Chapter 11: The Tomb Wanderer (2)

Ding Lingxiu saw his strange expression, and quickly turned his head to look at the Snow Maiden Blade, and the whole person couldn't help but be shocked, the short knife that was originally bright and shaky was already covered with a thin layer of black ice crystals at this time, and the blade was cold.

However, this doubt was immediately covered up by the most important question in front of him, that is, the bursts of hunger in his stomach, Ding Lingxiu stood up and walked out of the "yurt" At this time, the sky was already dark, and there was almost no water for a whole day and night, now is not the time to think about those, the most important thing is how to get out and leave this ghost place.

The further you walked in, the more open it became, and the torch in your hand couldn't illuminate the entire space at all. Ding Lingxiu walked out for about two hours or so and couldn't walk anymore, when Niu Niu suddenly stopped, and then quickly lay on the ground.

Ding Lingxiu looked at him in surprise, and after a while, Niu Niu stood up and said, "Little brother, there should be an underground river in front of you." ”

Ding Lingxiu looked at him suspiciously, at this time Ding Lingxiu was no longer able to argue with him, it was better to save some effort, hoping to find an exit before they ran out of strength.

Who knew that he didn't take a few steps and was really hit by Niu Niu, there is indeed a dark river in front, the dark river is more than ten meters wide, and the water is turbulent, if he saw such a magnificent underground dark river before, Ding Lingxiu would definitely be pleasantly surprised and almost got up, but now his life is at stake, where can he think so much, and now his only concern is how to cross this dark river.

Standing on the edge of the river, Ding Lingxiu picked up a large stone and threw it down. But after a long time the stone was thrown, no sound could be heard from the bottom.

"Can you swim?" Niu Niu asked suddenly.

Ding Lingxiu picked up the hand that had been plunged into the lake, smiled bitterly at Niu Niu, shook his head and said:

"No, the temperature of this water is much lower than you think! If you go down, you will have convulsions immediately. ”

Although Ding Lingxiu can swim, he can only sigh in the face of such cold groundwater. And at this time, the Hundred Ghost Diagram was still in his backpack, and he couldn't use external forces for a while, so Ding Lingxiu at this time was really at a loss.

But at this time, Niu Niu was already undressing, Ding Lingxiu looked at him curiously and said, "Niu Niu, you don't really want to swim over, do you?" ”

Niu Niu nodded while taking off his clothes and said, "Is there anything else I can do?" You can starve to death without drowning! ”

That being said, Ding Lingxiu still felt that it was not safe to do so.

The cow didn't care about it, and with his clothes in his mouth, he tied a rope around the pheasant's neck, and took it with him into the water. The pheasant may have been born to swim, leaving Ding Lingxiu to sit on the shore and watch.

Although the posture of Niu Niu's swimming is not flattering, it is very fast.

But before he swam a few meters away, Niu Niu suddenly lost his rhythm and choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and it seemed that he couldn't resist the cold temperature of the groundwater. Ding Lingxiu immediately stood up and looked at Niu Niu anxiously, hesitating whether to go down, because although Ding Lingxiu's water quality was not bad, the water temperature of this underground river was really ridiculously low, far lower than the last time he caught the inner sparrow.

"Save ...... Help me. "The cow floats and sinks in the water. Ding Lingxiu was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to think about it and jumped into the water.

As soon as he entered the water, Ding Lingxiu immediately found that his body was immediately swallowed by the bone-deep groundwater, which made his scalp tingle, and he was in a hurry, and he fluttered in the water for a long time and never understood the essentials.

At this moment, Ding Lingxiu's ears suddenly heard a few dull "empty" sounds, which were very loud and echoed throughout the hall, and then the water level in front of him immediately dropped a lot, and after a while, the turbulent stream just now had disappeared.

Ding Lingxiu looked at Niu Niu also lying in the water, his heart was overjoyed, and what surprised Ding Lingxiu even more was that there were a few things moving on the riverbed, Ding Lingxiu cautiously approached and took a closer look at a few loach-like fish, Ding Lingxiu immediately caught a few, and then turned back to the shore and put those wooden sticks on his back, and quickly walked to the other side of the dark river.

Light a bonfire, wash the fish and put it on the fire, Ding Lingxiu took off the soaked and only remaining clothes and wrung them out vigorously, and then shook it vigorously twice, and suddenly a black thing fell out of Ding Lingxiu's pocket.

Niu Niu looked at the black thing vigilantly, and then looked at Ding Lingxiu, the expression in his eyes was very complicated.

Ding Lingxiu bowed down and took a closer look, the black thing was nothing else, it was the strange-looking stone that Lao Zhao handed over to Zhang Qiang before leaving when Zhang Qiang delivered the letter for the first time, and kept saying that it could ward off evil spirits, and it was also what Ding Lingxiu was going to help Zhang Qiang find back this time, they never thought that things would go so smoothly.

Ding Lingxiu easily picked up the stone, and then wiped the water stains on it. Niu Niu's eyes looked at the stone in Ding Lingxiu's hand for a moment. Ding Lingxiu stopped moving, and then put the stone in front of his eyes, who knew that Niu Niu had not moved, the pheasant actually "clucked", and then flew towards Ding Lingxiu's palm.

Ding Lingxiu saw that the situation was not good, and immediately retracted his hand, and the pheasant circled around Ding Lingxiu, and the "clucking" sound in his mouth was endless, making Ding Lingxiu a little bit of a monk who couldn't figure his head.

"Little brother, where did you get that thing?" Niu Niu picked up the pheasant, and then stroked it in his arms, and the pheasant finally calmed down.

Ding Lingxiu hesitated for a moment, then sat next to Niu Niu and took out the black stone and said, "Is there anything special about this stone?" At this moment, Ding Lingxiu found that the pheasant looked in the direction of Ding Lingxiu again, and Ding Lingxiu hurriedly stuffed the stone into his arms.

"Yes." Niu Niu nodded and said, "But where did you get this thing?" ”

Ding Lingxiu looked at the fish that was still roasted on the bonfire, the fish was already a little burnt, and the faint fragrance was blowing in his face, Ding Lingxiu swallowed his saliva, and then told Niu Niu everything Zhang Qiang said. Niu Niu listened with relish, but Ding Lingxiu kept looking at the fish in front of him and swallowed his saliva.

After Ding Lingxiu finished speaking, he took a fragrant fish behind him and took a bite. Not to mention, although there is no salt, it tastes very refreshing, as the saying goes, when you are hungry, the bran is as sweet as honey, and when you are full, it is not sweet to eat honey. But Niu Niu kept sitting in front of Ding Lingxiu, looking at Ding Lingxiu stupidly, and Ding Lingxiu didn't know what Ding Lingxiu was thinking about in that little head.

But it's okay, take this opportunity to eat a few more fish.

Suddenly, Niu Niu grabbed Ding Lingxiu and said, "Little brother, show me that stone again." ”

"Can you guarantee that pheasant won't pounce?" Saying that, Ding Lingxiu made a self-defense action.

Niu Niu nodded hurriedly, and then Ding Lingxiu carefully handed the black stone to his hand, Niu Niu looked at the fire for a long time when he held the black piece, and Ding Lingxiu had already eaten another fish at this opportunity.

"Is there anything special about this stone?" Ding Lingxiu said while eating.

"No, it's not a stone!" Niu Niu said while looking at it.

Ding Lingxiu turned his head to look at Niu Niu suspiciously, and the fish meat that he didn't swallow kept stuck in his throat.

"This ...... What is this not a stone? Saying that, Ding Lingxiu coughed violently and spit out all the fish meat stuck in his throat.

Niu Niu held the stone in his hand and shook it gently in front of Ding Lingxiu's eyes, Ding Lingxiu looked at his movements intently, but he didn't find anything unusual.

"Little brother, you put it in front of the campfire and take a look." Saying that, Niu Niu handed the stone to Ding Lingxiu, and Ding Lingxiu threw away the remaining half of the uneaten fish in his hand without knowing it, and then put the stone in front of the bonfire and looked at it.

The stone, which was originally as black as asphalt, was actually a little transparent under the light of the campfire, and it seemed to spread like a black mist inside. Ding Lingxiu shook slightly in confusion, and the black mist inside seemed to be drifting a little bit by Ding Lingxiu's shaking. This made Ding Lingxiu even more surprised, it shouldn't be a stone inside, could it be water?

"Little brother, do you see clearly?" Niu Niu said as he swallowed a bite of the fish.

Ding Lingxiu nodded, continued to look inside, and looked at Ding Lingxiu for a while, feeling that his eyes were a little painful, and tears had flowed out. But I still can't see what happened.

"Is this water?" Ding Lingxiu put down the black stone and asked.

Niu Niu devoured the whole box at this time, he opened his mouth, it was filled with fatty fish, and then swallowed it hard, his expression was very painful, Ding Lingxiu patted his back gently, only to hear a "coo", he swallowed the whole piece of fish.

Then Niu Niu laughed and said, "I finally understand why those climbers and those blue things have been chasing Brother Zhang Qiang desperately, and the reason why I thought you were a little weird when I first met Zhang Qiang." ”

Ding Lingxiu was shocked again, could it be because of this thing?

"Those climbers will not leave the barren grassland, and they will generally not take the initiative to attack people if they are not threatened, but Zhang Qiang became very manic when he appeared, and I felt very strange when my grandfather told me about it, and when I saw him, I felt that he exuded a strange smell, and I only smelled that smell once." Niu Niu said with a long sigh.

"What does it smell like?"

Niu Niu laughed and said, "Little brother, I'm not talking about the smell of the body, because I am a leather person who is very sensitive to some smells, and this smell was left by the man in black, so the memory is even deeper." ”

Niu Niu said and pointed to the stone in Ding Lingxiu's hand and said, "Now I know that the smell is coming from this thing. ”

"What the hell is this?" Ding Lingxiu really couldn't stand Niu Niu continuing to sell Guan Zi, and asked. R1058
