Chapter 45: Cave Horror
Liu Yunwen panicked, and in the dark, she encountered a stone pillar and fell to the ground, and she couldn't help but hold her shoulders with her hands and cry out loud in horror.
Just now, in front of her, she saw the bones of Bai Sensen.
The torches that fell to the ground continued to burn, and the light of the fire illuminated the surroundings.
It took a while for Liu Yunwen to stop crying, but she was still in shock. The fright just now was so great for her that her heart seemed to burst out of her mouth. She calmed down, picked up the torch and walked back, just walked a few steps and couldn't help stopping, there was no way out behind, what could she do when she walked back? Dead. Now it is only by moving forward that it is possible to have hope for life. But the situation in front of her made her so frightened and frightened, and now she was still trembling slightly.
Strictly speaking, Liu Yunwen is still just a child, and it is impossible for her to be afraid of such a terrifying scene. Now there were two paths in front of her that forced her to choose, one was to keep going, looking for a way out of life, and the other was to sit and wait for death, because there was no way out behind her or around her.
Liu Yunwen sat on the ground, and her mind calmed down. She couldn't help but think of her brother Liu Jingwen in her heart, if her brother was here at this moment, she wouldn't be so afraid, a helpless anxiety and uneasiness burned in her heart.
Liu Yunwen sat on the ground and hesitated for a long time, but in the end, the unique bloodiness of a soldier in the blood of her body defeated the fear in her heart! Even if there are any ghosts in the world, instead of sitting here and being scared to death, it is better to go out and fight!
Liu Yunwen's ambition paused, stood up and took the torch and walked forward. Although she was still scared in her heart, she was not as scared as she was just now. People are like this, but there is no way back in a desperate situation, no matter how dangerous the front is, they can only move forward without looking back.
Liu Yunwen walked to the place just now, but subconsciously stopped. The scene in front is too tragic and terrifying, from the front of the eyes straight inside, the ground is full of complete bones, some of the clothes on the bones are still intact, Liu Yunwen recognized that it was the clothes of officers and soldiers in the Qing Dynasty, which she had seen on some TV, and there was a weapon next to each corpse, or spear, or big knife.
Liu Yunwen held the torch and walked forward among the white bones, she didn't dare to close her eyes, then she would probably touch the bones on the ground. Walking in these white bones, Liu Yunwen's heart was very nervous. If she made any noise at this time, she would be scared half to death.
I'm really afraid of anything, and suddenly there is a "bell!" from behind! ""Bang" two loud noises, if these two sounds are usually not too loud, but at this moment this is tantamount to two loud noises, which is really scary.
Liu Yunwen screamed in fright, closed her eyes, and stood there motionless. After a few moments, there was silence in the cave. Only then did she open her eyes and turn around to look back, and the bone arm that had been lying on the stone suddenly fell apart, and the long knife that was pressed fell to the ground with it.
Liu Yunwen let out a long breath and patted her heart with her hand.
These intact bones were placed for more than a hundred meters, and it seemed that they had not gone through a fierce fight, but rather that they had suddenly died in a queue. So how did they suddenly die together?
Liu Yunwen finally walked more than 100 meters, and when she looked back at the white bones in that place, she couldn't help but think of the Qing soldiers who mysteriously disappeared overnight in the temple more than 100 years ago. How did they come to this cave, and how did they die?
Liu Yunwen didn't have time to think about this, she had to find the entrance and way out as soon as possible. She held the torch and looked carefully as she walked forward, but there were steep cliffs on both sides, and there was no possibility of climbing up.
There was a white skeleton lying on the ground in front of her, and she was no longer afraid of this Liu Yunwen, what she was really afraid of was that there was no way to go in front of her, and there were smooth and high stone cliffs on three sides. There's not even a place to climb! Her heart was freezing cold.
Liu Yunwen stood for a while, she didn't give up, she didn't believe that there was no way out of this cave? Didn't the little white rabbit and the python go out from above? So she searched the cliff with a torch, fantasizing that she would find a mechanism or something that would allow her to escape from the cave. As a result, she was very disappointed, except for finding a piece of writing on the stone wall next to the white bones, she didn't find anything, and Liu Yunwen felt what despair was.
Strangely, she obviously felt hopeless, she couldn't get out of this cave again, and her heart was no longer afraid and panicked. She kicked the white bone away with her foot, crouched down and carefully looked at the writing on the stone wall by the light of the fire.
These words are supposed to have been engraved by the man before he died.
It is recorded in the text that this person's name is Wu Tianbao, who was a hundred leaders of the Xizhou garrison in the Qing Dynasty. On the morning of 6 July, he received a secret order from above, asking him to take 40 soldiers to the county government office to cooperate with the officials in carrying out a top-secret mission. When he arrived at the county office, he learned that someone had come to the county government to report the case, saying that he had found the treasure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom thieves in Jiufeng Mountain. The county magistrate will send ten officials to live with them.
In the evening of the same day, a group of people, led by the informant, came to the temple hidden deep in the mountains and settled down. In the middle of the night, they did not alarm the people in the temple and followed the informant quietly to the cave, and for this treasure hunt, they made a lot of torches at the bottom of the mountain, and brought them out together.
The informant opened the door of the cave under the cliff, and told them that the treasure of the thief was in it. When the soldiers heard that there was indeed a hidden treasure of thieves here, they were all excited, and they lit torches and poured into the cave.
They searched every part of the cave and found no treasure, and when they went to the informant, they found that the man had not come into the cave with them at all, and had sealed the entrance to the cave tightly.
The crowd panicked, and no matter what they tried, they could not open the hole. Wu Tianbao then ordered everyone to return to the cave and split up to find another exit. There is no other exit from the whole cave, and it is surrounded by cliffs dozens of feet high, and there is no place to climb.
They came out with nothing, without food, drink or a way out, and many cried out in despair. What's even more terrifying is that at this time, a golden python came out of nowhere, wandering around them incessantly, and the people who were sucked by it fell to the ground and died one after another, and the swords and guns slashed at it could not hurt it at all.
After reading this text, Liu Yunwen was also shocked. She couldn't understand why the informant had set up such a scam and locked up this team of officers and soldiers in this cave.
It wasn't until many years later that Liu Yunwen learned that the mysterious disappearance had a lot to do with his father's family.
