Chapter Twenty-Six: The Cliffs
Although Wen Min's voice was low, in this quiet cave, everyone heard it clearly.
It's a pity that we can't understand Japanese at all, so we don't know what the Japanese woman said when she was dying, but at this moment, her dead face, with a frightened look, stared at the mute without blinking, not to mention how terrifying it was.
And at this moment, the dumb man stayed in place, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, his hands, involuntarily held the two black scimitars on his waist, I could see that although the dumb man could not see any clues on the surface, but there must have been something changed in his heart, he was nervous, and very excited.
What exactly did the Japanese woman say to him?
Why, is she so afraid of mutes? Or even scared to death alive?
Don't...... Has she ever seen a mute?
I suddenly felt that something was wrong, the dumb man was obviously coming to the tomb of the Giant Ear King for the first time, how could a Japanese woman recognize him? Could it be that she mistook the mute for someone else? I immediately thought of the pleading.
Could it be that Japanese women are not afraid of muteness, but of clichΓ©s?
But I don't think it's right, Chen Ci came to the tomb of the Giant Ear King more than 20 years ago, could it be that this woman has lived here for more than 20 years? I looked closely at her face, and because of her thin skin, we couldn't tell her age from the outside.
At this moment, the mute was obviously greatly stimulated, his dark eyes suddenly closed, and the whole person took two steps back and sat at the entrance of the cave, his back against the stone wall, his hand still tightly holding the black scimitar, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this moment, although I have doubts in my heart, I don't have much energy to pay attention to the dumb man, at this moment, the only thing I think about is tofu, is he dead or alive? Was it cleaned up by those strange birds, or was it taken away by the white chicken?
At this moment, I can only hope for the latter, although the white chicken is sinister, but at least he can survive.
The dumb man's subordinates didn't speak, after all, they were only sent by Bai Sanye to assist the mute, so they weren't too active. On the contrary, Zhong Gong and the others, knowing the significance of this tomb of the Giant Ear King to me, discussed: "Let's find the whereabouts of Brother Dou first, and then find a way to cross this iron rope." β
Wen Min said: "Before, these strange birds were startled by the sound, and the next time we pass, as long as we don't make a loud noise, there should be no problem." Now the key is the azuki bean...... Where will he go? β
"There are only two possibilities," he said, "one is that they retreated to the cave at that time, and if so, then we have to go back and find it; The second is that they had an accident and went to the bottom of the cliff. β
"At the bottom of the cliff?" Wen Min muttered, his expression changed slightly, if he went to the bottom of the cliff, then the matter would be tricky.
In order to prove these two inferences, we decided to go back first to look for clues, and in the process, the mute and his people did not say anything, so only Wen Min and my men and I began to walk back. I didn't walk a few steps, I found that Feng Ghost Hand also followed, I was a little surprised, Feng Ghost Hand touched my gaze, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Although your fart is noisy and annoying, if you really die, it's a pity." β
For this, I can only smile bitterly and thank you. Our group walked back down the cave, observing our surroundings to see if we could find any clues, but until the first entrance, standing in front of the large stone monument, we could not find any trace of people, not even a trace of blood.
Feng Ghost Shou frowned slightly and said; "Did you really fall to the bottom of the cliff, if you don't fall to your death, you will be torn apart by those strange birds."
Zhong Gong sighed: "What kind of birds are those, so fierce? β
Everyone was considered well-informed, but they shook their heads, obviously no one knew. Wen Min said: "Could it be that the ancients cultivated the tomb protectors?" Donkeys and horses become mules, this kind of thing is not uncommon. β
Zhen Rui shook his head slightly, and said that there is no point in talking about this now, the three of Tofu don't seem to have gone back, and now it seems that the second chapter is the most likely, and they are likely to fall off the cliff. When I think of the misty cliff bottom, and the strange birds that rise up, I feel a tingling of my scalp, if this is the case, can the tofu still have a life?
Immediately afterward, she asked me what I was going to do.
How could I just give up, so I said that I want to see people in life, and see corpses in the dead, and go down to the bottom of the cliff to find people. Wen Min immediately nodded in agreement, and Ghost Feng poured cold water on us and said, "Go down there, you are tantamount to looking for death." β
I glanced at him and said, "I thank you for your willingness to accompany us back to find someone, but the rest is my own business." β
Zhen Rui was still lukewarm, looking very steady, and said: "Before I see the corpse, everything is unknown, save people as soon as possible, let's go." "We started walking back again and decided to go down to the bottom of the cliff. When we returned to the exit, we found that the mute and the others were gone, and the only thing left was the body of the Japanese woman.
I stared at her frightened face, and then at the fog across the cliff, feeling a little dazed.
Wu Shui, what is your true identity?
Feng Ghost scolded his mother in his mouth, probably he didn't expect the dumb man to go so simply, and he was very annoyed. Wen Min asked him while packing up the ropes, "Now that you're alone, what are you going to do?" Come with us, or go it alone? β
Although Feng Ghost Hands's attainments in the mechanism are powerful, his skills are not very powerful, he can only be regarded as having a good body, and then he is more flexible, in addition, he is not much better than ordinary people. It's really choking enough to let him act alone.
Zhong Gong glanced at him and said, "If you are here to touch the Ming Weapon, this cave is full of it, I see that you still have something with you, go by yourself, don't take this risk in vain." β
I asked Feng Ghost Shou why he was willing to follow Lu Su to such a dangerous place, and his answer was ambiguous, very arrogant, what did he say, there was no concern about it, there was no fight in the world that he couldn't go. In my opinion, this is pure, and only those 'green faces' who have never seen the world dare to make such nonsense. But if there are two brushes and know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, who dares to boast about this seaport?
Feng Ghost Hand is not a blue face, so this is very fake when he hears it.
After Zhong Gong finished speaking at this time, Ghost Feng's expression revealed a trace of hesitation, obviously, he had already begun to see the power of the Giant Ear King's Tomb, we had just entered the door, and we hadn't even seen the entrance to the underground palace, and we were already dead and missing. The man who built the tomb of the Giant Ear King, his methods cannot be measured by common sense, and it is a huge challenge for us veterans of the inverted fight. But this challenge is not a game, and if you lose, you will die.
Taking advantage of the time when Feng Ghost Hand was struggling, we set up a rope, and the rope of more than forty meters hung straight down the cliff and fell into the clouds and mist, Feng Ghost Hand stood on the side and looked at us, with no intention of joining, I nodded to him to say goodbye. Zhen Rui was probably worried that Feng Ghost's hands would be broken, so he left his two subordinates behind to respond, and then, I, Wen Min, Zhen Rui, and Zhong Gong began to follow the rope and go down the cliff.
This time, we didn't dare to make a loud noise, we wore gloves on our hands, and dragged the rope to slide slowly, and gradually, we passed through the iron rope and fell into the white mist, and when we looked up, we could no longer see the cave and the three people standing at the mouth of the cave.
We didn't know how deep the cliff was, and we couldn't see the bottom until the end of the rope. I'm a little chilled, it's so high, if you fall, the chance of survival is almost zero. I can only keep doing all kinds of psychological construction for myself to keep myself from collapsing.
Zhen Rui took out the spare rope and threw it to me, signaling me to fix the spare rope on the cliff, and after a while, I fixed the rope, and everyone continued to go down, these two ropes add up, it is more than eighty meters, if we can't get to the end, we really have no other way.
However, just as I was about to continue down, suddenly, I suddenly found that on the bottom of the cliff wall, there was a figure lying on his stomach, and the figure was like a gecko, rushing out of the white mist and gradually coming towards us. As the distance narrowed, I was suddenly shocked, isn't this Fat Li?
But this fat man Li is different from the fat man we saw before, his 'prototype' is revealed, the blue and purple, as if it is about to rot the skin, and the hand that is deeply gripping the cliff, the weird posture of sticking to the cliff, makes people shudder.
I know that the Messenger only appears when he is extremely weak.
As soon as he came to us, he said hoarsely, "Save people...... They were swept away. β
Swept away?
What's going on?
I noticed that Fat Li was talking about them, not him, which shows that our speculation is valid, and the tofu is really with the white chopped chicken.
Without waiting for me to ask, Li Fatzi began to retreat, the four of us hung in the air, and did not dare to delay any longer, carefully slid down, about 20 meters, and saw the bottom, only to find that the bottom of the cliff was a pool of turquoise, bottomless lake.
And at this moment, in this lake, there are big fish, each of which is more than half a meter long, with their heads as if they are wearing armor, and they are swimming to reveal Sensen's sharp teeth.
PS: A new week has begun, I hope you all have good luck~~~
