Shi Chi Shang was enjoying watching the fun when Zhong Wudi suddenly whispered: "Something's wrong!"
"What?" Shi Chishang turned around and saw Zhong Wudi covering his left wrist, as if sensing something, and said in a deep voice: "There is something else in this hole."
Yu Fuji was standing next to them. He was stunned when he heard this, looked around, and asked in surprise: "What is there?"
Cao Hong reached out and grabbed the void, sensed it carefully for a moment, and said in confusion: "There is no ghost energy. Although this is a burial pit, no ghosts were born."
"It's not a ghost, it's a living thing!" Zhong Wudi's expression suddenly changed, and he punched the ground in front of him with a loud bang, exploding a large area of broken bones and startling everyone who was arguing.
"What are you doing?" Song Ding asked angrily when he saw that he was actually bombarding the ground like Guo Xiangshan.
"Shut up!" Shi Chishang shouted sharply, with a rare expression of solemnity on the ground, and his sharp eyes stared at the dust and smoke rising after the explosion on the ground.
When Song Ding was scolded by him, he turned into anger from shame. Just as he was about to sacrifice the magic weapon, Dao Yiyi also exclaimed: "Look inside the smoke!"
As everyone quieted down, a faint sound of flapping wings quietly came out from the smoke, and the sound became louder and louder. In addition to the smoke raised by Zhong Wudi where his fist fell, this sound was gradually heard from all around the burial pit. kind of sound.
"Insects! It's a swarm of insects!"
The big Uyghur man suddenly shouted in surprise, clasping his hands, billowing sand and dust suddenly filled the air around him, and shouted: "Everyone, be careful, it's a swarm of death insects!"
No one knew what a swarm of death insects was, but before anyone could ask, the ground suddenly exploded one after another, and a giant insect with strips like a centipede rushed out of it. It had stinging hairs on its body, hook-like tentacles, red eyes, and a mouth with sharp teeth. The two tentacles on the head trembled slightly, emitting a fishy smell that made people want to vomit.
"Poisonous!" Zhong Wudi looked stern and threw an antidote to each of Shi Chishang and Cao Hong.
Shi Chishang took the antidote and used the Evil Heart Sword to kill a death insect that was rushing towards the left. With a clang, the extremely sharp Evil Heart Sword failed to kill the giant insect. The tentacles look soft, but are actually as sharp as a sword. Even with the sharpness of the Evil Heart Sword, it cannot be cut off with one strike.
At this time, hundreds of death insects emerged from the ground, roaring and pounced on everyone.
These poisonous insects were covered with yellow turbid poisonous mist, which was extremely corrosive. Although a Huashan disciple used a magic weapon to block the tentacles, he was submerged by the poisonous mist and turned into a pool of blood in an instant.
Seeing an endless stream of death insects emerging from the ground, Shi Chishang summoned the Spiritual Cangyan to drown several death insects. The pale flames seeped into the bodies of these poisonous insects pervasively. Its characteristics can burn the true spirits of these poisonous insects in a matter of seconds.
However, there were so many of these death bugs that even if Shi Chishang killed a few of them in seconds, it would still be completely unable to stop the opponent's nearly torrent-like offensive.
"Let's go!" Zhong Wudi covered his wrist, as if trying to urge something, but after a few breaths, he finally let go of his wrist with an annoyed expression, condensed green flames, killed an approaching poisonous insect with one claw, and jumped up, Like a hawk, it swooped towards the outside of the burial pit.
Shi Chishang and Cao Hong also used their own methods. One person stretched his wings behind his back, the other stepped on a flying sword, and followed Zhong Wudi to break out.
Not only them, the Long Group, Huashan, Daomen and others all gathered together and rushed towards the outside of the burial pit.
It's just that the attack of these insect swarms was too terrifying. Zhong Wudi tried his best, but he only rushed forward a few meters before being completely blocked by dense death insects.
"Let me come!" Shi Chishang flapped his wings, passed Zhong Wudi and shook his hands to throw out a ball of ghost energy. Accompanied by the endless and furious roar of the horse, the horse sweat blood emerged from the ghost energy as he frantically recited the Three-Character Sutra in his mouth. A folding fan unfolded, and his thoughts instantly enveloped the surrounding insect swarms, dragging these death insects with strong bodies but fragile consciousness into the illusion.
Seeing that Ma Hanxue had temporarily held back the swarms of insects using illusions, Shi Chishang, Cao Hong, and Zhong Wudi jumped over the swarms of insects one after another. Yu Fuji and the young man in white followed closely behind.
Seeing that the five people were about to rush out of the burial pit, a burst of fire suddenly struck through the air in the distance and fell into the insect swarm with a bang. This flame seemed to contain some kind of power to wake up the soul and clear away the soul in an instant. The insect swarm breaks out of the illusion.
Just when they woke up, the densely packed death bugs roared and pounced on the five people again like crazy.
"Song Ding, I fuck your mother!"
Looking at the Song Ding that threw out the fire from a distance, Shi Chishang roared angrily. The sword light swayed, and the Taiyin Sword Strength like running water was entangled into threads, trapping the surrounding insects in place. In the end, he was beaten by several poisonous insects. Injuring his waist and abdomen, the four of them, including Zhong Wudi, successfully broke out of the burial pit and escaped into a tunnel.
After leaving the burial pit, those death insects were still chasing after them. Fortunately, the tunnel was narrow and they could not continue to besiege them as before. Zhong Wudi sprinkled a handful of poisonous powder, Ma Hanxue performed an illusion, and finally Yu Bueryi After killing more than a dozen death bugs with their fists, they finally got rid of the swarm.
Several people ran wildly along the tunnel. Suddenly, Shi Chishang let out a groan and reached out to hold on to the wall, but he stumbled. Fortunately, the young man in white behind him quickly caught him, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground.
Seeing this, Zhong Wudi rushed over and saw yellow blood dripping from the wounds on Shi Chishang's waist and abdomen. He frowned and said, "You're poisoned. Have you taken the antidote I just gave you?"
Shi Chishang had no energy to answer at this time and could only nod reluctantly. Zhong Wudi breathed a sigh of relief, took out a pot and stuffed it into his mouth, took out a clay pot, smashed the sealing mud, and took out a handful of paste. She wiped the medicine on his wound and said in a deep voice: "You will feel better after taking the medicine. It's okay. I'm here and I can restore your strength in an hour."
He didn’t know what the medicinal mud was made of. After applying it on the wound for a while, Shi Chishang felt that his stiff body gradually recovered. The second pill Zhong Wudi gave him turned into a soft and warm feeling. The vitality slowly fills the body.
Seeing the color slowly returning to Shi Chishang's face, Cao Hong breathed a sigh of relief, then bit his silver teeth and said angrily: "This damn Song Ding is so despicable!"
The young man in white held the sword in his arms and smiled without saying a word. Yu Buer touched his bald head and said with a smile: "Boy, is it possible that the pill you gave this little friend is the Pill of Return to Heaven?"
Zhong Wudi ignored him and continued to help Shi Chishang apply medicine. Yu Buer smiled when he saw this, his expression was natural, but there was a bit of coldness in his eyes, but he hid it well and was not distracted by others. Discover.
The others broke out in a different direction from them. It is estimated that unless there is a connection between the tunnels, they will never encounter them in a short time. However, apart from the death insects, there are no other creatures in this ruins.
Because Shi Chishang's injury has not healed, everyone did not dare to rush around, so they simply stayed here and waited for Shi Chishang to recover from his injuries.
It has to be said that the medicine Zhong Wudi brought with him was really very effective. Just as he said, an hour later, the wounds on Shi Chishang's waist and abdomen had completely healed, and he stood up refreshed. He could not see anything for a long time. He looked weak just now.
Stretching his body, Shi Chishang nodded gratefully to Zhong Wudi and said, "I'm sorry, we were delayed for an hour because of me. Let's go!"
"I also want to see what is hidden in the ruins, so I asked the Huashan Sect to come here specially." Cao Hong grinned, his wheat-colored skin making his teeth even more white, "Song Ding dares to sneak attack us, then he can't even think about it. An'an, grab that baby!"
Shi Chishang and Zhong Wudi both smiled and nodded, while the young man in white and Yu Buer continued to act as their invisible men and did not interrupt, following them to continue exploring along the tunnel.
Previously, they were in a hurry to get rid of the death bug, so they didn't pay much attention to the tunnel. But now as they groped forward, they found many murals on the rock walls of the tunnel that were similar to the paintings on the walls of the entrance temple.
As the five of them walked, they observed the murals. Cao Hong frowned and said, "Did you see anything?"
Shi Chishang stopped in front of a mural and muttered: "These murals seem to record their experience of coming here after the ancient Loulan Kingdom fell."
The murals on the wall are divided into more than a dozen pieces. The front mural seems to be telling that after the ancient Loulan Kingdom was destroyed, people died one after another on the way the Loulan people fled. The living did not care about the dead and fled here. They first built a building on the ground. That temple, and then excavating the ground, built the ruins.
"There is a statue of a god on every mural," the young man in white glanced at the murals and said solemnly, "This should be the god worshiped by the Loulan people. Don't you think it is similar to the statue in the temple before?"
Shi Chishang nodded and suddenly said: "I think we are looking in the wrong direction."
"What do you mean?" Zhong Wudi asked suspiciously.
"You think, it was Guo Xiangshan who wanted to destroy the ground, so he inspired the statues and threw us into the underground ruins. But if we were the ones to build the ruins, would our descendants also be thrown into that ruin if they wanted to enter the ruins? In the burial pit?"
Yu Fuji shook his head: "Of course it's impossible. That place is so dangerous. I may not be able to escape unscathed."
The young man in white suddenly said: "So Brother Shi, what you are saying is that because we want to destroy the ruins, we will be buried in shame. If the descendants of the Loulan people come here, they should have a safe passage?"
"Yes, I think the key to entering the ruins lies in the statue," Shi Chishang sighed, "But at that time we all thought the entrance would be somewhere else, but no one paid attention to the statue."
Zhong Wudi suddenly said: "I think it's not that we didn't pay attention, but that we subconsciously ignored the statue."
Seeing everyone watching, he said solemnly: "There are so many of us, and it is impossible that none of us would not have thought that the key point is the statue of God, so it is very likely that the statue of God has some kind of power that can affect our consciousness."
"Can you even influence me?" Yu Buer asked in surprise.
"It may not be impossible," Shi Chishang sighed softly, "Although the ancient Loulan country is more than a thousand years ago, who knows what level their country was at that time. After all, it is a country, and there may be twelfth-level powerful ones. There is such a thing as a tenth-level warrior like you, and it may not be impossible."
