Chapter Ninety-Six: Falling into the Abyss
I took out the burial jade, but hesitated for a moment, for if I agreed, it would be tantamount to sending Ansari to a dead end.
But if I don't agree, there will be many more lives here that will be cut off.
Ansari suddenly smiled and patted me on the shoulder, his breath still weak, but his hands still strong.
He said to me, "Don't dwell on it, I didn't say it, if you get down there, you will definitely die, what are you worried about?" ā
As he spoke, he suddenly winked at me, and there was a hint of mystery in his gaze.
I was stunned again, yes, he never said that he would die if he continued, but now that he is highly poisoned, how can he survive if he has to go to such a dangerous place?
No one around them spoke, because no one could open their mouths to agree with another person to sacrifice themselves and save everyone's lives.
Lao Pan patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's up to you to decide, but what I want to say is that in fact, we can also go down." ā
I was shocked, looked up at Lao Pan, he also smiled at me, there was no fear of death in his eyes, and Da Kui next to him shouted: "Isn't it the ten thousand corpse graves, it just so happens that I didn't have time to go down with this Lu and Lu seniors just now, I still want to go down to see what the dragon looks like." ā
Zhang Ye also stood up and said coldly: "Let's come here, thanks to Brother An all the way, you must go, I will accompany you." ā
Ah Sheng also said: "Yes, Pan Ye, you just take things with you, and none of us will be ambiguous." ā
I looked at them, and suddenly my heart choked on something, and Ansari shook her head and said, "None of you need to say more, the great shaman is my ancestor, and this can only be done by me." ā
Lu Haikong also stepped forward and said: "Yes, shut up, he is the descendant of the Great Shaman, and what flows on his body is different from your blood, this matter, let him go." ā
I was slightly stunned, Lu Haikong took the burial jade from my hand, only glanced at it, and said, "This thing seems to be very similar to that Fulong jade." ā
Ansari then took it, held the burial jade in his hand, took out a single drum from his bag, handed it to me, and said, "This divine drum must be handed over to the Great Elder of Shenlongzhai, because only this can bring back Ah Li's soul and save her life." ā
I wondered, "You, what is your relationship with Shenlong Village?" ā
Ansari smiled at me and said, "What Senior Lu said just now, maybe you don't understand, I can tell you that half of the blood flowing in my body is from Shenlong Village." ā
After he said this, a trace of blood suddenly appeared on his pale and gray face, and he turned around and carefully picked up the body of the great shaman on the altar, and strode towards the outside of the stone room.
He was very poisonous, holding the body of the great shaman, his steps were a little staggering, we hurriedly stepped forward, and also walked to the cliff, but he did not want us to help, insisted on holding the body of the great shaman, to the edge of the cliff.
At this time, the cave was still shaking, countless bones were scattered in the ten thousand corpse mounds, and the faint blue fire covered the bottom of the abyss, Ansari tied the body of the great shaman to the rope before, tied himself again, and nodded to us: "Everyone help, you can put me down." ā
We are all silent, all of them are very ugly on their faces, although Ansari is not likable along the way, cold and arrogant, but he is indispensable to help at every critical moment, although we don't communicate much, but the love of birth and death together has taken root in my heart.
Zhang Ye gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and slowly lowered the rope, and the bodies of Ansari and the Great Shaman gradually lowered in our eyes, slowly sinking into the grave of ten thousand corpses.
Ansari's face gradually blurred, and tears almost welled up in my eyes, this scene was like sending his comrades and brothers to death with his own hands.
Ansari was in mid-air, but suddenly laughed and shouted: "Brother Xiaoye, your flying knife is good, but every time you take out the knife, you always have to focus on a certain part of the opponent first, so that it is easy to be detected in advance, practice your intuition more in the future, if you can hit the target with your eyes closed, then you are invincible, hahahaha......"
This is the first time he laughed out loud in front of us, Zhang Ye's fists rattled, he pursed his lips, nodded heavily, and suddenly shouted: "When that time comes, let's compete again, I want to see if you can catch my knife again!" ā
Ansari's figure gradually disappeared into the abyss, Zhang Ye suddenly took out his gun, and a flare shot out, and the darkness was suddenly bright, at this moment we all saw that at the bottom of the ten thousand corpse mounds, the dragon bone had collapsed, the stone platform had fallen, the giant tripod had been crooked, and under the stone platform, a huge deep hole was revealed, and the entire ten thousand corpse mounds continued to fall.
Almost at the same time, a sudden burst of water burst out of the cavern, pouring into the mound of corpses like a waterfall torrent.
My heart sank, and at that moment a figure suddenly rushed out, screaming and rushing down the cliff, and rushed straight at Ansari.
I was immediately shocked, and everyone exclaimed in unison, this person was actually the old fish, only to hear him shout like crazy: "No one wants to escape, I want you all to die here, all die here, Shenlong, Shenlong is about to come out, hahaha, Shenlong is born, no one wants to take away the treasures here, all die, all die......"
He seemed to be mad, and he saw that his body was falling sharply, and he was about to collide with Ansari!
Zhang Ye roared like a beast, obviously really angry, and reached out to grab a flying knife and was about to throw it, but at this moment, the light of the flare, boom, went out.
Damn, after this brief moment of light, the surroundings were plunged into darkness again, and under the abyss, only the wild laughter of the old fish could be heard in the distance.
Zhang Ye grabbed the flying knife in his hand, his body trembled slightly, but he only hesitated for a moment, and then immediately threw the flying knife out of his hand, only to see a glimmer of light shoot into the abyss, and disappear in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, the laughter of the old fish and the figure of Ansari disappeared.
We stood together on the edge of the cliff, and I hurriedly shouted at Zhang Ye, "Flares, get another flare." ā
Zhang Ye shook his head: "No, it was the last ...... just now."
I was dumbfounded, and said hurriedly: "What about the incendiary bombs, who has them, who still has them?" ā
Several people shook their heads silently at the same time, obviously, everyone had run out of ammunition and food.
Lao Pan suddenly said to us: "Brother An, let's do it, don't be in a daze, you don't know what will happen later, find a way to get out of here." ā
But that's easy to say, if we can figure out a way to leave, do we have to work so hard?
Everyone once again focused on Lu Haikong, and at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the other side.
"IāI seem to know where to leave ......"
We hurriedly turned to look, he looked at us hesitantly, as if he was a little afraid of land, sea and air, and said, "I have heard the old poisonous snake say that on the pillar of heaven, there is a way out......
"The Pillars of Heaven?" Several of us exclaimed in unison, and glanced at each other again, Lu Haikong's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the old dog Yan, there seemed to be murderous intent in his eyes, and he said word for word: "Why didn't you say it just now?" ā
Yan Laogou took a step back and said, "I, I also just remembered it......"
"Okay, in that case, you can lead the way." Lu Haikong waved his hand, time was running out, I finally glanced back at the grave of ten thousand corpses in the darkness, gritted my teeth, turned around and ran into the altar stone room with everyone.
In the stone room, the lanterns on the four walls flickered dimly, and the altar was empty, and I thought of Ansari who had sunk into the grave with the body of the great shaman, and secretly clenched my fists.
Ah Sheng has been silent for a long time, and the injury on his head is still not light, but when he ran to the altar, it may be his professional habit as a scientist, but he walked to the altar and observed around for a while, but he didn't know what he found, and suddenly called Lao Pan, and the two got together, squatted down, and didn't know what to study there.
I was curious, and was about to go over to check, when I saw that the two of them had already stood up and jumped off the altar, and vaguely, I seemed to see Lao Pan quickly carrying something into his arms.
"Everyone, keep up, quick!"
Lu Haikong didn't seem to pay attention to this, he and Yan Laogou had already walked to the secret passage in the corner of the stone room, Da Kui was the first to climb up, Yan Laogou followed, Lu Haikong stood next to the secret passage, beckoning to us again and again.
"Let's go, don't stand stupidly, it's like the pillar that leads to the outside world can really lead to the outside world, and we can go out."
Lao Pan slapped me, and then I reacted, glanced at him, didn't say anything, and turned around and got into the secret passage.
