Chapter Seventy-Nine: Reeds Canyon

When you are staring into the abyss, will you find a pair of eyes staring at you?

##########

Although the familiar sign appeared again, since the ghost fire only had these functions, and this was not a remote place, there was no need to light it.

So I walked down the cave.

In the cave, you can feel some warmth, perhaps because of the psychological sensation of the orange-red flames.

The flame of the Spiriting Candle looks no different from the appearance of a normal flame, but it brings a chill.

Although there are lights, there is no sign of people here, and I wonder why there is such a thing and why it is necessary to arrange people to be stationed here.

In a sense, the seven-faced samurai was a competent escort.

After walking for a while, the slope of the terrain turned slightly higher, and the place where I came was the protrusion of the cliff.

That's right, it's a cliff canyon again.

This has a lot to do with the topography here.

The protruding rocks form a figure, and the further you go, the closer you get to the top of the body.

At the top of this rock shelf is a door-like object, a torii.

It's just that it's not like the outside, it's inside the mountain, and it's pitch black all around.

Why was the torii gate built here?

From the left, it is a mountain, and from the right, it is also a mountain, but you can clearly see that it is all by the light of the fire in the cave, and you can't see it at all from the other side.

The main road leads to the torii gate, and the main road with a rock frame is lined with smaller stones from the bottom up.

Interesting.

Courageously stepped forward and found that there was also a suspension bridge, and it was also a broken suspension bridge.

If yes, this suspension bridge should be connected to the opposite side.

"How~?~, is someone finally here!"

A trembling figure came out, and when I looked at it, I realized that it was an old woman, but I didn't find it just now.

But it's no longer strange, after all, I already agree that this is an era of symbiosis between humans and ghosts.

Just as I was about to ask her, she suddenly said:

"The road~ has been destroyed, if, you want to go to the other side......

"Just jump from the front."

"What! Jump from the front?"

No matter how you look at it, it's not just one, two, three or four stories high, after all, there was a suspension bridge here.

"What? Aren't you going to the other side?"

"There's no way but to jump."

On the contrary, he did not seem to be suspicious of his words, but he was surprised by my suspicions.

"How tall is this?"

Let's just ask. Who knew that the old woman replied with a little anger.

"Why, don't you want to go to the other side? There's no other way to go but to jump."

After that, it's just about ignoring no one.

Looking down from the end of the suspension bridge, all you can see is endless black.

Suddenly, the soles of my feet slipped and fell.

Whew~Whew~Whew~

There was wind in his ears, and he quickly adjusted his posture, turned his head and looked up, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Didn't the old woman push it?

"I'm sorry, I think I did it!" Ghost Zhong said frankly.

Is it still a ghost after all? Hey~Forget it~

But it's not a good idea to let it fall like this, and it will only end up in a puddle of meat sauce and blood.

After all, the speed is already fast to the point where the wind is blowing in your ears, and now what you have to do is to find the raised part of the rock wall around the capital, grab it with your hook, and make yourself stop and talk.

Suddenly, a dark blue light came from somewhere below the dim canyon, illuminating the surroundings.

Sou~

There was the sound of a hook breaking through the air, and yes, I found something to grab and slow down.

Boom~

Landing steadily on the rock platform at the bottom, this fall does not know how much height it has fallen, and it is obviously unrealistic to climb up.

Now I can only go down.

This is not the only huge rock protruding from here, but after groping for a while, I found a hole.

Entering from the entrance of the cave suddenly opened up, not because of the terrain, but because of the light, and there is also light here.

Entering through the cave was a rocky cavern, the size of an ordinary dwelling.

Not only that, but there were also a few skinny skeletons, one of which actually moved, which was very similar to the one in the dungeon.

But it doesn't matter, it's the way out.

Next to the skeleton there was a hole, a vertical opening, like a well, where you could see the ground below.

Jump.

This time it was more cheerful, and the light here was different from the previous one, which was the orange firelight, that is, the fire of the campfire.

The rear was blocked by mudslide-like objects made of earth and stones, and the bamboo used for construction was washed away.

I had to go along the rock wall, boxy until it was almost like a man had repaired it, no, this was not something that could have been formed naturally.

Walking out of the passage, no, strictly speaking, did not go out, because "people" were also found here.

Hide yourself.

Ahead was a very large hollow space.

How big? It's much bigger than the crypt of the seven-faced samurai before. How tall? There is room for a huge stone Buddha statue here, and the top of the Buddha statue is still quite a distance from the mountain.

Of course, two bodies stacked together will definitely not be possible.

There are already three stone Buddha statues in it, although they are not as big as the mountain Bodhisattvas in the Bodhisattva Valley, but they are bigger than the Buddha statues in the Immortal Buddha Temple.

It's just that these Buddha carvings are closer to the Bodhisattva Valley than the Immortal Buddha Temple.

Observe the huge stone Buddha sculptures, the poisonous pools of the snake road, and the remnants of the fairy palace in the caving canyon.

It's a little more reassuring than human.

The topography of the valley floor resembles a figure of 6, but perhaps the other way around.

The circle of the "6" is a poisonous swamp, and there are many dead trees in it like the lion ape, so this is already the bottom of the valley!

It's not all poison swamps, there is a small clearing in the middle of the poison swamp, but there is a musketeer with scattered bullets on it.

The passage I was standing on was to the right of the zigzag circle, and there was a bamboo scaffolding underneath it, but there was also an enemy here.

I don't see these people as negotiators, because they are outnumbered, and they have long-range, high-efficiency strike weapons, muskets.

However, the man on the scaffolding is a thin and thin beauty with a musket such as a halberd.

In the upper part of the "6" shape, there are the same two thin muscles with halberd cannons, which means that there are four soldiers here.

In fact, this is secondary, and the most important thing is the point where the circle below meets the one above, which is also the location of the exit of the large cave.

There's a different kind of beauty here.

She is so similar to the person at the Buddha Head Suspension Bridge in the Caving Canyon.
