Chapter 822: Dried Corpse

Zuoqiu looked at the mercenary behind him and asked lightly, "If it's you, which path do you choose?" ”

This mercenary is not stupid, he knows that if something happens in front, Zuoqiu will definitely let him take the blame, so he hurriedly retreated, waved his hand and said: "I don't know, I don't know......"

"Useless waste." Zuoqiu cursed for a moment, then looked at the others.

But everyone who has been seen by Zuoqiu has consciously taken a step back.

Zuoqiu frowned, and shouted angrily: "It's all a bunch of waste." ”

Except for Lei Kun and Augustine, everyone took a step back, which made Zuoqiu's face more and more gloomy, as if he would go on a killing spree at any moment.

His eyes stayed on Lei Kun and Augustine for a long time, and finally fell on Lei Kun's body.

Because he knew that even if Augustine was asked, it would be in vain.

So he looked at Lei Kun and asked, "If it were you, which path would you choose?" ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes fell on him, Lei Kun coughed lightly and asked, "What if it's you?" ”

"This ......" Zuoqiu was also a little hesitant, these two paths are actually no different to him at all, the key is that there is a person who can take the blame at the critical moment.

Thinking of this, he immediately pointed to the passage on the right.

"I see." Lei Kun showed a look of sudden realization.

Just when everyone thought that Lei Kun agreed with Zuoqiu, he suddenly pointed to the passage in front of him and said, "Come, let's go this way." ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, this was a little different from what they thought in their hearts.

Seeing the puzzled looks of the master and the others, Lei Kun just showed a mysterious smile and said lightly: "You don't understand. ”

Before the master looked at Zuoqiu, he felt that there seemed to be some inexplicable gap between Lei Kun and Zuoqiu, so that he could make good use of it.

It's just that he doesn't know what the specific situation is yet, so he plans to not offend both sides for the time being.

But it backfired, he secretly pinched his fingers, and felt that the passage in front of him was not an exaggeration even if it was a dead end.

Now is at a critical juncture when his life is on the line, so he naturally doesn't dare to be careless.

Therefore, the master directly chose to stand on Zuoqiu's side, bowing his head and eyebrows, "This monk stands on this side." ”

Zuoqiu, who was originally going to walk through the passage in front, felt a little surprised when he saw that the master was standing on his side, and his slightly raised footsteps suddenly stopped, and then slowly put it down when no one saw him.

He wondered, "Why would Master Inferior choose to stand on my side?" ”

"I'll tell you the truth, this monk quietly calculated just now, and I feel that it is safer here, so I naturally stand on this side." The master said very blandly.

In this case, Zuoqiu was relieved to know that this was not a conspiracy.

However, this shook the hearts of the rest of the people.

The main ones who are shaken are the people on Zuoqiu's side, after all, the people who are not as good as the master are standing directly behind the master, and the meaning of this is also extremely obvious.

As for Lei Kun......

He stared at the master, smiled faintly, looked at everyone's hesitation, and said secretly in his heart: "I really didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to jump out, but that's fine, even if there is an abyss in front of me, it won't be my turn to jump too much." ”

At this time, Augustine stood directly behind Zuoqiu and showed his attitude.

The rest of the mercenaries had no room to resist at all, after all, Zuoqiu was their boss.

Lei Kun shrugged, "It's better this way, I just hope that the words of the master can be fulfilled." ”

Just because it is not as good as the master's words, things have become simpler.

Now all eyes are on the entrance to the passage on the right.

The Master sent three people to explore the way, and he slowly moved forward in the few remaining bhikshu protections.

They were followed by Augustine, and then by Lei Kun.

According to Lei Kun's cautious character, he would never choose this position, which can only be blamed on Zuoqiu's "special" arrangement.

Zuoqiu followed behind under the protection of everyone.

The three monks in front of them cautiously probed, taking every step with extreme caution, as if there was a deadly mechanism hidden in front of them.

If one or two agencies are set up here, and the number of people is so dense, I'm afraid that even if you want to escape, you won't have a chance.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and there was no danger for a long time, but the speed of progress was also extremely slow.

More than ten minutes have passed, but it has only walked a few hundred meters, and it is even more distant from the end of this passage.

In such a tense atmosphere, no one spoke at all, and the atmosphere was extremely dull.

The atmosphere became heavier and heavier, like a boulder pressing on everyone's heart, making their breathing become rapid, and some of them broke out in a cold sweat.

Lei Kun could only shake his head and smile bitterly, after all, he couldn't replace others, and he couldn't worry about others.

Perhaps the only sound in the passage was the footsteps they left behind.

The jumble of sounds makes people even more distracted in this seemingly endless passage.

I don't know how long it has been, and the monks who explored the path in front don't know how many times they have changed.

At this point, the team finally stopped.

Zuoqiu, who was hiding behind, saw that the front had stopped, and there was no commotion, so he bypassed everyone and walked directly to the front.

Augustine, who protected the left mound at all times, naturally followed.

Even Lei Kun followed with great curiosity.

The three of them walked towards the front together.

When the three of them stopped, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.

In front of it is also a stone chamber, which is nearly 100 square meters and has a six-meter-wide pool in the middle.

Since we haven't gotten close yet, we don't know how deep the water is.

The most astonishing thing is that around this dimly lit stone chamber are one dried corpse after another.

Counting them carefully, no more, no less, exactly forty.

Each dried corpse was a hideous mask, as if it had suffered great pain before dying.

Lei Kun snatched a flashlight from a monk and shone it on the nearest corpse.

"The face is hideous, the arms are struggling, and the teeth are still bared, it is really terrifying!" Lei Kun stared at the dried corpse and said thoughtfully.

The sudden sight of so many dried corpses in the darkness with strange ways of dying would make anyone feel fear.

Even the bhikshus, who always had to recite two Buddha names when they had nothing to do, couldn't help but tremble in their legs, and they almost couldn't stand steadily.

As for the mercenaries in the back, the fear in their hearts has decreased a lot.

But...... Those who were standing in the last row felt the wind behind them, as if a ghost was approaching.

Lei Kun, who was staring at the dried corpse very seriously, didn't notice the expressions of the rest of the people.

He used the end of the flashlight to gently tap the skin of the dried corpse, but there was a crisp sound.

"Listening to this voice, it should be that the moisture in this dry corpse has long disappeared, and it looks very hard." Lei Kun straightened up and looked around.

If he was not afraid at all, it must be fake, but after he observed the dried corpse, the fear was alleviated a lot.

These dozens of people stood at the door of the stone room, only Lei Kun dared to walk in, and the rest of the people were staring at Lei Kun.

Lei Kun directly ignored their frightened eyes and continued to look at the stone room.

He felt more and more strange now, there was only one possibility that there were so many dried corpses, and that was that there must be something very important in it, could it be just that strange stone?

Then he looked around again, and finally found that as long as he walked through the six-meter-wide pool and went ashore, more than two meters in front of him was the opposite stone wall, and there was a stone gate more than two meters high in the middle of the stone wall.

This should be the only passage to the stone chamber.

Lei Kun turned to look at everyone, sighed lightly, and said, "Obviously, that stone gate is the only passage, but I don't think things will be so simple. ”
