Chapter 19: Strange Organs

The two of them slowly approached me, but there was nothing around me that could be used as weapons, and I didn't have the strength to run now, not to mention that I didn't think I could outrun them.

There was no way, I simply untied the bag containing the imperial chess and wanted to pour out the imperial chess. When it fell into my hand, it felt hot again. As soon as I let go, I fell to the ground and got out.

This time it worked, the two dragons, watching the emperor chess fall out, showed a frightened look, and hurriedly retreated. The emperor rolled towards them, and they ran away screaming.

I hurriedly walked over and intercepted the Emperor with my foot, if it rolled away, my life might be lost. I picked it up in a bag of tips. Pick up the miner's lamp again, and see that the two sprites have disappeared, before putting away the imperial chess and putting it back in his trouser pocket.

I fell into a long cave again, and my mobile phone had no signal in this place, and I couldn't call Meng Yingjiu. The cave is like an inverted trapezoid, and the slope I rolled down was relatively gentle, looking about 60 degrees, but it was not a slope on the other side, but a straight mountain wall, about 3 meters wide at the bottom.

Sitting on the ground against the mountain wall and resting for a while, I checked my body and found that there were no wounds, just some bruises on my arms. How could it suddenly fall off?

I took the miner's lamp and pointed it in the direction I rolled down, and found that the slope was a whole rock, and there were no holes. Did I just fall through the rocks? It's incredible, but there's really no hole in my head.

Thinking of Meng Yingjiu, who was still fighting with the dragon above, I shouted at the top: "Meng Yingjiu! But no one answered.

After thinking about it, I decided to climb up and take a look, and I had to find Meng Yingjiu first. It's also possible that down here, for visual reasons, I can't see where I fell. I can't believe I actually walked through the rocks, isn't that something that happens in magic?

The slope is about 10 meters high, and it's hard to imagine that I rolled down from such a height. I tied the miner's lamp with the strap of my backpack, left a little more space, and hung the backpack on my body, freeing my hands to climb.

Imagine that the climb should be easy, as the slope is ok, not very big. But after slowly climbing up, I realized that it was really difficult to climb like this, because there were very few raised rocks on this slope that I could borrow, and these stones were surprisingly smooth, which is why I didn't have any external injuries, but it made it difficult for me to hold on.

I finally climbed maybe 2 meters, and I didn't have the strength anymore. It was pitch black all around, and there was no sound, which made me even more nervous, my palms sweaty, and I couldn't grasp it steadily. Accidentally, without grasping steadily, I slid down. After working hard for so long, I got back to square one in an instant.

I sat on the ground, my limbs still shaking, and it seemed that I couldn't get up. I suddenly wanted to cry, and I really verified what it means to die if you don't die. I could have stayed in the office and blew the air conditioner, or interviewed in the city, but it was better than being in this ghost cave. What the hell am I here for? Sure enough, curiosity killed the cat!

At this point, it is useless to regret it. I removed the miner's lamp and looked at the roof again. After looking at it for a long time, I still didn't see any holes.

I couldn't sit here and wait all the time, so after a break, I decided to look for it myself. The two sprites were running to the left, so I decided to go to the right. In order for Meng Yingjiu to find me, I have to leave a mark.

I found a lipstick in my backpack, and there was no way to do it, so I drew an arrow on the wall of the cave with lipstick, pointing in the direction I was going, and off I went.

After some self-examination, I am much calmer now. And there is also the emperor chess on the body, so there is no need to be afraid of the dragon.

As I walked, I remembered that I still had a map, and immediately took it out to look at it, but I still couldn't see how to go. It seems to me that the realistic terrain does not match these lines at all.

I dropped the map and put it back in my bag. I've already chosen the path and walked, I walked along the hole, and the more I went, the more I felt that something was wrong.

The cave gradually became a rectangular cave, and the further you went, the more regular the cave became, as if it had been dug by hand.

I picked up my pace, and after a few minutes of walking, the cave walls turned into brick stone walls. Isn't this a natural cave? Why is there a man-made stone wall inside, can't it be built by a dragon? I shook my head, this is outrageous.

Walking inside, the ground has become a stone pavement, and the top of the head has become a brick vault, which has become an artificial tunnel. How so? Is this an abandoned arsenal built in a cave?

I took out my phone to take a picture, there was not much battery left, and I only took a picture. Flipping through the photo of the dragon, there was nothing on it! Only empty caves! I couldn't help but feel chills.

I reassured myself that I must have not seen it, but I was scared again. Put away your phone and don't dare to take pictures anymore, for fear of taking pictures that shouldn't be taken again.

Moving on, I can dismiss my previous thoughts, because there are strange carved murals on the stone walls, which is definitely not the style of the arsenal. These murals are carved with many people, and they seem to be dancing around a huge person, who is at least 10 times the size of the small person next to him. I don't know who left such a strange carving here.

I watched as the strange murals continued to walk, and the carvings inside became even more bizarre. There are many human faces depicted on the walls, each with protruding eyes and a mouth the size of a coin.

I used a miner's lamp to shine into the small hole to see what was inside. I didn't know what I stepped on, and I accidentally slipped and fell. "Oops!" I sat down on the ground, and I didn't have time to think about anything else, so I hurried to find the culprit who caused me to fall.

When the light shone through, I realized that there were a lot of small wooden sticks on the ground, and I had just stepped on one of them and slipped on them. I picked up a small wooden stick next to me, about the thickness of my thumb and about 50 centimeters long.

An idea popped into my head, and I took the little wooden stick and put it in the mouth of the human face. After one is put in, it is not yet finished. I picked up another one and stuffed it in, and about halfway through it, it was all over the place, and I couldn't push it in anymore.

I took out the stick on the outside, looked at the mouths on the wall, and looked at the countless sticks on the ground. I suddenly felt that this scene was very familiar, and I remembered the tomb robbery novels I had read before. There is a trap in the tomb to prevent tomb robbers, and if someone touches it, they will shoot many arrows from the wall to kill the grave robbers.

But what should fly out of the mouth of a human face should be an arrow, how can a wooden stick kill people? Is it poisonous? I immediately threw away the stick I was holding and wiped my fingers clean from my pants.

It's too careless, if this is poisonous, will my fingers rot? There are many pictures of poisoning and tragic death in TV series in my mind, which is really cruel, it is better to use arrows directly to make it happy.

After looking closely, there was nothing unusual on the fingers, and I could only resign myself to fate. There are so many sticks on the ground, someone must have triggered the mechanism, so these sticks will fly out. I don't know what the purpose of designing such a weird mechanism is, but I now have a clue.

I guess it was Zou Zhou or his father who came here to trigger the mechanism, and when I thought of this, my confidence came back and I continued to set off. But this time I was more careful, and I walked slowly next to the wall, every step was very light, for fear of running into any more mechanisms.

Although the confidence is back, there are more and more questions, ghost holes, ghosts, and strange mechanisms. A bold conjecture came to mind, am I now entering an ancient tomb built in a ghost cave? In a flash of inspiration, is this the reason why Sister Zhang didn't let me call the police! They had stolen the contents of the tomb before, and they were afraid of being discovered, but it was not more important than the lives of father and son. Forget it, don't think about it, your head hurts, just wait until you find them, just ask clearly.

I continued to walk down the tunnel, and the walls on either side were still oddly carved with a group of small people surrounding a giant.

At the end of the tunnel appears a stone door with two huge human faces carved into it. These two faces are the same as the faces in the previous organs, they are both eyeballs protruding, but the mouths of the faces here are not holes, they are ordinary people's mouths, and the corners of their mouths are slightly raised, as if they are laughing.

Such a carving is too unserious to put in an ancient tomb. I looked at this quirky design and thought it was a little funny. It felt like this door was saying to me welcome.

The door had opened a small slit, and I was able to lean sideways to get in. My miner's lamp stood through the crack in the door and looked inside, and inside was a staircase that went down. I went in sideways and walked slowly against the wall.

The stairs are one story high, and at the end of the walk is a T-junction, I took the miner's lamp and looked at the left and right, but I couldn't see the bottom. I don't know which side to go, men on the left and women on the right, choose the right.

I took out my lipstick and prepared to draw an arrow to the right on the wall. But I saw that there was already an arrow carved to the right on the wall! I was happy in my heart, was it Zou Zhou who left them? It seems that I was lucky, and I really chose the right one.

The sound of pushing suddenly came from the stone gate behind me, and I immediately turned around and called: "Meng Yingjiu!" No one answered, so I walked back up the stairs and called, "Zou Zhou!" Is that you? Still no one answered, and no one was seen behind the door.

Realizing that something was wrong, if it was Meng Yingjiu or Zou Zhou's father and son, they would definitely answer me. Did the door move on its own? Or is there someone else in this cave besides us? But if it's human, why are you so sneaky, don't answer me.

Whatever it was, the atmosphere was already wrong, and my heart began to grow, so I didn't think much about it, and immediately turned back to the intersection and ran to the right aisle. After running like this for a few minutes, I came to another intersection. Looking back behind him, there was no one following, and there was nothing unusual, and he was a little relieved.

But I still didn't dare to relax, gasping for breath and began to look for arrows on the wall to guide the way. Sure enough, I found an arrow pointing to the right on the wall. I walked in the direction of the arrow, and it was quiet in the hallway, so my breathing and footsteps were so loud that I panicked.

It suddenly felt like there were some other voices in the voice, so I left to hold my breath and stop abruptly. I only heard footsteps behind me, and when I stopped, the footsteps immediately stopped, and someone was following me!
