Chapter Ninety-Five: The Flower-Clothed Child
Looking at this dark hole, I was very conflicted, should I go down or not? If you want to say that Hu San is inside, I am not a little sure. Despite the 'down' mark, it doesn't look like someone has opened it at all.
I was anxious, but I heard something in the hole that seemed to be a noise, and it seemed to be the sound of a car horn, could there be a car underneath? How is this possible? I put my ear to the hole and listened carefully, and at first I heard nothing quietly, and after a while suddenly there was a small whistle-like sound, and there seemed to be someone talking, and these sounds were pitifully small, smaller than the buzzing of mosquitoes.
Although my ear voice is not as good as Hu San, people who practice martial arts generally have much stronger hearing than ordinary people, so this kind of voice is me, and if I am replaced by ordinary people, I can't hear it at all.
I continued to listen for a long time, but I didn't find anything of value, it was still the sound of a mosquito-like horn and a sound similar to someone talking. I suddenly remembered that Hu San had said at the entrance above that he had heard a lot of people talking here, just like the bustle of many people in the market. Is that what you're talking about? Then his ears are too good, these are several floors below and he can still hear?
With this discovery, I decided to go to the bottom to find out, although I can't be sure that Hu San is below, but this is also the only clue. But how to go down, I don't even know how deep it is now, and the flashlight can't shine at all, so I'm afraid it's dangerous to jump straight down.
"By the way, there's a rope," I kept forgetting about it.
I rummaged through the backpack for a long time to find a rope, and I don't know what material it was made of, a little thicker than my thumb, hoping to stop me.
I looked at the slate, if it was tied to the slate, one should not be enough, one piece would be dozens of catties at most, and at least three or more pieces would have to exceed my weight. Thinking of this, I pulled open two more stone slabs, tied them together with a rope, and pulled them hard, and it should be almost done.
So I threw the rope into the hole, and with a flashlight in my mouth, I crawled down the rope. Although I could have slid to the end of the rope very quickly, I didn't do it because I didn't know what was going on, so I had to be careful.
I slid down slowly, constantly shaking my head and observing the situation around me with a flashlight, but the end of the light in my heart was still as dark as ink, as if I was in the night sky at the moment, surrounded by endless nothingness.
I don't know how long this rope is, what if I still can't see the situation clearly at the end? I started to feel anxious.
At this time, a sudden wind blew, a little cool, blowing very comfortably on the body, but like the wind in the underground river, I couldn't tell the direction.
After a few minutes, I looked down and shone my flashlight downwards, and found that the rope had reached the end, and then looked at the depths under my feet, there were a few faint bright lights, floating like ghost fire.
It feels like a blurred night scene in a movie or TV production, and this kind of scenery looks very beautiful when you watch it on TV, but at the moment I think it's so weird.
Looking at the blurred light and shadow under my feet, it feels like it is at least a few hundred meters below. Anyway, I'm not unsure about jumping from this height, but it's also very risky, because with the above experience, even the color of the wall can change instantly, and even Hu San can turn into a white face, so how can I trust the height I have seen.
But can I go up again now, and what can I do if I go up again, I still can't find the exit, and maybe I'll lose this clue.
Just as I was holding the rope and shaking my body and thinking wildly, I suddenly felt the tight rope loosen, and then there was a soft bang, and my body fell down involuntarily, like a high-rise building stepping into the air, and the wind in my ears was whistling, blowing me dizzy.
"Damn, I can't go down if I don't want to go down this time, is the rope broken?" I cursed in my heart.
Although the accident caught people off guard, I still reacted instantly after years of practicing martial arts, and I immediately lifted my breath and prepared to perform light skills before landing.
I held a flashlight and looked down, the light under my feet became clearer and clearer, and I was surprised to find that those were all street lights? The dim street lights crisscrossed the streets, and there were even plants planted on the streets, but the colors were not clear.
There are a few black dots scattered on the road moving slowly, and occasionally you will have an unknown object speeding past against the light, which should be a car.
I saw all this in my eyes, and I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, and my jaw almost dropped.
In the blink of an eye, my feet were less than a few dozen meters from the ground, and at this moment my feet were the roof of a family, and I secretly said in my heart: "Can't you break the roof of someone's house, otherwise how can I explain it?" ”
But I overestimated my skills, I thought it was good, when my toes touched the roof, a dragonfly to point water, a little slowdown and then jumped on the road, but I didn't know if the roof was too fragile or I didn't grasp the strength, the whole person stepped on the roof collapsed, with a cloud of dust stirred up, and countless broken bricks and tiles fell into the house.
When my feet hit the ground, my heart also fell, although there was such a big accident, but after all, the small life is still there, and the landing is considered a success.
The dust in front of me slowly scattered, and I noticed that there was still an electric light in the room, which was a dim incandescent lamp, and the degree seemed to be very low, at most fifteen or twenty degrees.
Under the faint yellow light, in front of me was an extremely low clay kang with straw mats on it, and the mat was rolled up with black bedding, emitting a musty smell that gave people headaches.
When I turned my eyes to the left, I was startled by the sight in front of me, in the dark corner was a stove, next to two children huddled there shivering, because the light was too dim to see their faces and appearances, only vaguely saw that they were wearing brightly colored flower clothes.
They seem to be scared of me, but I'm no better than them, I just don't shiver like that.
I watched them for a long time, my heart was beating wildly, there were actually two children in flower clothes in such a strange place? In this situation, my first thought was that they were not good.
I opened my mouth slightly, held the flashlight in my hand, and shone it in the direction of the two children. When they saw the light of the flashlight, they trembled even more, and curled up in a ball with their hands on their faces, and what was even more strange was that they actually made a "squeak" sound.
I was horrified by this voice, and I couldn't help but shiver.
Damn, aren't they human? Why did you make such a weird sound.
"Hey! Can you understand me? I asked tentatively.
They didn't react at all when they heard my words, they still covered their faces and screamed like they had just done, and the sound didn't sound like a human being.
Are they youkai? My heart was beating with a drum.
Although I was afraid, there was no turning back at this moment, I had to climb the sword mountain, and I had to go through the sea of fire.
I slowly reached for the two children with my flashlight, I wanted to see what the hell you are.
As I got closer, they screamed harder. When I was almost a meter away from them, one of the children got up from the ground with a trembling body. The moment his face lit up, I was so startled that I almost threw my flashlight to the ground, because I saw a small white face, as white as paper, with a little red cherry mouth that pierced people's eyes.
"Ahh I let out a soft sigh of fright and took two steps back.
Then I saw that the two little ghosts had already crawled up, trembling and staring at me, and from time to time their mouths made strange noises, as if they were talking to me.
At this time, their bodies have been completely exposed to the light, although the appearance of the two children is extremely similar, but there are some differences, it seems that one has a big mouth, one has a slightly smaller mouth, one is slightly masculine, and the other is a little feminine.
In the dim light, the two small things in front of me looked extremely weird. Looking at their height, I realized that everything in the room was not normal, it seemed to be one size smaller, and even the roof was about the same size as mine. I am more than 1.7 meters tall, and no normal person would build such a short house.
