Soon the kayak had been inflated, and Huzi and Wang Chuyi worked together to put the kayak into the lake, and then beckoned me and Qiye to get on the boat first.

The green surface of the lake, the rising fog, standing on the shore and looking at it, I didn't find anything special, but if I really took a boat into the lake, I felt that the fog was very big, and the visibility instantly decreased a lot.

Since this kayak can only seat two people at a time, we tied a very long climbing rope at the end of the kayak, and let Wang Chuyi, who stayed on the shore, pull it, and then let Wang Chuyi pull the kayak back after I and the seventh master arrived on the other side of the lake.

When I reached the center of the lake, I raised my flashlight and shone it upwards, and found that the corpses hanging upside down above our heads were all face down, as if hanging upside down on the top, looking at us.

The further the boat went, the more corpses were hung upside down, some men and women, some corroded and exposed bones, and some relatively intact dried corpses, but these corpses all had several things in common, the first was that they were all trapped by people with ropes and hung upside down on the top of the lake, and second, all of them were face down, their hands drooped naturally, and their eyes were staring at the lake, as if there was some treasure under the lake, and looking at the expressions of these dried corpses, they seemed to be very frightened, as if they were afraid of something.

The boat was rowing forward little by little, and I was wondering who these corpses were, the remnants of the Guge? Or is it an alien invader? Looking at the degree of corrosion of these corpses, they should not have been hanged at the same time, but because of the long time, it is difficult to tell how big the time difference between them is now.

As the oars continued to row, soon the boat was almost on the other side, and when I looked up, I saw in the distance a dozen steps descending into the water, which seemed to be used for the boat to dock.

The seventh master sat in front of the kayak, controlled the direction, slowly leaned the boat against the steps, walked down the kayak first, and then stood on the steps, grabbed my arm, and dragged me out of the kayak.

At this time, my right leg was in a severe pain, and I couldn't use it at all, and just when I reached the steps, my right leg went weak and almost fell.

The seventh master hurriedly held me up, then shook the climbing rope at the end of the kayak, and then flashed a flashlight a few times on the other side of the river, reminding Wang Chuyi that they would take the kayak back.

After receiving the signal, Wang Chuyi soon began to pull the climbing rope, and the kayak gradually left the riverbank.

At this time, the seventh master and I both turned around, raised the flashlight to carefully check the surrounding environment, only to see a winding upward staircase, extending far upward, on both sides like a stone forest scattered stone statues of different sizes, some of these stone statues are dressed in armor, some are dressed in robes, different postures, some stand opposite, some raise their heads to look at the moon, the number is so large that it is difficult to count.

Just when Qi Ye and I were using a flashlight to observe the surrounding environment, suddenly I heard a sound of "ding...", as if the sound of some metal object impacting, but the sound was very small, as if mosquitoes were flying in my ears, fleeting.

At this time, the seventh master's body suddenly trembled, and he hurriedly bent down to check.

"Seventh Master, what's wrong? Didn't you run into ......?"

Before I finished speaking, the seventh master hurriedly raised his hand and shook it, signaling me not to speak, and then saw him slowly take out a standard saber from the saber sheath on his calf.

After taking out the saber, he put the saber horizontally in front of him, so that the blade of the saber was on the same parallel line as his eyes, and then asked me to use a flashlight to shine on the blade of the saber.

I was a little puzzled, I don't know what the seventh master found this time, I can only do what the seventh master said, when the light of my flashlight shines on the saber knife body, the seventh master's eyes suddenly shrank, I thought the light was dazzling, and I wanted to adjust the light of the flashlight, but was stopped by the seventh master.

I saw that the seventh master looked at the saber intently, and then said in a low voice, "I thought this kind of mechanism was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to be true!" ”

Seeing the appearance of the seventh master, I also looked at the saber carefully, but after looking at it for a long time, I didn't find anything suspicious, this saber didn't change at all, why did the seventh master look so solemn?

"Seventh Master, what's going on? What happened to this saber? ”

The Seventh Master looked at the saber carefully, and replied, "I thought you were a ground stabbing nail, but it's not right, what you hit is a cow hair needle!" ”

Hearing the cow hair needle, I couldn't help but tremble in my heart, secretly screaming that it is not good, the difference between this cow hair needle and the ground thorn nail is that the cow hair needle is more than ten times thinner than the ground thorn nail, it is a kind of thing that only exists in legends, I didn't expect to meet it here!

I hurriedly unbuckled my belt, checked the wound on my crotch again, only to see that the scarlet dot in my crotch still existed, looked carefully, and found that this dot is the size of a needle.

After I told the seventh master this, I saw him shake his head slightly, and said, "It must be a cow hair needle, it can't be wrong, but the cow hair needle that was shot into your crotch has changed due to the rust of time, so it will leave such a big red spot wound." ”

Saying that, the seventh master pointed to the blade of the saber, and said, "Look at this cow hair needle, it has not been affected in any way, when it is shot out, there is no slightest sound, and there will be no air current, which makes it difficult to guard, if it is not for me to tie the saber to my calf, I am afraid that this cow hair needle has been shot into my bones at this time." ”

I looked carefully at the position of the seventh master's finger, and then the light of the strong flashlight, sure enough, I found a metal needle as thin as a cow's hair, and blew on it with my mouth, this cow's hair needle will also shake from side to side, and it doesn't seem to be very heavy, but the power is really scary, the half-centimeter-wide saber blade has been shot through by this cow hair needle at this time, and the bottom is exposed to a needle tip, with this power alone, it is no worse than a ground stabbing nail.

Just when Qi Ye and I were still studying cow hair needles, Wang Chuyi and Huzi also came here in kayaks, and when the two of them heard about cow hair needles, their reactions were similar to mine.

Especially Huzi, with his brows tightly locked, his legs crossed, he simply sat on the ground, and said, "Damn, in the booklet left by Wang Ying's old man, it was mentioned that if you touch a cow hair needle, it can't be broken, and you will return immediately." As he spoke, Huzi took out a cigarette from his backpack, lit it and took two puffs, and then said, "This cow hair needle is different from ordinary organs, the launch port is very secret, and it is very small, it is very unrealistic to find the accurate launch position, and because the cow hair needle is very light, there is no sound when it is shot, and it will not produce air currents, so it is impossible to prevent at all, and from the perspective of Lao Bai's injury, the power of this cow hair needle is definitely not weak, and it is no worse than a bullet when shot on the body." ”

After speaking, Huzi looked at the Seventh Master and me, then sighed, and then said, "In my opinion, let's go back, this cow hair needle is not an ordinary mechanism, it's terrible!" ”

Seeing that Huzi was so decadent, Wang Chuyi snorted coldly and said, "Let's come all the way upside down, which time did we go down to the tomb and encounter the mechanism that was not fatal?" Why are you afraid of this cow hair needle? You're still not a tiger? Where did all the previous bull energy go? An old man Wang Ying's booklet scared you into a bad seed? ”

Wang Chu scolded him repeatedly, Huzi opened his mouth several times to refute, but in the end he didn't say a word, and finally simply squatted on the ground, looked at me and said, "Lao Bai, this cow hair needle is really not ordinary, the seventh master and Wang Chuyi want to go over, I won't stop you, you must not go!" ”

"What are you talking about, you want to go together, let's go, let's go together, how can we be separated?" I tried to walk over, trying to help Huzi up, but as soon as I opened my legs, I felt a sharp pain, and I stumbled, and fell forward, Huzi saw this and quickly stood up and helped me.

"Let's rest here first, and then we can figure out a way." After the seventh master finished speaking, he began to take out the simple tent from the backpack, and the four of us leaned against the lake water, set up the tent on the bank of the river, and prepared to rest.

Because Huzi made such a fuss, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward, he still insisted on returning the same way and not taking risks easily, while Wang Chuyi and Qiye insisted on entering the main hall, otherwise this trip would be in vain.

The two sides were deadlocked, each holding its own opinion, and I was caught in the middle, and I could only reconcile in many ways.

Huzi used the activated charcoal and firewood he brought to build a bonfire, and at my mention, everyone sat around the bonfire to discuss the next step.

The seventh master looked at the steps up, and said, "There are at least dozens of steps on this step, along the way, I'm afraid the mechanism is indispensable, Huzi is right, the cow hair needle is indeed not easy to deal with, before there is a way to break the mechanism, we can't go up easily." ”

Among us, the seventh master has the most experience, and the oldest, the three of us have great respect for the seventh master, as soon as the seventh master said this, Wang Chuyi and Huzi both agreed, and Huzi, who has always insisted on returning the same way, also said that as long as he can find a way to break the mechanism of the cow hair needle, he is also willing to follow us up.

Time passed little by little, I began to feel a little sleepy, and Wang Chuyi had already leaned on my shoulder and fell asleep, leaving only the Seventh Master and Huzi still talking in a low voice, due to a leg injury, I could hardly help now, I could only bake the bonfire, and watch the mist rising from the lake from afar.

Recalling the experience of this scene of inverted fighting, I had mixed feelings in my heart for a while, and I thought that I had encountered a lot of traps in various organs, why was I stumped this time? I thought as I kneading my crotch with my hand, hoping to heal my leg injury as soon as possible.

At this moment, a handful of water streaks suddenly appeared on the surface of the misty lake, rippling in circles.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly said, "Seventh Master, there is something in the lake!" ”
