Chapter 88 Corpse-devouring rat
Later I found out that we were actually quite lucky that day. The other two holes were full of traps, and only the hole on the right was the main one. Of course, the reason I chose the right path was because I practiced the qi observing technique. As for how I learned it later, let’s not mention it for now, it will happen two years later.
Walking into the cave on the right, walking for several miles, the temperature gradually dropped, and I suddenly felt cool.
"I really didn't expect it to be so cool here." The King Kong Cannon looked around the water droplets formed by the temperature difference on the left and right stone walls.
"Look at what that is." I pointed to the little animal that appeared vaguely at the corner in front of me.
"No matter what he is." King Kong Pao said, lifting his rifle and firing it at a point, directly hitting the thing lying on the ground in front of him and flying flesh and blood.
"Old Yu, look at what this thing is?" King Kong Cannon quickly stepped forward and lifted the animal he killed with his hand. He saw that the animal in King Kong Cannon's hand was similar to a mouse, but it was much bigger, with hairless all over his body, pink skin exposed, blood red eyes, and beardless on his mouth. He looked very disgusting.
"Chongmouse, but the color of his eyes is wrong." The moment the King Kong Cannon mentioned the animal, I recalled this animal. The secrets and maps left by the Taoist riding the wind were made of the skin of this disgusting little animal in front of me.
"Is this the Cold Rat?" King Kong Cannon threw away the bloody corpse. "Why does it live here?"
"The cold rat lives in a cold place, there should not be any here, and the eyes are green and should not be red." I said, pulling out the galloping horse and walking forward.
"Are you a relative of the Cold Rat, a Hot Rat?" King Kong Pao guessed cleverly.
"I haven't heard of hot rats, let's go." The cave was almost over, and a cliff appeared in front of me, and the temperature was even lower. King Kong Pao and I were very surprised to breathe and frost.
He and the King Kong Cannon walked carefully to the end of the cave, and saw a huge pit at the end of the cave. When they leaned over, they couldn't help but feel their hair standing up.
Below the cliff is a huge pit, with countless corpses in ancient costumes piled up at the bottom of the pit, and countless chill mice clinging to the corpses and chewing and swallowing. The squeaking sound is creepy.
"My grass, what the hell is this?" King Kong Pao turned around and looked at me tremblingly. "Old Yu, smoke me a cigarette."
Since the King Kong Cannon swallowed the ginseng seeds, he has been afraid to smoke, and he doesn't care about that much at this moment. I pulled out one and lit it and handed it to him, and lit one myself, sitting on the edge of the cliff and watching the bloody scene below.
There was a thick pile of corpses under the huge pit. The clothes were probably from the Ming Dynasty, and there were soldiers and civilians. Many of them had been gnawed by the cold rats, and only the skeletons remained, and some of them remained in their original shape and did not rot. There was no blood flowing out of the part where the cold rats were gnawed. There was no rotten smell in the air.
"Old cow, these below are indeed cold rats!" I bit my cigarette mouth hard. "The reason why it is so cool here is probably because of the cold air emitted by the cold rat."
"What's going on with those dead people?" King Kong Pao was so nervous that he even forgot to let go of his fart, his face turned pale. The scene below was indeed terrifying, and even my mind was blank at the moment.
"Maybe the cold air emitted by the cold rats did not rot. As for why there were corpses, I don't know." I shook my head and replied.
"Look, there are cow bones underneath." I followed his gesture and looked down. Sure enough, a large animal skeleton that was not like human bones was found among the numerous corpses. The flesh had been gnawed. However, the King Kong Cannon often did a lot of slaughtering cows and pigs, so he should not read it wrong.
"Those dead people and animals are likely to be food for cold rats. If they are buried alive, they cannot be so messy. If they are trapped, they cannot be civilians. If they are silencers, they should not be cattle and sheep..."
"Don't say it," King Kong Pao threw down his cigarette butt and stood up. "Who keeps such a bunch of things for what?"
"How can I know? Observe the breath first." I stood up and pinched the magic trick. Murong Zhuifeng eagerly woke up, there must be her reason. The Fire Crucible Dragon must not refer to these cold mice. That sentence is even more unsatisfactory. The dense group below is full of thirty, let alone thirty, but three thousand.
"There!" King Kong Cannon was the first to discover that "the place in the northwest corner cannot see through the breath, it should be the iron gate."
I looked in the direction he pointed, and there was indeed a vague place that was ten feet square. It was indeed a Taoist sect based on the shape. However, if you want to get there, you must pass through the huge pit under your feet.
"That thing doesn't bite people, right?" King Kong's face turned pale when he heard me say he was going to get into a trap.
"Don't bite people, eat people." I grabbed his backpack with a wry smile. "Look for something to tie your trouser legs, don't get in and bite your life."
"It's a pain to Zhuifeng." King Kongpao muttered and put on the pants in his backpack. After a moment, we put on everything we could wear, which was almost the same as two snowballs.
"I'd love to have a helmet." The King Kong cannon tied the rope and prepared to slide down.
"Don't be slow after going down, just run to the iron gate." I said, grabbing the rope and slowly descending to the bottom of the pit. The huge pit was at a forty-five degrees angle to the position where we were standing before, and it was not very steep.
When they went down to the bottom of the pit, the two looked at each other, pinched the Fengxing Jue and started running. The cold rats at the bottom of the pit were disturbed and rushed towards me and the King Kong Cannon. We dared not delay and rushed towards the iron gate in the northwest corner in ignorance.
After running out, trouble came. The corpses at the bottom of the pit were stacked layer by layer, and I don’t know how many were piled up. Many of the corpses on the top seemed complete, while the ones below had already been empty. The King Kong Cannon accidentally fell into the air and fell into the pile of corpses until it reached the waist. Seeing that there was an opportunity, the cold mouse rushed towards him one after another.
"I'm a grass." King Kong Cannon cursed and turned around the rifle behind him, shooting directly, knocking away the several winter mice that were pounced on him. The smelly rat blood splattered his head and face.
Seeing that the King Kong Cannon was in danger, I hurriedly turned around and ran to rescue him. The man swung it out, killed a few cold rats, and bent down to pull the King Kong Cannon out.
"It's so dangerous, so dangerous." The King Kong Cannon shot a few winter mice that were rushing to the front and then turned around and ran away.
"You open the door, I'll hold it." We quickly ran outside the iron gate in the northwest. The King Kong Cannon turned around and fired the cold mouse that followed, shouting at me anxiously.
Upon hearing this, I hurriedly rushed to the iron gate, and saw that the iron gate in front of me was about one meter wide and very thick, but there was no handle switch on the iron gate, so I had nowhere to focus.
"Old Yu, hurry up, why do these things still jump?" King Kong Pao was not careful and blood was flowing in his ears by a jumping chilly mouse.
Hearing the urging of the King Kong Cannon, I became even more anxious. I looked up and down the iron door repeatedly and found three iron window edges on the upper part of the iron door. Looking inside, I saw a dragon head-shaped protrusion appeared on the stone wall inside the tomb passage inside, but it was about ten meters away from the iron door. In desperation, the general returned to the sheath, pinched the left hand and stretched out the right hand, used the imperial Qi Move Mountain Technique, and emitted a tangible true energy. He tried to push and pull the dragon head switch on the stone wall. Finally, after pulling the iron door, he reacted and slowly moved to the left. I turned around and grabbed the diamond cannon and jumped in.
"tmd" King Kong Cannon cursed and raised his rifle to smash several winter mice that followed him. I hurriedly ran over to grab the gear-shaped mechanism and closed the iron door.
"Old Niu, are you okay?" I closed the iron gate and walked quickly towards the King Kong Cannon, checked his injuries, and found that the right earlobe was torn off by the jumping cold mouse.
"Die mouse, dare to destroy my appearance." King Kong Pao was so angry that he touched his ear, he raised his rifle and beat several dead mice to pieces.
"Pack it." I said with concern.
"It's okay, I can't die." King Kong Cannon casually wiped the blood that had flowed on his face. "How did you open the door just now?"
"Use the Mountain Movement Method." I pointed to the dragon head mechanism on the stone wall. "All mechanisms must be opened and closed with the spells of this sect. I suspect that this tomb may be related to our fellow sects."
"Will the fellow disciples come up with such a destructive trick and kill so many people?" King Kong Pao shook his head.
"Let's go, that weak aura is right in front of you, just look at what it is."
