Chapter 68: Cycles

Welcome to Guanshu Network:

When Mochizuki and his entourage went down to the bottom of the ancient well, they were also shocked by the ancient ruins excavated by this population, and Zhuo Laohan didn't expect that the water well that he had eaten for so many years would look like this, but he was afraid that when he wanted to see those coffins and bones, how would he feel?

When they were assembled, they set off on the road that Cha Wenbin had walked, as long as they turned that corner, they would be extremely shocked!

Mochizuki was overjoyed, he thought that he had finally taken a different path from his ancestors, and was complacent about his decision, and with a wave of his hand, a pair of centaurs drove forward, but they did not know that what was waiting for them was tens of thousands of corpse silkworms that had lost their leader and were waiting for revenge......

Cha Wenbin naturally didn't know that he had made a pioneer for others, and the raft carried five people along the slow flow of water to continue retrograde, and the space of this tributary cave was not smaller than the main stream outside.

Along the way, the vigilant heart never dared to relax half a step, this seemingly calm underground cave, as if full of unknown dangers all the time, the seven-star sword in his hand was always tightly pinched, Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong were rowing the raft at any time, and they were also staring closely at the water, God knows if there will be a big bug or a giant toad here.

At this time, half an hour had passed since they entered the tributary on the left, and at the current speed of progress, they had only walked five miles, and the darkness that could not be seen at a glance made people continue to wave the oars weakly, and suddenly the spotlights that had been used as pilot lighting suddenly dispersed, and a large space appeared in front of them.

Cha Wenbin immediately shouted: "Be careful! It's a bit unusual in front! ”

Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong each supported the raft with sticks to prevent it from moving with the river, while Cha Wenbin stood at the front and carefully observed the situation in front of him with a spotlight: it was a large pool, and the upstream water had hit it to form a whirlpool, and as soon as they passed the current hole, they would enter the water.

In the center of the whirlpool, there was something that attracted Cha Wenbin, a large wood-shaped thing kept turning in circles with the flow of water, fortunately, the speed was not very fast, Cha Wenbin took a closer look, it was actually a coffin!

How can there be a coffin here? And it's a wooden? Because I know that this place has been uninhabited for a long time, even if the ordinary wooden coffin is washed down from the upstream, I am afraid that it will have rotted long ago, except for the precious golden silk nanmu, no other wood can be soaked in water for thousands of years.

Cha Wenbin took out a horizontal ruler from his arms, which he often carries when looking at feng shui on weekdays, which can measure the slope and put it on the raft on the spot.

There was a bubble in the middle of the level, and it moved downward, which proved that they were going all the way up and down, and the slope was not low. Cha Wenbin estimated the distance they had traveled from the underground to the present, and judging from this slope, it is likely that their position is much higher than the surface elevation of the village.

Chaozi propped up the raft and asked, "Brother Wenbin?" What did you find? ”

Cha Wenbin looked at the coffin that was spinning in circles, as if he wanted to pass through here, he had to bypass it, and now it was impossible to go back, since he had chosen this path, he had to follow it.

"It's nothing, it's just a coffin, and when we cross it later, stay away from it."

The waterhole is a circle, and the surrounding stone walls are far away, and the lights sweep past, but it is really difficult to see the situation. However, this brother is a bold person, and has already experienced the test of life and death, Cha Wenbin made a gesture to move forward, and the two of them each put the oars in their hands towards the stone wall, and the raft slowly entered the waterhole.

When they first entered, the raft was moving along the periphery according to Cha Wenbin's previous instructions, and under the influence of the rotation of the current, Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong struggled to adjust the direction with wooden sticks and oars, and carefully attached to the stone wall.

Because the hydrology here is a whirlpool, at this point, they are going downstream, and all the sticks can change is to prevent the raft from hitting the rock wall.

Cha Wenbin carefully probed this waterhole, the space here is the size of a football field, the circle is very regular, and there is nothing strange to see.

Halfway through the march, Zhuo Xiong exclaimed, "Look, there's a coffin over there?" ”

Sure enough, there was a coffin spinning in place along the spot where Zhuo Xiong's light shone. Cha Wenbin was very surprised, why didn't he find out that there was a coffin before?

He asked Chaozi to stabilize the raft, stood on the raft and carefully studied the two coffins, and looked at it for a while, so it was.

The two coffins are almost the same in terms of shape, size and material, one coffin is facing the entrance they came into, and the other is facing the other end of the exit, the two coffins are on the same straight line, so he looked from the hole, the back coffin was blocked by the front one, and the light was seriously insufficient to join, so the back one was leaked.

From the point of view of distance, the two points of the two coffins are not far from their respective exit positions, if a horizontal line is drawn in the center of this waterhole and the straight line between the two points is perpendicular, and the circle of the whole waterhole is divided into two and a half moons, then the two coffins are just located at the midpoint of their respective radius.

Cha Wenbin immediately had a bad premonition in his heart, urging Chaozi to hurry up and drive the raft out of this water. In this eerie space, two coffins appear out of thin air and are dangling in front of your eyes, and whoever you change will feel infiltrated.

Fortunately, they have seen a lot of coffins in this ghost place these days, and their legs are not so weak that they are frightened, Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong wave the oars in their hands one after the other, and the raft sails towards the opposite exit at maximum speed.

Seeing that it was less than a meter away from the exit, and the two coffins were also thrown behind him, Cha Wenbin's heart that mentioned his throat was half gone, as long as he took one step further, he only needed one step to leave here.

Many times this backfires, when you are about to realize your idea and make a 180-degree turn, but this turn is enough for the three of them to remember for a lifetime.

When Cha Wenbin found that Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong had been waving the oars for half a year, the raft not only did not move forward, but went backwards again, his face began to turn slightly pale, and the distance from them was only twenty meters away was the coffin.

Chaozi had exhausted all his strength in this cold underground river, rowing desperately the oars, and he also felt that the position he was in now was not advancing but retreating, and there was a tendency to get farther and farther away from that opening, so he suddenly got up and shouted: "Blind, do you want to work harder?" ”

Zhuo Xiong is also suffering now, he can't say anything, his arms have been waved so much that he can't lift it, the raft is still retreating, and he said while paddling the wooden stick in his hand: "I've worked hard to row here, and it seems that it's still not funny!" Brother Wen Bin, what do you say is going on? ”

Cha Wenbin, he was not idle at this time, he was also holding a big wooden stick in his hand and pounding in the water, seeing that this raft just couldn't get out, he was also anxious, so he picked up a wooden stick and joined the rowing process, panting while saying: "The hydrology here is more complex than we imagined, and if you work harder, you just need to get out of this hole." After saying that, he continued to wave......

When half an hour had passed, the three men were already exhausted and collapsed on the raft, and all that was left was the breath coming out of their mouths. The raft couldn't help but not take half a step forward, but retreated ten meters away. It's not that they want to give up, it's that they really don't have the strength right now.

Cha Wenbin gasped and said, "Let's rest for a while, just play a few circles here, and then come back when we have enough strength." ”

The raft floated along the direction of the water that seemed to be like a coffin, but it was some distance away, although Cha Wenbin had no strength, his eyes were still good, and he had been paying attention to the movement of the raft.

The raft carried five people in the direction of the water, unbelievably arced outward, bypassing the coffin, and when it reached the position of the coffin behind him, it changed direction again, and then turned inward and crossed an arc, bypassing the coffin they saw, and returning to the original point!

When Chaozi and Zhuoxiong found out that they were back again, they had already struggled to sit up from the raft, what was going on, floating in a circle and coming back?

What really shocked Cha Wenbin was not that he had returned to the far point, but that the raft was along the line linking the coffins in the middle, with an "S" shaped movement trajectory, cleverly bypassing the two coffins before returning to the far point. This is definitely beyond common sense!
