Chapter 82: The sarcophagus
"What now!" I muttered.
"The boat is gone, we can't go back, we have to go forward and find a way. Zhou Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled me: "Brother Dong, you can hold on." ”
"You almost drowned me ...... just now. I said with a wry smile.
"I'm in a hurry, too. Zhou Zheng smiled.
"By the way, how do you know that the bat sucks blood?" I asked again.
"The monk has been bitten, and the bat must have sucked blood!" Zhou Zheng replied without thinking.
I am speechless Zhou Zheng's brain circuit, bats do not mean that they suck blood, the monk is a reaction made by the instinct of high mental tension, Zhou Zheng didn't even think about pulling me and jumped ship, but the boat capsized, if he is not so impulsive, maybe we can still keep the boat.
"Forget it, anyway, thanks. I sighed, it was really hard for me to say if I could climb ashore without Zhou Zheng in the water just now, so Zhou Zheng really saved me.
I looked around, it was pitch black, there was no movement in the river, and I didn't know if Tuye and the monk were still alive, thinking of the big fish in the water, I shook my head.
"Brother Dong, let's move forward, we can't stay here, look at those bats. Zhou Zheng reached over and grabbed me.
There is still a green point of light overhead, and the point of light is actually the eyes of the bats, and the light points on the top of the cave are dense, but there is no sound at all, and the darkness is always the world of bats.
"It must have been the monk's lamp that startled the bats just now, so let's go in the dark. Zhou Zheng grabbed my arm.
The two of us walked forward a little bit by holding on to the rock wall, because on land I didn't have to worry about the strange fish in the water, and I was halfway down. The soles of the feet have been uneven, a little slippery, we walked very carefully, the speed is also very slow, Zhou Zheng has been walking in front of the road, he has been holding my hand, although a little awkward but there is no way, it is too dark, in case it is troublesome.
"Zhou Zheng, if we can go back, how should we explain? There are so many people dead, and Yaoyao, Tu Ye can't go back, what should Yaoyao do?"
"Let's go back and talk about it, Brother Dong, don't think about it so much. Zhou Zheng replied.
“…… Also. I smiled wryly.
"I can't help you in this matter, and I didn't expect it to be like this, Brother Dong, you won't blame me. Zhou Zheng asked timidly.
"Forget it, it's all over. I sighed.
I did blame Zhou Zheng in my heart, but along the way, I also knew that Zhou Zheng had been taking care of me all the time, maybe because of his guilt, I couldn't blame him anymore.
"Brother Dong, the two of us are fateful, if we can ...... this time"
"Ahh
Then there was a strong force in my hand!
"Hey!" I screamed, and then I fell!
I was pulled by Zhou Zheng and fell together, we fell into a hole, like a road, we hugged each other and rolled and slid down!
"Plop!" we fell into the water!
Climbing up from the water, a light suddenly shot out of Zhou Zheng's head!
"Your headlamp is still there!" I cried out in surprise.
"Of course, I didn't dare to open it just now for fear of attracting bats. Zhou Zheng rubbed his buttocks: "One foot is empty, I'm sorry, Brother Dong." ”
I looked by the light, and we fell into another cave, and we landed in a small pool with many small vents in the rock wall, and we had just slipped down one of the small caves.
"It's troublesome, this cave is quite complicated, we don't have any equipment, and if we get lost, we will be miserable. I said in frustration.
"We've lost our way. Zhou Zheng said suddenly.
I was stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly, what Zhou Zheng said was right!
"Resign yourself to fate, God can't help us if you let us die!" Zhou Zheng looked at it quite openly.
"I don't want to die!" I snorted.
"If you don't want to die, just go!" Zhou Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed: "There is no other way, but to go forward." ”
This cave is full of stalactites, but as Zhou Zheng said, there are no other forks, so we can only go forward, otherwise we have to find a ventilation tunnel to drill.
Zhou Zheng walked away without the slightest hesitation, and I could only follow him.
With light, the situation is much better, the cave space is quite large, and there is no need to bend over, it is not difficult to walk, I don't count the time at all, I just follow Zhou Zheng numbly.
Walking and walking, Zhou Zheng suddenly stopped!
"Huh!"
Directly in front of us was a huge hollow with a huge rock in the center of the hole with a white rectangular object on it.
"What is it?" I observed.
"How does it look like a coffin!" Zhou Zheng blurted out.
I flattered it, and it was indeed like a coffin, a stone coffin!
"I'll take a look!" Zhou Zheng couldn't help but say that he was about to climb up.
"Wait!" I reached out and grabbed him.
"Who would put the coffin here?" I wondered.
"Whatever, let's see, maybe there's any treasure in there. Zhou Zheng said excitedly.
The rock was about three meters above the ground, and Zhou Zheng climbed up with great agility.
"What a coffin!" Zhou Zheng excitedly stretched out his hand to me: "You come up and take a look." ”
Zhou Zheng dragged me onto the rock, and when I got closer, I looked closely, it was indeed a sarcophagus, the workmanship was very rough, and the coffin lid was carved with some ornaments.
"Luckily, there must be a treasure in a coffin in this kind of place!" Zhou Zheng excitedly groped with his hands on the sarcophagus.
"Help, let's open it!" Zhou Zheng's hand pushed on the lid of the coffin.
"Wait!" I cried.
Seeing the sarcophagus, my mind suddenly flashed, this sarcophagus is somewhat familiar!
"Hurry up, help!" Zhou Zheng was already pushing hard.
"Panlong Island!" I suddenly thought, this sarcophagus is very similar to the one I have seen on Panlong Island!
"Click!" A few soft sounds, and the coffin lid was pushed by Zhou Zheng to react.
"I can't push it alone, why am I stunned!" Zhou Zheng opened his mouth to greet me.
"Don't open it!" I shouted.
"Why?" Zhou Zheng was stunned.
"I'm afraid there's nothing good in this coffin. I explained.
", how do you know if you don't look at it. Zhou Zheng didn't believe it at all.
My heart was pounding!
I found a sarcophagus similar to Panlong Island in the cave, I couldn't help but have a lot of associations, the experience of Panlong Island impressed me too much, what if there was also an insect master lying in this sarcophagus?
Curiosity rises irrepressibly!
"Brother Dong!" Zhou Zheng's voice interrupted my thoughts, and his face was already red.
"Okay, just take a look!" I gritted my teeth.
With the efforts of Zhou Zheng and me, the lid of the coffin was finally pried open by us.
