Chapter 12: Coercion in the Cave
The change of the old village chief was too sudden, and his demeanor was completely different from the past, so he only heard him say: "In the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was once a baronial country, called Xu Guo, and there was an extremely beautiful woman in the country, called Chen Kui, she was the daughter of the princes, it is rumored that everyone who sees her face, can only see the most beautiful appearance in their hearts, so the strange thing spread to the Qin State, when the Yellow River flooded, Qin Wugong thought that this woman could not be used by mortals, so he opened the first living sacrifice and dedicated it to the king of the Yellow River......."
We are not only curious that the Yellow River Niangniang is called Chen Kui, but also what makes us curious is that everyone he said that everyone sees a different appearance, if there is really such a woman in the world, it is simply too incredible, purely a bit of fantasy, more difficult than making people believe that there are ghosts in this world.
"Then what does the Yellow River Niangniang look like?" The old man stuck out his head and asked, "It can't be that no one knows." ”
The old village chief crooked his eyes wickedly, and pointed to the hole stiffly, "You'll know if you go down..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a hand suddenly looked at the back of his neck, and he fainted. Shen Laojiu withdrew his hand, looked at the unconscious old man on the ground, and asked others to help him to the river, and then said: "The old village chief is probably evil, and some words may not be true. ”
Saying that, he asked Ah Yu to take us to the edge of the hole, the cold wind came from inside, and I shivered when it was cold, and the old man seemed to realize that something was wrong, and whispered: "Lao Li, are they letting us go in and die?" Just listening to what the old guy said about the Yin River made me feel terrified, if the Yellow River Niangniang woke up from the coffin, then we wouldn't be able to live? ”
Just imagine, I'm a student who is almost twenty, standing in this kind of place and trying to say that I'm not afraid is fake, my legs trembled and said to Shen Laojiu, "What are you trying to do?" If you really want us to explore the way, there is Yin 1 water that can freeze people into ice cubes, and if you go down, you won't die? ”
Shen Laojiu threw the old egg's big bag over, "If you don't go, you have to go, unless you want to die here now." ”
Hou Jun quietly ripped off my clothes and said in a low voice: "Don't conflict with them, you will die at most in the cave, and if you do it with them now, you will definitely die, we can't outrun them in this mountain." ”
As we spoke, we had already ordered people to start laying stakes, and tie the rope and put it into the hole, so as to pave the way for entering the hole, Scar hesitated to speak, but after all, he didn't say it, and after tying up the rope, he spoke: "As long as you go down and there is no danger inside, we will follow down, and we will take care of each other when the time comes, so be more careful yourself." ”
The two of us first wrapped a layer of sheepskin around our waists and then tied a rope, and the other end was tied to a stake, and after doing everything, Shen Laojiu handed over two flashlights and said, "Go down, if it is in the end, the road safety will shake the flashlight for us." ”
There's no way, now a few of us will slaughter the meat on the cutting board.
As a result, the flashlight, Hou Jun grabbed another rope on the stake and pressed his feet tightly against the wall of the cave, slowly moving downward, and the remaining three of us followed the same, just entered, I couldn't help but shiver with cold, it was really cold inside, almost a few degrees of temperature, and a few of us were still wearing summer clothes, and the exposed skin was full of goosebumps.
The body of the cave is cylindrical, I don't know how long it is, but it has only been a few meters down, Hou Jun said below: "This hole is not naturally formed, it is too sleek, and if the coffin just fell down, or was there a mechanism to send it down?" ”
The old egg was strangled by the rope and breathless, and said in a rough voice: "No matter how it came down, I just want when we will end, I can't see it at all here, you say that if there is no oxygen down there, then we will die immediately?" ”
I frowned and said, "Don't talk yet, save your strength, it's too cold here, if you consume too much physical strength, you will freeze to death." ”
After going down about ten meters, I still couldn't see the end, so I was a little worried and said, "Is the distance of the rope enough?" There's no bottom in sight, and when the rope comes to an end, what are we going to do? ”
There was no shadow of a person in the dark below, Hou Jun didn't know when it was gone, I was so frightened that I looked at Lao Dan and Zhao Anyi, they also seemed to have found a problem, and gently called Hou Jun twice, but no one responded.
I hung in the air, holding a flashlight in one hand and shining downward, I found that there was a raised rock below, which looked like a stone platform, and hurriedly said: "It seems to be the end, it should be Hou Jun who went down first." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly accelerated the speed of the downward movement, and after stepping on the soles of his feet, he found that there was still a road in front of him, but the left and right sides were still falling down, and he should still not see the bottom.
"Wait! (Monkey)! The old man and I shouted to the pitch black.
"No one responded! Did something happen to him? Zhao Anyi worriedly pulled the corners of my clothes and Lao Dan's clothes, she was not too scared to walk, she was already bold.
I didn't say anything, and I wondered if Hou Jun had an accident.
"Listen!" Zhao Anyi grabbed us sensitively, pointed to the front and said, "There seems to be movement in front, and I just heard the sound of stones rolling." ”
Lao Dan and I tensed up, grabbed the flashlight with our hands, walked up a few steps, and suddenly felt as if we were stepping on something hard under our feet, and the bright light shone on the ground, which scared Lao Dan and Zhao An to jump back and hide behind me.
It was actually an arm that was stepped on, and along the past was a complete corpse, the clothes of the corpse were no longer visible, tightly connected to the skin, and the muscles and skin of the face were attached to the bones, looking like a skeletal face, blue in color, with frost, most likely frozen like this after death.
Such a corpse still can't scare me, after all, in that cave in the wolf's waist mountain, even a flying human head has been seen, how can I be afraid of a dead corpse.
"Lao Li, there seems to be something in front!" The old man suddenly shouted.
Where he looked past, there was a black whirring thing on the ground, I walked over cautiously, and looked closely and thought it might be a backpack, but it was too damp and cold here, and it had been corrupted into a mass, so could there be something inside?
I carefully reached over and played with it twice, peeling off the outer layer of decay, and the contents were also gray-black, and the original appearance was long gone, but unexpectedly in the innermost part, I actually found a gun, a very old gun.
I had just taken it out when suddenly a dark shadow flashed.
Scared our scalps, thinking that something was coming, the flashlight was actually Hou Jun, he suddenly made a shush motion, let us quiet down, and pointed his finger underneath.
Just when we didn't dare to move, under the suspended stone road, we heard the sound of rushing water, and we couldn't help but think, could it be the Yin River that the old village chief said?
I bent down and listened carefully, and faintly in the sound of the flowing water, it seemed that there were countless people's shouts inside, as if the water carried countless ghosts.
