Chapter 61: The Tree Cave
I was also extremely surprised in my heart, not to mention that I didn't have much strength just now, even if I used all my strength, it was impossible to knock down a big tree in the sky with a whip, then I wouldn't be a strong man!
I told my junior brother not to talk nonsense, let's go over and see. Take a closer look, heh, this big tree is actually hollow, no wonder it falls down as soon as it is pumped! There seems to be a deep hole under the tree hole, and the naked eye can't see through the bottom at all.
At this time, the junior brother squatted down, pointed to the bottom of the tree hole and said, "Senior brother, look, there seem to be stones down here!" I also squatted down, taking advantage of the sunlight shining in through the gaps in the leaves, squinted my eyes for a while, and sure enough, about ten meters down from the tree hole, I saw a circle of gray-white stone walls, and after a closer look, I found that there were traces of water erosion on it.
I guessed, "It's like...... It's an abandoned well. However, it is a strange thing that such a hollow tree can be planted at the mouth of a well, and after such a long time without being discovered, the tree can grow so luxuriantly. ”
The junior brother thought for a moment and said: "Senior brother, such a strange thing can be bumped into by our brothers, which means that this is God's arrangement in the dark, otherwise, let's go down and take a look, maybe there is something even more incredible down here!" ”
I know that my junior brother is still remembering the matter I told about the bronze armory, this Qinling is really too evil, and the underground is even more inexplicable, once it goes down, it is no longer within the control of manpower, in case of any messy things again, I don't know if there will be that luck to come back alive at that time. Thinking about it, I got up and said, "Let's still find the little master, don't make any extraneous branches." ”
Seeing that my junior brother was still not giving up, I hooked my head, and most of my body had already leaned down, so I hurriedly bent down and pressed his shoulder, and said: "Besides, we don't have any tools at hand now, it's so dark down here, and I don't know where the bottom is, and whether there is water in it, so it will definitely not work if we go down so rashly." And at the very least, we don't even have a rope, so we can't just jump down. As I spoke, I subconsciously hid the half of the rattan in my hand behind my butt.
When the junior brother heard this, he touched his hands under the clothes behind his back, and he actually found a black waist bag, after opening it, I was immediately dumbfounded, and almost didn't bite off my tongue, this damn thing, it's almost in Doraemon's pocket, two small wolf-eye flashlights, a row of spare batteries, three safety locks, a bundle of safety ropes, a lighter, a folding multi-functional military dagger, a candle, and a pair of lady's black leather gloves, and a mirror.
I asked my junior brother, "Where did you get this bag?" The junior brother smiled: "Miss Swallow borrowed it." ”
I raised my eyebrows: "Borrowed?" The junior brother hurriedly avoided my eyes, set up the safety rope and lock, and said vaguely: "En...... Anyway, let's return it to her when we run out......" The junior brother's movements were extremely fast, and while he was talking, he had already set up a rope, buckled the flashlight on the belt, and beckoned to me: "Senior brother, I'll go down first to see, what the hell is calling you." Before I could react, my junior brother was short and had already slid down several meters.
This stinky boy, I can't stop him anymore, so I can only lie on the stump and use a flashlight to light him as much as possible, and ask him to report to me at any time.
The junior brother sank to a place of about fifty meters and shouted below: "Senior brother, you're right, this is really a fucking well, but it's almost done!" ”
I asked him, "Got it, are you there now?" The younger brother said, "Not yet, but it feels like it's getting sooner, because there is wind below, and there seem to be other passages." I said, "Got it, stay safe!" After another five minutes, the junior brother shouted below: "Senior brother, what the hell is me, you come down!" ”
The sound back here sounded very hollow, and there were echoes, and it looked like there were other passages down there. I tugged at the rope, still tight, and shouted hard, "Okay, don't move yet, let go of the rope, and I'll go down!" ”
After two or three seconds, the voice of the junior brother came up: "I let go, you come down quickly!" ”
I was stunned in my heart, and a cool breath subconsciously came out of my back, this is not right, the rope in my hand is clearly still tight, and I can't pull it, is it that something is stumbling in the middle? Thinking about it, I pulled it hard again, at this time, the end of the rope suddenly loosened, caught off guard, and fell to me on all fours, I scolded, sat up and looked, by the way, the rope was actually torn off!
At this time, the ethereal voice of the junior brother came from below: "Senior brother, have you come down?" I shook my head, leaned over and shouted, "No, the rope is broken!" Now what's going on with you below? ”
The junior brother scolded: "Damn, that little girl's things just don't bear fruit!" Wait a minute...... it, then you just jump off! ”
I was stunned in my heart, damn, seventy or eighty meters, what is the difference between this and suicide? But after thinking about it, the junior brother would never harm me, and then asked, "Is there water down there?" ”
The junior brother said: "No, but senior brother, you will know when you come down, I also just found it, and it should still be usable." ”
My mind had already turned seven or eight times by this time, and if it wasn't water, what could save a person's life when they fell from a height of seventy or eighty meters? Could it be that there is an inflatable cushion underneath? No matter, just die! I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and jumped, only to feel the cool breeze blowing straight towards my face, and if the wind was stronger, it would be disfigured directly.
I counted in my heart, after about four seconds, my body was numb, and suddenly it was intercepted by something like a sheet, and after rebounding up about half a meter, the body fell up again, this time, my feeling was very clear, I had guessed the true face of this thing, opened my eyes and looked, it was indeed a safety net.
I didn't expect that there was a safety net under this dry well, and I don't know who built it, but looking at the appearance of this net, it seems to be quite new, and the elasticity is also good. I stood up and found that there was still space under the safety net, not the bottom of the well, I took a flashlight and shone it down, and it was bright and shiny underneath, as if it was water, and I wondered in my heart, how is this different from what my brother described?
My junior brother has been sticking to the stone wall since I came down, staring at me blankly without saying a word, the flashlight on my waist flickered on and off, as if it was about to run out of power, I felt very strange in my heart, could it be that my junior brother had fallen into some evil? According to his temper, there could simply be no quiet time.
I shouted, "Senior brother? I was about to go over to take a look, but at this moment, my neck suddenly hurt, as if I had been whipped by a whip, and when I turned my head to see that it was a safety rope, a person was snorting down from the rope, only to hear him scold: "You fucking ...... Didn't you say you wouldn't come down? , don't even say hello...... Just jump down, I thought you wanted to ...... I can't think about it! Hey, brother...... So soon? ”
