Chapter 387: Tomb Protector
Since entering the Yongdao, everyone has not stopped for a moment, first met those dry bones and ghost hands, just knew that these ghost hands are most afraid of light, but then met the man-eating pomfret who likes light, and from the depth of the water in this Yongdao, it can be seen that this is not the place with the most piranhas, it should be the water in the main tomb that seeped out, and brought out the fish eggs to cause these few in the outer Yongdao, otherwise the large group of man-eating pomfret would have eaten them only white bones.
Cui Fatzi looked at a few man-eating pomfrets that could be vaguely seen in the water and said: "The owner of this tomb must not have imagined that his ancient tomb has seeped water after nearly a thousand years of wind and rain, and these waters have given us an early warning effect, otherwise we will blindly open this main tomb, and the cannibal pomfret will pour out in large quantities, and we will be greatly injured if we don't die." ”
Dongzi held up his glasses and said: "So when it comes to water drops and stones, some idioms said by the ancients are not groundless, even if it is an ancient tomb of green plaster mud, it will slowly disintegrate after being soaked in water for a long time." But this is easy to understand, but what I can't understand the most is that this fish species has not been found in our country, I didn't expect to find it in this ancient tomb, if I was still doing archaeology before, this must be a huge discovery, you can consider going back and writing them an anonymous letter or something. ”
The evil cat looked at his expensive shoes distressedly and said, "What letter to write, let's go out alive first, the one who robs the tomb is the one who robs the tomb, and what is pretending to be high." "These people are like this, although they hurt each other, but these words can't hurt each other's brotherhood at all.
Dongzi also responded: "What do you pure tomb robbers know? It's a feeling. After saying that, everyone looked at him and pouted. The horse monkey said: "Okay Dongzi, hurry up and put away your feelings, now is not the time to discuss any feelings, if you can't think of a way for a while, we all have to die here, maybe in a few hundred years, your colleagues will dig us out, but it's hard to say if there are bones left." ”
Zhou Yuefeng didn't speak, and Dongzi continued to say at this time: "Brother Feng, there is another feature of this cannibal pomfret that I forgot to mention just now, that is, their bodies, didn't you see the one that Lao Cui inserted with a knife just now?" They are discus-like. The piranha does not swim fast enough, but it is extremely fast when preyling, and it swims slowly mainly because of its discus-like size. ”
They kept talking about this, but Zhou Yuefeng didn't speak, but kept thinking about how to avoid these ghost hands and piranhas to enter the main tomb. Hearing what Dongzi said, plus what he had learned about these fish before, all the information went through Zhou Yuefeng's head several times.
At this time, Zhou Yuefeng suddenly said, "I know." When everyone heard Zhou Yuefeng say this, everyone looked at him, and they all wanted to know how to enter the main tomb. Zhou Yuefeng said: "This thing looks contradictory, but if you think about it carefully, there is something that can have both. ”
The horse monkey has always been a heartless person, and he naturally didn't understand what Zhou Yuefeng said, and he understood the previous double insurance for a long time before he figured it out, and that thought had already occupied his mind, that is, getting rid of the ghost hand and the piranha could not be done at the same time, and it was this kind of thought that made everyone fall into despair, and even considered whether to continue for a moment.
However, although Zhou Yuefeng said that there was a way to solve it, he never explained why, obviously he still had some concerns. Dongzi said: "Brother Feng, it's okay, this method may be difficult to do, but it is always better to have a way than not to have a way." Zhou Yuefeng thought for a while and said: "Dongzi is right, this method is indeed difficult to do, and it may not be feasible, but now there is only this way." ”
The horse monkey said: "Brother Feng, just say it, the brothers have been through so much with you, no matter what the method, we have to try, and the brothers dare to follow you to try." Zhou Yuefeng looked at the others, and the twelve people except himself all nodded in approval to him, which means that there is no way at this time, only if he comes up with this method, he will say it, and he has to try it if it works.
Zhou Yuefeng said: "The only way to deal with those ghost hands is light, and the way to deal with piranhas is speed, and the other is to avoid light." Cui Fatzi bit his thumb and said: "Brother Feng, I know, the two lights are rebellious, and they will definitely not be satisfied at the same time, so you mean with light, but break through the speed of the piranha attack?" ”
After listening to Cui Fatzi's words, everyone thought that Zhou Yuefeng meant this, but they didn't expect Zhou Yuefeng to shake his head and say: "No, we can only have one light source at a time now, if we are too fast, someone will definitely get out of the light." After saying this, everyone was a little confused, they still didn't understand what Zhou Yuefeng meant, and Zhou Yuefeng didn't have time to sell it, so he immediately continued: "We are people, and piranhas are fish, so we keep the light on the water, and there is no visibility underwater, so that there is no visibility under the water can only muddy the water." ”
The evil cat said, "Okay, this is easy to do, as long as we send two people to muddy the water." Cui Fatzi finally reacted after listening to it for a long time, put the machete to his neck and said: "I'm coming, isn't it just muddying the water, I'll stir it as soon as I enter the water." ”
Zhou Yuefeng said: "No, there are not too many piranhas in this seeping water, these things only groups will attack people, and I also said at the time that it was because the leader's shoes were broken, and he was bitten because he had injuries on his feet, and we just used this method after entering the main tomb, and we didn't need it in the corridor." ”
As he spoke, he stuffed his trouser leg into his shoes, and then said to everyone: "Now what I'm most worried about is not this ghost hand and piranha, what I'm worried about is that if the main tomb is used to prevent theft, then the water pressure in this place must be very high now, I think the frame of this corridor is not too high, if it is filled with water, I am afraid that it will drown us if it leaks out at once." ”
Everyone listened to Zhou Yuefeng's words, and immediately looked up, and at this time, the flashlight in Dongzi's hand suddenly made a clanging sound, and then the fire went out, Dongzi's hand was also fast enough, and at the moment of extinguishing the flame, he immediately took out a new flashlight and turned it on, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because as long as the darkness invaded them, those ghost hands would tightly strangle everyone.
There are fifteen people in the group, and now there are thirteen left, although they have long known that they will definitely encounter extraordinary things when they enter this ancient tomb, but now that everyone sees the brothers who get along with them day and night falling, they will inevitably have some feelings in their hearts. Looking at the black water in front of me, although it is not deep, listening to the sound of ticking water, and thinking of the leader's bitten feet, I feel cold all over my body.
Zhou Yuefeng had already prepared his equipment at this time, and then took out a pair of shoes from the equipment carried by Dongzi and threw them to the team leader, Bihe had already wrapped his feet, but the bite was too bad, and his feet were already swollen and he couldn't wear shoes. Su Wu helped the leader and stuffed his feet into his shoes, if he didn't wear shoes in this water, he would soon lure the few piranhas that were swimming away.
Everyone packed up and was about to go into the water when Zhou Yuefeng stopped them: "You guys wait here, I'll go over and have a look first, and find out where the water level in the main tomb is, if it's too high, we really have to think of other ways to get in." With that, he took out another flashlight from his equipment, then tied it to his waist, and walked forward with a person wading through the water.
Because it is the water in the ancient tomb, and it has accumulated in the ground all the year round and does not flow, so it emits a very light but recognizable smell of decay, Zhou Yuefeng waded through the water, and there was a constant sound of rushing water, those fish did not provoke it, it seems that they are indeed as Dongzi said, only if they form a group will attack humans, so a few are still a little afraid of people.
He continued to walk some distance, and when he looked back, he saw that his brothers could not see clearly, only the light of the flashlight, which had been turned into a scattered light, was still faintly visible. At this time, Zhou Yuefeng obviously heard the sound of the water before getting closer and closer, and also felt an aura colder than the water under his feet emanating not far away, with his intuition, he knew that this must be the place where the water flowed out of the main tomb.
Zhou Yuefeng continued to wade through the water and walked two steps forward, and suddenly felt that the soles of his feet were empty, and then the water suddenly overflowed his thighs, he reacted very quickly, his hind feet were still in the shallow water, and he reacted in time as soon as he fell, and then his body pushed back hard and came up, at this time, Zhou Yuefeng took a look at the big pit he had just fallen into, and found that the water here was extremely deep, and it should be a trench built outside the main tomb.
This ancient tomb is really weird, I have heard that the city has a moat, and I have never heard that the ancient tomb has a protective ravine, but Zhou Yuefeng took a look and found that this ravine is still a little far away from the main tomb, and he must pass through this river to be able to walk to the ancient tomb, if he jumps over, it is absolutely impossible, because the water here cannot predict how wide it is, maybe he can't jump over and then fall into the water, it must be nine deaths, thinking of this, Zhou Yuefeng can only try how deep the river is.
He pulled out the Soul Suppression Whip from his waist, and then shook it out of thin air, and the Soul Suppression Whip immediately stood up, like a stick composed of iron rings, and then he put the Soul Suppression Whip into the water, fortunately, it was low to the bottom of the water all of a sudden, pulled it out and measured it, and found that the water was fine, it should be just below his waist.
After measuring the depth of the water, he immediately slowly entered the water from the side of the ditch, and as soon as he entered, the water did not reach his waist, Zhou Yuefeng lifted the flashlight up, hung it on his neck, and then continued to walk forward, the water was cold and cold, and exuded a rotten atmosphere, the closer to the ancient tomb, the stronger the smell, and the smell was very disgusting.
But fortunately, the ditch is the same width, and the water does not deepen when he goes inside, and he wades through the water step by step and walks forward very carefully, at this time, he suddenly feels that he seems to have stepped on something under his feet, and he kicked his foot out of it, and then took it with his hand, and found that what he was holding in his hand was nothing else, but a skull.
