Some people say that the highest level of deception is to be so ruthless that you can even deceive yourself.
I think Lao Bai is such a person.
If he didn't believe his own lies, why did he shout so loudly?
Anyway, I believed his lies. His shouting made my blood boil. I was a little excited and rushed out in one breath. When I found that he was retreating, I felt unreal for a moment.
This plot is not right...
In theory, shouldn't Lao Bai resist the damage in front with a fearless attitude of "I have a tiger in my heart"?
I was annoyed. This grandson didn't have a big tiger in his heart, but a little mouse. He really tricked me.
Those red-lined lizards had already climbed onto the shallows, staring at me. This thing is the offspring of the Water Lord. Even if it becomes a wild beast, it is born with yin and yang eyes. In the past, some people in the Northeast kept this thing at home to exorcise demons. Even if I was a paper man, I couldn't escape. This time, I was completely in the tiger's mouth.
Whoosh!
The two red-lined lizards lying in the front immediately jumped towards me.
I was forced into a desperate situation. I swung the Heavenly Official Blade and hit one of them hard on the head. This stick was so powerful that it overturned the head of the red-lined lizard with a "puff" sound, and a large group of filthy things splashed on me.
At the same time, another red-lined lizard also hit me. This guy was extremely huge, with a body length of nearly two meters, comparable to the Komodo dragon, and weighed nearly 100 kilograms. How could I withstand its impact? I was thrown to the ground directly.
A lot of sticky saliva fell on my face, just like a big nose, and it was corrosive, and seemed to have extra damage to ghosts, burning my face and making white smoke "sizzle".
I endured the pain and swung the Tianguan Blade randomly, hitting the giant lizard's head with a bang, and more than once made it impossible for the other party to bite.
Unfortunately, I was suppressed to the ground, so the power I exerted was really limited. All my resistance could only ensure that the other party's big mouth would not bite my head, but could not cause any substantial damage to it.
At this time, the red-lined lizards on the shore were like mad dogs seeing bones, rushing in groups and drowning me directly.
There was a severe pain on my right calf. Obviously, a red-lined lizard dug my lower three roads and directly bit my calf. At this moment, I felt that my leg was being pulled wildly and shaking left and right. The other party seemed to want to pull it away directly...
I was almost desperate and regretted it.
There are many kinds of people, why did I choose an honest person to do it?
Puff!
The cold and smelly blood suddenly poured all over my head and face like running water. The giant lizard that was pressing on me and biting me madly twitched a few times and stopped moving!
"Get out of here!"
A roar like thunder sounded.
Then, I heard the cries of countless red-lined lizards.
When the giant lizard pressing on me was lifted up, I saw the face of Brother Yaozi, who was full of anger. He shook his arms, and with a thousand-pound arm strength, he actually lifted the giant lizard over his head and threw it out fiercely. The weight of more than 100 kilograms was several times that of most red-lined lizards, and he actually killed several lizards that were lingering around me.
Another person passed by Brother Yaozi in an instant, holding a heavy axe that we used to chop the tomb door. He raised his hand and chopped the lizard that was biting my calf into two pieces, and then swung the axe in all directions, chopping the red-lined lizards around with blood and flesh flying.
This person was Zhang Xinya.
To be precise, the Zhang Xinya I know is not so fierce. This is another her. She was tired of dealing with Shi Yi and fled in the face of the battle, but she rushed into the frenzy of the red-lined lizards, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.
"Let's go!"
Brother Yaozi pulled me up from the ground. Probably worried that my leg was bitten and I couldn't move easily, he carried me on his shoulders and rushed into the stream without hesitation.
To be fair, these red-lined lizards are not as powerful as imagined. They are just some beasts. They have flooded several times in history and were killed by humans. But there are too many of them here. Many ants can kill elephants.
There are more of these things in the stream. The ugly heads are crowded. Brother Yaozi is unable to fight them. He was bitten all over by these red-lined lizards. One of them even hung directly on his back, tearing a piece of flesh and refusing to let go. I swept it with the Tianguan Blade, and there was a palm-sized piece of flesh missing there. The bright red blood quickly seeped out of the white flesh, which was shocking.
Even so, Brother Yaozi didn't groan, and never thought of leaving me behind from beginning to end.
I really couldn't stand it. My eyes were sore and I couldn't help saying, "Brother, put me down. Let's walk side by side!"
"I'm fine."
Brother Yaozi's response was just these three words. He didn't let go at all.
The stream here was quite deep, almost submerging the thighs. The forward speed was very slow, and I don't know how many bites his legs in the water had suffered.
Soon, he rushed to the river bank with me, and his legs were already bleeding.
Lao Bai chased after us happily. The three of us struggled too fiercely, which attracted all the red-lined lizards. This grandson was not seriously injured, but was bitten on the buttocks. As soon as he landed, he immediately shouted to my master: "Mr. Zhang, we are here to help you!"
My master was chasing the Yin slave and kicked him away. He hit a limestone pillar and waited for the other party to land. He chopped him on the head with a sword.
A burst of black air lingered, and when it dissipated, a puppet was left there.
"Hehehe..."
A strange and weird laugh echoed here: "If you can't kill me, you should consider my master's request. How about we make peace?"
My master was in a bad situation at this time. He had to deal with the harassment of those red-lined lizards and the Yin slave. His black hair was messy and his robe was already stained with blood. At this moment, his eyes were cold. He looked back at us and said in a low voice: "Take Jingzhe away. Don't let him fall into the hands of these things!"
I'm afraid Lao Bai has been waiting for this sentence for a long time. Without saying a word, he ran away.
After a slight hesitation, Brother Yaozi turned around and took me away. At the same time, he said to Zhang Xinya, who looked unwilling, "That ghost slave has a scapegoat. I'm afraid that he will be entangled and can't be taken down for a while. Let's go first. It's important to protect Jingzhe. These things can't do anything to my uncle!"
More and more red-lined lizards crawled out of the water...
These things obviously didn't want to let us go, and they chased us to death.
There are countless black mustard seeds in the belly of the Dragon Lady. Only one birth is enough to make these things overwhelming. This place has been sealed for thousands of years. God knows how many red-lined lizards have been bred.
This way, there are even more dangers. Even Lao Bai is no longer relaxed. He was almost bitten into a bloody man.
Wherever Brother Yaozi passed, a long bloodstain was left on the ground. I asked him to put me down several times, but he refused, saying that he ran faster than me.
In fact, he had already left Lao Bai far behind.
Later, I gradually realized that Brother Yaozi had prepared for the worst.
A lion was chasing two people at the same time. If you want to escape, you don't need to outrun the lion, you just need to outrun the other person.
Among us, apart from me who has a lame leg, only Lao Bai is the slowest runner...
Brother Yaozi may be worried that Lao Bai will cheat me, or he may be thinking about giving up Lao Bai when necessary...
I sighed in my heart, not knowing what to think.
Although Lao Bai is indeed a bit mean and can cheat people, at this moment, I really don't want him to be the one who falls behind.
Facts have proved that people's resilience and potential in desperate situations are endless.
Lao Bai had a lot of injuries. I originally estimated that if he continued to run as fast as he could, he could only last for ten minutes at most. In fact, although he ran slowly, Brother Yaozi couldn't get rid of him no matter what. He was panting like a cow, his tongue was hanging out, swinging back and forth, drooling, but his two short legs never slowed down, swinging like a windmill, his desire to survive was really strong...
Gradually, everything in front of me began to change.
Some sparse underground vines began to appear, and the surroundings became open. The underground river that had originally split into many streams reunited.
The red-lined lizard that had been chasing us disappeared after reaching here, as if it had given up...
The situation was a bit weird. The red-lined lizard had good physical strength. A fellow villager in Inner Mongolia who had seen this thing had encountered it. He was chased for a whole day, and his horse couldn't run anymore, but the thing was still chasing...
There was no reason for these red-lined lizards to give up.
I looked around and noticed that there was an interesting wide area on the other side of the underground river. The limestone columns were arranged in an orderly manner, like some kind of formation.
"Brother Yaozi, stop for a while. Don't chase those red-lined lizards. Something seems to be wrong here."
I muttered in a low voice: "I looked around and felt that... this might be the third level of the burial pit!!"
