Volume 10
Nineteen dangerous breaths
In this pitch-black hole. There is a smell of horror and death everywhere. It seems that even time and space are suppressed by this terrible aura. Space forgot to move forward. Time forgets and continues to flow everything seems so weird and mysterious. It's like another world. There are unknown and endless dangers. No creature has ever dared to step here. But a few so-called explorers who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth dared to break in
With that low roar in the depths of the cave. An even more terrifying shadow seemed to be cast in the air. Thick cover on everyone. Gradually. Everyone feels that their feet are not listening. The breathing is getting heavier and heavier
"Hey, pretty girl, pretty girl, where are you. Brother waited so anxiously, "Suddenly. Cheng Shuai's extremely out-of-tune and extremely out-of-tune singing voice came from the cave. There was an echo in the cave.
All. Suddenly they were all speechless
"Bump". Xun Qian didn't say a word, and stepped forward to give Cheng Shuai a punch. After the fight, he looked at Hou Min who was also raising his fist in surprise. Hou Min was also stunned after he came to his senses. looked at Cheng Shuai, who was knocked to the ground by himself. Then he looked at the others who were staring at him with wide eyes. smiled awkwardly:
"I sensed his head calling out to my fist to hit him, and I couldn't help but be an absolute lady for a while."
“”
"There is an echo" Cheng Shuai, who was lying on the ground, said this sentence strangely. Then I stood up and kept looking around. I was talking to myself." Sure enough, there was an echo."
For Cheng Shuai, this big living treasure. Except for Zhang Hailin, everyone else has long been surprised. I don't want to pay attention to him at all. Chen Xingye stared at Zhang Hailin intently. The expression is extremely serious. Zhang Hailin occasionally raised his head and looked at him. He immediately looked away. Gu Ling was devastated when she learned of her sister's death. Sit alone on the ground. Looking ahead with empty eyes, Xun Qian and Hou Min hurriedly went over to comfort her. Bi Chengcheng couldn't find anything to do. I accidentally saw Bart lying on the ground curled up in a ball. He swallowed. Walk cautiously over there. I wondered if there really was any dangerous creature. Maybe it's safer to be with Bart, the big wolf. Liu Yibin, a doctor of biology in front of everyone, stood there excitedly. His eyes stared at the low roar just now. Trembling slightly. He desperately wanted to know the answer to the question he had been struggling with in the depths of his heart. But I'm afraid to know. He even had the urge to run over and find out what was going on. This impulsive thought is getting heavier and heavier. Repeatedly struggling in the bottom of his heart. Constantly tempting him. Challenging what little sanity he had left. Finally. He turned his heart sideways. Strengthened resolve. Slowly lift your right leg
"If I were you. I won't do that."
Then. I suddenly remembered Cheng Shuai's voice in my ears. Liu Yibin turned his head. Through the faint light, I saw that he was half-crouching on the ground. Looking at something with a solemn expression. Liu Yibin was a little puzzled. But previous experience told him. Listen to this strange detective. You can't go wrong. Liu Yibin paused. Or retracted the leg. Then he looked at Cheng Shuai in confusion.
"Sure enough, it's not wrong" Cheng Shuai's expression became more solemn. His expression startled Bi Chengcheng. To know. Since he met Cheng Shuai. I've never seen a normal expression on that indecent face for more than ten seconds. For Cheng Shuai's abnormality. Others seem to have noticed it too. They all looked at him curiously. Cheng Shuai looked at the depths of the cave in front of him with a serious expression. Then take a long breath. Raised his right hand and grabbed his hair." Depend on. I don't know if I'm going to hang here. Lao Tzu didn't even give out the first kiss."
"Mr. Tansheng. Can you tell us what's going on?" Zhang Hailin was a little speechless. But Cheng Shuai's reaction made him a little inexplicably scared.
Cheng Shuai turned around. looked at Zhang Hailin repeatedly:
"You've really been living here alone for so many days."
Zhang Hailin swallowed. My face started to sweat constantly. Tremblingly replied:
"Yes"
Cheng Shuai looked at him for a while. Then look away. Looking ahead alone:
"Damn. Really fucking tough other people. If you must move on. Then remember the words of Lao Tzu. Along. No matter what you see. Or hear something. Don't believe it. None of that is true."
"Ahh What do you mean?" Everyone was stunned at the same time. They looked at each other. Liu Yibin couldn't help but ask at first. You mean those two low roars in the cave just now."
"Growl. Are you asking Lao Tzu about the beautiful mountain song he just sang or some other sound?"
"I think I'm asking about some other voice."
"You idiot pig-headed man. I still don't realize the difference between Lao Tzu's beautiful singing voice and that strange cry."
"Difference." Liu Yibin was stunned. Helplessly looked at the others. And answer." What you're saying is that you're singing hard to hear. And that voice is kind of pleasant when you listen closely."
"You're not saved."
Then. Bi Chengcheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Hit a stirring spirit all over the body:
"I see. Echo. It's an echo."
"Echo." Everyone else looked at Bi Chengcheng curiously. Still don't quite understand.
Bi Chengcheng looked at Cheng Shuai. I looked at the others again. Hurriedly said excitedly:
"The Boss's howls just now echoed. And the strange roar from before was not."
Cheng Shuai rushed over and rewarded Bi Chengcheng with a punch. Roared angrily:
"Damn. Lao Tzu is singing. Howl your mother's head."
The crowd was stunned for a while. Suddenly came to his senses." The spatial structure of the cave is such that speaking out loud will inevitably produce echoes. But those two low roars didn't mean that the sound just now was an illusion."
Looking at the people who are already getting more and more afraid to move forward. Cheng Shuai sneered. Then he lowered his head and looked at the dark road ahead:
"From now on. Every step forward. There is a dangerous atmosphere all around us."
Twenty Dragon Sacrifices
A dark and strange aura came from the depths of the cave. While intimidating the expedition members. and tempted them. Curiosity. Perhaps humanity's most terrible enemy. Or maybe the most helpful friend. In that unknown mystery. It's as if there's a gem that emits a faint glow. Fear and hesitation seduce you like a plague in the hearts of every expedition member. But. But no one quit. Because they know. If you give up halfway this time. Then they will regret it for the rest of their lives
After a series of things. Others gradually begin to develop a habit. That is to always pay attention to Cheng Shuai's every move. This hanger should live like a psychotic detective. But again and again on everyone with the invisible. Everyone followed Cheng Shuai carefully. Step by step in the narrow hole. Go deeper into the cave. Time seems to have been stretched several times over. It's been an unusually long time. I don't know how long I walked. People began to notice a strange little movement of Cheng Shuai. Keep looking at the torch in your hand. Finally. Bi Chengcheng couldn't help but ask in a low voice:
"Boss. Is there anything strange about this torch?"
Cheng Shuai glanced back at Bi Chengcheng. He looked at Gu Ling, who was moving cautiously behind everyone. Then he raised his voice and said to Gu Ling in the back:
"Xiao Ling. Don't follow. Go back to Lao Tzu. Go back the way you came."
Xiao Ling was stunned. looked at Cheng Shuai a little sluggishly. Unknown so. Just as she was about to say something. Zhang Hailin and Chen Xingye in front shouted in an excited tone almost at the same time:
"No. She definitely can't go back."
As soon as the two of them spoke. But at the same time, he froze. Then he twisted his face to the side in unison. Avoid the curious gazes of the others. After learning of his sister's death, Xiao Ling was already in a state of despair. Everything in the ancient cave had long since become meaningless to her. Let's be honest. She didn't want to go any further. However, Zhang Hailin and Chen Xingye's reactions made her very puzzled. Why can't I go back?
Cheng Shuai simply stopped. Turned around and glanced at everyone with a hanging-up expression. Finally, his eyes fell on Zhang Hailin. Cheng Shuai tilted his head and walked over. Staring straight at him:
"Say. Why?"
Zhang Hailin's forehead was sweating constantly. Hurriedly look away. Quietly glanced at Chen Xingye. I can't say the answer all the time:
"This and that"
"Lao Tzu couldn't figure it out at first. What do you do in an ancient cave and find a little girl who has nothing to do with and who doesn't help you. It must also be potentially stated that the requirement is a virgin"
"Definitely not what most readers think"
"Less. Tell Lao Tzu the reason directly."
Zhang Hailin couldn't stop wiping his sweat. Swallowing the saliva one by one. But he still refused to explain why. Then. Chen Xingye, who was next to him, said coldly:
"Say it. Get along according to this time. I understand a truth. It's impossible to hide anything from this Mr. Detective."
Zhang Hailin looked at Chen Xingye in surprise. Then he looked at Cheng Shuai, who still looked like a living treasure. Finally let out a long sigh. Slowly open your mouth:
"Do you know the 'Dragon Sacrifice'?"
"'Dragon Festival.'"
"The so-called 'dragon sacrifice' is an extremely secret sacrificial ritual."
Zhang Hailin didn't finish his words. A fist had already knocked him several meters away. Hit the wall of the hole. Everyone else was taken aback. Open your mouth wide and look at the person who made this punch: Cheng Shuai saw Cheng Shuai gritting his teeth. glared at Zhang Hailin and Chen Xingye viciously. Then turn around:
"That's enough. Needless to say. Xiao Ling will go back to Lao Tzu."
Everyone was stunned. They all looked at Cheng Shuai and Zhang Hailin in confusion. Xiao Ling was stunned. looked at Zhang Hailin in confusion. Then he said slowly:
"No. I want to know what happened to my sister."
". Lao Tzu tells you to be obedient. Go back to Lao Tzu."
"No. That's my sister. You don't understand my mood at all."
"Damn. Dead are dead. What's the use of fart. Go back to Lao Tzu."
The others hurried to stop their bickering. At the same time, I was very curious about what Zhang Hailin didn't finish just now. Bi Chengcheng finally couldn't help but ask:
"What the hell is that 'Dragon Festival'?"
"Damn. You idiot shut up. I want to know to go home to Baidu (this is the term I conceived in this book. Readers, don't really go to Baidu)." Cheng Shuai suddenly shouted at Bi Chengcheng. At the same time, Zhang Hailin, who wanted to speak.
"It's fine. Let him say." Gu Ling seemed to see that Cheng Shuai was concerned about his feelings. Said loudly to everyone.
Zhang Hailin hesitated. Finally said slowly:
"It is said that . There is a very mysterious tribe in Yunnan. Once upon a time, this tribe had an extremely developed civilization. It also has all kinds of incredible powers. Legend has it that they have everything. It's all thanks to a magical animal. That tribe in order to thank this animal. Every ten years, a pure girl born in the sun and moon will be selected. Then sacrifice to that animal to eat the legend. The animal has shrimp eyes, antlers, bull's mouth, dog nose, cat's whiskers, lion's mane, snake tail, fish scales, eagle claws, and nine animals in one. It's always been a mystery for the ages. In the recent past, though. It seems to have been discovered by accident."
"It's the depths of this ancient cave."
Zhang Hailin did not reply. Just buried his head down
Gu Ling was stunned for a moment. There was a blank look in his eyes. I couldn't speak for a long time. After a long time. Only then did he read numbly:
"Are we sisters just sacrifices to you?"
