Chapter 39: The Eye

We immediately packed up our guns, packed up our equipment, and went down the rope ladder to find out what was going on in this ancient well. ~~x~ As long as there is a little clue about Duoduo, I will not let it go.

Considering the bearing capacity of the rope before, after the old ghost went to the well, he made a real yĆ n, and the carrying capacity of the rope ladder can fully withstand the weight of two people. Luckily, none of the three of us were overweight, otherwise, it would be hard to say.

For safety reasons, it was decided that it would be safer to split it into two groups. In the first group, the old ghost and Lisa went down first, and the old ghost opened the way in front. The second batch was a bag of equipment that I packed myself, plus my previous waterproof rucksack and firearms, which was almost a hundred pounds. The old ghost sarcastically said, "If you are not afraid of people being sinned, you are afraid of those who are sinned." Bringing so many things is asking for help. ā€

Another advantage of this distribution is that I just happened to stand guard for them after the break. After the old ghosts go down to the end, give me a signal, and I'll go down again.

In the middle, Lisa almost fell down because of her fear of heights, but the process of going down the well was relatively smooth. Stumbling, I finally went down to the bottom of the well. Lisa's several episodes are also thrilling.

The old ghost led the way with the spotlights in front, and Lisa and I followed closely behind, walking towards the dark river he had spoken. As we walked that way, the old ghost was still showing off to us his heroic deeds just now: "Political Commissar Wu, Commander Fang, just wait to open your eyes!" The big crab I hunted is rare and unique in the world......"

I listened to the first few sentences, but later. I didn't listen to what the old ghost said. Because I know that what he said is basically nonsense, and only about 10% is true. If you listen to it again, there is no nutrition, so you observe your surroundings by yourself.

The geological structure here is special, and they are all naturally formed underground natural karst caves. The top of the head is an inverted cone-shaped pointed stalactite, a bit like a bamboo shoot that has just sprouted in spring. Although it is uneven, it has a unique charm against the backdrop of the colorful underground lake.

Of course. There is no light at the bottom of the well itself. But the flashlight in our hands is light. Under the refraction of special angles, a special light and shadow effect is formed. There are countless small streams at your feet, flowing in one direction, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.

"Huh. Where did it go? I was the giant crab I hunted here! "As I watched carefully. The old ghost suddenly said, "Look. And bloodstains! ā€

The old ghost pointed to the ground and said, and Lisa and I looked in the direction he pointed. There was nothing but a puddle of reddish liquid on the ground. Not even a single crab leg.

Seeing such a scene, Lisa laughed and said, "Hahaha...... Terrible! It's really eye-opening! ā€

The old ghost saw that the hero image he had just built up with his hard work collapsed instantly, and his face was a little unbearable. hurriedly explained: "Well, I'm not talking nonsense. It may have been careless just now, and it was not completely killed. Or...... Some other beast was taken away. If there really is any wild beast, then the big crab can take it away, then surely we will not be able to eat it and walk around! ā€

"Shut your crow's mouth!" Lisa listened to the old ghost talk more and more unscored, so she quickly interrupted him.

"Look at my! Ahh The old ghost quickly pretended to slap himself twice in the face.

I didn't want to see the old ghost laughing, so I quickly asked him, "Where did you find Duoduo's pocket watch?" ā€

The old ghost pointed to a place not far ahead and said, "There it is." ā€

I followed the direction pointed by the old ghost, and walked over first to take a closer look. However, it was found that there was nothing else to survey except a few stones. It's just that one of the stones has a strange shape, like a carved stone turtle. But none of this matters, and we don't care.

Behind these rocks is a relatively wide undercurrent, like the confluence of the previous small streams. Again, this undercurrent flows in one direction, but at a very slow speed that you can't see it without looking closely.

I said to the old ghost and Lisa, "There are two things that can be judged from this undercurrent: one is that this is not the end of the undercurrent, and we can also go down the river to find Duoduo's whereabouts; The second is to show that the terrain is relatively flat, because if the terrain is steep, the water flow will inevitably be turbulent. ā€

"In place!" The old ghost gave me a thumbs up and praised my analysis. Then he said casually: "Even if something happens to Qian Duoduo, he will be washed downstream by this current......"

Lisa hurriedly slapped the old ghost on the arm and said, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!" ā€

The old ghost knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly said that he owed it, and asked me not to take it to heart. Raising his hand, he pretended to hit himself twice in the mouth.

Hearing the old ghost's words, I naturally felt very uncomfortable in my heart, but I didn't hold a grudge against him. In fact, the old ghost told the truth, and he didn't say anything wrong. On the contrary, the words are still in place and reasonable, but these words are like thunder in my ears. It made me feel cold and my heart and mind.

"Ah~!!" Lisa screamed in a lost soul, and the decibel level almost scared me and the old ghost away.

"Oh, my aunt, what's wrong? Can you not be so surprised? What's going on? The old ghost patted his chest and said, obviously frightened.

Lisa pointed to the oval stone behind us and said, "Eye...... Eye! ā€

When the old ghost and I heard this, we immediately used a spotlight to shine it, and we were really shocked! A crystal clear eye is staring at us. The luster, like the eyes of cats and dogs in strong light, reflects a green-green light, which looks very weird!

If you look closely, what kind of oval stone is it? It's a giant turtle! It may have been disturbed by our presence, and now it is pricking up its long neck and staring at us with one eye slanted.

We didn't move, and it didn't move. If it weren't so different from just now, I would have thought it was a stone statue or dead.

Seeing that we didn't move, its head moved lazily. Then he turned around and crawled slowly towards the undercurrent. There was only a little more than a meter between the old turtle and the undercurrent, but it took it a full ten minutes before it climbed into the water and went down the water.

It crawled for more than ten minutes, and we stood still for more than ten minutes. The whole time he stood on the spot, not moving.

As the saying goes: "The thousand-year-old king is eighty-thousand-year-old tortoise". Look at the old turtle in front of you, it will take at least 10,000 years, and even the turtle shell on its back has grown cracks! Just now I said how this stone feels weird, it turns out to be a long-lived thing.

After the old turtle left, I shone it again with a flashlight, don't wait for some primates to pop up later! But suddenly I saw a line of words on a rock: "If the body is not dead, we will never leave this life." (To be continued......)
