The big hole created by the burning may be a way to escape, but it can also be regarded as a dead end, because all the corpse wax is tilting in the hole, and it won't take long for the bottom of the hole to be completely destroyed. of lit.
Fortunately, the burning point of corpse wax is very low, so it is only the falling wax corpses that are rapidly exploding. But this is only the moment, and it is only a matter of time before the corpse wax is ignited.
I don't want to delay another second, I want to race against the death of time. However, when I rushed to the increasingly huge collapsed cave entrance, I actually saw the black shadow rushing over as well. Apparently it also wanted to escape through the cave entrance.
Lou Yuluan has already gone down into the cave. If this strange black shadow escapes in, Lou Yuluan may be in danger. I will never let such a thing happen.
As early as the moment the wax corpse burned, I had already seen the weakness of this strange black shadow. In my opinion, it was not just a slight fear of fire, but the fire was a fatal threat to it.
The black air on its body is obviously a flammable gas, and the remaining cinnabar powder on its body is also extremely flammable. At this time, half of the black shadow's body was ignited with traces of flames. If it were to escape, If you go into the cave, everything will be over.
"Ahem... I want to escape... there is no way...!" I stepped directly into the black shadow and blocked the path of the black shadow, placing my dragon-detecting claw in front of me.
I clearly know that the black shadow's body is uncertain, but I still want to stop it, because I really have no better way to deal with it, I can only take a chance on it.
Behind me is the big hole. Although the black shadow is faster than me, it is still at least five or six meters away from me because it has to avoid the burning wax corpses along the way.
Uh-huh...! The black shadow no longer smiled strangely, but let out a heart-rending wail. I don't know if it was its wailing that reverberated in the empty space, causing a vibration, or because of the burning of the flames, which made the top of the stone carved with stone hooks suddenly begin to fall, and a huge boulder as big as a truck crashed. It fell down, and it went straight to where I was and crushed it down.
I instinctively raised my claws to resist, but at this critical moment, the big hole behind me collapsed again, affecting the position where I was standing. As the bluestone floor beneath my feet collapsed and shattered, I His body went straight down and fell.
And just as I fell, the huge boulder fell with a crash, blocking the huge hole tightly. Not only was the black shadow unable to escape, but even the slightest source of fire was completely cut off. .
thump……! A few seconds later, I fell into a pool of viscous corpse wax. Because of the previous flames, the cooled corpse wax warmed up and melted into corpse oil.
I struggled desperately in the corpse oil. Although I touched the edge of the pool, it was too slippery because of the corpse oil and I had nowhere to start.
The fire didn't burn me to death, the boulder didn't fake my death, but I was going to drown in this pool of corpse oil. I was really unwilling to do so.
I don't know how thick the walls of this corpse oil pool are, but now I can only rely on the dragon's claws to find a way out.
I took a deep breath of the foul-smelling gas, gathered my strength and swung out the Dragon Detection Claw. However, just when I swung out the Dragon Detection Claw, an equally greasy hand reached out from the edge of the Corpse Killing Oil Pool.
"Xie Dongzi, hold my hand!" It was Lou Yuluan's voice. At that moment, I gave up my own way of escape and grabbed Lou Yuluan's life-saving straw.
The corpse oil pool was really slippery, and even with Lou Yuluan coming to rescue me, it took a lot of effort for me to climb out.
After crawling out of the corpse oil pool, I turned over and fell to the ground. The joy of surviving the disaster made me laugh regardless of the occasion and the time.
"Lou Yuluan, thank you, you saved my life again."
"You have saved me twice, and I have saved you twice. From now on, we are even." Having said that, I know that if Lou Yuluan really doesn't plan to save me, I won't have any temper at all. I always thought that there was no good person in the Lou family. Even Lou Jinjiao and his father, Lou Tianci, were insidious and cunning people. I never thought that Lou Yuluan would be such a grateful and resentful person.
Lou Yuluan, like me, must have crawled out of the corpse oil pool. His whole body was greasy and dirty to the extreme, and it also exuded a strong pungent stench. Unfortunately, there is no water source around, so it can only be temporary. It’s so disgusting for now.
"Let's go, I thought I heard my father's voice just now. It seems that the distance is not too far. Let's go find them quickly." Lou Yuluan stood up and said to me.
"Really! That's great!" As I said that, I was about to stand up from the ground, but with just one hand, I felt a heartbreaking pain on my shoulder, which made me collapse again. On the ground, Lou Yuluan finally reached out and helped me up.
Lou Yuluan looked at my shoulder with a troubled expression and said, "Your shoulder was seriously injured, and now it is corroded by corpse oil. I don't know if it will make your injury more serious. We need to follow up quickly." My father and the others will meet up, and they must have clean water there. Your wound needs clean water and can be cleaned in time."
"Yeah, okay." I agreed, lowering my arms and standing firm. When I followed Lou Yuluan away, I subconsciously looked back at the corpse oil pool that almost killed me, only to find that it was not a so-called pool at all, but a huge bronze tripod. There may be patterns on the surface of the bronze tripod, but they are all covered by the condensed and flowing corpse wax.
I also raised my head and took a look at the height of seven or eight feet. The cave entrance that was pressed by the boulder no longer had the slightest abnormality. The boulder not only blocked the corpse wax and the fire, but also blocked the The crackling sound of burning.
As for what happened to that black shadow now, it's not my concern. Let it be buried with the hundreds of wax corpses.
Above is the place where corpse wax is refined. Fire sources are avoided, so it is so dark, but here is a different scene. The lighting used is not limited to torches, but bronze braziers one after another. , the number is also very large, but wherever the eye can see, everything is mapped so that you can see it at a glance.
Following Lou Yuluan, he got into a circular hole two meters in diameter. After walking through the hole for only more than ten meters, he came to a larger space.
This is an open space the size of a football field. It is an oval space as a whole, with a drop of tens of feet from top to bottom. The location where Lou Yuluan and I are is in the entrance of the wall more than ten feet below.
"Look, they are down there!" Lou Yuluan looked down as he pointed, and sure enough he saw a crowd of heads at the bottom. It was roughly estimated that there were at least forty people.
"Godfather... Godfather... I'm here!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. Since the space was large enough, my shouts echoed back and forth throughout the space, quickly attracting dozens of people below. of attention.
"Dad...!" Lou Yuluan also waved his hand downwards, surprising everyone on both sides.
…………Although Lou Yuluan and I are in a wall cave that is more than ten feet high, it is not difficult to get down because there is a circular staircase of about half a meter outside the wall cave. Although it is steep, But it can lead directly to the bottom. Perhaps it was left behind when the mausoleum was built, or it may be used to transport corpse wax to various places in the mausoleum.
As soon as we met everyone, almost everyone cast the same look at Lou Yuluan and me. At the same time, many people raised their hands to cover their mouths and noses, obviously they couldn't stand the pungent stench on our bodies. .
"Dongzi, how come you have so much corpse wax on your body? What happened? You are looking for your second treasure. Why isn't he with you?" Liu Baye asked, letting I know that Erbao has not met up with Liu Baye. This makes me very worried. I don’t know where Erbao is now and whether he may have encountered something strange and evil like that black shadow. What's up?
