Chapter 36: The Trap?
"Have you rested?" I kicked Huang Shulang. Huang Shulang flicked up, like a spring. Really well trained.
"Okay, okay. After the previous experience of falling from the entrance of the cave, Huang Shulang seemed to be a lot bolder. This courage was really cultivated.
"Okay, let's go. "We all turned on the light on the miner's hat on our heads, and the flashlight in my bag I was going to use as a backup. Of course, I also lit a candle. If there is a lack of oxygen, the candle cannot be lit.
The cave was very quiet, and only the footsteps of me, Huang Shulang, and Black Bean could be heard. Black Bean is still very bold, and even in the cave, it always likes to run ahead. For it, everything seems to be full of fun.
We are chasing the light, and the night is chasing us. Under the light of the flashlight, we can only see two colors inside the cave: black and white.
"Master, Master, are there any martial arts cheats in this?" asked Huang Shulang.
"You ask me, who do I ask? Anyway, my previous cheats were found on the main peak. I can't guarantee if there is anything in it, but if you're scared, go back now. I said unhappily.
Huang Shulang hurriedly smiled at me: "No, no." I'm just asking. I've come in such a deep cave, how can I give up halfway?"
"Then don't talk nonsense. I don't know what there's in there, and if you're not quiet and attract those things, you're in big trouble. I threatened.
Huang Shulang shrank his neck and quickly shook his head: "I don't speak, I don't speak." ”
Along the way, the cave is very new, as if it was newly dug, and traces of excavation can still be seen on the cave wall. Could it be that the cave where we are now was dug by those of the archaeological team? The people of the archaeological team have disappeared, so naturally there is no answer to my question.
Pounce, pounce, pounce.
Suddenly, I heard something other than our footsteps, very much like dull footsteps.
"Stop!" I quickly stopped. Huang Shulang didn't react, he still bumped into him, although in terms of strength, Huang Shulang is not my opponent, but in terms of tonnage, I naturally can't compare to Huang Shulang. So, the two of us collided, Huang Shulang still stopped in place, not moving, but I flew out. By the time I got up from the ground, it was already quiet.
"What's wrong? Master. Huang Shulang hurriedly pulled me up.
"It's fine. "I was a little angry and patted the dust off my body. stood still and listened carefully for a while, but did not hear any movement, before turning back to Huang Shulang and saying, "I want you to stop later, you have to stop immediately." Did you hear that?"
"Got it. "Huang Shulang saw that my expression was serious, and he obviously knew that the stakes were high.
I quietly condensed my most powerful Vitality Thunder Word in my hand. Always ready to destroy the enemy in the future.
Huang Shulang was heavy, and when he walked, his movements were very loud, and the entire cave was filled with the sound of Huang Shulang's footsteps.
"Tap!" I reminded Huang Shulang.
"Hey, hey. Huang Shulang should have come down, but when he walked, he still moved very much.
Just when I felt the footsteps again. Black Bean's hair stood on end and barked at the black hole.
"Woo Woo, Woo Woo, Woo Woo ......"
I couldn't understand the dog's barking, but I could feel the black bean's emotions. It sensed something dangerous. What exactly is that?
Huang Shulang is slow to react, although he is delicious and timid, but he is the most sluggish in his response to danger. It's good that you don't get scared easily.
I already feel that something is coveting us. What is it? Is it a man? Or a beast? Or something else?
"Did you find anything just now?" Huang Shulang nodded little by little, and when he looked into the distance, his eyes narrowed into a line.
I said to Huang Shulang angrily, "Let's go." ”
This newly dug tunnel is not very long, mainly because the hole is getting narrower and narrower, and it is only difficult to walk. So the speed of walking is extremely slow. I walked for more than ten minutes. Although there was a shock, there was no danger in the end.
After walking through this newly dug cavern, we came to a very old cave, which, judging from the condition of the cave, must have been artificially constructed. Because the walls of the cave are all hand-hewn out of square bluestone. The stone has been in the cave for I don't know how many years, and it has a thick layer of moss on it. It was only when I scraped the moss with a knife that I saw the stone in its original form. The cave was built on such a large scale that the fat man and I jumped up and couldn't reach the top of the cave.
"Master, Master, we have made a fortune! There must be a treasure buried in it! We have made a fortune!" Huang Shulang thought of the treasure and forgot that there were so many people in the archaeological team who did not come out of this cave. I'm afraid this is not a treasure cave, but a cannibalistic cave where life is buried.
I felt that I was no better than a fat man, and I dared to risk my life to run into this cave for the little hope in my heart.
Why should I take the risk? I can't remember that time anymore. The bronze medal on my chest confusing me at the time. The ignorance of monasticism also made me eager to ask the truth. But I can't find anyone I can trust, who can ask. When I met Li Shaoqing, I really wanted to ask him. But I subconsciously rejected this person. I sensed danger in him. Makes me do everything I can to avoid this man. Now that Li Shaoqing may be dead, all the clues I have to seek answers may be in this cave. So I took the plunge.
I still have a huge unanswered question about what exactly is here that has always drawn me in, that has been calling me at night. It seems that something is waiting for me here.
The bronze medal on his chest throbbed slightly, as if his heart was beating.
Knock Knock...... Knock Knock......
I seem to hear a rhythmic heartbeat! Is that what attracts me?
I finally realized that the reason why I was drawn here was because of the bronze medal that I had been wearing on my chest! This bronze medal planted the seed of the Tao in my body, and although the seed germinated and grew my Tao, my Tao was inevitably affected by the bronze medal.
Is this bronze medal a trap? All for this day?
Seeing that I stopped in place, Huang Shulang pushed me with his hand.
"Master, why did you stop, did you find anything again?"
Only then did I come to my senses, and it was useless to think too much. Anyway, with my young mind now, I can't figure out so many questions. The best thing to do is to ignore everything and go over and see what is going on. It's all here, don't look at the hole cards and look at it, who can be willing.
Huang Shulang's eyes were already flashing with two ingots, and he might be fantasizing that there was a huge treasure waiting for him.
The cave does not appear to have been badly damaged, and no signs of a fight have been found. The question is: where did the archaeological team go? What did they encounter in this cave? What is the terrible thing in it?
