Chapter 44 The depths of the iron chain
"Why the hell are you waiting for these rats to take you home and make you the village's wife?" the fat man yelled.
"Those Hades didn't chase after them, they seemed to be afraid of something..."
The fourth girl took back the iron ruler, and he glanced at the fat man before saying.
Only now did we have time to look back and look around. In the huge dark rectangular passage, countless pairs of blood-red eyes were staring at us. We shined flashlights at us. Those mice were not afraid of the bright light and just stood there and came in.
Drill in.
The dense rat tide really made each of us look extremely pale. The number of Hades rats has been exaggerated to the point where one is stacked one on top of the other. This kind of rat tide rushes over, not even a hundred fucking four girls can do it.
Use it!
"Wouldn't these things catch fire if they touch the back? How could these beasts not be burned to death if they were all crowded together?"
The fat man said doubtfully.
"The water bladders behind them should be controllable. Only when they target enemies will they release flammable substances." I guessed.
"In that case, do you want me to give them a few bullets to try? We can have a feast of roasted rats later." The fat man suddenly came up with a bad idea.
"Get away from me! You are going to die on your own. Do you know that we are in a tomb within a tomb now, and there is a big bucket pressing down on it. Wait for an explosion to collapse the tomb, and everyone is done playing.
.”
The fat man made me furious. After thinking about it, I still felt a little worried, so I snatched his pistol away.
God knows how many people died here to raise such a large number of Hades Rats.
We stopped in front of that door at this moment, and the rats around us didn't dare to take a step forward.
It seems that there is an invisible dividing line there, frightening these rats.
"I said, there won't be a big rice dumpling inside this door, right?"
The fat man said with some trepidation. He took a flashlight and shined a few times into the door, but found nothing.
The strange behavior of these Hades rats made us feel a little uneasy and hesitant for a moment.
You must know that animals have a much stronger sense of danger than humans. Often before a huge disaster occurs, there will be abnormal behaviors such as ants moving and frogs climbing trees, which indirectly proves this point.
Those Hades were a little restless, and their hissing sounds kept ringing here like rain.
"Look at those Hades rats, how many of them seem to be coming over?"
Chen Tuozi said uneasily.
I saw that it was indeed the case. These Hades rats might have sensed the presence of something dangerous, but they couldn't stand the temptation of our 'food'. At this moment, some of the Hades rats started to move forward along the originally clear line.
shift.
"Quickly go! If these rats all pounce on us later, we will be dead."
Wang Yuanchao said with a solemn expression.
"Walk."
I gritted my teeth, now even if there is something scary inside the door, we have no choice.
Who told us to have tigers in front of us and pursuers behind us?
As soon as I walked in the door, I felt a sense of depression!
The previous tomb passages and tomb chambers were relatively grand and tall. Although the width here has not changed, the height is only about two and a half meters, and there are stalagmites stuck upside down one after another from the top.
These stalagmites do not appear to be naturally formed. They are covered with traces of artificial excavation and look like jagged dog teeth.
I looked up and found that these stalagmites were less than twenty centimeters away from my head. I had to walk carefully, lest I be hit by the stalagmites and my head would be bruised and bleed. This feeling was very uncomfortable.
The floor beneath my feet also broke into pieces as soon as I stepped on it. The floor here was like dry land that had been exposed to the scorching sun for several years. It was cracked piece by piece. The gap between two floors was more than ten centimeters.
It felt as if a big earthquake had happened in this passage.
bite!
Just as I was looking at my surroundings, I suddenly heard a crisp sound on the ground, and I was startled.
Wang Yuanchao instantly pulled out his pistol.
But then the fat man's voice came: "Damn, why is there an iron chain on the ground?"
We looked in the direction of the fat man and found that in the far left corner, there was indeed an iron chain as thick as an arm. The head of this iron chain had several forks and was firmly fixed on the surrounding rock wall.
The other end leads into the darkness, which is so long that you can't even see the end at a glance.
"What is this chain used for?" I asked with a frown.
I felt a little confused. Could it be that the rats were so afraid before? Could it have something to do with this iron chain?
"Isn't there a big rice dumpling tied to the other end? Why don't we pull it off and try it?" the fat man suggested.
I glanced at Miss Fourth and Chen Tuozi, and seeing that neither of them objected, I nodded and worked with the fat man to pick up the iron chain, and then pulled it toward us.
Ding ding ding!
The entire passage was filled with the crisp notes produced by the friction of metal on the ground.
To our surprise, when we went to pull the iron chain, we found that it could be pulled with a little force. It seemed that there was nothing tied to the other end of the iron chain.
It only took the fat man and me a few minutes to pull back a long length of chain. The chain almost coiled into a hill next to us, but it didn't end.
"What the hell is going on? The chain is getting longer and longer. Why can't it seem like it can't be pulled all the way?"
The fat man was stunned for a moment.
"Dingdang, keep pulling, hurry up!"
At this moment, Wang Yuanchao suddenly said, his expression was a bit solemn, as if he had discovered something.
I didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately used all my strength to pull the iron chain crazily towards us.
Suddenly, I seemed to smell a faint fishy smell.
"Dingdang, why are your hands bleeding?"
The fat man shouted next to me. I quickly looked at my hands, which were now covered with dark red blood.
I quickly rubbed my palms together and felt a little relieved when I saw that my hands were not injured.
"This blood is from the iron chain..."
Wang Yuanchao pointed to the dark iron chain, squinted his eyes and said, "The surface of this iron chain is very moist, and the blood on it has not dried up."
"Besides, the corpse aura is very strong!"
The fourth girl interrupted Wang Yuanchao, and he pulled out an iron ruler. At this moment, there was a layer of dazzling blue light on the iron ruler, which we could clearly see even with a flashlight.
I took a deep breath, my heart pounding.
You must know that when we were on top of the tomb, the blue light emitted by the iron ruler in the fourth girl's hand was almost invisible. Unless the flashlight was turned off, it would not be visible at all.
