Poison Tongue System: Host, your head is a little green

Chapter 284 Mutual restraint

Along the way, Qiao Zhen and the others walked in cautiously.

After walking about tens of meters, several people entered an open environment.

There was nothing in the tomb, and even the words that were spoken in the empty environment seemed to echo.

What's more, Qiao Zhen and the others stood among them, feeling quite chilly.

"Hey, what place is this? Why is it so cold?" Shao Fei frowned.

"Yeah, this place is just like the fresh-keeping cabinet of a refrigerator. I guess the temperature has reached zero, right?" Pei Ying nodded.

Qiao Zhen on the side frowned tightly.

He took a closer look around and found that there was a platform not far away. It was a platform of about four square meters, surrounded by flowers, making it difficult for people to see clearly what was on the platform.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Qiao Zhen greeted and led the crowd forward.

After walking this way, Qiao Zhen seemed to understand more and more what was going on.

Until a few people stood in front of the pile of flowers, separated from the flowers, looking at the two corpses on the platform.

"This……"

"it is as expected!"

Qiao Zhen smiled, interrupting the surprised exclamations of the people on the side.

"This is a well for an underground river. The temperature of the underground river has been pouring in here, so the temperature inside will be kept at zero degrees."

"And at such a temperature, the corpses can be preserved very well, just like the meat in the refrigerator, or the materials in the strategic goods. They used the temperature of the underground river to preserve these two people!"

"I understand the meaning, but why are there two corpses here?" Shao Fei asked: "Shouldn't they be placed in coffins? But now there are no coffins, just put them on this platform , this... is unreasonable?"

"What's unreasonable?" Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "What if these two are lovers? Or, the two have their own temperaments, so they didn't choose to use a coffin, feeling that it was too depressing. Just put it here, just like falling asleep, the body will not be destroyed, this...isn't it good?"

"Refrigerator?" Chen Ying said with disgust on her face, "Your words make it hard for me to open the refrigerator in the future!"

Qiao Zhen felt embarrassed.

The other party's associative ability is really good, if you explain it further, you may think of the frozen meat in the refrigerator!

"Then what... go up and see what's going on!" With that said, Qiao Zhen made a gesture to approach the platform.

However, just as he was about to approach, many blood-red centipedes suddenly sprang out from the flowers.

There were a lot of these centipedes, densely packed, they spread out almost constantly, and finally crawled towards Qiao Zhen and the others.

Seeing the centipede that looked like the ground was stained red with blood, everyone hurriedly backed away, each tensing their hearts.

"Brother Qiao, this thing thought you were going to open the refrigerator, what should we do now?" Shao Fei smiled wryly.

Qiao Zhen didn't know either. Now that all his backpacks had been taken away, Huozhezi was left with these few. It might not be easy to deal with so many centipedes.

"First... step back and see what's going on with this thing!"

As Qiao Zhen spoke, he led the crowd to the corner.

For some unknown reason, these centipedes were not close to the exit. When Qiao Zhen and the others were less than one meter away from the exit, these centipedes began to crawl back in batches.

"Is there a range of action?" Qiao Zhen's eyes widened.

Qiao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that these blood centipedes had a range of action.

Pei Ying next to her smiled awkwardly: "Maybe it's not the scope of action, but... but this thing?"

Qiao Zhen was puzzled, and followed Pei Ying's gaze.

He found that there was a stone pillar in the sky above, and a blood-red snake was coiled on the pillar, but the snake seemed to have its eyes closed, ignoring Qiao Zhen's intentions at all.

"Tch, what's there to be afraid of, it's just a sculpture!" Shao Fei let out a sigh of relief.

Indeed, this thing is really like a sculpture coiled on a stone pillar, the thickness of an adult's arm, about three or four meters in length.

And it looks alive, without any movement.

[Wan Xiao System: You really have no brains. This is a red flood dragon. Who told him it was a sculpture? 】

"Red flood dragon?" Qiao Zhen blurted out.

Needless to say, this thing does look a bit like a shrunken dragon, with a thing like a rhinoceros horn on its head, but the whole body is blood red, and its size is not as huge as a real dragon.

"What red pepper, I still have green pepper!" Pei Ying rolled her eyes: "Hurry up and find a way to fix this thing, I feel that this thing seems to be able to restrain these centipedes, let's hold this thing in our hands, those centipedes Don't dare to come closer!"

Qiao Zhen smiled awkwardly: "You also think this is a sculpture?"

"Otherwise?" Pei Ying said, "Our movement is not small. So many centipedes have been awakened. If this thing is real, can it hang on it so safely, just like hanging sausages?"

"Sausage?"

"Ha ha!"

Qiao Zhen smiled, this adjective is indeed good.

But this 'sausage' is something that can kill them at any time.

"You...you don't want to tell me that this thing is real and alive?" Pei Ying asked.

Qiao Zhen nodded with a wry smile: "Bingguo, you guessed it right!"

"This thing is not only alive, but... it's also a dragon. To be precise, it's a red dragon, which is a special creature among the dragons. It's very aggressive, and its scales and armor are like red-hot iron , anyway, if you come across it, it will directly burn you to death, it can be regarded as...an ancient, relatively rare species!"

"Ah?" Shao Fei's eyes widened: "Brother Qiao, it's already this time, are you still in the mood to talk about Liaozhai?"

"Who told you that Liao Zhai was joking?" Qiao Zhen rolled his eyes: "This thing is probably still asleep. If it is awakened, let alone the group of blood centipedes can't escape, we have to explain that it is here!"

"This is much more ruthless than the blood centipede, and it is rumored that this thing's actions are as fast as thunder, as fast as lightning. We haven't woken up yet, and we will probably make people dinner!"

"Then... what should we do?" Shao Fei asked, "How about... let's go?"

Qiao Zhen shook his head: "Go? Where are you going?"

"Don't worry, the owner of the tomb raised the red flood dragon here, and raised a circle of blood centipedes around it. This method of mutual restraint and traction is probably to give the intruders a chance!"

"Or, the owner of the tomb wants to explain something, so we set up this game. If we can find the needs of the owner of the tomb, maybe we can survive!"

"Otherwise... going back is a dead end, do you think there is any other choice?"
