As night approached, the entire surface of the lake fell into darkness. I took a flashlight and shone it over: "What is this?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Liang Ruoyi grabbed my shoulder: "That's a person!" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly adjusted the weak light of the flashlight to a strong light, and this time I could see it clearly: it was indeed a dark person floating on the quiet lake.

Liang Ruoyi hurriedly threw the hook lock that he hadn't had time to put away, successfully hooked it, and dragged it towards us.

Who will it be? Seventh Master? Cloth bag monk? Or an old clam or a toad?! My heart is pounding, although I don't have a deep friendship with this group of people, but after being born and dying together several times, at least I don't want anyone to leave like Mazi!

After a few seconds, I saw that the man who was less than half a foot away from me was not one of our people, but another of the Sun Hu and Sun Bao brothers.

This man was better than his brother, who had been eaten half by the hooked snake, and he, who had only been pierced in the chest by something, and whose blood had dried up......

"!" I suddenly felt some pain and cursed.

Liang Ruoyi retracted the hook lock and let the body float away.

I don't know how many people's bodies are buried in this lake. The moment I saw the corpse of Sun Hu and Sun Leopard, I felt that my mind was blank. I even began to doubt my own life and wondered why I was doing all this in this place. It's not the life I want at all!

Su Xiao has been with me for seven years, and it has been more than half a year since I graduated, and the life I want is to be able to be an ordinary person, be with the people I love, have an ordinary job, be fed and clothed, and be happy! I remember a few months ago, I said to Mazi on the edge of the Jing River: My wife and children are hot on the kang, which is the life I want.

But now?! I can't do anything, every time Su Xiao wants to mention marriage, she wants to talk and stop, because she knows me too well, she knows that I will never leave her, and she hopes that one day, I can happily marry her into the door.

At this time, I deeply felt how well Xu Zeming knew me, and he asked me to spy on the seventh master and them, on the condition that I be given a decent job, a warm house, and an unforgettable wedding.

"Huh!" I laughed and covered my face, tears welling up from my fingers. Mazi is dead, Sun Hu and Sun Leopard are dead, these people also have their own dreams, but now, they will never have a chance to come true! I really want to abandon everything now and return to Su Xiao's side, and never be separated again!

"What's wrong with you?" Liang Ruoyi sat beside me and looked at me for a while, but couldn't help but ask.

These actions were extremely dangerous, but this was the first time I cried, not for danger, but for fear, afraid that I would never achieve that simple wish.

"It's fine!" I wiped a handful of tears from my eyes and smiled.

"Everybody has a period of time when they can't help themselves." For the first time, Liang Ruoyi's eyes showed a woman's tenderness: "It may be a few days, it may be a few months, or it may be a lifetime." I'm probably the one who's been out of my own for the rest of my life, and you might think I'm weak and won't resist. But you know what, I thought about it, I wanted to live my life free from all the confines around me, but I wasn't sure if I would have the chance to live the life I wanted when I got out. Not even a chance to turn back......"

"Understood." I nodded.

"A few years ago, during a military operation in Southeast Asia, I took it upon myself to go it alone, and although the final mission was completed ahead of schedule, in the process, there were circumstances beyond my control, and in the end, there were three times more casualties than expected. Do you know how I feel when I look at the corpses of my comrades lying on the ground? Liang Ruoyi's voice was very soft, as if she didn't want to recall the scene at that time.

"After that incident, I learned a truth." Liang Ruoyi stretched out his hand and put his hand on my shoulder: "The road of life can never go back, but I can look back and see the footprints left behind me." Therefore, every step you take, whether you succeed or fail, you must be down-to-earth, and never leave a footprint that you want to erase! ”

I patted Liang Ruoyi's hand on my shoulder: "Okay, let's get into the water, I'm fine." ”

"Hmm." Liang Ruoyi got up and packed up his things: "The depth of the lake is about twenty meters now, you have to calculate it yourself." ”

I nodded, and Liang Ruoyi had already replaced the hook lock of the rope with a buckle lock again, and tied the two of us together: "Okay, let's prepare!" ”

I put my backpack on my back, wrapped the flashlight around my wrist, took a deep breath, followed Liang Ruoyi's "poof", and entered the lake again.

The water is still very cold, and when I look at the water in the lake, I can see the ripples of raindrops falling on the lake, which is very dreamy.

Soon, we came to the bottom of the lake, and Liang Ruoyi waved her hand at me, and looked in the direction she was pointing, and saw a dark passage hidden behind the rocks.

I nodded at her, and the two swam in one after the other. The dark passage was almost a zhang wide, and the water was slow, first swimming down for a while, and then turning upward, I couldn't hold it back, and hurriedly kicked my feet and went upstream.

Finally, at the moment when I was about to be deflated, my head was exposed to the water, I was panting, wiping a handful of sweat from my face, and followed Liang Ruoyi to look around.

"This isn't the secret passage I was here this morning!" Liang Ruoyi looked at it and said.

I answered, and found that I was now in a small waterhole of less than ten square meters, surrounded by strange rocks, stone walls on three sides, and there was only one way to go.

"Yongdao?!" I was stunned for a moment, pointed to the road and said, "It was dug out by someone, like a road!" ”

There is a road, at least it means that we have found the right direction.

Liang Ruoyi nodded, swam over first, and climbed out of the water. I climbed up after me, gasped for breath and asked, "Shall we rest, or shall we continue walking?" ”

"If we can't find the target, we need to at least enter one or two more dark passages, and there may not be enough time." Liang Ruoyi glanced at the time: "It's seven o'clock in the evening, it's not too late, let's go and have a look first!" ”

"Okay." I stood up and cleaned up because I had a wetsuit on the outside and the clothes on the inside weren't wet. Packing up and stopping, we headed for the road.

The moment I walked into the corridor, I hurriedly turned around and covered Liang Ruoyi's eyes: "It's not good, the walls are full of shaman statues!" ”

"Look, is there a problem?" Liang Ruoyi is very calm.

I was stunned for a moment, slowly opened my closed eyes and looked over, and it turned out to be fine!

"If it's okay, please let me go, you haven't washed your hands in days!" Liang Ruoyi said angrily.

I hurriedly withdrew my hand and muttered, "How can this be? Haven't you been cursed? ”

"I saw it when I first came out of the pool, and it's fine." Liang Ruoyi said and walked into the dark corridor.

At this time, I was no longer able to use the three-dimensional space in my mind to construct the structure of this Chengling hanging coffin, first, I had lost my sense of direction, and second, it was really a bit complicated.

The road is about half a zhang wide, one zhang high, all sides are made of bluestone, and countless shaman statues are carved on the wall, and the demeanor is different, none of them are the same.

"Why does Yuwentai believe in shamanic gods so much?" I asked as I walked.

"Shamanism itself is a very mysterious sect." Liang Ruoyi replied softly: "Even now, there is no conclusion as to where it originated. The shaman god, to a certain extent, can directly call him a 'sorcerer', the Gu Xianbei tribe, should have been extremely convinced of this religion at the time of origin, as for whether Yuwentai belongs to the Gu Xianbei or other races, it is difficult to make a conclusion now. Anyway, among the world's sects, shamanism is a very mysterious one. ”

As I listened, I shone my flashlight at the shaman statues around me, and suddenly I felt that these gods were a little weird, so I stopped: "Wait, why do I think there is something wrong with these gods......"
