"That being said, why can't we spend the night here, if the tide rises then we're going to be doomed." Feng Long didn't quite agree with Zhou Fan's approach, and he couldn't help but be a little worried after seeing the soft and slightly moist sand under his feet.

"I also know, but today we are already tired for a day, we can't go on like this, otherwise our physical strength will be overdrawn, and if something happens in the future, it will be difficult for them to deal with..."

"But..."

Feng Long couldn't help but interrupt Zhou Fan's words, but Zhou Fan also didn't let him speak, "I know what you're worried about, but you see" After saying that, Zhou Fan pointed to the side of the wall, and everyone saw this and hurriedly shone it with a flashlight, but everyone didn't see anything, only to see that the walls were dark caves, each of which was bottomless.

Zimeng didn't like Zhou Fan's tone the most, and immediately said a little angrily: "Don't choke and hide, what do you mean?" ”

"Come and see." Zhou Fan was not angry when he saw Zimeng like this, he walked to the wall on the side, and shone the light with a flashlight, just when everyone was puzzled.

Zhou Fan spoke: "This wall has grown moss because it has been washed by the river for a long time, but if you take a closer look, this cave is more than ten meters high, and the position of the moss is only two meters below, and the part above is all very dry, so now you understand." ”

"No wonder, in that case, it should be fine, but you're sure the cavern up there is quiet." Feng Long touched it with his hand, and after the mossy wall, he immediately knew what Zhou Fan wanted to express.

Just when everyone was quietly waiting for the two to reply, Zimeng spoke again, he really couldn't stand this pretending to be mysterious, "What, no wonder, what kind of dumb riddle are you two playing, make it clear." ”

"Damn, I thought you understood." Seeing this, Zhou Fan still looked puzzled, and couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

"What he means is that we can go up there and rest tonight, this underground river will not be able to flood it even if the tide rises." Feng Long motioned for everyone to look at the wall a little higher, "You see, this wall is two meters below a thick layer of moss, which proves that the underground river next to it often rises at high tides.

And this place has also been flooded for a long time, so the entire wall has a thick layer of moss, but you found no, this layer of moss is only less than two meters high, which means that the location above is the place where the underground river cannot be submerged, Zhou Fan means that we can go to the cave above to rest tonight. ”

"So that's the case, you two didn't say it earlier, I'll go, what kind of pass is it, cut." As soon as Feng Long's words fell, he heard Zimeng's voice ringing on the side.

Zhou Fan glanced at Zimeng, who was speechless, and pointed to a big hole in the wall and said: "Okay, you don't talk about the wind and cold, unload the equipment first, you go up and have a look, there are more than ten meters high, you don't have to go up to the top, just go to the largest karst cave in the middle to have a look, and throw the rope down after making sure it is safe, why don't you spend the night there tonight." ”

"Brother Zhou Fan, go up to the rock wall to rest, is this okay, isn't it a little too risky." Lu Tianyuan watched Zimeng climb the steep rock wall with his bare hands, and couldn't help but tremble.

"It's okay, even if there is danger above, he can jump down directly, and he can't stay below at all, and I don't know if the tide will rise at night, so we can't take the risk and go to rest above, this is the most compromise way." Zhou Fan looked at Zimeng while staring at the tumbling underground river, and carefully took Qing'er to a relatively high rock and quietly waited for Zimeng's response.

Knock knock, just when everyone was worried about Zimeng, suddenly the passage where everyone came down just now was a sound, and the rubble on the ceiling was shaken down a lot, "Zimeng be careful, you hide in one of the holes first." ”

After Zhou Fan yelled at Zimeng, he pulled out the ancient sword with his backhand, and jumped forward one by one after giving Qing'er to Duxue, and struck the stalactite that fell from the top of the cave with one sword.

The stalactites the size of half a body were broken into seven or eight pieces by Zhou Fan's sword, and the two of them also carefully protected Qing'er and Duxue behind them, Zhou Fan's series of actions can be described as a lightning move, and several people didn't react, and Zhou Fan had already landed.

Just when everyone was worried that the stalactites on the top of the cave would continue to fall, the vibration suddenly stopped, and then a clicking sound sounded, Zhou Fan immediately looked up when he heard it, only to see a rope falling from the top of the cave.

The stone pillar cave they came down from before was gone, and a few people swept it up with a flashlight and found no trace of the hole at all, and some only thigh-thick stalactites hung upside down on it.

"What's the matter, the entrance to the cave is closed, and the rope has been cut, how can you get out later?" After Tianyou flashlight swept it again, he saw that he still didn't find the hole, and he couldn't help but feel anxious from the bottom of his heart.

Everyone at this time, you look at it, I look at you, they don't know what to do, after each of them glanced at each other, they all looked at Zimeng, "Zimeng, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, don't worry, damn it, it won't be an earthquake, I'll be scared to death." When Zimeng heard Zhou Fan shouting underground, he immediately poked his head out, swept the dust on his head, and replied unhappily.

Zhou Fan heard Zimeng's reply and continued to shout: "That's good, you be careful, in addition, the point above your head is the cave, you get a torch and throw it into the cave now, if there is a living creature in it, it will also be scared out by the fire, and you will go up after confirming that there is no living creature after a while." ”

"Got it." After Zimeng shouted below, he began to stir up torches, fortunately, the torches brought by everyone were all convenient, a torch was divided into three sections, as long as you brought a small bottle of gasoline and a lighter, you can light the torch.

Although Zimeng is usually a little out of the way, he is still very diligent in doing things, and he made the torch in three or two clicks, only to see Zimeng carefully come out of the cave where he was hiding, holding a burning torch on the left and right, and a short dagger in his right hand.

As soon as Zimeng came out of the cave sideways, the dagger in his right hand was slammed into the wall door, Zimeng had a dagger as a point to borrow, and the whole person turned directly from the cave where he was originally hiding to the cave next to him.

At this time, the huge karst cave eight or nine meters high from Zhou Fan and the others was on top of Zimeng's head, and it was less than two meters away from the cave where he was staying

Everyone watched the fire in the cave burn until the fire was completely extinguished, and everyone did not see any living creatures coming out of the cave, which made a group of people feel a lot more relieved, Zimeng leaned on the entrance of the cave and flashed a flashlight towards Zhou Fan, but saw Zhou Fan nodding at him.

Seeing this, Zimeng immediately knew that there was no danger above, shook off the dust on his body, and climbed on the rock wall with his bare hands, and after a while Zimeng came to the huge karst cave, but before the children could come to their senses, they were startled by the scene in front of them, and suddenly their steps were unsteady, and they fell backwards.

"Be careful." Feng Long had been watching Zimeng, and when he saw that he didn't know why he was retreating, he immediately reminded him, because Zimeng was about to fall off it if he took another step or two.

Zimeng heard the sound from the low sealing dragon, and reacted instantly, his body stopped in his tracks, and the moment he stopped, he looked back, and he didn't feel that cold sweat left on his forehead, "You guys come up first, there is a big discovery here." ”

Zhou Fan frowned unconsciously, and after a pause, he said: "Brother Lu, you go first, Tianyou and Fenglong follow, Qing'er Duxue, you wait, wait for them, and then pull you up." ”

After speaking, Zhou Fan looked at Lu Tianyuan, although Lu Tianyuan didn't know why Zhou Fan let him go first, but he calculated that Zhou Fan would not harm him, and there was Zimeng above, even if Zhou Fan wanted to harm him, he should let him be the queen.

The moment he figured it out, Lu Tianyuan was also very sharp, grabbed the rope and began to climb up, and after a while, Lu Tianyuan also came to the cave to join Zimeng, but he was also frightened when he first came up, fortunately, Zimeng had already been prepared, and grabbed him to death, so that Lu Tianyuan did not fall.

After Lu Tianyuan went up, Tianyou Fenglong also climbed up one after another, and then the four of them worked together to pull Qing'er and Duxue up, Zhou Fan watched from the bottom that everyone had arrived at the cave safely, but he didn't follow immediately, but slowly walked to the side of the underground river.

took out a small bottle of bright red blood from his backpack, opened it and sprinkled it on the river, Zhou Fan immediately retreated after doing all this, until he retreated to the rock wall, quietly looking at the river.

The tumbling underground river, after Zhou Fan sprinkled a small bottle of blood, the river immediately became more turbulent, and small huge waves rolled on the surface of the river, and everyone watched Zhou Fan's strange movements on it, and they didn't know what was going on, but they didn't bother him.

Everyone continued to look towards the water, only to see that a huge head was revealed in the rolling waves, like a whale and a giant tiger, and suddenly freed up the water's sharp teeth and bit at the position where Zhou Fan sprinkled blood, but after the giant beast didn't bite anything, it dived into the bottom again.

Zhou Fan was also taken aback when he saw this, he didn't want to grab the rope and climb the wall, and after a while he came to the cave.

Now Zhou Fan finally understood why Zimeng was retreated just now, it turned out that this cave was a secret room at all, but he didn't know why the wall behind was broken through a hole.

At this time, there was a huge stone door in front of Zhou Fan, and there was a half-human-high bronze statue in the middle of the stone door, and the statue's eyes were glowing with a dim light, staring at the people at the entrance of the cave like a wolf in the night.
