Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

This tunnel actually leads directly to the underground palace!

Seeing the scene in front of them clearly, everyone was shocked!

This is their ultimate goal, and I didn't expect to arrive so quickly.

Previous experience in exploring legendary ancient tombs. Such tombs are often intricate, with one tomb connected to another.

Not only are each tomb filled with all kinds of strange traps, but the tombs are also very long, and just exploring them will take days and nights.

But they never thought that they had just passed through two corridors and arrived in front of the underground palace.

The appearance of the underground palace made everyone excited, but also filled with a sense of uneasiness.

Because now they not only smell strange smells, but also hear strange sounds one after another.

"Hee hee hee."

It sounded a bit like human laughter, echoing in the empty basement, and it was a bit permeable.

Xu Ning felt horrified when he heard this voice and took a step back unconsciously.

Lin Ran handed a torch to Xu Ning.

"If you're afraid, just hold a torch."

Unlike flashlights, torches not only provide lighting, but also provide some warmth.

Under the warm firelight, some fear will dissipate a little.

Xu Ning naturally did as he was told and felt better holding the torch.

Moreover, the light from the torch was relatively concentrated, and the top of the grotto was illuminated by the firelight.

At first, everyone didn't notice it, but under the light of the torch, they saw the scene on the top of the grotto, and they couldn't help but feel numb.

Lin Ran finally knew what was eating so many rats.

Hanging on the top of the grotto are densely packed leeches!

The thickest ones were as thick as fists, and their tails were stuck to the rocks, while their heads began to hang down, as if they would attack the creatures below at any time.

No matter how courageous Lin Ran and others were, they could not help but feel chills running down their spines when they saw the pile of locusts.

They stood in a circle with their backs to the siege, and all raised their heads.

Point your flashlight and torch at the ceiling.

"This amount is too terrifying!" Wang Jinpeng couldn't help but cursed.

Looking around, the entire top of the grotto is occupied by leeches.

Not to mention the thought of being absorbed into the body and sucking blood, the amount alone can make people feel that trypophobia is about to attack.

"Come on!"

Lin Ran looked up. He didn't know whether the leeches were afraid of the flames or were sleeping, so they did not attack them directly.

Now is the perfect time to leave.

Everyone couldn't help but quicken their pace.

Only Wang Jinpeng looked at it curiously. This leech was different from the ones he usually saw in the fields. The mouthparts alone were extremely scary, like a demonic insect from hell, full of teeth.

Being bitten by this thing would be serious.

Mountain Leech.

Also known as the Blood Drop, it is a terrifying creature that lives in the mountains and feeds on the flesh and blood of mammals.

They have extremely strong vitality, and what’s even more frightening is that because they live in a moist and dark environment for a long time, their mouths are full of viruses.

If one is bitten, it can range from fever and body convulsions to severe internal organ failure and death.

It is extremely dangerous to encounter this kind of creature in an ancient tomb.

No wonder there are a lot of rat carcasses. After all, to feed so many leeches, it is inappropriate not to have a rat colony.

Lin Ran and others quickened their pace and had to leave this terrible place quickly.

However, the leech's attack has quietly begun.

Some leeches have given up clinging to the stone wall and begun to fall.

It almost fell on Guan Yun's head. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged the leech.

After the leech lands, step on it.

In an instant, the leech's body was crushed, revealing golden liquid.

Lin Ran shouted to everyone: "Put the bag up and cover it over your head!"

Leeches had begun to rain down.

When there is no way to avoid it, the most important thing is to avoid the first wave of attacks.

Their backpacks are all specially processed, elastic leather bags.

The leech landed on it and was bounced away.

However, some leeches are very tenacious and stick to the backpack. They seem to regard the backpack as an attack target and directly attach their mouthparts to it.

Huang Hao had the worst luck. The largest number of leeches landed on his bag, and leeches began to slide down the backpack behind him.

When he was scared to death, Wang Jinpeng pushed the backpack off his head and pulled him under his own bag.

The backpack can only be used as a temporary umbrella and is not a perfect defensive barrier.

Fortunately, their movement speed was not too slow, and they had already escaped to the other side of the grotto with just a few movements.

Looking back, leeches fell from the ceiling like rain.

They were indeed sleeping just now, otherwise Lin Ran and the others would have been drowned by the rain of leeches without any time to react.

Everyone rushed to the end, only a few leeches were still on the bag.

They had no choice but to throw their bags on the ground and trample the leech to death.

Some leeches were still not convinced and wanted to fight back with their big mouths.

But Liu Jingfeng and the others have long been accustomed to dealing with all kinds of monsters in ancient tombs, and they show no mercy at all.

One after another, the leeches became dead souls underfoot.

They were relieved until they confirmed that there were no living leeches on the bag.

But they didn't have much time to relax.

After passing through the grotto of more than twenty meters, an underground space appeared in front of them.

He raised his head and looked up. He was dozens of meters away from them and couldn't see his head at a glance.

But fortunately, there shouldn't be any leeches falling down from the top. If they fall from this height, they will definitely die.

Liu Jingfeng gasped and said, "No, we have to find a place to rest."

The others nodded in approval.

Because after the life-threatening run just now, and the air in the tomb was actually not very good, everyone felt a little uncomfortable.

Lin Ran and the others walked forward for a while and crossed a stone bridge. Seeing that leeches were not good at crawling and tracking on the ground, they decided to rest here for a while.

"I didn't expect that there would be so many mountain leeches here." Liu Jingfeng said, "When we were children, we would catch them and eat them."

"Haha, boss, are you willing to swallow this stuff?" Wang Jinpeng couldn't help laughing.

"There's nothing you can't do when you're hungry." Liu Jingfeng closed his eyes.

"Well, maybe we can use them as emergency ingredients." Lin Ran joked.

Although the mountain leeches are scary, they are nothing compared to the monsters they encountered in the legendary tombs before.

In ancient tombs, there are always some unpredictable dangers.

This time they were lucky, because the strange laughter caught their attention, which was coming from the leech.

Lin Ran felt that he had to be more vigilant. Qianling was much more difficult than expected.

Moreover, the underground palace is right in front of you.

Is the destination really so easy to reach?

Lin Ran felt that things were not that simple.
