When Hua Muling heard this, she stopped suddenly and turned to look at Lao Duoji with a puzzled expression.
Lao Duoji glanced at Hua Muling, and then said to all of us: "If you don't want to lose your life before getting to Sanlagordo, don't touch things randomly."
I looked at the empty leather bucket on the ground, and then at Lao Duoji. I was about to say something, but suddenly, Xiong Ming beside me suddenly yelled.
"What the fuck is this?"
Xiong Ming's voice was so loud that I was startled and looked towards him hurriedly.
But I saw several scorpions as long as index fingers emerged from the cracks in the ground, and one of them was planning to crawl on Xiong Ming.
This scorpion looks very strange. Its entire body is black. The first half looks like a common scorpion, while the back half looks more like a mosquito's tail stinger, and its length is about the size of an index finger.
This kind of scorpion crawled very fast, and soon it climbed onto Xiong Ming's trouser legs.
Xiong Ming stretched out his hand to knock the scorpion off his leg, and then stepped on the scorpion that was struggling to turn over on the ground with a "snap" sound, and crushed it into pieces.
Xiong Ming rubbed his feet on a clean spot on the ground and said, "What the hell is this? Scorpions are not scorpions, and mosquitoes are not mosquitoes!"
"This thing is really strange. It's the first time I've seen it." After trampling two to death, I found a wooden stick and squatted down to pull at the remains of the scorpion.
But at this moment, not far behind me, the originally empty fox skin bucket suddenly moved.
It looked like someone had pushed the bucket underneath.
This sudden change took all of us by surprise.
Lao Duoji even shouted: "No! They were alarmed."
I looked at Old Dorje and asked, "They? Who are they?"
Old Dorje said: "There is no time to explain this, run quickly!"
Hua Muling said, "But it's windy outside right now. Where are we going?"
Old Dorje said: "If you can't do it outside, just run inside!"
After saying that, Lao Duoji grabbed the backpack and the long baggage on the ground, turned around and ran towards the ancient temple.
After running a few steps, Lao Duoji turned to the few of us who were stunned and said, "If you don't want to die, hurry up and follow."
Before Lao Duoji finished speaking, the leather bucket originally placed in the southeast corner was suddenly overturned, and then, a small earth bag suddenly bulged on the originally flat ground.
The little earth bag grew bigger little by little, and soon dozens of strange scorpions of various sizes emerged from it with a "pop" sound.
But this was just the beginning. After a few seconds, the little dirt bag was like a volcano erupting. Countless strange-looking scorpions came out of the ground and swarmed over us with their fangs and claws.
"I'll go!" Xiong Ming jumped up and shouted, "Is this a fucking scorpion nest?"
Those weird scorpions were extremely fast, and soon some of them were in front of Hua Muling. I pulled Hua Muling over, stretched out my feet and trampled the fastest ones to death, turned around and shouted to Xiong Ming and Li Xiaohong : "Run quickly!"
While talking, a few of us threw our legs aside and ran towards the depths of the ancient temple.
Old Dorje seemed to be very familiar with this place. Under his leadership, a few of us ran forward. Although the road was not too wide, it was enough for the few of us to pass by.
However, we ran fast, and those weird scorpions were not slow either. In a short time, they had already caught up with us.
The bursts of "hee hee soo soo" sounds behind him can't help but make people feel their scalp numb.
Xiong Ming, who was running at the end, kept shouting: "Hu Tian, you girl, think of a solution quickly. If this continues, you, Grandpa Xiong, and I will be used as a midnight snack by these guys."
I ran as fast as I could and yelled, "What the hell can I do?"
But before I finished speaking, there was a fork in the road ahead. Lao Duoji suddenly stopped. He was very familiar with this place and couldn't help but have a look of doubt on his face.
As soon as Lao Duoji stopped like this, several of us had no time to brake and almost hit a man.
Xiong Ming, who was at the end, fell directly to the ground.
The swarm of scorpions behind him suddenly sped up upon seeing this, and a dozen smaller, weird scorpions climbed onto Xiong Ming's legs in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, I hurriedly pulled Xiong Ming up and used my hands and feet to clean the scorpions off his body, so that he could not receive the lunch box.
Xiong Ming sang a breath, and before he could speak, he heard Lao Duoji say: "Go this way!"
After saying that, Lao Duoji ran down the branch road on the left.
A few of us knew that Lao Duoji was familiar with this place, so we followed without thinking.
However, what a few of us never expected was that this place turned out to be a dead end.
Xiong Ming looked around with wide eyes and shouted: "Old man, is there something wrong with your girl's head? Why did you lead us to a dead end? Aren't you familiar with this place?"
Lao Duoji looked at Xiong Ming and said: "This place is different from before. Suddenly there is an extra road. I was not sure which one I should take just now."
At this time, the sound of the scorpions' arthropods not far away rubbing against the wall and floor became louder and louder, and each of us couldn't help but take a step back.
Even the big black dog Erlang, who was always fierce, couldn't help but tuck his tail. It seemed that he also knew how powerful these scorpions were.
Hua Muling swallowed, looked at me and asked, "Hu Tian, what should we do now?"
I looked at Hua Muling, smiled bitterly, and then said: "Delay it for a while if you can... If it doesn't work, I will go to the Lord of Hell to get a good place for you first."
While we were talking, the scorpion group was only five or six meters away from us.
But the strange thing is that at this time, they did not swarm up like before, but were approaching us little by little.
Li Xiaohong suddenly asked: "What are they doing?"
Xiong Ming said: "Are they planning to queue up for meals like in the canteen?"
Li Xiaohong said: "Have you ever seen a scorpion party dining?"
Xiong Ming said: "Otherwise, what are they planning to do?"
Hua Muling said: "What do they seem to be waiting for?"
Xiong Ming asked: "What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the leader to issue meal tickets?"
As soon as Xiong Ming finished speaking, a black shadow flashed suddenly where we came from. Not long after, a huge black-brown scorpion, as big as Erlang, slowly crawled over from the top of the aisle.
Seeing this guy suddenly appear, the big black dog Erlang on the ground began to become very restless. His body was bowed very low, his two front paws kept scratching the ground, and he let out low growls of "Woo" from time to time.
Upon seeing this, Lao Duoji slowly squatted down. Perhaps he was afraid that Erlang would act rashly, so he hugged it and whispered a few words in its ear. The big black dog Erlang did not rush up to fight with the big black dog. Scorpion tried his best, but he still kept letting out a horrifying growl.
Looking at the large scorpion, it seemed that he ignored the warning of the big black dog Erlang and continued to approach step by step.
Facing that guy's pressure, the only choice for the few of us was to retreat.
But there was still a road behind us, and it didn't take long before we were close to the wall.
And just when all of us thought we were going to be buried in the sea of scorpions, suddenly, Lao Duoji suddenly tore off the outer skin of the long baggage in his hand, and then, a black iron ruler appeared in front of us. In front of people's eyes.
After showing the iron ruler, Lao Duoji suddenly thrust the half-man-high iron ruler into the ground.
It is strange to say that after seeing the black iron ruler, the scorpions did not move forward for half a minute, but suddenly became restless, especially the extra-large scorpion, which raised its upper body and spoke loudly. There is a "clucking" sound from time to time.
Xiong Ming looked sideways at the black iron ruler in Lao Duoji's hand and said, "Old man, why didn't you take out this thing earlier? What should we do now? Are you planning to kill these insects?"
