Chapter 118: The Underground River of Blood
"Sister Lizi, I'm a little scared." Xiao Yue shuddered, and said to Li Huiyan with a trembling voice.
"It's okay, there are so many of us." Li Huiyan comforted.
What surprised me a little was that Li Huiyan's voice sounded a little nervous, and she seemed to feel a little uncomfortable with the strange changes in her surroundings.
The atmosphere became a little oppressive, and the further down the stairs we went, the harder it became for the flashlights and torches to shine through, and the smaller the range we could see.
We walked for a long time, and suddenly a gust of fishy wind came from the bottom of the stone steps, and it was strange that the smell of this fishy wind was not only not unpleasant, but after smelling for a long time, there was an indescribable smell, which was actually a bit addictive.
All the way down, although everyone walked cautiously, in the end there was an accident.
Perhaps because he was too fat and had walked for too long, Liu Laoqi's nephew Donggua, who was walking in front, suddenly slipped under his feet, and then leaned back and fell on the stone steps.
If an ordinary person falls like this, it will be a buttocks at most, and it will not cause too serious consequences.
But winter melon is different, his body is round and fat like an inflatable ball.
After the winter melon fell to the sky, he sat on the edge of the stone steps and immediately let out a miserable scream. Before everyone could react, an even more dumbfounded scene happened, as soon as the fat butt of the winter melon touched the stone steps, the whole person was immediately bounced out again.
"Holy." Seeing this, Yang Baichuan, who was walking behind, burst into a foul language.
At the same time, after being ejected by the fat on his body, the winter melon was already panicking, and he only had time to protect his head with his hands, and the whole person shrank into a ball and rolled down the stone steps.
In the dimly lit tombway, you can only see a huge ball of meat rolling downward, emitting a series of screams like killing pigs.
Because he couldn't control his body, after falling, the winter melon almost knocked Liu Laoqi and Village Chief Yao, who were walking in front, to the ground, but fortunately, the two old guys reacted quickly enough to dodge in time when the meat ball-like body of the winter melon was about to approach. When the fat body of the winter melon passed by, Liu Laoqi tried to reach out and grab him, but in the end he almost put himself in.
The muffled sound and screams echoed in the tomb passage, and the downward winding tomb was pitch black, and I didn't know how many stone steps there were.
"Young Master Yang, please save my nephew. My brother died early, and there is only such a lone seedling left in the family, if something happens, how can I explain to my brother after a hundred years. Liu Laoqi quickly ran to Yang Baichuan and pleaded loudly.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, thinking to myself that you know that your nephew is the only seedling in the family, and you dare to bring him into this dangerous ancient tomb.
"Brother Baichuan." Although I thought so in my heart, as soon as Liu Laoqi's words fell, I also said a word to Yang Baichuan.
Not long ago, two of us had just lost two of us, and if we let the melon roll like this, even if we didn't die in the end, we would definitely be half-dead, which is not what I wanted to see.
Yang Baichuan was indifferent to Liu Laoqi's request, and it was not until he heard my words that he left to run under the tomb.
Yang Baichuan really deserves to practice light body kung fu, even on such a slippery ladder, he is still fast, but in a moment, he has already caught up with the winter melon that is rolling down.
However, before Yang Baichuan could make a move, the fat body of the winter melon rolling down had suddenly stopped, making a muffled sound as if it had hit something.
I don't know if it's because of too much fat on his body, the winter melon has been rolling on the stone steps for so long, and he was only slightly injured, and his rolling body immediately climbed up as soon as he stopped.
When all of us followed, we found that the stone steps had come to an end, and what was blocking the body of the winter melon was a bright red stone tablet that was two meters high and half a foot thick. On the front of the stele, only two large characters "Huangquan" are carved in seal script.
The bright red stone tablet seems to blend in with the surrounding dark environment, and with the word Huangquan carved on the stone tablet, everything looks so weird.
After observing the stele for a moment, my attention was drawn to something else.
Looking over the stone monument, the direction behind him is a small river four or five meters wide, the river is inconspicuous, but the river inside makes people unable to take their eyes off it.
Unlike the crystal clear water of the underground river that I encountered before, the water in the small river behind the stele was actually red, and it faintly exuded a fishy sweet smell.
Seeing this scene, I was a little shocked in my heart, judging from the fishy sweet smell emanating from the red river water, this and all the blood flowing in it was actually there.
Not only me, but even Liu Laoqi, who has been a tomb robber for half his life, was stunned when he saw the river of blood, obviously he had never seen such a scene.
"Rice cake, let me beat it, I suspect I'm dreaming." Looking at the river of blood in front of him, Xiao Yue also said with a dull expression.
"Why are you beating me, you just pinch yourself." I replied angrily.
"I'm afraid of pain." Xiao Yue replied as a matter of course.
I don't pay attention to her anymore, if it's a dream, then everyone is dreaming too.
"Village Chief Yao, what's going on?" I turned to look at Village Chief Yao and asked.
To make such a large-scale river of blood, how can you kill hundreds of thousands of people to do it, the owner of this ancient tomb is really not an ordinary person, and the horror is far beyond our previous imagination.
"I don't know." Village Chief Yao pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head and said, "The ancestors of our Yao family are only responsible for guarding the tomb of the general, and as for other things, many of them are unknown to us. ”
Village Chief Yao swore by this, but I saw his eyes flickering, obviously there was something hidden and unspoken.
"Impossible, even the grave keepers don't know these things, so who else can know?" I was a little dead set and said again.
As for the words of Village Chief Yao, I now pursue the principle of three parts of truth and seven points of falsehood, and I can't believe it but I can't believe it. For example, now, Village Chief Yao obviously has something to hide from us, but he doesn't say it, and we are a little helpless.
"Brother Three, if you really want to know, my ancestors have passed down a saying called crossing the Yellow Spring, cutting off life and death. In the past, when I saw this sentence, I couldn't understand enough, but now when I see this blood river and the word Huangquan on the stone tablet, I finally understand it a little. Yang Baichuan turned around and said.
"Crossing the Yellow Spring? Breaking life and death? I muttered to myself.
Huangquan should be the name given to this blood river by the owner of the tomb, and it is indeed very consistent with the appearance of this blood river, but the three words of life and death are a little difficult to understand, is it cut off? Broken? Or judgment?
I couldn't help but take a few steps forward to the edge of the river of blood and take a closer look.
The closer they got, the stronger the smell of blood emanating from the river of blood became, and it began to be a little unbearable.
"Zhang Sansan, be careful, there is something in this river." Seeing that I wanted to go to the edge of the blood river, Li Huiyan hurriedly stepped forward and reminded.
"No, are you mistaken?" I stared at the river of blood a few times, and I didn't see anything in it other than the normal waves from the current.
As if to confirm Li Huiyan's words, as soon as my words fell, the blood river, which originally seemed to be quite calm, suddenly became no longer calm, and countless ripples rippled out in the river, splashing high blood-colored waves.
Village Chief Yao, Liu Laoqi, and the Yang family brothers and sisters also gathered around, and everyone was a little curious about what was in this river of blood.
The next moment, a picture appeared that made everyone's eyes widen.
On the surface of the Blood River, which was originally empty, a small black hole the size of a bowl suddenly appeared, followed by a second and a third......
In less than half a minute, thousands of black holes appeared on the surface of the river.
However, when I saw the specific appearance of these black holes, I suddenly felt a chill all over my body, and I had the heart to die, and I could no longer afford to cross the river.
"It's ...... Ghoul fish? Li Huiyan asked with some uncertainty.
"That's right, it's a corpse fish, much bigger and more powerful than the corpse fish I've seen before." Before I could say anything, Liu Laoqi replied on the side.
After receiving an accurate answer, Li Huiyan's face was also a little pale, not that she was too timid, but that these ghoul fish were too terrifying.
At the beginning, we encountered dozens of corpse fish in the underground river, and we were already busy and almost killed, and now the number of corpse fish in this blood river is in the thousands, how can we fight? Combat effectiveness is not a grade at all, right?
"Sister Lizi, why don't we go back." Although Xiao Yue had never seen a corpse fish, when she saw the dense black fish mouth on the river, she instinctively felt fear and fear, so she didn't want to stay here.
"Village Chief Yao, you can't help this kind of thing, right?" I looked at Village Chief Yao and said in a deep voice.
"Old man, what can I do?" Village Chief Yao said with an expression of not knowing anything.
I couldn't help but jump up and scold my mother, but at this time, this old guy still refused to tell the truth, it was really the stone in the pit that smelled and hard.
If you can't solve these ghoul fish in the blood river, it is wishful thinking to cross the blood river, and a big living person jumps down, I am afraid that there will be no bones left in ten seconds.
The atmosphere was a little stiff for a while, Liu Laoqi lowered his head and said something in front of Village Chief Yao, but Village Chief Yao didn't speak, just kept shaking his head.
Thousands of ghoul fish gradually sank to the bottom of the river of blood, and the surface of the river returned to its calm appearance, who could believe that there were so many terrifying killers hiding under the calm waters of the river if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
We really want to go to the main tomb, because Lu Cheng may be there, but that is also on the premise of ensuring that he is not in danger, and this situation is obviously not the case now, and crossing the river of blood is purely looking for death.
