Chapter 323 Trying and Escape


Chapter 323: Attempt and Escape

It is unknown how many ferocious babies have been born here, and Chen Ziyan does not think that staying here is a good choice.

As if echoing his words, before others could react, there was a rustling sound all around them at the same time, followed by howls like a baby's cry of grief. scream.

After hearing this harsh and weird howling, several people looked at each other, then stood back to back without saying a word, looking around with weapons in hand.

They know... the evil baby is here again!

I just don't know if these evil babies had a premeditated plan or if they happened to form such an encirclement.

When the flashlight beam looked around, Chen Ziyan and the others saw dozens of half-human, half-insect babies, spinning around them.

It seemed that he was a little wary of them, so he didn't rush forward all at once.

At first, Chen Ziyan thought that the reason why these ferocious babies behaved this way was because of the several ferocious babies they had killed earlier.

But then he thought that the nature of these ferocious babies was probably not even living creatures, so how could they be restrained by the death of their companions.

Then the reason why they did not launch a direct attack is worthy of investigation.

Soon, he thought of another possibility and quickly reminded: "Everyone, turn on the flashlights!"

Yes, flashlights.

After quickly going over it in his mind, Chen Ziyan felt that Zhi Ying's behavior might have been caused by the flashlight light.

It was probably because of this reason that the ferocious babies did not attack them before.

After hearing Chen Ziyan's words, the others immediately turned on their flashlights obediently. When several bright beams of light appeared, they could clearly see that the naughty babies surrounding them seemed to have been affected by some kind of power. The suppression was the same, and they all retreated a little.

Seeing such remarkable results, Wang Kaixuan looked at Chen Ziyan in surprise: "Mr. Chen, are these ghosts afraid of light?"

If that was the case, then he wouldn't be afraid.

Not only did they have a multifunctional tactical flashlight on this trip, they also had plenty of spare batteries, so even if they spent a few days with these bastards, it would be no problem.

Facing Wang Kaixuan's expectant gaze, Chen Ziyan shook his head gently and explained: "It may not be a fear of light, it is more likely to be temporary photophobia, but this is a good thing, at least for them We don’t need to worry too much until we get used to it.”

This was his speculation based on the performance of the naughty babies.

Although there is no absolute certainty, it is almost certain.

“That’s it.” Wang Kaixuan was a little disappointed.

On the other hand, Hu Bayi relaxed a little after hearing this and said, "Master Chen, let's take advantage of this opportunity to get out of this hellish place!"

He felt that he could not sit still and wait for death, he must hurry up Take time to act and try to get out of here as soon as possible.

Otherwise, this advantageous condition will be lost once the naughty babies get used to it.

Wang Kaixuan immediately followed and said: "I think it can be done. Even if it really can't be done, we now have guns and explosives. If it doesn't work, just blow up a way out. I still don't believe that these weird things can't be killed." . ”

To be honest, Wang Kaixuan really didn’t take the dozens of pigs in front of him seriously.

What really frightened him were the countless female corpses in the pool.

If every female corpse contained a ferocious baby, then there was really no way he could kill them all. It was beyond his capabilities.

But before he could finish his words, he received a warning from Ding Sitian.

“Explosives cannot be used easily, at least not if they are too close.”

Facing Wang Kaixuan’s puzzled gaze, she explained: “Look carefully at the corners of these naughty babies’ mouths. As expected, the black liquid is poisonous. Although I don’t know how toxic it is, it will be troublesome if you accidentally get it.” Ordinary toxins cannot be viewed from a conventional perspective, so it is better not to touch them if you can avoid them.

Although what she said was a bit unclear, her solemn expression also made everyone understand how difficult this so-called evil is.

"This ugly thing is really troublesome!" Wang Kaixuan said a little irritably after hearing this.

If this is the case, the explosives will basically be declared useless. Given the distance between these ferocious babies and them, if they really explode, they will definitely be gas bombs that explode one by one in the face.

“Watch the top of your head!”

At this moment, Hu Bayi’s voice suddenly sounded.

A few people subconsciously looked up and saw a few ferocious babies crawling around on the top of the cave wall. It seemed that the smooth cave wall did not affect their movements at all.

As a result, the area above them was also lost.

Even Chen Ziyan couldn't help but twitching his lips slightly when he saw this scene. He felt that even if he saw a baby coming out of the ground later and staged a dragnet for them, he wouldn't be too much. Surprised.

"According to the plan, let's go to the exit."

Getting rid of useless thoughts, Chen Ziyan recovered his mind and said to the others.

No matter whether these evil babies will go to heaven or earth, their most urgent thing now is to find a way out of here.

But when passing by the bronze box, Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, could the resurrection of these ferocious babies be due to something in this box?

Since this idea appeared, it began to spread uncontrollably. The more he thought about it, the more likely it became.

But Chen Ziyan is still a little unsure about which item it is.

However, he felt that the possibility of those mandrill skeletons was the lowest.

After this thought flashed through his mind, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but divert part of his mind into his personal space.

Because of the emergency situation just now, he conveniently took the ghost-headed copper letter in, so at this moment, except for the animal skin bag containing the mandrill bones, the remaining two items were in his carry-on space.

After taking a look at the two items that were quietly staying in the portable space, Chen Ziyan looked at the surrounding babies who were avoiding the light, and planned to take this opportunity to do a little experiment.

He now has reason to suspect that one of the two may have caused the baby to wake up.

The first thing Chen Ziyan took out was the bluestone vase, because compared to the three-legged toad in the bronze box, he felt that there was more suspicion of a jade fetus in it.

But the result was a bit beyond his expectation, because even when he opened the cap of the bluestone bottle, there was no reaction from the pigeons surrounding him not far away.

After frowning slightly, Chen Ziyan replaced the bluestone bottle out of the bronze box, but the result was still the same, and the naughty babies seemed not to care.

Such a result made him doubtful, and he began to wonder if he had guessed wrong. Maybe the ritual of awakening the baby was just a one-time procedure, and it no longer mattered what sent the signal.

"How's it going? Did you find anything?" Shirley Yang asked in a low voice.

She was right next to Chen Ziyan and witnessed the whole process, so she could more or less guess what Chen Ziyan was doing. "No." Chen Ziyan shook his head gently.

His attempt was a wink to a blind man, but he gained nothing at all.

But Chen Ziyan was still somewhat unwilling to give up his conjecture, so after a moment of silence, he turned his attention to Ding Sitian's backpack.

The last thing in the copper box at the moment, that is, the animal skin bag, is in her backpack.

If his guess is correct, then this is the last and only answer.

Noticing the change in Chen Ziyan’s gaze, Shirley Yang also looked over and immediately understood what Chen Ziyan was thinking.

After knowing that he failed to get any feedback on the two items in his hand, he turned his attention to those mandrill skeletons.

Thinking this in her heart, she quickened her pace and walked to Ding Sitian's side and whispered a few words in a low voice.

Chen Ziyan didn’t know what Shirley Yang said, but he knew that Ding Sitian took out the animal skin bag and gave it to her after Shirley Yang finished speaking.

Shirley Yang, who got the animal skin bag, paused for a moment. When Chen Ziyan came over, he handed it over: "Try this again."

"Okay." Chen Ziyan agreed. After saying a few words, he reached out and took the animal skin bag.

But before he could try, Hu Bayi, who was at the front of the team, said, "Master Chen, we're here." Successfully, now we have arrived at the exit we saw earlier.

Of course, being able to arrive so quickly is closely related to the fact that they were relatively close to their original location.

After hearing Hu Bayi's words, Chen Ziyan didn't think too much. He put the animal skin bag into his pocket and quickly came to the front of the team.

At this moment they have reached the side of the cave, and in front of them is a thick square stone with neat edges.

"Come on, move this away."

Chen Ziyan called to the others without hesitation and wanted to move the thick stone slab. He guessed that the exit was behind the stone slab, otherwise there would be no need to place one here. The artificial traces are so obvious on the stone slabs.

But after the stone slab was moved a little, Chen Ziyan's heart sank because he couldn't see the slightest light in the gap between the stone slab and the cave wall behind it, which made him feel bad. premonition.

After completely moving the thick stone slab away, Chen Ziyan sighed helplessly in his heart.

His hunch was not wrong!

There was a cave behind the stone slab, but it was not the exit he had imagined, but a solid cave that had long been abandoned.

It looks like it should be the nest of some kind of creature. Looking at the size of the cave, Chen Ziyan thinks that this should be the place where those mandrills used to live.

But this makes sense, after all, King Xian seems to attach great importance to these mandrills.

"This..."

Hu Bayi let go of his hand holding the stone slab and looked at the cave in front of him in astonishment.

This is different from what he imagined.

Facing the doubtful looks from him and Wang Kaixuan, Chen Ziyan did not immediately give an explanation, but said directly: "If you take the waterway, the exit should be at the end of the water tank!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Ziyan took the lead and headed towards the water.

Because he saw the stone slab, he subconsciously thought that the exit was here, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered that the real exit of the gourd cave was at the end of the water flow.

Hearing what Chen Ziyan said, Hu Bayi and the others immediately followed him step by step, regardless of explanation.

Fortunately, until they came to the water pool, the ferocious babies did not attack them, which made several people slowly heave a sigh of relief.

Looking at the female body floating not far away, Chen Ziyan reminded: "You need to swim through the rest of the road. Everyone should be careful later."

After finishing speaking, he looked He said to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan: "Old Hu, Fatty, you come to take the lead."

Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone knew that he was definitely going to take Huahu to break up the queen. It's a well-established rule in the team.

"Okay." Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan responded in unison.

Naturally, the two of them would have no objection to such an arrangement. If strictly considered, with so many ferocious babies around, it would undoubtedly be more dangerous to break up.

Then the two briefly checked their equipment, and after confirming that there was no problem, they jumped into the water together and swam forward along the current.

After swimming a certain distance, Hu Bayi raised his hand and made a 'safe' gesture, indicating that others could enter the water.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan asked Shirley Yang and Ding Sitian to follow quickly, so that their situation would be safer.

But he still stayed on the shore, hoping to contain the group of babies for a while.

After all, even if the flashlight is waterproof, the light will inevitably be suppressed in the water. By then, the baby who has adapted to the light will probably attack.

Chen Ziyan didn't want to have to be distracted to help when the time came. It would be better for him and Huahu to face the attack of the baby. At least they were confident that they could deal with it.

While waiting, Chen Ziyan also thought of the animal skin bag that he had put into his portable space.

After scanning the surroundings for those who were still watching eagerly and showing no change at all, Chen Ziyan finally gave up his guess.

It seems that this animal skin bag has no effect on the babies.

But what Chen Ziyan didn't know was that at the moment he put the animal skin bag away, although the born babies around him had not changed, there were changes under the water that he could not see.

Those female corpses that were floating towards the surface of the water, after the animal skin bags were put into the portable space, seemed to have received some kind of signal, they all turned around and dived back into the deep water.

After waiting for a while and feeling that the others should swim a certain distance, Chen Ziyan also took Huahu into the water.

In view of the fact that the naughty babies might take advantage of the situation to attack, Chen Ziyan entered the water without any hesitation and immediately swam with all his strength in the direction where the others left.

As he quickly moved away, Chen Ziyan did not forget to look back and found that the babies had indeed followed him into the water.

But the appearance of these ferocious babies in the water made Chen Ziyan feel extremely uncomfortable.

The current appearance of these guys is simply unsightly. Not to mention their hideous faces, they are still covered in bloated wrinkles. Their rough skin does not look like a newborn baby. They look like An old and ugly software crawler is really an eyesore.
