Chapter 35: Deep in the Cave

Click......

Qin Tao inadvertently stepped on a dry branch.

He was startled, but when he saw by the light of his flashlight that it was just a dry branch, he let go and sighed.

He didn't notice that it was a very neat section of a branch, not formed by a natural fall. Moreover, there are no trees in this cave at all.

Qin Tao's attention was completely attracted by the smell of decay coming from inside. A strange curiosity rose in his heart, and he wondered what was in the depths of the cave.

The further you go, the brighter it gets in the cave.

This phenomenon is very abnormal, but Qin Tao doesn't seem to notice it at all, and still uses his mobile phone to continue lighting.

Of course, this also has to do with the fact that the light is not too bright.

Finally, he found that there were some lines on the walls of the cave on both sides, which looked like ancient murals.

However, if you look closely, you can't see what is being painted at all. He could only see that some of the lines were sparse and some were dense. And the dense part is not so much a line as a chaotic indentation, as if someone had deliberately carved a hole in the wall.

As his position deepened, the dents in the walls of the cave became more and more pronounced, and the dents became deeper and deeper.

Finally, he saw that on the walls of the cave on both sides, some small pavilions like shrines appeared.

No matter how sluggish he was, he realized that something was wrong.

These things can never be naturally formed.

His feet stopped.

And ahead, the smell of decay is getting stronger.

He looked at the "shrine" on the right.

"What's that?"

By the light, he saw that there seemed to be something black in the "shrine".

He walked towards the "shrine" and subconsciously swallowed.

When he walked to the "shrine", it became clear that it was a clump of hair.

How can there be hair here?

He felt a chill on his skin.

Determined, he withdrew his gaze, hesitated for a moment, and continued to walk deeper into the cave. This time, he's much slower.

When he walked to the next "shrine", he looked over again. And this time, there is a greater amount of hair inside.

Qin Tao felt that his scalp was a little numb, but he still continued to walk.

The "shrines" he saw next, each with a large amount of hair, and the deeper he went, the more hair he had.

Later, it was almost as if a head was embedded in the wall, revealing only the hair.

The fear in Qin Tao's heart became stronger and stronger, and he wanted to turn his head and escape several times, but for some reason, he continued to walk inside.

Although the surrounding light is getting brighter and brighter, it still does not reach the level of sunlight, and you can only vaguely see the surroundings.

Finally, he saw that the scene ahead of him had changed.

Instead of a deep, endless darkness, a wall appeared.

Coming to an end?

Qin Tao was surprised, but he didn't know whether it was joy or disappointment.

On the wall at the end, there was a smaller hole, slightly larger than a human head, and it was absolutely impossible for Qin Tao to get into it.

He walked over to the smaller hole and stopped.

Is there something in this hole?

He crouched down, tilted his head, and looked into the smaller hole.

It was pitch black inside, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

He moved his phone closer and used a flashlight to illuminate it.

Inside, it seems to be empty.

Impossible, right? Such a deep cave, such a mysterious and strange place, and there is nothing at the end?

Thinking so, he simply fell to his knees and tried to put his head lower in a lower direction.

It seemed to be just a small cave, nothing.

It's just that the smaller cave seems to be extremely deep. At least, from his position, there is no end in sight.

Qin Tao was a little unwilling, thinking that he had spent so much time and effort, and he had to gain something.

He lucked his luck and stuck his head into the small hole.

Suddenly, a face appeared in front of his eyes.

A face with malicious eyes and a mouth full of large bloody holes.

"Ahhh!!h

Qin Tao was suddenly frightened, and subconsciously wanted to retreat.

However, he was stuck in the hole and couldn't break free at all.

He watched as the terrifying face approached before his eyes.

He screamed incessantly, struggling desperately to free himself from the hole.

However, it was as if he had been welded to the wall of the cave, and he couldn't move a single bit.

He sensed that death was closing in on him.

Fear and despair consumed him completely.

After a few seconds, his eyes went black and he lost consciousness.

……

Shan Shilin shouted Qin Tao's name several times, but when he didn't get a response, he stopped shouting.

The intense uneasiness sent chills down his body.

Although he had just destroyed a guillotine, he didn't feel reassured.

What do you have to do to stay alive?

Shan Shilin's face was covered in cold sweat and he looked around in horror.

He suddenly remembered that just a while away, he vaguely saw that Cold Drop and Takegami Yukiwa had a conflict, and Takegami Yukino seemed to have taken out something a little weird.

Don't...... Is Cold Drop grabbing that thing? What is that?

Shan Shilin's mind came alive again, squinting at the people who had gathered.

Suddenly, his attention was attracted by Tang Minmei.

Tang Minmei's hand was holding something very similar to the strange puppet that Takekami had just taken out of the snow.

Compared with Yukino Takekami, Tang Minmei is obviously easier to deal with. Moreover, she was alone and did not get together with the others.

Shan Shilin suddenly became nervous and walked towards Tang Minmei.

Tang Minmei, on the other hand, was completely unaware, fiddling with the witch spirit puppet, her eyes lowered, and she didn't care about the surrounding situation.

Shan Shilin was still a little hesitant. However, at a certain moment, his eyes suddenly cold, and he seemed to have made up his mind.

He picked up a branch from the ground and walked straight to Tang Minmei.

"What's in your hand?"

Shan Shilin suddenly roared.

Tang Minmei was taken aback, looked up, and found that it was Shan Shilin, so she put her mind at ease again, and said lightly: "A puppet." ”

"What for?"

"I don't know."

"You're lying!"

Shan Shilin felt that Tang Minmei was mocking herself, and suddenly became angry and shouted loudly.

Suddenly, he frowned, raised the branch, and shouted, "Give it to me!" ”

Tang Minmei didn't answer, but looked directly at Shan Shilin, as if she had no fear.

Shan Shilin became more and more annoyed, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll say it one last time, give me this puppet!" ”

Tang Minmei still didn't speak, but tilted her head slightly, looking a little arrogant.

Shan Shilin was furious, and the branch that he held aloft was about to fall.

And at this moment, an angry shout came from not far away.

"Stop!"
