Chapter 103: The Fish Is Gone

Avoiding the pit in the rear, they made a quick journey, and near noon, the group finally came to the bottom of the suspended lama temple.

"I'll go up and have a look first, and then you can come up when it's okay."

Zhang Qixun climbed onto the wooden beam, climbed up and carefully pushed the wooden plank blocking the entrance.

The inside of the lama temple is very quiet, and the floor and the surface of the tools on the wall are all dusty.

Zhang Qixun frowned, found the staircase at the edge of the stone wall and walked up.

The room on this floor was almost completely closed, there were several incense burners overturned on the floor, the incense ashes in them were scattered everywhere, there were many messy footprints on the dusty and incense ash floor, and although the felt blanket hung in the room was still there, the ash on it was a mess, and it had formed a dry scab.

This was the case in successive rooms, and there were signs that the Campballors hadn't set foot in a long time.

And after the people of Kangbalo were forced to abandon this place for some reason, another group of people came here and took something from it.

Zhang Qixun half-squatted down, carefully compared the shapes and patterns of these shoe prints, his face became more and more solemn, he immediately got up, walked quickly through the heavy tents, found the stairs of the people walking, and quickly went up to the third floor of the lama temple.

The destruction was even worse, and the savage creatures did not know what they were looking for here, and even the statues of the gods on the altar were overturned and stolen to the side, and there was nothing special on the walls except for the frescoes that were so common in Campalore.

In Naruhito's notes, the stairs climbed up by the girl riding the corpse of Hades and this side should be two separate spaces, and Zhang Qixun turned around and came down the stairs to find another staircase specially prepared for the corpse girl.

Looking up, the entire upper half of the staircase has been rudely demolished, and the lower half of the staircase has only broken a few pieces of wood because it was embedded in the stone wall when it was built.

Zhang Qixun carefully stepped on the only remaining staircase and walked up, jumped suddenly, jumped high and grabbed the edge of the top staircase, and instantly flipped up with his arms.

He carefully grasped the door frame and stood up straight, and saw that the door panel in front of him and the half of the armrests around him were charred black, very bad.

It was as if there had been a fire that had burned down the wooden door along with the blood-grafted silk near the doorway, and there were black oil stains dripping down the stairs, and the smell of strange and unpleasant spices was indescribable.

Behind the broken wooden door, there is also a very strong black iron door, this iron door is a trap door, and there are obvious traces of directional blasting by detonators.

This type of mechanical iron door is very plain and heavy, and it is also very sturdy, and only a specific key can open it.

Apparently the Germans blasted it when they found that it could not be opened, trying to blow it through, but apparently they did not succeed.

They didn't dare to use too extreme means, if the contents were destroyed, the mission would directly fail.

What is behind the iron gate, Zhang Qixun has never entered, it is most likely something about the sacrifice of the Hades riding corpse, and he has no intention of exploring it.

Zhang Qixun let go of his hand and jumped back to the ground, and he heard the humming sound of someone talking behind the felt, and knew that Wu Xie and the others probably couldn't wait to come in directly.

"The lamas here are not very hygienic." The fat man had already lit the charcoal stove for the fire, and took off his shoes with his feet crossed.

The boots that were dried last night were unintentional when they crouched on the ice before, and one foot poked into the water again, and it was cold and heavy.

Zhang Haixing was so smoky by the smell of his feet that she couldn't stand it, she wrinkled her nose in disgust, and found a suitable tool to pry open the wooden window on the wooden wall of the lama temple that was sealed by wooden boards, so that fresh air from outside could circulate in.

Wu Xie skillfully put his nose on his cuffs, looked down at the ground, and said in a muffled voice: "The ground is full of dust, it stands to reason that the air on the snow mountain is clean, and the dust should be very small, there is so much ash here, how much incense do they have to burn here every day." ”

It is normal for a lot of dust to fall in the lama temple, but the current traces show that it has been cleaned for a long time.

"And you look at the footprints on the ground, there are too many and too miscellaneous, except for the ones we stepped on when we came in just now, and Bai Ci's, the rest of the sole patterns are all the same, it is obvious that there was a group of people with relatively uniform equipment here."

"And the footprints were covered with a new layer of light ash after stepping on the ground, indicating that these people have been here for a while." Wu Xie analyzed reasonably, "Could it be the same group of Germans half a month ago?" ”

"You're right." Zhang Qixun walked over with a hunting knife to remove the felt and said, "There are still fish in that group of Germans who have not been killed by Mabonim and the bell array, and they have wreaked havoc on this place after entering the lama temple. ”

"I think it's been abandoned for a long time, could it be because of the Germans?" Zhang Haixing said, "The Germans suddenly attacked the Campaloan people, causing them to abandon this place. ”

"Did you find anything up there?" She asked Zhang Qixun.

"It's a mess, nothing important is left." Zhang Qi searched.

Wu Xie immediately thought of something more serious, "Could it be that the target of the Germans is the Hades riding corpse above?" ”

Zhang Qixun nodded and said: "Eight or nine are not far from ten, their purpose may really be related to the king of Hades riding the corpse, but above it is a trap door left by the Kangbaluo people, which is very strong, and even I can't enter without a key, so it is even more impossible for them." ”

"So what's their next goal? If they can't get into the room where Hades rides the corpse, will they go directly to Kangballo. Wu Xie pondered, "Judging from the clues left along the way, those Germans don't look like they will give up easily. ”

"Then let's hurry up, eat something to fill our stomachs and set off immediately, no matter what the situation is, we have to go and see to rest assured." The fat man found an iron rod, picked up his shoes and put them on the stove, and let the charcoal fire roast inside.

Then he took out a stove with charcoal left over and lit it, and picked up some full meat paste rice.

During the meal, Zhang Haixing suddenly thought of a question, and immediately asked Zhang Qixun, "When you went to the mountain a year, where did the corpses of those Germans go, did they cross the ice lake?" ”

Zhang Qixun chewed the beef jerky slowly, and said slowly: "The meat is estimated to have been eaten by the small fish in the lake, and the bones are all settled underneath." ”

"You already knew there was an ambush bell array in the canyon?" Zhang Haixing's tone was a little questioning.

"I don't know, I just found out." Zhang Qixun's face was as always, and there was no trace of lying, "The ice lake is not the only way to get to Kangballo, they don't listen to my advice, they have to cross the lake when night falls, they are fascinated by the illusion and fall down and drown, and they are also to blame." ”

When Zhang Haixing heard this, she asked suspiciously, "You said that we are not the only way, so you know other roads, how much are you hiding from us!" ”

"That's the way to Camballor, why should I tell you." Zhang Qixun looked at her coldly, word by word, "An outsider." ”

Zhang Haixing was choked by him mercilessly, her face couldn't hold back, and she slapped the canned food box to the ground with a snap.

As soon as she was about to speak, the fat man became angry and shouted, "What are you doing? Pick up the bowl to eat, and after eating, you will drop the bowl with a wipe of your mouth, right, is there a little morality, it was for the sake of your old age that the fat man I respect the old and love the young and don't care about you, why do you still kick your nose in the face? ”

"Shut up the old lady!" Zhang Haixing looked angry, stood up and kicked the canned food box away.

The iron box slammed on the window lattice, and a black shadow suddenly flashed outside the window, and then I heard something "plop" and fell into the water.

Everyone was stunned, a small wind was blowing beside them, and in the next second, Zhang Qixun had already broken through the window and chased out.

When Wu Xie and the others rushed to the window and looked down, they saw that a large hole had been smashed open in the ice under the lama temple, and the water splash inside was still rippling outward.

"? , what the hell was that? It's a big black shadow. The fat man scolded, and raised his leg to climb up to the window.

Wu Xie hurriedly dragged him down, "Are you jumping down to help him, or wait for him to come out of the mouth of that strange fish and pick you out." ”

"Grandma's." The fat man hurriedly said, "Then what to do, we can't wait." ”

"Get out of the way!" Zhang Haixing pushed him away, stood on the window lattice, and jumped down, a very standard posture into the water, the slender and vigorous figure quickly disappeared into the water and disappeared.

"Good girl, this old woman is sharp enough." The fat man smacked his tongue, "Innocent, how are we going to get it now." ”

"Go and wait on the trestle below, with the ability of the two of us, going into the water is equivalent to death." After Wu Xie finished speaking, he immediately turned around and took a gun and walked downstairs.

The fat man also hurriedly put on his shoes and took a gun to follow, leaving Feng alone at a loss.

Feng saw from the window that Wu Xie and the others had already left the lama temple and were guarding the wooden trestle below, holding a gun vigilantly against the ice, and the stunned look on his face converged and turned into a cold expressionless face.

Zhang Qixun and Zhang Haixing were in a hurry to chase them out, and their backpacks were still next to the stove.

Feng raised his legs and walked over, first carefully looked through Zhang Qixun's backpack, but didn't find what he wanted in it, so he put the things back as they were, and then went to look through Zhang Haixing's, but only found the gauze that wrapped the copper bowl before.

β€œSHIT!” A trace of annoyance flashed on Feng's face, "That woman actually carried something with her, isn't she afraid of death?" ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the others were not there, Feng immediately got up and went to the third floor of the temple, and as expected, he was also blocked out of the iron gate.

This road did not work, so he turned around and went up the stairs on the other side, entered the room, and saw the mural of rare and exotic beasts on the stone wall, and a touch of surprise appeared on his face.

He crossed the beams of the two flashlights so that the aperture shone all on the murals on the stone wall, and then took out a pocket camera from his bosom and photographed all the murals on the wall.

He muttered, "I wonder if the few people who are still alive have found the entrance to the Zanshenmen Underground Palace...... I hope they can successfully complete the tasks assigned by the master and make no mistakes. ”

Outside the lama temple, Wu Xie and the fat man raised their guns and waited for the water, for fear that a strange fish would come out of nowhere, and the big shark-like fangs would scare people half to death if they didn't bite to death.

About five minutes later, many bubbles suddenly appeared in the cracked holes in the ice.

Wu Xie and the others immediately pulled their guns and loaded them, and then they saw Zhang Haixing's head coming out of the water, panting, and said to them: "Quick, pull me up, Ma Boningmu is here again!" ”

Wu Xie glanced under the ice behind her, and sure enough, he saw a huge black shadow looming over here, and quickly put down the gun and dragged Zhang Haixing up with the fat man.

The three of them quickly retreated to the place where they were clinging to the mountain wall, holding their breath and pretending they didn't exist.

Mabonim lingered under the ice near the trestle for more than ten minutes, and after not finding her target, she finally swam into the distance, and her huge figure quickly disappeared under the ice.

After waiting for a long time, he didn't see Ma Bonin kill like before, and Wu Xie's tense nerves relaxed a little.

He leaned over to the hole that had been covered with a thin layer of transparent ice, and leaned down to look inside carefully to make sure that the big guy in the water had indeed left.

The fat man followed him on guard, and when he saw this, he hurriedly lowered his voice and turned his head to ask Zhang Haixing behind him, "You chased down with Bai Ci, what about others?" ”

I don't know if it's because of the ice water, Zhang Haixing's face is ugly, she is wet and fighting with the water ghost, and her voice is so cold that it seems to come out of the ice crack, and after dropping the sentence "I didn't see it", she grabbed the wooden beam and got into it from the mouth at the bottom of the temple.

"Hey?" The fat man said unhappily, "What kind of attitude does this dead old woman have, it seems that the fat man owes her money." ”

Wu Xie patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "I guess her sudden stinky face is probably because she didn't keep up with Bai Ci in the water, Bai Ci didn't say before that there was another way to Kang Balo, she wanted to find out what was going on, but it didn't work." ”

The fat man hissed and pondered: "According to what you say, that Bai Ci suddenly jumped into the water and disappeared, could he actually go to Kangballo alone through the underwater road." And what about the previous black shadow? Could it be that Bai Ci made it out to scare people by himself, just to find an opportunity to break away from the team and act alone. ”

"Perhaps." Wu Xie wasn't very sure, Bai Ci was sitting next to him when he was roasting, if there was any abnormal movement, he would definitely be able to find out.

"Bai Ci is very defensive, even if it is a cooperative relationship now, but it is clear that when it comes to the matter of Kangbalo, he doesn't even believe us." (End of chapter)
