There was another explosion, and the sound waves swept over, and there were many noisy noises, covering up Zhang Zhuxun's voice. In the end, it even completely turned into the harsh high-pitched sound coming from the broken microphone and speaker. Decibel screams. crop
Jie Yuchen frowned, paused for a few seconds, and then opened it again. There was still the ear-painful sound, but the recording Zhang Zhuxun didn't seem to notice anything strange at all.
A few minutes passed quickly, and everyone was confused. What did this say?
Xie Yuchen thought for two seconds and clicked on the last one.
This time the picture was taken against Zhang Shuxun's face, and the background behind him was the mortuary stone hall where they were currently staying.
Zhang Zhuxun stood in front of a wooden frame bed numbered "279", holding up his mobile phone with one hand, and said solemnly: "I don't have much time, Xie Yuchen, Pan Zi, after you take the old lady's body out, She must be cremated as soon as possible, and no one can see her during the cremation."
"Next, I have to go find Wu Xie and the others. I also left a small bottle of my blood in that bag. You can apply it on yourselves to prevent the species that coexists with Milotuo in the jade veins."
"In four hours, the entire jade vein in the mountain will change. You must walk out on a new road within four hours. The original road is no longer possible. The new map is inside the small bag. , you can see it by turning it over."
"Take Huo Xiangu's body and get out of here, otherwise you will be trapped here forever when the time comes."
"I have already cleared the Milotuo on the way out. Hurry up before they set their sights on you."
"...One last piece of advice, don't try to enter the Zhang Family Ancient Building, otherwise, no matter where you hide, you will be found by it."
"Unless the world evaporates...the sky changes...that's it."
The sizzling electromagnetic sound was mixed with his words, and the recording became blurry. The last word came to an end, and it was completely over before everyone could recover.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment. Jie Yuchen mentally judged the authenticity of Zhang Zhuoxun's words. The clues were confusing. Who were "them" that Zhang Zhuoxun was avoiding?
That high-level black shadow Milotuo? Or something other than Milotuo. crop
Swallowing evolution? Could it be that before the explosion, the number of Milotuo in the mountain suddenly decreased, because it was eaten by the black shadow?
Zhang Shuxun also revealed what scares him the most, consciousness control.
From what he meant, this consciousness control seemed to be undetectable and impossible to prevent.
So when recording these, how to determine whether Zhang Chuxun has been controlled.
The first "it" and the last "it" in Zhang Zhuo's words can be seen from the subtle changes in his eyes. It is possible that the two "it" do not refer to the same concept.
The sudden electromagnetic sound seemed to be deliberately stopping Zhang Shuxun's words. In other words, Zhang Shuxun did not notice anything abnormal when recording, but when they checked, they had a strange consciousness that they did not want Zhang Shuxun to speak. Reveal something so they can't hear clearly.
"Boss..." Jie Sanzang was a little scared. He kept turning his head around suspiciously, and then asked, "Are we going to continue going down?" Jia...
Before Jie Yuchen could speak, Pan Zi on the side had already begun to organize his equipment.
Jie Yuchen frowned and looked at him, "Aren't you going to go out with us?"
Pan Zi nodded and said firmly: "I have to go find Mr. Third Master and the others. I can only rest assured if I am sure that he has gone out safely."
"Zhang Shuxun has already gone to find them." Jie Yuchen disagreed, "You also heard the message he left for us. There is only four hours to evacuate. You can't guarantee that you will be able to find the third master and stay there. You will die here."
Pan Zi smiled freely, and the wrinkles on his face made his smile look a little bitter, "I was given this life by Third Master. Wherever Third Master is, I will be there."
He stood up and suddenly thought of something. There was a touch of tenderness in his eyes, which suddenly turned into
Sadly, his smile faded a bit.
He took out a handkerchief embroidered with a sika deer from the inner pocket of his chest, opened it and looked at a pair of pearl earrings wrapped inside, as if to imprint the appearance of the earrings deeply in his mind. crop
After a while, he wrapped the earrings in a handkerchief again, handed them to Xie Yuchen, and whispered softly, "Master Hua'er, please help me keep this safe. If I am lucky enough to get out alive, I will ask you to get it back. If this happens It’s destined to be a disaster, and I have to trouble you to return it to someone for me, just say... that I, a big boss, am not worthy of her, and let her live a good life in the future."
Jie Yuchen was silent for a moment, then took it and slowly said, "What's her name?"
"Jiang Lu." Pan Zi smiled, with a trace of reluctance on his face, "Her name is Jiang Lu, and she is a doctor."
Jie Yuchen put away his handkerchief, nodded, and patted Pan Zi hard on the shoulder, "Take care!"
Seeing this, several Wu family guys brought by Pan Zi also packed up their equipment and stood next to Pan Zi, "Master Pan, the brothers will go with you."
"Stop fooling around." Pan Zi scolded lightly, "Can you and me be the same? You really don't take your own life seriously. You followed me and gave up your life. You didn't leave a son or a half of your daughter behind, so your family What should I do, boss? Be obedient and follow Mr. Xie out."
Several guys looked at each other in confusion, and finally looked at Pan Zi's face and agreed, "Master Pan, please pay attention to your safety. We will wait for you and Third Master to come back outside." Jia.
"Go." Pan Zi patted their shoulders calmly and put on his backpack.
Jie Yuchen made a copy of the map inside the small bag and gave it to him. Together with the old map, he also gave him half of the detonators he brought with him.
People on both sides separated from each other and set off separately.
Pan Zi walked along the corridor behind the stone hall. Jie Yuchen asked people to take Huo Xiangu's body, led them out of the stone hall, returned to the jade vein pit carved with Pixiu, and climbed up the cliff along the rope.
The jade veins above have changed, and two new passages have appeared on the side.
Jie Yuchen checked the route and quickly led the people into the Jade Vein.
At their current position, the closest distance is Qilin's neck. In other words, their final route out will overlap with the fault-tolerant route Zhang Zhuxun and the others took after entering the closed door twice before, but they will not have to pass through the bell array. Crops….
This is the route that Zhang Zhuxun worked out after studying tattoos for a long time.
In fact, Zhang Zhuxun originally planned to bomb all the way from the neck to the shoulders, from the waist through the center, to the part near the right forelimb, and then around the neck to join Xie Yuchen and the others. By then Wu Xie and the others would also Can reach the ancient building.
But while walking among the mountains, he discovered the strangeness of Milotuo's actions in the jade veins that were close to the heart of Qilin.
Some Milotuo were expelling the lowest-level Miluotuo and driving them closer to the heart, so Zhang Zhuoxun felt like he was being deliberately surrounded and suppressed by Milotuo.
By accident, Zhang Zhu reached the heart of Qilin, where he saw his most terrifying nightmare.
King Milotuo - that is a guy with a very strange and strange shape. Its shape is uncertain, like a flowing liquid. It can solidify itself in one state at any time, and in the next second it looks like a long tape. Spread out and blend into the surrounding jade veins.
It was a very huge black shadow. A wall of Jade Veins could not even accommodate its shadow. Its arms and legs were very long, even more than twice as long as the central part of the body. It was like many strips. The snakes as thick as a bucket are intertwined together to form a human figure, which is also like a dancing girl wearing neon sleeves in a picture of a lady. crop
When Zhang Zhuoxun saw it, it was eating.
Through the deep wall of jade veins, Zhang Zhuoxun could clearly see that its arms and legs stretched out, like an awl piercing a sponge, moving smoothly through the jade veins to swallow more low-level Milotuo inside. .
It eats Milotuo and also eats humans.
The way this special Milotuo hunts is to use a sound that cannot be picked up by the human ear to control animals that are inferior to him.
The high-level Milotuo and the sub-level Milotuo are responsible for driving the low-level Milotuo into a certain range.
There are also a lot of sub-level Milotuos, scattered throughout the Jade Veins.
Zhang Zhuxun couldn't tell whether there was a black-haired snake hidden in the body of King Milotuo, even though its appearance looked like a giant kelp ball that had become moldy and hairy.
Or maybe Milotuo, which was raised under the control of the Zhang family, has lost control after years of evolutionary changes. In the constant devouring and evolution, it has acquired a certain degree of intelligence, just like the food chain proposed by Elton. Milotuo among the mountains has formed its own ecosystem. crop
Based on the current situation, there are three types of Milotuos in the Jade Veins. One is the Miluotuos with black-haired snakes in their bodies, which are raised by the Zhang family. This type of Miluotuo is widely scattered and can travel between To the very edge of the mountain.
The second type of Milotuo is larger. They are not as numerous as the first type, but they move extremely quickly. They do not move by temperature, but by sound, just like Wu Xiaoxie and Fatty's quicksand trap under the moonstone mirror. The gatekeeper Milotuo I saw here relies on hearing to catch prey.
They in the jade veins are also controlled by King Milotuo with a unique sound that cannot be detected by human ears.
The third type is King Milotuo, the ultimate mutant species, the highest level, and the absolute ruler of the Jade Vein. ….
At the same time, he also discovered that the kelp worms hidden inside the human-faced turtle that he had seen before were actually a type of creature that coexisted with Milotuo in the Jade Vein. They were the key to Miluotuo's eating.
Just like the symbiosis between a human-faced bird and a monkey in the mouth, the monkey in the mouth eats, while the bird with a human face relies on the excrement of the monkey in the mouth to survive.
In the same way, the mucus excreted by the soft-bodied creatures in the interlayer after eating can not only help Milotuo shuttle through the jade veins, but also allow Miluotuo to survive. crop
He remembered that the Classic of Mountains and Seas recorded a green insect with a human face called a corpse-eating salamander, which was born with corpse poison. Although it was an insect, it actually looked more like a soft-bodied snake with long legs. Wherever there were large corpses, it would There are such corpse-eating salamanders.
The green molluscs he had seen had similar characteristics to corpse-eating salamanders. They were also scavengers of corpses. After drying, they would turn into sheep dung balls with human faces, perhaps the side they crawl on the ground. It had a human face, so he temporarily called the soft-bodied creature a corpse-eating salamander.
Corpse-eating salamanders survive in corpse poison and are not afraid of strong alkalis, but they are afraid of unicorn blood, which is designed to combat evil spirits related to corpses. Moreover, due to their slow movement, their hunting ability is almost zero, so they need to be afraid of strong alkalis and ignore them. The shell is made of Kirin-blooded Milotuo, and the prey is trapped in one place by melting the jade veins of Milotuo itself.
It is estimated that based on this characteristic of the corpse-eating salamander, the Zhang family boldly made some of them to clean up the excess corpses in the ancient building.
After realizing that the mountain had "come alive", Zhang Zhuxun immediately retreated away from King Miluotuo, intending to find a new route for Jie Yuchen and others in Qilin Tu, so that they could evacuate here immediately.
In the process of clearing the route, he discovered the stone temple. After leaving clues inside, he returned to the heart of Qilin and wandered around the edge of the activities of King Milotuo. He used heat to attract many Milotuos to facilitate its preying. Take action to temporarily contain it in that area.
But he said that after Pan Zi and Xie Yuchen and others parted ways, they walked forward along the corridor. crop
After walking two to three hundred meters, the original corridor turned into a crack in the mountain. The slope of the crack was downward and gentle. There were traces on the rocks that had been washed by water for a long time. It seemed that this was a natural waterway.
The surface of the stone is very dry, and it looks like no water has passed through it for at least a hundred years.
There are also some traces of human repair in the rock crevice water channel, and there are residues of rotten wood that has been soaked in water.
Pan Zi thought about it and felt that it was probably because the Zhang family used this waterway to transport the corpses parked in the stone hall to the ancient building. Therefore, there is an 80% possibility that the end of this road leads directly to the ancient building. .
Pan Zi looked at the two maps given by Xie Yuchen. The new map only marked the evacuation route of Xie Yuchen and the others, which had no reference value.
He re-opened the old map and found that the water channel had turned into a jade vein again, which meant that he would have to fight this tough battle alone.
﹉﹉﹉﹉﹉Jia
Back in time.
After leaving Huo Xiangu's body behind, Zhang Zhuxun returned to the previous place. After two hours of continuous travel and delay, he planted the last wave of bombs.
Guessing that Jie Yuchen and the others were about to leave, he followed the jade veins towards Qilin's neck, using the original method of using the heat generated by the explosion to lure Miluotuo away from the gap.
Not only is it attracting those low-level Milatoos, but also because where a large number of Milatoos gather, the King Milota who only wants to eat is likely to come looking for him.
This will minimize the chances of Xie Yuchen, Wu Xiaoxie and the others encountering danger.
