Chapter 60
Several people walked forward along the cave, and at the end of the mural was a strange-looking creature:
It has a human-like face and holds a bloody human head in its mouth.
It has tiger-like yellow markings on its body and an intestine hanging from its leg.
Many people dressed in weird costumes knelt down and worshiped around the monster.
Hua Jiunan said in a deep voice: "It is indeed it, Xiu!"
Chen Daji asked curiously: "Boss, do you know this monster?"
"What the hell is it?"
After being reminded by Hua Jiu Nan, Professor Ma also remembered the origin of this monster.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "The Northern Classic of Hai Nei" record:
The dragon is human, with tiger stripes and intestines on its shins. It is located in the north of Kunlun and in the east of Qiongqi.
The explanation of this record in modern language is:
Near the Kunlun Mountains, to the east of the ferocious beast Qiongqi's territory, lives the ancient strange beast "蜟".
Director Zhou’s face was solemn:
"Nine Difficulties, you mean that the three staff members who died yesterday were killed by this kind of monster?"
Hua Jiunan shook his head:
"That's not true."
"The dragon is just a legendary ancient monster that has never appeared in real life."
"However, later on, some alchemists who practiced evil arts refined a kind of Gu insect."
"It looks very similar to a cricket, so it is also called a cricket."
"Although it is only the size of a human fingernail, it is very hard."
"Not only can they not be hurt by knives or axes, they are not afraid of water or fire."
When Hua Jiunan said this, he paused for a while before continuing:
"Fireworms are fierce by nature and will attack any living creature that comes close to them."
"My favorite thing to eat is human brains."
"They burrow through the roof of the mouth, suck out the brain and lay eggs inside."
Director Zhou was very anxious after hearing this:
"So, the three comrades who died yesterday have been parasitized by this monster?"
"No, we have to go back quickly!"
"Find a way to kill the monsters before they grow up!"
Hua Jiu couldn't hold on and had to go back to Director Zhou:
"Uncle Zhou, don't worry."
"Although crickets are difficult to deal with, their growth cycle is very long."
"It takes at least ten years for the eggs to grow into adults."
"And the eggs are very fragile and easy to kill."
Director Zhou felt relieved and the others continued to move forward.
Professor Ma reminded:
"There is a wall of corpses ahead."
"It's... it's very scary there. Most people will find it difficult to adapt to it after seeing it."
"You must be mentally prepared."
Chen Daji didn’t care at all:
"Old professor, don't look down on me."
"We are also people who have seen the world!"
"I punched evil ghosts, kicked living corpses, and fed spicy strips to the beautiful female ghost sister..."
Having said this, Chen Daji suddenly felt a chill all over his body and couldn't help but shudder.
He suddenly looked up and saw a terrifying "wall":
A series of ferocious human faces appeared on the wall.
These human faces have dried up and are wrapped in a layer of mud-like substance.
Everyone opened their mouths, as if asking for help or wailing.
Others stretched out their arms from the wall, as if they wanted to catch the people approaching.
"Oh shit, what the hell is this!"
Chen Daji suddenly jumped behind Hua Jiunan, sticking half of his head out and looking around in horror.
Although he had been to the Corpse Wall several times, Professor Ma was obviously not used to this horrific scene.
"According to my research in the past few days, these people built directly into the wall while they were still alive."
"Judging from the current excavation situation, the wall is at least three meters thick and ten meters high. As for the length..."
"The length cannot be estimated yet."
"But so far, more than 500 meters have been cleared!"
Chen Daji took a breath when he heard this:
"What the hell, who is so cruel!"
"How many people have been harmed?"
Professor Ma sighed:
"According to current statistics, there are more than 2,000 dead people built in the wall..."
Hua Jiunan frowned and took out the compass, only to see the pointer start to rotate at a constant speed.
Chen Daji also came over to watch:
"How's it going, boss? Have you found the ghost?"
Hua Jiunan shook his head:
"No."
"This situation shows that the yin energy in the area is very strong, but there is no dirt."
Chen Daji muttered softly:
"So many people died so suddenly, it's strange that the Yin Qi is not strong!"
"Since there is no dirt, it means that the pests are the bugs you mentioned, boss."
"In my opinion, just blow it up with a detonator and it will be over!"
Professor Ma gave a wry smile:
"If there is really no other way, this is the only way!"
"This is also the reason why I didn't report it and asked you to come and take a look first."
At this moment, bursts of exclamations suddenly came from outside the cave:
"Look, there's something flying in the sky!"
