Chapter 332: The Way Back
"If you can't go, at least ......" I gritted my teeth and closed my eyes with a sharp pain in my left shoulder, "at least we're safe now." Yavin's bar"
Among the three people, only the old buttocks were not injured, he was busy showing me and Shanzi the wounds, mine was better, the left arm was hung up but it was not strict, Shanzi was a little troublesome, he was entangled by the python and his whole body hurt, we don't know where he was injured, Shanzi said it was okay, he touched his bones with his hands, as long as the bones were okay, the pain elsewhere was only a small injury.
I didn't let Shanzi be too careless, I was really afraid that his internal organs would be injured, but Shanzi said it didn't matter, now the most urgent thing is that we have to leave this place quickly, enter the water from here in the bronze tripod, and must go out from the hole in the stone wall, but just now the giant python went into the water, where did it go, no one knows, in case that guy guards the entrance of the cave, we must be more than lucky.
I looked at the old buttocks, if what Shanzi said correctly, then we will be in big trouble, Shanzi said, I and the old buttocks can't hold their breath for so long, if we encounter the giant python at the entrance, we will definitely be suffocated to death underwater.
But according to what I had just observed of the python, its departure was an escape, not an ambush underwater, because it knew that it could not fight us, and it almost lost its life for it, so it slipped headlong into the water and slipped away.
Shanzi said that the four-legged python would definitely go down the river after going out of here, and the water of the dammed lake was going downstream, and it was not known where it would swim to, and if it appeared in the village downstream, it would be a big trouble.
I said to Shanzi that this river is a tributary of the Malco River, and that the python will definitely swim along the river to the big river, and that it will certainly not go down the stream to the village, and if it is lucky, it will eventually enter the sea.
"I hope it's like you say!" Seeing that we were all still moving, he put our backpacks on his back and said to the two of us, "Let's go, since there's nothing here, let's go out first and then discuss!" ”
We nodded in agreement, and finally decided that Shanzi would take me out first, and the old buttocks were not injured, so he was the last to leave, of course, he still needed Shanzi to swim back to assist him, there was no danger here, and we didn't have to worry about the safety of the old buttocks for the time being.
When Shanzi brought me ashore, he didn't rest, and then he turned over and got into the water again, and went into the cave again to bring the old buttocks out.
Hua Rong saw that Shanzi and I were injured, he was a little frightened, he was stunned at first, and then nervously said to us, he didn't dare to relax since we got into the water, and kept staring nervously at the water, for fear that we would need help after we came out, just before, it saw a huge black shadow swimming out of the direction of the cave, and then went all the way down the river.
Hua Rong's discovery confirmed my suspicion that the four-legged python had fled for its life.
Shanzi warned Hua Rong that after he went back, he must not tell his sister what happened today, let alone his father, Old Man Hua is a teacher, he must be an upright person, if he knows about us, he will definitely be able to guess that we are not doing ancient culture research and investigation, then we will not be able to move an inch.
As for why she didn't tell Hua Qinan, it was because Shanzi was afraid that she would worry about herself, which was the softest part of Shanzi's heart, and no one could touch it.
On the way, we agreed on a unified caliber: we said that we wanted to go to the cave to see the situation this time, but who expected to encounter the dammed lake bursting, so the group did not go down, but surveyed the topography nearby, drew two maps and was done.
Shanzi was not at ease, and let Hua Rong recite it several times along the way, and my ears and my old buttocks were about to become calloused.
Hua Rong finally got impatient, "Brother Shan, I've memorized it all backwards, don't let me nag again, hurry up and tell me what you encountered in that cave, right?" ”
Hua Rong's curiosity has been hanging since he saw us come out safely, he is the age of curiosity and adventure, this way the mountain only let him recite the nonsense we made up, but after entering the water, he didn't say a word, Hua Rong couldn't bear it anymore.
"Brother Shan, I have memorized all those words, can you quickly tell me what you have encountered? Is that big black shadow under the water the big python with claws you said when you first came up? Why did it run away all of a sudden? You guys knocked it away, didn't you? How did you defeat it? ”
Hua Rong's question was like pouring a rice jar, a bunch of questions jumped out, and Shanzi helplessly stretched out his hand to him, "Shut up for me!" Brothers still have important things to discuss, you little boy just stay honest and don't make a sound, do you hear?! Otherwise, I won't take you to play! ”
When Hua Rong heard Shanzi say this, his eyes rolled for a while, and then he said to Shanzi quite proudly: "That's okay, you promise me that I will take me with me next time I come out, I won't make trouble for you, and I will go home and tell my dad the things we discussed, but if you don't agree, then I can't guarantee that I can't say anything bad, and you don't blame me when you tell the truth!" ”
Shanzi saw Hua Rong threatening him, and he didn't bother to deal with him, so he casually said okay, okay, I will definitely take you next time, and then he turned his head and asked me, "Ding Jia, you didn't finish a sentence when you were in the cave, you continued, did you find any clues?" ”
The mountain reminded me that I had indeed discovered that the cave was different from several other treasure spots, but before I could finish speaking, I was interrupted by the cry of the python.
"Well, that's the case, there are ancient corpses of the Falcon in the Bohai Palace we went to, there are dried corpses in the Phoenix Cave of Cen Wang Laoshan, and there are limbs in the Yingmu Cave on Guimen Island, but there are no corpses or bones in this Qinglong Cave, he is like evaporated." After speaking, I looked at Shanzi and the old buttocks.
After hearing this, they were a little dazed, and they looked at each other, and then they looked at me in unison.
The old buttock said: "What do you mean, could it be that the person named Tao didn't die here at all?" ”
"Yes, that's my speculation." I nodded solemnly, "I guess Tao and that artifact are not buried in this cave at all, this cave has been empty since it was built!" ”
"Impossible." Shanzi shook his head, "You can't infer just because you didn't find Tao's corpse, you think, he must have been buried with those craftsmen at that time, but after more than two thousand years, the humidity and temperature in this cave may not be ideal, and it is very possible that those bones have already rotted into mud." ”
"Shanzi, old buttocks, do you two remember the words engraved on the bronze pillar when we first entered the Bohai Palace?" I asked, and they both nodded.
I continued: "There's a passage above that says that Falcon found out that someone knew something, and he seems to have a conspiracy! ”
