Chapter 183 Magic Baby
Chapter 183: Demonic Infant
As soon as I heard the strange chewing sound, I immediately got goose bumps. In such a gloomy and dark environment, this strange sound seemed even more terrifying and creepy. Although I had guessed that the person who made this sound must be the blood demon, I still couldn't help but shiver, and I always felt that the owner of this sound was not as simple as an ordinary blood demon.
My bearded man and I looked at each other, then turned around at the same time, and shot the light column of the flashlight towards the corner where the sound was made. When I saw it, I was shocked and even the bearded man who had always been calm shook his body and took a step back half a step in surprise.
At the corner of the wall, there were three strange creatures sitting in a ball. They were very short and they probably couldn't reach my waist when they stood up. But their belly was extremely large, almost twice as big as their entire body. And their bodies were shining red, not their original skin color, but because their skin was soaked with blood.
With the reflection of the light, I could see their faces clearly. It turned out that they were three babies, but because of their special appearance, they looked more like ghosts in the underworld. They had big heads and small bodies, strange eyes, and had a big mouth that was grinning under their ears. In that mouth, they were covered with fangs, and even a normal tooth did not exist.
All three demon babies sat on the ground with their legs, muttering their mouths, chewing bloody flesh. In the middle of them was a fragmented body that was torn to pieces, with little left of arms and thighs, and only a few bloody bones were thrown aside.
At this moment, they were holding the internal organs of the body and chewing heavily. I could tell that the creepy chewing sound just now came from their mouths.
But this is not the most shocking thing. Outside their circle, there is a female corpse and a pile of skeletons. Judging from the costumes of the corpse, it is exactly the same as the twelve blood demons we have encountered before. The same is a woman, with a pair of blood and four fangs, wearing silk and satin, and wearing jewelry all over her head.
The female corpse's belly was broken, her internal organs were dragged all over the ground, and the two rooms had been gnawed. She lay on the ground with her eyes wide open, with no sign of life at all, and was obviously completely dead.
The pile of bones were all skeletons of the human body, scattered in a pile, including two complete human heads. One of them was the head of the female blood demon, and the other... was the head of the face-changing blood demon.
In addition, there was another pile of skeletons slightly closer. The difference was that the head of the corpse was also smashed and left to eat. Except for a scalp with hair that was thrown aside, the rest was almost eaten. From the clothes next to the skeleton, it was confirmed that it was Ding Yi's corpse. I didn't expect that this person had become like this. Not long ago, he was a living person breathing. After only a while, he turned into a pool of white bones and was abandoned in this cold ghost cave.
This completely confused me. What are these three demon babies? Judging from the situation at the scene, the pile of skeletons and the female corpse should be all blood demons, and the corpse they were gnawing also had a female head rolling aside. If nothing unexpected happens, the corpse is also a blood demon. Could it be that... these blood demons were killed by them? Then they were eaten by them?
Looking at their belly that was about to be broken, I knew that my guess was correct. But there were still a few questions that puzzled me, where did these demon babies come from? Why do they feed on blood demons? Could it be that there is a food chain among the blood demons? These blood demons who are extremely capable and can almost call the wind and rain will be eaten by several infant-like monsters? But why did they not resist? If they resist, we should have heard some fighting movements. Could it be that... these blood demons were voluntarily eaten by these demon babies?
The storyteller is long. In fact, this series of thoughts was completed just the moment I witnessed this scene. When the light shone on the faces of the three demon babies, they immediately became alert and looked at us along the light source. At the same time, they threw down the broken flesh in their hands, grinned and showed a sharp teeth, dragged their huge belly, and crawled towards us very slowly.
I have never seen such a terrifying scene. Although my psychological quality has improved a lot, looking at the cold and cruel eyes of the demon babies and their blood vessel-covered grimaces, I suddenly felt a creepy chill slowly coming. My feet were nailed to the ground and my whole body was trembling, and even my brain became a little dull.
The bearded man didn't know the background of these demon babies, so he didn't dare to go forward and attack easily. He quickly grabbed my arm and whispered: "Get out quickly, don't fight with this thing first."
I finally came to my senses and hurriedly ran out of the door with the bearded man, and waved to the prince and others repeatedly, signaling them to leave quickly and that I could not stay in the tomb room any longer.
The rest of the people naturally saw the appearance of those demon babies. Just based on their terrifying appearance, they could determine that this monster was not a good person. Without our urging, they immediately turned around and met with me and the big bearded man outside the tomb door.
After running out of the door, we saw that the three demon babies did not chase them out immediately. We knew that it was because their belly was too big and they were quite inconvenient to move, so their walking speed would be greatly reduced.
Taking this opportunity, we quickly discussed a few words. First of all, we can be sure that these three demon babies were born from the banshee in the three coffins. For some reason, they ate their mother and the blood demon who changed their face as soon as they were born. Why did the blood demon who had been sleeping for thousands of years give birth at this time? We can't figure out why the blood demon who had been sleeping for thousands of years gave birth at this time. However, judging from past experiences and on-site situations, the three banshees should have been resurrected after eating Ding Yi's body, and the fetus in their wombs revived. The demon baby might have to eat raw flesh and blood as soon as he left the mother's body, but no one can eat it at this moment, so he treated his mother as food, and the blood demon who had been running for a long time to save them. Its mission was completely completed.
The bearded man asked all of us to retreat to the stone bridge, and he and Ding Er were enough to stay. The demon fetus was really weird and tight. As soon as it landed, it was eaten by the biological mother. Its cruelty was far more than that of an ordinary blood demon. But no matter what, this thing must be removed. If you start to take care of the poor, the Ji brothers and sisters were the biggest weakness.
I shook my head, tried to make myself more awake, and then silently calculated in my heart.
We have walked through eight of the nine stone bridges in the hall of Jiuqiao. The buildings at the end are: the Blood Pond Cave, the Nightmare Stone Tomb, the Emperor Butterfly Room, the Snake Room, the main tomb with five coffins, the auxiliary tomb with fifteen coffins, the empty sacrificial room, and the staircase leading to the exit. There is also a room we have not found, but it seems that there is no need at this time.
The murals in the main tomb show that the four face-changing blood demons worshipped the Jiulong King, namely the butterfly, the snake monster, the red flower, and the nightmare stone. Among these four things, three storage places are all in the Jiuqiao Hall, and there is only one Manzhu Shahua we have not seen yet. If I infer that, the remaining room should be the room where the magic flowers are stored.
If this is true, it means that there is no danger in other places except this tomb. All the blood demons have died, and the remaining four have been eaten by these three demon babies. Even the face-changing blood demon with extraordinary abilities is no exception. In other words, if these three demon babies can be eliminated, the entire Jiuqiao Hall will be completely safe.
After understanding this section, I whispered to the bearded man: "Ding Er can no longer fight, let him and Minhui and the others back down. Bald man and I are here to accompany you."
The bearded man pondered slightly, looked at me with a little approval, then nodded and replied, "Okay."
While we were talking, the three demon babies had already staggered to the door. As soon as we saw us, a string of sticky saliva flowed out. Then they used their hands and feet together and staggered towards us.
I knew that there was not much time, so I asked Ji Wenhui to leave quickly, try to be as far away as possible, and just be able to barely see the situation here.
Ji Minhui knew that she would drag us down when she stayed here at this time, so she looked at me affectionately, biting her lower lip and showing her eyebrows. She wanted to speak several times, but she swallowed it back because of emotional excitement. Finally, she just said to me softly: "Be careful." As she said that, two lines of clear tears flowed down. Perhaps because she was afraid that I would have a burden of thought, she burst into tears and laughed, pursed her lips and added: "Don't show off, run away if you can't beat me." Then she wiped her tears and followed Ji Saner and Ding Er backwards.
I felt happy to see her tears in such a tense atmosphere. Looking at her graceful back, my desire for life increased a little.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the bearded man shouting in a deep voice: "Be careful!"
My heart tightened and I quickly turned around and saw that the three demon babies were all stopped five or six meters ahead and could not move. Their bodies were trembling and their eyes were rolling up. They didn't seem to attack us at all. Instead, they seemed extremely painful, as if something was tormenting them in their bodies.
The three of us were confused and didn't know what this reaction meant. Although we could attack each other by stepping forward at this time, these three monsters were too strange and mysterious. No one dared to act rashly for a moment. They could only watch their movements, fearing that this was a trick to lure the enemy.
The prince said a lot, and after so long, he couldn't hold it in. He pointed to the three demon babies and murmured, "What are these three little bastards playing with? I'm free when I'm free, I have to dance to the pili for us guys to see what's going on?"
