Chapter 151: Lethe River
After the six bodyguards went down to the bottom of the cave and made sure that there was no danger below, the Yan family brothers and sisters and Master Wu also followed separately.
"Mr. Lu, the protection has been done. ”
After checking the safety equipment on Lu Chen's body, a bodyguard nodded and signaled that he could go down.
Lu Chen held on to the wall of the cave with his hand and slowly slid down the safety rope.
The interior of this cave is as narrow in the front and wide in the back as the previous camera robot shots. The front 300 meters was so narrow that he could only pass alone, but at the back, it suddenly opened up, and the speed of descent was much faster.
By the time Lu Chen arrived at the bottom of the cave, the Yan family brothers and sisters had already been waiting here for a long time.
"How's it going, isn't it fun?
After seeing Lu Chen come down, Yan Tong asked with a hippie smile.
"It's a bit exciting, it's not for me. ”
Lu Chen shook his head, maybe Ye Qingyun would like the thrilling extreme sport of downhill, but he, thank you.
When the men arrived, they began to march into the cave.
Lu Chen and Master Wu, plus two bodyguards, walked in the front, the Yan family brothers and sisters were in the center of the team, and four bodyguards were in charge of the back of the hall.
After a short time, everyone walked to the pile of white bones, Lu Chen squatted down, and after carefully examining the corpses, he frowned and shook his head: "This white bone is very complete, not even a finger bone is missing, and there are no scars on it, as well as the marks of wild beast bites, it looks like the bones of a normal person after death." ”
"That's not right, according to the big apprentice, didn't his master have an accident? There are still claw marks of fierce beasts on the remnants of the robes......
Yan Tong asked with a puzzled expression.
Lu Chen turned his head and glanced at Master Wu, and both of them saw the heavy puzzled look on each other's faces.
Although this corpse looks normal, it is actually full of mysteries, the old feng shui master has been attacked by an unknown beast, and there will definitely be scars on his body, but this corpse is undamaged, is it not the bones of the old feng shui master?
If it weren't for the old feng shui master, then who would this corpse be?
"You say, is it possible that the person who died here could be someone else?"
Yan Tong licked his somewhat dry lips and asked Lu Chen in a low voice.
"It seems that everyone has doubts, so why don't you let me test it. ”
As he spoke, Lu Chen took out the missing compass in his backpack and placed it in front of the bones.
After a while, the missing compass trembled slightly, although the amplitude was small, but it was still noticed under the attention of everyone.
"Ordinary ritual weapons will leave the mark of the master in the long-term communication with the master. This compass can tremble, which proves that this corpse is indeed the old feng shui master's. ”
After Lu Chen put the compass away, he said in a deep voice.
"Forget it, don't think about it, it hurts my brain. ”
Yan Tong covered his head and complained a little: "Anyway, the purpose of our trip is the earth dragon marrow, as long as we get the earth dragon marrow, everything will be OK." ”
When Lu Chen and Master Wu heard this, they had to nod helplessly, there are too few materials for reference now, so let's continue to move forward.
So, everyone continued to move forward, and after walking for nearly ten minutes, they finally saw the camera robot that had been put down earlier. Not far from the robot is the huge dark lake that blocks the way.
"Is this an underground lake? Why does it look strange?"
Yan Tong was like a curious baby, and after taking a flashlight at the lake, he asked a little strangely.
Lu Chen, Master Wu and the others also looked at the lake in the strong light, and their faces became extremely solemn.
The water in this lake is exactly the same as what I saw in the video before, red and yellow, even with a strong flashlight, it can only illuminate a depth of more than ten centimeters, and cannot reach the bottom of the lake.
"This ...... This is the water of the Lethe River!"
Master Wu leaned down, observed for a while, and then exclaimed loudly.
"Lethe River?"
When the brothers and sisters of the Yan family heard this, their faces immediately showed doubts.
With the support of his bodyguards, Master Wu straightened up, and then said with a solemn face: "In Chinese myths and stories, after a person dies, he has to pass through the Ghost Gate Pass and go to the underworld through Huangquan Road. And here between Huangquan Road and Hades, it is divided by the Lechuan River. The water of the Lechuan River is blood-yellow, and it is full of lonely souls and wild ghosts that cannot be reincarnated, full of insects and snakes, and the fishy wind blows in the face......"
Everyone looked down and took a closer look, to be exact, the lake water was really red and yellow, and if you got closer, you could still taste a faint smell of blood.
"I'm going to put a little water out of the lake in a cup, and we'll analyze it. ”
Yan Tong didn't know where to find a cup, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to go to the lake to get water.
"Don't Mess ......"
At this moment, Lu Chen directly stretched out his hand and grabbed him, shook his head and said: "This Lechuan River is extremely weird, full of dangers, it must not be underestimated, if you don't want your sister to burn paper for you this time next year, it is better to stay away." ”
"What are you doing cursing me for? Am I not doing this with good intentions? Get some water, let's study how to cross the river!"
As soon as Yan Tong heard this, he was immediately unhappy.
Lu Chen didn't pay attention to him at all, but said to Yan Meng and the others: "You wait for me here for a while, and I'll be back immediately." ”
So saying, he followed the path from which everyone had come, and turned back again.
"What's wrong with him? ”
Seeing this, Yan Tong raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfied.
"Okay, brother, you can say a few words. ”
Yan Meng shook her head speechlessly, her brother was good at everything, but he talked too much, and somehow, the relationship with Lu Chen was getting worse and worse.
It didn't take long for Lu Chen to run back, still carrying a dead rabbit in his hand.
As soon as Yan Tong saw this rabbit, he was immediately happy, this was accidentally caught by a bodyguard when they were eating in the morning. However, his sister couldn't bear to eat it, so she took the initiative to dig a pit and bury it, but she didn't expect it to be dug out again.
Yan Meng had a small face, her expression was slightly displeased, she had already buried the cute rabbit, why did Lu Chen bring the rabbit back?
Master Wu seemed to know Lu Chen's intentions, and kept smiling from beginning to end without saying anything.
Lu Chen walked straight to the lake, and then carefully poked the rabbit into the lake, and after a while, the lake water seemed to be boiling, and bubbles suddenly bubbled. And the moment the bubble is burst, the smell is fishy and smelly, like a fish that has rotted for many days.
After soaking the dead rabbit for a few seconds, he hurriedly took it out again, and everyone looked up at the rabbit in his hand, and they all gasped.
The rabbit that was still fur just now was left with half of it, and the half that was soaked in the lake had already been corroded to the point that only white bones remained. The stark contrast between the upper and lower sections has a visual impact on everyone, not to mention how big it is.
