Chapter 61: About the Bifurcation

Chapter 61 on the fork

The trumpet-shaped secret passage continued for a while, the walls and the roof of the shed became clean, I don't know why, there was no such disgusting skin here, and there were night pearls almost everywhere in front, and even people with a little greed like Dazhe were reluctant to take a second look because of aesthetic fatigue, just as it was a free and cheap light bulb without electricity. Not only that, but the intricate patterns began to become unusual, the patterns were deeper than before, and the lines were thicker, becoming simpler and less complicated than before, and the walls were covered with deeply dented charms like sandy beaches cut by tree branches.

There was an open area ahead, and at the end of the trumpet-shaped path, a fork in the road appeared. Yun Ximing wanted to step forward to explore the way, but I stopped him.

"Let me come here, uncle, Ximing, the three of you disperse, see if there are any traps or clues around here, I'll explore a little, you can rest assured that it will be fine." I said so. Every time I say it's okay, they will let their guard down and think that Ji Ziyang is following me, but now Brother Ji Ziyang doesn't know where to go and detour, so it hasn't appeared until now, and the reason why I avoid everyone is because I feel a strange smell, which is a dangerous smell.

Uncle Lu, Yun Ximing and Dazhe left and began to check the surroundings, I saw that they were focused, so I quickly dodged and walked into the fork in the road on the left. The fork on the left is very clean, obviously someone often cleans it, coupled with our previous speculation in the tomb, this is definitely not an ancient tomb that no one dares to enter, someone must come in often. However, the ignorant and greedy villagers who died outside are obviously not the best candidates, and the best explanation is that someone came here to sweep the graves.

I walked a little bit on the fork in the road on the left, and I found that there was nothing wrong, and the intuition that felt bad was getting weaker and weaker, and it seemed that it was not this side, but the other side. I turned back and entered the fork in the road on the right, and sure enough, this was where that strange feeling came from, and I stood there for a moment, and suddenly I had an idea that maybe I could do this......

Five minutes later, I returned to the fork in the road as if nothing happened, uncle, they were all waiting in place, I looked at Yun Ximing, he spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, obviously nothing to gain.

"I went to look at both sides, there is nothing weird, but I'm not sure what is ahead, let's divide the soldiers into two ways, uncle, you and Dazhe go this way." I pointed to the fork in the road on the left. "Ximing, let's go to the right." I say.

"Okay." Yun Ximing agreed, and Uncle Lu also nodded.

"If one party is in danger, retreat here and wait for rescue, or go into another fork in the road and join the other party, regardless of whether there is danger or not, you must return here after half an hour, if one party does not come back, something is wrong, and the other party will immediately rush to the rescue. What do you think of this arrangement? I said.

The Great Philosopher looked like Teacher Venus and said, "Perfect." ”

After that, we made a simple classification of the things on our bodies now, we still have two bottles of water, no food, some first-aid things, and some tools, especially tools, we divided the tools and medicines equally, one bottle of water for each team, and then Yun Ximing and I sent Uncle and Dazhe into the fork in the road on the left, and we also walked towards the right.

The fork on the right is much wetter than the one on the left, you can see moss everywhere, and you have to pay attention to your feet from time to time when you walk, Yun Ximing and I walked for about two or three minutes, and at first you could hear the footsteps of Dazhe and Uncle Lu, but now you can't hear it gradually. At this time, Yun Ximing suddenly stopped.

"This is it, let's say, what's the mystery of this fork in the road?" Yun Ximing asked me suddenly.

"You feel it too?" I say.

"I'm not that fat man, you didn't hesitate in the slightest when you were grouped just now, obviously it wasn't that the decision made on the spot was already well thought out, you are not the kind of person who likes to pick up light things to do, so the right side is definitely more dangerous than the left side. In addition, when I checked just now, I found that the road on the left side was very clean, there were traces of regular cleaning, and obviously the time of the last cleaning was not far away, which is the same as what we felt in the tomb, someone here has been here, and he came from the left, so there must not be much danger on the left, but on our side, there must be something bad, the evidence is that you have not spoken since you walked into this fork in the road, and your face is pale. "Yun Ximing said that the head is the Tao, and I am speechless.

"You don't blame me, I always drag you on my adventures."

"Fool, I said it all, you are my Tai Sui, and I have been planted in your hands in this life." Yun Ximing said with a wicked smile.

"What in this life, in this life, I don't like you, don't talk nonsense, show you something." As I spoke, I took out a Nankoku pear from my bag.

"You should have heard of our Kui family's ghost fishing methods. Ghosts generally protect themselves in case they encounter people who have yin-yang magic, or those warlocks who kill ghosts, and the so-called ghost fishing is to lure ghosts out with things, or let them appear, because even people with yin-yang magic can't see all ghosts. Just like if you see a passer-by approaching you, but you can't see a child hiding behind the door playing peek-a-boo, the ghost will hide. Many ghosts are only interested in two things, one is the provision of food, and the other is the money of the money. Tie up the food with the secret gold rope of our Kui family, which can be described as a sharp weapon for fishing ghosts. The rope is coated with the juice of the flower on the other side, so the ghost can't actually get what is trapped on it, but it will leave traces. Every time I used this trick before, when the rope was retracted, I could see some black handprints on it with yin-yang techniques, which ordinary people couldn't see, only once I saw tooth marks on it, and later found out that it was really a starving ghost, so I didn't choose to eat. I walked in here early and tried it this way, and the result was ......"

I put the Nanguo pear in front of Yun Ximing.

"This is ......," Yun Ximing pointed to the southern pear.

There is no trace of this Nanguo pear at a glance with Yin-Yang Technique, but you can see it with the naked eye, and there are two holes in the Nanguo pear. These two holes pierced through the Nanguo pear, from one side to the other, and the diameter of the two holes was about one and a half centimeters, which was much more than the kind of wound that Yun Ximing had when they were injured before.

"This hole is kind of like a bat wound, but why is it so big?" Yun Ximing said with emotion.

"So, maybe we've met their ancestors......"
