Chapter 31: There Are Ghosts Behind the Wall
The stone wall, which was originally covered with vines, was actually led by our bonfire, and everyone was so frightened that they retreated again and again. Is there gasoline on this wall? Stones don't get caught on fire, do they? Thinking so, I looked at the unicorn and waited for him to give us an explanation, he still knew more about the things in the mountains. But the expression of the unicorn is the same as ours, and there is only doubt in the fright.
I don't care so much, if it catches fire, we have to put out the fire first, and everyone originally drank half of the wild vegetable soup, all of which was used to extinguish the fire, and subconsciously splashed it at the burning wall.
The unicorn said: "Hurry up and put out the fire, and then figure out what is going on, otherwise we will be in the middle of the night and the fire will lead those people over again." ”
I didn't care about it at first, it doesn't matter if the stone catches fire, it will be extinguished by burning it for a while. After he reminded him like this, there was also a cool breeze behind him. That's right, the night in the mountains is pitch black, where there is a fire, you can see a bright light a few kilometers away, lure those mercenaries over, see that we didn't go down the mountain obediently, I'm not afraid, they obviously won't move me, but kill a hundred things, they will definitely be able to do it, in case anyone harms, I will definitely go on the road of no return to find the real murderer like a single horn in the future because I can't explain clearly?
So I beckoned everyone, quickly choose the nearest water source, the tool for extinguishing the fire is the lunch box in our hands, carry water to extinguish the fire one by one, and quickly extinguish the fire while the fire is not yet uncontrollable.
After a few minutes, everyone was out of breath, and I was so tired that I was sweating profusely, and the stone was so good that I almost couldn't control it. But the strength of the people can still move mountains, and with our hard work, the fire was extinguished in a moment.
If it weren't for the quick one-horned eye that pulled out a burning wooden stick, we probably would have extinguished even the last fire.
After extinguishing the fire, everyone was so tired that they sat on the ground, and Su Rina muttered: "It can be regarded as extinguished, this has to burn, and if something happens, it will cause a mountain fire, and it will be a disaster." ”
I smiled and said, "Not really, right?" Can it be a disaster? ”
Dujiao confirmed Su Rina's words, and he said: "That's right, Sister Hong is right, a spark can start a prairie fire, and it is very possible if we don't control the fire in time and cause a fire all over the mountains." ”
In this way, I am really a little afraid, if we set the mountain on fire, then we will be very guilty.
But I didn't soften my mouth, so I stimulated the unicorn and said: "Sister Hong is right about everything, she is a little girl, how can you be an elder and close your mouth Sister Red?" Can't you call Xiaohong? ”
Surina glared at me disapprovingly.
Before she could speak, Dujiao smiled and said: "Sister Hong's boss is our big customer, she is the representative of Quanquan, I must respect the customer, the customer is God." ”
It seems that he is really a Chinese expert, one moment the spark will be a prairie fire, and the next time the customer is God, he can do anything, but it's a pity. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man and men are afraid of entering the wrong industry, he doesn't have a deep understanding, otherwise he wouldn't do this business, and finally let the police target him.
I didn't argue with the unicorn anymore, just smiled and nodded, expressing my agreement with his statement, Sister Hong will be Sister Hong, and she won't do anything to me.
Looking back at the fat brother and the three of them, they all sat on the ground panting, the fat brother and Jiang Li both complained that they couldn't eat enough, this good wild vegetable soup, because they didn't drink much because of the hot mouth, they were waiting for a cold and then savoring it, but they all fell on the wall.
I shook my head, in fact, my own stomach was growling, but I still tried to appease everyone's feelings, and persuaded them to endure and find a way tomorrow.
The fat brother said angrily: "It's just this broken wall, how can the stone still catch fire, is this mountain made of coal?" Coal can't burn so fast, is it leaking oil? ”
Yan Qiu also wondered: "Yes, why is there a good mountain?" Who chose the location for this campfire? It's not long-sighted. ”
I know they're talking nonsense, but it's really strange how the rocks catch fire. I glanced at the unicorn with my eyes, which means to tell everyone that he set up the bonfire, firstly, in order to shirk responsibility in the form of a joke and ease the atmosphere, and more importantly, let the unicorn find out the reason.
Seeing that we were all no longer talking, the one horn stood up again, walked again to the wall, and lay down on it to look carefully, as if he had seen some doorway. After studying for a long time, he finally stood up, took a step back, and then kicked it hard against the wall.
I thought he couldn't find the reason, and he was venting in anger, but I didn't expect that the mountain wall was shaken by him when he went down at the foot of the unicorn. Just look at the originally smooth mountain wall, the place that was blackened by the fire, after a single kick, it actually sank in, leaving a dark gap.
A few of us were shocked, and we quickly got up and ran to the position where the unicorn was standing, and found out.
Only then did we realize that it was not a stone mountain at all, and that we were at the door of a large gate. The gate was made of wood, and we lit a fire next to the wooden door, which of course was going to cause a fire. And this gate is obviously old, otherwise it would not be tightly covered by vines, and with the floating soil on it, we thought it was a mountain wall.
Now the question is, where is the bottom of the door? Ancient tombs? The Hermit's Lair? There wouldn't be vampires living in it, would it? No matter how you look at it, there is a trace of weirdness and mystery in that black gap.
Everyone watched for a long time and understood the truth, but no one spoke.
The unicorn asked first, "This can't be the place you're looking for, is it?" ”
We all shook our heads, indicating that it shouldn't be.
In fact, where is our destination, we don't know the bottom of our hearts, at first we were looking for the whirlpool, and then we entered the whirlpool and looked for the water source, and now the water source is half found, and there is such a gate, who knows where it is?
Jiang Li spoke: "Then should we go in first to have a look?" ”
Who dares to enter this? What if you go in and find that it's a grave, and it's a big night, and you can't go to the village and the back of the store, and you can't let people live? If three or five more big zongzi pop up, wouldn't that kill people?
I shook my head like a rattle, and said, "Let's stay in another place, and we'll study it again tomorrow during the day, and whoever likes to go in now, I won't go in." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, the unicorn took it upon himself to hold the little spark that was left, and squeezed in through the dark door. In an instant, it was pitch black all around us, and the only light was in that door.
After a minute, there was no movement inside, and Su Rina followed in, after all, she had to keep an eye on the unicorn all the time, and not be run away or calculated by the unicorn.
followed by Jiang Li, then Yan Qiu, and finally the fat brother looked at me and walked in.
Originally, I felt the safest outside, but now the light has entered the door, but I feel that the place with light is safer, plus everyone has gone in, and now I am the only one left outside the door, which seems to make me feel that it is the most unsafe outside, my heart is pounding, and finally I closed my eyes and followed in.
When I opened my eyes again, I found that there was a very large space behind the door, and it looked like a large square inside, and because it was very dark, I couldn't see the roof.
I took a closer look, and the others were still there, with the one-horn walking in front with a torch, and the rest following him.
The only thing I could feel was the ground beneath my feet, a solid ground made of cement. This makes me more down-to-earth, you must know that the cement floor must be a modern building, no matter how old it is, it will not be linked to the ancient tomb or anything, but who built such a building in this mountain? What is it for? I won't be able to guess for a while.
As the unicorn slowly deepened, it began to darken behind us, I was afraid that there would be an emergency and I couldn't get out, so I tried to remember the direction we came in, and then quickened my pace to follow the fire, but after a while I turned, and there was real darkness all around, and no moonlight shone in, and the only thing I could discern the direction was the torch in the unicorn's hand.
Suddenly, the one-horned torch stopped, and I guess I had reached the end, so I thought I would hurry over and ask him if he had found anything.
In the light of the fire, I could see that several other people had arrived before me, all of them standing still around the torches, and they could be faintly seen in the firelight.
I tried the path under my feet, careful not to fall into the ditch, and moved slowly to them. Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask what he had found, he saw several other people standing there, without saying a word, around the torch that was dangling with flames.
The torch seemed to have been stuck between the two wooden boxes, and the horn was now gone.
This unforeseen result immediately pushed me to the brink of collapse, and the expressions of the others, like me, were all horrified by disbelief.
Where did the unicorn go? A fear that could not find its root instantly filled every nerve in me.
