"Damn it."

I cursed and raised the dagger in my hand.

Since these guys are looking for death, I won't be polite.

It's a dead end anyway, so rather than sit back and wait for death, it's better to take the initiative.

"Go to hell for me."

I shouted, swung the dagger in my hand, and stabbed them.

Pfft...

Along with the sound of a sharp blade being inserted into flesh, a stream of warm blood spattered on my face.

It felt bad, but now I didn't care to wipe my cheek because my dagger was stuck in a guy's chest.

"Hey hey hey."

It grinned, and its empty eyes looked at me with a ferocious look.

As if I didn't feel any pain at all, I looked at these guys in disbelief. At this moment, they had surrounded me.

Xu Jinxiu and the others stood on the plank road with anxious expressions on their faces.

"Hey Hey."

These five water ghosts looked at me and laughed at the same time. The hairs all over my body stood up. Is this more uncomfortable than killing me?

I pulled out the dagger forcefully and stabbed it into its abdomen, causing blood to splatter again.

It felt like a knife cutting through the fabric, it was disgusting.

I gritted my teeth and endured the creepy feeling, and kept backing away.

There seemed to be a vague sound of a flute. As soon as the sound sounded, the five water ghosts became violent.

His eyes that were blank just now turned blood red, and he opened his mouth full of fangs and bit me directly.

If I hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands, I would have punched him with my fist, and that mouth would have bitten my neck.

Seeing that I was in danger, Liu Bao took out a bag of explosives and threw it down.

I looked at the ignited explosives and looked at Liu Bao in confusion.

Liu Bao scratched his head in embarrassment and lit the explosive pack in a moment of nervousness.

I cursed secretly in my mind and ran directly towards the explosive pack.

The fuse burned slowly enough for me to leave.

The five water ghosts saw me running away and chased after me.

"boom."

There was an explosion and my whole body was knocked to the ground. As soon as I raised my head, I saw a withered arm falling in front of my eyes.

When the five water ghosts approached the explosive pack, they were blown into pieces.

Looking at the parts all over the floor, I shook my head with a wry smile. Fortunately, I ran fast just now and was far away from the explosive pack.

Although my head hurts a little now, fortunately it doesn't hinder anything.

I climbed up with some difficulty and climbed up the plank road with Xu Jinxiu's help.

At this moment, in the dark river, those white corpses had disappeared.

If my guess is correct, these white corpses and those water ghosts should be the same thing.

Water ghosts are their toys when they grow up.

"Let's go!"

Xu Jinxiu stretched out a hand and pulled me to follow them towards the middle of the cliff.

The entrance to this plank road is in the middle of the cliff.

I am very curious about who built this plank road, but we have no time to worry about it now. The most important thing now is to pass here quickly.

When we reached the end of the plank road, a stone gate blocked our way.

Chen Wei looked back at me with a confused look on his face.

On the map, there should be a passage here, but when we arrived, it looked like this.

I nodded and walked towards the stone door.

After groping for a while, I was convinced that the mechanism to open the stone door was here.

But there was nothing in front of us.

"How about I use explosives?"

Liu Bao looked up at me with a questioning tone, and I smiled bitterly.

Light the explosives now. Even if the stone gate can be blown open, the plank roads behind us will probably collapse.

That outcome would be a catastrophic blow to all of us.

As the saying goes, if there is a good mountain, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain.

"You guys stay outside first."

I glanced at Xu Jinxiu and the others and told them to stay where they were and be on guard.

Xu Jinxiu and Liu Bao nodded.

They are responsible for guarding here. I observed the stone gate for a while and I am convinced that this stone gate has some connection with Qimen Dunjia.

According to the general principles of Qi Men Dun Jia, a clue was found.

After groping for a long time on the wall, I finally found a mechanism.

With a slight push, the stone door slowly moved to the left.

Behind the stone door is a deep and dark tunnel. The oil lamps on both sides all lit up the moment the stone door opened.

Looking at the long tunnel, I couldn't help but wonder why this tunnel looked so eerie.

"Follow me, be careful not to hit the stone wall."

I reminded.

Xu Jinxiu nodded, and led Chen Wei, Liu Bao and others to follow me carefully towards the tunnel.

Along the way, we did not encounter any danger, except that the humidity inside was quite serious.

"There's an underground palace ahead!"

I also doubted my eyes. In front of us, an underground palace actually appeared.

Underground, this underground palace looks particularly weird, especially the environment around us, which is filled with an indescribable coldness.

"Walk!"

I swallowed my saliva and walked towards the underground palace first.

As soon as I walked into the main hall of the underground palace, a series of strange sounds came. These sounds seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell, full of sorrow and shrillness.

"Cover your ears and don't listen to this sound."

When I first heard this sound, I was still a little confused, but I remembered that when the water ghost suddenly became violent, wasn't there the same flute sound like this?

As soon as I finished speaking, Liu Bao looked dull and staggered towards the underground palace.

"Liu Bao?"

I yelled in surprise, and when I was about to go up and grab him, it was already too late.

Liu Bao fell to the ground and passed out.

I quickly squatted down to check on his condition. Fortunately, he just passed out from overexertion and was not seriously injured.

"What the hell is that sound?"

Xu Jinxiu frowned slightly and turned her head to look around.

I don’t know where this sound came from, but I know it must be a hallucinogenic existence.

Just as we were looking for a solution, the voice suddenly stopped.

The entire underground palace suddenly became a lot more gloomy, and rattling sounds continued to come from underground.

Xu Jingxiu and I looked at each other, and cracks began to appear on the ground under our feet.

"What exactly is going on?"

My eyes widened and I couldn't believe this scene.

"not good!"

I roared and stepped back, but I was still a step too late as a huge force rushed up from the ground.

I quickly grabbed Xu Jinxiu and jumped forward.

Plop!

The whole person fell to the ground and was almost buried in the soil, but he managed to save his life.

I patted the dirt on my body and looked back. Liu Bao had disappeared without a trace.

And where I was before, a giant pit appeared.

Xu Jinxiu also got up from the ground and looked at that place with a look of horror.

I have a hunch that there must be something in that big pit?

Sure enough, before we could take a breath, two huge tentacles rose up from below.

It's exactly the same as the one we met in the dark river before.

Xu Jinxiu was so frightened that she took a few steps back.

"What...what's going on?"

Xu Jinxiu looked scared, but still gritted his teeth and stared at the giant monster below: "Why is there such a big guy here?"

I can't figure it out either. The one in front of us now is much bigger than the one in the river before.

There was still unknown liquid leaking out of the mouth, and the smell was very unpleasant.

Dalian quickly took out the prepared gun from his backpack and handed it to us.

The huge monster seemed to sense danger and kept roaring at us.

The mucus sprayed from the mouth adhered to the ground, and it smelled extremely bad for a while.

"Shoot."

I looked at this huge creature in front of me. It was just like a squid, but it was many times more ferocious than a squid.

Xu Jinxiu nodded, pulled the trigger and shot at the head of the large monster in front of him.

boom!

The bullet penetrated the monster's head, and blood spattered, completely dyeing the huge body red.

But what horrified us was that even so, the monster still stood there.

Although there was a big hole in its head, it didn't seem to be injured at all.

My heart sank and I backed away.

"Oh shit!"

Looking at such a powerful monster, I couldn't help but curse.

"Go quickly."

I shouted to Xu Jinxiu and the others, turned around and ran into the underground palace.

Seeing us escaping, the monster climbed out of the pit, dragging two long tentacles behind it, and Liu Bao was curled up on one of the tentacles.

Thinking about it, the flute sound just now was probably to summon this monster.

The source of the flute sound should be in the underground palace.

Thinking of this, we quickened our pace and rushed directly into the underground palace.

But as soon as we entered, we were all dumbfounded.

Above the main hall, there are mummies hanging on top, and countless human pupae below.

For a moment we didn’t know whether to advance or retreat.

The moment I hesitated, the monster behind me was already catching up, faster than I imagined.

Boom!

I didn't have time to react at all, so I was hit hard by the monster and flew out. I hit the stone pillar, and the entire stone pillar broke with a sound.

Due to the vibration, a mummy fell directly from above.

I looked up at the picture in front of me and was stunned.

"what to do?"

Xu Jinxiu also panicked. After all, she had never seen such a scene before, and the monster was too huge, so she was confused.

I struggled to stand up from the ground and looked at the corpses in front of me.

I prayed silently in my heart that these mummies or human pupae would never wake up.

However, wishes are always beautiful, but reality is cruel.
