Chapter 20: The Bottomless Pit at Night

Zhou Kui ran to the foot of the mountain, heard a loud "boom" on the hillside, looked back, and saw the white-haired zombie burned into a fireball by the Samadhi True Fire, he wailed in pain, and his body took a few steps back, and fell into the tomb.

Guo Jia walked to the grave and looked carefully, there was an unfathomable cave hidden under the sealed soil of the tomb, and the white-haired zombie was burned by the Samadhi real fire, and then fell into this deep hole, presumably dead.

"Big brother, what's wrong with the zombies?" Zhou Kui climbed up the mountain and walked towards Guo Jia breathlessly.

"There's a deep cavern under the mound, and he's going to die if he falls into it."

Zhou Kui looked into the cave, the deep and lonely cave gave him a strange hallucination, and an inexplicable whisper sounded in his ears.

"Senior brother, I always feel that at the bottom of this cave, something is calling me!"

Guo Jia noticed that Zhou Kui's eyes were not quite right, he patted Zhou Kui and asked in a nervous tone, "Senior Brother Zhou, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhou Kui shook his head and said to Guo Jia: "I'm fine, I just want to go down to the cave and have a look." ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he couldn't help but raise his vigilance, he thought that Zhou Kui was bewitched by some kind of evil trick.

"None of us have any professional equipment to go down to the cave, in my opinion, let's wait until tomorrow morning to find Village Chief Lin for help, so that he can find relevant tools."

Zhou Kui agreed softly, and just as Guo Jia turned around and walked down the mountain, Zhou Kui suddenly climbed onto the sealed mound of the tomb and jumped into the dark cave.

"Senior Brother Zhou!"

Guo Jia ran to the grave and stared at the black cave with a gloomy expression, and his desperate cries resounded through the night sky, echoing in the quiet mountain stream of Qingsnakeling.

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Kui woke up from his trance, he opened his eyes, and there was darkness around him. There was a strong rancid stench in the air, which smelled a lot like the rotting of corpses.

"Lao Bai, your night vision is stronger than mine, can you take a closer look at what kind of place this is?"

The white rat drilled out of his robe, stared at it carefully, and after a while, he said to Zhou Kui: "This seems to be a long and narrow cave, have you forgotten the process of being confused by evil spirits just now and jumping into the cave from the sealed mound?" ”

Zhou Kui rubbed his drowsy head, indicating that he couldn't think of anything.

The white rat spirit was helpless, and he asked Zhou Kui to take out his mobile phone and try to contact Guo Jia.

"No, there's no signal in the cave." Zhou Kui shook his head in disappointment.

"Alas, it seems that we have to wait for the senior brother to save us!" The white rat spirit said with a sad face.

In the depths of the pitch darkness, it can be somewhat unsettling. Zhou Kui turned on the flashlight function installed on the phone, and a bright and dazzling pillar of light shot out from the small hole on the back of the phone, tearing through the deep darkness shrouded in front of him.

Zhou Kui swallowed his saliva, pulled out the sword with his right hand behind his back, and held the mobile phone tightly with his left hand, walking forward as if walking on thin ice.

"Click!"

Patronizing and looking ahead, he didn't notice the situation under his feet, Zhou Kui felt as if he had stepped on something, he shone the flashlight under his feet, and the scene in front of him was so frightened that he couldn't help but exclaim: "I'll go to your uncle, it turned out to be the white-haired zombie!" ”

Perhaps it was the white-haired zombie that left a deep psychological shadow on Zhou Kui, and he was worried that the zombie might not be completely dead, so he hurriedly retreated some distance.

The white rat spirit jumped to the ground, approached the corpse of the white-haired zombie, pricked up his nose and sniffed, and after a few minutes, he shouted at Zhou Kui: "Brother Zhou, don't worry, this zombie is too dead to die anymore." ”

"Then I'll be relieved."

Zhou Kui stepped forward, endured the nausea in his heart, and carefully observed the remains of the white-haired zombie with a flashlight again.

"This guy was burned into a pile of black charcoal by the real fire of the senior brother just now, and he has changed beyond recognition, and he can't see anything." Zhou Kui frowned and said in a very disgusted tone.

The white rat spirit was hovering next to the zombie head, he suddenly noticed something, and hurriedly said to Zhou Kui: "Come and take a look, there seems to be something wrong here!" ”

Hearing this, Zhou Kui cautiously stepped over the zombie body and turned to the side of his head.

"His head was burned like a briquette by the real fire of Samadhi, so tell me what's wrong?" Zhou Kui asked disappreciatively.

The white rat spirit raised his little paw, signaled Zhou Kui to lower the mobile phone, and focused the flashlight on the back of his head.

"If you look closely, is there a very obvious depression in the small area from the back of his head to his right ear?"

Zhou Kui turned the flashlight to the brightest brightness, squatted down, and leaned closer to take a closer look.

"Your eyes are amazing, if I don't look closer, I won't be able to detect this dent." Zhou Kui said with some admiration.

The white rat spirit climbed onto Zhou Kui's shoulder, and said with a solemn expression: "This dent looks very much like it was caused by an external force." ”

"Isn't that easy? It must have been the elder brother who injured the back of his head while fighting with zombies! ”

The rat spirit disagreed with Zhou Kui's speculation, and he jumped onto the zombie's head and stuck his slender claws into the dent on the back of his head.

"A deep hole that makes it effortless to touch the brainstem of a zombie."

Zhou Kui finally realized that something was wrong, he looked at the white rat spirit and said his bold conjecture: "Judging from the size and depth of this hole, it doesn't look like it was done by man. Lao Bai, if you think about it, what can easily break through the human skull like an electric drill and go directly into the brain tissue, anyway, I can't think of it. ”

"It's not human, it's supernatural forces!" The white rat spirit said thoughtfully.

Zhou Kui nodded and said approvingly: "In my opinion, the reason why Li Si became a white-haired zombie must be inextricably linked with this hole in the back of his head!" ”

"I remember that Li Laohan said that his son died in the middle of the night last night, but he didn't say the specific cause of death and how it happened."

There are too few clues at the moment, and no matter how much Zhou Kui wants to break his head, he can't find a reasonable explanation.

"Only after we go up, then we will find a way to ask Li Laohan and Village Chief Lin."

In the narrow and dark cave, the air was extremely turbid, and the stench of corpses was everywhere, and the white rat spirit reminded Zhou Kui: "There may be a lot of dead corpses in this cave, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

Zhou Kui couldn't help wrinkling his nose, his stomach turned over the river, and he almost wanted to gag.

The words were divided into two ends, Guo Jia stood next to the mound, hesitating to go down to the cave to find Zhou Kui, he threw a palm-sized tomb brick into the cave, trying to estimate the approximate depth of the cave by echoing.

Paradoxically, after more than ten minutes, Guo Jia never heard the echo of falling rocks.

"Damn, how deep is this cave! It can't be a bottomless pit, right? ”

The refreshing night breeze blew through the mountains, blowing the dead branches and leaves on the Green Snake Ridge, adding a bit of gloom to this mysterious and lonely dark world.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, let's go down and take a look!"

Guo Jia made up his mind, and he gave Master a brief report on WeChat about what happened tonight.

Before Qingyang Daoist could reply, Guo Jia put his mobile phone back into his robe, he stood on tiptoe, stepped on the soft mound of sealed soil, and looked at the hole under his feet that exuded a cool air, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat the size of a bean.

"The entrance to the cave is too narrow to fly with Edgeworth, so it looks like I'll have to jump straight down."

Guo Jia closed his eyes, took a step forward with his right foot, and the whole person instantly fell into a bottomless black hole.

Speaking of Zhou Kui's side, he held his mobile phone and moved cautiously in the cramped cave, and the sound of clattering and clattering kept coming from under his feet.

The white rat poked out his head and said in a frightened tone, "I'll go, so many skeletons!" ”

Zhou Kui shone the flashlight on the ground, and the scene in front of him couldn't help but make him gasp.

As far as the eye can see, the ground is covered with white bones, some of which are still partially broken with their bodies, and some of the bones are even broken, which is unbearable to look at.

Zhou Kui's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and he desperately wanted to know: What happened in this dark cave?
