Chapter 197 The Truth
The adult centipede was a maggot with a red head and a green body. It was born with 120 pairs of feet and could grow up to half a meter long and feed on rats. Maggots were Heavenly Dragons. They were dark green in color and had extraordinary talent. Because they were born to feed on their own kind, they would be attacked by their birth mothers from the moment they were born. Usually extremely difficult to survive. Once they survived, they would definitely be extremely vicious and poisonous. The leader of the five poisons was none other than him. When the Heavenly Dragon was born, it had 191 pairs of footsteps. Every hundred years, it would regrow one step, and at the same time, it would add one pair of footsteps. The Millennium Heavenly Dragon happened to have 200 pairs of footsteps.
According to the Gu Gate Insect Scripture, the thousand-year-old Heavenly Dragon didn't live in a place that wasn't extremely yin. It usually didn't drink or eat, only absorbed cold Yin Qi, and only consumed a large amount of blood food during the centennial festival. After eating the blood, the Heavenly Dragon Insect would enter a long period of dormancy. It would breathe with the sun and moon, exhale day and night, exhale all day long, exhale poison gas, ignite in case of fire, inhale all night, inhale cold gas into its stomach, nourish its body. The so-called yin nourishing body, yang nourishing soul. Amongst the five poisons, the Heavenly Dragon Insect was the strongest. And it's the stupidest.
It was late at night, and the Heavenly Dragon Insect was inhaling. Once it inhaled Yang Qi, it would immediately wake up.
Without Jiang Fei's explicit words, Gu Tianyou could guess what this smell was. "How long have we been running in here?" He asked in horror.
Jiang Fei said, "For a while, if the Heavenly Dragon Bug is hiding here, it will be enough to wake it up." At this point, Gently sighing, "If that python leader doesn't die, Just in time to suppress the Five Immortal Bugs, Back then, when Hu Rumeng discovered the python leader, she did not capture it. Originally, it was meant to be used by future generations to control the Five Immortal Bugs, "I found the Python Mountain according to the notes he left behind. Unfortunately, it was betrayed by the people at the entrance. I had no choice but to kill the Python Chief and seize the treasure with you. Now, it's time for the insects to use it. Among the five poisons, the yellow clam is the most intelligent, and the green heavenly dragon is the stupidest. However, in terms of ferocity and strength, it is the leader of the five poisons. Perhaps it is even more powerful than the two outside."
An ear-piercing sound of messy footsteps suddenly rang out, as if countless iron bars were rubbing against the stone wall. In the pitch-black void, it was like the drums of war, filled with murderous intent. In the darkness, a huge head appeared in front of the two of them. First of all, a pair of majestic rosary-shaped antennae, about ten centimeters in diameter, glittered with a demonic cold light in dark green. Then came the enormous poisonous jaw, which was like two enormous Reaper sickles, releasing a pungent and cold aura from its mouth between opening and closing.
The Heavenly Dragon Insect was completely dark green, flickering with a dim cold light. Its curved edges wriggled and moved forward. How domineering was it! After sensing their auras, his body suddenly shrank back. He didn't know how long this thing was, but the exposed part was already three to four meters long. Judging from its retracted posture, there was at least the same length behind it. The centipede's attack used its elasticity to shoot out its body, and its poisonous jaw was inserted into the prey's body to inject poison.
Seeing this fellow enter the attack state, Gu Jiang and the others exchanged a glance and simultaneously retreated to the stone door. The two of them had the same thought and would rather face Sato Shinzhai than face this thing. The sliding door flashed into the previous passageway, then closed, only to hear a loud thud behind him. The entire stone door shook, and it actually managed to withstand this shocking collision!
The two of them were still in shock. They looked up and saw Sato Shinzhai standing on the other end of the tunnel in a sorry state. Panting heavily, he held a short knife in his hand and looked over with a ferocious look in his eyes. Beside him, Cao Xu was holding a pistol, and his clothes were similarly in a sorry state.
The enemies were extremely jealous when they met. Cao Xu immediately shot Gu Jiang and the others when he saw them. Gu Tianyou sighed, pushed Jiang Fei to the side, and retreated back into the door. Sato and Cao Xu chased after each other without knowing what was going on. Gu Tianyou stood close to the door, staring at the Heavenly Dragon Insect whose tentacles were trembling endlessly in front of him, while paying attention to the movements outside.
The Heavenly Dragon Insect began to shrink again. Gu Tianyou decisively pulled open the door and crouched down to the side at the same time. The Heavenly Dragon Bug rushed over like a Tomahawk missile, just in time to encounter Sato Shinzhai, who was chasing after him with a knife. Gu Tianyou quickly pulled Jiang Fei, who had fallen to the ground, through the door. The Heavenly Dragon Insect's nearly ten-meter-long body rushed out of the door. The two of them closed the door and blocked the door tightly. A miserable shout came from outside. It was Sato's voice. Another loud crash followed. "What the hell is this?" Cao Xu said.
This bastard's life was so great, how could he not kill them? Gu Tianyou relied on his courage to pull the door and look outside. The two people outside retreated to the fourth part of the pagoda. The exit was too small for the Heavenly Dragon Bug to continue chasing after him, so he angrily slammed into the pagoda.
Sato Shinzhai was injured and even broke his saber. The big centipede shook its head and tail angrily in the passageway. Sato and Cao Xu were nest in the fourth part of the pagoda. Because the pagoda hadn't completely landed, the exit was narrow. The Heavenly Dragon Insect's head couldn't enter, and the pair of poisonous jaws closed. It was as if a pair of scissors could barely touch two people.
Jiang Fei also looked out through the crack in the door and said hatefully, "I've really seen a ghost. What should I do this time?"
Gu Tianyou thought for a moment and analyzed, "Sato's chest is covered in blood. It looks like his injuries are not light. This time, I have a 50% chance of dealing with him. I have dealt with the little ghost. The remaining little ghost Cao does not pose a threat. The problem now is that this Heavenly Dragon Bug is too annoying to be blocked here."
Jiang Fei said, "You use the rainbow to go out and kill it!"
Gu Tianyou said, "I'm not sure. I don't know the vital parts of this thing. It's useless to rashly go out and chop off a few of its legs. In such a narrow place, if it counterattacks us, we'll still be seriously injured if we don't die. At that time, the situation will be unfavorable for us."
Jiang Fei said, "The Heavenly Dragon Bug has two weaknesses. One is the tentacle used to sense its position, and the other is the last part of its tail. If it cuts off the tentacle, it will become deaf and blind. In the last part of its tail, there is a wind bag. It is only used for its main palm to breathe. If it pierces through it, the Heavenly Dragon Bug will not be able to survive."
Gu Tianyou closed the stone door and said, "The Heavenly Dragon Insect is working hard on them. Let's let those bastards taste it first. Let's have a good rest first." At this time, the Heavenly Dragon Insect's aura was flourishing, and Cao Xu's gun might still have bullets in it, so they could wait for each other to exhaust before reaping the benefits of the fisherman.
Jiang Fei understood and smiled, "Thank you for thinking of these crappy ideas. I was scared out of my wits just now."
Gu Tianyou stared at the huge crystal bottle and asked, "Do you think this thing could be made of diamonds?"
Jiang Fei said casually, "Dream your big day dream." As he spoke, he leaned forward. When he was close to ten meters, he suddenly felt a chill that made him unable to approach him. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "With such a low temperature, if ordinary crystals and minerals really couldn't withstand it, could it really be made of diamond crystals?"
Gu Tianyou said, "I'm fine for now. Tell me what Mr. Hu recorded in his notebook."
Jiang Fei said, That is to say, he had heard that the Japanese had found something here that surpassed the technology of the times, So he came looking, When they passed by the python mountain, they found the python leader. Not captured, He directly arrived here, At that time, this was not the so-called sacred land of the Southern Sect's Gu Sect. He had ordered Su Dong to come here to guard the Five Great Immortal Bugs. At that time, he discovered that the entire mountain was a super gold mine with huge reserves and many unsolved mysteries. He did not have enough time to spend here, so he sent Na Su Dong to guard this place.
At this point, she seemed to recall something sad, After a pause, After stabilizing his emotions, he continued, "You also know who Hu Rumeng is, He didn't care about much in his life, My mom gave birth to me the year I got here, and I was about to give birth, His mind was on that one thing, Even if the secrets here could shock the world, He didn't care about it anymore. He drew a few strange pictures and made a few markings on his notebook. This place seems to be constructed symmetrically. We entered the corridor on the left. There should be a similar corridor on the right side of the hall. In the end, we will arrive at a secret hall where stone eggs are placed. It seems that there are also pagodas and markings. "
Gu Tianyou sighed and said, "He didn't have so many troubles when he came here that day. He can calmly explore the secret. Since there are no other passages in the notebook, it seems that we can only hope to leave by the same route."
From time to time, gunshots and loud collisions could be heard from outside the stone door. The Heavenly Dragon Insect was still mad, and Cao Xu's bullets didn't seem to have been used up.
Jiang Fei said, "There is still a place marked in the main hall of the notebook. Unfortunately, we have no time to worry about it now. There is no time to explore its secrets."
Gu Tianyou's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly asked, "Have you shown this notebook to anyone else?"
Jiang Fei rolled her eyes at him and said, "I was raised by my godmother. Naturally, I won't hide anything from her."
Gu Tianyou rolled his eyes and said in an unhappy tone, "So, she already knew that the ore vein I was looking for was related to the treasures of the Abyss Canal Cultivator?"
Jiang Fei sighed and told me straightforwardly, "Hu Rumeng only left me notes, but I didn't expect that the situation would change. The people from the Southern Sect Gu Sect simply wouldn't listen to me, Huang Shou. Therefore, I wouldn't be able to find this place without your help."
"So she, Cao Xu, the Japanese, and even a lot of people are all thinking about this place?" Gu Tianyou asked again.
Jiang Fei was silent for a while before finally nodding. Then he said cruelly, "So, no matter what, we can't let those people leave alive!"
Gu Tianyou heaved a sigh of relief. Oh, "I see, Cao Xu's mining team was actually here to search for treasures, This place is full of gold, But their goal is not gold, "That's why they accumulated so much gold in the Taoyuan Chemical Company. However, they accidentally woke up the five great immortal bugs and completely annihilated them. Nai Sudong obeyed your father's orders and stayed here. Oroha knew that Hu Rumeng had washed his hands and was greedy for this place, but he didn't know the exact location of this place."
Jiang Fei said, "Yes, Hu Rumeng only left Nai Sudong to guard this place. According to his notes, Nai Sudong has killed many people who tried to find out the secrets of this place. The entire periphery of this mountain is almost filled with Gu worms from the east. Normally, people would not be able to find this place without knowing."
Gu Tianyou said, "So Elder Sister Zou's real intention is to use mining as a cover on the surface, but actually she wants to set up a scientific research base here?"
Jiang Fei nodded and said, "Probably."
Gu Tianyou's expression suddenly turned cold as he asked, "Did she tell you what she planned to do with me?"
