Zhang Zhuoxun touched the neck of the corpse again and found that his upper cervical vertebrae were severely dislocated. In other words, Huo Chuqi was killed with a single blow, and his neck was simply broken.
After understanding that Huo Xiaoli was a member of the Wang family, Zhang Zhuxun was not surprised about the coffin lid and casually squeezing people to death.
The ability of the Wang family should not be underestimated. Their training methods may be even more stringent than those of the Zhang family. Those who can persist are not easy to deal with.
That kid was really well hidden. Unlike the Wang family who wore fake masks in the past, Huo Xiaoli used his real face, otherwise Zhang Chuxun wouldn't have been able to detect the flaw, so the chance of him being exposed would be even greater.
Small.
From this point of view, he must have been the one who ordered Huo Xiaoyao to take the initiative to die. No wonder Huo Xiaoyao's last eyes were looking in his direction.
And it is estimated that this is also part of his calculation. He can take this opportunity to use Zhang Zhuxun's methods to prove his innocence. Even Huo Xiangu herself has basically given up her doubts about him.
Huo Xiaoli also took away the bell above the coffin. The impact of that bell on the Zhang family is still unknown, but Huo Xiaoli must have discovered a problem with the reed inside.
Zhang Zhu put the bodies of the Huo family members who were scapegoats into body bags and put them into the space, and then put the coffin lid back on.
Outside the wall hole is another coffin chamber. It seems that there are several rows of such tower coffin chambers on the third floor.
But the footprints inside the coffin only wandered around the interior and exterior corridors, and then stopped in front of a cubicle.
Zhang Zhuoxun raised his head and looked up, frowned slightly, then turned around and went back to Zhang Ruitong's coffin room. After exiting, he walked quickly towards the entrance of the third floor.
That kid is quite smart. In such a critical moment, he still wants to make an attack in the east and west, and use his footprints to confuse people who may come to check later.
It suddenly occurred to him that when Fatty and the others came in, in order to prevent Huo Youxue and the others from getting key clues, they simply brought in all the information they could about the Zhang Family Ancient Building, along with several drawings of Xiang Lei.
It was collected by Huo Xiaoli.
In order to ensure the safety of the Zhang family who came for the funeral, temporary safe houses were set up on each floor of the ancient building to place similar burial objects. With the drawings in hand, Huo Xiaoli could indeed find another temporary place to avoid strong alkali.<
/p>
Unfortunately, this place is on the fourth floor. Huo Xiaoli obviously already knows that the deeper layers of the ancient building are where the secrets of the Zhang family are sealed, so he will definitely keep going down.
As Zhang Zhuxun went downstairs along the stairs, he let go of his danger sense to search for Huo Xiaoli's presence. Soon he reached the fourth floor, only to find that the black ball on the back of the turtle with a human face in the center of the hall was missing. It seemed that Huo Xiaoli had also taken him with him.
Gone.
But at the same time, Zhang Zhuxun also found many strange marks on the dust on the ground. On both sides were three-finger palm prints, with a long, palm-width drag mark in the middle, crookedly extending from the edge of the human face and turtle.
Looking around, the ground on this level is full of traces of this unknown creature crawling.
It seems that some monster that looks like a snake and has two hands ran out from the mezzanine under the human-faced turtle.
Zhang Zhuoxun came closer and found that the surface of the human-faced turtle's shell was messily covered with a light green plastic-like film, which looked like the mucus left behind after something crawled over it. After it dried, it looked like this.
He couldn't help but frown, muttering secretly in his heart,
"What the hell is this? It's not afraid of alkaline gas!" He reached out and peeled off a piece of green film, and found that the film was very flexible and required a lot of force to tear it off.
In the center of the human-faced turtle's shell, the place where the black ball originally stood has now turned into a dark hole. Zhang Zhuxun stood up and looked inside. A strange fishy-sweet smell hit his nostrils, a gas mask.
It can't block the strong fishy smell.
He turned on the flashlight and shined it in, and was shocked to find that the mezzanine below was actually full of green slime, and there were even some small light green snake-like things slithering through the slimy green water.
In the middle of the mucus, there is half a human corpse with blood floating away. The white bones of the downward-facing half of the body have come out, and are soaked in the green water eerily.
The flesh and skin on the other half of the body was also eaten away, leaving only red and pink flesh and blood, which was shaking like a lot of grass-green maggots inside, with green mucus around it.
A small wave of waves.
There is also a broken package floating next to the corpse. The green creatures that are drilling around are eating around the mass, and the dazzling light has no effect on them.
Zhang Zhuoxun squinted and took a closer look at the backpack. It didn't belong to the Huo family. Judging from the shape, it should belong to one of Jude Kao's men. Unexpectedly, he saw it here first.
The small green snake-like creatures in the mezzanine looked like larvae, some were only as thick as a finger, and some looked like mutated tadpoles. Zhang Zhuxun also saw several crawling directly on top of the corpse, as if they were planning to get into the corpse.
A feast in the belly.
This also allowed him to completely see the appearance of this thing. This thing looks a bit like a giant salamander, but it is much flatter than the giant salamander, and it is missing two hind legs and one toe of the front leg. The head is round and thin.
The triangle is like a snake's head, but it has no eyes, so the presence or absence of light has no effect on them.
This weird soft-bodied creature is naked all over, and seems to have no skin, or its skin is replaced by mucus. It crawls slowly like a snail. When it moves, you can see a green blood-like liquid flowing inside.
Its whole body was as smooth as if it had been oiled, and its tail and body were all thin, and it disappeared instantly when it got into the green water.
Before he could figure out what this thing was, he suddenly heard a slight rubbing sound in his ears. Zhang Zhuxun immediately turned his head and looked behind him, and found a man lying on the ground in an extremely strange posture.
Moving slowly this way.
At first glance, it was really startling. It looked like a fake corpse. Zhang Zhuxun quietly moved away from the human-faced turtle and planned to retreat to the corner to take a closer look. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took two steps back, the corpse on the ground stopped.
Moving, a green, flat liquid like a slug poked its head out from under the body, facing Zhang Zhuxun.
Zhang Shuxun's heart suddenly skipped a beat. It was broken. The perception of this thing was sharper than he imagined!
Just at this moment, the same rustling sound of rubbing the ground came from another direction. Soon, the rustling sound sounded throughout the entire space.
Zhang Zhuxun realized that he was unknowingly surrounded by this strange creature. The ground around him was full of flat kelp-like baby snakes.
"Holy shit, damn it." Zhang Zhuoxun cursed secretly. Why didn't he find anything when he came back here last time? Or maybe the release of alkali gas awakened them?
He took out the mechanism buckle from the space and put it on his wrist. Since the ground was blocked, he could only try to walk from above.
However, before he could start to move, he saw those slippery baby snakes seeming to have suddenly lost their sense of prey, bypassing Zhang Zhuxun and starting to crawl on the human-faced turtle.
"?" Zhang Zhuxun was puzzled. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he slowed down and approached a baby snake that only carried a gas mask.
He could clearly see that the baby snake first felt something alive approaching and moved a few meters towards him. Then suddenly it twisted and sped up as if it had been scalded by boiling water and moved towards the mezzanine.
As he crawled over, he even left the gas mask in hand.
In order to verify his suspicion, Zhang Zhuxun quickly caught up with the baby snake, opened a few wounds with the tip of his knife, squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it on the baby snake's body.
Then he saw an incredible picture. The moment the blood droplet came into contact with the baby snake, its body suddenly began to emit a large amount of gray smoke and a burnt and fishy smell. The entire kelp
They were all twisted in pain.
The gray smoke floating out seemed to take away a lot of water from its body. In less than ten seconds, the baby snake curled up into a ball of black cinders. The baby snakes near it ran faster like fire.
.
Zhang Zhuxun put on his gloves again and picked up the small black ball the size of a marble from the ground. As soon as he turned it over, his eyes suddenly froze.
He saw a face, a small wrinkled face, but the facial features on it were very clear, just like the face of a baby that had been soaked in amniotic fluid for a long time before being born.
The shape of this face looked particularly familiar. It was almost the same as the densely packed human faces on the turtle's back that he had seen at the beginning.
Could it be that the big black ball was made up of many small black balls that were dried and then stuck together? That's not right. He was sure that the black ball felt like metal, but it was much lighter than ordinary metal balls, indicating that there was something inside.
Not solid.
He suddenly had an immature guess, and then decided to test it. After knowing that this thing was afraid of Qilin blood, Zhang Zhuxun had no scruples. He caught up with a few more lone ones, dripped blood on them, and got
Several little black faces like sheep dung balls.
The expressions on these black faces are also different. Some are scared, some look like they are crying with their mouths grinned, some have crooked mouth and eyes as if they have had a stroke, some have cross-eyes, and some look like they are making faces.
Once you get used to it, I find it quite interesting.
He climbed back onto the back of the human-faced turtle, tied one of the small black balls with wool and threw it into the green water in the mezzanine below. Then the wool broke and the small black ball hanging on it disappeared. p>
Not discouraged by Zhang Zhu's search, he lowered another one, this time to a place where the corpse had not been submerged and eaten, and then waited quietly.
In less than two minutes, the little black ball suddenly twisted and burrowed into the flesh and blood soaked in mucus. Then, like a magical transformation, it turned into a long kelp again.
He looked as cheerful as if nothing had happened.
Holy shit, my little black ball is so awesome. Through various phenomena, Zhang Zhuxun analyzed that this kelp snake-like thing floating in green mucus should be deliberately raised here by the Zhang family to serve as a kind of similar
The role of the ancient building sweeper.
Even if the agencies and Milotuo outside are not on guard, intruders who enter the ancient building will be killed by the alkali gas released by the agencies, and then become the food of this weird creature.
The reason why I say this is because this thing is afraid of Qilin blood. Lao Meng's precious blood is its nemesis. Although it cannot kill it, it can also act as a deterrent.
And that small metal ball is probably the lid blocking the mezzanine passage. Last time he, his brother and the Huo family were here, maybe it was because both of them had unicorn blood, so this kind of creature didn't have it.
Get out and attack people silently.
I have to say that the Zhang family has come up with a lot of weird gadgets, and they rely on the precious blood of Lao Meng to protect the body, but they do a great job and make the best use of everything, which is very nice.
Huo Xiaoli took the black ball cover away, wondering if there was a little black face following him secretly. After figuring out the whole story, Zhang Zhuxun didn't plan to stay here any longer, so he found a small glass jar in the space and put the remaining
A few withered little black faces were put in and sealed, and then they found the exit and left.
There was nothing abnormal in the next three floors. Zhang Zhuxun quickly reached the stone room on the seventh floor through the secret passage.
At this time, the alkali gas in the ancient building had basically dissipated. During this period, Zhang Zhu changed into more than a dozen sets of protective clothing, all of which were produced by the system. The material was comparable to the military nuclear, biological and chemical protective clothing of later generations. Due to the timely replacement, the alkali gas
It didn’t have a big impact on him.
He glanced at the time on his watch and saw that two hours had passed since he came out of the secret room. Further down was the original stone floor of the Zhang Family Ancient Building.
The new footprints passed through the stone door and went down. Zhang Zhuxun followed him to the lower space of the corridor and found a discarded used protective clothing and a gas mask in the drainage channel next to the stone room.
.
There were many black blood stains on the inside of the protective suit. It seemed that Huo Xiaoli had been injured by the poisonous gas. Zhang Zhuxun put his hand into the drainage ditch and let the cold water wash away his skin. He thought about where Huo Xiaoli would go next.
Where.
In his mind, he recalled the model of the ancient building he had seen a few days ago. Then he stood up and walked forward along the stone path of the Nine-turn Lotus. He came to the top of the cliff of the water pool again. The rope hanging on the edge of the cliff was still there. Zhang Zhu looked for it.
Descend quickly and jump into the water.
Then he held his breath and dived into the water, groping carefully on the stone wall of the pool, and found an underwater carved secret door in less than half a cup of tea.
Zhang Zhuxun came to the surface, took a deep breath of oxygen, and then returned to the bottom of the water. He pushed hard against the secret door. The door was pushed open, and the water on both sides was connected. The water in the pool suddenly surged over. Zhang Zhuxun continued to hold it in.
Hold your breath and swim into the passage behind.
Inside is a square waterway. After swimming for more than 20 meters, the waterway in front gradually becomes wider, and further up are the steps to go out.
As soon as he surfaced, a foul smell hit his face, almost making Zhang Zhuxun stagger.
When I took a closer look, I was shocked to see that all I could see were mummies hanging in mid-air.
