the whirlpool were comparable to tornadoes, sweeping back and forth in the water.

Hexibu has been opened!

Below should be the secret passage, the water in the pool poured into the secret passage to form this vortex.

My master and the others were finally alarmed, and seeing that I was being entangled by this thing, the three of them rushed towards me at the same time, but it was a pity that I was a step too late. I was already swept by the vortex, dragging the monster headlong into the hole at the bottom of the pool. The water was surging and difficult to resist. After passing through the hole, there was a completely empty space below, and I fell directly with the water flow!

The monster screamed hysterically, and it was actually a woman's voice. It seemed to be very afraid of this strong sense of weightlessness. It hung on me and didn't care about asking for my life.

Boom!

In the end, the water flow carried me and smashed me hard on the ground. Although it was not as tragic as if I fell directly, the terrible impact still made me feel chest tightness and shortness of breath. A mouthful of blood sprayed all over the monster's face. It shook its head repeatedly, and the limbs that were entangled with me became a little loose.

I took this opportunity to push its face away, and my two fingers accidentally dug into its eyeballs.

Hmm... the touch was like poking into a rotten persimmon...

Under the influence of tension and panic, I instinctively poked deeper...

Puff!

A sticky and smelly liquid splashed on my face, mixed with the screams of the monster.

I lifted its head with one hand, and kicked it hard in the stomach, kicking it directly out. It was at this time that I really felt that this thing weighed only about ten pounds at most, but I didn't know why there was such a terrifying force under the water.

At the moment, I was still moving with the water.

I don't know where this is, but the terrain should be sloping downward. The water in the pool is still pouring down, but it has not accumulated here, but continues to wash away, but the water is no longer so turbulent.

It was dark in front of me. Amid the sound of the water, I heard Zhang Xinya scream. She should have fallen down too. I have experienced it myself. I didn't die from falling down. After hearing her voice, I felt more at ease. It seemed that the distance between us was not too far.

Although I couldn't see the situation around me clearly, I could probably feel that the structure here was more complicated. It was winding along the water. Some places were narrow and some places were open. It looked like a tomb. It was much more complicated than the water burial tomb above. I just didn't know which of the four tombs of earth, fire, water and wind this was? What was buried inside?

After a long time, the scouring force of the water flow gradually disappeared. I should have entered a fairly flat place, and it was very wide. So much water rushed in that not even a small puddle was formed.

Boom!

I hit something hard.

In the dark, I could only vaguely see that it seemed to be a standing object, not high.

I was panting heavily while lying next to this thing, feeling lucky to have survived.

After a long time, I finally recovered a little strength and prepared to climb up by grabbing the thing next to me. However, when I reached out to touch it, I was stunned.

Hand?

This feeling was definitely correct. I did touch a hand, but it was cold and hard!

Could it be a human sculpture?

I was wondering in my heart. From the perspective of size, the outline of this thing really looks like a person sitting cross-legged on the ground.

I climbed up by pulling the hand of the sculpture. This thing was not very heavy. I almost fell to the ground because it was shaking.

At this time, Zhang Xinya was also washed in by the water. Her stability was relatively poor. Although she didn't spark with lightning all the way, she always fluttered and screamed. Hearing her movement, I grinned and hurriedly called her out.

Bang!

A strong light pierced the darkness here.

Zhang Xinya held up the flashlight and struggled to sit up from the water. She was not far from me, but she was in a rather embarrassed state, her body was wet, her hair was messy, and she was completely frightened. When she heard my voice, she immediately shone the flashlight towards me, then screamed "Ah", pointed behind me and shouted: "What are you still doing? Run!"

I was also scared by her doing this, and I didn't dare to look back at all, and I ran towards her.

However, Zhang Xinya calmed down at this time, looked behind me in doubt, and waved at me: "I was wrong, it's not a big dumpling, it's just a dead person."

I rolled my eyes and lay on the ground like a dead dog, thinking to myself, you are making a fuss, you scared me into sweating.

After taking a breath, I finally got up and looked behind me.

A burly man was sitting cross-legged behind me, his face clearly visible, what kind of sculpture? It was indeed a dead person, but the body did not show any signs of decay, but the skin showed a strange black and blue color, and the body was a bit dehydrated, the cheeks were sunken, and almost only a layer of dry skin was left to cover the bones.

Moreover, there was definitely not only this one here, there were many shadows in the dark place in the distance, and there were many more things like this!!

Thinking about my very intimate handshake with a mummy, I felt a little itchy in the palm of my hand.

Probably because I was a little scared by these things, I really couldn't be sure whether the person in front of me was really quiet, and I plucked up the courage to approach him little by little...

From beginning to end, the corpse was sitting there very quietly, and with meticulous observation, I got more information.

When the dead man in front of me died, he should have been no more than 30 years old, with extremely thick bones, deep eye sockets, and most importantly... his hair was chestnut! !

All these characteristics told me that this should be a white race!

However, the one in front of me is definitely not the corpse of the Aryan Yin soldiers I have seen, because the knife in his hand is still intact.

This is a typical wide-body short knife, made of iron, which can be used as a personal sword, and there is a ring on the handle, which should be able to be equipped with a long handle, directly turning it into a long weapon that can be used in combat immediately...

This kind of weapon did not exist in the era of Fu Hao. As far as I know, this kind of weapon should have appeared in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Jie tribe!!

I have already guessed the identity of this person...

This nation was once conquered by the Huns. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Huns, they followed the Huns who surrendered to the Han Dynasty to the interior as slaves and gradually became a large tribe. According to some modern research, they should be of the same lineage as the Sogdians, all descendants of the Aryans, and standard white people.

During the Five Barbarians' Rebellion, this group of grandsons was the most violent, retaining the barbaric habit of cannibalism. When China was strong, they were warm and hospitable, but when China declined, they were brutal and overbearing. The fact that the common people in the north were almost exterminated was the work of these barbarians.

Moreover, among the five Hu tribes that dominated the Central Plains at that time, only they were white people, a race of Westerners!

It was precisely because they were too brutal that only they were exterminated when the Wudao Heavenly King issued the order to slaughter the Hu.

This tomb of demons is called the tomb of demons, but in fact, many living people are buried in it, all of whom are more brutal than demons and monsters in the eyes of the last heavenly official.

Obviously, the Jie tribe is one of them.

I looked at the corpse carefully, his expression was calm, there were no fatal wounds on his body, and there was no sign of resistance. If there was anything unusual, it was only a gray "卍" on the throat.

This character is very special. It does not belong to Buddhism and has nothing to do with **. In fact, it has existed for a long time. It has existed when humans were ignorant and has appeared in various civilizations around the world.

However, it is undeniable that it has magical powers, the biggest of which is - suppressing demons!

I also noticed that there seemed to be gray traces at the corners of the corpse's mouth, like some kind of metallic liquid...

"Hey, why are you staring at a dead person?"

Zhang Xinya shouted a little irritably: "While we are not in danger yet, let's go find my uncle and the others. There was a fork when we rushed down, and we were separated. We have to go find them quickly, otherwise, with our limited ability, if anything goes wrong, we will have to explain it 100%."

"Keep your voice down!! Who told you there is no danger here!!"

I was anxious and quickly left the corpse in front of me. The series of discoveries just now made me have a guess in my heart...

I suspect... these dead people in front of me are most likely the legendary mercury helmets! !
