Not only that, but the distance between the walls of the cave is also much larger, which shows that the cave has become very wide by the time it has just arrived.

Qi Buchen subconsciously opened his eyes and wanted to find out, but what he saw was indeed dark. The water here has become much colder, and Qi Buchen has been soaking for a long time, and even feels a little biting.

He knew he had to pick up the pace, as the tightness in his chest had grown. Now there are two choices in front of Qi Buchen, either turn around and go back and lose all your efforts. Either move on, life and death are unpredictable.

Qi Buchen pondered for a while, but still decided to swim back, even if it was fate, but his fate was his own. Having made up his mind, he turned around and swam back, but he didn't expect that he had just swam far before he reached out and touched a stone wall. Qi Buchen hurriedly swam left and right, but all he could touch was the hard and cold stone wall, and he couldn't find the way he came!

He was stunned for a moment, he obviously swam all the way along the cave wall, and there was no turn and no difference between up and down during the period, how could this be!

Qi Buchen couldn't help but be a little flustered, and began to look more hurriedly, but he felt that he was spinning in circles in place when he touched it. At the same time, the long period of holding his breath, coupled with the nervousness, already made Qi Buchen feel that he was about to be unable to hold on.

He had no choice but to continue swimming. Qi Buchen felt that his face had begun to turn red, and he swam as hard as he could. But there seems to be no end to this waterway.

After swimming for a while, Qi Buchen couldn't hold it anymore, and spit it out in one breath, and a series of bubbles suddenly erupted from the water. He hurriedly covered his mouth, if he couldn't help but inhale now, then this was his burial place.

Holding on for another distance, Qi Buchen had begun to despair, and just as he was about to give up, suddenly his hand touched something hard, and he grabbed it with his hand, as if it were a stone edge.

Qi Buchen was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately pulled up, but he didn't expect to rush out of the water all of a sudden. Qi Buchen didn't care about anything else, and immediately opened his mouth and gasped for breath. It took a while for his breath to calm again.

Qi Buchen looked around, but still couldn't see anything. He reached out and touched the stone he had just touched, and then stretched out his arm to probe, only to find that it seemed to be a stone platform. He pushed hard and jumped up.

Qi Buchen opened the oilcloth bag around his waist and took out a fire fold from it. This kind of oilcloth bag is made by soaking the brocade in tung oil and drying it, so that the water cannot penetrate it at all, and it can keep the contents dry.

Qi Buchen looked around with a fire and found that this was a confined space. Judging from the route he had just traveled, he knew that he was far away from the river. Judging from the situation here, this place should be built by man, Qi Buchen's heart moved, and he secretly speculated, "Could it be that this is an ancient tomb?" ”

Qi Buchen noticed that the water on the outside of the stone platform was not static, indicating that the waterway here was connected to other places. There were a large number of broken wooden planks and canvases scattered on and around the stone platform, Qi Buchen squatted down, picked up some and looked at them, and couldn't help but suddenly think, "It turned out to be the black groove cargo ship that disappeared back then, I didn't expect it to come here, no wonder I can't find it anyway!" But how did it get here? As he spoke, Qi Buchen looked at the waterway from which he came.

Suddenly, Qi Buchen was stunned, his face immediately changed, and he threw down the things in his hand and stood up. He raised the fire fold in his hand and looked into the depths of the stone platform.

The stone platform was much larger than it looked, stretching into the depths of darkness.

Although Qi Buchen has been ruthless and has done a lot of murder and blood over the years, it is the first time he has seen such a scene today. He took a deep breath and held the dagger across his chest. Pick up the fire fold and slowly walk towards the depths of the stone platform.

After taking a few steps forward, an arched doorway appeared in front of me. There were some symbols and motifs carved on it, and Qi Buchen glanced at it, but did not understand the meaning at all, so he walked through the arch and went inside.

Passing through the arch, there is a larger space. By the light of the beating fire, Qi Buchen saw something standing not far ahead. He walked over cautiously and found that it was a stone statue, but the shape of the stone statue was a little strange, and the shape of the body should be a dragon, but there was a human face carved in the position of the dragon's head.

Qi Buchen had never seen such a strange stone figurine, so he held the fire fold closer so that he could see it clearly.

At this time, he saw that the face of the dragon head was not only carved with facial features, but also delicately engraved with expressions. And this expression made Qi Buchen can't help but take a breath of cold air.

The eyes on the man's face were crooked, revealing an eerie and mysterious smile.

I don't know if it's the reason why the fire fold is beating brightly, Qi Buchen suddenly felt that the eyes of the dragon's head face seemed to move. He pulled his hand back and couldn't help but take a step back. Qi Buchen stared vigilantly at the stone statue in front of him, but the stone statue did not move at all.

"I really scared myself." Qi Buchen sighed and shook his head. Turning his head, he saw a similar stone statue in the darkness not far from the side, which should be the same as this one.

Qi Buchen walked around the stone statue and went deeper, and a stone gate appeared not far in front of him, and there was a stone table in front of the stone gate.

Qi Buchen walked to the stone gate, stretched out his hand and pushed it, but the stone door did not move at all, it seemed that it had not been opened for a long time. He turned his head to look at the stone table again, and at this glance, his heart suddenly trembled.

Qi Buchen stepped over, leaned down and looked at the middle of the stone table, where there was a trace of something that had been spared, and from the outline, it was obvious that there was a square thing that had been placed here before.

Combined with the wreckage of the Wuchu cargo ship he saw just now, four words suddenly appeared in Qi Buchen's mind: Dragon Pattern Secret Box!

If the Dragon Crate was placed here before, where has it gone now! And who put it here? Qi Buchen stretched out his hand and touched it, the traces on the stone table were still very new, and it was obvious that the stone box had just been taken away.

Qi Buchen got up with some annoyance and looked to both sides. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw something move in the direction of the stone statue.

Thinking of the strange expression on the dragon's head's face, Qi Buchen shuddered a little, he immediately turned his head to look in that direction, and walked over slowly.

Just as he walked up to the statue, a thick object suddenly hung down from the top of the statue.

Qi Buchen let out a low cry in fright and immediately retreated, but after all, he was not an idle person, he had been galloping the rivers and lakes for many years, and he had seen all kinds of scenes. Qi Buchen gritted his teeth and immediately put the short knife across his chest.

But he stabilized his body, and when he looked closely, he realized that it was a human leg hanging down.

Qi Buchen looked up, and saw a figure squatting on top of the stone statue.

"Pounced", and the figure also lit up a fire fold, and a smiling human face was revealed, "I'm sorry to scare you, haha." ”

Qi Buchen was shocked to find that the person above turned out to be Mr. Storyteller.

"You!" Qi Buchen was frightened and couldn't help but be a little annoyed. "Why are you here!"

Mr. Storyteller got up and jumped down from the stone statue, then raised something in his hand, "I'm looking for this!" ”

Qi Buchen looked over and found that what the storyteller was holding in his hand was a stone box engraved with dragon patterns! His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he raised the short knife in his hand, "Hand over the stone box!" I will spare you from death! ”

The storyteller wasn't scared, just smiled slightly, "Oh, you're quite confident now, is it because you haven't been drinking?" ”

Qi Buchen saw that he was teasing himself with what he had done before, his face was a little unbearable, and he scolded, so he waved his short knife and pounced.

Mr. Storyteller is dexterous in dodging, and it is obviously not an ordinary skill. Qi Buchen couldn't do anything to him for a while.

Just as the two of them were circling, the stone gate next to them suddenly made a "boom" sound, as if something had hit it.

The two of them stopped at the same time, and the indifferent smile that Mr. Storyteller had just hung on his face also retracted at this time, and he stared at the stone door deadly, and then extinguished the fire in his hand. Qi Buchen didn't know why, but he also followed the example of a storyteller to extinguish the fire and hide his body in the dark, he looked at the stone door with some fear, and asked in a low voice, "What is that?" But the storyteller did not answer.

The inside of the stone gate also quieted down at this time, neither of them moved, and Qi Buchen forgot to snatch the secret box in the storyteller's hand for a while.

After a while, Qi Buchen rekindled the fire and walked cautiously towards the stone gate.

During the whole process, there was a dead silence around, except for the breathing of two people, there was no sound. Qi Buchen stood in front of the stone gate for a while, still without any abnormality. He turned to look at the storyteller, who just shrugged at him.

Qi Buchen looked at the secret box in his hand, then at the stone door in front of him, thought for a moment, and then slowly put his ear to the door.

Qi Buchen held his breath and listened carefully to the movement inside, through the stone door he heard the sound of the water, and strangely, there was a special movement in the middle of the sound of the water, as if something was gently hitting and moving.

Qi Buchen couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, how could there be something moving in such an underground ruin that had been buried for an unknown number of years? Especially the shocking impact just now, which made him feel even more incredible.

Qi Buchen could hear it, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. A person like him has a very keen sense, and Qi Buchen realized that something seemed to be behind him, "Could it be that Mr. Storyteller wants to take the opportunity to sneak up on him?" The thought immediately crossed his mind.

Qi Buchen turned his head suddenly, and found that the storyteller was standing not far from his side, looking at him with a wary face.
