Chapter 34: Diving into the Earth River (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Seeing that there were three people, who committed suicide by throwing themselves into the pond in high spirits, Xiaoyu seemed to think of something...... My heart sank!
These three people are not villagers in Niushou Village, especially the guest who told about the changes in Wang Chuliang's military camp, and they have a deep understanding of the "demon bones harming people", so why did the three of them commit suicide by throwing themselves into the pond?
Could it be ...... Have they also been bewitched by demon bones?
After the accident in Wang Chuliang's army, those demon bones changed into gold and silver, and continued to deceive people, and then ...... Circulating in the market, and in their hands?
Xiaoyu felt ...... This is unlikely, since something big has happened, more than 7,000 people have died, and the fool will use the "gold and silver" stolen by Wang Chuliang to circulate.
And these people even committed suicide by jumping into the pond, so there seems to be only one possibility for the truth! That is, ...... They are all in Niushou Village and have eaten people's "special braised meat"!
That's right. But all the people who have eaten braised pork in Niushou Village are all "latent patients" who want to run back and jump into the pond. Oh my God! This is terrible! You must know that Niushou Village has existed as a "post station" for so many years, and how many people have worked here, stayed, and dined.
Doesn't that mean....... These people, sooner or later, will return to Niushou Village and commit suicide by jumping into the pond one after another?
No wonder in the ruins of the Yuan Mansion...... What about the shadow of the ghost lady who disappears from time to time......? It is like a "radio station", constantly sending signals, calling those who have eaten the special braised meat of Niushou Village to return to the village one after another...... "Reunite" with the villagers. Xiaoyu seems to have figured it out all at once!
However, what worries him the most is Sima Yang! You know, this buddy...... Before going to Fufeng Town, I had a full meal in Niushou Village!
The two brothers went into the cave on the wall of the stinky pond one after another, of course Sima Yang saw everything that happened just now, Xiaoyu didn't know what he felt in his heart?
"Brother Sima...... The person who committed suicide by throwing himself into the pond just now was the guest who ate roast lamb shank with us two days ago......." Xiaoyu hinted.
Sima Yang frowned, and let out a long sigh: "Yes, but Brother Zhu, you don't have to worry about me, as long as I don't separate my form and spirit so far, I won't be in the evil law of demons again...... The Demon Lady's demon magic is powerful, but I don't believe she can break my desireless true soul!"
Hearing Sima Yang say this, Xiaoyu was a little relieved...... The two of them began to drill down little by little along the acupuncture point, foot down.
Although the acupuncture is not too wide, and it is tortuous, abrupt and bumpy, as long as you don't drill down side by side, the space is still quite abundant, and the butt sits on the ground, like rubbing a slide to move down little by little, but it is not difficult!
At the beginning, there was still light at the entrance of the cave, but after a 30-degree slope, the light behind me was completely gone, and I could only see with "special tools"!
Xiaoyu has repeatedly compared, and using the Guanyin jade pendant to look around, it is obviously more advantageous than Sima Yang's "concentric talisman"!
Although it is said that the Guanyin jade pendant is very inconvenient to hold in the hand, after all, ..... "eyes" are grown on one's body, whether it is from the body coordination or spatial perception, it is all integrated!
But...... Sharing the sight of the mouse with Sima Yang, the eyes must be closed, and the surrounding can only be judged by the images presented in his mind...... It feels very unreal! and...... Those "eyes" are on Sima Yang's "body", not his own eyes, you can look wherever you want!
Xiaoyu is still smart, and on a whim, he tied the Guanyin jade pendant directly diagonally to his head, like a one-eyed pirate captain in Europe, he can't fall off after tightening, but it's quite convenient, and it's much more reliable than wearing glasses!
All of a sudden, I saw everything around me clearly, and my hands were freed! Miraculously, I ...... At first, it was only one eye that could see clearly, but slowly, the other eye was carried into rhythm....... It seems that I can see something vaguely in the dark......
The two of them walked along the winding ventilation path for a long time, and the entrance to the cave began to become more and more cramped, and they could only accommodate themselves lying down, slowly moving their feet downward. After drilling for more than ten meters in such an embarrassment, the space in front of me suddenly opened up, and a wide and extremely dirty underground riverbed appeared in front of me!
On both sides of the river, there was a mess of corpses of varying degrees of decay, all blistered, their faces as swollen as pig's heads, and they were all clothed...... If it weren't the villagers of Niushou Village, who else would it be?
On the mud on both sides of the beach, there are bones of unknown period, rotting and fermenting, all of them have mildew and green hair, as well as hair filth, etc., pickled and piled up into a ball, extremely dirty, just like a pot of "corpse sauce"!
Xiaoyu swallowed and foamed disgustingly, frowning and staring, observing the earthly river......
The river is as wide as the road surface of the national highway, and the water is turbulent and bottomless. It's hard to imagine...... All this water gushes out from under the stinking pool.....! Looking at the pond from the outside world, it was calm and calm, not moving.
There must be another article under that stinky pond, I feel ..... Like the eye of the sea, it is not as simple as an ordinary underground water system!
Again..... The cave space in the entire underground riverbed is indeed spacious..... It is like a highway tunnel through the mountain, and together, it shows how wide it is, but it is not high, the highest point is only two or three meters, and the lowest point can also allow people to walk straight up.
Except for the river that flows in the middle, the wide shore on both sides is covered with bones and mud, and the closer you get to the edge, the drier the road becomes, and it is basically ground smooth gravel.
The end of the ventilation channel where Xiaoyu and Sima Yang are located is located in an edge area of the vaulted cave roof, and jumping down from the inside, just enough to jump onto the shore...... It's a relatively dry place.
Come to think of it, it's often windy here, so it's not like that's wet.
Sima Yang and Xiaoyu jumped down one after another, and the internal situation was even more visible.......
Looking up and down the river, I could not see its head or its tail, because it was drilled down a slope of less than 30 degrees, and at this moment, it was already a long horizontal distance from the stinky pond, and I could not see how the pond and the spring poured water into the river.
"Brother Sima, have you seen it..... The rise of the river in this place may not be completely affected by the season, these ordinary people, all lying on the beach, obviously washed ashore when the river swelled, however...... It's been a few days since they jumped into the pond," Xiaoyu sighed.
Sima Yang said: "Yes, what we see here is still very little, the deeper we go, the more we see, the river water in this area is relatively deep, and it is more urgent, and when we get to the front, the river water is shallow." ”
Xiaoyu nodded: "I mean..... Let's move quickly, in case this underground river swells and floods us directly, it will be troublesome, and you have so many charms on you, if you get soaked in water, won't it be completely useless?"
"yes! Let's go!"
As soon as the two brothers had said that, they went one foot deeper and one foot shallow, along the edge of the underground river, in the direction of the river.
The ground was full of filth and bones, sticky and pickled...... It's hard and abrupt, the dead man's hair is still wrapped around his feet and neck, there is no need to mention the disgusting and bad heart, and the smell inside is indescribable! But Xiaoyu's mentality is very peaceful, people live in the world, who also eats, as long as you don't "chew", you will lose as soon as you "chew"!
After moving forward for about 3-400 meters, the situation was indeed as Sima Yang described, the river became shallow, and the scattered bones in the river could be seen, but at the same time, the river surface became wider, and they had to carefully carry it along the very edge of the riverbed tunnel, not wanting to step directly into the water.
When I arrived at this place, there were even more dead bodies, men, women, and children, stacking on top of each other, in different postures, and it was unbearable...... What is especially palpitating is that when I look closely at their swollen faces, not to mention twisted and hideous, they are all smiling, as if they were dead, and they do not feel any pain or fear. Instead..... Extremely happy, extremely excited, just like the three "high-spirited" guests who had just committed suicide in the pond......
This can't help but make Xiaoyu think back to the old woman who laughed loudly. Then..... Xiaoyu thinks that guy has prion laughing disease, but now it seems that ...... There seems to be something else hidden!
The three guys who jumped into the pond just now were just full of spring breeze, but they didn't laugh?
When you get to this place, don't expect any more dry roads, Xiaoyu and Sima Yang stepped on the soft mudflats, and the mud could directly cover the feet and necks and pour into the shoes, which was very uncomfortable......
The further you go, the deeper the mud becomes, and it doesn't even reach your knees, and every step you move is very strenuous!
Before, Sima Yang's little paper mouse could climb rocks and walk on the wall, and he couldn't feel these practical difficulties, but when the two brothers came down to bow down in person, many objective troubles and problems were highlighted.
What made them even more embarrassed and shocked was that after walking about ten meters in the swamp-like mudflat, they suddenly felt ...... Inside the trouser legs and shoes, there seems to be something drilling around!
No, there are insects in the mud! Xiaoyu clearly felt it...... A little worm was crawling up his trouser leg, and he immediately leaned down and pulled it out of his trouser leg!
When I put it in front of me, I couldn't help but gasp, but I saw ...... The thing in his hand was a small black beetle! the size of a fingernail!
ps: In the new week, ask for a reward as usual, and ask for a recommendation to hit the list!
