Chapter 23: The Cracks

I hugged Xiao Ma's cold body tightly, although this nephew had only known me for a short time, but he was deeply seared in my heart. Ma Daha couldn't cry anymore, his eyes were red, and his hands were still shaking Xiao Ma's body. I can understand his feelings, a brother who has grown up playing since childhood, and even has a deeper affection than his own brother.

The little wolf walked up to Madahar, helped him up, and hugged his head tightly to his chest. Although I didn't see the little wolf cry, I felt that he felt no more uncomfortable inside. This is the first time I feel that the little wolf is not so cold-blooded, and he is also a person with feelings.

Ma Daha's cry was even more heartbreaking, and I didn't try to persuade him, but hoped that he could release all the sorrow in his heart. This is the second time I have watched my nephews lose their lives by my side, and I am really ashamed of their masters, and even more ashamed of them.

Sometimes, I really wonder if I am no longer suitable for this industry, and more and more people are leaving, maybe I will be the next one to leave. I began to understand the cold-bloodedness of the little wolf, maybe he was used to this scene, so it was nothing in his eyes.

"Don't be sad, deal with him, the road ahead of us will be even more difficult." The little wolf stared at me.

After 3 minutes, I asked, "What to do?" ”

"I'm going to bring him back." Madahar spoke with a weeping voice, and there was a slight tremor in his words.

Actually, I know very well that we can't take him out of the road at all, and we don't know what lies ahead. At that time, I said that I wanted to take Xiao Ma Yo out of the city, just to comfort him, and in the current situation, we are not capable of taking him out of the city.

"We can't take him out, and it's still unknown whether we can get out." The wolf's voice was very low.

Listening to what the little wolf said, Ma Daha glanced at me and said, "Seventh Uncle, didn't you say that you would take him out?" ”

I was speechless when I asked this sentence, I don't know how to answer, I did promise Xiao Ma to take him out, but that ....... Even I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do. The little wolf looked at me, guessed what I was thinking, dragged Ma Daha and said, "Don't be stupid, he's dead, he already belongs here." ”

Ma Daha wanted to say something, but the little wolf stopped him, and we picked up some gravel in the cave together, even if it was to make a grave for Xiao Ma Yo.

Although everyone is very sad now, there is still a way to go, and everything ahead still has to be faced. Ma Daha took off the necklace around Xiao Ma's neck, put it in his arms, and we continued along the cave. There was very little communication along the way, and Ma Daha, who was originally very fond of asking questions, fell silent.

The little wolf walked in front of him and suddenly stopped. I followed his flashlight and saw symbols painted on the stones on both sides of the cave wall. It's the same symbol we've seen before, but only one has appeared before, and this time there are no less than dozens on both sides of the cave wall.

The little wolf took a flashlight and carefully looked at each symbol on the cave wall, which was not painted, but carved on the cave wall, and it was carved very deeply. I'm used to observing the little wolf's face now, because when something happens, his expression is very strict, but this time he didn't have any strange expression on his face.

I was confused, and after looking at it for a while, the little wolf nodded at the cave wall and motioned for us to continue. Fifty meters ahead, there was a clearing, and there was no way to go directly opposite. It's a dead end, it should be a storage room with all sorts of stuff piled up.

There were the small wooden carts we saw when we came, and some iron tools that had been badly corroded, and on the other side there were a lot of cotton wool, and there were still a few corpses in the cotton wool. Although the clothes of these bones have been weathered and damaged, it can be clearly seen that they are not modern people. The clothes are made of very old coarse cloth, and there is a corpse's clothes, which should be an official uniform, like the Sui and Tang dynasties.

There are many narrow beds on the side of the cotton wool wall, and there are several ancient military hanging pots behind them. It seems that this is where these bones live, but I don't know why they died there. Leaning against the opposite wall, there are many wooden shelves, which are held in place by iron. It looks very neat.

When I walked over, it turned out that the wooden frame was built from top to bottom, and a 3-meter-wide crack appeared on the side of the wall. When the flashlight shines, you can't see the bottom at all, and there are all this dense wooden shelves below.

The little wolf seemed to be looking for something, one by one the wood to look closely. I saw what he was looking at, and I was looking at it, but when I touched the wooden frame with my hand, a few pieces of wood scattered down, and it seemed that the fixed iron was corroded.

However, these connected woods are very strong, and they feel very smooth to the touch, so they should be smeared on the outside. There were symbols drawn on this log, and I immediately understood what the little wolf was looking for, he was looking for a wooden sign with a symbol, but I didn't know exactly what kind of symbol it was, because I couldn't understand this kind of symbol at all.

The little wolf walked to the innermost wooden shelf and stopped, shook the wooden shelf with his hand, and in an instant several wooden sticks fell, but the large frame was not damaged. He beckoned to us, and Madahar and I followed.

"We have to go down from here, I'll go first, you follow me, pay attention to the wood under your feet." The little wolf pointed down and said, "I don't know what the situation is down there, but there must be danger, so be vigilant at all times." ”

Ma Daha and I nodded, and the little wolf began to descend the wooden shelf first. I looked at Ma Dahar and was very worried, he had not yet come out of the grief of losing Xiao Ma Yo. I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Cheer up, don't think too much, go down for a while, don't get distracted." It looks like it's not just a few tens of meters deep. ”

Ma Daha agreed, and began to follow the little wolf down, and I was the last one. It seems that the movements of the little wolf are very simple, but we don't know how difficult it is until we actually practice it. From time to time, there was the sound of falling wood being stepped on by the little wolf.

I'm the best at the bottom, it's already a safety wooden frame that the little wolf has tried, but the spacing of the wood is a little too high, and in some places, I need to hang my hands on the wood on the top and cross my feet to step on the wood below. It's about 20 meters down, and I'm already wheezing.

Actually, I'm a little afraid of heights, but fortunately, it's dark and I can't see the bottom, so I'm not so scared, but I really haven't practiced this kind of intensity of climbing down, especially when the distance between up and down is too large, I can feel my blood pressure rise.

At another high distance, I hugged the wood above, and as soon as I put my foot down, I felt something grab my leg again, and it was obvious that it was not a human hand.
