I told him to wait for me on the shore for a while, and then I went into the water and swam to the middle of the pool to take the steel helmet of the beam ashore.

The last time I was in a waterhole, I was so nervous that I didn't notice anything unusual about the water. But this time I went into the water, I obviously felt that there was no Qi field in this pool of water.

The word Qi field can sometimes be written as aura, and the pronunciation of the two is the same. The so-called Qi is probably a kind of energy that everything in the world will have, and when I can enter the realm of thinking and refining the mental power from it, as long as it is not a Qi field that is weak to a certain level, I can perceive it.

In the eyes of others, when I swam in it, there were slight waves on the water, but for me, this pool of water was extremely calm, not to mention the waves, not even a trace of ripples, it was so quiet as if it was dead.

Backwater!

I filled the steel helmet of the beam with water, and tried to shake it again, it is worthy of a military product, the whole steel helmet is tightly fitted, even between the screw and the helmet plate, there is no water leakage at all.

Liang Houzai asked me, "What are you doing here?" ”

His brain usually spins faster than mine, but now, Liang Houzai's thinking ability is obviously limited by tension. I explained to him, "It's too dark in the tunnel, so use this water as a light source." ”

After saying that, I walked towards the tunnel, and Liang Houzai hesitated, but still followed.

When I came to the entrance of the tunnel, I could clearly feel that the wind was mixed with a large amount of corpse qi, it was a very strong corpse qi, they invaded my skin with the wind, and soon rushed into my internal organs, and the black water corpse coffin on my back also stimulated the familiar cold qi at this time, and the cold air quickly spread all over my body, and in the blink of an eye, those corpse qi were forced out.

If a newly deceased corpse is placed on this outlet, no more than five minutes, a corpse transformation will inevitably occur, but I can't tell what will happen to the living when they are affected by these corpse qi.

I glanced back at Liang Houzai, who was standing behind me, frowning and staring into the depths of the tunnel.

When he followed me closely, the black water corpse coffin on my back could indeed protect him, but once he was more than a meter away from me, I couldn't protect him.

I thought for a while before I said to Liang Houzai, "How many corpse talismans do you still have?" ”

Liang Houzai was stunned for a moment and responded to me: "More than twenty, what's wrong?" ”

More than twenty? And so much more!

I said to him, "That's easy, you take out a few talismans and stick them on your body to block the corpse qi." ”

Liang Houzai nodded knowingly, and took out a dozen wet spirit talismans from his pocket, but this dozen talismans were not corpse suppression talismans, but evil talismans.

I was worried that Liang Houzai was nervous and took it wrong, and reminded him: "This is an evil charm." ”

Liang Houzai nodded at me: "Well, the corpse talisman can't be pasted on the body, let's use this, the evil talisman can also dispel corpse qi, and the effect is no worse than the corpse talisman." ”

These Chenzhou talismans are all painted by Liang Houzai with special cinnabar, and they will not fade even if they are stained with water, but the power will be slightly worse after being soaked in water.

Because those spirit runes were all glued together, Liang Houzai was heavy at first, and accidentally tore two of them, so he had no choice but to throw them on the ground. After that, he was a little more careful, and put three evil charms on his throat and on both sides of his chest, before nodding to me and saying okay.

I then carefully entered the tunnel with a steel helmet filled with water.

The light of water in the steel helmet can only illuminate a small area around it. The inside of the tunnel is very wide, but the height is only about three meters, and by the light on the steel helmet, I can see that there are many fist-sized grooves at the top of the tunnel, some of the grooves are empty, and some of the grooves are inlaid with a kind of glass-like balls, because the water itself is blue, and those balls are also reflected in bright blue, and their original color should be pure white like white marble.

From the outside, it seemed to be some white stone balls, but there was a strong corpse smell and stench on them.

As we got deeper, the smell of corpses became stronger and stronger, and I could only pinch my nose with one free hand, and I saw Liang Houzai also put up the collar of his clothes, blocking his nostrils.

It's so stinky, the corpse smell is definitely one of the smelliest smells in the world.

After walking a short distance, a large number of stone stalactites appeared in front of them, all of which rose from the ground, and the sharpest tops of the stalactites all pointed to the top of the tunnel.

Liang Houzai and I could only move forward with difficulty in the gap between the stone stalactites, the stalactites became more and more tightly arranged, and the gap became smaller and smaller, and later, Liang Houzai and I were almost slowly squeezing forward.

At first, I thought it was moss or something, but when I rubbed over the surface of the stalactite, all the liquid stuck to me, and although there was no bad smell on it, I was still nauseous in my heart.

The stalactites first became denser, then thinned out, and in the distance of the tunnel, there was a little light.

I'm not stupid enough to think that it is the sunlight or moonlight outside, since entering the tunnel, Liang Houzai and I have walked a distance of about 100 meters at most, and it is absolutely impossible to get out of the ground.

Da-da-da-

Just as I was still thinking about whether to continue walking, I suddenly heard a strange sound like dripping water and footsteps.

Liang Houzai and I turned to look at the same time, but behind us we couldn't see anything except those stone stalactites, which were pure darkness.

The two of us were most worried about someone or something behind us. It's full of stalactites, and the space is cramped, so if you run into trouble...... That's a real problem.

At that moment, I heard another sound in my ears, the tunnel was empty, and the real sound appeared with a continuous echo, so that I could not tell where the source of the sound was.

It just felt as if there were countless insects crawling at my feet.

The sound grew louder and denser, and I could vaguely tell that it was on my left.

I cautiously held up my steel helmet and looked to the left, only to notice a black opening in the wall to the left of my tunnel.

Just as I raised my helmet, the sound suddenly stopped, but it only stopped for a moment, and then it rang out more violently.

The sound made my scalp tingle, and Liang Houzai quickly pulled me up and walked in the direction where the light came from, and when we left the cave for some distance, the sound stopped again, and it didn't appear again until we walked out of the end of the tunnel.

Beyond the tunnel, there was another glowing pool, and on the other side of the pool, there was a dark opening. It's just that instead of a towering rock wall, the waterhole here is a heavy stone slab supported by four stalactites, each of which is unusually thick and about four or five meters high.

The irregular shape of the slab, combined with the fact that it is densely covered with holes the thickness of wrists, looks like a giant beehive.

Now there are only two paths in front of me and Liang Houzai, either forward or backward. If we had gone forward, we would have to go into the water and swim from the pool to the other side, but when I looked at the stone slabs in the pool, I always thought that something would come out of those holes. But if we go back, it's a dead end.

I glanced at Liang Houzai, who seemed to have recovered from the horror of falling from a height, and was now frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he said to me, "Brother Dao, I think there is something wrong with these pools. ”

I also knew that there was a problem with these pools, or I also knew that there was a problem with the pools, but I still asked Liang Houzai: "What is the problem?" ”

I tried to get him to say a few more words, which might ease his nerves.

But Liang Houzai's answer was completely beyond my expectations, and he said to me: "Brother Dao, look carefully, this waterhole is exactly the same shape as the one we met before, and I remember that there were three stone stalactites that crossed together on the left side of the waterhole before, and there are also them here." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the left side of the waterhole, and I looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, I saw three slender stalactites arranged together in a cross-section, and I also remember that on the left side of the waterhole we encountered before, there were indeed three stone stalactites like this.

It's just that the top of the waterhole is missing such a honeycomb slate.

At this time, the tunnel behind us suddenly remembered the sound of "Xi Xi Suo", which was very small at first, but after only a few seconds, the sound suddenly increased, and when the sound increased to a certain extent, it was like countless fingers sliding on a huge glass mirror.

When the sound entered my ears, it first pierced the depths of my head, and then a feeling of extreme discomfort spread throughout my body. It was like a myriad of small insects gnawing at my bones, and the intense itching and the paralyzing sensation of electric shock sealed all my senses almost instantly.

Liang Houzai opened his mouth at me, and I couldn't hear what he was saying, only to see him plunging headlong into the pool.

The splash he made when he entered the water hit me in the face, which made me sober up a little, and I didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately jumped into the water, and those dead pools of water poured into my ears, instantly blocking out those sounds, and I felt a sense of relief all over my body.

But before I could rejoice, there was a sudden series of shocks above the pool, and when I looked up, I saw that the stone slab above the pool shook violently twice, and then fell.
