Chapter 260: Mandrill
"The little monk has already rushed this way, and when the tide here recedes, he will almost arrive." Bai Xiaosheng didn't answer my previous question, and directly told me that Yuan Qingguang was about to arrive.
"Okay, there's finally good news, but our brothers and I worked hard with you, and in the end we didn't even know how to die, isn't this a bit wronged, don't you say it's too bad to cooperate like this." My tone was already a little impatient.
"Hehe, is this a temper?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with a mouthful of big yellow teeth.
I teased him, "You saved my life, I don't dare to have a temper, my gratitude is not repaid." ”
"Don't pretend to be confused, Gu Feng mentioned Guiguzi to you, can you not guess if you are so smart, you should already have a score in your heart." Bai Xiaosheng leaned on the railing, rubbed his forehead with his hand, looked at the mountains on both sides of the Grand Canyon and said, "Is it appropriate to bury people in this kind of place." ”
"Then you're looking for the wrong person, I have a friend you should be able to find him." I'm talking about Du San, and Du San specializes in this business.
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head, "No one else can replace you, and if we can meet you on the train, it can be regarded as our mutual fulfillment." ”
"You'll know what I mean when you get inside."
As we spoke, a loud "rumbling ......" sounded like a landslide.
All the people on the boat grabbed the railing at the same time, and the moment we grabbed the railing, the hull of the ship shook violently, and the amplitude was almost unstable, and the tilt reached almost 90 degrees. Despite this, the hull did not turn over in the end.
After the big waves, the water level began to slowly drop, and it was clear that it was low tide.
The tide had just gone down, and a small boat was speeding towards it. Soon, we were in front of our ship.
When the boat arrived, I saw Yuan Qingguang standing at the bow of the boat. The moment I saw Yuan Qingguang, the heart that had been hanging in my heart relaxed. Yuan Qingguang was very excited to see me, and he waved his hand hard towards me, "Brother Ping, Brother Ping......"
In addition to Yuan Qingguang, there is also a middle-aged man in Tang costume on the boat, and the most attractive thing about this middle-aged man is his eyes. He had no black eyes in his pupils, and a pair of eyes that were as white as dead fish, and it was obvious that he was supposed to be blind.
Young Master Liao greeted the middle-aged man very politely, "Second uncle, you have arrived." ”
The blind man nodded slightly, "Everyone is here, let's start acting without delay." ”
The old man behind Young Master Liao instructed a sailor next to him, and the sailor beckoned a few people to the cabin.
Taking advantage of this, Yuan Qingguang asked me what was going on, and I told him concisely.
"You said this is the cemetery of Guiguzi?" Yuan Qingguang's eyes widened.
"Probably, what they said, I'm not sure." I said.
"This place is so remote, burying people is indeed appropriate." Yuan Qingguang looked around.
As the two men spoke, two sailors came out of the cabin with a pile of clothes. These clothes look quite thick, and they are all waterproof clothing.
It's not very cold this season now, and I don't know what it means that they make so many thick clothes.
Bai Xiaosheng and Young Master Liao, as well as the old man behind him, as well as his second uncle, all used to wear heavy clothes on their bodies.
I, Yuan Qingguang, and the ancient style master and apprentice stood still and didn't move.
"The farther you go inside, the colder it gets, let's go at once, and you guys put on your clothes." Bai Xiaosheng said as he got dressed.
I didn't understand what he meant, isn't the temperature inside different from the outside?
However, we all wore our clothes on our bodies, and after putting on the thick clothes, we suddenly felt a lot clumsy.
Seeing that we were all dressed, Bai Xiaosheng shouted, "Lift the anchor and start the boat......"
With the clattering corpse, the anchor was raised, and the ship began to slide slowly, then suddenly began to accelerate, heading straight for the rock wall on the right.
One of my hearts suddenly rose to my throat, and I wondered why these people were doing this. If it really hit the rock wall, all the people on board would have to fall into the river.
Even if the little white dragon arrives here, I'm afraid it won't be able to swim out.
I glanced at everyone, except for the Liao family and Bai Xiaosheng, the rest of them all had surprised expressions on their faces.
From the fact that they had just taken out their thick clothes, and now their faces have not changed, I conclude that it is definitely not the first time that the people of the Liao family have come, and they are very experienced.
There was a gurgling sound on the water, and the boat became faster and faster, splitting out a stream and crashing straight towards the rock wall on the right.
Just as my heart was in my throat, the water level was gradually dropping, and just as the boat was about to be next to the stone wall, a dark hole was revealed in the lower room of the stone wall.
Not only was I a little stunned, but I didn't expect there to be a hole in this place. It's a place like this, and almost no one has set foot in it. And as long as it's not at low tide, the hole in the rock wall won't be exposed. No wonder for thousands of years, the tomb of Guiguzi has not been found.
"This is the hard work of more than ten generations of our Liao family." Young Master Liao's second uncle suddenly spoke.
It was as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was speaking to us.
None of them spoke, and by this time the ship had driven straight into the hole.
Although the entrance to the cave is not small, the ship is a little large, and almost all of it is drilled into it by grazing the rock wall. Suddenly, my eyes went dark, and the sudden darkness made people's eyes suddenly unable to see anything.
I quickly closed my eyes and took two deep breaths before slowly opening them, barely adjusting to the darkness in the cave.
Just as we entered the cave, I felt the sound of water behind me, and when I looked back, I was not only shocked to see that the entrance to the cave might have been covered again because of the high tide.
It took only five or six minutes to emerge from the rock wall at the entrance of the cave, and it was once again flooded by the rising tide.
"In order to grasp the law here and grasp the time accurately, it took us ten years." Young Master Liao's second uncle spoke, "It's been ten years, it's been ten years, and I've been staying here all the time in order to find this hole." ”
"The first year we came in the summer and got nothing. The next year, we spent the Chinese New Year on the boat, and finally figured out the law of the high tide and ebb here. There are only a few days before and after today, and the water level here is relatively large when the tide is low. In the third year we discovered the cave after the tide went down. ”
"In the fourth year, we wanted to enter the cave, but the time was not pinched, and we were one step short. After that, although I was able to enter every time every year, it was in vain. ”
Not only did I squint my eyes, but if it was really as he said, this might really be the place where Guiguzi was buried at the end.
I haven't been able to get my hands on it for ten years, and there are really not many people who can do this.
As we spoke, I suddenly felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at us in the dark. Just as I was about to take a look around, Young Master Liao's second uncle whispered, "That thing is on the rock wall above our heads." ”
Hearing him say this, I dreamed of raising my head, and I couldn't help but be stunned. Because there was a man lying on top of our heads.
I read that right, it's a person. I couldn't help but curse in my heart, how could there be humans in this ghost place. Could it be the legendary aliens?
Just as I looked up, the man above me suddenly threw down a fist-sized stone, which was going to hit my head, and if it did, I would have to hang on the spot.
"What the hell is this?" As I spoke, I took a step back, and the stone fell to the boat, and the planks immediately clicked.
As the rock fell, the strange man disappeared from sight with a whizz.
"What's that?" I couldn't help frowning.
"I don't know, it's the first time we've met. Every time we come in, we come across something we didn't have the last time we had. Bai Xiaosheng shrugged his shoulders and said.
He's said it all, what else can I say.
The boat glided rapidly forward in the dark cave, and I always felt as if eyes were watching us secretly.
I held the Dragon-Seeking Sword in my hand, ready to fight at any time.
Just as we had been driving for about ten minutes, there was a sudden "squeak" sound from the top of the cave.
The sound sounded like a command, and countless stones fell down on our ship.
"Hurry up and hide in the cabin." After Bai Xiaosheng shouted, he took the lead and got into the cabin.
I also hurriedly pulled Yuan Qingguang into the cabin, although the structure of the cabin was very strong, but countless stones fell down, and a hole in one part of the cabin was quickly smashed.
I was eager to figure out what was out there, so I grabbed a plank from the cabin and put it on top of my head and walked inside.
The moment I saw the stone wall above my head, I felt a tingling in my heart, and on the stone wall above our heads was densely packed with a piece of human monsters, their bodies had brown hair, and their bodies were very stable climbing on the stone wall.
When I saw these monsters, I couldn't help but scream in my heart. These things are actually mandrills, and mandrills are also known as unicorns. Because it runs faster than a leopard, it can tear tigers and leopards with its bare hands, and is known as the overlord of the mountain.
There is a saying that it is better to meet a jackal than to touch a mandrill, which further illustrates the horror of a mandrill.
At the same time, mandrills have a very strong sense of territory occupation, once they find that an animal has entered their territory, the mandrill will immediately gather their companions to launch a siege, whether it is a human or an animal, when facing the mandrill, they will retreat.
