【Chapter 471, Mass Grave】

There was lightning and thunder, and there was heavy rain.

Mass graves in the wilderness are full of tombstones. The densely packed broken tombstones are engraved with messy characters, and hands are constantly reaching out from the soil under the tombstones.

Some hands have been buried in the ground for so long that their skin has rotted away, and even their bones can be seen. There are also some fresh corpses with pale and slender arms and bright red nail polish on their fingernails.

Ye Qi's mind was in a mess, there was constant thunder in his ears, and the heavy rain soaked him all over. He touched his face randomly, looked at the hands that had broken out of the ground, and asked loudly: "What on earth are these? A ghost or a zombie?!"

Xiao Lou didn't know if the person crawling out from under the tombstone was a ghost or a zombie? Is this secret room a supernatural secret room, or an escape room similar to Resident Evil?

He couldn't think anymore.

His waist tightened slightly, and Xiao Lou noticed the familiar power from Yu Hanjiang. The moment those ferocious-looking things crawled out of the ground and almost grabbed Xiao Lou's calf, Yu Hanjiang suddenly hugged Xiao Lou and jumped into the air. At the same time, He shouted to his teammates: "The mass grave is too big, get out of here as soon as possible!"

There is no end in sight of the mass graves, and no one knows how many kilometers they stretch.

On a dark rainy night, everyone can only rely on luminous pearls for lighting, and the luminous pearls can only illuminate a fan-shaped area 10 meters in front of them. All the places that the luminous pearls can shine are full of tombstones, and those things that don't know whether they are ghosts or zombies move from place to place like ants. Welled up from the ground.

Just as Tang Ci was about to run forward, his right foot was suddenly grabbed by a pair of cold hands, and his body fell straight down!

The heavy rain made the ground extremely muddy, and the entire mass grave seemed to have turned into a huge quagmire.

Tang Ci struggled hard, but he was stuck in the quagmire. The more he struggled, the deeper he fell. In the blink of an eye, Tang Ci's legs below the knees were already submerged in the quagmire.

When Lu Jiuchuan saw this scene, he was immediately filled with jealousy!

He rushed to Tang Ci's side in three or two steps, hugged Tang Ci's waist and pulled him up with force. A strong force pulled Tang Ci out of the ground. Lu Jiuchuan took out the Ice Sword with his other hand and swiftly pulled Tang Ci out of the ground. A sword swept across the ground.

A flash of snow-white sword light flashed, and the hands holding Tang Ci's legs were cut off by Lu Jiuchuan's sword!

Tang Ci was rescued. His trouser legs were stained with mud, wrinkled and dirty. His white shirt clung to his body, highlighting his lean body curves. His wet hair stuck to his pale face, and he looked kind. Heart-stopping vulnerability.

Lu Jiuchuan hugged him tightly and asked in a low voice: "Are you okay? Are you injured?"

The man's voice was mixed with the deafening thunder, and it sounded like he was trembling slightly.

Tang Ci's face quickly calmed down. Compared with what happened to Plum Blossom J, the zombies this time were not a big threat to him, not to mention there were teammates around him. He lightly patted Lu Jiuchuan's shoulder and said, "It's okay, just now I could feel them scratching and biting my legs as I was being pulled into the mud."

When Lu Jiuchuan heard this, he shouted to his teammates: "This is a large swamp. Everyone must be careful where you step, don't fall into it!"

After saying that, he summoned Suzaku and whispered in Tang Ci's ear: "I will take you away."

Lu Jiuchuan turned over and sat on Zhuque, holding Tang Ci's waist tightly with his other hand. The big fiery red bird let out a crisp scream, spread its wings with a "swish" sound in the dark night, and flew forward like a sharp arrow.

Lu Jiuchuan looked down and saw that the hands he had just cut off seemed to be conscious. They were still crawling around on the ground after being cut off. They were frantically looking for living things. In the blink of an eye, the legs of nearby Gui Yuanzhang were also cut off by those After grabbing his hand, Gui Yuanzhang swung the brush in his hand, and all the severed hands on the ground were thrown away——

Gui Yuanzhang drew a wind trajectory with his brush, and while flying forward in the direction of Lu Jiuchuan, he shouted to his teammates: "It's not a ghost, it's a zombie!"

Xiao Lou also realized that ghosts are illusory things, and it is impossible for a phantom to have its hands cut off. And these things are obviously dead people crawling out of graves.

Lu Jiuchuan said with a solemn face: "The mass mutilation of corpses on a large scale. These things are much more powerful than the low-level zombies encountered in the zombie town! Please try not to touch the ground, be careful not to be pulled down by them!"

The densely packed hands left almost no place for everyone to stay.

Lu Jiuchuan rode Suzaku and brought Tang Ci with him. Yu Hanjiang used Qinggong cards to take Xiao Lou. Liu Qiao also used Qinggong cards to fly in the air. Shao Qingge and Ye Qi used teleportation cards to bring Lao Mo and Long Qu to escape. Chu Huaying Her own speed is extremely fast, and she often escapes to the next place quickly before those hands can catch her.

Everyone used their special skills and fled from the mass grave as fast as they were being chased by wolves!

Half of the people were teleporting on the ground and running wildly, and the other half were flying in the air. Everyone was running for their lives together, which was really embarrassing.

However, 5 minutes later, Lu Jiuchuan was surprised to find that there was no end to this mass grave?

There were still countless tombstones and zombies crawling out from under the tombstones. There were more and more white arms, even crowding the ground.

Lu Jiuchuan, who was leading the way on a Suzaku, couldn't help but stop and turned around and asked, "Why can't you get out?"

Tang Ci said: "How big are these mass graves? Are we going in the wrong direction?"

Yu Hanjiang took Xiao Lou to the area near Zhuque. Xiao Lou said: "It's too big here, and there's nothing to refer to on a rainy night."

direction, we would probably have been spinning in circles! "

Turning in circles is the "circular motion" effect of living things. Since the lengths of human left and right legs are not the same, the left and right wings of birds are also not the same length. When walking forward while blindfolded, it is like a compass with two legs, one long and one short, drawing a circle. Likewise, humans and animals always come out of a big circle.

Normally, humans and animals can walk in a straight line because there are reference objects around them, and the brain has been helping us adjust our course of action. Although they were not blindfolded now, there was no reference at all around them.

On a rainy night, there are no stars in the sky as a reference for direction.

There are large mass graves, with tombstones everywhere, and not even a tree around.

If you can't tell the direction, you can't go out. Suzaku must have made a big circle in the sky.

Ye Qi shouted from below: "We don't have enough Qinggong cards. Although the teleportation cards are fast, they always fall to the ground. My feet were almost caught by a few zombies just now. It's so disgusting!"

The cold hands grasped his ankles, and the feeling made Ye Qi's spine tingle just thinking about it!

Shao Qingge said: "Everyone decides what to do as soon as possible. Those of us who don't have Qinggong cards cannot stop for too long."

It only takes more than 2 seconds after landing, and the white fingers around them will grab their ankles like iron hoops and pull them into the quagmire. Once they sink into this quagmire, it will be difficult to climb out. Shao Qingge was also grabbed by a pair of hands just now. Fortunately, he stepped on the opponent's wrist and broke it, but the cold touch still made him feel lingering fear!

He, who had always loved to be clean, was now covered in mud and water, his hair was messy, and his face was as cold as ice.

He was running for his life in the mass grave, and from time to time his legs would be grabbed by the cold zombies and pulled down hard... The most terrifying nightmare he had ever had since he was a child was much better than the current situation.

These disgusting things kept grabbing at them and running away. Not only could they not maintain their physical strength, it was also difficult to stay calm mentally.

Gui Yuanzhang suddenly said: "You guys, come to me!"

When Shao Qingge and Ye Qi heard what he said, they immediately took Lao Mo and Long Qu with them and teleported to Gui Yuanzhang.

Gui Yuanzhang took out a piece of paper, and something changed before his eyes. He saw the white paper quickly unfolding into the size of a scroll in the air. Then, he used a brush to float the paper into the air, and whispered: "Go up first. , my writing power won’t last long, but it’s still much better than running on the ground!”

Several people immediately climbed onto the scroll. Gui Yuanzhang made a temporary picture that could "fly" and led everyone quickly to Lu Jiuchuan's Suzaku. Everyone was hovering in the sky.

Lu Jiuchuan suggested: "Why don't we just kill them out? Aren't they just some zombies!"

Xiao Lou shook his head and objected: "No, the area of ​​​​the mass grave is too large, and there are no one knows how many zombies there are. Fighting there rashly will only be time-consuming and labor-intensive. Moreover, the nature of the zombies encountered this time is different from the zombies in the 2 of Spades. It doesn’t necessarily mean he will be beaten to death.”

Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "Xiao Lou is right. Zombies are clumsy and slow because they are infected with the virus. Their weak points are in their heads. They can be killed by breaking their heads. But now, the dead people buried underground have transformed into corpses. Brother Ninth just chopped them down." The severed hands can still move, so it’s obviously not something that can be killed simply.”

After he said that, he threw a grenade towards the ground. There was only a loud "boom" sound. A large tombstone was blown into ashes by the exploding grenade, and the nearby zombies were also blown away. However, , after those things were blown away, they were still able to continue crawling on the ground dragging their stumps and broken arms.

Ye Qi stared at the zombies at his feet with wide eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "These are dead people, so naturally they are not afraid of death. Simple knives and guns are not a threat to these dead things at all! Maybe, my Are the control skills useless?"

He took out his flute and tried to play a song. As a result, the zombies at his feet showed no reaction.

Shao Qingge frowned and said, "Xiaoye's control techniques are all about drowsiness and dizziness. They are aimed at living creatures. Now we are encountering dead things - how can dead people be drowsy and dizzy?"

Most control skills are useless to things that are already dead. Directly turning on the piano to stabilize the body may be useful, but unfortunately the piano can only control a range of 500 meters. This mass grave is several kilometers away visually!

It's raining heavily now, so the method of asking Ninth Brother to fire up the Suzaku Heavenly Fire and set fire to the mass graves won't work at all.

The teammates looked a little solemn.

Weapons can't kill zombies, musical instruments can't control dead objects, and we can't set fire to fire in heavy rain... What should we do?

Lu Jiuchuan frowned: "It seems that the gatekeeper has given us a problem from the beginning this time!"

Xiao Lou lowered his head and saw that the area of ​​​​this mass grave was shockingly large. As far as he could see, there were estimated to be at least tens of thousands of tombstones. They only have two Qinggong cards, but the [Body Light as a Swallow] card must find a foothold every 10 seconds. The Suzaku card is the most stable. Brother Jiu can always ride it and fly in the air with Tang Ci. But there are still half of the teammates, and the displacement cards cannot float in the air. The time that Gui Lao's pen and paper can float in the air is very limited...

Once you fall down and fall into a group of zombies, the consequences will be disastrous!

Fighting takes time and effort, and you also risk being dragged into the mire by a large number of zombies.

If you don't fight, escaping from the air is of course the best way. After all, zombies can't fly. But the problem is that they can't tell the direction now, they keep circling in circles, and they can't escape from this mass grave!

Xiao Lou took a deep breath and quickly calmed down to think about countermeasures.

Suddenly, he thought of an idea, took out the card, and shouted to Tang Ci: "Mr. Tang, use the drone to cooperate!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

Everyone saw Xiao Lou suddenly throw out a [Lantern Tree] card.

This was the reward obtained in the secret room of squares during the Lantern Festival. Everyone still remembers those complicated lantern riddles that Xiao Lou guessed. At this time, the lantern tree covered with lanterns reappeared in the mass graves. On a dark rainy night, a beautiful lantern tree appeared in the wilderness. The light shone on the surrounding tombstones. This scene was indescribably weird.

Xiao Lou activates the skill "Thousands of Lights" - the lantern tree instantly lights up hundreds of lanterns that cannot be extinguished, making the scene within 1 kilometer as bright as day; and all hostile targets within 1 kilometer will be involuntarily killed by the lantern tree. Attracted, they quickly gathered under the lantern tree within 30 seconds.

Xiao Lou has never used this lantern tree since he drew it. It is actually a very useful lighting and monster gathering skill.

Nowadays, the area of ​​mass graves far exceeds 1 kilometer. It only attracts zombies within 1 kilometer to the lantern tree, which is of no avail. The key purpose of Xiao Lou's summoning of the lantern tree is actually not to attract monsters - but to serve as a reference.

Just like when traveling through a starry night, you won't lose your way if you have the North Star in the sky. Now, with such a lantern tree that will not be extinguished by rain as a reference, at least they don't have to worry about going in circles all the time.

Xiao Lou looked at Tang Ci and said: "Mr. Tang, let's fly forward as quickly as possible with our backs to the lantern tree. You use the drone to constantly monitor the distance between everyone and the lantern tree. As long as you keep walking in a straight line and stay away from the lantern tree, you will not It will veer off course.”

Tang Ci immediately understood Xiao Lou's thoughts and couldn't help but praise: "What a great idea."

If the distance between them and the lantern tree is always the same, it proves that they are making a big circle with the lantern tree as the center and will never get out of the mass grave. Therefore, by constantly using drones to monitor the distance, as long as they stay away from the light trees placed in the mass graves, they can ensure that they are moving in the same direction.

Just like locating a North Star in the sky and walking with your back to it, the direction is south.

There is nothing better than using a bright lantern tree as a positioning reference on a rainy night.

No matter how big a mass grave is, there is an end. As long as you move in one direction, you can naturally get out.

Tang Ci summoned a drone to monitor the distance and said, "The current distance to the lantern tree is 100 meters."

He raised his head and glanced at Lu Jiuchuan: "Brother Jiu, let's go!"

Lu Jiuchuan rode Suzaku forward quickly, and the others immediately followed.

Tang Ci used a drone to monitor the distance data while helping Lu Jiuchuan adjust the direction: "200 meters... 500 meters... yes, keep moving forward..."

The lantern trees gradually faded away behind everyone.

With this tree as a reference, 10 minutes later, everyone finally left the five-kilometer-long mass grave!

There are gradually fewer tombstones underfoot.

However, a bottomless cliff appeared in the field of vision.

Lu Jiuchuan hurriedly asked Suzaku to stop, looked at the cliff below, and couldn't help cursing: "I finally ran out of the mass grave, and ended up on a cliff?! In martial arts novels, the protagonist can learn martial arts by jumping off a cliff. How can we jump off a cliff? Isn’t it a dead end?”

Everyone: "…………"

Tang Ci looked ugly: "Did we go in the opposite direction? How about we go back the way we came and have a look?"

Gui Yuanzhang said: "The buoyancy of my pen cannot last that long."

The "flying picture scroll" he temporarily floated with people finally couldn't hold on and fell back to the ground. The Qinggong cards in the hands of Yu Hanjiang and Liu Qiao also fell back to the ground because they couldn't find their landing point within 10 seconds and went into cooling mode.

Backtrack? Most likely it won't work.

Ye Qi suddenly shouted: "They are catching up!"

When everyone heard this, they turned around at the same time and saw countless zombies crawling forward quickly in the heavy rain. The Thousand Lantern Tree only attracted zombies within a radius of 1 kilometer. Zombies in other areas all crawled away smelling the breath of living people on their bodies. come over.

From Xiao Lou's perspective, the large number of zombies were like a raging tide, almost completely submerging them.

Some female zombies have hair that reaches their waists, are wearing bright red skirts, and their lips look like they are coated with a layer of blood. Their appearance is even worse than that of ghosts.

Everyone's spines felt hairy and they all took a step back.

Ye Qi couldn't help but said: "What to do!"

Behind you is a bottomless cliff with no way to retreat. If you take one wrong step, you will be shattered to pieces.

There are densely packed zombies ahead. You can't kill them even if you fight them, and they don't take control of most of them.

It drove everyone to a dead end from the very beginning!

As expected of a [battle royale] secret room, it didn’t even give a few minutes of transition and adjustment time. As soon as they entered the secret room, they were chased by a group of zombies. At this moment, everyone wanted to collectively press the ace of spades to the ground and beat it!
