Chapter 119: The Second Dark Shadow
All I could see was a figure of the man, who flashed past and burrowed into the alley next door.
At that time, the first thing I thought about was Li Guohua (the elder brother of the antique Li), and the back of my head was immediately numb, and I said: Could it be that those corpse puppets have been resurrected again? Thinking about it, after that incident passed, the public security bureau cremated the bodies closely, and those bodies have now become ashes.
This should be a person, but wandering on the street in the middle of the night, would he be a good person? I was worried that this person would be detrimental to the neighbors of Lao Miao Village, so I hurriedly followed.
The man wasn't fast, and with a little effort, I caught up.
Looking at the back, this figure seems to be quite familiar to me, it is not the kind of corpse puppet at first glance, and I should know this person, his steps are not very light, he looks in a hurry, and he feels a little anxious.
Since I was sure that it was a person, I was not afraid, so I had another idea in my heart: that is, follow him quietly and see what he wants to do!
After crossing the alley, the man turned left. I immediately understood that he was heading for the ancient well.
At the same time, I also recognized who this person was, it turned out to be Professor Gu!
Could it be that Professor Gu is so curious? It's early in the morning, and I'm still thinking about the underground passage under the ancient well, which is all a fight with the antique Li, and it seems that the old man who is engaged in archaeology is very weird.
But when you think about it, it's not right! Shouldn't everyone in the village be "bewitched" except me? How is he the same as no one?
Just as he was thinking, Professor Gu had already arrived at the ancient well, when suddenly a bright light flashed in front of him, and he turned on the flashlight.
I quickly hid behind the wall and poked my head out to look at Professor Gu secretly.
Professor Gu first looked into the well, and then climbed down the rope, his movements were very skillful, not like a cultured person who was powerless.
I quietly leaned in, waited by the well for a while, and estimated that Professor Gu should have already drilled into the cave, and then quietly showed up to take a look, and sure enough, I could only see the light of a faint flashlight coming from the cave, and the person had already entered the cave.
I quickly climbed down gently and followed him into the cave.
From a distance, I saw Professor Gu shining a flashlight on the green bricks on the wall, as if he had found something, and after looking around, he carefully buckled out a few bricks, and then let out a burst of exclamations from his mouth, as if there was something hidden behind the green bricks he was looking for.
I was wondering, when I saw the light turn and Professor Gu continued to walk forward.
Because of my extraordinary eyesight, I can see everything around me very clearly, and I am naturally cautious not to let Professor Gu find me.
The cave was so quiet that the slightest sound could be heard far away, so I had to keep a longer distance from Professor Gu.
It wasn't until Professor Gu got out of the blue brick at the end of the tunnel that I slowly leaned over.
I looked out at the hole at the end of the tunnel, and I could see that there was much less debris in the pit than before, and the trees were gone.
There is a huge stone platform in the center of the pit, and the black coffins around it are also clearly visible.
I looked around, but I didn't see the shadow of Professor Gu.
What about people? Could it be that he was hiding behind a coffin? I chuckled inwardly.
I sat down at the entrance of the cave for a while, and thought, "I can't keep it going!" Find out when you find out! So as soon as he gritted his teeth, he slowly walked along the side with his waist bent.
As I walked, I looked around. I'm now confident in my eyesight, and I'm looking at everything at the bottom of the pit, even a dead mouse.
But after walking half a circle, I still didn't see Professor Gu, and then I felt that something was wrong, a big living person can't evaporate for no reason, right?
The cat bent on the waist, after a long time, I was a little tired, so I stretched my waist at will, and when I looked up, my scalp was numb again, and I saw a person standing on the top of the big pit, staring motionless below. I couldn't make out the man's appearance because of the angle and reflection, but it looked like a man.
My first reaction: This person is Professor Gu. But after a little pondering, you will know that it is not right, the depth of this pit is at least seventy or eighty meters, and the walls are all weathered green bricks. Not to mention an intellectual in his fifties, even a national champion in rock climbing cannot climb to it in just a few minutes.
If it's not Professor Gu, who would this person be? It's already early in the morning, and the people who can come to this big pit should be from Laomiao Village...... I stared at the man's face motionlessly, hoping that the moment he turned around, I would recognize it, and at the same time I was unconsciously analyzing.
Thinking about it, I feel that such a person should not appear at this time and place.
In the past few minutes, this person's body only moved slightly, until half of his body was exposed, and then he suddenly disappeared, and I couldn't see this person's appearance clearly until he left.
What's going on? Who would be so interested in this kind of place except Professor Koo? I hesitated for a moment, and looked for Professor Gu again, this time I looked more carefully, and I also looked behind the more than a dozen coffins that were cleaned up, but there was still no trace of Professor Gu.
What about people? What about people? You can't get into the slag, do you?
While searching, I was also pondering the possibility of not finding him, and no matter how I thought about it, I felt that there was no possibility. The bottom of this pit is equivalent to a sealed space, how can people disappear?
Before I knew it, the sky was already bright, and when I thought of the scene of all the neighbors roaring together, I was faintly worried, although in the afternoon, after the roar, nothing else happened, but this does not mean that there will be no accidents at night!
Actually, I was just scared by the previous experience!
I walked along the tunnel back to the outside of the well, the east was already about to erupt, I stood outside the well and occasionally heard a few dog barks and rooster crows, hearing these sounds, my heart hung in my heart and let go.
Back at Wang Jiliang's house, when I tiptoed past the living room, I heard his even snoring, as if I was sleeping soundly, and my heart was completely steady.
It seems that everyone should be fine, I'll get some sleep first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow! Thinking so, I closed the bedroom door, and the clothes on my body were already dirty, so I took them off and threw them away, lay down and fell asleep.
I was woken up in the hustle and bustle, and listening to Wang Jiliang, Zhang Kailong, and the two graduate students talking, several people seemed to be very excited.
I listened to the emotions in the voices of the two graduate students, as if they were complaining about something, and Zhang Kailong was more explaining.
After listening to a few more words, I understood, it turned out that after a few people woke up, they found that Professor Gu was gone. At first, I thought that Professor Gu would go out for a walk or go to Wang Jiliang's house after getting up early, but later I found that the person seemed to be missing, so there was a slightly disputed conversation between several people.
Could it be that Professor Gu has never returned? A vague uneasiness came to my heart.
