421. The End Of The Cave
"Is this our destination?"
Looking at Xie Yuchen above, Sister Zhou was a little dazed.
She originally thought that she would go to the ground again this time to find clues in the bucket.
Unexpectedly, the destination this time is on this cliff!
"Hurry up!"
Xie Yuchen waved to Sister Zhou, and then jumped into the cave like a gecko.
"Okay!"
"Here we come!"
Sister Zhou responded, and then raised her right hand high.
【Flying Wrench】Activate.
The phantom of the wings emerged, took Miss Zhou to fly into the air, and rushed towards the entrance of the cave.
swish!
3 seconds flies by.
Sister Zhou flew smoothly all the way into the cave without any pressure.
"Um?"
Xie Yuchen looked at Sister Zhou who flew up from below with a puzzled expression, but for the system npc, he said "four four seven" and didn't say much.
"Is this where Huo Xiangu and the others came?"
When Sister Zhou stepped into the cave, she just felt chilly and a little gloomy.
"yes."
Xie Yuchen exhaled, took off the equipment on his body, and said: "The old Jiumen suffered heavy casualties in order to explore this cliff. In the end, they made an important discovery in this cave."
Sister Zhou: "Is that the 'design drawing' of the Zhang family's ancient building?"
"That's right."
Xie Yuchen stretched his muscles and said, "So they firmly believe that there is a key to enter the ancient building of the Zhang family in this cave.
"If there is a key, why not act together?"
Sister Zhou finally asked the question in her heart, and it is also the question of the majority of netizens:
"We took the key here together, and then went to Banai together to enter the Zhang family's ancient building. Wouldn't it be better? Why do we have to divide into two groups?"
"no."
Xie Yuchen shook his head resolutely: "Because the locks on the ancient building of the Zhang Family are not ordinary locks, but 'thousand-mile locks'.
Sister Zhou was stunned: "Qianli Lock?"
"Yes." Jie Yuchen expressionless: "'Thousand-mile lock' means that the lock is here, but the key is thousands of miles away, someone must be on the other side of the key, and someone must be on the other side of the lock.
"Such an awesome lock?"
Sister Zhou couldn't help but be speechless.
This reminded her of a certain plot in "Tricky Expert".
Zhou Xingxing used a mechanism to trap a bad guy in the toilet. The bad guy begged Zhou Xingxing to turn off the mechanism. Zhou Xingxing agreed, so he agreed to get the key to close the mechanism.
But what is unexpected is that the key is not in Xiangjiang, but in Icra, thousands of miles away.
I thought this kind of nonsense only appeared in Zhou Xingxing's movies.
Unexpectedly.
This thing actually appeared in "Stolen Pen"!
"Don't be dazed, let's go."
Xie Yuchen patted Sister Zhou, then walked deep into the cave.
Sister Zhou followed closely behind.
The cave is actually not deep.
After walking a few meters inside, Sister Zhou saw a dark man sitting cross-legged on the ground, motionless.
“There are rice dumplings!!”
Sister Zhou was taken aback.
He quickly took out the black donkey's hooves from his backpack.
Xie Yuchen stopped her: "Don't get excited, it's just a dead person.
The two approached cautiously.
The man remained motionless.
Sister Zhou lit a cold smoke and took a photo, only to find that the person sitting cross-legged was a black iron suit. Inside the iron suit was a skeleton that had already dried up, and the black hair bun inside could still be seen.
I looked around.
On the cave walls on both sides of the cave, sister Zhou can still see some small recessed holes, which seem to be used to place things, but unfortunately they are empty.
"It turned out to be another person who seeks the way."
Sister Zhou let go of her guard and murmured: "Wearing this iron suit, and then climbing such a cliff, how much effort will it take......"
Xie Yuchen explained: "There was such a custom in the ancient Shu generation, people who seek Tao often like to wear iron clothes to restrain their various desires.
"These dimples?"
Sister Zhou pointed to the hollow holes made on the cave wall and asked curiously.
"The ancients would carry some ancient books with them when they sought immortality, and these hollows are where they put silk books and ancient books." Xie Yuchen went up to have a look and said, "It is estimated that they were taken away by Granny Huo and the others. "
"Let's go, continue to look forward."
talking.
Xie Yuchen Yueguo's mummy continued to walk deep into the cave.
Sister Zhou hurriedly followed.
After continuing to walk eight meters, the two noticed something was wrong.
Because under the illumination of the miner's lamp, the cave wall and the ground below turned into a strange crimson color!
and.
On the ground, sister Zhou found some broken bones...
One, two, three...
Many skeletons, lying in different postures, were scattered in the cave.
can imagine.
A very big accident happened here before, and many people died.
It seems that Huo Xiangu was not lying, the old Jiumen really suffered heavy casualties here!
"These crimson ones are blood?"
Sister Zhou took a closer look at the reddish-brown color on the cave wall, and was a little surprised.
Such a large amount of bleeding, darling, this cave is a meat grinder??
With some fear in her heart, she turned to Xie Yuchen and asked, "What happened here back then, why did so many people die?"
"I'm not very sure either.
Xie Yuchen shook his head: "That all happened in the previous generation. I was still young at the time, and I only know that adults were unwilling to mention it at that time, and it was because of this incident that the vitality of the old Jiumen was seriously injured. shrouded in shadows....."
"What's in the hole?"
Sister Zhou became more and more curious.
Have an agency?
There are monsters?
If there is really a mechanism, so many people died at the old Jiumen, does it mean that the mechanism has been triggered, so it is safe for me to go in now?
If it is a monster.
After so many years, the monsters have eaten up their corpses and have nothing to eat, so they should starve to death, right?
all in all.
As long as the author of the game is not a pervert, there should be no danger.
Thinking like this.
Sister Zhou couldn't help but quicken her pace.
clang!
Walked for almost 1 minute. 2.8
Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed in the cave!
"what sound?"
Sister Zhou was frightened and shrewd.
"have no idea."
Xie Yuchen walked in front, carefully looking at the cave wall, checking for traps.
"What would that sound be? It feels like someone is striking with two iron rods..."
Sister Zhou shrank her neck and hid behind Xie Yuchen.
"it is this."
at this time.
Xie Yuchen in front of him stopped.
"Um?"
Sister Zhou leaned out and looked ahead.
turn out to be.
The two had reached the end of the cave.
At the end of the cave is a square stone room, in the middle of the square stone room, there is a round thing, which looks very abrupt...
