Chapter 240 Turning point in despair
The situation is much more serious than we expected. A tall blind man is enough to give us a headache. Not to mention there are monsters with extraordinary attack power, half-human and half-goat monsters, and zombies wearing ancient costumes. . Each one is more terrifying than the last. No wonder the blind man Gao can still remain undefeated after more than three hundred years and countless fights.
Facing such a powerful opponent, what should we do? I suddenly lost confidence. What's more terrible is that we don't have much vacation left. Time is tight, so we can only fight quickly.
We discussed it with the old monk for a long time, but still couldn't come up with any feasible solution. Before we knew it, it was already afternoon. After all, we hadn't rested for a long time. Drowsiness began to hit us. Except for Xiao Lei and the old monk, there were few of us. All of them couldn't help but yawn again and again. Their eyelids were also a bit astringent.
My cousin felt that our physical strength had reached the limit, so he quickly said goodbye to the old monk and prepared to go back to rest.
After we came out of the temple, Li Huizhong accompanied us. We walked for more than an hour before returning to the city. Because the next step of the plan was not yet determined, we would not make any more moves in the short term, so we decided to go back first. Let’s talk about home. Although Li Huizhong repeatedly asked to stay, we still declined his kindness and drove back. There is a proverb in the West: East, west, home is best. We in China also say that "a golden nest, a silver nest, is not as good as a straw nest at home." Although the hotel Luxurious, but we still feel that we can only relax completely at home.
But no one expected that on the way back, several of us almost died. What happened on the way back was really terrible. The whole story is as follows:
In the state of the few of us, only Xiao Lei can drive. At every critical moment, Xiao Lei can always show his extraordinary qualities as a special soldier. Just his ability to resist fatigue is incomparable to us ordinary people. We are all sleepy. It’s hard to deal with it. Only Xiao Lei is still in high spirits.
It’s easy to get sleepy when riding in a car. What’s more, we haven’t slept for such a long time. As soon as we got in the car, except for Xiao Lei who was driving, we all looked like wilted eggplants and immediately started to doze off.
I don’t know how long it took. In my daze, I heard a sharp screech of the brakes. Almost at the same time, I felt my body being thrown out of the seat violently because I was not wearing a seat belt. It hit the seat in front of me. At the same time, I heard the screams of Sister Li and Hongmei. It was so frightening that I woke up immediately. I rubbed my sore head with my hands and hurried to the car. Looking outside. Wondering what is going on.
On both sides of the asphalt road are woods that cover the sky and the sun. Because we often come to this neighboring county, we all know the approximate location of where we are. This is a section of the road before getting on the highway.
There are usually very few cars or people on this stretch of road. It is considered a very secluded place. When I looked in front of the car through the windshield, I was surprised to find that about one meter in front of the car, there was a woman with her head lowered. Standing there, motionless, the woman was wearing very ordinary clothes, with her hair loose, covering her entire face.
Xiao Lei seemed to be still frightened. He held the steering wheel in his hand and lowered his head. He tried to calm down for dozens of seconds before cursing: "Damn. It's really scary. Fortunately, I reacted quickly. Otherwise, this woman would have killed her earlier." It was pressed against her. This woman must have come to commit suicide."
However, fortunately, Xiao Lei and his cousin sitting in the passenger seat were all wearing seat belts. They were all not injured due to the sudden braking. And Hongmei and Sister Li next to them seemed to be fine too.
Just when Xiao Lei wanted to open the car door and go out to see what happened, his cousin suddenly said softly: "Slow down, Xiao Lei. Be careful that there is a scam."
After being reminded by his cousin, Xiao Lei seemed to suddenly remember something. He quickly retracted his hand that was touching the car door. His cousin didn't say anything, but took out a clay pot from the bag next to him. We all know that this clay pot is a container for those special corpse insects. My cousin opened the mouth of the clay pot, took a look inside, and suddenly shouted: "It is indeed a trap. Blind Man Gao is nearby."
Hearing what my cousin said, several of us felt chills running down our spines and the hairs on our eyes stood up. We all quickly moved our heads over to look at the corpse worms in the clay pot. The originally snow-white and translucent corpse worms now turned into It's pink. That's right. Blind Man Gao is lying in ambush next to us. Once we get out of the car, he will probably attack us. Needless to say, the so-called "woman" in front of the car must have been arranged by Blind Man Gao. Or maybe she is. Gao Xiazi himself disguised himself.
We became highly nervous and quickly took out the anesthetic gun from the bag. My cousin suddenly said to us in a hurried tone: "You must not get out of the car. Since the blind man is ambushing here, it means that he has been prepared. If he brings it again, There are a few freaks and that half-human, half-goat monster. We can't deal with it at all. Turn around quickly and go back the way you came."
We felt that what our cousin said was right. Fortunately, he reminded us. Otherwise, we would have gotten out a long time ago. Just when Xiaolei was about to reverse the car, suddenly, the disheveled woman in front of the car slammed into our car. Then The force was so great that it was almost like being hit by another car.
Under her impact, the whole car shook violently, and a loud muffled sound could be heard. The front of the car was slightly deformed. Just when the woman hit us, we all felt vaguely. I saw her face covered by long hair. There was actually black hair on that face. And the facial features on her face were extremely deformed. It looked creepy.
At this time, we realized the seriousness of the problem. Fortunately, Xiao Lei's driving skills were excellent. He suddenly turned the steering wheel and the rear of the car was thrown out quickly. Before we could understand, the front of the car had already been turned around. Then Like a wild horse running wild, he rushed out like lightning.
When we sat in the car and looked back, we found that in addition to the woman, we also saw seven or eight strange-looking people jumping out of the woods. Some of them were wearing ancient costumes, and they were chasing closely behind the car. Although they can't catch up.
Xiao Lei held the steering wheel. The car was speeding on the asphalt road, gradually driving the monsters further and further away until they finally disappeared. Only then did we let out a long breath in the car.
However, I’m really scared when I think about it. If it weren’t for my cousin, we would have gotten off the bus long ago. What would happen if we faced those monsters with extremely strong attack capabilities? I just can’t think of it.
We can also feel that when we try to get rid of Blind Man Gao as soon as possible, he is also fighting back desperately. I am afraid that the fight will become more and more intense in the future.
Xiaolei did not drive back to Li Huizhong. Instead, he chose another road leading to our county. This road is more than a hundred miles farther than the one we took before. Almost the entire journey is on the highway. However, Just stay as far away as possible. At least there are many people on this road and it's safer.
We have also noticed that Blind Man Gao is very hesitant to attack in crowded places because he also knows that once he attracts the attention of the police, he will become extremely passive. Because the weapons and personnel that the police can mobilize are too much for Blind Man Gao. We are very afraid. So for us, the more people there are, the safer we will be.
After this fright, our sleepiness and fatigue disappeared without a trace for the time being. We began to talk emotionally about the attack we just encountered. It seems that people's mental strength is really strong. We were already so sleepy. After being frightened, my spirit immediately became excited again.
After going through all these twists and turns, we got home. It was almost safe. When we got back, it was about five o'clock in the afternoon. We were really tired. We didn't want to do anything. We just wanted to sleep.
I returned home. I didn’t even take a shower, but I paid special attention to closing the doors and windows. I also put the anesthesia gun within easy reach. You can’t be careless at this moment. Then I lay down on the bed. .I slept all night in darkness.
I don’t know how long it took. I woke up from thirst. I turned on the light and looked at the watch on the table. It was just past three in the morning. After such a long period of sound sleep, I was completely recovered, both mentally and physically. Coming.
After drinking the water, I turned off the light and went to bed, but I couldn't fall asleep. In the darkness, I silently recalled the bizarre and tortuous events that had happened recently. The more I thought about it, the more I turned over and over, and couldn't sleep. So I simply went back to sleep. Turn on the bedside table lamp and look for a book to read.
Under the soft light, I looked at the books piled on the table. Suddenly, when a book jumped into my eyes, my whole body was shocked. It was like an electric shock. That book was what I learned from the Feng Shui master. I got it back from home, a book written by that American professor.
I quickly took the thick English book over. I leaned on the bedside and started to read it carefully. I had read this book very carefully. I had a wonderful experience with the professor's description in the book. I still remember it vividly, but I don't know why. There are so many missing pages in this book. And these missing pages are very likely to tell the most critical secrets in that cave. And these secrets. Maybe it has extraordinary significance for us to defeat the blind man Gao. But I don’t know why these page numbers are missing.
Judging from the current situation, we cannot "attack" the blind man by force. We can only "outwit" the blind man. Because originally we thought that there were only the blind man and the half-goat and half-human monster in the cave. Although they are powerful, but After all, we have fought against each other before, especially the half-goat, half-human monster. We already know how to deal with him... We just need to put on a gas mask and don't be overwhelmed by his terrible smell. The rest is simple. In addition, we have to wear a gas mask. .Although Gao Xiazi's personal martial arts is also very good, after all, Xiao Lei has fought against him. Although he did not have the upper hand, he can finally compete. That's why we are actively looking for Gao Xiazi and looking forward to a duel with him.
But recently, through a series of recent events, we have learned that there are zombie-like monsters in that cave, and there are also extremely scary-looking monsters. The attack capabilities of these monsters seem to be even more unfathomable. .So if we fight hard, not only will we not be able to eliminate the blind men, we may not even be able to protect ourselves.
Therefore, what we need most now is to know more about the secrets in that cave. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle. Our understanding of the cave and the blind man is still far from enough.
A thought suddenly flashed through my mind...According to the information Sister Li obtained a few days ago, one of the treasure thieves from other places was still alive. I remember that this person who was lucky enough to survive was a historian. And he has also read the book in my hand. Although it is a manuscript, the content must be complete. Unlike the book in my hand, which is missing twenty pages. If there is a way to get this surviving The manuscript in the hands of the author may lead to extremely important discoveries.
