Chapter 90 [Lost Civilization](2/2)
Pu Gang smiled and said: "How is that possible?" He looked in the direction the child pointed, but saw the stone statue above his head standing there motionless. He couldn't help scolding: "You kid, are you trying to lie to me?"
At this time, the stone statue suddenly jumped down from a high place, and stabbed Pu Gang's chest hard with the spear in his hand.
The astonishing change only occurred in an instant. Puni was closest to Pugang. He roared, moved his arms towards the spear, accurately grasped the head of the spear, summoned his strength, lifted the stone statue high, and threw it around in a circle. It went out and hit the pedestal in front of it heavily. The stone statue was smashed into pieces, and dark red blood oozed from the cracked parts.
The stone statues in the hall came to life almost at the same time. They raised their weapons and surrounded Tang Lie and the others from all directions.
Tang Lie ordered loudly: "Puni, you are responsible for protecting the little princess and the others." The tiger body rushed out first and faced a stone statue about three meters tall.
The stone statue picked up a huge hammer with both hands and knocked it down on Tang Lie's head. The dragon-slaying knife in Tang Lie's hand struck the hammer like lightning. The sharp edge cut off the hammer head. The hammer head continued to move and hit Tang Lie. On top of another stone statue behind him, the head of the stone statue was smashed into pieces, and the tall body shook and fell to the ground.
Tang Lie moved flexibly and quickly walked around behind the stone statue. He slashed the dragon-slaying knife across its waist and cut the stone statue into two pieces.
Although these stone statues were extremely powerful, their movements were very clumsy. Tang Lie and Pu Gang worked together to quickly fight their way out, with Puni, the little princess guard Lanzhi and the two elf children following closely behind them.
Finally reaching the end of the hall, Pu Gang smashed the stone door in front of him with a punch. Tang Lie swung his knife and split a stone statue in half that was about to rush to him, and shouted: "Get out of here quickly."
The two stone statues, one on the left and the other on the right, swung their machetes towards Tang Lie. Tang Lie cut off the arm holding the knife on the left stone statue with one knife. His left fist gathered strength and suddenly hit the side of the machete on the right. The iron machete was struck by Tang Lie. Hunter punched the statue and bent it to ninety degrees. Before the stone statue could attack again, the dragon-slaying knife in Tang Hunter's hand slashed through their legs one after another. The stone statue that had lost its legs suddenly became half shorter and staggered to the ground. On the ground.
Looking at the blood flowing out of the broken limbs of the stone statues, Tang Lie shook his head in disbelief. Why were these lifeless stone statues bleeding out?
Pu Gang ran at the front to lead the way, while Tang Lie stayed at the rear. Fortunately, the stone statues did not dare to chase them out of the hall.
Convinced that the stone statues had given up chasing, Tang Lie slowed down. At this time, the sound of waves in front became clearer and clearer. A pool with a diameter of about twenty meters appeared in front of them. There was no wind around, but the water in the pool was The waves were rough, and a stone beam about half a meter wide stretched across the pool. This was the only way to reach the other side.
Tang Lie signaled Pu Gang to pass through the stone beam first. Pu Gang walked over cautiously and did not see any abnormal changes. It seemed that there was no hidden mechanism on the stone beam.
Pu Gang returned and Puni escorted Lanzhi and the two elf children through the stone beam. Tang Lie and Xuan Bo followed closely. When they walked to the middle of the stone beam, the waves in the pool suddenly became larger, and the water waves stirred up. It was five meters high, and the water splashed out, soaking their clothes.
Tang Lie said loudly: "Look ahead, keep walking, don't look down," he held the dragon-slaying knife tightly in his hand to protect the little princess in front of him, and no changes in the surrounding scenery could escape his eyes.
The pool water suddenly spun rapidly, and a large whirlpool appeared in the middle. There was a loud bang, and huge waves rose up around them one after another. Water vapor filled the entire underground space, and every time The individual couldn't clearly see the surrounding scene for an instant, and stopped almost at the same time.
When the misty water vapor dissipated, two frightened screams were heard, and a huge tentacle rolled up Lanzhi and an elf child.
Puni threw the child in his arms to Pugang not far away, drew out the iron sword behind him, and jumped onto the tentacle. Before it shrank into the water, he stabbed it deeply with the sword, and blue blood splashed out from the wound. .
A frightening roar came from the bottom of the water, and the water in the pool flew upwards like an explosion. The huge tentacles quickly retracted under the water and dragged the three of them into the pool together with Puni.
At this time, several huge tentacles stretched out from the bottom of the water.
Tang Lie reacted immediately, sighting a huge round sphere in the pool, and suddenly jumped over. His body suddenly changed direction in mid-air, his head dived downwards, and he held the dragon-slaying knife with both hands and inserted it deeply into the sphere. In the midst of it, the powerful sword flame burned fiercely in the monster's body.
There was a burning smell in the air, and several tentacles swept towards the stone beams. Pu Gang rushed to the front and cut off two tentacles with a machete in his hand, then turned to look into the pool.
But he saw that Tang Lie's body was covered with blue plasma, and he was standing on a huge ball with his feet. Energy was continuously sent into the monster's head through the dragon-slaying knife. This fatal attack made the monster's huge head... The body continued to twitch, and finally stopped moving, and the body began to sink slowly.
At this time, Puni emerged from the water holding Lanzhi and the elf child, laughing and saying: "It's a big octopus."
Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, Tang Lie breathed a deep sigh of relief, washed the blue plasma from his body in the pond, swam to the stone beam and climbed up again.
After crossing the pool, they chose a flat open ground to rest for a while. Brothers Puni and Pugang lit up the fire. It didn't take long for the tempting aroma of meat to float, but it was they who cut the tentacles of the big octopus into pieces. Thin slices were skewered on an iron sword and grilled. This was the first time Tang Lie had enjoyed this kind of barbecue.
The little princess hugged her knees and sat in front of the tent. She secretly looked at Tang Lie with her beautiful eyes. The firelight reflected Tang Lie's resolute and handsome silhouette. He burst into hearty laughter from time to time. The little princess unconsciously revealed a sweet smile. She suddenly felt that Tang Lie had quietly occupied a place in her heart. Although the journey was full of dangers, with Tang Lie by her side, everything became charming and romantic.
After coaxing the two elf children to sleep, Lanzhi quietly came to the fire, straightened the clothes of Puni and Pugang, and hung them by the fire to bake.
Puni picked up the grilled octopus fillet with a dagger and handed it over: "You are hungry too, eat quickly,"
Lanzhi smiled brightly, and Puni stayed there for a moment.
"Thank you for saving me," Lanzhi said softly.
Puni was a little embarrassed and said: "This...this is what I should do..." Facing the elf girl, he still felt inferior deep down in his heart, but his subconscious told him that he had a crush on this gentle elf girl. Strong affection.
Looking at Lanzhi's back, Puni was still in a daze. Tang Lie smiled and patted his shoulder, saying in a low voice: "If you like it, do it early. I think Lanzhi has a good impression of you."
Puni blushed and whispered: "Master, I...how can I climb up to others..."
Tang Lie laughed loudly, and then whispered in Puni's ear: "Don't miss this opportunity, it will never come back. We will complete our mission by escorting us to the Holy Snow Peak. Even if you want to see me by then, I'm afraid you won't have the chance." "
After a short rest, they continued to move forward along the passage. After groping in the dark for a whole day, they finally saw the end of the tunnel.
Tang Lie slapped hard on the stone wall and felt that there was solid rock underneath. Pu Gang and Puni searched around but could not find any exit.
Everyone's mood began to become depressed. This turned out to be a tunnel with no exit. They tried their best and trekked for two whole days and nights, but they had to face the fact that they had to turn back.
Tang Lie smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that fate has played a big joke on us. Maybe we should turn around."
The little princess frowned slightly and said: "Since it is a tunnel, there must be an exit to go out." She looked up and looked up, about twenty meters away from the dome. The little princess arranged her pair of cicada-like clothes. The wings soar upward, with a graceful posture, like a fairy on the waves.
Soon she landed next to Tang Lie again and said with a sad expression: "It's also filled with rocks and there's no exit."
Tang Lie comforted her and said: "It's just a journey that was wrong. The worst we can do is go back." In fact, he was not optimistic about the prospect of escaping. He remembered that when he first entered the tunnel, the impact of the giant beast did not knock the stone door into pieces. After breaking it open, I thought the stone door was extremely strong. I wonder if the dragon-slaying knife could successfully penetrate the stone door.
Pu Gang stomped the ground unwillingly, and Puni sighed and said: "Brother, I have already checked, and there is no exit underground."
When everyone was about to leave, the elf child Puni was carrying suddenly said loudly: "No, I feel the wind is blowing this way."
Puni smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's your illusion."
Tang Lie didn't feel the wind blowing around him, thinking it was an illusion caused by the child's fear in the dark.
"Bugs," the elf child exclaimed.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a faint blue light shining in the darkness, moving slowly towards their location.
