I took a deep breath, and a cold air suddenly filled my lungs. This feeling seemed very familiar to me, but at this moment, my heart felt like I was carrying hundreds of jumping rabbits. The panic was terrible. My mind has long been turned into a ball of mush, and I can't control it at all. I raised my head and examined the demon core in front of me. The demon core was surrounded by dozens of tentacles, large and small, and these tentacles seemed different from the tentacles that attacked us before.
I opened my eyes wide, but the surrounding light was dim and I couldn¡¯t see clearly. I leaned forward, took out the lighter from my jacket pocket, and was about to light it to take a closer look.
There was another rapid impact, and the steel plate behind me was pushed up with a "bang" sound. The steel plate hit my back, shaking my ribs as if they were broken. There was a creaking sound, and I suddenly felt Her chest felt slightly sweet, and she spit out blood with a "wow" sound.
Brother Chun frowned, looked back at me and said, "We can't wait now. You two hold on for a while, and I'll cut off these unsightly tentacles first." After Brother Chun finished speaking, he reached into his boots and took out Bring the dagger.
When I saw Brother Chun about to chop off the tentacles, I immediately shouted: "Brother Chun, wait a minute."
Brother Chun quickly withdrew his hand, looked at me suspiciously and said, "Xiao Le, what do you think is wrong?"
Before Brother Chun could finish speaking, Xiao Liu hurriedly interjected: "The ground is so slippery that I can't use my feet hard at all. We have to hurry up. We can't hold on for long."
I looked at Xiao Liu in surprise, and then looked at the ground. Because of the light, the color of the ground could not be seen clearly, but the feeling of stepping on it was like stepping on lard. My back was pressed against the steel plate to prevent the ghost baby from crashing in. I didn't dare to move an inch, so I had to stretch out my left foot and rub it on the ground. The ground was not only slippery, but also slightly sticky.
I frowned and said to Brother Chun, "Take something off the ground and burn it with a lighter."
Brother Chun squatted down, raised the dagger, and gently whittled it on the ground. Then he took out the lighter from his pocket and lit it with a bang. The yellow flame emitted by the lighter, against the background of the dark red demon core, looked like It looks very weird. Brother Chun slowly moved the lighter closer to the dagger, and when the cut piece touched the flame, it immediately burned, and a pungent corpse smell hit my nose.
Behind the fire, I could clearly see the tentacles moving slowly towards Brother Chun's body.
I immediately shouted: "Brother Chun, there is something on the left, get out of the way."
Brother Chun stared, and before he could understand the meaning, the tentacles had already moved to Brother Chun's arm. Brother Chun's face suddenly twisted, he screamed, kicked his legs on the ground, and jumped out more than half a meter away. He raised his head in fear and stretched out his arms in front of him. The skin on his arms, a palm-sized piece, was already dark, as if the oil had been drained away, and the hideous veins were clearly visible.
Brother Chun said tremblingly: "Xiao Le, what the hell is this."
I finally understood why I felt so familiar when I came in, and then I said: "This is the Jiuyou Coffin-Tangled Vine. When I came in, I felt that the scene in front of me seemed familiar. It was Xiao Liu who reminded me that this thing specializes in absorbing corpses. Oil growth, I saw it with my father when I went to the ancient tomb before. This ghost thing only grows on coffins with extremely strong Yin energy. Legend has it that it is caused by resentment, and there are also rumors that it is the hair of an innocent soul. This thing not only sucks people to death, It also sucks living people, so don¡¯t touch it.¡±
Brother Chun tremblingly stroked the arm that was oily from the Jiuyou Coffin-wrapped Vine, and said after a long silence: "Fortunately, there is no serious harm, otherwise I, Uncle Chun, would have died here. Xiaole, what should I do now? , there are so many in front of me, my dagger is small, and my body will inevitably touch the Jiuyou coffin-wrapped vines. If this continues, I will become a mummy without touching the demon core."
I know in my heart that nothing can go wrong at this moment, otherwise, I am afraid that all the previous efforts will be wasted.
When I was struggling, I suddenly saw Xiao Liu take out an AK47 from his waist, and fired two bursts at the nearest Jiuyou Coffin-Tangled Vine in front of him. At the moment when the gunfire was still echoing, the space flickered and lit up. Two palm-sized fires came. The flames emitted thick smoke with the smell of corpses on the Jiuyou coffin-wrapped vines. The burned parts were instantly scorched black, and the fire was still spreading upwards. After a while, several Jiuyou coffin-wrapped vines were set on fire, emitting billowing smoke.
The coffin vine grows by absorbing corpse oil and is very easy to burn. I took one look at the thick corpse oil on the ground and thought something was wrong. I shouted loudly: "The ground is covered with corpse oil. If the flames fall on the ground, we will all be burned."
Xiao Liu¡¯s hand holding the gun kept trembling, and he looked at me in horror and said: "Then, what should I do? The gun has been fired, so I have to find a way to put out the fire."
I vaguely remember that although the Jiuyou Coffin-Tangled Vine is difficult to control, it is extremely afraid of fire.If we wait for them to burn up and then rush in to destroy the demon core, firstly, the fire can block the ghost babies outside, and secondly, when the Nine Nether Coffin-Tangled Vine burns, it will not be able to absorb human oil. At best, we will only be burned, which is better than It takes a lot of effort here. Although this trick is dangerous, it is still a good way.
Thinking of this, I whispered: "We will rush in together when the fever gets worse. Remember, the speed must be fast, because as soon as we leave the steel plate, those ghost babies will inevitably swarm in. We may only have one minute." time, you must be mentally prepared.¡±
Brother Chun glared at me and said, "Xiao Le, what you said is easy. As soon as you let go of the steel plate, the ghost baby will come in. Even if we destroy the demon core, we will be bitten to death if we go out."
I clenched my fists, hammered the steel plate behind my back, and said, "We are here, and we don't have people to extinguish the fire. We are also being burned to death. Why don't we take a gamble? The ghost baby should be controlled by a monster. We destroyed the demon core, maybe the ghost baby will lose control, and then we still have a glimmer of hope."
With a bang, a burnt Jiuyou coffin-wrapped vine fell to the ground. When it touched the corpse oil on the ground, a wall of fire suddenly rose up.
I immediately shouted: "Rush in now."
The three of us jumped into the air at the same time and jumped into the wall of fire.
With a muffled sound of "bang", the steel plate blocking the entrance was knocked up by the ghost baby and hit my back. I was shocked by the force of the steel plate and felt a sharp pain in my heart. Xiao Liu and Brother Chun hurriedly moved away and pressed on me. Steel plate on the back.
The demon core was three inches in front of me. Brother Chun stretched out his hand, took out the crescent-shaped pendant Sui Daolin gave him from his pocket, and stabbed it hard at the demon core.
The pendant was only an inch away from the demon core and suddenly stopped. Brother Chun turned his head in horror, looked at me and said: "If you can't penetrate it, what should you do?"
I stretched out my hand, and there was an invisible barrier an inch away from the demon core. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't reach through.
"Ah" came Xiao Liu's ear-piercing scream from behind. I looked back. Even though there was a blazing fire around me, I was still cold from head to heel.
Behind the flames, dozens of ghost babies, with their big mouths open and their gleaming canine teeth bared, all looked at us with ferocious smiles.
