Chapter 100: Endless Darkness
Everyone lowered the torches in their hands, it turned out that the reflective things I saw just now were all diamonds, and the ground in this hall was full of diamonds.
The women completely forgot about our current situation for a moment, and bent down to pick up the diamonds on the ground.
I didn't stop it, but I was absolutely wrong, because something seemed to be watching us in the darkness.
I raised the torch and took a few steps forward, John and Paul followed, Ye Beichen had already put the torch on the ground and raised the bow in his hand.
He must have felt it too.
I don't know where the temple came from, but I know that something as precious as a diamond could not just be left on the ground, and there must be something hidden in it.
And it's such a huge number of diamonds, scattered everywhere like this.
The further I went, the less confident I felt in my heart, because there was nothing but darkness, and it was still darkness.
"Make a fire. I whispered.
John and Paul quickly unloaded the firewood from their horses, and we lit a pile of firewood at intervals.
I was able to see something inside the temple clearly, and suddenly I felt something flash not far ahead.
I hurriedly stopped the laughter of the women.
"Don't make a sound. I said in a deep voice.
The women, who were still happy with the diamond in their hands, came back to their senses and were stunned in place.
"Continue to light fires around. I said to John and Paul.
Although the two of them don't have the same perception as me, the weirdness in this can be detected by everyone, except for the women who are blinded by diamonds.
John and Paul quickly raised a fire around them, small but growing in number, and the visual distance of the temple became farther and farther away.
But even so, you still can't see the edge, or even the roof, and it stands to reason that with such a huge internal space, it looks like the building should not be able to see the edge from the outside.
But it didn't look good from the outside, but I couldn't see the edge from the inside, and I stood there a little panicked, and even a little overwhelmed.
I'm pretty sure there's something in there, but I can't perceive it, the blackface can't sense it, the only thing I can perceive is danger.
"Don't panic, calm down. Ye Beichen appeared behind me at some point and said softly.
As he spoke, he patted me lightly on the shoulder, and my mood eased a little.
I saw Ye Beichen take out a rag, quickly wrap it around the arrow, put it on the fire and ignite it, and shot it directly above the main hall.
I looked up with the rocket, and there seemed to be many floors above the hall, and there seemed to be something moving around it.
When Ye Beichen's arrow stopped moving forward, it was already the top of the hall dozens of meters away, and he didn't expect that there was such a thing in this hall, it looked ordinary on the outside, but the space inside seemed to have been extended.
At this time, the women did not dare to pay attention to the diamonds anymore, and came to us one after another, looking left and right in fear.
"There's something in there. Ye Beichen said.
"I feel it. I said.
"These diamonds are probably the bait. Ye Beichen said.
The women listened to our conversation and hurriedly threw the diamonds they were holding far away.
I suddenly felt the pressure above my head and laughed a lot, but just as I was about to relax, I heard the sound of something falling to the ground not far ahead.
It didn't look like a dead thing, or a rock, or something like that, because it was more like the sound of your feet hitting the ground, and judging by the sound, it was not small.
I didn't dare to attack indiscriminately after suffering the baboon's loss, I took two steps forward, blocking in front of everyone, my hand on the hilt of my sword, ready to strike a fatal blow at the thing in front of me.
Unless it's a bull ghost and snake god, I'm sure I'll kill it.
"It's coming. I screamed in my heart.
Because I heard footsteps, loud footsteps, the sound was very calm, not fast, but it made me feel stressed.
Cold sweat began to break out on my forehead, and I could already see some remnants of it in the light of the fire, but I still couldn't see it.
At last the thing came out of the darkness, but as if afraid of the fire, it stopped three or four paces from the fire.
I subconsciously swallowed my cigarette, which was caused by nervousness, because the thing in front of me was actually a white-haired gorilla.
To be honest, I'm not sure if it's an orangutan, because it walks upright, and it's undoubtedly the same height as me, but it's much thicker than me.
I say he's a gorilla because it looks a little similar to a gorilla, and it's all covered in white hair, and the muscles on its chest are high and bulging, and it looks full of strength.
"We have no ill will. I said to the gorilla.
But it didn't give me any response, Chinese and English, I tried it all, and it's still the same.
Finally I said it again in alien words: "We have no ill will. ”
Who would have thought, I didn't say it's okay, as soon as my alien Wen came out, that guy went berserk at once, waving his fists and slapping his chest.
There was a constant roar in his mouth, and for a while there was a constant sound of something falling around us, and there was no need to think about it, we must be surrounded by these guys.
"What to do, we seem to be surrounded. The women's voices trembled.
"Don't panic, they're afraid of fire. I whispered.
"But the firewood won't last long. Qiu Xue said.
When she said that, I was really in a bit of a difficult situation, and I had to think of a way out quickly.
"This place is so big, there must be a hiding place. Ye Beichen said.
"Blackface, it's all up to you. I thought to myself.
Blackface yelled at me and slowly began to move to the right.
Everyone took the torches and formed a circle and followed the black face. I said to the crowd.
At this time, even the air froze, and no one dared to speak, because in the darkness we could see a pair of bright eyes, staring at us closely.
As soon as we walked a short distance, the small fire behind us began to go out, followed by the sound of dense footsteps.
Everyone walked on thin ice with every step, and I could even hear the heartbeat of the crowd, and the roar of the orangutans was constantly heard around me, and sometimes I felt that the voice was right in front of me.
The small fire behind him had been extinguished, and the horned zebra that everyone was holding in their hands had become breathless.
"Ahh
I hurriedly stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Horses, horses were dragged away, my hands. Xia He said with a crying voice.
"Leave the horse alone, wait and deal with it, and then go. I said in a deep voice.
I was nervous, although Xia He was so frightened that I couldn't express it clearly, I could speculate what was going on, it must have been the white-haired orangutan who grabbed her horse, and the reins wore out her hand.
There is nothing strange about this understanding, but it is this that makes me nervous, what kind of strength the white orangutan must have to catch the not too small horned zebra in an instant, and the horned zebra disappeared into the darkness before it could even scream.
"Everybody counts. Ye Beichen said.
"One, two, three, four... XII, XIV. The crowd whispered in turn.
"Who shouted more? We're thirteen people, re-report. Ye Beichen said.
Fortunately, Ye Beichen's calmness supported the scene, otherwise I would really mess up here.
"I'm sorry, I shouted it wrong. Xia He said in a trembling voice.
"Re-count, hurry. Ye Beichen urged.
"One, two, thirteen. The people spoke in turn.
My scalp was numb, if there was one more person suddenly, my heart really couldn't stand it, but fortunately, this time I listened carefully to everyone's voice, and it should have been Xia He's nervous report just now.
The feeling of oppression around me became stronger and stronger, because the torches in our hands were almost extinguished, and I didn't dare to stop at this time, and my heart was about to despair.
At this moment, the scene in front of me finally changed slightly, no longer the endless darkness, and finally saw the wall, and there was a huge stone door on the wall.
I hurriedly established my perception with Blackface and determined that inside the door was where Blackface was going to take us.
"Hurry up, everybody, we'll be safe when we enter that door. I said in a deep voice.
Seeing that the torch in his hand was already weak, the last person finally stepped into the door.
Ye Beichen quickly flashed to the side, I didn't know what he was going to do, but out of trust, I directly inserted the torch at the door, took off the bow on my back, and aimed the arrow at the darkness outside the door.
