Chapter 281 goes on a circuitous journey
When it was dark outside, everyone woke up from their sleep.
After everyone ate and drank, everyone sorted out their outfits and moved forward.
The cave is a natural formation, full of upside-down stalactites.
There's a lot of bat droppings and stuff all around.
No one seems to have set foot here, at least I don't see any signs of human activity.
Xiaohua explained, "There is no need to set up any mechanism here, because anyone who can enter here is a corpse. ”
We all know what Xiaohua means.
It's as if it's a dedicated existence for corpses.
And now we just need to find that outlet, and then follow the outlet, and then follow the outlet, backwards, into the interior of the Immortal Dao Palace.
The emperor lives up to his wishes.
We walked all morning, and finally found the outlet in the afternoon.
It was a cave built a little above the underground river.
Think of it as an underground pipeline.
The hole is not large, and there is a bit of moisture inside, but there is not a lot of living water left.
Everyone put on gas masks and climbed up in this dreary and oppressive environment.
No one knows how long this passage is, so they can only move forward.
Sometimes, you will even encounter rotting corpses and dried corpses that are stuck in the passage.
When you press your hand on it, you will hear the sound of a balloon leaking.
The air was even more unpleasant, even with a gas mask covering the nose and mouth.
I don't know how long I climbed, Li Dabao couldn't help it anymore, grabbed my leg and said, "Damn, on the ninth day, I can't hold on, why haven't I reached the end yet." ”
Xiaohua at the front replied: "Hold on a little longer, according to the estimated incentive, it should be almost there." ”
"There should be more than one pipe like this, otherwise there is simply no way to transport such a large number of corpses down."
"The Immortal Dao Palace is not above our heads, it should be on the other side, otherwise there is no reason why we haven't reached it after climbing for so long."
Faced with Xiaohua's explanation, Li Dabao said impatiently: "You said lightly, if you go back, we will ......."
As we spoke, we heard a whistling sound above our heads.
This whistling sound was small at first, but as the whistling became louder and louder, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
Xiaohua exclaimed, "Everyone is clinging to the wall, something is coming down......"
But this passage is so big, I'm okay with Xiaohua.
Immediately behind the wall, there is also room for one person.
But Gesang and Li Dabao are relatively large in themselves, and even if they are close to the wall, there is not much space left.
If a poisonous snake or python falls from above, I think everyone will die in this closed and small space.
It's too late, it's too fast.
From the moment we pressed our bodies against the walls of the cave, the contents of the pipes were already in the foreground.
It's fast, and it's like a slide and you're going down.
Gesang was big, and he dragged the slippery thing with one hand.
Everyone looked at it and saw that it was a dead man.
There was a bright bullet hole above the head.
He was shot in the head.
Seeing that this person's clothes are very modern, I can only see that it is definitely not Uncle Yan's person.
Uncle Yan entered the mountain with a total of four people, Gesang was by my side, and the other two guys were already dead.
This guy is either Mr. Big's or the boss.
Otherwise, it's the people on the side of Guzang Peak.
Xiaohua's brows furrowed when she saw this person.
After a while, he said, "He is our man." ”
I hummed and asked rhetorically, "Our people?" ”
Xiaohua whispered: "It's us, not you!" ”
I pointed to the corpse inside the passage and asked, "You mean to say that he is also a palace keeper?" ”
Xiaohua nodded and said, "That's right, it's just that he was supposed to be in the stockade, why did he appear here?" ”
"Could it be that something happened in the stockade?"
Although the village is occupied by Mr. Big and the boss's people, there are still many aborigines in the village, even the old and weak, women and children.
No matter how mad this group is, it is impossible to do anything to them.
Two of the palace guards stayed in the stockade and hid.
As for why it was arranged, Xiaohua didn't say, but I can probably guess something.
I haven't revealed these things to anyone, but I know that Xiaohua and their group must have a huge secret brewing.
The secret may well be that at the expense of everyone, even themselves.
And then bury all the secrets here.
I don't know if Xiaohua will succeed in the end, but I won't take the initiative to say it.
Xiaohua said: "Get this corpse down, there must be an accident on it that we don't understand." ”
As she spoke, Xiaohua began to speed up and climb up.
During the period fell from above some more corpses.
The corpses were men, women, and old men.
Their deaths were also different.
Some were shot to death, others had their throats cut, and some were pierced through the heart with a crossbow.
Some of them even had their throats crushed.
Among them are Mr. Big's people, and there are also people we don't know.
When we climbed out of one of the exits, everyone's first instinct was to take off our gas masks and start retching in a variety of ways.
Even the faces of locals like Xiaohua are very unsightly.
After all, we climbed up the sewer little by little, not to mention the stench on the bodies of several people.
After everyone retched for a while, they began to observe the surrounding environment.
It's a stone chamber, but it seems to me more like a prison.
The surrounding walls and floors were covered with blackened blood, and all kinds of decayed torture instruments were scattered around the corners.
On another dusty stone platform, there are also many clay pots scattered on it.
Some of the pots were shattered, revealing a lot of black residue.
There was a stone door on our side, ajar, and the back was so dark that nothing could be seen.
Xiaohua got up and took a brief look at it and said, "This is a test pharmacy......"
"We climbed out of the nearest exit, and I think there will be a lot of them like this."
Li Dabao shrugged his shoulders, turned his head to look at me and said, "That, Jiuri, don't you think you seem to have seen the operation here somewhere?" ”
I looked around coldly and said, "Of course, I will never forget those things in my life." ”
"But I can't say that this place is detailed with those places, I can only say that those places should be restored according to here."
"It's just more modern."
"And someone must have been here a long time ago."
Xiaohua didn't know what we were talking about, and she didn't ask curiously.
Instead, he said, "There's no value in checking here, let's go out from here and see where we can enter." ”
"In short, as long as it goes all the way up, it takes so long to prove that our route is not too wrong......!"
Xiaohua walked in front with a flashlight.
The passage behind the stone gate is less like a corridor than a corridor.
At the end of the corridor, another stone chamber is connected.
In the center of this stone chamber, there is a Dan furnace.
The material of the Dan furnace is cast in bronze, but the size is very small, not as large as expected.
In the corners of the perimeter there are many broken vessels, some of them pottery and some of them of bronze, and some of the iron that decays to the touch of it.
This time I don't need Xiaohua to explain, everyone knows that this must be an alchemy pharmacy.
And there are many alchemy pharmacies like this, and each alchemy pharmacy will look at two trial pharmacies.
We had visited several apothecaries before we saw the door to the door in one of them.
It was a huge stone door, and the stone door was carved with a relief beast.
We were inside, and we could clearly see that the top door stone behind the stone gate had not been moved.
"On the ninth day, no one seems to have come in here?"
"I didn't expect that we were so late, and we could still touch places they couldn't touch."
"Maybe you can really filter the pit when you go out......"
