Chapter 437: The Giant Serpent
Ouyang Hongyu followed his grandfather all the way down, this staircase was not too wide at first, but the further down he went, the wider the stairs became, and correspondingly, the wider this underground cave became.
Although the old man Ouyang Wenhan has insisted on playing Tai Chi or something all the year round, his physical strength is not good, because of his age, his legs and feet are not as dexterous as those of young people, and he has been walking for three or four hours along the way, and he has not yet reached the bottom of the cave.
At first, Ouyang Hongyu could still see the light at the entrance, but gradually, he couldn't see anything, except for the light of the flashlight in his hand, there was absolute darkness all around. Ouyang Hongyu was very unaccustomed to this environment at the beginning, and the damp and cold aura became heavier and heavier, so that Ouyang Hongyu couldn't help but be afraid that there would be some danger hidden in this darkness.
Fortunately, along the way, the old man Ouyang Wenhan chatted with him, and told him many secrets of the Ouyang family that are not known to the world, and along the way, the old man Ouyang Wenhan was obviously introducing all the family's properties to Ouyang Hongyu in detail, as well as the relationship between the side branches of the family, as well as the respective temperaments and preferences of the puppets under him, telling him how to control these people in the future and how to manage this huge family.
Regarding these, Ouyang Hongyu listened to them with relish, and at the request of his grandfather, he expressed some of his own opinions. Of course, the biggest advantage is that chatting like this not only makes me feel that time flies, but also helps Ouyang Hongyu overcome his fear of darkness, allowing him to gradually adapt to such an environment and the endless darkness around him.
When resting again, the grandfather and grandson talked and laughed again, Xu is Ouyang Hongyu's laughter was slightly louder, as if he was disturbed by something, and there was a low roar from the ground, the sound was not like a human being, nor like an ordinary beast, Ouyang Hongyu had never heard such a sound. There seemed to be a hint of anger in the dull roar, but it wasn't too loud or high-pitched, apparently due to the lack of strength of the creature making the roar.
Rao is voice was not loud, which also shocked Ouyang Hongyu's heart, and an inexplicable sense of fear crept into his heart.
"Grandpa, what's that sound?" Ouyang Hongyu's voice became a little trembling. For most people, the more unknown things are, the more frightening they feel, let alone being in such a dark space. Ouyang Hongyu even began to regret it a little, regretting that his curiosity was so heavy that he followed his grandfather to such a place. Although he had his grandfather by his side, Ouyang Hongyu still felt fearful, this underground cave seemed to have no end, giving people the feeling of circling straight to the center of the earth. The most terrifying thing is the darkness, the place where the flashlight beam can shine is too limited, Ouyang Hongyu doesn't know what's around, and he doesn't dare to look around, for fear of seeing something that shouldn't be seen, scaring himself, Ouyang Hongyu has felt that his psychology is hovering on the verge of collapse several times.
Ouyang Wenhan was extremely calm, patted Ouyang Hongyu's shoulder comfortingly, and said: "Yu'er, don't be afraid, that beast can't hurt us, maybe let's laugh a little louder, let this beast hear it, don't pay attention to it, let's take a little rest, continue to walk down, and we will soon reach the bottom." ”
Hearing Ouyang Wenhan say that he was about to reach the bottom, Ouyang Hongyu's heart was a little more steady, and it felt really bad to hang here all the time, but Ouyang Hongyu missed the feeling of being down-to-earth the more he walked.
"Grandpa, what the hell is that beast you're talking about?" With another low, suppressed roar, Ouyang Hongyu's heart trembled again, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry, you'll know when you get down there in a moment." Ouyang Wenhan was calm, and his tone was very light.
This also reassured Ouyang Hongyu a lot, looking at his grandfather's appearance, at least there was really no danger below, so he nodded and said, "Okay, grandpa, you drink some water, tell me when you are rested, and let's continue to go down." ”
"Yu'er, speaking of which, you are already very good, do you know that when your grandfather brought me here for the first time, he didn't accompany me down, but just threw me a backpack and a flashlight, and told me to go down to the bottom to have a look. At that time, I was really frightened, I felt that this underground cave was boundless, the darkness was boundless, and there was a deathly silence, and that feeling was unforgettable! Ouyang Wenhan recalled the past and said.
Ouyang Hongyu asked puzzledly, "Why didn't Grandpa come down with you?" ”
"Because at that time, your grandfather was old, and his legs and feet were not so dexterous, and it was easy for him to walk down, but if he walked back, I am afraid his body would not be able to hold it." Ouyang Wenhan explained.
"I see, I thought Grandpa was too ruthless!" Ouyang Hongyu said with a reluctant smile. He was still in a state of panic at the moment, but he really couldn't talk and laugh.
"On the one hand, your grandfather is indeed not in good health, and on the other hand, he also wants to train me, after all, it is not a simple matter to succeed the head of the Ouyang family, it is absolutely impossible to do it without courage, but it is even more important to be brave and resourceful when encountering problems. In fact, the first time the previous heads of the family came here, they basically came down by themselves, and grandpa also considered that you were still young and had not enough experience, so he didn't worry that you would come down alone, so he accompanied you to see the beast. Ouyang Wenhan said with a smile.
Ouyang Hongyu looked at his grandfather with a grateful face, and said: "Grandpa, thank you, you love me so much, you think about me in everything, and you don't care that you are now in your old age, it is your grandson who is not filial, and you let my grandfather accompany me to suffer this trip." ”
"It's okay, isn't my Yu'er also filial piety to grandpa, I drank the ginseng soup and ginseng wine you sent before, the effect is very good, grandpa's body has recovered a lot, this time you brought me such a big jar of century-old ginseng wine, when I drink it all, maybe the physical fitness can catch up with you kid! Ha ha! "Ouyang Wenhan's mood is good, his grandson, he doesn't have pain in vain.
Ouyang Hongyu hurriedly said: "Grandpa, Yu'er has been by her grandfather's side since she was a child, and she has been taught by her grandfather, and it is right to honor you!" Grandpa's body is already old and strong, and this ginseng wine is just the icing on the cake. ”
"Haha, you kid, go out, this little mouth is a lot sweeter! Alright, let's move on. Ouyang Wenhan said.
Ouyang Hongyu hurriedly packed up his things and followed his grandfather to continue walking. said that it was almost there, and the two walked for almost an hour, during which the roar became clearer and more frequent, and Ouyang Hongyu gradually adapted to the roar, plus grandpa was by his side, but he was no longer too afraid.
Finally, there were no more steps under Ouyang Hongyu's feet, but a flat ground, which made him a little happy in his heart, it had been seven or eight hours, and he had finally reached the bottom of this cave, and he almost thought that this cave was a bottomless pit.
Ouyang Wenhan walked quickly to a position, made several handprints with his hands in a row, and drew a complicated symbol in the void, and the lampstands that had been set up around him suddenly lit up, and the dancing flames illuminated the bottom of the cave.
Ouyang Hongyu was used to the darkness around him, and this sudden light made him dare not open his eyes for a while, and after a short period of adaptation, Ou Hongyu was able to raise his eyes and look around again.
The bottom of this cave is really extremely spacious, and it is impossible to see the edge at a glance, which makes Ouyang Hongyu feel miraculous, in this cave, there is a huge pool of water with a diameter of at least a thousand meters. You know, this is an island, can there be such a big pool under this island? This waterhole is already incredible, but there are even more incredible things, several large iron chains the thickness of an arm, extending from the darkness that cannot be seen from a distance, gradually submerging into the water, and I don't know what it is used for.
Ouyang Hongyu looked around again, but he didn't see the animal that roared just now, that is, the beast in his grandfather's mouth. However, the water in the pool is clear and calm, only in the center of the pool, a huge black shadow can be faintly seen underwater. Ouyang Hongyu wanted to get close to the edge of the pool to find out, but before he could reach the edge of the pool, Ouyang Wenhan shouted: "Yu'er, don't go over, there is still some danger on the edge of this pool." ”
Hearing this, Ouyang Hongyu hurriedly took a few steps back, but it was also a little late, and the black shadow in the waterhole suddenly rose rapidly, and it surfaced in an instant, bringing a large splash of water. Ouyang Hongyu was shocked and surprised, he had never seen something so large, to be exact, it was a dragon that only lived in myths and legends. Ouyang Hongyu, who couldn't dodge, was splashed with water, slapped his body, and retreated backwards again and again, almost hitting Ouyang Wenhan's body, but he didn't even notice it.
Ouyang Wenhan was not angry, although his grandson was well-informed on weekdays, but a creature like Jade Jiaolong, who only lived in myths and legends in Su Ri, was absolutely unheard of and unseen, so what could be strange about being startled. Ouyang Wenhan stretched out his hand and pushed Ouyang Hongyu, lest he really bump into him, and said: "Yu'er, don't be afraid, this is the beast I just told you about, you stand in this position, it will never hurt you, take a good look yourself, what is this?" ”
Ouyang Hongyu felt the warmth transmitted from his grandfather's palm, and then he settled down and looked at the lake again. I saw a huge green snake, half floating in the water, those chains, tied to several places on its body, obviously, this giant snake is locked here, no wonder grandpa said it can't hurt itself.
