The children above immediately pulled him up again.

But the child below was so frightened that he tried to climb up with both hands on the rope, but he forgot that he still had a torch in his hand, and the torch lit the rope that pulled him, and he fell down again.

He cried down there, and his friends had to run to find the adults in his house. The adult couldn't get down the hole, and the child couldn't see the rope coming in from below, so he had no choice but to dig the hole a little wider and expand it to a width that could accommodate an adult.

The people in the village came to help and rescued the children, but they also found that the bottom of this cave was really different. There were many rooms down there, and some of them had some canned food, compressed biscuits and other food, and the villagers didn't care so much, they took out all these things and divided them.

But from that day on, there was a plague in the village, and groups of villagers died. The plague was so ferocious that it often took less than three days for people to die from the onset of their illness. At first, it was suspected that the illness was caused by eating food taken out of the cave, but many people who became ill at first did not eat the food at the bottom of the cave.

Soon the plague spread to the surrounding villages, and the villagers always fainted inexplicably, and then their bodies began to change color, and there was no visible wound on their bodies. The people who get sick all die at night, and the people who die are men, women, old and young, and irregularly.

Rumors began to circulate in the village that there were ghosts in the cave, and families closed their doors as soon as it was dark, and the number of dead people decreased somewhat, but people still died.

So in desperation, the village chief ran to the Tianqi Temple in the town to ask the master for help, the Tianqi Temple had long been dilapidated because of the war, and there was an old monk living in the temple. He listened to the words of the village chief and thought for a long time before he said:

"In this matter, I don't have the ability to subdue demons myself. But I can help you find someone, and if he happens to be nearby, he can come over and help you in the next two days!"

Hearing this, Yin Bing had already understood the general situation of the matter, there was a mysterious death of a villager in Niugang Village, which was beyond the traditional criminal investigation incident, but he didn't know how the old monk of Tianqi Temple contacted Tongcheng, so he sent Xingze to deal with this matter.

Yin Bing heard Xingze's voice and said, "Let's go, go to that cave and have a look." ”

Village Chief Niu looked embarrassed, "This ...... Archmage, that cave is behind the small ruined temple in the westernmost part of the village, and we dare not go there. I ......"

Xingze nodded and stood up, "I'll go over by myself." You're waiting for my news at home!"

"Archmage, be careful, it's evil there!"

Xingze raised his hand, counted it as a farewell, and walked out.

Yin Bing found that this Xingze didn't like to talk much, and he cherished words like gold when he spoke. Sure enough, it is very different from his own personality that is a bit talkative, no wonder Xingying said that he has changed a person.

Following Xingze's perspective to the small broken temple, the village chief Niu was right, this place is probably in disrepair and has long been dilapidated, and it is impossible to see that it is actually a temple.

Because it was a first-person perspective, Yin Bing couldn't see Xingze's face, he could only see Xingze wearing a pair of black leather boots, similar to a field uniform and pants tied in boots, which was very incompatible with the people in the whole village, but it really highlighted his difference.

He walked around to the backyard and saw at a glance the hole that had been enlarged, and a rope hung down from the hole. Xingze walked around the entrance of the cave a few times, took out a flashlight and jumped directly into the cave without using a rope.

Yin Bing's eyes darkened, and then they lit up immediately, and Xingze landed on the ground and turned on the flashlight in one go. Yin Bing finally saw the situation under the cave, and there were neat rows of rooms below, with cement floors and iron doors.

The words "underground military base" popped up in Yin Bing's mind, and this pattern, as well as the canned food, compressed biscuits, and other foods that the village chief had turned over before, all showed that this was once an underground military base, but who could it be? Yin Bing thought about it, and just now the village chief said that it was 1947, and he immediately understood that this should be left by the Japanese.

Xingze walked through the various rooms, and through his vantage point, he could see that he was observing very carefully, and he checked every corner, but he didn't find anything special. Yin Bing was a little puzzled, this place is now empty, there is nothing, maybe the sudden death of the people in the village has nothing to do with this underground military base?

In the blink of an eye, Xingze walked to the end of the road, where an iron gate stood in front of him. There was a large old-fashioned lock locked on the door, and if you looked closely, there were signs of prying on it, and it was clear that the villagers had tried to open it, but without success. Next, Yin Bing saw Xing Ze grab the big lock with his hand, pull it down with his hand, and the lock was directly opened.

If it weren't for Yin Bing's memories now, his jaw would have dropped in shock, and this hand would have been too strong. Xing Ze casually pushed open the door and walked in, there was only one room inside, and after opening it, Yin Bing was disappointed, it was no different from other rooms, except that it was a little bigger than the other rooms, and there was still nothing empty.

Walking in, Yin Bing noticed some dead butterflies on the ground, the corpses of those butterflies had been dried for a long time, and they had also lost their color, and Xingze's boots turned into dust as soon as he stepped on them. Yin Bing is a little strange, there are no windows here, where did the butterflies fly from, and there are so many, they all died in this room, it's really strange.

Xing Ze suddenly squatted down and pulled out a dagger, turning out something in the dust and butterfly corpses on the ground, and Yin Bing didn't recognize it at first. This thing is oval-shaped, seeing Xingze dialing it with a dagger, Yin Bing finally understood that it was a cocoon, and it was already empty, leaving only an empty skin sac.

Xingze found a few more empty cocoons, and then he collected the dagger and went out of the hole.

Yin Bing was still a little confused, he wanted to know what Xing Ze had seen, was there nothing suspicious in this cave. But now he can only passively watch all this, and he follows Xingze through the village. When he walked to a house in the middle of the village, he heard a faint cry, so he walked over.

Yin Bing also heard the voice, and when he saw the five coffins parked in the courtyard, he knew that this must be the family of five who died last night that Village Chief Niu said. I saw Xingze go straight to the coffin, and he didn't speak, but raised his hand to lift the lid of the coffin.

The surrounding relatives and neighbors stopped doing it, and they all raised their hands to stop them, "Who are you? What do you want to do?!"

Fortunately, Junko also crowded into the crowd to watch the excitement, and he shouted: "He is the archmage that grandpa found to help us!"

A middle-aged woman pressed the lid of the coffin and said: "Even if you are an archmage, you can't come up and lift the coffin, if you leak three lights, the dead will not be at peace, are you really a mage!"

As soon as her words came out, the villagers who had just stabilized a little bit said again: "Yes, are you really a mage, how can you lift the lid of the coffin in broad daylight!"

"You see that he doesn't dress like a monk or a Taoist priest, how can he be a mage?"

"Yes, yes, he's so young, he doesn't look like a master of the Dao, I'm afraid he's not here to cheat money, right?"

Yin Bing had a little headache when he heard this, these villagers didn't seem to trust Xing Ze very much, if he wanted to complete the task, he had to open the coffin for an autopsy, but the villagers definitely couldn't allow it, he wouldn't beat these villagers, right?

What should I do if this happens to me?
