Chapter 15: Horror in the Water
This stone trough looks only as deep as my forearm, how can I not touch it.
The second senior brother obviously found out, rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand.
A strange expression furrowed his face, and then his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at me with a smile.
It's not good, the expression of the second senior brother, I have a premonition.
Sure enough, the second senior brother looked at me with a strange smile and said, "Xiaoshuai, you should be the discoverer of the first Great Khan's mausoleum."
Wearing a top hat often means being betrayed.
Now, I can't suppress my curiosity, and finding the Great Khan's Mausoleum should be equivalent to my task.
I stepped into the stone trough with only a pair of underwear left, and my whole body was put into the water, only my head was exposed on the water and I didn't step on the bottom, if my upper body was in the stone trough, then where did my lower body go?
I grabbed the edge of the trough with my right hand and touched my thigh with my left hand, and I felt a lot more relieved.
"Did you step on it?" , the second senior brother asked
"Nope"
"Drop down and see"
I was a little scared, and I didn't know what I was afraid of, looking at the second senior brother, I couldn't bear it without speaking, and I held my breath and slowly sank down the edge of the stone trough.
The water was too buoyant and sank a little slowly, but fortunately it didn't take long to reach the end, and I closed my eyes and looked around, hoping to touch a passage.
I really didn't fit to be a pathfinder, I explored more and more slowly in the dark water, and every time I reached out, I was afraid that I would touch some skeleton, corpse, or something, and I was thinking about something, and my left hand was suddenly entangled in a mass of filament.
Hair!
My God, I choked on saliva under the sudden fright, and began to flutter in the water in a panic, why didn't the second senior brother come to save me? Am I going to die here?
After a few struggles, I realized that the hair wrapped around my hand was not too heavy, maybe it was a child, or a skeleton with the hair tangled, and I held my last breath and desperately swam to the surface with this mass of hair.
I just wanted to give up once in my mind and I was vetoed, I had to fight until the last second, I was a man.
After the last breath in my chest was gone, my head finally came out of the water.
I lay on the edge of the stone trough and coughed up the remaining choking water in my lungs, only to realize how dark it was, and I gasped for air.
What about flashlights? What about the second senior brother?
There was a buzzing sound all around, and I recognized it, it was a fly, a bunch, no, a swarm of flies.
I gasped and switched to breathing through my nose, and I almost fainted after just one breath.
It smelled like a fermented manure pit mixed with the stench of a rotting garbage heap.
I immediately inhaled through my mouth, and even then it was still unbearable, and then I remembered the hair wrapped around my hand, and I slowly touched it with my right hand, and after being taken out of the water, I clearly felt the material, it was not hair, it was supposed to be nylon silk or something.
, it almost scared me to death, I threw the nylon filament out of the stone trough and screamed softly.
"Senior Brother,,,,Senior Brother,,,
Where is the second senior brother, why are there so many flies here, and they still stink so fuckingly.
Could it be that,,I suddenly have this feeling in my head, this is the smell of corpses? Only a rotting corpse can stink so much, and there will be so many flies, could it be that the second senior brother died here?
A picture came to my mind, the second senior brother was bumped into by Uncle Liu's father and third uncle, and he was killed here without defense, so I only dived down for a while just now, and I wasn't so fast.
What's more, it takes at least three days for the corpse to decompose on a hot day, so why just sink into the water for a while, and three days have passed?
I told myself in my heart that it wasn't impossible.
Many of the world's World War II warships, planes disappeared but suddenly appeared decades later, and the battleships and planes remained in the same state as they were at that time, and even the pilots themselves did not know how to pass the decades at once.
Master Mao once said that one day in the sky, one year on earth, one day on earth, and ten years underground.
I just went down for a while, has it been several days since I went down in the world?
I don't give up, this may be a dream, I opened my mouth and shouted, "Senior brother~~"
As soon as I shouted, a fly flew in my mouth, which was so disgusting that I hurriedly spit out, and wrapped a mouthful of water from the pool and kept rinsing my mouth.
I still feel uncomfortable, but just like that, this shouting just now gave me a strange feeling.
I covered my mouth with my hand and tried my best, "Two---division--brother."
This time, I heard it very clearly, and there were a few voices in the distance, "Two---Brother--Brother."
There is an echo.
It proves that this is no longer the hut, and that it is a huge confined space, or a place surrounded by mountains to have these echoes.
But I touched the stone trough around me, and I was sure that it was the one I had put into the water, and it was only half a table.
What's going on, maybe it's been tens of millions of years since I sank into the water and returned to the surface, and even the mountains under the earth have arched out of the ground.
Mountains underground? By the way, did I just go to the Great Khan's Mausoleum?
Well, most of the time, I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I was thinking about it just now.
The laughing flies are flying into their mouths again, and, there are more flies here than in a dung pit.
From time to time, flies hit my face, and with a disgusting stench, I couldn't stay here for a second.
Since I came from the stone trough, I must have returned from here, and I began to dive again.
With experience, I swam much faster this time, and quickly sank to the bottom along the trough wall, and the nylon thread here just now scared me enough, this time I paddled carefully in the water, but I didn't want to be entangled again.
As soon as he thought of this, his paddling hand grabbed something, it was a foot, a human foot.
Damn, what luck am I, I quickly threw away that foot and was about to float to the water, and my shoulder was grabbed by two hands.
A tremendous force dragged me over, and in an instant I was carried out of the water.
A familiar scene, a familiar person, a familiar flashlight.
It was the second senior brother who caught me, and I looked at the second senior brother while resting.
He stepped into the water with one foot, and was taking it back, saying,
"It's not dead yet, it's been so long"
I gasped twice, "I was almost scared to death by you if I didn't die, I suddenly touched a foot in the water, and I was caught and dragged backwards"
"I see that you haven't come up after going down for so long, you almost scared my old man to death"
I looked at the second senior brother and said, "I should have found the entrance."
