Chapter Fifty-Eight: Bursting
"Why can't this door be opened?" Zheng Tian looked anxious, and then threw his eyes on Uncle Dao for help.
"Accept your fate, I can't help it, maybe those treasures shouldn't be owned by anyone." Uncle Dao shook his head and said.
After hearing this, Zheng Tian angrily kicked the chrome door a few times, but the door never responded. He scolded and scolded, and his heart was very uncomfortable, the video was not taken, and the treasure was not fished, but he was injured, and this transaction was really a loss.
"This place is not suitable for long, let's move on." Uncle Dao spoke.
Although Zheng Tian was still reluctant to give up on those treasures, there was nothing to do at the moment, so he had to nod first.
"Wait, do you smell anything strange?" Wei Yin, who was beside me, suddenly stopped Uncle Dao, who was about to start, and said to us.
"What else can it smell like? I now smell of gold and silver in my nose. Zheng Tian replied dejectedly.
Wei Yin didn't say that I hadn't noticed it yet, but when she said this, I suddenly noticed that the smell nearby had become a little wrong, and I felt that the air was wet, and there was indeed a strange smell, and this strange smell became stronger and stronger, gradually evolving into a burst of irritating gases, and this smell seemed to be somewhat familiar...... It's like the smell of the stinging pool before.
"Not good!" Uncle Dao, who noticed something, suddenly exclaimed, and he shook his flashlight around us and said, "The walls on both sides of the secret passage are cracking!" ”
We immediately looked in both directions, and sure enough, there were many cracks in the walls on both sides, and they were constantly expanding, and some unknown liquid seeped out of them.
At this time, our hearts were panicked to the extreme, because this secret passage was located at the bottom of the sting pool in the previous palace, and if there was any liquid that penetrated in, it was the stinging water that could corrode us into slag, no wonder the smell around us was so familiar......
"How can you say that this wall cracks?" Zheng Tian was still immersed in his golden dream just now, and he didn't react, but now when he saw this formation, he asked in a panic.
"And ask so much what to do! Run! After Uncle Dao said this, we came to our senses and rushed forward desperately.
As our pace quickened, the cracks on the walls on both sides became bigger and bigger, and the carved patterns on them had been completely corroded and blurred, and the black stinging water continued to flow down from the wall, mixed with writhing ghost stings, wandering around us like countless ghosts.
In less than five minutes, my feet were covered with stinging water, which was full of strong acid, and I felt that my shoes were basically corroded to the point of shapelessness.
I felt a little annoyed in my heart, I knew that I didn't look at those treasures just now, but now it's a good thing, I have lost time, and I have to pay for my life.
"Damn, why can't you run to the end of this hanging place! If we continue like this, we'll all have fun! Zheng Tian scolded with tears.
"It's not noisy, it's better to save some effort, keep running and it will always come to an end!" Seventh Brother said.
I limped, shaking my body as I ran, and asked Uncle in a very embarrassed manner, "Uncle, do you still have a fire fold?" I felt the stings coming at me. ”
Uncle Dao shook his head: "It's already used up, and now it's full of stinging water, even if there is a fire, it can't be burned!" ”
This may really be the end of the game, the sting water is no better than other water, if it is ordinary H2O, as long as this secret passage is not filled, then we still have the hope of swimming out, but now it is H2O + concentrated HCL + concentrated HNO3 + all kinds of strange and messy mixture, I am afraid that only the soul can swim out at that time.
Now the walls on both sides of the passage have almost fallen off, and what was originally just a little oozing water is now flowing out, and to make matters worse, the walls above our heads are beginning to crack and fall off.
Time is running out.
We dragged our tired and disabled bodies forward for a few hundred meters, and suddenly found a bright light shining overhead, which was like opening a window of hope for us who had been running desperately in the endless secret passage for a long time.
"There should be a thief hole on the top, we just need to go up to the thief hole, and we can avoid these stings!" Uncle Dao shouted to stop us.
"You're right, we can't fly, how can we go up!" Zheng Tian said as he shook off the ghost sting that had crawled on him.
"yes, we don't even have the basic ropes now, we can't get on." I shook my head and said in despair.
"It's really hard to stack Arhats! I want to go to the bottom, you step on me and go up, here is only four or five meters high, you should work hard! After speaking, Brother Qi squatted down and motioned for me to step on it first, it seems that he wants to sacrifice himself and save everyone.
When I was standing in place and still hesitating, Zheng Tian on the side spoke first: "That feeling is good!" In society, there is a lack of Lei Feng who loves to do good deeds like you, and he will definitely send you a pennant when he goes out! ”
After saying that, he was anxious to step on it first, and I stopped him: "No matter what, it's the lady first, pay attention to literacy!" ”
Zheng Tian glanced at Wei Yin on the side and made a gesture of please, but Wei Yin seemed a little embarrassed and delayed acting.
"Oops! I said, Miss, don't waste any more time! If you don't go up, I'll get on! Zheng Tian said anxiously.
At this moment, Uncle Dao suddenly pointed to the entrance of the cave and said in surprise: "Look! ”
We looked up again, and found that there was a rope in the thief cave that was slowly lowered, and soon fell in front of us.
"What's going on? God has opened his eyes? Brother Qi straightened up, a little incredulous at this sudden rescue.
Anyway, let's go up first! We climbed up the rope one by one, and since the height was not too high, in a minute or so, all five of us were up to the hole.
When we went up, we found that it was empty, which means that the person who had just lowered the rope had left for some unknown reason.
We looked around closely, and found that there was still a passage ahead, almost parallel to the secret passage where we had just been, and there were some grooves in the earthen walls on both sides, and in the grooves were kerosene lamps that had just been lit.
"You said it wouldn't be the fat man who saved us just now, he might still be alive." Zheng Tian looked at the empty thief cave and said.
"No, even if he is still alive, after saving us, there is no reason to leave without saying a word." I don't agree with Zheng Tian's idea.
"You guys come and see this, it's a military product." Seventh Brother pointed to the flying claw that fixed the rope and said.
When Zheng Tian and I saw the flying claw, we almost unanimously shouted: God! This claw is exactly what those Masked Men used in the previous battle against Batmaster!
Could it be that the person who saved us just now was the Mask Man?
Because Uncle Dao had also met those masked people before, he was not surprised when he heard us say this, Uncle Dao squatted down and looked at the flying claw carefully and said, "It seems that it was indeed those masked people who sent us a lifeline just now. ”
Since Uncle Dao also said so, it should be fine, but who are they and why did they save us repeatedly?
Uncle Dao stood up and said to us: "Ignore them for now, let's continue to walk forward, no accident, the exit is in front." ”
