Chapter 78: The Cave [For That Touch of Death & Memories Added]
"In that case, then come with me!" Hearing this, Xiao Chen didn't say anything more, and then walked in the front and led the way for everyone.
The deeper you walk into the mountains, the more dense the vegetation becomes, and the sun in the sky only casts light through the layers of branches and leaves, projecting onto the ground.
When they came to the northwest canyon, they looked down and found that the canyon was very narrow, as if someone had split a mountain with a knife.
Above the canyon, a hazy mist obscures the scenery below, and on both sides of the canyon, there are steep cliffs and strange rocks.
"This is completely a first-line gorge!" Lu Tianyi sighed.
On the treetops just now, one was far away, and the other was covered by trees, although he could see that it was a canyon, but he didn't know what it looked like.
When I really came here, I couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature when I looked at this steep and narrow canyon.
"Xiao Chen, have you ever been to this canyon?" Lu Tianyi asked.
"Nope." Xiao Chen shook his head, "I've only seen this canyon down from here before, but I've never gone down. The main reason is that the cliff is too dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will fall down. ”
"That's it!" Lu Tianyi nodded and said, "Let's go, I'll take you down today to have a look!" ”
Lu Tianyi chose a relatively gentle route and led everyone down the mountain cautiously.
As soon as they arrived at the bottom of the canyon, everyone felt that the temperature around them was significantly lower, as if they had suddenly entered the cold storage in the hot summer, and their exposed skin had goosebumps.
Looking up, the canyon was dark because of the thick fog above blocking the sunlight, like the sky before a rainstorm.
Looking around, they found that the bottom of the cliff was also uneven, and the craggy boulders were lying on the ground in a mess.
On the left side of the cliff, mountain springs seep out and fall to the ground, merging into a trickling stream.
On both sides of the cliff, thick shade-loving plants also grow, and one-person-tall ferns abound.
At the same time, the bones of some wild beasts can be seen sporadically in the sand, gravel and soil. Lu Tianyi guessed that these should be animals that accidentally fell from the mountain.
"Mr. Lu, how do I feel that this place is a bit evil?" Ah Hai looked at the gloomy and dim environment around him and whispered.
"It's true that there are some evil sects." Lu Tianyi looked around and reminded: "Be careful, pay attention to your feet, don't fall." ”
The crowd cautiously searched the bottom of the canyon.
About seven or eight minutes later, there was a sudden rustling sound among the dense plants on the side, and the leaves of the plants shook rapidly.
Sensing the abnormality, everyone's spirits suddenly tensed. Lu Tianyi suddenly shot out and kicked a stone on the sole of his foot, and the stone shot into the vegetation in an instant like a cannonball.
Suddenly, the plant shook even more rapidly, as if something was struggling inside.
After waiting for almost two or three minutes, everything in the grass stopped. The rustling sound was no longer heard, and the leaves of the plants no longer trembled.
At this time, Ah Zhi was about to go over and see what was in there just now. But as soon as he walked away and raised his right foot, Lu Tianyi reached out to stop him.
"Wait, don't worry!" Lu Tianyi said a word, and kicked a few stones again uneasily.
After the stone was shot into it, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no movement.
"Let's take a look, what was it just now?" Lu Tianyi commanded, and at the same time bent down to pick up a stone in case of accidents.
Ah Zhi nodded, walked to the front of the grass, and carefully used the peach branch in his hand to remove the grass quilt.
I saw a venomous snake with a dark body lying inside, and a large hole was broken in the middle of the child's arm-thick body, and blood kept flowing out.
"Mr. Lu, it's a poisonous snake." Ah Zhi picked out the poisonous snake with a peach branch and shouted loudly.
Seeing the dead viper, everyone relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Throw the snake away, let's move on." Lu Tianyi said.
After traveling for more than ten minutes again, Ah Meng suddenly pointed to the cliff on the side and shouted, "Mr. Lu, look, there is a cave up there." ”
Everyone looked up and saw that there was a cave at a height of more than five meters above the ground on the cliff wall, and the entrance of the cave was about two meters high and one meter wide.
"Let's go, go in and have a look!"
Coming to the bottom of the cave, Lu Tianyi took the lead, jumped on the protruding rock twice, and jumped up.
Vigilantly observing the situation inside the cave entrance, and finding that there was no danger, Lu Tianyi turned to the people below and beckoned: "Come up!" ”
After everyone came up, Lu Tianyi ordered: "I'll walk in front, and you and I will be one meter away." ”
"Mr. Lu, we know."
After arranging everything, Lu Tianyi took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, and Ah Meng, who was walking at the back of the team, also took out his mobile phone for lighting.
The cave is narrow enough for one person to pass through. And it is a little deep, there is no sunlight outside, and when you get to the cave, you can't see your fingers.
The passage of the cave is not straight, and the inside is winding and twisting, from left to right.
They walked for more than half an hour, and although they walked very slowly, they also went about five or six hundred meters deeper.
At this time, the temperature in the cave was already very low, probably less than twenty degrees. Lu Tianyi is okay, he has true qi to protect his body, as for the others, at this time, the muscles of his body involuntarily began to twitch, and his upper and lower jaws also kept colliding gently, making a "knock" sound.
"This cave is too deep!" Xiao Chen said with emotion.
"Can you tell where we are now?" Lu Tianyi asked.
"No, I can't see my fingers in this cave, and there are so many corners, I don't remember the direction for a long time." Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Indeed!" Ah Zhi nodded in agreement, "If there wasn't only one road in this cave, I guess we would have gotten lost in it." ”
"Let's keep walking!"
After walking for another five or six minutes, suddenly, the space in front of them suddenly became clear.
What came into view was a huge stone cave, roughly estimated, about 100 square meters.
"This ......"
"There is such a big cave here!"
"Mr. Lu, look there!" At this time, Ah Hai pointed in one direction and shouted.
Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw that in the middle of the cave, there was an altar made of rock, and on top of the altar, there was a scarlet coffin.
"Everyone, be careful!" Seeing the coffin, Lu Tianyi advised, "If the coffin is a zombie, when it attacks, you can use the peach branches and glutinous rice in your hand to repel it." ”
"We know, Mr. Lu, you have to be careful!"
Later, Lu Tianyi said: "Lili, protect them!" ”
"Don't worry!" Lili said.
However, no one noticed that in the passage behind them, a pair of sapphire eyes were staring at them.
