The road from the camp to the secret passage is a bit difficult to walk, and we have to go around the slope from a distance, so we spend a lot of time.

When we arrived at the secret passage, Professor Wu and his friends were leaning against the big tree to enjoy the cool air. When they saw the three of us coming, Uncle Long complained: "Why did it take so long? What we are waiting here is stuffy and hot."

Professor Wu waved his hand to stop Uncle Long and asked us to sit down and rest for a while. I saw that it was getting late, so I told Professor Wu that it would be better to go down and secretly, for fear that something would happen again when it darkened.

Unexpectedly, the old guy from the ship owner started to roll around again, refusing to stay on top of him, and insisting on following us to secretly tell the story.

Everyone knew it well, if he followed, our background would be exposed.

Professor Wu told him with a stern face that we are going to go on an investigation, and there will be dangers at any time, and no one can get in the way.

The shipowner shook his head like a rattle, insisting that the bush was even more dangerous, and even if he died, he would die below with us.

I saw that I couldn't change his mind for a while, so I thought of a bad move.

I just want to let him be the first to secretly tell me and let him look at the skulls inside. Maybe he will be scared to pee on the spot, and then I will see if he dares to continue following us.

So I pretended to agree with him and said to Professor Wu: "Yes, Professor, it is really not safe to leave him alone on it. Let's take him with me, and it's more of a helper."

Everyone was stunned by my attitude in an instant, and they didn't seem to guess my intention. I quietly gestured to Jinhu with a skull. The guy immediately understood and said with a wicked smile: "I agree with Comrade Xiao Xu's proposal. The boss of the ship is also a member of us. You can't leave him alone."

Professor Wu looked at us like he was looking at two psychopaths, and said helplessly: "Okay, you must look at him well after you go down."

"No problem!" Jinhu and I slammed our palms.

Then we both rode the owner on the left and right, and threw him down in secret.

The ship owner said tremblingly: "Why is it so dark here?"

Jin Hu smiled gloomyly and said in his ear: "I'm afraid you will be afraid if you turn on the flashlight!"

The ship owner said: "Don't joke, both bosses. I'm timid and afraid of the dark. You should take a look."

Actually, since he ran off the boat and came to see us, I always felt that this old guy seemed to have some problems.

If he was brought to the water ghost again, Qin Xuanling would have seen it immediately.

However, Qin Xuanling never looked at him directly, so he eliminated this possibility.

I decided to take this opportunity to test him and see what he is selling in the gourd.

I quietly pinched Jinhu's shoulder and signaled him to turn on the flashlight.

In an instant, the white skulls on the ground were displayed in front of us under the irradiation of the strong light and flashlight. The shipowner was stunned at first, and then his voice changed so much that his voice changed.

I immediately changed my face and asked sternly, "Didn't you have to come down? Are you scared now? Tell me, what's your purpose in following our butt?"

Jin Hu understood my intention and immediately grabbed his arm and said viciously: "Why are you asking you, follow me!"

The shipowner cried and said with tears in his eyes: "I have no purpose, two bosses, I am just a fisherman. If you weren't hired by you, how could I come to such a ghost place? It's so dangerous outside that I just follow you just to take care of you. I didn't expect that, I didn't expect that this is even more scary!"

After saying that, he took out his handkerchief and squatted on the ground and wiped his tears. Jin Hu said helplessly: "The acting skills are so fucking good, and he's crying."

I cursed, "Aren't you a slut who was very excited just now? Why are you scared now? Then I ask you, do you want to go with us?"

Unexpectedly, this guy immediately raised his head and wiped his tears and said, "Anyway, I'll follow you anyway. It's better than staying outside with you. As long as the two bosses don't scare me with such things, I promise not to cause trouble for you."

When I heard that he was planning to waste us, I thought I was not afraid of thieves stealing, but I was afraid of thieves thinking about it. Since that's the case, let's see what tricks he wants to play.

At this time, Professor Wu and the others also came down. I saw that it would not be a big deal to continue like this, so I pulled the owner up and told him not to run around and follow everyone.

Since Jinhu and I were at the forefront, we naturally became vanguards, and each of us had a strong flashlight to open the way for everyone.

Qin Xuanling and Han Sen followed closely, Uncle Long and Awei were in the middle, and Xiaoqian supported Professor Wu and followed slowly. As for the ship owner, he took the initiative to help Siyan and Lin Qian carry things, and the three of them stayed in the back of the palace together.

There are many forks in the secret passage, and there is one every five meters, so we have to keep moving forward based on our feelings.

Fortunately, Han Sen was sprinkled with fluorescent powder all the way, otherwise he would have been stunned by these forks when he walked back.

From time to time, several piles of skulls appear on the ground, which looks very terrifying.

I don't feel afraid of these things, but I always feel something is wrong. It seems that something must have happened in the secret passage, otherwise I wouldn't have put a few piles out every once in a while.

Slowly, the forks in front of me became increasingly dense, and then some curves appeared. Every few steps I took would turn left or right, and even extend downwards.

What’s strange is that as I walked, water began to drip in the secret passage. The golden tiger was poured into a flower-faced cat by mud and looked embarrassed.

I hurriedly called Siyan to ask him to analyze whether there was groundwater passing by here. Siyan glanced at the soil layer structure and suddenly panicked: "This is not groundwater, it should be that the rainwater outside seeped down through the gaps in the soil layer.

According to this situation, it must be raining heavily outside again. If the amount of rain increases further, there is a very likely landslide here!"

This news immediately made us feel ominous. Professor Wu said with a sad face: "What should we do? Why don't we go back the same way and try going in from another fork?"

Siyan said: "In fact, since we opened the entrance, it has been ventilated. If there is enough oxygen, it will definitely accelerate the loosening of the soil structure. No matter which fork is present, it will not be safe.

The key is that the secret passage has been built for too long. Now, as long as the rainfall is large, a large area of ​​landslide may collapse at any time. I think we should retreat out as soon as possible. It is too unsafe."

"Retreat? You can think about it. How can you withdraw and withdraw after finally finding this place?" Jin Hu disagreed with Siyan's suggestion.

Professor Wu thought about it and felt that safety was important. We did not make sufficient preparations this time. If the secret passage really collapsed, everyone would be in danger.

Just as we were about to evacuate, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the front, and then a lot of wood and muds rushed down the secret passage and rushed towards us.

Jinhu and I yelled quickly, "Run!"

In an instant, Lin Qian and the shipowner became vanguards and led everyone to run wildly, and the mud and water behind him crushed us.

Unexpectedly, the more anxious it is, the more trouble it is. As Lin Qian ran, he couldn't find the phosphor that Han Sen had sprinkled. Qin Xuanling quickly squeezed in front and continued to guide everyone with his memory.

Fortunately, his memory is pretty good, and we didn't let us run into those maze-like forks, but we suffered a lot along the way.

The more you go back, the more leaks there are, everyone is poured through mud and water. From time to time, they will trip up by the skull on the ground and eat shit, looking extremely embarrassed.

I don’t know how long we stumbled and ran like this, but we finally crawled out of the secret passage before we were flooded by mud.

But what is even more terrifying is that the rain outside this time should be heavier than yesterday's one. The raindrops fell like a high-pressure fire water gun, and it washed away all the mud stuck on our bodies in a few strokes.

We helped each other and returned to the camp with difficulty with aching all over our bodies.

However, when we arrived at the camp, the situation was even worse. Our tents, backpacks and the remaining supplies and equipment were washed away by the rain, and many of them didn't know where to go.

Everyone didn't bother to rest and quickly collected things washed away by the rain, without even breathing evenly.

Seeing that the heavy rain was getting stronger and darker and the sky was getting darker, Professor Wu told us to find a place to live.

When I thought, there was only the cave near the volcano that had been camped before and could shelter from the rain, and other places were simply unavoidable.

When Jin Hu heard that he was going back to the cave, he said helplessly: "Old man, I just came out of that ghost place in the morning, and now he has to go back again. If it weren't for the endless rain, I wouldn't have returned to that dead nest!"

Although the others were reluctant to go back, they could at least take shelter from the rain, so they carried things to the cave.
Chapter completed!
