Chapter 182: Cave Treasure Mountain
I couldn't wait to enter the desert basin, put on my gear, and began to walk towards the cave. A few dozen meters ahead, as Vic said, the road is flat and safe. The flashlight prepared by Li Gong is naturally not an ordinary color, and it can be seen clearly at a distance of several hundred meters, under the stone walls on both sides, at intervals, there will be a utensil, which is placed very casually, and I don't know what special meaning it has.
Looking at the utensils up close, there were no duplicates, different postures, and many of them were shapes that I had never seen before. Li Gong and the others just watched, they didn't take it, the things in front of them were precious enough, but when they entered the cave, they saw these, so the things in the depths were not more precious? Besides, things can't be moved casually, who knows if there are traps, Babu and Tian Wei disappeared inexplicably, and even if they want to take it, it's time to wait for it to come out.
Where the light could see, the bodies of Babu and Tian Wei were not found, even if the corpses were decomposed, at least there were still skeletons, and now that they saw nothing, could the two of them go deeper? No longer staying, let Vic walk in the front to open the way, he has reached the destination, his only role is to be a pathfinder, even if he is dead, for Li Gong, there is no loss.
Vic didn't refuse, he was powerless to resist at all, in fact, he wasn't very scared in his heart, maybe it was because of the second time. After walking for another twenty meters or so, all the lights went out in an instant, and the cave was dark, wrapped in an eerie atmosphere, what a familiar feeling. Instinctively, I wanted to go back and escape, so I twisted my body, and stopped, I don't know where I got the courage, and I didn't retreat but moved forward. There is no imaginary horror ahead, except that the road is not flat, everything else is fine.
After a few steps, suddenly there was light, and the hole was very bright, and Vic saw someone walking in front of him, several figures. It's just that further ahead, the passage is no longer straight, there is a certain amplitude, and when I see the figure, the other party has disappeared from sight. Who is the figure that suddenly appeared? Could it be a delusion? Vic wondered if he should catch up, maybe he could get some useful clues. I had this thought, but I didn't catch up with it, because I thought again, where did the sudden light come from? immediately looked back, only to see that the flashlights in the hands of Li Gong and the four of them were all lit.
If the flashlight is on, it means that it is not broken, so why do all the flashlights go out in an instant? It is absolutely impossible to play this kind of prank, there is only one possibility, in the short period of time, something has happened, something incredible. What exactly could it be? Suddenly, Vic's body trembled, and he couldn't hide his fear, there were no ghosts in front of him, just the four of Li Gong, and it was because of the four of them that people were frightened, because there were still five people missing, and they disappeared suddenly, just like the situation when Babu and Tian Wei disappeared at that time. Are the figures you saw just now the five people who disappeared? Or you can't say that it disappeared, but it went forward first. I said before that I was not allowed to act alone, how could the five of them act privately, something must have happened.
Li Gong frowned, he was walking just now, and suddenly fell into the darkness, and hurriedly fiddled with the flashlight, it may be broken, and there is no longer light. Thinking about retreating one after another, there was still a spare flashlight in the car, and without light, it was impossible to move forward at all. I was thinking about retreating, but I suddenly found that something was wrong, there was no sound around him, as if he was the only one, thinking of this, he hurriedly called out the names of several people, but there was no response. If it's just the flashlight going out, at least the person is next to it, and now it seems that it has entered some kind of weird state, so he took out the close-fitting jade Buddha pendant, something handed down by the ancestors, every time he encounters a supernatural thing, he will take it out, not sure if it is useful, it is already an instinctive reaction.
Maybe it was really the jade Buddha pendant that had an effect, and suddenly the surroundings lit up, or was it in place, there was no discomfort in the body, and there was no external injury, and the flashlight was checked, intact, and it was always on, so why did it fall into darkness just now? Is it encountering something unclean? I was in a state of panic, looking at the road ahead, and a bad feeling appeared, lingering.
At this time, he found out that the five people disappeared inexplicably, which made him feel uneasy, all five of them were old people who had followed him for many years, knew when to do something, and the thing that left their posts without permission had never happened. There were ten people in total, why did five of them disappear? Is it some reason for the five themselves? Or is there something mysterious in it?
More and more doubts hit, Li Gong was a little dizzy, and tried to calm himself down, and it took a while to recover. It's not that I haven't encountered weird things, the wind and waves have been going for many years, plus the weird things handed down from the ancestors, there is a way to crack everything, thinking of this, I quickly calmed down, let people take out the rope, tied around the waist, everyone in series, has reached this point, if you go back, too unwilling.
It was Vic who led the way at the front, and walked forward for more than a hundred meters, very smoothly, without encountering any danger. Under the stone walls on both sides, it seems that all kinds of utensils are still placed at random, but Li Gong knows that they are by no means placed at random, because the utensils are always separated by a distance. Someone deliberately placed it, and for what? What is the connection with the mysterious disappearance?
On the way here, several places have been discovered, and the traces of people walking are not obvious, are they left by the five people who disappeared? Before any useful clues could be found, the passage began to widen, and a huge cave was supported by a stone pillar in the middle, which was about a meter in diameter, and the middle was large and the ends were small, which seemed extremely unreasonable. The stone pillars are clearly carved with traces of artificial chiseling, and many stripes about two centimeters wide are carved, extending from top to bottom all the way to the end.
The decorations in the ancient tombs, especially the unique ornaments, have a special meaning, what do the stripes on the stone pillars in front of you represent? Is it a sacred relic that guards the ancient tomb? Or a simple ornament? Li Gong and the others did not rush forward, and first observed the surroundings, this is likely to be the front room of the tomb, or it is already the main tomb, so they need to be more cautious.
"Babu, Tian Wei."
Suddenly, there was a shout from the front, it was Vic's voice, and I don't know when, Vic untied the rope on his body and walked to the front alone. The rope tied to Vic's body was tied in a dead knot, and he didn't have a knife, how did he untie the rope? There was no dwelling on this question for the time being, because Vic's cry sounded again: "Babu, Tian Wei, you are still alive!" ”
Li Gong and the others all knew Babu and Tian Wei, according to what Vic said, it has been almost a month, and they should have died early, are they still alive? This is also incredible, Li Gong and the five people did not care about the potential danger, quickly ran forward, after the stone pillar, they saw a grotto in front of them, dazzling light, colorful glow, particularly dazzling, particularly exciting.
It was actually a mountain of gold, silver and all kinds of jewelry, like worthless things, piled up in the corner, because there were so many that there would be an idea, what is so strange about gold and silver jewelry. Everyone involuntarily walked forward, the temptation in front of them, no one could resist, except for Vic of course, Vic was still standing in place, his expression was changing, as if he was struggling in pain, for what? No one knew that the sight of Li Gong and the five of them was on Nabao Mountain.
"Plop", is the sound of falling water, Li Gong heard the sound, immediately stopped, ten centimeters in front of him, there is a Yin River, five or six meters wide, one step further, it will also fall. Although most of his eyes stayed on Baoshan just now, Li Gong was sure that after looking ahead, he didn't find the existence of Yinhe, could it have appeared suddenly? Or is it obscured by something?
"Plop", another person fell into the water, and the other two stopped, looked at the river in a daze, and retreated in fear. The water was calm, and no monsters were seen, and the more it was, the more they feared it. Because they are very familiar with the two people who fell into the water, their water quality is very good, even if they fall into the water, they should be able to swim up, but after falling into the water, it is only a few seconds, and even the shadows can not be seen, and even the water ripples on the river surface quickly return to calm.
There is only one possibility that the river can quickly return to calm, that is, the two people who fell into the water did not struggle at all, what is the situation that makes them lose even the instinct to survive? Could it be that in that instant, he was already dead? But there is no sound of pain at all, what can kill people invisibly, unable to give birth to a trace of resistance? Li Gong involuntarily clenched the jade Buddha pendant, not daring to let go, and a feeling of uneasiness appeared in his heart, which became more and more intense.
Li Gong and the two survivors retreated to Vic's side, and Vic, whose expression was uncertain, returned to normal at some point, just stupidly looking ahead, the location of Baoshan. Unlike Li Gong and the others, his gaze fell on the two backs in front of Baoshan. At this time, Li Gong noticed that there were two people in front of Baoshan, who were looking for something in Baoshan, thinking of Vic's shout, and knew that these two people were Babu and Tian Wei, but the two of them were really not dead?
Babu and Tian Wei stayed in the desert for almost a month, what did they survive? Not to mention the question of survival, why haven't the two left yet, what are they looking for, it's been a month, and they haven't found it yet? The doubts in Li Gong's heart were quickly answered, because the two people he saw were always leaning on their bodies, looking for something, walking back and forth for half an hour, and they were still the same action, like a clockwork machine.
Time passed minute by minute, an hour, the two of them still maintained their rickety bodies, walking back and forth, Vic shouted a few more times, still no response. The picture is too weird, are the two people in front of you still human? Will it become the walking dead and be manipulated by what? Vic finally couldn't help it, it was his brother, no matter what, he had to come forward and see that even if the two of them became monsters, he would take them away. Li Gong and the three did not stop Vic, and someone took the initiative to step forward to find out the situation, which was really unbelievable.
Vic was not stupid enough to swim through the Yin River, and when he saw the two people fall into the water, they disappeared without even a trace, so he knew that the Yin River was very dangerous. On the left and right sides of the cave, the stone wall is connected to pass, the stone wall is uneven, you can climb the rock to the past, and the Yin River is only five or six meters wide, the difficulty is even less. Sure enough, as expected, he easily crossed the Yin River and came to the cave, and he couldn't move before he landed, and everything in front of him was unbelievable.
