At this time, I couldn't control my mood. I don't know whether it was because of the tight time or my curiosity about the ancient tomb below. It's not too early to meet the young master.

We consolidated the equipment and took the cables and some necessary things with us and threw them where they were. Most of the things we didn’t bring were food and some telescopes and other tools. These things were not very necessary for us, so I decided to go down here.

There is no way to turn back, otherwise once you get lost in the forest, you won't have much time to worry about.

The young master was worried that wild animals would eat our food and rations. I told him that food and grass were a small problem. Firstly, I don’t believe that wild animals can eat compressed biscuits. Secondly, we have crossbows and we will find a way to take care of them when the time comes.

Game will never starve to death.

The young master persuaded me to pull out the cable and measure the length. The deep pool was one or two hundred meters deep. I estimated that it would take at least a morning to get down to it. Moreover, the walls of the pool were covered with moss due to the extremely humid environment. It was estimated that we would have to climb.

Sometimes I have to sweat a lot.

I said to the girl: "It's too dangerous here. You'd better not go down. Just wait for us to come down."

The girl tied up her head and paid no attention to me, just packing her equipment.

I said it again and she glared at me but still didn't speak.

I sighed secretly and felt that it was a thorn in my side. I also felt funny in my heart. It seemed like there was no way to discuss it. This girl and I have completely the same temperament.

After arranging everything, everything was tied firmly. The young master threw off the rope and we tied one end to a stone and then stuck both sides to make a sailor's ring. I climbed down immediately.

As soon as I stepped on the first step, I squeaked and slid. The wall of the pool was too slippery and I couldn't get up. After kicking for several times, I just wandered around in place and couldn't get down.

Fortunately, there were many vines growing out of the cliffs or gaps. I tried to pull on them and used some strength to get down. I had a feeling that the walk would be very hard.

It took me a full twenty minutes to step on the horizontal pine tree below. I stepped hard with my feet and found that there was no problem. The roots were firmly grasped into the cracks in the rocks and should be able to bear the weight of the three of us.

I whistled to the people above and asked them to come down on their own, so I grabbed the side of the pool wall and looked down. We were very close to the waterfall and saw nine huge waterfalls, near or far, pouring down around you with a barrel-like sound.

The deep pool is like a sound collector filled with the roaring sound of water.

It's foggy below, but you can see a huge rock in the middle of the bottom of the pool. The waterfall water washes over the rock and then flows into the surrounding caves that flow into the bottom of the pool. There doesn't seem to be any artificial structures.

If Liu Qu's mausoleum is built here, how can the problem of surface water leakage be solved? I feel strange. This place, which is the best treasure cave in Feng Shui theory, should not be suitable for underground construction according to our common sense. Is this Feng Shui nonsense?

The young master and the girl came down next to me one after another, making squeaks of pain. The young master was too frightened to look at the girl below, but he was shocked by the scenery around him.

We rested for a while, but the same trick continued. The next section was much longer than the first section, and because there was a waterfall near the bottom, it was impossible for me to pass through the waterfall vertically, so we had to move a certain distance laterally.

.

I'm not professional at all when climbing cliffs. I just pulled the vines and moved carefully little by little. The light here was already very dark when we climbed, but the sun had already risen now because of the angle.

It got even darker and I had to take out a flashlight and bite it in my mouth.

All my energy was concentrated on my hands and feet. Just when I was about to touch a protrusion on the pool wall, I suddenly heard a very slight sound very close by.

At first I thought it was my ears that were having trouble with the sound of the water here, because logically you can't hear anything in such a noisy environment.

After climbing a few more steps, I found that the sound suddenly came out again. Although it was slight, I was sure it was there. It seemed like something with an iron chain was twitching.

I thought about the people with iron chains on their feet that I saw, and my heart suddenly stood up and I started to sweat. I judged the direction carefully and found that it was coming from my left. I put my probe over and saw that there was a crack on the wall of the pool over there.

The outside of the gap is covered with many plant vines. I didn't see it when I crawled through it just now.

The young master yelled at me and asked me why I didn't leave. I was curious. It sounded like some living creature was tied to a chain and struggling to get away. I gestured to them to stop, and then I started to move toward them.

The gap was closed.

There was wind blowing out of the gap. It might be connected to some cave in the mountain. As I got closer, the rattling sound got louder and louder, which made me nervous. In the roaring environment, my mind went blank and I could barely hear it.

The sound of the chains shaking.

I crawled into the gap and saw that it was very deep inside. I stepped in with one foot, and the young master outside still yelled. I said to myself, "Why are you so anxious?" I ignored him and went in.

A lot of vines also grew into the gap, covering both sides of the gap. I walked a few steps and the light dimmed. I raised my flashlight to shine in bit by bit.

There was indeed something deep in the gap that looked like a person leaning there. There seemed to be the sound of water inside, but the sound of iron chains could not be heard.

I held my breath and looked at it with a flashlight, and couldn't help but feel a slight thump in my heart.

It turns out that at the end of the gap is a small puddle of water. There is a dead man lying in it. His skin is basically soaked to death. His face has been soaked white and his head is covered. It’s not clear what he looks like. But from the look of him, he should be dead.

long time.

I subconsciously covered my nose and leaned down to take a closer look. I found that this person was wearing clothes similar to ours. He should be no more than ten or twenty years old. How could there be modern people here? I felt very strange. Could it be that he was a mountain man who got lost near here?

?Or our colleagues?

I looked through his clothes and found a lot of soaked paper that was so rotten that I couldn't even see it. But I found some plastic food stamps and the like, which must be from our contemporaries. I

He threw the paper aside and accepted the food ticket. Then he checked his body and felt something was wrong. Didn't he hear the sound of chains just now? There are no chains on this man?

At this time, I suddenly realized something and shuddered, and I stepped back involuntarily.

There seems to be something underneath the body that sticks tightly to the back of the body.

When I looked carefully, it seemed that it was also a corpse submerged in the water. It was completely black and I couldn't see its full shape. The two corpses were stuck together tightly for some reason, as if the one in the back grew out of the back of the one in front.

A black iron chain was tied to the backbone of the "black corpse". The sound just now might have come from this thing.

I have a bad feeling. I don't know why this person died here, but it's definitely not a good thing to die in such a bizarre way. It's better to stay out of other people's business.

I turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a chain rattling from the puddle. At the same time, I heard an indescribable cry, which sounded like the sound of a person suffocating.

When I looked back, I saw that the "black corpse" that had sunk in the water was actually moving. The sound of the iron chain was rattling. I looked up and saw that the end of the iron chain was a stone cave. The black body only needed a moment.

If you pull the iron chain more, the iron chain will be pulled out of the hole, but as soon as you loosen the iron chain, the mechanism inside will be pulled back into the cave.

I knew it was broken and I couldn't tell what it was that got up. I touched the crossbow behind me and placed it on the young master. I cursed secretly and turned around and ran away.

I had only run a few steps when suddenly something rushed towards me from behind, and a fishy wind rushed straight to my back. It went very fast.

In an instant, I gritted my teeth and slammed to the side, and the thing behind me jumped away. I didn't have time to look back, I rushed out of the gap, grabbed a vine, turned around, and rolled over to the wall of the pool, shouting:

"Master, cover!"

Before I finished speaking, a black claw suddenly came out of the gap and ran towards me to catch me. I quickly swung out of the way and almost got caught by him. But the iron chain

It has obviously reached its limit, so the thing inside can only stretch out a hand to grab my body and cannot get out.

The young master on the side was far away from us and couldn't see clearly what it was. He shouted to me: "Old Xu, get out of the way!"

When I saw the vine next to me, I turned around, pulled up another vine, and then slid down to let the position out. The young master immediately bent his bow and nocked an arrow with a snap, and a bamboo arrow whizzed out like lightning.

He went straight to the black claws at the mouth of the gap.

I thought to myself that if you don't get hit this time, just wait for the scream when the bamboo arrow shoots into the gap. But before I could react, I felt my shoulder shake. The flying bamboo arrow actually pierced my shoulder.

superior.

As soon as I looked at my mother, I yelled in my heart, you are a stupid young master, what kind of accuracy are you? But before I could say anything, the sharp pain in my shoulder made me let go of my hand. I couldn't hold on to anything.

I felt like I was losing gravity and falling straight down.

The time was so short that I didn't think about anything at the time. My only thought was that my life, Xu Sanqing's, would end in this Nine Dragons Pit.

Soon after I fell, I crashed into a waterfall. I fell to the ground and felt a sharp pain, and then I was immediately rushed out by the huge water flow.

In a panic, I grabbed a protruding stone bud and hung it on the side of the waterfall mouth. I looked up and saw that the rocks at the waterfall mouth had been built into a dragon-like waterfall.

The water is spit out from the dragon's mouth.

The young master on the side was yelling at me to stop moving, and then he took the girl and moved towards us. How could I hold on? Suddenly, everything went dark, and I slipped away. In an instant, I fell straight into the clear water under the pool.

inside.

His ears snapped and he fell straight into the water. Suddenly, no sound could be heard from the surroundings. When he entered the water, his posture was not adjusted properly. His whole body was shaken and he vomited out a mouthful of blood. Fortunately, he didn't faint. He struggled to stick his head out, but the water from the waterfall above

I couldn't float from a height of tens of meters.

At this moment, suddenly there were two water pillars sticking into the water. I turned around and saw that the girl and the young master had also jumped down. When they saw me, they immediately swam towards me and caught me, and then the three of them joined together.

Run up with all your strength.

Their hands were not injured. Even so, we used all our strength to get out of the water. They pushed me onto the round rock in the middle and then climbed up. I covered my hands and cursed at the young master: "

You monkey, tell me if you want to kill me."

He tore off his clothes and looked at my wounds. An authentic crossbow can shoot through the human body within 200 meters. This one is obviously not so powerful, but it can penetrate very deep. When the young master touches it, I feel terrible pain.

The girl was so distressed that she burst into tears. The young master wanted to pull out the arrow for me, but she stopped him and scolded him: "What kind of brother are you to hurt my brother like this?"

The young master kept apologizing to me and said: "You don't know that my aim was very accurate, but somehow it turned. It must be because of the wind."

I said stop making excuses and help me deal with it.

The arrow pierced my shoulder blade, so it didn't penetrate. The young master pulled it out at once, causing me a lot of pain. Then he gave me Yunnan Baiyao to cover the wound. After they finished applying it, I was sweating coldly and almost fainted.

After bandaging, I looked at my watch. I thought it would take at least one morning to get down here. Now it's only around nine o'clock. It seems that it's better to be more direct. The young master asked me if I wanted to take a rest. There was still time anyway. I thought about it.

If it still doesn't work, who knows what will happen in the ancient tomb? Let's just go to work.

The young master helped me up. The round rock in the center of the pool was very large. There were waterfalls on all sides, which had formed water channels one after another. However, the middle of the waterfall was still relatively dry.

We walked inside. According to Feng Shui theory, the best position for Feng Shui should be at the bottom of the rock, but it seemed that the stone was a whole without any signs of being processed.

We searched carefully several times but couldn't find it, so the young master muttered whether the thing we were looking for was under the rock under our feet and they had sealed the entrance with a whole rock?

I looked at the size of this stone and said it was impossible. This stone weighs several thousand tons at least. Even with the current technology, we cannot move it around. We also saw it underwater just now. This stone is a natural rock and here.

The material has been weathered and corroded and the situation is very similar, so it cannot be what he said.
