Chapter 396 The Key Points
While Zhong Jialing and Feng Qi were flipping through the notebook, Luo Jiuzheng and his men entered a new secret room.
Behind her were two of Ansa's followers and four black bodyguards. After the series of tortures just now, these people were on the verge of emotional collapse. They were mumbling to themselves, and no one knew what they were saying.
Luo Jiu frowned, "quiet!"
Everyone covered their mouths and managed to keep quiet.
Luo Jiu held up the lamp and shone it around, and several forks in the road appeared before him.
This might be an ancient cave where beetles have lived for thousands of years. The walls around it show traces of digging by giant claws.
The bodyguard O'Neal, his muscles trembling with tension, kept swinging the iron rod in his hand at the air.
He asked in a trembling voice in Yingyu: "Sir, will there be more monsters in there?"
Luo Jiu said: "It shouldn't be. If there was, it would have come out just now. Moreover, it is very difficult for such a huge ancient monster to survive. Food is their big problem.
In their original geographical location, there might be food that could satisfy them. But now the earth's crust is moving, the plates are flipping and crushing, and cracks are forming. It should be that the environment has changed, so they have to risk walking out of the cave and looking for food outside. "
Someone nearby muttered miserably, "So we become their food?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "It's still uncertain who will eat whom."
Everyone was sighing. No one could be as optimistic as Luo Jiu.
Luo Jiu said: "Don't be discouraged, keep moving forward, maybe there is a connection inside, and there may be another way out."
Someone objected: "What if it doesn't work? What if there are monsters? I won't leave. I'll just rest here."
"If you don't leave, I will." Luo Jiu took a step towards a narrow fork in the road, and immediately a dripping sound was heard under his feet.
Everyone was already in a trance because of the monster's fright. When they heard the sound, they immediately became nervous and asked repeatedly: "Where is this sound coming from? What is it?"
"Don't be nervous, it's not a monster." Luo Jiu squatted down calmly and looked at the device with flashing red dots under his feet. "It's a time bomb."
"Ah!" The six people screamed and ran away immediately.
Now I am no longer worried about the road ahead being blocked or monsters existing.
Luo Jiu watched them scatter like birds and beasts and disappear without a trace in an instant, and smiled and shook his head.
Some people are always like this: when faced with a danger, their brains can barely keep thinking, but once there is another danger or difficulties, they lose their ability to make decisions and think.
Not to mention that she was the one who stepped on the time bomb, she should be the one to panic. The main reason was that this special type of bomb had a strong explosion intensity but a small explosion range, and was generally used to blow up the security door of the safe. The person who placed the bomb was still inside, and probably didn't want to blow it down and bury everyone alive.
There were still more than 30 seconds left in the countdown. If he moved his feet away, the bomb would explode prematurely. The only way to prevent the explosion was to cut off the explosive line. Luo Jiu took out a paper clip, opened the line behind the timer, hooked the yellow safety line and pulled it hard.
Beep——
The timer stopped counting down, and just as Luo Jiu was about to stand up, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared behind him.
Its wings fluttered slightly, and the antennae on top swayed back and forth, as if it was looking at her like a human.
Luo Jiu held her breath. She was the only one here at this moment. She couldn't think too much. She had to go with the big guy. At most, she would injure one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of her own. She would be buried in this unknown cave with the monster.
She silently took out the rocket launcher, ready to fight the monster to the death. Seeing the shadow behind her stretching out its giant claws towards her, Luo Jiu turned around and turned on the safety. Just as her fingertips touched the launcher, she suddenly heard the "monster" speak human words, "Second mother, what are you doing?"
"Fubao!" Luo Jiu was overjoyed and quickly turned on the safety.
Fubao was also very happy. When the two met, they shook hands excitedly, with thousands of words coming to their minds.
Luo Jiu saw that Fu Bao was dressed very strangely, in a combat uniform with two large wings of strange insects tied on his back, and a helmet on his head with two monster tentacles stuck crookedly on it.
This crude imitation and its body shape are very different from the monster. It was only because of the shadow that it looked so realistic. A flood almost washed away the Dragon King Temple. It was like one family fighting against one's own family.
Luo Jiu hurriedly asked: "Why are you dressed like this?"
Fu Bao chuckled, "These strange insects have poor eyesight. I dressed like this and patrolled nearby. When I shrank back, they couldn't recognize me."
"patrol?"
"Yes, it's a long story. After falling here, I found that I couldn't enter the space. I saw that Third Mother was injured, and she vomited as soon as she opened her eyes.
There were so many monsters in there, and it was inconvenient for me to take her with me to fight, but I was afraid that she would get hurt. So I found a cave, killed the monsters, and arranged for Sanma to go in and rest.
I knew you would come to pick us up, so I'll just stay here alone.
I waited and waited until I was hungry, so I quickly ate two meals. I found the delicious vegetables that grandma had stockpiled, poured them into the rice bowl and mixed them together. It was so delicious that I ate half of the bowl in one go..."
Fubao was so happy that she kept talking about it. Luo Jiu couldn't help but interrupt her and said, "Speak to the point."
"Ah? The main point?" Fu Bao thought for a moment, "I ate the bamboo shoots and ham stewed wild duck, and I left some for you."
Luo Jiu burst out laughing, "The point is, where is your third mother now?"
"Oh, you mean Third Mother." Fubao scratched her head with an awkward smile. She thought the point was whether or not any food was left for them.
Fubao pointed to the narrowest fork in the road and said, "Third Mama is lying in here. Be careful. I installed a time bomb at the door to prevent monsters."
Luo Jiu: "I know. It almost blew me up just now. I dismantled it."
"That's good." Fubao had just taken a step inside when the dripping sound started again.
Fu Bao paused, "How many did you just dismantle?"
Luo Jiu: “One.”
Fubao: "But I installed two."
Luo Jiu handed her the paper clip and said, "You haven't forgotten how to open it, right?"
“Yes.”
"Then you can take it down yourself. I'll go in and see your third mother first."
"good."
Luo Jiu walked in quickly with a lamp in hand and saw Cheng Yaoyao lying weakly on a camp bed with an IV in her arm.
Cheng Yaoyao heard the noise and was trying to get up. When she saw Luo Jiu, she didn't have time to say anything and started vomiting into the trash can beside her.
Luo Jiu hurriedly said, "Hurry up and lie down! You have a concussion, you need to lie down and rest for a few days."
Cheng Yaoyao rinsed her mouth, nodded slightly, and said softly: "The crack in the ground was too narrow. I hit the back of my head when I landed. I felt bad at the time. When I came down, I encountered a few big bugs. Fortunately, Fubao carried me and escaped here. By the way, where is Fubao?"
Luo Jiu: "Fubao she..."
As the two were talking, they heard a loud "bang".
