XIII. Yin Hai
I also saw spots around the snake scales, the same thing as the one on my dad in the video.
"This guy is also infected." I had only one thought in my mind at this time, but I didn't speak, I stayed away from him, and I didn't want to touch this mold.
I walked from the bow to the stern and sat down beside the woman.
I don't know the identity of this woman, but from this face, it seems that she should be about thirty years old, but when Rong Jitong was talking to her, he called her a little girl, which is not the title she should have at her age. So she should be disguised. So what is the way this woman came from? Why did she come to the ancient tomb of the Marquis of Haidu?
"Look at what? Is my sister so good-looking? She smiled at me, and I saw the skin on her cheeks and neck wrinkle.
I pressed my hand to the same position on my neck and whispered, "Brother Mengo is infected." ”
"What?" She was stunned for a moment, and then as soon as the words fell, Brother Men's side seemed to feel something, and he struggled in pain while holding his neck.
But compared to Rong Jitong's illness before, the three people on the ship were surprisingly calm at this time, and nothing seemed to have happened. We sat in the stern of the boat and watched Mengo fall to the ground, wheezing and wheezing, his eyes full of despair.
It's the snake, it's the snake that causes all this, it's the snake venom. That creature, it seems, not from the teeth last transmitted the toxin, but from the abdomen, the teeth will kill people, but the venom in the abdomen will cause snake scales to grow on people. Back then, Rong Jitong and his father were because they entered the Dingli and entered the snake's nest, and the toxin would cause the body to become a snake.
It wasn't the curse of the tomb, it was from this strange creature.
In the face of absolute pain, there will not be too many people like Rong Jitong who exert their strength externally, they can only adduct their strength to resist the heartburn pain. Brother Mengo fell to the ground, and I saw that the skin of his whole body began to turn sallow, and the whole person looked like a walking corpse.
"How can it be so fast?"
"It's blood!" The woman sighed: "I hurt him, the blood of the snake has a strong toxin, when the bullet pierced the snake, all the poisonous blood in its body spilled on Menyue Bin's skin, so the snake will become faster and faster." ”
"So what happens in the end?"
"Who knows? Maybe it will become a snake. Rong Jitong looked at Menyue Bin, who was gradually weakening and fell to the ground, and walked over to pour him a mouthful of water.
Menyue Bin woke up slowly, he sat on the ground, looked at us, touched his neck, and smiled miserably: "Is there really a way to detoxify in the ancient tomb of the Marquis of Haidu?" ”
He was also very courageous, and quickly calmed down.
"No one knows what's inside the ancient tomb, but I found the coffin of the Marquis of Haidu, which was placed next to the keel, and with that bone, maybe you and I can really shed this layer of skin."
"I hope so!" Kadoshi Bin sighed and asked the woman next to me to give him a little painkiller.
The boat had broken its way in the underground lake where the currents had converged, and the woman stopped the boat.
This is the center of a huge underground lake, and the underground rivers that flow in from all directions are here, and most of the rivers are numerous.
"How to get there?" She asked Rong Jitong.
Rong Jitong stood up, glanced at the entire lake, then clinged to the boat, took off his mask, took a deep breath, and actually dived his whole head into the water. I thought he was going to jump all in, but it turned out that he was just sticking his head down, and after a while he pulled his head back from under the water, and then a terrible scene happened, and I actually saw the scales on his face start to rise and fall as if he was alive, as if he was breathing.
"Go that way." Rong Jitong said and pointed in a direction.
"Are you discerning the water level by the direction of the current?" As the so-called water flows downward, the tributaries of these rivers follow the terrain to this place, and presumably eventually they will also merge into the Yin Sea, and the lake here is just a transit station on the water, so you can judge the trend of the water flow in the water. But I don't know why Rong Jitong can do all this with the snake scales on his face.
Rong Jitong hummed and began to wipe his hair, he seemed to be very tired, spread out on the boat, motionless.
Then there was nothing to say all the way, we found the river into the sea, and went down the river, everyone ate a little bit on the way, and it happened to be short to death, so there was a vacant one, Rong Jitong said let me eat more and wait for a while, the road may still be very long.
Then five hours passed, and during those five hours, our phones didn't get any signal from outside, and I could just feel the bumpy feeling of sailing in the dark river.
"Let's not talk about finding the ancient tomb first, just talk about going out, can we find a way out?" In the silence, I couldn't help but speak.
As if thinking that I would have this question, Rong Jitong immediately responded: "Walking along the river, the water is turbulent, and it must be the water that falls into the next layer." ”
"The next level? What's on the next floor? What if the next floor takes ten days and half a month? What do we eat? "After holding it for a long time, a series of questions in my heart poured out, and in this dark environment, it is the most testing of people's hearts.
"In the river channel in this cave, there are countless cave mackerel and cave catfish, these two kinds of fish are only found in the underground river, and as long as they are a little bit, the meat and bones melt together, delicious and nourishing." Rong Jitong pointed to his backpack and said, "We brought gas canisters and pots. ”
I was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Wait a minute!" Kadoshibin shouted to us.
"What's wrong?"
"Look ahead."
I looked ahead, and in front of me stood a forest-like stalagmite, the size of a man's arm. Straight into the clouds above, those clouds took on different colors under the light of the flashlight.
"Did you hear ······?" Kado said again.
"The sound of the waves?" The woman seemed to be familiar with the voice.
Sea? "I didn't care about that, but focused all my eyes on the stalagmites on both sides of the river, which was no longer a simple mountain.
"Mom!" I couldn't help but exclaim, because with the flow of water, in front of me, I was turned upside down, the rock gradually disappeared, replaced by a forest of stalagmites, and when I looked up, this was a stalactite hanging downwards as a whole, this stalactite was very large in size, giving people a feeling of oppression, they grew upside down through the clouds from the top of this cave, and they docked with the stalagmites that "grew" from the ground, in mid-air. It is connected to a stone object that can penetrate the entire cave.
Watching the stone wheels of these stalagmites climb up one circle after another, I counted them round and round, as if counting the age of the earth, until I was above my head and I gave up my boring actions.
"It has gradually detached itself from the river and is ready to enter the sea."
At this time, some of the lights were turned on, and we saw that the river in front of us was a downhill slope, and the trickle of streams converged down the concave point of this highland, and the flashlight shone in the trickle, and I saw that there would be countless small creatures floating inside, and some of them were squeezed out of the water and directly attached to the stalagmite, which was a thing smaller than a tadpole, and the whole body was transparent, and if your eyesight was better, you could see its main bone.
Descending the slope is an endless view of the sea.
The waters stretch from below the mountain, boundless, vast, wide, and vast.
At this time, the sea seems to be flooded with large waves, and the wind in the distance is getting stronger and stronger, and the cold and humidity in the air gradually increases sharply. I don't know where the sea breeze came from, but I know that this space is absolutely surprisingly large, and it will be very difficult to find the location of the Dragon Hall in it.
"Don't you know a little bit of feng shui? Can you tell where the tomb is? I asked Menkoshibin.
He shook his head: "It's all the water of the underground sea, and you can't see anything about the dragon vein trend." ”
I glanced at Rong Jitong again, and he didn't do anything at this time, so we could only go against the waves and the wind and go to the depths of the sea.
At the end of the Yin Sea, there was no boundary, and I borrowed the searchlight on the ship, only to see that where the light disappeared, the sea and the water melted together, and black became the background, replacing everything.
Soon we were far away from the shore, and there was sea in front of me and around us, and I reached out and fished out a handful of cold water.
"Fog?" As I was talking, I saw a cloud of mist floating on the surface of the sea in the distance.
"What's that?" Kadoshibin saw that thing too.
It was like a cumulonimbus cloud floating less than a foot above the surface of the ocean, moving towards us at turtle speed.
This is not the real sea, this is the sea underground, and it stands to reason that there will be no clouds and mist.
"Poof." Suddenly, I heard the sound of flags fluttering.
"Ding, ding, ding!" And the sound of jingle bells.
We all looked up and felt the sound coming from the cloud in the distance, and we stopped paddling at this point, and the net boat floated on the water, and the cloud was slowly coming.
"There's something in the fog." Rong Jitong said suddenly.
Then as the whole fog enveloped us, there was a white expanse as far as the eye could see, and there were strange sounds in our ears, and no one knew how big the fog was, nor what was in the fog, and the visibility here was very low, and we were covered with water vapor in a short time.
The sea is calm and surprisingly calm, but in this fog is treacherous, revealing a strange side everywhere.
"There's a boat!"
We stood on the net boat, looked in the direction of the door Yue Bin's finger, and sure enough, we found that there was a boat that broke through the fog and sailed over, there was a flag on the boat, and there was a fishing net on the side, and the sound we heard before seemed to come from here, the wind blew the bells in the fishing net, and the sound was endless.
"How can there be a ship in such a hellish place?"
As the ship got closer and closer, I saw a man standing in the bow, and then more than a dozen ships broke through the fog and sailed over, not a ship but a fleet.
"Hey······." I shouted.
But immediately was held down by the woman. She covered my mouth and pinched me in her chest, and before I could feel the soft and fragrant strands of hair, I heard her say, "Do you want to die, what do you think it is?" Fishing vessel? Idiot, what is this place? Will there still be living people? ”
