Chapter 64: Footsteps

Seeing that I was reasonable, Ge Zhuang didn't continue to make trouble, everyone picked up the equipment again, and continued to have, walking towards the hole that was inclined downward, and walked for a long time, Ge Zhuang kept turning on the flashlight, constantly sweeping around the stone wall, looking for possible hidden passages.

But no, we walked for several minutes in a row, and the stone wall was unusually smooth, and there was nothing but stagnant water clinging to the surface.

When I went down again, I was at the front, and the more I walked, the more anxious I became, and finally I was about to trot, when I heard the old bell shouting to me behind me, "Little pumpkin, stop, we can't go any further!" ”

I was upset, turned back to the old bell and said, "What's wrong?" The old bell pointed to his feet and said, "Look at what this is?" I looked at the place where his finger was pointing, but I found a white candle at the foot of the old clock, the windproof lighter I had just dropped on the ground!

"How did they end up here!" My brain exploded at once, and I quickly crouched down, picked up the candle and lighter, and looked at them carefully to make sure that they were indeed the things I had just thrown away, and my face quickly turned a miserable blue.

I looked up at the old clock, but saw that he was also looking at me with a solemn face, and their eyes met, revealing a deep haze.

Ge Zhuang said, "Little pumpkin, I remember that you didn't just throw the candle and lighter under the stone wall?" Why are the candles and lighters there, but the stone wall is gone? ”

I stood up in silence, gritted my teeth and said, "Don't ask, keep walking!" ”

Things are getting weirder and weirder, until now my mind is already a mess of paste, ten minutes ago, there was obviously a stone wall here, but now the stone wall is gone, the lighter and candle are still there, is it my lighter and candle learned to walk, or is the stone wall moving?

No one can answer this question, I walked on the wet wall path, every step seemed extremely cautious, Kenjiro Fujino disappeared under our noses, I was worried that if I was not careful, I would encounter the same situation, so the three of them subconsciously got close to each other, even if there was a sudden accident, it was convenient to take care of each other.

Now I can't care about turning on the flashlight, will it attract the attention of those people in front, the dark passage of the underground palace is weird everywhere, and it is impossible to prevent it, several of us have figured out the flashlight, turned the light to the brightest, and then scanned the stone wall respectively.

Not long after leaving, I didn't continue to walk anymore when I found that the situation was wrong, Ge Zhuang was sandwiched between me and Lao Zhong, and the mood was also the most irritable, seeing that I was not leaving, he asked again, "What's the situation, little pumpkin, your special mother is talking!" ”

I said that this passage will lead to somewhere, and how do I feel as if there is no end to it? And there are people walking in front of them, why didn't they even leave a footprint?

In order to prevent slipping while walking, people who go up the mountain in the deep winter will choose leather boots with spike shoes, which have a very sharp pegboard underneath the shoes, which can leave traces on the rock layer, and the grip effect is obvious, which can prevent slipping.

If someone had walked in front of me, there would have been no footprints underground, but I've been looking for so long, but I haven't seen half a footprint.

Ge Zhuang came up without a clue, saying that they might have taken off their shoes and were walking.

I almost made him laugh and said, "Can you stop making me laugh?" ! Then I asked Lao Zhong what you think.

The old bell shook his head and said that the only possibility is that the passage we are walking through now is not the same road as the people in front of us. "How is this possible!" Ge Zhuang immediately expressed reaction, saying that since Guhua Mountain, the fat man paid careful attention to it when he came down, and there was only one road left under our feet to go to the dark, and there was no fork in the road, can they still know how to escape the ground?

I also noticed this, maybe Ge Zhuang guessed correctly, maybe the gang in front of me really took off their shoes and left!

The three of them were stunned in the distance, not knowing what to do, and they didn't think about whether to continue walking, and after two minutes of silence, Lao Zhong suddenly lay on the ground, sticking to the ground with his ears, Ge Zhuang couldn't help but say, "Old Zhong, what are you doing, you want to go on the earth?" ”

"Shut up!" Old Zhong hated his teeth, glared at him fiercely, and listened attentively to the ground for a few seconds, then looked up and looked at me with a strange expression, "Little pumpkin, there is a footstep, did you hear it?" ”

Ge Zhuang and I looked at each other, and we couldn't help but lie down and listen to the old clock's method, and sure enough, I soon noticed that the earth was shaking, and there were faint footsteps far and near, slowly walking towards us.

"Who could it be?" Ge Zhuang looked at me with a big greasy face and asked, "Could it be those foreigners?" "I said probably not, there was only one footstep, maybe Kenjiro Fujino's.

Ge Zhuang jumped up, grabbed the rifle in his hand and said, "Okay, catch this kid and ask, what's going on here!" ”

"Fatty, don't be impulsive, I only said it was possible, what if the footsteps weren't his?" I saw Ge Zhuang grabbing a rifle and was about to rush to the rear, so I hurriedly dragged him from behind, saying You listen carefully, the frequency of this footstep is not like a person walking at all, one is long and one is short, and the footsteps of ordinary people walking should be symmetrical.

At this time, the footsteps have become more and more obvious, even if we don't need to lie on the ground, we can hear it very clearly, Ge Zhuang listened carefully, and suddenly changed his face and said that it was really like this!

The footsteps were long, not like the sound of the soles of the feet of a living person stamping on the ground when they walked, but like someone holding the soles of their feet on the ground, dragging forward, and the sound became louder and louder.

"Zongzi, for sure, little pumpkin, you quickly prepare antelope horns!" Ge Zhuang heard this voice getting closer and closer, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, we also felt that this voice was wrong, we all changed their faces one after another, glanced at each other, turned around and ran towards the depths of the passage.

If you encounter zongzi in such a narrow place, you won't be able to eat and walk around, the width of the hole is less than half a meter, and it will be difficult to even turn around like Ge Zhuang, let alone copy the guy and do it with zongzi!

We ran along the tunnel for about two or three minutes, but the footsteps followed us all the time, and when we accelerated, the footsteps also accelerated, and when we stopped, we noticed that the frequency of the footsteps had become lower, only the "rustle" sound of the soles of our shoes rubbing against the ground had not changed from beginning to end.

"Damn, the fat man can't stand it, it doesn't matter if you are a zongzi or not, Lao Tzu will give you a shuttle to talk first!" Ge Zhuang ran with me for a long time, he was so tired that he couldn't breathe, put the rifle in his hand, and scolded angrily, "Who the hell is it, don't play tricks with the fat man, you are a special mother to Lao Tzu!" ”

He shouted, and the frequency of the footsteps instantly accelerated, and the sound of "stampeding" came from the dark and long passageway, and the frequency became faster and faster, as if someone in the dark was speeding up towards us.
