Those blood-red eyes seemed to be staring at everyone on the chain bridge at this moment.
Just as I thought, the moment those blood-red eyes appeared in the dark abyss, countless vines climbed up the chain bridge.
Faced with such a terrifying scene, I deliberately avoided the edge for a while, but I had no choice but to look back and saw that my retreat was already blocked by vines.
They crisscrossed each other, forming a wall of vines behind me.
All the vines stopped twisting violently at the same time, and they were not attacking everyone on the bridge, but instead wrapped around the bridge body.
All the vines pulled down the iron cable bridge at the same time, causing the bridge to make a clicking sound.
At that moment, I finally knew the ultimate intention of your unknown creature in the abyss. It wanted to completely break the chain bridge and bury us all here.
The chain bridge seemed to be extremely strong, but it turned out to be so fragile under the pull of the strange creature. The thick chains began to burst wantonly, and irreparable cracks appeared.
The chain bridge was shaking violently under the precarious situation, so that we could only hold on to the chain cables on both sides with both hands to stabilize our bodies without being thrown down.
"Master Hu, the bridge is about to break, move quickly!"
The old man roared, and with another casual move, a ball of flame burned out of thin air again.
In front of the old man, there was a wall with the same vines intertwined with it. The moment it touched the flame, it burned instantly.
In the flames, the vine wall gradually disintegrated, and a gap appeared in the flames.
After the old man opened a gap, he was the first to rush over, and then ran straight to the other side of the chain bridge.
The remaining people followed closely and rushed through the gap burning with blazing fire, just like a circus performance of jumping through fire rings.
Or maybe they discovered that we were escaping, and more vines were twisting and chasing us. The shaking of the chain bridge became more and more intense, and it might break at any time.
Chen Qiuyu, Fatty Wu, and I were always at the back, and Fatty Wu was at the bottom because of his wide body and fat body.
Fatty Wu may have the strength, but when it comes to action, he is so slow that he doubts his life.
"Idiot, save me!"
Fatty Wu shouted. Hearing this, I suddenly turned around and found that the vines that were chasing me had already wrapped around Fatty Wu's feet, making him unable to move any further.
The vine was as thick as my wrist, and pulling alone would not help. In desperation, I remembered the sharp knife in my trouser leg, and pulled it out without much thought until I removed the curtain covering the outside of the knife. When I was doing the cloth, I suddenly realized that I had forgotten that the sharp knife was contaminated with poison.
I was stunned for a moment, but I quickly came to my senses, because if I didn't take action, Fatty Wang's roughly two hundred kilograms would probably be squeezed dry in front of my eyes.
I held the sharp knife stained with poison in my hand and slashed at the vine with all my strength.
As I swung the knife, the vine was chopped off by me, and red blood continued to splatter from the twisted fracture.
Only one vine was chopped off by me, and dozens more vines rushed in front of me.
I pulled Fatty Wu behind me, waving the sharp knife in my hand while moving back.
As the vines were chopped off by me, I saw a strange scene.
Originally, the liquid that flowed out after the vines were chopped was bright red like blood, but for some reason, the color became darker and darker, even turning into black.
Buzz…!
In the dark abyss below the chain bridge, a long buzzing sound came from the blood-red eyes.
Then the vines that were entangled with me a second ago suddenly froze in mid-air.
All the vines lost their original vitality at the same time, and it felt like time suddenly stood still.
I froze in place for a while before looking at the sharp knife in my hand.
I saw that the newly stained drop of bright red liquid was changing into inky black at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At that moment, I suddenly realized that the reason why all the vines stopped moving at the same time was because they were contaminated with the poison on the sharp knife.
I felt extremely lucky about this, thinking that it was a good thing I had brought this sharp knife with me, otherwise I would have been sucked out of flesh and blood by those vines and turned into a mummy.
When I came back to my senses, I turned around and looked at everyone again, only to see that they had all reached the other side safely.
Although all the vines have lost their vitality, the iron cable bridge is still shaking. Every shaking will trigger a chain reaction, causing the rotten iron cables to make harsh crackling sounds.
I rushed forward with all my strength, until my feet landed firmly on the flat ground, I felt a little relieved.
The moment I stepped off the chain bridge, the chain bridge completely broke, and with the pieces of flames, it suddenly collapsed into the abyss of the moat.
The insignificant firelight was quickly swallowed up by the abyss. The only thing that could be seen in the darkness was the pair of blood-red eyes, still staring at us coldly...
Perhaps only Fatty Wu and Chen Qiuyu saw the situation that just occurred. Both of them were looking at me in surprise.
But others, namely Xue Tianhu and his other two minions, put all the credit on the old man's head. After a while of boasting, the old man looked proud and seemed to have forgotten himself. What's your last name?
"Lao Huo's methods are really amazing. After I find the wealth of a thousand generations, your share will be indispensable!" Xue Tianhu promised.
"Hehehe... then I'll thank Mr. Hu first!" The old man, whom Xue Tianhu called Mr. Huo, responded with a sly smile.
At this time, Xue Tianhu seemed to have just remembered me. He turned his head and looked at me, and then said, "Nanfeng, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" I replied.
Seeing that I didn't even have a scratch on my skin, Xue Tianhu stopped paying attention to me, greeted a few minions, and continued walking forward.
"Xie Dongzi, is your knife poisonous?"
Chen Qiuyu came to my side, looked at the sharp knife in my hand that was dripping with ink-black liquid, and asked softly.
When she asked me this question, I lowered my head and looked at the sharp knife in my hand, feeling confused and confused.
Yes, the sharp knife in my hand is poisonous. Even after the vine was chopped, the main body of the strange creature was instantly paralyzed.
But it's obviously been so long, why haven't I felt that numb feeling yet?
Just when I was puzzled, I felt that the hand holding the sharp knife felt sticky.
I hurriedly raised my hand to look, only to find that there was a layer of sweat on my hand.
But the sweat beads were not colorless, but had a faint golden color, and what puzzled me was that there was an indescribable strange fragrance.
Immediately afterwards, something even more incredible happened. The sweat on my hand dripped down onto the sharp knife. The ink-black blood stains where the sweat rolled down actually changed in an instant. The change turned into the original bright red again.
At this moment, I knew exactly what was going on. The poison could no longer invade my body. It was obviously the result of that big fat golden bug.
And the strange fragrance coming from the sweat beads is also so familiar.
This suddenly reminded me of that old lady. At that time, I was very skeptical of her actions and thought she might be a lunatic. But now, it seems obvious that she was helping me.
But how did she know that I would be poisoned in Changsha City? Maybe the old lady still had the ability to prepare for rainy days.
I don't know who that old lady is, but one thing is for sure. She helped me and saved my life. If I can meet her again, I will definitely be doubly grateful to her.
I was thinking about the old lady. At this time, Chen Qiuyu came to my ear and whispered: "This scent is very special, is it golden silkworm Gu?"
