Chapter 729: The Yin Wind Strikes
I looked at the man in front of me who was caught by Leizi, and a hint of surprise flashed in my eyes.
Qin Yujie walked up to me and asked in a low voice, "Brother Feng, do you know him?" ”
I had no choice but to nod truthfully, it turned out that the person who was caught by Lei Zi was the person I had entered this village to inquire about, the burly man who was squeezing his eyebrows at me.
"Who the hell are you? How did you get here? ”
I asked, staring at the burly man opposite, waiting for his answer without blinking.
He scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know how I came here, I was originally lost in the mountains and wanted to find a place to rest, but I didn't expect to come here." ”
I stared at him with an imperceptible sneer: "Are you lying to the child? You're the one who came down from the ancient well, right? ”
"After all, some of the water stains on your body haven't dried yet? If you don't tell the truth, I can only throw you into the Yellow River to feed Wang Ba. ”
I took a deep breath and tried to make my voice sound calm and determined: "I need to know your true identity and purpose, otherwise, I can't guarantee your safety." ”
The burly man's face turned pale, and he swallowed his saliva, apparently frightened by my threat.
Stammered, "I...... I'm really just a normal person, I don't know what this place is, and I don't know what you're talking about. ”
"I just got lost in the mountains and wanted to find a place to rest, and then I accidentally walked here."
I frowned, a little puzzled in my heart, no one would believe this.
He continued to ask, "You said you were lost, but where did you go before?" ”
The burly man said: "I used to go to the mouth of the Yellow River in Erlitou Yanshi, where I went to a small river area to fish, and accidentally slipped into a hole in the ground, so I don't know how I got here. ”
Listening to the burly man's words, I secretly wondered in my heart, and kept looking at the man's expression, analyzing how much of the man's words were true.
This is the bottom of the Yellow River below the well, and it has gone far away, and the location of the passage is so secret that ordinary people will not come here.
Moreover, the timing of this man's appearance was too coincidental, just after the end of our battle with Faqiu Tianguan.
However, I didn't show too much suspicion, after all, the most important thing now is to find the entrance to Dayu's tomb.
This person doesn't have too much earthy smell on his body, he shouldn't have been fighting on the ground all year round, but his whereabouts are so secretive.
I glanced deeply at the burly man, still full of doubts, and although his words sounded reasonable, I couldn't fully believe them.
After all, his appearance was too coincidental, and his identity and purpose were elusive.
Take a deep breath and try to make your voice sound calm and determined: "Okay, I believe you're lost. ”
"But, now you need to tell me that you came down from that road to the bottom of the Yellow River, we need to find a way out, and if you can provide clues, I will guarantee your safety."
The burly man hesitated, as if weighing the pros and cons, and finally, he nodded and whispered, "Okay, I'll tell you, and I can take you there"
"I was trying to find an exit to get out, but after walking a while, I heard your fighting. I didn't dare to move forward rashly, so I had to hide and observe. ”
"Okay, you lead the way, let's go out together." I said in a deep voice.
The burly man nodded, turned around and walked forward, I followed closely, Qin Yujie and Lei Zi, and the lone wolf also followed.
Our group cautiously walked along the passage, lest we miss any hidden clues.
After walking for a while, the burly man suddenly stopped, pointed ahead, and said, "There's a hole there, and I came down from there." ”
I looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, I saw a hole, which was not big enough for one person to pass through.
I frowned, a little uneasy in my heart, this hole looked a little weird, and I didn't know what danger would be inside.
He's an ordinary person, is he really free to come and go from here? Why can't I read him?
I secretly took a deep breath and motioned for Qin Yujie and Lei Zi to get ready.
Then, I was the first to walk into the entrance of the cave, and it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Lei Zi was beside me, and he felt the wolf's eye flashlight and turned on, illuminating the darkness ahead.
Our group walked cautiously along the entrance of the cave, I don't know how long, and finally saw a glimmer of light ahead.
With a joy in our hearts, we quickened our pace a little, and finally, we walked out of the cave and came to a spacious space.
It is a huge cave surrounded by stone walls with a clear stream in the middle.
We walked along the stream and soon came across a stone gate with some ancient patterns and words carved on it, which looked very mysterious.
I found that this mysterious stone gate is almost exactly the same as the one we found from the ancient well down into the underground river.
So does it mean that the method of opening the stone door is the same? But how did the man who led us plan to come from here?
The burly man was still walking forward, and I coldly called out to the other party: "Aren't you going to explain?" ”
"This stone door is blocked, how did you open it and get out of it?"
The burly man was stunned for a moment, and said a little overwhelmed: "When I entered here before, the stone door was open, I really don't know what's going on." ”
The burly man froze and stammered as he explained, as if confused by our question.
He emphasized that when he entered the place, the stone door was indeed open, and he was puzzled by the current situation.
I stared into his eyes for a few moments, trying to find any flaws in his expression.
However, he really didn't seem to know anything about it, and his eyes were full of confusion and innocence.
Qin Yujie whispered on the side: "Brother Feng, maybe he really didn't lie. ”
"It's a bit strange here, maybe there's some reason why the stone door opens and closes for some unknown reason."
I took a deep breath and nodded, temporarily letting go of my suspicions about the burly man.
Indeed, everything here seems so mysterious, we need to keep exploring to find out.
Looking at Lei Zi and Qin Yujie, following the burly man towards the direction of Shimen, I thought to myself: Could it be that what this man said is true?
But this stone door was opened by someone else? Could it be the Faqiu Heavenly Officer who ambushed us?
I found that the stone door was the same as the one outside, and it was opened in the same way as before, and the stone door was opened quickly.
The group cautiously passed through the stone gate and entered a more spacious cave.
The light here is very dim, and there is a damp and ancient atmosphere in the air.
The flashlight held by Thunder and the lone wolf illuminates the surrounding environment, and the cave is surrounded by uneven stone walls.
It is covered with moss and vines, and in the center of the cave, there is a wide passage that leads to the unknown depths.
Walking along the passage, some strange traces were soon discovered, and some broken pottery and jade were scattered on the ground, as well as some decaying cloth and wood.
Unexpectedly, the things buried in the underground sediment under the Yellow River are still a little broken after thousands of years.
However, not long before we could move forward, a cold wind suddenly blew from the depths of the cavern, carrying with it a suffocating stench of rancidity.
I couldn't help but shudder, and a feeling of uneasiness welled up in my heart, such a cold wind blew out of the cave, could it be that many people had died under this cave?
