Chapter 449 The Truth (1)

Standing at the tuyere, the flame of the telescopic tube was blown by the wind and swayed non-stop. The figure cast was distorted and deformed with the jump of the flame, and the tuyere appeared in front of my eyes. It was a big surprise, because the tuyere was actually opened below of.

At my feet, there is a hole with a diameter of about two meters. It is dark and I don’t know how deep it is. The erratic flames make it difficult for the light to shine. When it came, it was still vaguely damp.

Why is the vent down?There are obvious traces of artificial polishing on the edge of the hole. It is obvious that this vent is artificially made.

I squatted down, took out the flashlight and turned it on, shining the light into the air vent.

The light of the flashlight is stable, so I can see the scene below clearly in an instant, but I was shocked when I saw it. I saw that the bottom of the air vent was white and steaming, as if there was heat below. The water seems to be steaming.

I suddenly thought of the hot spring I soaked in under the cliff before. When I saw the depth of this black hole, I couldn't help thinking: Could it be that there is a geothermal spring underneath?When I was soaking in the hot spring with Machete before, I was still wondering how the hot spring was drawn out. Now combined with the cement-like substance in the cave, I have some doubts. Could the hot spring cave be covered by this substance? isolated.

If there is a geothermal spring below here, and there is a dark wind coming up, then it should be very close to the place where I soaked in the hot spring last night. Maybe I can break the stone wall with a few more blows like the Taoist priest before.

But if I want to go down, I have to get at least a rope. Now the air vent is empty, and there are no traces of ropes and nails around it. Therefore, I reckon that the machete should not have been here, otherwise, he should also go under the air vent for a while. Explore.

How is he doing now?

I hope that kid is safe and sound, Yu Shi is not easy to deal with, if he hadn't lured Yu Shi away, I would have no chance to escape, if something happened to the machete and died here, I'm afraid my conscience will be disturbed for the rest of my life.

While thinking about it, I went to the equipment bag to feel for the rope and ground nails, and squatted on the edge of the air vent. As soon as I opened the equipment bag, a bad premonition arose in my heart. To be precise, it was produced by human instinct Although I didn’t look behind me, at this moment, I knew there must be something behind me, so the moment I pulled out the ground nail, I used it as a dagger, and turned around sharply while holding the ground nail.

Sure enough, at some point behind me, a person appeared silently, almost less than half a meter away from me!
This person is none other than the Taoist priest whose legs were injured by me. He was like a ghost, and approached me silently for the second time, making people defenseless.My vigilance is already very high. When I was observing the air outlet just now, just in case, I would look back from time to time.

But even so, I was only slightly distracted, and this person actually stuck behind me!

Is he a ghost?

Why is there no sound at all?If I hadn't encountered too many dangers in the past year, and my perception of danger had become more acute, I guess he stabbed me from behind, and I wouldn't have noticed it.

this is too scary.

The moment I saw the Taoist priest clearly, I thrust the nail into his throat without hesitation. I can't blame me for having murderous intentions at the moment, but this man is so fucking weird, he looks like a living person, but this ghost-like There is no trace of what a living person should do in his actions.

The Taoist priest's legs were obviously injured, and I don't know why he ran behind me so quickly. Not only that, he also imitated my appearance and squatted, so I hit his neck with the ground nail very smoothly.

He was too close to me, and there was no way to dodge it. The sharp-edged nails went straight into his neck, and the scarlet blood splashed out with a puff and sprayed on my face.

I didn't smell the fishy smell, his blood was not fishy, ​​but had a strange medicinal smell.

I immediately remembered that this medicinal fragrance was also smelled on Yushi's body!

That's right, when the door furnace under the alchemy furnace was opened, it was this smell that came out from inside the alchemy furnace.

What is his relationship with that feather corpse?
Is he alive or something?
The psychological pressure of killing is still great, so I can only hypnotize myself: This is not a human, this is a monster, with copper skin and iron bones, shaped like a ghost, but not human.People are always good at finding reasons for themselves when they do something that violates morality. After I found a lot of reasons for myself, the psychological pressure of killing people is basically gone.

After the ground nail was inserted, I immediately pushed the Taoist priest, and he fell backwards.At this moment, I discovered two abnormal phenomena in this Taoist priest.

First: His bloodshot eyes are not as serious as before, but he can see black pupils, which makes people feel much clearer.

Second: His thigh still has blood from the previous wound, but there is no hole!
Because the clothes on the Taoist priest are very old, I can clearly see that the parts of his thighs that were pierced have become extremely white now, forming a stark contrast with the dirty skin on other parts of his body, as if just now Like the new muscle that grows out, there is no bullet sore.

Could it be... His injury has healed?
Depend on!
Is he Undead Xiaoqiang?As if to confirm my guess, before I could wipe the blood from his face, the Taoist priest who was pushed down by me sat up straight like a corpse. Like 'shit', pushed out.

Forgive my lack of ability to describe, because when I saw the inserted ground nail being slowly squeezed out, this was the first reaction in my mind.

"Ding..." The ground spike was discharged very quickly, and within two or three seconds, it fell to the ground. With the discharge of the ground spike, the bloodshot eyes of the Taoist priest seemed to be normal again.

When I was flipping through the equipment bag just now, I inserted the gun back into my waist. Now facing such a strange situation, I subconsciously touched the gun. However, at this moment, I found that I was empty.

Where's the gun?

I looked down and found that my waist was empty. On the contrary, the Taoist priest sitting on the ground followed my example and touched his waist.

And it was only then that I realized that the gun that I had disappeared had been inserted into this Taoist priest at some point!

Teleportation?

The idea crossed my mind, but was quickly dismissed.

This is impossible.

Could it be that when I was squatting on the ground looking for nails, this Taoist hid behind me and stole my gun?Maybe he was crouching behind me before I realized the danger?

Damn, is this thing a human or a ghost? What on earth does he want to do?
