Chapter 12: The Secret of the Pit (Part 4)

"For what?" I looked at the old prostitute strangely and asked.

The old prostitute first looked around, and then asked me to squat down and listen to him speak carefully, and the old prostitute told me about the conversation between Kui Ye and the little wolf that she had heard in the morning.

It turned out that the story we heard in the camp from 20 years ago was not a complete version, and it was very different from what the old prostitute described now.

Twenty years ago, it was indeed Kui Ye's younger brother who took the lead in going to the tomb, and Kui Ye was indeed not among them, but all the information about the ancient tomb came from the little wolf's father. As for how the little wolf's father found out, Kui Ye and the little wolf didn't make it clear.

However, Kui Ye's younger brother did not come back three days later, the exact time was thirty days later, he was trapped in the tomb for a month, and he was rescued by the Kapaqi people here.

"The location where those clickers saved him is the big pit we went to last night, you can never guess what Kui Ye's younger brother was doing at that time?" The old prostitute looked at me and asked.

Even if the old prostitute doesn't ask me this question, I'm secretly thinking about it. Just listening to the old prostitute talk about the problem of Kuiye's younger brother, it is very different from what I knew about the Tao before.

At the camp, the little wolf and Noke told us that Kuiye's brother had returned in three days, but now the old prostitute had heard that it was thirty days, which was too much of a discrepancy.

To know the Tao, the difference between three days and thirty days is not a simple sentence. A person, no matter how advanced his tomb robbing skills are, has a limited amount of time to survive in the tomb.

First of all, food and water are the biggest problems, no one will prepare enough food for a month before going to the grave, this is simply impossible. If there really is such a tomb robber, then he is not going to rob the tomb, but to go on vacation.

In the tomb robbery industry, there is a common three-point element, no matter what school or sect, it is based on these three points. That is, fast, stable and accurate. Fast is time, and time will always come first. Therefore, after going down to the tomb, the tomb robbers have a strong sense of time, and if they can do it in two hours, they will never do it for half a day, and if they can do it in half a day, they will never do it for a day. Time is the life of a tomb robber.

Although tomb robbers have a higher ability to distribute physical strength than ordinary people, and know how to maintain physical strength and how to recover physical strength quickly, all this is inseparable from food. If you don't consume enough protein, you won't have enough physical strength, and if you don't have physical strength, then don't mention reasonable distribution, not to mention 30 days, even 10 days is almost impossible.

I absolutely believe that I walked out of the tomb without eating or drinking for 3 days, but I am a little skeptical when it is said that it is 30 days. I've heard before that there was a senior named Daifuku in the northern faction who was trapped in the tomb for 12 days before crawling out of the tomb. But after he came out, the whole person collapsed, not to mention physical strength, even the muscles in his body had been exhausted. The only reason for him to successfully come out was his belief, he felt that he should not die in the tomb, so he did not give up, kept thinking, walking, and finding a way out. Later, someone asked him what he lived on for so many days in the tomb, and he said that he relied on his own urine, but on the 8th day, he didn't even have urine, so I doubt that Kuiye's younger brother came out in 30 days.

Don't say how strong Kui Ye's younger brother's survival ability is, even if he has been trapped in the dark underground for a long time, he will definitely not be able to bear the pressure in his heart.

When I thought of Meng Xinrui, I immediately glanced at the old prostitute involuntarily, and instantly felt my scalp tingle, goosebumps all over my body came out, and I suddenly felt a wave of nausea in my stomach.

I began to understand why the old prostitute was asking me this question, and I also realized what Kui Ye's brother was doing when he was rescued. He must have been eating Noke's father's body, or he would never have been in the grave for 30 days, and I saw Noke's father's body last night, with obvious signs of gnawing on his legs.

Last night, I thought it was a wound gnawed by a corpse worm, but I didn't expect it to be eaten by Kuiye's younger brother, so it seems that everything becomes much more reasonable.

The old prostitute looked at my face a little ugly and said, "Don't answer me, you must have thought of it." I didn't wake up early this morning, and I heard and saw a lot of strange things. ”

"Okay, don't sell it, what have you heard, say it." I said impatiently.

The old prostitute continued to tell me what he had heard in the morning.

He said that it was Kui Ye who told the little wolf that the hundred-meter-long pit last night was not an underground dark river, but one of the drainage channels of the ancient tomb in Miaoshan.

But what Kui Ye couldn't understand was that this drainage canal was dozens of kilometers away from Miaoshan, and for some reason, the big pit would collapse every ten years, and the area of the collapse was constantly expanding every time.

What made Kui Ye even more puzzled was that the ancient corpses in the water that he saw last night would appear in the pit every ten years when they collapsed.

When I heard the old prostitute talk about this, I felt very curious, and I couldn't help but ask: "You mean, those ancient corpses that were pushed into the whirlpool by the Kapaqi people last night will still appear in the pit ten years later?" ”

The old prostitute looked at me and nodded, and said, "Amazing! ”

I thought to myself, what the hell is this surprise, it's just magical, and I don't know if the old prostitute is adding fuel to the vinegar, I can't understand what he just said.

Just when I was still wondering what the old prostitute said, someone suddenly coughed behind us, which frightened me and the old prostitute instinctively got up and took two steps forward.

Looking back, Kui Ye was standing behind us. I don't know when he appeared behind us, but the old prostitute and I didn't even notice it, and I don't know if he heard the conversation between me and the old prostitute.

Kui Ye's appearance was too sudden, which made me feel very embarrassed, after all, what we are talking about here is what the old prostitute overheard in the morning, and I always feel a little scared in my heart, as if we were talking bad about others behind our backs and were caught.

For a while, my wife and I didn't know what to say, and the two of us stood for dozens of seconds without speaking. In the end, it was Kui Ye who spoke first, and said to me: "What he said is not wrong at all, you don't have to doubt what he said, those corpses are like they can swim, and they will return to that big pit every ten years." ”

Hearing Kui Ye say this, I was even more unnatural, and my heart said, damn it, it seems that he heard what I said to the old prostitute. But if you think about it carefully, I don't think it's anything, after all, there are no secrets about him, and listening to the tone of his voice, I don't care about what the old prostitute told me.

Next, what Kui Ye said to us surprised me and the old prostitute.
