Chapter 2: The Vanishing Skeleton
Cold sweat began to break out on my forehead. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info wrote in the diary several times that corpses would walk on their own. But I didn't say that skeletons can walk! Could it be that the white bone really walked to the entrance of the cave by himself just now, and then climbed up and handed us the diary? This skeleton is really well-intentioned! But don't think you're done and leave while we're reading our diaries! It's going to scare people to death!
"Why did this skeleton run away on its own?" Fat Bao's face was also not good-looking, "I haven't heard that skeletons can also cheat corpses!" Could it really be that the white bone spirit can't be reincarnated? ā
"Whether it's a corpse or the reincarnation of a white bone spirit, at least it's not here to harm us!" I said, "Otherwise, we would have been attacked by it while we were looking at the diary!" ā
"Maybe it just walked away and will be back later!" Fei Bao said.
"Don't!" Hotaru cowered down to me in fear and looked around.
"Fat Bao, you really can't spit out ivory! Shut it up for me! ā
"Yes! Be! You stay here, I'll go and see! Fat Bao said and took out his fighting saber and walked slowly over with a torch. I used a mixing flashlight to light him in the back.
It was so quiet that only the sound of his footsteps remained, and the footsteps at this time seemed to be amplified several times, and Fat Bao seemed to be a giant, and the pace of walking could shake the ground. With every step he took, my heart beat violently.
I couldn't help but think to myself: What about skeletons? What about skeletons? What about skeletons? Did you really run away on your own? But the skeleton almost fell apart when it fell from above, can it still walk? No, if it's really a corpse, even dead corpses can walk, and it's not surprising that scattered skeletons can walk!
My heart was flustered. At this time, Fat Bao had already walked to the wall at the end. We just slipped down from a hole in the wall. Fat Bao searched carefully with a torch and said, "There really isn't, I haven't seen that skeleton nearby!" Hell yes! ā
Hotaru and I then walked briskly over.
"It's weird!" Fei Bao said.
"What's weird?" I asked.
"You said that skeletons and corpses are already a very bizarre thing! But the corpse at the entrance of the cave can't be described as weird with a talk about the sky and night! Fei Bao said.
"What cave swindler? Fat Bao, what nonsense are you talking about? I asked.
"Come and see for yourself!" Fat Treasure pointed to the wall and said, "This is obviously the hole we just fell from, but this is a wall now!" Not even a finger-sized hole! Does that hole have its own feet? ā
I walked over to the wall, and indeed, it was the same place where we had fallen, but now it was a whole wall. I tapped my hand on the wall a few times and found it solid. Prove that it was indeed a wall, and not that the hole was blocked by the closure of the mechanism.
"The little pile of dirt that was under the entrance of the cave just now is gone!" Hotaru said.
"Evil like this?" Fei Bao said.
I suddenly had an idea and said, "I know why!" ā
"What is the reason?" Fei Bao asked.
"The Tai Chi Senluo formation is moving!" I said, "The skeletons, the holes, and the mounds are gone. Prove that we are no longer where we were. It is said in the diary that Tai Chi Senluo will exercise every ten minutes! We're in the formation right now, so we're in motion all the time! ā
"Huh? The place has changed, how do we go back the way we came? Fei Bao said.
I touched my chin and thought as I said, "This is bad! The place has changed, we don't have any metaphysical masters here, and there is no way to crack the Tai Chi Senluo formation! ā
"So what are we going to do?" Fei Bao said.
I smiled bitterly and said, "I guess you have to ask Nikolai this question?" Chernyshevsky. ā
"Who is this man?" Fei Bao said.
"Famous Russian writer of modern times!" Hotaru said.
"I only know two Russians!" Fei Bao said, "One Lenin, one Marx!" ā
"You're a pig!" I said, "Marx is German!" ā
"Huh? What do I remember about Marxism-Leninism in junior high school, didn't it come from Russia? ā
"That's Lenin first learned Marxism, then mixed Marxism-Leninism and then spread it to China, idiot!"
"Brother Jinke, why do you want to ask a person who has already died?" Hotaru asked.
"Because he wrote a book called 'What to Do'!" I looked at Hotaru bitterly.
"You're still in the mood for a joke at this time!" Hotaru said.
"That is, the young master who thinks he is very smart doesn't know what to do, right!" Fat Bao said sarcastically, "I thought you were amazing!" Phew! ā
"Shut up!" I didn't bother to pay attention to Fat Bao, I was looking around with a flashlight to find a way out," the diary said, and the place where we came in was probably just an emergency escape. The real entrance should be somewhere else. Now we can only continue along the route of the archaeological team, so that we can also find the exit! But there are many dangers ahead, and I am worried about ......"
I looked at Hotaru, her foot was injured from being bitten by a blood bat. There were also a lot of abrasions on my arms, and I was really worried that something would happen if we continued along the path of the archaeological team. And among the three, Hotaru, who lacks the most defense and combat power, is the most vulnerable!
"What are you worried about?" Hotaru asked.
"Do you need to ask about this?" Fat Bao glanced at me and said disdainfully, "He's worried about ......"
"Fat Baby!" My thoughts were seen at a glance by Fat Bao. He was about to speak, but I stopped him. I don't want Hotaru to know that it's because of her existence that my plans are timid. In this dark and oppressive environment, I don't want to increase her psychological burden, "I'm worried that there will be danger ahead!" ā
"Since we have no way back, we can only keep going!" Hotaru said.
"Hmmm! There's no way around it! I said.
"Sooner or later, you'll be pretended to be forced to death!" Fei Bao said.
I ignored Fei Bao and said, "The question now is how to go, because there are many mechanisms in the formation, and you can't walk around." ā
"There it is!" Hotaru said, "Didn't the diary say that after Ah Chun and Ah Sen walked like corpses, Captain Cao and his party didn't catch up with them, but they were worried that they weren't dead and left marks along the way?" We can follow the mark! ā
"It's not going to work!" I said, "If you follow the mark, you can get closer to the birth gate, but you can't get to the birth gate." Because it is written in the diary that after Captain Cao and his party returned to the army, they touched the two Yi killings, and then the flood came. They can still make markers as they escape, but when the water is full, they won't be able to swim and will certainly not have time to mark. And the trickiest thing is that this organ will move, and the door of life will become the door of death, and the door of death will become the door of life. ā
"Looks like we're really going to ask the driver of the Nikolai!" Fei Bao said.
"Is it Nikolai? Chernyshevsky! Hotaru said.
"Isn't that what I said?" Fei Bao said.
"It's different, okay!" Hotaru said.
I continued to dig deep into the existing clues, and I had to make sure to find a relatively safe way out. Just as I was thinking about it, I noticed that there was something unnatural about the part of the pillar not far away. I kept my flashlight shining there. However, because there is a layer of mist around it, it is difficult to see clearly. I only saw a few small black holes in the pillars, and I felt that they were not naturally formed.
"Brother Jinke, what's wrong?" Hotaru asked.
"I think I can't move because I think of a lot of brain cell death?" Fei Bao said.
I looked motionlessly at the pillar not far in front of me and said, "The little hole in the pillar is strange!" ā
Fat Bao and Hotaru looked over together.
"There's something up there!" Fat Bao said, "Go and see!" ā
