Chapter 66: Xuanji Cave (2)
"Look for it, if there's any mechanism." An Li shouted as he looked around.
"There is also a porcelain plate on the top of the stone gate, quick, monk, quickly break it" Hu Ting was the first to find the porcelain plate, hurriedly grabbed a handful of stones from the ground and handed it to Fu Hu.
Fu Hu only heard a "bang" and the porcelain plate fell to the ground, but the stone gate still didn't move.
"The door still doesn't move," Hu Ting said anxiously
"Fuhu, can you try to knock over the small iron box hanging on the porcelain plate?" An Li asked
Fu Hu tried his best to hit the small iron box, "bang" The stone did hit the iron box but did not knock it over but was bounced away, Fu Hu threw another small stone one after another small stone up, but the more nervous it seemed to be less accurate, the more it hit, the more partial it was, and some even fell directly to the ground.
"Hurry up, the snake is coming," Li Yan shouted while observing the surrounding situation, flicking his torch to scare the group of snakes that were about to swim over
Li Yan's words just fell. The small iron box was knocked upside down by the pebble. The contents of the tin box were spilled on the ground at once, and the explosion caught fire, and An Li smelled the smell and felt that the things on fire seemed to be mixed with phosphorus powder in the sulfur. The stone door also clicked open, and several people hurriedly walked to the door, An Li saw Li Yan still standing at the door waving a torch, so he said: "Li Yan, go quickly, the door is open"
"It's too late," Li Yan looked back and smiled.
Through the small pile of flames on the ground, An Li saw that Li Yan's legs were already crawling with flower snakes.
"Li Yan!" Everyone shouted, if Li Yan hadn't used a torch to drive away the snake, it is estimated that all the people would have been bitten by the snake.
"You all have to live well" Li Yan threw the torch out with all his might, closed his eyes with a smile and fell down, and in an instant Li Yan was crawling with flower snakes.
An Li watched Li Yan, who had already been poisoned, endure the pain and finally squeeze out a smile and fell into the group of flower snakes, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
The stone door was clattering shut, and An Li saw that the dense flower snakes had wrapped around him, and he couldn't see anything except the human form.
All the people were in a very low mood, turned around and looked at the stone gate, this time between the two stone gates is a deep pit is also nearly ten meters or so, at the moment the stone gate closed, many wooden piles more than one meter high appeared in the deep pit, and there were no flames on the rock walls on both sides, but through the light of the torches, it can be seen that there are many dragon head decorations on both sides of the rock wall, and the dragon's mouth began to spit water out rapidly.
Fu Hu often walked on the plum blossom pile when he practiced martial arts in the Shaolin Temple, so he flew on the wooden stake and walked a few steps, no problem, and walked to the stone gate on the opposite side in one go. The remaining three people were dumbfounded, it was okay to walk one or two steps on such a high stake, but it was nearly ten meters, and it would definitely fall.
"I can't go up, it's so thin wood, I have to fall down when I go up, or I'll just walk over," said Hang Bangtian and was about to go to the stone gate.
"Have you forgotten how Li Yan died?" Hu Ting Road.
The foot that he had just taken back was retracted, and he said, "What do you say?"
The dragon's mouth kept spitting out water, and in an instant the water was halfway up to the stake.
"I see that there are a lot of stalactites on the top of this cave, if we tie the rope on you and Miss An's body, we can pull the rope and walk, we will definitely be able to get by before the water rises," Hu Ting said.
Fu Hu watched the water slowly rise and hurriedly returned, he stood on the stake and tied the rope that had been connected to the stalactites above his head, and then walked to the opposite side to tie the rope and came back and dragged the others on the stake one by one, everyone grabbed the rope and stepped on the stake carefully, the water flow became faster and faster, only halfway to the water was already about to be with the stake, Fu Hu held the torch and walked in the middle, the front and the back only with this faint light of the fire forward.
An Li, who was walking in front, had to speed up, An Li was the first to climb up the pit and watch the others come over one by one, Hu Ting was walking in the last one, and he was about to come over, the torch in Fu Hu's hand suddenly became weaker and weaker, and it burned out at a glance, and the water had already risen past the stake, not relying on this firelight, he couldn't see where the stake was hidden under the water, the moment the fire burned out, Hu Ting's eyes suddenly stepped into the water with a black foot, fortunately he held the rope in his hand, Half of his body was swinging in the air, one leg was still on the stake, and the other leg was all immersed in the water, in the darkness, he could only hold on to the rope tightly, little by little in the water to explore the stake, and after stepping on the stake, he carefully moved over.
Seeing that Hu Ting had finally gone up to the deep pit, An Li finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and this time there were finally no more dead people. Fu Hu knocked over the small iron box on the stone door again, and the porcelain plate lit up with fire, and the stone door opened. A few people helped Hu Ting, who had just come up, into the stone gate.
After entering the stone gate, there was a lot of fire suddenly lit on the rock wall, this space is a circle, and there is no stone door, and there is a sarcophagus in the middle of the space. A few stood still, and the half-pay did not find anything wrong.
"Divine doctor, why is your face so bad?" An Li suddenly saw Hu Ting's face turn pale.
"Is there one? I just feel a little dizzy. As soon as An Li said, Hu Ting really felt that something was wrong, so he slipped and sat on the ground as he spoke.
"Quick, look at his legs, he just fell into the water," Hang Bangtian shouted, and when he came up just now, he heard the sound of Hu Ting stepping on the water.
Fu Hu tore open Hu Ting's trouser legs, and on the leg that fell into the water, from the knee down, one by one, lying on his stomach were leeches two finger widths. Fu Hu shook Hu Ting's legs vigorously, but it was useless, and the leech seemed to be half of what it had grown since it was born, and it didn't move.
"Come, let me come, when I was a child, I got this thing in the paddy field and drenched some urine and went down," said the hanging bomb, and he was about to untie his belt and prepare to drench it on Hu Ting's legs. An Li hurriedly turned his head and asked, "How is it?" Is it useful? ”
"Still doesn't work, what should I do?" Fu Hu asked anxiously.
"Cut it off," Hu Ting said weakly
"Cut, cut?" Hanging Bangtian lifted his pants and took out the dagger on his body.
"This leech is extraordinary, and if it continues, I will definitely bleed to death," Hu Ting explained
The dagger that hung the sky had already rolled up the blade when it cut the silk thread, and An Li pulled out his dagger from his boots when he saw this, and An Li definitely couldn't get his hands on it, so he handed the dagger to the hanging bomber.
I only heard Hu Ting's shout of "ah", fainted in pain, and the hanging dagger removed the meat on Hu Ting's leg like a cow bone. An Li hurriedly tied Hu Ting's thigh with his torn trouser leg to stop the bleeding, but the leech had sucked the blood on his leg clean, and there was not much blood oozing out of his leg.
After dealing with Hu Ting's legs, An Li leaned him aside first and walked to the sarcophagus. Hanging Bangtian moved the lid of the sarcophagus vigorously, and Fu Hu and An Li carefully observed the surrounding situation, for fear of touching something again.
Author's note: Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 have changed slightly, so if you want to look back, you can take a look, and if you don't want to, it won't affect the plot
