Chapter 45: Thief ...... Tomb robbery notes?
The farther you go, the clearer you can smell it, and the air is filled with not only the smell of earth, but also a faint smell of fish.
Bai Ye inexplicably had the feeling of being himself at this time, as if he had turned into a well-trained search and rescue dog, constantly sniffing around with his nose intended, while crawling aimlessly in this narrow and strange place.
Speaking of which, how did he end up in this strange place? Bai Ye didn't figure it out himself, anyway, when he was conscious, all he saw was the pitch-black scene in front of him.
At first, he thought he was asleep at home, and woke up in a daze in the middle of the night, so he planned to drop by to put some water. However, as soon as he sat up, he reached out and fumbled for the switch of the lamp, but he only touched a cool, uneven wall.
Suspiciously, he grabbed it hard, felt something granular fall on the palm of his hand, and hurriedly raised it in front of his eyes and squinted his eyes to look at it, because it was too dark at the time, he couldn't see anything, so Bai Ye had to raise his hand a little more and smell it.
Suddenly, a peculiar smell like the earth wafting from the rain in a rural field rushed into my nose, not a fresh aroma, but also a discernible stench.
There are no green plants in my room, so how can there be soil? Bai Ye realized that something was wrong, and immediately stood up, and hit a "wall" with his head unexpectedly, so painful that he fell to the ground again
When I looked at it again after relieving myself, where I had just reached out of my fingers, suddenly there were dots of bright light flickering and fluttering in the air.
Maybe it's because of the time that the eyes have been able to adapt, or maybe it's the effect of this little light, anyway, after that, Bai Ye has completely seen the strange environment he is in.
It wasn't that he was dazed, or that he was hallucinating again, but that he was not in his room now, and the place he was in was obviously made of pure earth, and it was a place that resembled a cave passage.
The arched passageway, which was so low that it could only accommodate half a person, was behind it a solid mud wall, and only in the direction facing it could you see the pitch-black path that stretched into the distance.
Although Bai Ye was puzzled, his keen intuition and judgment told him that this place should not stay for long. Since there was only one path in front of him, it must have prompted him to follow this place, so without the slightest hesitation or timidity, he hunched over and crawled towards the depths of the passage on all fours.
The mud-stained palms, and the very oppressive cave, Bai Ye, who thought he was an old bone, was sweating hard in this cold hole, and his back was already soaked, and sweat continued to come out on his forehead and face.
The air seemed to grow thinner, and the cavern was so quiet that the only sound was the sound of him panting and scraping against the ground as he crawled. Bai Ye raised his elbow and wiped his sweat, and habitually started to complain again.
Speaking of which, is this scene inexplicably familiar? What's the deal with this sense of déjà vu in tomb robbery notes? Is he acting out the scene of Tufuzi climbing the tomb?
No, no, I remember accidentally seeing a tomb robbery drama on TV, when those tomb robbers went to rob the tomb, they didn't need to crawl like a four-legged insect like him stupidly, okay?!
And the tomb is bigger than his toilet! The floor is also as clean as if there is a part-time worker every day to clean it! Where is he like him, so embarrassed to burrow with rats!
The ghost complained, but there was only this one way, and Bai Ye could only continue to climb forward in resignation.
As he continued to move forward, the points of light that had just drifted sporadically in the air gradually increased, and a large area of fluorescent green light was almost formed in groups, illuminating the originally dark and damp cave passage clearly and brightly.
Bai Ye stopped crawling, and by the light, he glanced at the front of the road, only to see that not far ahead, there was a larger piece of fluorescent green light floating in the air. With deeper doubts, he slowly approached the light.
After walking a few steps, a wide but empty cavern appeared in front of me, except for the innermost part of the cavern, there was a place paved with hay, which looked like it was specially used for resting on it.
Bai Ye didn't have to think about it, he knew that this must be the end of this passage, because around this wide cavern, except for the passage that he had just walked out, there was no other exit that seemed to be the road.
Well? Come out? Bai Ye turned around to look, and then he suddenly realized that at some point, the passage, which was so low just now, now not only has a height that people can pass through with their heads bowed slightly, but even the width has become able to accommodate at least two people walking side by side at the same time.
In the eerily quiet cavern, there was a sudden sound of a sooth, and before Bai Ye could turn back to look, something immediately fell on his shoulder.
The white night was suddenly touched, and he was so frightened that he shook his whole body, and goosebumps spread all over his body in an instant.
Although he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, he doesn't think he has done anything wrong, and since he raised a group of hairy children who claim to be strange beasts at home, he has also changed from disbelief at the beginning to an indifferent and unstrange attitude.
However, whenever he encounters all kinds of strange things without warning, as a human instinctive reaction, he still can't help but feel empty.
Twisting his neck, he turned his head very slowly and stiffly, and the corner of his eye caught the first glimpse of a white and smooth soft ...... Huh? Isn't this a human hand?
Call...... Sure enough, it's scaring yourself, isn't it just a person, looking at the silky back of the hand and slender fingers, dare to love or a girl. But how could there be girls in this strange cave?
Could it be that this is an indiscriminate kidnapping? And this girl and herself were kidnapped here by a kidnapper hiding somewhere?
But to be reasonable, he is a thirty-year-old uncle with nothing to waste firewood, did the person who kidnapped him forget to take medicine or what? Bai Ye tugged at the corners of his mouth, hehe, this is enough to change from a tomb robbery note to a plot of Detective Conan.
But it's better for someone to stay alone in this ghost place than himself, even if who still has a little conscience, although I don't know if it's deliberate, but finally let him have someone to accompany him on this bumpy road, and this person seems to be a beautiful woman.
Thinking so, Bai Ye quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around naturally. "Hello beauty, may I ask ...... you"
Bai Ye's self-conscious smile was embarrassing and not polite, and when he looked at the "person" in front of him, he suddenly collapsed into a horror emoji of Gintoki Sakata in Gintama.
