Chapter 501: Sacrifice He Zitong

The rushing underground river lying in it made me look a little dazed. The width of the underground river is about five zhang, and when you look over the surface of the underground river, you can vaguely see a very high gate-like object on the ground.

Unlike the snow-capped mountains of the western plateau, it is rare for such a wide underground river to exist in the Central Plains such as Henan.

If I hadn't seen the underground river right in front of me with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that there would be such a wide underground river in the Central Plains.

We don't know where the underground river started, but it is conceivable that it flowed from a long distance, and it is not known that it took tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years to form such a scale.

On the surface of the underground river, you can faintly see many raised stones between the rushing water, like small islands.

Most of these rocks are not very high, and most of them are flush with the surface of the underground river, and can only be seen when the height of the river changes occasionally.

Fortunately, the underground river is still just an underground river, and if the underground cave we are in now becomes an underground lake, there is really no way for us to move on.

But even so, in the face of such a fast-flowing underground river, I still feel a little headache.

Without boats and other equipment to cross the river, it is undoubtedly very difficult to cross this underground river, which is five feet wide, and it is easy to have unpredictable accidents.

"Sister Lizi, there seems to be someone in the river." At this moment, Xiao Yue suddenly shouted loudly.

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback and looked towards the surface of the underground river. But when I looked at the surface of the underground river again, the scene was still the same as before, except for the rushing water and the occasional rocks that appeared on the surface.

"Don't talk nonsense, there's no one in this river." I said to Xiao Yue with some dissatisfaction.

We've been through so much in this tomb that we've nearly lost our lives several times, and now we've become frightened birds.

Xiao Yue said such words inexplicably, which would undoubtedly scare people to death.

"It's true, I just saw it, and it's there." Xiao Yue had an aggrieved expression on his face, and after speaking, he pointed to a certain place on the surface of the underground river.

I looked where she was pointing, but I still didn't see the person she was talking about, and I already thought it was this guy talking nonsense.

Since the moment this ancient tomb was built, there have been no tomb robbers and other people breaking in, and how can there be people inside.

If there were anyone, it would be either a living corpse or a ghost, neither of which I would want.

Not only did I not see the person Xiao Yue said in the underground river, but the others quickly shook their heads after looking at the water, obviously not seeing anything.

"Xiao Yue, don't be surprised, it's scary enough." Dong Shuang whispered.

"I was so surprised, I saw it just now." Xiao Yue said. I didn't pay attention to Xiao Yue anymore, this guy probably made an old mistake again, and he became fond of playing tricks on people again.

No one believed Xiao Yue's words, and naturally no one paid attention to her anymore. How could there be people in an underground river that has been flowing for an unknown number of years, it is impossible to know just by thinking about it, unless it is really hell.

I hesitated for a moment and took a few steps forward again. Turning the flashlight in my hand to the brightest it possible, I shone towards the other side of the underground river.

Compared to the first time, this time I could clearly see that on the other side of the underground river was a very tall gate.

If nothing else, behind this gate should be the ghost town mentioned by the ghost lady, and most of the people in front of us are a moat.

However, most of the cities built by the ancients had moats, and the greatest use was to defend against the enemy in the event of war.

Just like what we saw in the Baiqi Tomb at the beginning, there is also an underground blood river inside, which is almost the same as the underground river in front of us.

Presumably, when Liu Zhu, the king of Chen Huai, built his own mausoleum, he also copied the pattern of the city where he lived.

The underground river in front of him is naturally not used to guard against any army, but to block those intruders of later generations, such as us.

I don't know if it's because there is too much water vapor in this underground space or for some other reason, but the flashlight in my hand that can shine fifty meters away, the light has become a little faint just by crossing the underground river with a width of five feet, so that I can't completely see the specific appearance of the city gate opposite.

Then I turned my attention to the underground river. When the flashlight shines into the river, you can clearly see that there are many dark green aquatic plants growing on the bottom of the river.

These aquatic plants grow extremely luxuriantly, swaying in the river, almost completely obscuring the bottom of the underground river.

I couldn't help but frown at the sight of these aquatic plants at the bottom of the river. Nowadays we don't have boats or anything else, and we have to swim through the water to cross the underground river, and these extremely dense aquatic plants are a big threat.

The aquatic weeds are constantly swaying in the flowing water, and it is very likely that we will get wrapped directly around our legs when we swim through the underground river, and it is difficult to imagine the serious consequences at that time.

Swimming in the turbulent underground river, once entangled in aquatic weeds, the whole person will become extremely nervous, and it may not be possible to be directly washed away by the water of the underground river under the random struggle.

And being swept away by the dark underground river, you don't have to think about it to know that it is a dead end, and there will be no hope of survival at all.

Seeing that the ghost town is not far from us, it is naturally impossible for us to do this, not to mention that those tomb robbers will not allow us to retreat now.

What worries me the most is Li Huiyan, she has just woken up, and her physical condition is still very weak.

You must know that the water of most underground rivers is very cold, and the underground river in front of us is naturally no exception.

With Li Huiyan's physical condition, if she comes into contact with these cold underground rivers again, it is very likely that she will become the same as before, and it will be really troublesome at that time.

"Xiao Yan, if you don't cross the river, stay here and wait for our news." I thought about it and said to Li Huiyan.

Anyway, if Li Huiyan wants to cross the river in such a physical state, I won't be relieved to say anything.

It's okay if there is no accident, but if something happens, I'm afraid it's too late for me to regret it.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Li Huiyan shook her head and said.

"How can it be okay, you are just a little better, your body is still so weak, if you soak in such cold river water for a long time, there will definitely be problems." I said.

Now that so many people are present, it is naturally impossible to take off your clothes to cross the underground river, and it is nothing to soak in the underground river for a short time, but you still need to put on the clothes on your body later, which is a great challenge to the body.

Not to mention Li Huiyan's current physical condition, I just feel a little trembling when I think of this.

"I'm really fine, I'm feeling a lot better now." Li Huiyan shook her head again and said.

Li Huiyan has a stubborn personality and is competitive and does not admit defeat, she definitely does not want me to treat her as a patient, but I have to do it.

It's just that Li Huiyan insisted on crossing the underground river, and I didn't know how to stop it. I know Li Huiyan's passion for archaeology, and now that she can reach the core of the tomb of King Chen of the Eastern Han Dynasty as long as she crosses the underground river, how can she miss this opportunity.

After all, our tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty has experienced so many dangers, isn't this what we are doing, if you think about it from another perspective, even if I encounter such a situation, I am not willing to stop there.

"Otherwise, let's swim over and take a look first, and let Xiao Yue and Dong Shuang accompany you first. If you're sure there's no danger on the other side, I'll come back and pick you up. Eventually, I took a step back and said to Li Huiyan.

"Well, you can't lie to me." Li Huiyan nodded and said. Li Huiyan can't swim, and if I really cross the river and don't come to pick her up, there is really no way for her to cross the river.

The width of this underground river is about five zhang, and just listening to the sound of the underground river can know how turbulent the river is, and it is almost impossible for a person who does not understand the nature of water to cross the river.

The matter was settled, and I said a few more words to Xiao Yue and Dong Shuang, and then walked to the tomb robbers not far away.

"Brother Lei, as long as you cross this river, it will be the core area of the tenth tomb, you don't have any problems, right?" I said directly to Brother Lei.

"Of course, no problem, crossing the river is a trivial matter for us." Brother Lei nodded and said.

"Well, that's it, let's talk about it after we cross the river." I said. Later, in order not to arouse suspicion, I explained Li Huiyan's situation in detail.

Hearing this, Brother Lei and those tomb robbers were not embarrassed, and they tacitly agreed that Li Huiyan could not cross the river for the time being.

Looking at the rushing river, I couldn't help but murmur to myself. If all these grave robbers were swept away by the water of the underground river when they crossed the river, it would save us a lot of trouble.

Of course, this is just a matter of thinking, and it is basically impossible to happen. I glanced at the aquatic weeds at the bottom of the river, but I couldn't help but feel a little worried, and I didn't know if there was any danger hidden in these aquatic weeds.

I still remember that when we were in Bai Qi's tomb, we encountered a lot of ghoul fish in the underground river, and if there were also ghoul fish in this underground river, it would be really bad.

Don't look at the ability to protect ourselves when we are on the shore, once we are in the river, it is impossible to have the slightest chance of survival in the face of the corpse fish, after all, the water is the world of the corpse fish.
