I didn't react for a while, Leng Leng looked at him, and he explained: "The footprints left by walking and running are different, the wavy marks on their footprints are left by snakes crawling over, they should be chased by snakes all the way to escape, now we don't know if those snakes are still there, it may be dangerous to continue walking." ”

I felt that he had a point, so I took a closer look at the cave by the light of the fire, and the cave above looked like an upright football, but the cave below looked like a tunnel, the kind of train that passed through the mountain, but the more it went, the more regular it became.

If I hadn't stopped and observed at this moment, I wouldn't have noticed this at all, the walls of the cave on both sides were too neat, obviously from human handiwork, including the stone bridge, who would have thought that in this dark underground world, there were traces of human activity.

But the problem now is, Wu Feng is right, a straight road, if the black snake doesn't catch up with Sanjiu and them, he will definitely return to the lair the same way, that is, the mushroom, wouldn't the two of us hit someone's gun?

To paraphrase a sentence, at this moment we are 'there are pursuers in front, there is no way to retreat', we can only go forward hard, I comforted him and said: "Let's go, how to say that there are also our own people in the front, in case of danger, we will be isolated." ”

Wu Feng thought about it, nodded and continued to walk forward, the firelight reflected the shadows of the two of us on the cave walls on both sides, the corner of my eye glanced at the corner, and my heart suddenly lifted, it was the human head again, standing on my shoulder, this time I couldn't help but move, pretending to walk without anything, and said to Wu Feng in a soft voice: "How old are you this year?" ”

Wu Feng turned his head to look at me, a little inexplicable, and replied, "25, what's the matter?" ”

I saw that his expression was normal, not like seeing something on my shoulder, and my heart was even more chilling, and I hurriedly said perfunctorily: "It's okay, just ask." ”

I pretended to be calm on my face, and my mind had already exploded, and I thought to myself, should this thing follow me all the way from the stone wall where the evil ghost was sealed! What am I going to do? But before I could figure out a solution, the earth hole came to an end, and we were facing a more serious problem, the way out at the end was blocked by a behemoth, and Sanjiu's footprints and the footprints of the black snake were gone here.

The behemoth was a beast's head carved out of stone, with its eyes half-open and its mouth closed, carved so lifelike that it seemed like a giant beast was about to burrow into a hole, but because its body was so large, it stuck only its head in it.

Wu Feng inspected it and said: "This place must be able to pass, the people and snakes in front of them have no signs of turning back, there may be a mechanism to open the beast's head nearby, let's look for it." ”

I replied absentmindedly, but did not move, because I felt that the beast's head was very familiar, I searched for a moment in my memory, and suddenly said, "It's exactly the same!" ”

Wu Feng hurriedly asked, "What's the same?" ”

I didn't answer him, walked to the mouth of the beast, took his torch and examined it carefully, the stone beast has been in the soil cave for I don't know how many years, the surface has long been covered with a thick layer of dust, the people in front of me want to go over, when looking for the mechanism, they will definitely touch the beast's head, I don't need to be familiar with the hidden weapon of the mechanism, just figure out where they have touched.

Soon I found the man's palm prints on the two animal teeth, which were supposed to be the buttons to open the mechanism. Because the beast's head is too large, the distance between the two fangs can't be reached by one person with his arms outstretched, so I asked Wu Feng to hold the beast teeth on the other side, and the two of them broke left and right at the same time, and there was a 'click' turning sound inside.

The beast's mouth gradually opened, revealing the entrance of the black hole, Wu Feng and I looked at each other and smiled, but then our faces froze at the same time.

There was a chewing sound from the entrance, as if someone was enjoying the delicious food, Wu Feng looked at me stupidly, the things inside suddenly stopped eating, I secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly took a few steps back, a bloodstained human face suddenly poked out, staring straight at us, the face was still a human face, but the pupils had dilated, this was undoubtedly a dead person!

The dead man crawled out, and spit out the piece of meat in his mouth, which still had black skin on it, it seemed that his delicacy was the black snake, he was most likely one of the three nines, and died here for some reason, but as a dead man, he was too lively and active, this was no longer a dead man in the usual sense.

Seeing this, Wu Feng stepped in front of me, and said hurriedly: "Seniors go first!" ”

What tricks is he playing? I muttered to myself, will I repeat the old trick? The footsteps continued to retreat, and the heart said that it would be more than enough to deal with the dead corpse with his skills anyway, so he turned and ran away without looking back.

After waiting for a long time next to the mushroom root, I still haven't seen him come back, I snorted, and secretly said that he really came to this trick again, I'm afraid that he will easily deal with the dead corpse and go in first, I don't have the ability to save my life, I know that it is a plan and I have to do what he says, this is the helplessness and sorrow of the weak.

Slowly walked back to the beast's head, but the scene in my eyes blasted my calmness out of the clouds, the dead body had fallen to the ground and no longer moved, but Wu Feng was also lying on the ground, a pool of dark red blood gathered under his body, and a big hole was broken in his stomach, although he held it tightly with both hands, there was still blood gushing out.

The torch in my hand fell to the ground, and rushed to his side in a few steps, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, his head was pale with sweat, and he saw that I smiled reluctantly, and his weak voice carried a pleading: "Before... Generation...... You, can you... Bury me..."

My nose was sore, I wanted to reach out to cover his wound, and I wanted to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, but finally I just looked at his young face quietly, and my heart fell into an unprecedented contradiction, knowing that he wanted to harm me several times, and now looking at his dying appearance, I still can't help but feel unspeakable sadness in my heart.

Death, how simple, life, so fragile; Wu Feng's eyes gradually closed, he died to save me, and after realizing this, I hugged his body and cried bitterly.

Guilty of the suspicion he had just had, tears fell on his pale face, on his closed eyelids, on his blood-stained lips, and he looked very well-behaved, like a shy big boy.

My sadness is not only for this young life to sleep forever in the depths of the earth, but also for myself, Wu Feng has me to bury, so what about me, if I die, who will bury me?

I don't want to find any peerless books, and I'm not interested in learning those weird evil arts, yes, it seems to me that whether it's controlling corpses or making corpse monsters, it's all shady evil arts, I just want to get out of here alive, that's all.

After crying, I wiped away my tears and dug a grave for Wu Feng with sharp stones, but the soil on the ground was soft, and I could still dig a place for him to stay.

I don't think I'll ever forget the feeling of burying a person with my own hands, especially when his body hasn't stiffened yet, and the facial expression is more like he's asleep, as if he might wake up at any moment.

The dead are big, although I don't have the strength to dig another pit, but I finally used gravel to build a grave for Zhao Wuye's subordinates, and when everything is done, I rested for a while, took one last look at the two graves side by side, and turned around and stepped into the gloomy beast's mouth.
