Mystery Leaks

Chapter 259

Time passed by, and soon it was past ten o'clock; the moon gradually moved to the middle of the sky, making the pool even deeper.

"Why hasn't there been any movement?" Cao Nan glanced at the phone and whispered.

"No hurry, let's wait patiently, wrap it up a little more, it will freeze when you don't touch it." Huang Mao said.

When we came, we had already expected that we might wait in the snow for a long time, so we prepared thick clothes and waterproof oil paper, and laid them on it to keep out the cold.

It's just that the cold and damp in the south makes it ineffective to wear more clothes. The cold air is like water droplets on people, making them shrink into a ball.

Not long after, it was twelve o'clock, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and midnight was approaching. The Yin Qi gradually reached its climax, but there was still no movement below, and we were all a little impatient while waiting.

The snow was so cold that even though we took turns lying down and moving our limbs, we still felt that our bodies were about to freeze.

"It's already midnight, and it hasn't started yet." Cao Nan rubbed his hands vigorously, and the cold snot came down.

I glanced at the phone, and at a quarter past twelve, I couldn't help but muttered, "Isn't there a mistake in the information? The other party knew what we were thinking and deliberately did the opposite?"

"Wait a little longer, there should be nothing wrong." Huang Mao said, but his tone was not so sure.

After that, it was one o'clock, and the midnight passed... The moon gradually shifted.Two o'clock, three o'clock... There is still no movement below.We were completely frozen, and even the calmest Feng Daniu couldn't hold it anymore, and said, "The rooster will crow in an hour, and the information may be really wrong."

"I think if I start running, my legs will fall off." Cao Nan trembled while breathing.

I also feel very uncomfortable, I have no feeling in my hands and feet, what will happen later, I really don't know if I can run.

"Come on, let's divide things up." Huang Mao suddenly said to Hu.

After hearing this, Hu Lai had a pained expression on his face, gritted his teeth, took out a small bottle from his pocket, poured out five small light yellow balls, and said, "Eat this, one for each person, including In your mouth, don't swallow."

Huang Mao chuckled, grabbed one and threw it into his mouth, his whole body trembled.

"What is this?" I asked curiously.

"To keep out the cold, the taste is a bit harsh, so don't make a sound." Hu Lai said.

I nodded, picked up one too, and threw it into my mouth.

In an instant, I felt like I was on fire, a strong spicy stimulus mixed with the smell of wine rushed in, burned directly along the tongue into the throat, and then into the stomach, and suddenly the whole person felt dry and hot.

I snorted, almost made a noise, and hurriedly covered my mouth, suffocating.

Fortunately, this thing melted very quickly, and it melted away in only six or seven seconds, but it was just these few seconds that made me feel like I had endured an hour of torture.

My mouth is about to breathe fire, and my head is about to be "cooked". In a few moments, a fine layer of sweat is forced out.I picked up the snow from the ground and stuffed it into my mouth. The cold taste offset it, which made me feel a little more comfortable.

The burning sensation in the mouth and throat was relieved, followed by a rush of heat flowing through the limbs, and the whole body was warm, as if soaked in hot water.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person felt comfortable.

"Damn, what's going on?" Seeing my series of strange reactions, Cao Nan was startled and confused.

"This is made from the things of the big worm. It is specially used to keep out the cold and freeze. The entrance is relatively strong, and it will be fine after it melts. It is inevitable that some extreme situations will be encountered when chasing insects, so we are all used to prepare A few, call it a fire pill." Hu Lai explained.

"Very expensive!" Huang Mao added.

"Fire balls?!" Cao Nan looked at it, took one and threw it into his mouth, and his immediate reaction was similar to mine, and he also gulped snow into his mouth.

This thing is really too strong, too hot, and my tongue feels numb after eating.

Seeing this, Feng Daniu swallowed one too, and his reaction was similar to ours.

But after the discomfort, I felt comfortable, and my cold hands and feet began to thaw, and I regained consciousness.

I have to say that this fire ball is indeed a good thing. Huang Mao said it was very expensive, and seeing Hu Lai's pained face, it must be true.Big worms are full of treasures, and if they can be made from things on big worms, the materials themselves are very valuable.

"Okay, cheer up, when we think it's the least likely, accidents are most likely to happen." Huang Mao said, "I'm afraid those ghosts and evil spirits will choose to do it when we are too frozen."

Needless to say, once a dose of "chicken blood" enters the body, it is difficult not to cheer up.

Time passed, and after a while, suddenly a layer of gray mist appeared not far from the pool, it was very light, but if you look carefully, you can see it clearly.

Indistinct in the mist, there is clearly something.

"It's here, it's finally here!" Cao Nan shouted in a low voice, his voice raised several degrees.

"Get down, don't show your head!" Huang Mao said hastily.

We hurriedly stuck to the snow, not daring to move, even suppressing our breathing to the point where it was not necessary.

The scope of the gray fog is getting bigger and thicker, and there are countless ghosts layered on top of each other in the fog, at least hundreds of them, and there are many palpitating existences among them.

"Ow! Howl!"

"Sizzle..."

"Jie Jie Jie..."

"..."

The group of ghosts howled, then split into two strands, roaring and rolling towards the front in two directions.

One is the direction where the tomb robbers are located, and the other is the direction of higher ground; obviously, the ghost group discovered the ambush and began to clear the field.

At this moment, a small voice slowly appeared from among the ghost group. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a ghost boy, and the ghost group was vaguely headed by him.

This thing is not powerful, but its status is very high. It is the ghost king's most trusted servant. Only because of this, it is qualified to control the ghost group.

I was a little nervous, afraid that they would also rush towards us, but they didn't. Obviously, they didn't find us.Because we are small in number and have been hiding all the time, the ash on the bottom of the pot has the effect of covering the yang energy, and the distance is relatively far, [-] steps.

"Dry!"

"Suddenly..."

"Da da da da da!"

"..."

Soon, humans and ghosts started fighting. At this time, we suddenly discovered that there were more people on the higher side, dozens of people, which we hadn't noticed before.

Their firearms were obviously specially made, and the warheads they fired could actually kill the ghosts. As long as a few bullets were hit, the ghosts would immediately turn into a cloud of smoke and dissipate without a trace.

The tomb robbers didn't panic. They used bows and crossbows. Although the speed was much slower, the lethality was astonishing enough.

As long as the crossbow hits the ghost group, it will explode immediately, and the arrows and ghosts will explode into nothingness.

"Damn, rich and powerful!" Huang Mao was extremely surprised, and said, "Yan Tong was used!"

"What is Yantong?" I asked curiously.

"A kind of copper that absorbs the morning glow contains strong yang energy. It appears in the form of ore in the face of the sun, exposed outside the soil layer, and continuously absorbs the yang energy of the morning glow. Over time, it becomes Yan copper. Normally, it would be good to find one or two yuan, and the copper water that can be boiled is only about the size of a little finger, which is only enough for one bullet.

I suddenly realized that I heard Huang Mao mention it once before, saying that Yan copper is a better material than lightning wood, but it is too expensive and priceless.

No wonder Huangmao said that they are rich and powerful, isn't that just rich and powerful? It can be seen from this that they are determined to win, and they don't hesitate to spend money for it.

It is obviously much more urgent than last time. Obviously, the advent of the Age of Mythology has more and more stirred the restless heartstrings of the Quartet.

……

The conflict became intense in an instant.

But there were too many ghosts. After a while, with seven or eight screams in a row, the two troops began to retreat, and the hunted ones threw away their helmets and armor and rolled down the mountain.

We are all scalp numb, fortunately we were not discovered, otherwise we would be even worse, if we slashed with a sword, even if the ghost group stood up and let us slash, we don't know how long it would take.

Seeing this, Ghost Boy smiled coldly and waved his hand.

Then I saw a group of white bones carrying jars popping up suddenly, pouring jars of milky white stuff into the Weak Water Pool.

In an instant, the surface of the water suddenly rolled up, as if it had opened.
