Chapter 30, The River
At this time, Ahri's body, which was walking in front, paused, slowed down, I was strange, so I leaned over and walked to Ahri's side, the light shone on, and it turned out that a door appeared on the wall in front of me. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was a stone gate, the stone gate was not big, it was bare, and there was no decoration, to be precise, it was like a stone slab, leaning against the wall. It can be seen that this is not an ordinary slate, it should have a bit of jade texture, and it feels cool and silky to the touch, with a slight refreshing feeling.
Ahri looked at me, and I looked at her, and then I went over and knocked on the stone door, and it was empty, and I said, "Uh, do you want to open it and see." ”
Ahri nodded in agreement.
I took out my pickaxe and knocked it on the slate, but it didn't feel very thick, so I wanted to see if I could get it open without explosives. Thinking about it, I knocked it twice harder, but I didn't move. Well, I moved the pickaxe to the next grave brick again, and wanted to try the next detonator next to it.
As soon as I wanted to make a pit, there was a messy sound from the opposite side of the slate, and I subconsciously pushed two steps back.
Immediately after, there were several tapping sounds on the back of the slate, exactly the same as the sound I had just struck with a pickaxe. Ahri and I looked at each other, showing a blank and confused expression.
Ahri still seemed relatively calm and didn't make any movements, and I made a half-squat pose.
My first reaction was that if it was the same percussion sound as mine, it would probably be a human, not a youkai or something.
What we have to do now is to wait, and then we only listen, and the sound over there, after a few sounds, stops, and there are no other sounds in between.
Then there was a muffled sound, like the low muffled sound of something soft hitting a slate, a "poof", followed by another sound.
With this sound, the whole stone door in front of me fell down in response, the kind that fell from the inside out.
After that, a familiar voice came from the deafness: "His grandmother, bah, it's so suspenseful that she choked me to death, it's not a good thing to take a bath in a place like this." ”
Depend on! It turned out to be the old horse and Xiaofeng, I scolded the mother, went over to say hello, went over to see, the place where the old horse came out, is a downward passage, not too wide, but the passage of a person is not a big problem, it is a square hole.
I pulled Lao Ma and Xiaofeng out, their bodies were soaked, and they didn't stare at this coldly, as if they didn't know how much physical work they had done, and it turned out to be all water.
As soon as the old horse came out, he saw Ahri behind me with a cold eye, and said angrily, "Yo, who am I supposed to be, Miss Ahri, don't come unharmed." ”
Ahri didn't reply, and after the old horse finished speaking, it was like I cast an inquiring look, and I laughed twice and said, "Well, I met her not far behind, and her leg was injured at that time. ”
I briefly told him how he met Ahri, and after listening to me, I could see that the old horse's eyes shot a displeased (green light) may mean to say, what are you saving her for, just let him die there, have you forgotten how she did to us when she was trapped?
I replied to Lao Ma with a wry smile and said, alas, no matter what people say, she is also a girl, forget it, don't be so careful.
Seeing my expression, the old horse pulled me aside and asked in a low voice, "Damn, don't you like this, uh?" ”
I hurriedly shook off the old horse's hand, and replied in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about, it's nothing." ”
The old horse let out an "oh", not knowing what it meant, and then I asked again, "What's the matter with your water?"
Lao Ma pouted and said, "Hey, don't mention it, Lao Tzu is just, I just happened to run into a coffin with a mechanism, it's really unlucky, drink cold water and stuff my teeth." However, thankfully, there is a river under the mechanism, it seems, it is a natural underground river, it feels like the mechanism is underneath, it should have been a pit, and then it was washed down by the river of the underground river, the water level is waist-deep, and then it didn't take long for Xiaofeng to fall down, at first I thought that you would also fall down, and then the two of us waited for a long time, and I didn't see your shadow, and the two of us couldn't go up, and then we had to go downstream in the direction of the water flow, and we walked like this, I don't know how long I walked, I came across a fork, and I came to another river, and the reason why I said another river was because this river seemed to be dug out by hand, it was very neat, and we didn't pick a direction, so we walked straight, and then we saw a square hole here, so we stopped and looked, and then, I heard the sound of someone knocking on the stone slab, and I guessed that someone might have passed on it, no, I came up and kicked the stone slab. ”
Lao Ma said, Xiao Feng added next to him, and after listening to me, he nodded, "So, under this square hole, there should be a moat,"
Lao Ma also nodded, "I feel that looking for the entrance to the dungeon from the moat should be much closer, do you feel it?" ”
At this time, Ahri cleared his throat and said in a delicate voice, "Why, you just touched the coffin." ”
I nodded, "Not only did I touch the coffin, but I also opened one." Hey, I didn't tell you just now, it's just a mass grave over there. ”
Ahri's eyes widened, "Oh, what kind of coffin, what's inside." ”
At this time, I just wanted to talk about the Dinghaizhu and the ring in the coffin, and the old horse gave me a look, meaning that I should not say it. I don't know if I'm afraid that Ahri will share his dirt, but I will look back consciously, indicating that I know.
I directly skipped over the Ming vessel and shook my head, "Well, it may be a Nanmu coffin, but there is no thing, the corpse inside, the corpse is fake, and a female ghost in red crawled out, we were scared a lot, and then we ran away." ”
After hearing this, Ahri frowned slightly, thoughtfully, and did not speak.
As we were talking, the old horse came over to interrupt: "I said, let's not talk nonsense, since the soldiers are in one place, let's go down together, and find the underground palace along the moat, damn it, it's still like the imperial tomb, and the moat." ”
I said, "Well, the horse is right, let's get the mission done first, I'm done and get out, I've had enough of this place." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Feng took the lead in getting into the square hole, and then I helped Ahri and sent her down, and then me, the old horse, was behind the mat.
The square hole is not deep, there is a drop of a few meters, the following is the cold river water, a into the water, the first feeling is the root of the tooth tight, well, as the old horse said, the river is waist deep, although the water is not deep, but it is quite wide, and it can be seven or eight meters wide.
The river flows forward slowly, the lights shine on, the water is quite clear, and from time to time there are some things that I don't know if it's a small fish and gently hit the calf, it feels like it should be a light rain, and I don't care too much.
It seems that it has always been living water, and at the beginning of this design, it should be a semi-natural kind, connected to the underground river, which is also a test of the designer's own understanding of astronomy and geography, and it can be regarded as a big deal.
Xiaofeng said, "Hey, my brother, let's just go along the water?" ”
The old horse said, "Well, yes, go downstream first, there must be an entrance to the underground palace, this mausoleum is built down, the more we go down, the closer we are to the underground palace." Give me two (fish balls) to put in the highlights, maybe there will be an entrance nearby. ”
Anyway, the four of us followed the slowly flowing river into the deep river.
