Suddenly, Feng Ghost looked at the incense for a while. The burning was normal, so he nodded reassuringly, his expression calmed down, and he carried the bag down the crack first.

The entrance to this crack is silt, and when the person goes down, the silt is all rubbed on the body, Feng Ghost starts with his hand in front, and the tofu follows, and I pad behind. When both of them went down to the crack, I looked down and could only see the top of Tofu's head, which was completely covered in mud, like a moving clay figure.

I followed closely behind, and was about to go down the crack, when I inadvertently glanced at the incense at the crack, and couldn't help but be stunned. There were five incense sticks in total, and they were burning well just now, but now for some reason, three of them were extinguished, and the other two were still burning, and in an instant they became three long and two short.

I thought it was superstition, but I didn't think that this incense could really be burned into this shape, and I couldn't help but be secretly shocked: people are unlucky, they really drink cold water and stuff their teeth, how can anything be encountered by me, could it be that the curse is at work again? In fact, I myself have not much fear of this curse, I have always fed alone, and the whole family is not hungry, even if the curse really cannot be solved, it will not cost me my life.

What worries me is that this curse will harm the people around me, just like my grandfather back then, who is fine himself, but his relatives, friends, wife and children have accidents one after another.

Thinking of this, my heart is a little heavy, if I say that the people around me who are closer to me now are only tofu. No, I can't let anything happen to him.

At this time, the shout of tofu came from under the crack: "Lao Chen, what are you rubbing?" ”

At this moment, it is difficult to ride a tiger, although this incense is weird, but it can't be abandoned halfway because of a stick of incense, so I went down the crack, and I didn't mention it to the two, and now I say this, it will only confuse people's hearts.

This crack is washed by the spring water all year round, and the surface is very slippery, and if it were not for the abrupt rocks inside, if you are not careful, you will slip down. The three of us went down silently, and no one said a word, and went straight down for about twenty meters, and then looked up again, the crooked and inclined cracks were invisible to even the sky, and only the hideous wet stones were left above our heads.

Soon, Feng Ghost Hands below said that it was time for me and Tofu to stop first. The place was so narrow that I couldn't see anything but Tofu's head when I looked down. At this time, I heard a pop, as if something was entering the water, and then the voice of the Feng ghost hand sounded: "Jump down." ”

Jump?

Tofu jumped down to make room for me to see the environment below, at the bottom of the crack, there was still about seven or eight meters high, and below it was all water, and it was pitch black. Feng Ghost and Tofu soaked in water, and the two responded with flashlights. I jumped down after that, and I felt that the 30-meter-deep underground water was so cold that it didn't feel like summer at all.

I pulled out the headlamp in my bag and put it on my head, and the thick lamppost projected out, dispelling the darkness around me. Only then did we realize that we were actually in an underground river, with black and damp stone walls above and around us, and there was no place to land around.

The situation is very different from the previous judgment of the three of us, we previously judged that under the crack, there should be a burial chamber, and the burial chamber is likely to be damaged by groundwater, so there will be a burial corpse washed out before. But now that I look around, it's clear that this is a cave formed by groundwater erosion, not a burial chamber at all.

Feng Ghost scolded secretly and said, "It seems that this groundwater is very large, and the tomb should be around, let's swim forward and find it." "After being reminded by Ghost Feng, I noticed that something was wrong. The groundwater here does not flow at all, as if it were a pool of stagnant water.

At this moment, Tofu said, "Listen, what is this sound?" He was timid, so he paid special attention to the movements around him, and as soon as Tofu said this, Feng Ghost and I couldn't help but listen, and in the dark and empty cave, we only heard a sound like drinking water, faintly sounding, and I couldn't judge the specific direction.

I have good ears, and I used to hunt rabbits and pheasants in the mountains, all with a good pair of ears. After listening carefully for a while, we found out the direction of the sound, which came from the stone wall on our right, but the sound came from under the water, so it was faint and difficult to distinguish.

I told them both about my findings, and then pointed to the approximate location. Feng Ghost was very cautious, grabbed the hand of King Kong and moved it, then plunged into the bottom of the water, and swam up in less than a minute, saying: "There is a water hole on the stone wall, and the water here is flowing into the water hole, and it should soon dry up." ”

Speaking of this, Ghost Feng explained to us with a happy face: "I understand. Behind the cave is the real underground river, and when the river rises, the water gushes from the hole to this position, and when the river falls, the water is pumped back. If I'm not mistaken, we're already in the tomb. ”

Tofu doesn't know how to do it, but I'm not a person who doesn't know how to do it, and I feel when I hear what he says. I haven't really seen any large tombs, but the specifications of the tombs are clear. The environment we are in now is like a naturally formed water hole, how can it be a burial chamber?

Feng Ghost Hand didn't explain much about this, just asked us to wait quietly. After soaking in the water for more than half an hour, the bones of me and the tofu bubble were stiff, and the water here was finally exhausted, and the water hole was exposed.

It was a big hole that could accommodate two people in and out, and the entrance and interior of the cave were very smooth by the current, and I climbed into it to take a look, only to see that behind the hole, there was a large underground river with a drop of about ten meters. Crawling at the entrance of the cave, with the searchlight overhead, I saw the groundwater rolling white waves, gushing from the darkness, the sound of the water was deafening, like ten thousand horses galloping, and the momentum was extraordinary.

It seems that what we expected was good, there is an underground river at this end, and the place where we jumped down just now should be the location of the ancient tomb. It seems that at the beginning of the construction of this Princess Geger, it was built according to the form and structure of the underground, so there was such a large water hole.

I exited the cave, and where I was before, there was only a shallow layer of water below the instep of the ground, and there were rocks on both sides, and there was no way back, and the only way to go was ahead. If the three of them also came here, then the only passage was in front of them. The three of us didn't say much, Feng Ghost took the lead, Tofu walked in the middle, I cushioned behind, and the three of us each wore headlamps to observe the surrounding environment in case anything happened.

Digging mushrooms is a dangerous profession, and there are three sources of danger. The first is insects and snakes, because the ancient tombs are dry and comfortable, and they are very old, and it is easy to become a gathering place for some insects, snakes, foxes, and badgers.

The second is the danger from the organs, China's funeral culture is long, anti-theft organs emerge in an endless stream, and tomb robbers who do not have two brushes are easy to die under various organs. The third type comes from people, when Bai Laosi first ate his companions, and then for his own interests, he passed the curse on to his apprentice Chen Siyuan, these tomb robbers who did anything for the sake of profit, their temperament can be seen in general.

This surnamed Feng is a veteran at first glance, and he is very scheming, for such a person, he can't say that he hates or doesn't hate it, in short, he can't be trusted, his own safety, or pay attention to himself. The three of us walked all the way, the level of the cave gradually rose, and we could vaguely see a lot of black things at the end, and as the distance closed, there was a foul smell.

The three of us could already guess what it was just by smelling it. Not surprisingly, what is piled up there is probably the corpses of the martyrs that were washed out of the groundwater earlier. Sure enough, a little further on, the pile of black things was revealed before our eyes. It was a scene that I saw in the lake before, but now these corpses of the martyrs are all wet and gathered in one place, and it is another scene.

The road ahead of us is littered with such corpses. Perhaps due to the feng shui climate here, none of these corpses completely decomposed, but formed something like dried corpses. Due to the impact of the water, many corpses seemed to have been stirred by the washing machine, either missing arms or broken legs, and the dried flesh on their bodies hung wet on their bones.

As far as the eye can see, countless stumps are drenched and piled up, and the black water is flowing and the stench is unstoppable, completely blocking the road in front of us, and if we want to get there, we can only walk through these corpses.
