Chapter 11: Underground
When the dark shadow turned its head, everyone saw it.
"Wei Dong - Da ...... Click...... Click......" Xiao Wu suddenly screamed, his teeth chattering.
That black shadow was Wei Dong, who had died in the hall outside the door before, but at this moment, Wei Dong was like a black piece of paper pasted on the door.
"You...... You...... Is it dead or alive?"
Several people were so frightened that they retreated to the other corner, but the third uncle had encountered such a strange thing for the first time after a long time, could it be that there are really ghosts in this world?
The black shadow suddenly stood up, and its whole body walked out of the wall, like a piece of paper torn off the wall, but it still seemed to be glued to the wall and did not fall.
"Hiss-" Everyone was even more frightened, Zhou Zhichu felt that his back had been completely attached to the wall, this Wei Dong who didn't know if he was a ghost or a human was too weird.
Just when everyone was panicked and at a loss, the black shadow suddenly climbed to the top of the gate with his hands and feet like a toad, and one hand was pressing on the jade.
"You dare. "The third uncle is in a hurry, even if you really encounter a ghost, you have to fight for such treasures.
The black shadow suddenly showed a seeping smile and pressed the jade.
"Click-"
"Ahh
A stone slab on the ground suddenly cracked a hole the size of a person, and Xiao Wu, who was standing on it, disappeared in an instant, leaving only a scream.
The remaining three were all clung to the wall in shock.
"Click-" The floor was restored, and in just a breath, a big living person disappeared, and even Xiao Wu's screams stopped abruptly as if they had been cut off.
"Little Five!" The third uncle reacted, and suddenly rushed to the floor that was still cracked just now, and picked it with his hands, but there was no gap at all.
"It's gone. Zhou Zhichu said suddenly.
"What?" the third uncle was annoyed, did he need to say that Xiao Wu was gone.
"Dark Shadow...... Wei Dong is gone. ”
"What!" The third uncle suddenly looked up at the top of the gate, where it was blank, the jade was still there, but the black shadow had disappeared without a trace.
Cold sweat instantly soaked the third uncle's entire back, and the entire corridor was dead and silent for a while.
The change just now was too sudden, and it even gave people the illusion that nothing had happened, but several of them knew that something had indeed happened just now, Xiao Wu had disappeared, and Wei Dong, whether it was a ghost or a human, he had come back to life.
If it weren't for the fact that his brain was still quite clear, the third uncle wondered if it was a dream just now.
"Find!" the third uncle suddenly raised his torch and shone it around.
The father and son of the Zhou family could only hold torches and carefully shine around, including the rooms on the side, but they found nothing.
"It's really gone. ”
The third uncle stood in the middle of the corridor, disappointed, annoyed, and heartbroken.
Suddenly, he walked to the jade directly under the black shadow just now, held the torch and looked at it carefully, turned around and pointed at the young man:
"Come here. ”
Zhou Zhichu also walked under the gate, and the third uncle said, "You go up and see what mechanism there is!"
The jade at the gate was about two or three people high, about two zhang or more, and before Zhou Zhizhi nodded, the third uncle grabbed his arm and threw it upward.
"Go!"
The young man felt that his body was rising rapidly, and soon it was level with the jade, and he saw that there was a very narrow gap above the jade, which felt that it could just be stuck into a palm, and the gap was very regular, obviously designed by the ancients, and because of the angle, people could not see it below.
"Press down!" Just as Zhou Chu rose to the highest place, the third uncle shouted below.
Zhou Zhizhi stretched out his palm and stuck it into the gap in an instant, supported his body hard, and pressed the jade with his other hand.
Click-a stone slab on the floor cracked, and the third uncle standing on the side almost fell.
"Why isn't it the one just now!?" the third uncle was a little confused.
At the beginning of the week, I was also a little confused, the floor where Xiao Wu fell before was in the corner, and now this piece is in the middle, is this mechanism random?
However, the young man felt a little pity in his heart, if the third uncle also fell just now......
The boy let go, and the floor clicked again.
The third uncle suddenly looked up and was a little surprised to see that Zhou Zhichu was actually hanging on the jade.
"There's a crack in it. Zhou Zhichu explained.
The third uncle nodded, this was not what he cared about, "You press it again." ”
Seeing that the young man was a little hesitant, the third uncle knew that he was worried about Zhou Laohan, and said: "Don't worry, if you are prepared, you won't fall, and the floor where your father is standing is broken, and there will be no mechanism." ”
The doors of many rooms in the corridor were twisted and destroyed by strong external forces, and the same was true for the floors, most of them were shattered, and there was dirt underneath, obviously there could be no mechanism, and Zhou Laohan was now standing on a broken floor.
Strange, why are all broken without organs, and if there are organs, none of them have been destroyed?
Zhou Zhizhi didn't have time to think about it, he put his palm on the jade again, the surface of the jade was warm and moist under the light of the torch, and a little light was flowing inside, very beautiful, but now was not the time to admire, he pressed the jade for the second time.
Click-
A new floor cracked, and at the beginning of the week, he looked at the location and had an idea in his heart.
"This organ should all be in one line. ”
If a piece of floor is considered a lattice, then the three cracked floors in the front and back are all on the horizontal line three squares away from the gate, and there are about twelve three-foot square floors on this horizontal line, which is close to the gate, and the floor near the gate is the most intact, which is why none of the broken floors have mechanisms, because the mechanisms are all concentrated near the gate.
Zhou Chuchu said his inference, and the third uncle snorted in his mouth without refutation, but his heart was complicated, this kid was a little smarter and calmer than he thought.
"Press it again?" the boy asked.
"No need to press it, since these mechanisms are in the same line, they are very likely to lead to one place. "The third uncle relied on experience to make inferences, and the young man was far inferior to him at this point.
"Hold and hold don't move. The third uncle explained.
The third uncle lay on the ground, looking at the cracked opening, and it was pitch black inside that he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Little Five—" The third uncle shouted, and there were echoes from underground.
He picked up another stone and threw it down until he heard an echo for a long time.
"Bottomless pit?" The third uncle probed with his hand again, there was a faint air current, and it was still a little wet, could it be that there was an underground river below?
"Little Five—Little Five—" The third uncle shouted a few more times, this time there seemed to be something else besides the echo.
"What is that sound? Could there be other living creatures?" Zhou Laohan also glanced at the pitch-black underground curiously.
Everyone had a chill down their spines.
"Shhhhhhhhh
It was a thin grinding sound, as if the sand was flowing, and it seemed like countless hands and feet crawling over the wall, the sound came from far and near, and it felt like something was about to crawl out of the abyss.
"Is it Xiao Wu?" at the beginning of the week, I couldn't see the situation below.
"......" The third uncle looked puzzled, this is not like Xiao Wu, and it is not even like a voice that a person can make.
The voice was getting closer and closer, Zhou Laohan felt that something was wrong, and took a few steps back, and Zhou Zhichu, who was hanging on the door, also felt bad,
"I'm going to loosen. ”
"Wait. ”
The third uncle's face was cloudy, and the rustling sound was getting closer and closer, as if he would climb up in the next moment.
At this time, the third uncle suddenly threw the torch in his hand into it.
In an instant, his face became extremely frightened, his hair stood on end, and even his voice became sharp and distorted.
"Close-close-"
