Chapter 232

Chapter 34: Speed ​​of Life and Death, Race Against Time

The most terrifying thing is the army of tiny, densely packed centipedes.

Zhang Qiling's way of dealing with it is similar to Wu Xie's, and they have to wait for it to show its true face.

It's not bad, the main thing is that these big guys were beheaded by the two of them.

They dealt with a few big guys, but it was too late.

Because they had to wait a little longer to confirm the position of the head.

Therefore, those small centipedes took advantage of that little time and were summoned by the sharp cry and woke up.

This was something Wu Xie and the others did not expect, and they could not stop it.

They could only watch the situation develop into the current situation.

Those little guys have already woken up, and there are so many of them that they can't be killed in a short time.

Although they haven't left the wall yet, it is estimated that it will only take a few breaths.

"It's still too late. The awakening of the centipede army is inevitable..."

The big ones are easy to deal with, but the small ones are the most difficult.

They are everywhere, and they can drill into any hole, making it difficult to prevent...

"First, plug your ears with something, and tie your trouser legs and cuffs tightly. There are too many of them, and it's hard to prevent them."

"If you get caught by accident, there will be no hope."

"If you don't have anything to use, come to me for cotton." Wu Xie reminded everyone to take precautions.

After all, this is not a joke. If a centipede gets into your ear, your life will be over.

The ear is connected to the brain. As long as the centipede gets into the ear, it will definitely enter the brain. Then won't it be rampant?

Is there any chance of survival?

After these big guys were completely eliminated by Wu Xie and his team.

The centipede army has completely awakened and fell from the stone walls.

It's so dense that it makes people's scalps numb, and intensive phobia is about to occur.

Countless tiny centipedes kept falling down, and the wall looked like a strange mouth, constantly spitting out...

Everyone felt sick and wanted to vomit...

Wu Xie and his friends were so handsome when they beheaded the centipede just now, but they were shocked by this scene immediately.

In just a few breaths, the ground and the wall were full of dense, tiny centipedes, layered on top of each other.

These centipedes kept squirming, it was simply a sea of ​​insects.

Just like the waves, one wave after another hit everyone.

"Come closer, come closer to the altar, everyone form a circle, back to back..."

"Don't mess up the formation..."

Everyone was stunned by this scene, and only came back to their senses after Chen Pi A Si's loud shout.

At this moment, Chen Pi A Si was also anxious. After all, he had been to many ancient tombs, but this was the first time he encountered such a situation.

He was a little panicked at the moment, but he still had experience and commanded quickly.

At the beginning, it was a bit chaotic, and everyone fired randomly, but those centipedes were too small to have much effect.

Unless it was a hot weapon that could attack a large area, the effect would not be ideal.

"Kill..."

"Kill..."

"Fuck him..."

Everyone fired while retreating, and the few people with guns fired wildly at the centipede army.

But it had little effect!

Uneasy emotions spread in everyone's hearts!

Fear!

Despair!

And regret....

Cold weapons were useless at this time.

Wu Xie also noticed this situation, and thought quickly....

This is definitely not a solution. Sooner or later, they will be overwhelmed by the centipede army, and by then there will be nothing left.

"Fatty, Panzi, you two quickly create a protective circle, use gunpowder or gasoline..."

"Okay, Panzi, cover me..."

Fatty knew the situation was urgent, and took out the detonator from his backpack without saying a word.

"Fatty, you can't use explosives, do you want to bury us alive?"

The hall will collapse if a pack of explosives is put down? Even if we are not killed by these things, we may be buried alive, right?

"Shut up!" Fatty was already busy and confused, and someone was still making trouble.

Fatty directly dismantled the explosive pack, and then, under the cover of Panzi, he scattered the gunpowder powder in the detonator in a circle two meters away from the altar.

After Wu Xie spoke, Chenpi Ah Si had been paying attention to how Fatty and the others were going to build a protective circle.

After seeing Fatty's actions, his eyes lit up instantly.

It's a good idea. With this protective circle, it should last for a long time, which can buy them some time to think of a solution.

Although the method is good, it is a bit difficult for Fatty to complete it alone, after all, there are dense centipedes everywhere.

And these centipedes may have more legs and crawl very fast.

Even if they have tried their best to block them on the periphery, there are too many of these ghosts.

There are still many approaching Fatty, and Pan Zi can't handle it alone.

Pan Zi was in a hurry to deal with it, and Fatty also had to spare time to deal with the centipedes rushing forward.

For a while, the progress was slowed down, and it would take a long time to form a safety circle.

Chenpi A Si saw this! He shouted: "Monk, Shunzi, you two go to help quickly!"

As a result, they were temporarily safe only when the protection circle was vacated...

After hearing what Chenpi A Si said, Hua Heshang and Shunzi ran to help in a hurry...

"quick...."

"Spread the gunpowder quickly..." the fat man shouted, while quickly dismantling it,

"Quick, attack with alcohol..."

The two groups raced against time, and under cover, they quickly sprinkled gunpowder powder around the altar, creating a protective circle that could accommodate a dozen people.

Wu Xie and the others sprayed alcohol and gasoline directly on the flying centipede army.

Then ignite it, and the place where there is gasoline and alcohol will burn to ashes in an instant.

crackling...

There was a burning smell, disgusting and pungent!

There are too many centipedes in the army, this only slows down their speed and blocks a small part of them!

Where there was fire, the centipedes retreated one after another, then got into the places where there was no fire, and quickly swooped up again.

It felt like it was endless and there was no way to stop them from getting closer.

"Is Fatty okay? Speed ​​up! I can't hold my chopsticks any longer." Everyone was so anxious that they were sweating.

They were almost surrounded. They retreated again and again, and their protective circle kept shrinking.

"Hurry, right away..."

There is strength in numbers!

With the addition of Flower Monk and Shunzi,

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail - 300x250' , target_type: 'mix' });

Soon, the four people sprinkled gunpowder around the altar and surrounded the area within two meters of the altar.

At this time, the centipede army had already forced everyone to the edge of the altar two meters away.

"Back off, you guys quickly step back and enter the protective circle..." Fatty shouted.

Everyone took two big steps back without any hesitation and directly entered the protective circle created by Fatty.

"Boom!"

Immediately, a fire dragon spread, burning in one direction quickly, quickly turning into a circle, surrounding everyone.

With the blessing of gunpowder and alcohol, the fire was still very strong and blocked those things at once.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief for the time being...

As soon as they entered the protective circle, everyone was panting like an ox. Although it seemed that they were safe for the time being, they did not dare to relax at all.

Warily, they looked at the circles of centipedes outside. After breathing a sigh of relief, everyone realized that their backs were wet.

The scene just now was truly thrilling.

Although only 10 minutes had passed, they seemed as tired as after a three-day and three-night battle.

Although everyone had a chance to breathe, they were still very relaxed and stared closely at the centipedes outside.

The battle between the two sides was one-sided, because this circle of fire formed a delicate balance.

But this is only short-lived, and the flame will eventually burn out.

Once the flames go out, they will definitely come back like a tide, and disaster will definitely come as soon as possible...

Trapped situation, no solution! !

Although the centipedes were blocked by the fire, they were still surrounding them eagerly, as if they wanted to wait until the end of time.

Wu Xie also frowned when he saw this situation.

Looking out at the dense swarm of countless centipede insects.

They also understood that the burning circle of flame was their last line of defense.

"Now is not the time to rest..."

"First think of a way to kill more centipedes, otherwise you will know the consequences of the flames burning out..."

Of course everyone knew the seriousness of what Wu Xie said.

Wu Xie didn't say anything more and took out all the alcohol and gasoline from his backpack.

"Fat man, you and Pan Zi strengthen the fire circle. We can't let the fire go out. How long can it last? My little brother and I will find an exit."

Then Wu Xie took out a few spears from the system space from his backpack, actually using the resistance of the backpack, and threw them to the fat man.

"You guys are playing with these guns..."

"Huh? You're so... naive. It's not like you don't know that hot weapons are not very effective!"

"Unless it's a large-scale destructive thing, there are too many and too small of these ghosts. How many can be killed?"

"Nonsense, why should I take out useless things? You try..."

Just give it a try. The fat man didn't believe in evil, so he took a gun and shot at the centipedes outside.

Soon the fat man was slapped in the face.

After shooting, what came out of the muzzle was not bullets, but a long string of fire dragons....

Those who were close enough to be burned by the flames from the muzzle immediately made a squeaking sound.

"Damn, you're awesome! Are you naive and unreasonable? This weapon is so powerful, why did you just take it out now?"

"It's not too late..."

"Hahaha, yes, it's not too late, not too late, fuck it..." Fatty said, jumping out of the fire circle, running to the front of the centipedes and shooting directly.

It can be said that Fatty's behavior is very rampant, causing those centipedes to rush towards him crazily.

With a musket in hand, Fatty is not afraid, and he fired continuously at those centipedes rushing towards him without hesitation, and a large number of them were burned to death immediately.

Seeing Fatty's bravery, the eyes of others lit up, staring at the musket in his hand.

Then they all turned their heads to look at Wu Xie, staring at the three same muskets in his hand, with eager eyes.

For the time being, this gun is a life-saving thing, and those ghosts can't get close to him at all.

Wu Xie directly handed one to Pan Zi, and Chenpi A Si also gave two.

Now it's a critical moment, and there's no time to care so much.

All the flamethrowers are excited, and then they also jump out of the fire circle like Fatty.

Each person stood in a position to clear the centipedes around the fire circle.

They could only fire two shots here and two more shots in another place, just like fighting a guerrilla war.

In less than a minute, many centipedes were killed, but it felt like there were still so many, endlessly rushing towards this side.

Fatty and his men fired another round of shots...

Their idea was simple, to burn as many as possible, at least when the flames burned out, they still had a chance to fight.

But even if they burned batch after batch, the entire space was still full of centipedes.

But everyone had very few supplies, and they couldn't withstand such crazy use.

Soon everyone had only a little gasoline or alcohol left.

To make matters worse, the fire was slowly decreasing...

Originally, just sprinkling gunpowder or alcohol on the ground was not resistant to burning at all...

"Quick, use all the useless clothes, sprinkle gasoline, and reinforce the fire circle..."

"Quick!"

Chenpi Ah Si was old after all, and he found that the fire was decreasing when he was resting on the side.

Moreover, the centipedes that were staring at them outside were also ready to move, and had slowly begun to gather forward.

It felt like they were going to use the insect sea tactic, because some of the centipedes that were testing forward seemed to be fearless and rushed directly over.

The sound of being burned was sizzling, just like the feeling of sizzling when grilling meat.

Sizzling... Sizzling...

Chenpi Ah Si's shouting made everyone realize this serious problem.

Then they hurriedly added clothes and alcohol, barely maintaining the fire in the fire circle.

The fire was temporarily fixed, and the flames flickered, just like everyone's hearts, up and down.

Although they were safe for the time being, they also knew that this was only an appearance and could not last long.

They all knew clearly that there were limited items that could be burned...

Wu Xie did not delay at all!

Although there were a few more muskets in his hands, they could only be used temporarily, not for a long time, and he still had to find a way out.

Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling climbed up the altar and began to look for any mechanism on the human-faced bird statue.

Chenpi Ah Si also came over to help.

The remaining two people consolidated and maintained the fire circle...

This dense tide of centipedes is endless. It seems that there are tens of millions if not hundreds of millions.

Some of them seemed to ignore the fire circle and wanted to break through.

As a result, they were burned and crackled!

Others rushed up as if they didn't see the miserable situation of their companions, as if they wanted to extinguish the flames through the sea of ​​insects.

Although many animals are born afraid of fire, their desire for food is also instinctive.

Even if they are the few people who broke in, they are delicious in the eyes of their army of centipedes.

Many times desire can overcome fear, just like the group in front of them, with flames blocking their names, but they still rushed in without hesitation.

If this group of centipedes really follows the tactic of the sea of ​​insects, perhaps this circle will not last long.

Perhaps what awaits them will be a disaster.....
