We rushed over to take a look, and immediately felt a little incredible, because we clearly saw that there was an artificially dug passage on the inside of the diagonal opposite mountain wall, and in the aisle was a neat stone staircase, which gradually extended downward.

The strange thing is that the walls on both sides of the aisle are full of various reliefs, many of which are exactly the same as the murals we saw in the oblique palace in front. I had an ominous premonition in my heart that something was going to happen next.

The group couldn't take any more time to rest, so they immediately turned back and got their backpacks and equipment, which should be a major discovery, and the end of the aisle may be the burial chamber we are looking for.

The aisle was built no less than a few hundred years ago, and it was covered with moss and dirt, and it would slip after two steps, so we had to support each other and walk with extreme care every step.

In addition, Professor Wu is worried about what traps he will step on, so let's pay extra attention to it, and if we notice something wrong with the steps under our feet, we should quickly notify others to avoid it.

In this way, our nerves tightened even more, and we didn't take a few steps before we were panting in a panic, but Han Sen was calm and took the initiative to lead the way for everyone in front.

In the wilderness, psychological quality is the most important, and good skills may not necessarily work, people like Han Sen, who often survive in the wild, have long developed excellent psychological quality, so they can calmly face any seemingly dangerous situation.

After walking for a long time, a curve finally appeared in front of me, and according to my estimate, the front was almost the end, but at this time, an unexpected situation suddenly happened.

Just when everyone didn't pay attention, a few things that looked like lynxes suddenly burst out of the aisle.

We were all taken aback, because these guys, who looked like cats and tigers, were very frightening at first glance, and their gloomy gaze, their strange long beards, and the sharp nails on their thick claws, made people shudder at the sight.

However, according to common sense, lynx animals are basically not found on islands, especially in hot climates, they simply cannot adapt to them.

If I think about it carefully, I think these may not be ordinary lynxes, if the estimate is correct, nine times out of ten, they are the tamers trained by the Guigumen to guard the cemetery, because we have already seen those red-haired beasts outside, so there is a basis for thinking so.

But I saw that Professor Wu's face instantly became very flustered, and he said with some trepidation: "Don't move, these things are civet cats, if we are entangled by them, we don't want to leave here alive today." ”

I was surprised and asked, "Raccoon?" What is this thing? I don't think they're any different from lynxes. ”

Professor Wu shouted at me, "What do you know! The civet cat is a corpse, and it survives by eating corpse oil, I have seen these things in the ancient tombs of Xianyang, and I must not have a head-on conflict with them, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

We stood on the steps in horror and watched the civets circling around us, and they walked slowly about as if admiring their prey, with a hint of coldness and inscrutable cunning in their eyes.

Uncle Long cautiously asked Professor Wu, "Isn't there any way for us to get out?" Aren't we standing here waiting to die, what if they attack us? ”

Professor Wu replied: "There is a precedent that if you encounter a civet cat and don't use tribute to lure them away, you must not act rashly, otherwise you will be besieged." ”

Uncle Long said strangely: "Is there such a thing? Then let's hurry up and get some tribute, isn't it just food, I still have some in my bag. As he spoke, he was going to rummage through his bag and dig out something.

Professor Wu waved his hand and said coldly: "It's useless, the tribute they want is a dead corpse......

Everyone's expressions stiffened all of a sudden, and they couldn't have imagined that these civet cats were so terrifying.

Jin Hu quietly took out the machete, as if he was preparing to fight to the death, I don't know why the civet cat left such a deep impression on him in Professor Wu's eyes, but what he said was definitely not a joke, so I quickly held down Jin Hu to prevent him from acting rashly.

In addition to the missing Qin Xuanling, Jin Hu has the courage to fight for his life at a critical moment.

Those tanuki jumped up and down among us, and their bodies were very alert, and from time to time they would look at you with strange little eyes, which made us feel at a loss.

Just when everyone was almost about to collapse, there was a flute sound in the tunnel, crisp and loud, and in the blink of an eye, those civet cats quickly lined up in a row and squatted in the aisle as if they were standing in a military posture.

I didn't see anyone nearby, and I wondered what was going on, could there be anyone who could travel thousands of miles?

But upon closer inspection, I was surprised to see that there were many hand-hewn holes in the wall on the left side of the aisle, almost as wide as an adult's shoulder, and in one of the highest holes, a head was slowly sticking out.

Looking at the head sticking out again, it seems to be very familiar, as if it has been seen somewhere.

I tried to remember for a long time, and suddenly reacted, isn't this Qin Xuanling?

I immediately shouted excitedly: "Lao Qin, why are you here, where have you been during this time?" ”

Everyone looked up one after another when they heard this, and they were also shocked to see Qin Xuanling coming out of the hole.

Qin Xuanling jumped down from the hole, stood in front of everyone with a flute in his hand, and said with a radiant expression: "I've been waiting for you here for a long time. ”

We looked at each other and couldn't figure out what he meant, could it be that he had expected us to come here?

I asked him, "Old Qin, how did you get here, and how did you know we were coming?" ”

Qin Xuanling said a little mysteriously: "I can't explain it to you for a while, let's talk about it later, in short, I will always show you the way in the future." ”

Professor Wu answered: "So you have already explored the way for us?" What goes down from here? ”

Qin Xuanling said: "I went down once, but I encountered some trouble down there, and I still need your help, so I'm waiting for you here." ”

I don't think it's a little strange that he's been disappearing for a long time, and now he just comes out of nowhere and says he's going to show us the way, is this something he planned in advance, or is there some other reason?

Professor Wu and I wanted to ask a few more questions, but Qin Xuanling directly interrupted us, and said a little urgently: "It's too late, we need to hurry down, and other things will be talked about later." ”

We had no choice but to give up, and with his personality he was seldom impatient, it seemed that the problem he was waiting for us to solve must be important.

Everyone sorted out their emotions and just wanted to set off, but when they looked ahead, those civet cats were still squatting in place, and they were suddenly frightened and took several steps back.

The amazing thing is that Qin Xuanling stepped forward and waved his hand, and those civet cats immediately walked away, and then disappeared into the depths of the aisle.

We were all stunned, and Jin Hu said dumbfoundedly: "Old Qin, what's going on?" Feelings: You called these things to stop us? ”

Qin Xuanling replied with a smile: "It's not as complicated as you think, they were originally the tomb keepers and beasts here, I just used some way to make them listen to me" said and raised the flute in his hand.

The golden tiger shrugged at me and pouted, "A cow man is a cow man!" ”

I suddenly remembered the dream I had in the underground space earlier, and suddenly realized that Qin Xuanling's life experience did not seem to be as simple as it seemed, and there should be many secrets behind this person.

I saw him walking in front of him in an orderly manner, his pace was very steady, as if he had a very thorough understanding of the environment here.

I was tempted to go up and ask him what was going on, but he didn't give me a chance, he just took us on his own.

I thought it would be the end of the curve, but there was still a long way to go, and it continued to go down, until the steps got steeper and steeper, almost in a straight line.

By the time we reached the end of our breathlessness, almost an hour had passed, and in the blink of an eye, we were presented with a spacious volcanic cave, a dark environment that revealed a little gloom, and we didn't know what to find here.

But after a closer look, I found that this cave is not simple, because the light was very dim when I first came down, and the flashlight has been obviously insufficient after a few days of consumption, so I can't see the surrounding situation clearly.

It wasn't until my eyes got used to the gloomy surroundings below that I realized that there was something else inside the cave.
