Chapter 221: The Pit of the Dead
In the past, Xue Rou also liked Han Dongchi a lot, and felt that Ye Wenxiu was arrogant and arrogant, and even had no one in his eyes, compared the two, Han Dongchi threw Ye Wenxiu ten streets in terms of cultivation, etiquette, treatment of people, and even getting along with others. But today, although Han Dongchi simply said these two words of dissatisfaction, Xue Rou had no way to treat him as before.
Whether it is a friend or a husband and wife, the most important thing is to negotiate, if you can't even be honest, but secretly hide all your bad in your heart, after a long time, it will inevitably explode. And years of friendship will also fall apart at this moment. The most important thing is that this friendship was not pure from the beginning. Even if Han Dongji didn't say it. But Xue Rou could also see it. He only tolerated it in every possible way because Ye Wenxiu was the prefect's son and was beneficial to them.
"Shall we go over and help?" In the end, it's a companion, and suddenly there is one missing, and it's not good if it's next to the sleeve. Yuan Junfeng glanced around, only to see that this road was unremarkable, and there was nothing unusual with the neighborhood, how could Han Dongchi, a big living person, suddenly disappear, unless, there were other people in the forest, Han Dongchi was taken away by that person.
"Fang Changming, what did you see just now?" Fang Changming was also helping to find someone, and when he heard this, he raised his head, "No, I wasn't at the back just now." After speaking, he subconsciously looked at Ye Wenxiu, and Yuan Jun was clear, "Ye Gongzi, have you seen anything?" ”
"No, I was a little ahead of him, and by the time I heard the movement and turned my head to look, he was gone." That's weird. Yuan Junfeng pulled Xue Rou forward, "Tell me where she suddenly disappeared." Ye Wenxiu stopped, thought carefully, turned his head to look at the other side and fell into deep thought. Seeing this, Yuan Jun followed her line of sight. Xue Rou wanted to follow, but Yuan Junfeng stopped her, "You wait for me over there." Be careful, there are dangers. ”
"Not good. I'm going to be with you. If there is something, we can still have more company. Xue Rou disagreed, stubbornly followed, Yuan Junfeng was helpless, so he had to hold her, if there was anything in case, he would stand up for him as soon as possible. A few people launched a carpet search nearby, not letting go of any clues, and after looking for a few times, they didn't find anything unusual, just when everyone was almost desperate, Xue Rou's intuitive eyes were dark, and before he had time to shout for help, he fell into a hole with Yuan Junfeng. The dark cave couldn't see anything clearly, Xue Rou was scared, and pulled Yuan Junfeng's hand hard.
"Don't worry, let's see what this is." Yuan Junfeng leaned on the wall, groping a little bit, the wall behind him was full of soil, pitted, like a cave, and it seemed to be dug out by man, he remembered that he used to hunt in the mountains behind the village, and the pit he dug was also like this, it was difficult for them to be underground. Did they inadvertently fall into a trap set by the hunters?
"Brother Yuan, Miss Xue, is that you?" Han Dongchi slowly got up from the ground, and his uneasy heart kept in his throat. Holding his hand on the ground, he felt that there was something on the ground very much, picked one up and touched it carefully, and when he realized what it was, he screamed and stood up suddenly, "Bones, we are full of dead people's bones under our feet." ”
"Han Dongchi, you are also here." Xue Rou was not as scared as she was just now, instead she was curious, and pulled Yuan Junfeng to swant to squat down to check the situation. Yuan Junfeng stopped, "Don't touch it, he's right, our feet are full of dead people's bones." If I'm not mistaken, this is supposed to be a trap dug by hunters at first, but I don't know when, it turned into a dead man's pit for the dead. ”
"The Dead Man's Pit?" Xue Rou thought that there were human lives under her feet, and jumped directly on Yuan Junfeng, "Let's quickly find a way to get out of here." I don't want to stay here anymore. ”
"Okay." Yuan Junfeng smiled dotingly, leaning on the wall and touching it slowly, Xue Rou was puzzled, "What are you touching, let's fall from above, even if there is a mechanism, it should be on it." Besides, you also said that this is a dead man's pit, and those people don't want them to go up when they send the corpses here, and if there is a mechanism down there, if someone is lucky enough to survive, won't it ruin their good deeds? ”
"You're right, I wanted to fork it just now." Stopped what he was doing, and was about to try to shout a few words to see if he could hear it from above, when Xue Rou suddenly opened his mouth, "Han Dongchi, there is one thing I am curious about, I don't know if I can ask you?" ”
"Miss Xue is polite, we have known each other for some time, and I thought I would treat you as friends in the morning, and between friends, there is nothing you can't ask. Let's just say it. If I can answer, I will know everything; Xue Rou smiled, "It's actually very simple, but if you don't want to answer, you can not answer." After a pause, "Are all the words you said to Ye Wenxiu just now true?" ”
"What do you mean?" Han Dongchi didn't expect Xue Rou to want to ask this, and subconsciously dodged after being surprised. Xue Rou couldn't see his expression clearly, and when she saw her asking, she said it again, in fact, he wasn't gossiping, nor was he concerned about anyone, but he was just curious. What is a person who has been hidden for many years and suddenly exploded? She's just curious about this.
"Is Miss Xue concerned about Brother Ye?" Xue Rou only felt a chill on her back, something was wrong, turned her head to look, only to see Yuan Junfeng's face gloomy, staring at her coldly, Xue Rou thought of something, smiled awkwardly, "That, I'm just curious, purely curious, if it's inconvenient to say it, forget it, let's hurry up and find a way to get out." ”
"There's nothing inconvenient, I really take Brother Ye as a friend, it's just ...... People are always greedy, especially when you want to get it, but you can't get it, you see that the people around you can easily get what you want, you will feel unfair, unwilling, and even jealous. That's what I am. But before today, I never wanted his life. ”
Xue Rou smiled knowingly, not saying anything. Pulling Yuan Junfeng to take two steps forward, he raised his head and shouted loudly, "Ye Wenxiu, Fang Changming, can you hear us?" ”
"It doesn't have to be so loud, you can hear it." Ye Wenxiu's cold voice came, Xue Rou heard the words, the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, just hear it. Han Dongchi on the side changed his face, raised his head meaningfully, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything after all. "Ye Wenxiu, you look carefully on it to see if there is a mechanism or something, hurry up and save us." Yuan Junfeng thought about it and added, "Be careful, it's best to find them one by one, if it falls, we still have a glimmer of hope, otherwise, we are afraid that we will ......" Yuan Junfeng glanced at the dark surroundings, his eyes slightly darkened.
Ye Wenxiu asked Fang Changming to wait on the side, he stood alone in the place where Yuan Junfeng disappeared, looking for it little by little, time passed little by little, I don't know how long it took, Ye Wenxiu still had no clues, and the people underground and above began to be anxious, "You take a closer look at what strange things are nearby, this trap has been many years, and that organ must be very hidden and inconspicuous." ”
Humble? Ye Wenxiu suddenly thought of something, stepped forward quickly, pressed it on a raised pebble, and with a bang, a big crack appeared next to it, and the cave immediately brightened. Yuan Junfeng glanced down at the dense bones under his feet, picked up Xue Rou and flew out directly. Han Dongji followed. "It's strange how there is a dead man's pit here, and so many people are dead. I've never heard of it before. ”
"You are a native of Liuzhou Mansion, and you haven't heard anything about barren mountains before?" Yuan Junfeng tidied up his clothes and prepared to ask Ye Wenxiu to close the cave. "No, I've never heard of it. All we know is that there is such a barren mountain here, it seems that no one has been here since I was a child, it has been more than ten years, and looking at the bones in this cave, it must have been many years. I don't know who these people are and how they died here. ”
"Whoever it is, it has nothing to do with us, close the mechanism, let's get out of here." Just now, I don't know if it's an illusion, Yuan Junfeng seems to have heard the bird's call again, exactly the same as what he heard just now, could it be that the bird has been following them? Thinking of this, Yuan Junfeng felt that his scalp was numb. I don't want to stay here for a moment.
"Don't you think this dead man's pit is very strange? Don't you want to know what's going on? Ye Wenxiu suddenly became stubborn, Han Dongchi wanted to persuade him, took two steps forward, Ye Wenxiu saw this, and subconsciously stepped back, looking like he didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. Han Dongchi lowered his head in frustration and didn't speak.
"Haven't you heard a word? The more we know, the more we die, and now we know enough, and the more we ......, "Don't talk about today, I'm afraid I won't leave here for the rest of my life." "Listen to me, if you still want this little life, leave with me now, otherwise, if something happens, don't expect me to save you."
Ye Wenxiu was unwilling, but he could only close the organ, although he was not as alert as Yuan Junfeng, but he knew in his heart that this matter was not simple, and now there were only a few people left, if they insisted on investigating...... Maybe you will really lose your life, so you might as well go out first, go back and tell your father, and then send someone over. After figuring it out, Ye Wenxiu's face looked a little better.
"In that case, let's go."
"Wait a minute." Ye Wenxiu took out the map and carefully compared the mountain roads here, and always felt that something was wrong, according to the location of the Big Dipper, they should be by a small river now, why are they in a place full of trees all around, in addition, this position on the map, there is a wasteland nearby, there is not a single tree, what is going on?
