Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 153 Mother of the Ten Thousand Snails (plus more)
But seeing a giant corpse snail laying its eggs in the tank, countless dense corpses of numbness crammed into the tank. Looks like it's the corpse mother I'm looking for. The corpse snails that kill people are descendants of it...
I suddenly remembered that snails are amazing creatures that can secrete some kind of liquid to seal the mouth of the shell into a long dormant period. But for a few years at most, what snail can live for hundreds of years?
And for what purpose did the man who built this tomb?
He didn't bury his own body. Why would he raise a large snail in a water tank? These little corpse snails adsorb onto the human body and feed the mother with human energy, so that the mother can give birth to so many snails in a short period of time.
If we let them crawl out of the grave, we don't know how many people will die...
I looked at the giant corpse worm in the tank and suddenly a thought flashed through my mind. The man who built this tomb must know a lot about the five lines of gossip, and he didn't build such a tomb for recreation, it must have had some effect.
If I'm not mistaken, this tomb should belong to five lines of water, aquatic trees, corpse snails, as soon as they go out, go to the next tomb, the one that killed the black car driver.
That tomb should be five rows of wood, fed by white maggots.
According to this inference, there should still be three such graves around Blackjacket. Gold, wood, water, fire and earth, only water and wood appeared. I wonder what strange things are provided for in the other three graves?
Why would the man who built him design such a five-row tomb, what would he want to get through it?
At this point, I will miss the rat seniors who have already sacrificed, if he is still here...
Forget it, forget it.
Think of something real!
The mother of the snail must solve it, otherwise it will lay eggs like this, and when the snail climbs out of the grave and adsorbs on more people, the town of black will be ruined.
But I don't have anything but a phone and a dagger to fix it. Before departure, Zhuang was afraid that something had happened to me and my earthy incense and matches had been wet by water when I entered the grave, and it was simply unusable.
I thought about it and decided to quit the grave immediately.
I climbed out of the tomb on my way in and sealed the hole with stone again. Looking at it, I saw the grass around the tomb that was so yellow, it seemed like more corpses must have climbed out of the hole I had just entered the tomb.
I dared not delay any longer and flew back to the dealer's house. I took off my clothes and examined them. There was a corpse snail attached to my belly button.
Shit, you coming?
I burned it from my body the old way, and I called Jong-ning and told her everything that happened in the grave.
Zhuangning said to me, "My dad woke up a little while ago, and although he was still a little unconscious, some of the things he said might help you. My dad said the tomb was long, he didn't stick to the end, and there was no special amount of gold and silver jewellery in the tomb, and he found some broken antiques and two five-baht pieces of money under a pile of bones. There were fourteen people in the grave, and now my father, there are only two left to survive. ”
I nodded and told Zhuangning, “This time the pussy is a little tricky, because it's not one, it's five! I haven't been able to figure out where it came from yet, but there's a paradigm between them. Now that the water graves have been opened, the snails are spreading rapidly, and if left unattended, once all five rows of graves have been opened, the consequences are unthinkable, and we must stop them as soon as possible. ”
Zhuangning nodded firmly: “What do you think we should do? ”
“Prepare some gasoline and a lighter, I'm going to go to the water grave and burn the mother of the snail.” I replied.
“I'm coming with you!” Zhuangning said, "One more person can do it for you. ”
“No, I have better people, and you have more important things to do!” I looked straight at Zhuangning.
My plan is for Wenjin and Erhu to accompany me to the water tomb, and Zhuangning will be responsible for tracking the white maggots climbing out of the wood tomb to see if they will automatically find the fire tomb.
Zhuangning was stunned first, but nodded immediately and promised.
We went to Wen Jin and Er-Hu without saying anything. The two of them listened to my plan. Some of my husbands couldn't touch their heads. Wen Jin wondered, "Wait a minute. What did you just say? What gold, wood, water, earth, what is that? What do you want gas for? ”
Zhuangning said impatiently: "Don't ask so many questions, just listen to Jiulin. ”
Erhu looked at me for a few moments and suddenly said: “Xiaoning is too insecure to follow alone. Let's go to the grave with Brother Jiulin. Wen Jin and Xiaoning will follow the maggots together so that we can all take care of each other. ”
Wen Jin immediately agreed: “Yes, after all, Xiao Ning is a girl. I also feel insecure letting her act alone. ”
I looked deeply at Er-Hu and nodded with a smile: “That's fine. ”
There are very few places in town that require gasoline, and Wen enters the house because there is more arable land and there is a tractor that is not commonly used. He immediately took Er-Hu home to collect oil. Zhuang Ning and I waited in the same place. I took the opportunity to ask Zhuang Ning: “I always listen to you call Er-Hu Wen in, what are their last names? ”
Zhuangning didn't really understand why the moment was so important, I was also concerned about these little things with the garlic peel of the chicken, frowned and explained: “Wen Jin is the last name, as for Er-Hu... his last name is Yu. This is an ancient family name. The Erhu family is also the oldest family in Black Town. ”
Speaking, Erhu and Wenjin rushed back.
I told Zhuang Ning and Wenjin a few words and took Erhu up the mountain. We easily entered the ancient tomb and strolled through the dark corridors.
Er-Hu asked behind me, "Brother Jiulin, how do you know so much about the things of the dead? ”
“Career needs!” I'm not going to say much to him, simply reply.
Erhu smiled. “What do you know about the five lines of graves? ”
“I don't know much...” I didn't finish the sentence. I couldn't help but pause and stopped in surprise.
I didn't mention the word 'five lines of tomb' to Er-Hu. How did he know?
I was just about to turn around and someone hit me in the back of the head, and my eyes were black, and the whole person fainted.
When I woke up all wet, I saw Erhu lying in front of the water tank, obsessed with staring at the mother of the corpse snail in the tank, and my hands and feet tied tightly together by the hemp rope.
Hearing my movements, Er-Hu slowly turned his head and looked at me with a strange smile: "Kid, did you know that curiosity killed the cat?
Do you know how long we've been waiting for this day... "
I looked at him inexplicably.
Er-Hu hey, smile. He looks proud and excited. He slowly took a bamboo Jane out of the package and gave me the same pointer as Bao. “Do you know that during the Three Kingdoms, we Yu family once made a great figure? ”
A celebrity named Yu? It's also from the Three Kingdoms.
I'm sorry, there are so many bullshit characters in the Three Kingdoms, I really don't understand this little character.
Perhaps my expression was too direct and seriously irritated Er-Hu, who growled angrily: “You don't know the famous danger? ”
