Chapter Twenty-Three: Luckily I Met a Macaque and Had a Help
In this way, Yu Xun cautiously explored the way in the dark......
By accident, he suddenly noticed that on top of a stone bench by the side of the road, there was a small wooden box, and there seemed to be something shining in the box, so that the edge of the box was shining.
Yu Xun walked over quickly and opened the wooden box at once, and suddenly a large piece of light appeared in front of him—it turned out that there was a night pearl the size of a pigeon's egg inside—— good thing! Yu Xun suddenly felt extremely happy in his heart......
It turned out that just when he was falling, he was so frightened that he accidentally threw the golden knife into the pool in a panic! Now with this night pearl, it will be much easier!
Yu Xun hurriedly returned along the same route, and after a lot of twists and turns, he finally fished out the Shangluo Golden Knife from the water!
With the light of the Night Pearl, Yu Xun also found a discarded torch nearby, and then found the fire sickle and flint scattered next to it, so he rekindled the torch.
Yu Xun held the torch and walked around the area a few times, and found that it was a huge stone chamber that had been dug out by hand.
Why?
For as far as his eyes could see, he saw that on the stone walls on all sides, although the surface of the rocks was rough, they were relatively smooth...... Obviously, it's obvious that it's been processed by hand!
Yu Xun also found that the central part of this stone chamber is actually a small warm water pool, and its area is about two zhang square.
He couldn't help but look up with great curiosity at the hole where he had fallen from above, but strangely enough, the hole had reclosed on its own!
Yu Xun thought to himself: It's over, look at this - I'm going to be trapped in this stone room!
......
At this moment, there is another person who is also behind bars......
Since more than ten days ago, after seeing the back of a very suspicious Qin Piaofei in a secluded alley in Duxi Village, Pei Hong followed all the way to a tea stall at the head of the village......
Who knows, I drank two sips of tea soup, and then ...... I don't know anything!
After coming to his senses, Pei Xiu found that it was dark all around...... He stretched out his hands and groped around—and then he finally realized: he was in an underground black prison!
After a long time, a small slit was lifted in the lid above—a glimmer of light that had not been seen for a long time shone through! Then, a small basket hung down slowly......
It turned out to be a small bamboo basket that brought him food!
......
At that moment, Yu Xun, who found that he had been completely trapped to death, couldn't help but subconsciously grope for his body...... Fortunately, after eating in the morning, I also carried two flatbreads in my arms!
Now before him—the most pressing question is: how long can he last on this small amount of food?
It was estimated that it was almost noon, and Yu Xun really felt a little hungry - there was no way, he had to eat half of the cake very cherishedly...... Why is today's cake so delicious?
Yu Xun finished eating "lunch", and the whole person felt better, so he continued to hold the torch and search everywhere for the doorway that could be reached. He circled around the base of the stone wall around him, but found no sign of getting out......
And this underground stone chamber is a place with hot spring water all year round, so the humidity is relatively heavy. Yu Xun was tired in this morning, and he was not very accustomed to such a humid environment, so he began to feel a little tired......
So, he lay on a large bluestone polished into the shape of a bed and lay down with his clothes for the time being—planning to recuperate his spirits first, and then make the next step!
......
Falling asleep, it seemed that someone was touching him in a daze—but Yu Xun's feeling for that hand was fluffy......
Who is it? Yu Xun woke up in shock! He opened his eyes and saw that he was shocked again!
What was he seeing?
It turned out to be a mischievous little monkey! No, to be precise, it was a little macaque.
Longdong Mountain, where Shangluowu is located, is often infested with macaques on the mountain. The little macaque that appeared in front of Yu Xun's eyes at this moment should have run in from the mountains outside!
Then, since there are small macaques in this stone chamber that can enter, it is also a definite statement: it will definitely not be completely closed - there should be an exit from this stone chamber!
After thinking through this layer, Yu Xun now sincerely feels that the little monkey that suddenly appeared in front of him is actually a great savior sent by God!
Oh yes! It should be a little nicer!
And this little macaque is also very spiritual, after Yu Xun fed it a little food, slowly, people and monkeys gradually became acquainted......
The clever Yu Xun felt that this little macaque could be used - so he gestured to it, wanting to ask where the entrance and exit of the stone chamber were?
The little macaque seemed to understand his intentions immediately, and after it squeaked twice, it walked ahead and led the way, and as it walked, it looked back to see if Yu Xun had followed!
After a while, the little monkey led Yu Xun to a corner of the stone room. It snatched through the mess of debris with quick movements—and finally a small hole appeared there!
The little monkey was relatively small, and it had no problem getting in and out of that hole. But when it was replaced by Yu Xun to drill the hole, the body was only stuffed into a short section and was stuck!
It seems that there is still no way to get out!
Fortunately, the little macaque seemed to be particularly in love with Yu Xun, and it seemed to be very understanding, and it could easily understand the predicament that Yu Xun was currently facing...... Every day after that, the little macaque would come to him and bring some wild fruits and other things to eat.
Because of the "great help" of this little monkey, Yu Xun was in the stone room - the problem of eating was solved for the time being!
