Chapter Eighty-Three: Enter the Serpent's Cave

"It's okay to help you find classmates, but old man, I have to state in advance that I have never been to that place in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, I am only responsible for bringing you to the place, as for how you want to save people, I will not interfere, even if there is any danger, I will only stand by."

Hearing my request, Village Chief Yao was silent for a moment before speaking.

"Well, as long as the village chief is willing to promise to take us to the place, the rest will be left to us." I nodded.

I had to lower my posture at the moment, and I didn't expect him to help us anyway.

After learning that the size of this general's tomb was so terrifying, it would be tantamount to an idiot's dream for us to find Qin Dong and the three of them, and now we had to rely on the help of Village Chief Yao, who was familiar with the structure of the ancient tomb, to lead the way.

After finalizing everything, Village Chief Yao began to walk forward.

During this period, I also inquired about the health of the village chief, and we didn't know what to do if he was worried about his recurrence in a while.

When Village Chief Yao heard this, he had an attitude that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, saying that he had already had an old problem, and he would have an attack every two months, which would not be in the way.

I didn't say anything more when I saw this, and I didn't dare to fall behind him even a step.

It's not that I want to say the kind of schadenfreude, but if I really want to talk about it, Village Chief Yao's illness can be regarded as helping us a lot.

If it weren't for his sudden illness, it would have been impossible for us to bump into him, but in the end, we didn't know that the person who had been hiding in the shadows was actually him.

Village Chief Yao led the way in front, and during this time, we passed through three tombs again, and the further we went, the larger the scale of the tombs we encountered, and it was obvious that the identity of these people was higher than the previous green hair zongzi and white hair zongzi.

Along the way, I have become more and more immemorable to the tomb builders who built the general's tomb, and some inconspicuous places in the tomb road may hide the tomb door.

If it weren't for Village Chief Yao leading the way, we wouldn't have been able to see it anyway.

After about half an hour of walking, the bluestone slabs under their feet gradually became wet, and the ground was covered with extremely smooth dark green moss, so that everyone had to be careful with every step.

After walking in this slippery tomb passage for a short time, a moss-covered tomb door appeared in front of it, and in front of the tomb door there were several dry bones that were also covered with moss.

Since the tomb door is covered in moss, it is impossible to tell with the naked eye whether it is a stone gate or a bronze door.

"There is the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave in front, and the method of opening the tomb door has been told to you on the way, and it has been said in advance that I will not go in with you." Village Chief Yao stopped more than two feet away from the tomb gate and turned back to us.

Hearing this, before I could speak, I heard Xiao Yue say on the side: "What if you, the old man, left us and ran away?" I think I should find a rope to tie you up. ”

Xiao Yue's words also made me nod secretly, in case Village Chief Yao sneaked away when we entered the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, then where can we find someone?

"You...... You little girl is talking nonsense, old man, how can I be such a person who does not believe in his words? Village Chief Yao was so angry by Xiao Yue's words that he blew his beard and glared, and said with anger on his face.

Having said that, I was still a little uneasy about Village Chief Yao, so I thought about it and said, "It's better to tie it up, there is no rope here." We're going to look for Qin Dong and them now, only one torch on our bodies is not enough, or we can borrow Village Chief Yao's flashlight to use it, and return it to the old man when we come back." ”

After speaking, I looked at Village Chief Yao again and asked, "Village Chief Yao, is this okay?" ”

In order not to make the relationship too stiff with Village Chief Yao, this is already the best way I can think of.

I thought very clearly in my heart, even if Village Chief Yao was the tomb keeper, even if he was familiar with this ancient tomb, it would be impossible for him to go out in an environment where the light was blind and there was no light.

If he can do it, it will only be our bad luck.

Hearing this, Village Chief Yao's face changed constantly, and finally he had to nod his head, which was considered to agree to my proposal.

Seeing that Village Chief Yao agreed, Xiao Yue snatched the flashlight from his hand and shook it in front of him in a demonstrative manner.

In the face of the unreasonable Xiao Yue, Village Chief Yao simply didn't have the slightest temper, even if he was so angry that his face turned blue, he didn't say a word. With Xiao Yue's violent temper, if Village Chief Yao dared to say more, Xiao Yue would definitely dare to burn his beard with a torch.

"Don't worry, I can assure you that he won't go." At this time, Yang Baichuan suddenly spoke.

I was stunned for a moment, remembering what happened before, there must be some ulterior secret between the Yang family brothers and sisters and the village chief Yao.

Now that Yang Baichuan has come out to play the round, and Xiao Yue has successfully snatched the flashlight from Village Chief Yao, we will naturally not continue to embarrass him, after all, there are still many things to rely on him to help in the future.

Leaving Village Chief Yao alone to wait in place, the other five of us slowly approached the tomb gate.

Xiao Yue walked at the end, staring back at Village Chief Yao step by step, and raised his small fist from time to time, as if warning Village Chief Yao to stay where he was and not to escape.

As I approached the tomb door, I looked up and down with some curiosity.

I found that the tomb door in front of me was covered with thick moss, and there was no way to see the tomb door as it was, but judging from the appearance alone, it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.

Yang Yuqing was eager to try on the side, as if he wanted to kick open the tomb door, Yang Baichuan obviously knew his sister very well, and whispered a warning.

According to what Village Chief Yao said, we soon found four slightly raised switches on the four corners of the tomb door.

Village Chief Yao said before that as long as the switch in the lower right corner and the upper left corner was pressed at the same time, the tomb door could be successfully opened.

In addition, any other method will only trigger the defense mechanism of the tomb gate, and all the offenders will be killed in the future, and these moss-covered dry bones at the tomb door are a lesson from the past.

After everyone discussed, it was decided that Yang Baichuan and I would press the switch together.

The switch in the lower right corner is easy to say, everyone can get it, but the button in the upper left corner is a little high, even Yang Baichuan and I can only stand on tiptoe to press it.

"1, 2, 3, press." Xiao Yue, who is doing good things, acted as a conductor on the side, and as soon as her voice fell, Yang Baichuan and I pressed two switches at the same time.

Thundered......

At the same time as the switch was pressed, a series of dull sounds sounded in the tomb passage, like thunder, and then the tomb door in front of him parted from the middle, and a gap appeared.

There was a gap in the tomb door, which made me breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that Village Chief Yao did not lie to us, and opened the tomb door according to the method he said was very successful.

Perhaps because it hadn't been opened for too long, the door of the tomb stuck there halfway through the opening.

In the end, we had no choice but to work together to push the tomb door open.

The moment the door of the tomb was pushed open, a disgusting smell of fish came to my face, and I quickly reminded everyone to hold their breath.

This tomb door has been closed for I don't know how many years, and the air behind the tomb door may be highly toxic, and I don't know what the consequences will be if you inhale it rashly.

Strangely enough, there was a cool breeze along with the fishy smell, and there seemed to be a vent in the space behind the tomb door.

"Everybody be careful." I reminded everyone and walked in first.

At the last second before entering the tomb gate, I glanced back at Village Chief Yao and saw that he was standing honestly in place, without the slightest intention of escaping, which was a lot more reassuring.

After entering the tomb gate, I found that this was a natural cave, about the same size as the stalactite cave where we met the corpse, and there were no traces of artificial excavation.

At the very top of the cavern there was a cavity about a foot square, and the cool breeze I had just felt was obviously blowing in from here.

As far as the eye could see, there was a dazzling golden sunlight shining straight down at the entrance of the cave, which happened to shine on a small tree that was a few feet high

I was very surprised to see this scene, there was a small sapling more than a foot high in this environment, which should be a seed that fell from the opening at the top of the cave, which also proves that the cave collapsed for a very long time, at most about a year.

Once I entered the cave, I kept looking around, but all I saw was an empty scene.

Originally, I thought that after entering the cave, we would see countless poisonous snakes, and we could always see one or two at the worst, but after we entered the cave, we didn't see a single snake, and there were many snakes shed from the ground.

"What's the matter, where have all the snakes in the cave gone?" I was a little skeptical, it was all too unusual.

The others obviously felt extraordinary, and the atmosphere became a little solemn.

Judging from the countless snake moults on the ground, Village Chief Yao did not lie to us.

There are indeed snakes in the cave, and there are quite a few of them, but it is somewhat unexplained why none of them appeared.

"These snakes can't be moving, right? Otherwise, you're hungry and go out to find something to eat. Xiao Yue said.

"It's unlikely, most snakes forage at night, and even if they do, they can't even leave a snake behind, it's a bit unreasonable." Hearing this, Li Huiyan said.

"I'll go to the front to explore the way first, and you guys pay attention to the surroundings, maybe there will be poisonous snakes hiding in the shadows to sneak up on people." The situation in the cave was so abnormal, I thought about it, and said to everyone.

"I'll go with you." Li Huiyan said, with an extremely resolute attitude.

In the end, Li Huiyan and I went to the front to explore the way, and the Yang brothers and sisters and Xiao Yue stayed where they were and waited for news.

Li Huiyan and I walked side by side, and every step was taken carefully. Until we are sure that there are any poisonous snakes in this cave, we dare not speak out, for fear that we will alarm the cold-blooded killers in the shadows.

"I'm responsible for keeping an eye on the poisonous snakes around me, and you're responsible for finding Qin Dong and the three of them." I whispered to Li Huiyan.

Li Huiyan snorted, obviously understanding what I meant.

If we can find Qin Dong and them without alarming the snakes in the cave, it will naturally be a good thing, otherwise, as Village Chief Yao said, there are tens of thousands of poisonous snakes in this Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to get out when we are surrounded by then.

All the way forward, the snakes on the ground molted more and more, and the two of us had almost no place to put our feet, so we had to step on the snakes that had been laid out in countless layers, and each step was like stepping on a soft sponge.

I was secretly amazed that there were so many snakes on the ground, and if they were all sold, how much would they have to be sold?

Soon after, I saw hundreds of snake eggs in small potholes and crevices, many of which had been broken, but there was still not a single small snake in sight. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
