Chapter 236: Who's More Scheming?
Under the dense fog on the water surface, this water hole under Fengling Mountain was full of mystery, so that Xu Tianchuan's hearts couldn't help but beat faster.
"Shopkeeper Xu, it should be there, right?"
Jiao San pointed to the water hole on the horizontal plane in front of him and exhaled in a low voice.
"Yes, it's the cave of the gods, and it is said that the river god lives in it......"
Mrs. Ma, who was paddling, nodded, took Jiao San's words, and at the same time increased the speed of the paddle.
The wooden boat carried four people, floated on the water and slid quickly, and it only took ten minutes to row to the entrance of the hole.
This should be a natural cave, the entrance of the cave is very large, it is estimated that it should be at least ten meters wide, half of which is under the water, so it presents a semicircular flat shape on the water surface, and the highest point is more than five meters.
In addition, after getting closer, Xu Tianchuan noticed that there was a thick layer of moss growing outside the cave entrance, and there were many traces of shellfish attached to it, so it can be seen that what Mrs. Ma said was right, the water level here is kept above the god cave all year round, and it will only be revealed when the water level drops to a certain extent.
Therefore, this shrine is immersed under the surface of the water for a longer time, and many shellfish are attached to the cave rocks under the perennial immersion of the river.
In a way, I was theoretically here at the right time.
If it rains heavily, or in two months, once the water level rises and floods the cave, then if you want to come in again, you will not need to take a ferry, but you will need to dive......
"Master Ma, how deep is this hole?"
Xu Tianchuan pretended to ask casually intentionally or unintentionally.
"How deep?"
Mrs. Ma, who was paddling, paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, no one has ever been to a deep place." ”
As he spoke, Mrs. Ma had rowed the wooden boat into the cave.
As soon as he entered this cave, Xu Tianchuan immediately felt that the air around him suddenly became cold, at least there was a temperature difference of more than ten degrees from the outside, as if he had suddenly drilled into the ice cave and arrived in another world.
And in this hole, there is still a ...... Yin Qi!
"Uncle, I feel like this cave ...... It's a bit of an evil door! ”
Not only Xu Tianchuan, but Xing Chang also felt that there was a yin qi in this cave, and it was also a very deep yin qi.
As he spoke, he turned on the miner's lamp that he had prepared in advance.
Jiao San also turned on the miner's lamp, and subconsciously searched around the cave, with caution and caution in the novelty.
The further you go inside, the darker the light becomes, and the more dead and gloomy the atmosphere becomes.
As for the evil sect that the punishment often says, this is very normal and completely reasonable.
Don't forget what you're here for, if you're not evil at all, you're here for sightseeing.
As the wooden boat continued to move deeper into the cavern, the light source gradually disappeared, and the darkness was completely enveloped.
Xing Chang and Jiao San took the miner's lamp in their hands and kept shining around.
At this time, Xu Tianchuan's night vision once again played a substantial role.
Even without the illumination of the miner's lamp, you can still see everything around, the river is very clear, but it is also very deep, and you can't see the bottom of the water at all.
However, it stands to reason that this is a cave that is half submerged by the river, and if the whole cave is circular, then the depth below is at most six or seven meters.
In addition, the further you go in, the larger the space inside, and it is expanding to both sides, when the light pillar of the miner's lamp shines on the water, the reflected waves are sparkling, and the rock walls of the cave refracted on both sides shake back and forth.
In addition, Xu Tianchuan also found that there are many strange-shaped holes and crevices on the rock walls of the caves on both sides, which do not look like they are naturally formed, but more like some kind of creature in the water to dig out of the cave, which is exposed as the water level drops.
"Shopkeeper Xu, do you think a water monster suddenly appeared in the river and grabbed our boat from below......
Jiao San subconsciously swallowed and spitted, holding the miner's lamp in one hand, and the other hand had already clenched his black gold ancient knife.
Under the reflection of the pillar of light, the black gold ancient knife emitted a cold light, which was also reflected on the water surface at his feet.
Jiao San has robbed the tomb for half his life, he has seen all kinds of tombs, as a professional Tufuzi, he has also experienced all kinds of scenes underground, but in this water, it is really the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair.
Therefore, excessive mental tension is definitely unavoidable.
Even Xing Chang's expression was equally cautious and dignified, and it could be seen that Xing Chang must have experienced this kind of scene for the first time.
"Hmm!"
Regarding Jiao San's concern, Xu Tianchuan nodded, and was vigilantly observing the surrounding water surface throughout the whole process.
Because as the wooden boat rowed into the depths of the cave, Xu Tianchuan already had a keen awareness of treachery and danger in his heart.
And this feeling is getting stronger and stronger in Xu Tianchuan's heart.
It's like a woman's sixth sense.
Generally speaking, what can make Xu Tianchuan feel that there is danger is definitely not a good place.
Whoa......
It was at this moment that suddenly there was a splash of water from the depths of the front, and the movement was not small, which instantly broke the atmosphere of the dead silence, and also scared everyone into a sudden spirit, and immediately turned his head to look at the location where the sound of water splashed just now, at this time, a ripple was rapidly spreading to this side, and the cave was still echoing with the aftersound of the sound of water.
"Don't panic, it's just a fish turning over the water!"
Xu Tianchuan squinted his eyes, but just now he saw a fish jumping out of the water, turning over a splash, and sinking quickly, it was not small, not to mention five or six pounds.
"Well, you don't have to be afraid, this god cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, so there are a lot of fish under the water, and they are all big fish for decades, especially in summer, the movement of the big fish turning flowers in this god cave is very big, and you can even hear it outside the cave."
Mrs. Ma, who was paddling behind him, looked at the slightly nervous expressions of the three of them, and couldn't help but laugh.
Listening to Mrs. Ma's words, it seems that he is indeed extremely familiar with this sacrificial cave.
But Xu Tianchuan looked at Mrs. Ma thoughtfully at this time, frowned slightly, and asked: "Master Ma, I see that you have been rowing the boat to the depths, it seems that you are very familiar with this God Sacrifice Cave, where are we going now?" I heard you say that whenever the river drops and the cave is revealed, the people in the vicinity will come here to worship the river god at close range, so I don't think there should be any danger or strange things here, right? ”
"Dangers and strange things?"
Master Ma shook his head directly, and said with a smile: "Where is there any danger and strange thing, we are all devout believers in the river god, and we also worship the river god, not to mention that there is no danger, even if there is really any danger, the river god will protect us, so for so many years, nothing dangerous has ever happened." ”
"About twenty meters further on, there is a stone monument, which is said to be the doppelganger left by the river god in the yang world, and it is also the closest place that we mortals can be lucky enough to be close to the river god."
Mrs. Ma pointed to the depths in front of the Shrine Cave, his smiling expression with seriousness and a kind of peace.
Stele?
Mrs. Ma's words once again aroused the curiosity in Xu Tianchuan's heart, so he acquiesced to Mr. Ma continuing to paddle and marched to a depth of about twenty meters into the depths of the God Sacrifice Cave.
What Ma Taiye said is indeed true, in the depths of the God Sacrifice Cave, about 20 meters deep, there is indeed a 'stone tablet' erected.
To be precise, it should be a huge special-shaped stalactite, just like a pillar, in the middle of the sacrificial cave, shaped like a monster with the body of a tiger, with no head on it, and the lower part is sunk to the bottom of the water, so you can only see the upper part of the water exposed.
But judging from this first half, it is really like what Mrs. Ma said, as if this is really the doppelganger of a 'river god' left in the yang world.
But Xu Tianchuan relied on his night vision eyes, and he could see at a glance that this special-shaped stalactite was not pure natural, although it was soaked in water for a long time, there were many shellfish attached to it, and a lot of moss grew on it, but Xu Tianchuan could still see that this stalactite had traces of artificial carving!
It is a man-made carving that makes this huge stalactite look like a doppelganger of the 'river god', and it is also carved according to the ghost god!
"Master Ma, this is what you said, the doppelganger of the river god left in the yang world?"
Jiao San frowned slightly, took the miner's lamp, and carefully shone it on the stalactites from top to bottom, feeling that this superstitious statement was really a bit too absurd, so he couldn't help but sneer a little when he spoke.
And Mrs. Ma didn't care too much about the ridicule mixed in Jiao San's words, and even turned his head to look at Jiao San and also smiled, but this smile was a little treacherous, and said: "That's right, although it is only a clone of the river god left in the yang world, it can still punish all mortals who are disrespectful to her!" ”
As he spoke, the expression on Mrs. Ma's face gradually changed, becoming a little weird and gloomy, as if he had completely changed a person after a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree transformation.
What's the situation?
Ghost upper body?
Looking at Mrs. Ma's suddenly changing face and expression, Xing Chang and Jiao San's subconscious spine was cold, and they had a strong sense of foreboding.
But only Xu Tianchuan was calm when he watched Mrs. Ma's face change at this time.
Xu Tianchuan looked at Mrs. Ma's disdainful sneer again: "As the old saying goes, ginger is still old and spicy, but your old ginger is really tender, don't you just want to bring us here?" Actually, you don't have to go to such a big time, as long as you say an accurate location, we will come over ourselves, originally I thought you could have the ability to directly lead us to find the ghost god, but I didn't expect to just bring it here to see a 'clone', it's really disappointed to me! ”
