Chapter Seventy-Three: Dirt Cave Complex

The fat man and the fifth master went down to the bottom of the collapsed pit together, I was worried about their safety, thinking that they should not come down, and the fat man immediately replied: "It's not because I'm worried about you, I saw that you didn't reply for a long time, everyone thought you had an accident, so they came down together." ”

I looked at the fat man gratefully, and then told me what happened to the little fat man in black below, as well as some of my own thoughts, and asked them, "Why didn't Kun Ye come down?" ”

The fat man said angrily: "It's good that his timid rat didn't sneak away." ”

I said in my heart: Kunba's subordinates are also here, and if the fat man says this, if it reaches Kunba's ears, it is not conducive to the sincere unity of the team.

I secretly stabbed the fat man, and said with a smile: "Kun Ye is not cowardly, but stayed on it to direct everyone to pull us up, in order to ensure that we can get out of trouble safely." ”

Fifth Master Zha didn't care about these trivial matters, he was worried about the missing group of people, so he asked me, "Xiaowen, what do you think about this?" ”

I think that the matter has come to this point, and we must go into this deep passage under the cave to look for it, after all, the purpose of our trip is to find the missing few people, and the matter has no result, and we will not be able to go home.

I expressed my inner thoughts, and the fat man's thoughts have always been the same as mine, and they are all people-oriented.

The fifth master of Zha also has the same idea, and now he has to ask for the meaning of Kunba, who is still on it.

The fat man said, "You go up, I'll wait here, it's too troublesome to go back and forth." ”

I said to the black-clothed chubby, "You go up and explain the matter to your grandfather by the way." Tell him to come down with men. ”

As a result, the little fat man in black was unusual, shook his head and said, "I won't go up." And then he stuck to the fat man's side. Tag after.

Seeing this scene, I said in my heart: It is really like things gathered, people are divided by groups, how can this little fat man in black fall in love with a fat man. It's okay now, both of them can't insist on going up, and I'm embarrassed to bother the fifth master to go up, it seems that I can only be hung up by myself.

I tied the ropes. The fat man shouted to tell the people above to pull me up. As soon as I reached the ground, and before I could get used to the harsh sunlight above, I heard Kunba anxiously ask me, "How is it?" Who are they? ”

I sat on the ground. Shielding himself from the sun with his hands, he squinted at Kun Ba and said, "Master Kun, it seems that we have to go down." Then he went down to the cave and met Chubby, and told him back and forth.

Kun Hachi listened. His face immediately changed. It's like hearing very bad news, and it's very ugly.

I know he doesn't want to go down, it stands to reason that the craftsman of the inverted bucket is undoubtedly doing the business of licking blood on the tip of the knife, and the average person in the industry is all bold and dares to poke a hole in the sky. I didn't expect Kun Ye, who was ranked in the capital, to be so timid. He is not to blame, though. Being careful makes a 10,000-year-old ship, and being timid is not necessarily a bad thing.

Kunba squeaked silently. Looking at his attitude, I was a little unhappy, and I said: This time I came out to find your subordinates, you shit, we will help you wipe your buttocks, and you are reluctant to dislike the shit and stinky paper, which is not right.

My face sank, and I said in a not very good tone: "Kun Ye, your missing subordinates may be down there, whether to find them or not, this is your own business, you have the final say." "The meaning of my words could not be more obvious, your person is missing, and I have nothing to do with half a dime, you say to find, we will follow to help find it; If you say no, we'll flash back home immediately, anyway, it's not my person, I won't feel distressed at all.

Of course, Kunba could hear the meaning of my words, and he couldn't help but be in a dilemma. He is timid and afraid of death, and refuses to die for the people under him, but he is afraid that if he leaves this time, these subordinates around him will complain, and it will be difficult to convince the public in the future. He had no choice, gritted his teeth and said, "Go back and send a letter to the camp personally, and the others will go down with me to find someone." ”

When the people around heard this, they immediately raised their arms and shouted, and randomly chose someone to let him go back to deliver the letter.

I was a little worried about the person who went back to deliver the letter, and told him, "Don't get lost." Make a mark when you go back, and if you get lost, come back here and wait for us. The messenger was a tall, dark and thin man, and after nodding his head, everyone said goodbye, and then strode back.

When I turned around, I saw the reluctant envy on Kunpa's face, and I knew that his feet were holding back now and not following. I couldn't help but laugh in my heart: How did this timid Kunba get to this status today?

After sending off the messengers, they began to descend to the bottom of the cave one by one, and I stayed on the ground, telling them one by one how to go down and what to pay attention to. A group of people went down to the pit one after another, and finally, I and Kunba were left on the ground.

I saw Kun Ba squeezing his fingers at the mustache on the side above his lips, his fingers seemed to be trembling slightly, and he was still squeezing out a small smile to hide his extreme uneasiness.

I smiled and said to him, "How about Master Kun, are you always preparing for the queen of the palace?" ”

Kunba didn't think about it, and immediately replied to me, "Don't, let me go down first." ”

Looking at Kun Ba, who was slowly descending into the depths of darkness, a thought suddenly popped up in my heart, was it right or wrong for me to force him to choose to go down like this?

Who can guarantee that in the depths of this dark earth, there are no dangers beyond imagination?

Looking at Kunpa, who slowly descended and disappeared, my mood became very complicated and confused, and I suddenly lost my mind.

When I came back to my senses, I heard the people below shouting at me for a long time, so I hurriedly pulled the rope up, tied it to myself, and checked the lock stuck in the rock formation, and then began to slowly descend against the layers of bedrock walls.

When I landed at the bottom of the cave, and saw that everyone was gathered here, the fat man, while untying the ropes that had been in love with me, asked me very dissatisfied, "What's the matter with you?" I called you for a long time just now, but I didn't see you come down. I thought something was going on up there? ”

I was worried about the danger underground, but when I said it at this time, it was easy to add unnecessary worries to everyone, so I had to sloppy and say, "I went there just now." Then he quickly untied the rope from his body and said to everyone, "This rope is placed here, and it is necessary for us to get out of here later." ”

Everyone nodded "yes".

When we came out of the camp to look for someone, it was just dawn, and some of Kunba's men brought flashlights, which helped a lot in the dark underground. In order to save energy, more than a dozen of us, illuminated by only a flashlight, groped our way forward in a dark underground.

The cavern was large underneath, but the passage connecting it was not wide enough to allow three people to walk side by side.

The passage is oval in shape, the dirt walls on both sides are very wet, the ground is potholed, there is muddy sand everywhere, and there are even water droplets dripping from the top wall, which makes our clothes rub a lot of mud and sand.

The dark passage came to an end in a short time, and a very wide low-lying clearing appeared in front of it, and at the end there were three other narrow passages, but I didn't expect that there was a crossroads under the ground that extended in all directions. We stepped into the depression, and the muddy water in the depression immediately flooded our shoes.

I asked people to turn on other flashlights to light up the surroundings, and Kunba looked at the passageway in all directions and said, "Which one?" I don't see it safe when it's black. ”

When the fat man heard this, he immediately said sarcastically to him, "The safe road is behind you, please turn around." ”

Kunba smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.

The fifth master shone the flashlight on the ground, and then walked towards the entrance of a passage, and I quickly followed.

Walking into the narrow passage, I found that this place was different from the passage just now, the ground was all a lot of sand, much drier, and after walking a few steps, I found that there were very obvious traces of drag on the ground.

I walked in front with Fifth Master Cha, and I asked him, "Fifth brother, look at the traces on the ground, it doesn't look like the traces left by someone dragging a hemp bag." ”

Before Fifth Master Zha could speak, the crowd behind me had already begun to discuss, and I actually heard someone say to the person next to him, "Master Wen said, there are traces left by someone on the ground dragging a sack full of treasures." ”

I'm so angry and funny, when have I ever said something like that.

We walked slowly with our heads down, so as to see the marks on the ground, and after only a few moments of this slow pace, the passage came to an end, and I was stunned by what I saw. At the end of the passage we are in, there are countless pitch-black caves, large and small, and the caves are connected to each other, forming countless passages like an underground labyrinth, which makes people dizzy.

The fat man stood behind me, craned his neck and exclaimed, "What kind of place is this, how did you look like this?" ”

I didn't answer the fat man's question, because I was also amazed by the intricacies of the landscape before me.

The fifth master dipped his index finger in his mouth, then put his finger into the cave, and then said to us, "Let's go, turn back and see." ”

Hearing the words of the fifth master, the team immediately changed from the rear to the front, and everyone withdrew from this narrow passage and returned to the spacious depression.

The fifth master said to Kun Ba: "Master Kun, you take people to wait here." The three of us, Xiaowen and the fat man, went to check in the other passages. ”

Kunhachi immediately nodded in agreement, he must have felt safer staying in a crowded place.

The fat man and I followed the fifth master and checked the other three passages, but we were disappointed.

At the end of all the passages, there are dense caves that penetrate each other, and it seems that the underground here is a ring-shaped underground cave group. (To be continued......)
