Chapter 43 Dark River
"Three days." Wang Kui told me this answer, saying that they met that group of people three days ago, and the location was here. Wang Kui was unlucky enough, and he was killed just because he said one more word.
Going here means leaving him to fend for himself. If he is lucky, he can be rescued. If he is unlucky, he will have no choice but to die here. Obviously, his luck is relatively good.
"Hehe, Boss Wang, do you mean that you have been sleeping here with the dead for three full days?" The fat man suddenly came over and said with a calm face.
Wang Kui's face immediately darkened, and he couldn't say a word even though he pursed his lips. The fat man laughed and said: "Boss Wang, don't be so stingy! I know, you just felt embarrassed and flustered when we called you just now and you didn't speak.
. Indeed, it is a bit embarrassing to be put in a coffin and starve for several days, and still look disgraced. But we are not outsiders, and we won’t laugh at you. Just talk to us and give us some experience.
How does it feel to be locked in a coffin? Doesn't it feel particularly exciting and enjoyable in that dark and narrow place?"
Wang Kui couldn't bear what he said, and immediately yelled: "Damn fat man, I heard people say that you have a very mean mouth before, but now it's not only mean, you just don't deserve a slap. Do you want to know how you are being treated?"
How does it feel to be locked in there? Can I try to get you in now?"
The fat man grinned. I was not angry, but said: "Oh, Mr. Gua, I am not so lucky. In this life, you can only marry a wife once, and you can only enter a coffin once. You have a lot of luck this time."
You should feel lucky that you came out, most people don't have such luck."
Now I can tell that the fat man is not curious, he is deliberately trying to talk against Wang Kui. The reason is probably that he is still remembering the incident in Nanling. This is not surprising, the old boy's intention was
Concealing it has done us terrible harm, and now I think about it and I still feel very uncomfortable. The old man was the one who made the decision. We have no way to blame the old man, so we have to take it out on Wang Kui. The fat man’s behavior is like every time I see him
Even Wang Kui would not give him a good look.
Wang Kui is also a smart man. Seeing our attitude, he knew what we were thinking, so he didn't say anything anymore. I think the atmosphere is very stiff. I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles there will be in the future. If we continue to act like this,
This is not a good thing for all of us. He immediately smoothed things over: "Okay, let's not mention this matter. Since my grandfather is taking you alone, it means that he trusts you very much. Can you tell me my grandfather's identity?"
Intend?"
Wang Kui thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "I really don't know much about this matter, but you should also know that your grandfather is very thoughtful and does things step by step. Even the words he says have his purpose.
and intentions. I think the only person who can know your grandfather’s specific plans is our boss.”
"Shui Ling?" I think he must be telling the truth. With the old man's suspicious character, he is unlikely to tell others his plans casually. I am the best example.
The appearance of Wang Kui has added a lot to the reputation of this team. After all, he is an experienced veteran. I am afraid that even the old cripple can't compare. He can give us suggestions many times in the past, which should make us walk safer.
After walking for a short distance, the terrain began to slope downwards and the ground began to become more and more humid. Soon we heard the sound of water and there should be an underground river ahead.
Sure enough, we soon saw the water flow, not a single river, but a large area of water. Part of the undercurrent we saw earlier gathered here through the gap between the two mountains. Next to it there were
Several streams of water flow into here together, and on the other side of the water, we can see that it splits into several streams, and then flows to different places.
"Since ancient times, sages have emerged from Shandong, and the undercurrents here are really extending in all directions!" Wang Kui said with a sigh.
"I said, old boy, what you said is a little bit wrong! Why is there a sage from Shandong, and it has half a dime to do with this undercurrent? Have you been locked in a coffin for so long that your head has been suffocated?
, you just spoke a little incoherently?"
Wang Kui was not angry because of the fat man's words. He just said calmly: "Shandong is located on the coast, with the Yangtze River in the south and the Yellow River in the north. In the past, the heads of these two dragons were here, so there were saints such as Confucius and Mencius. Although later
The Yellow River has changed its course, and the momentum here is a bit weaker, but it is not much different. Most of the underground rivers flow into these two rivers, and they also have the potential to move like dragons. Looking at the complexity and change here, it is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
place."
"It seems to make some sense, but what does this have to do with us?"
"Of course there are some. The top of the wolf's nest is not far from Mount Tai in the east. If my guess is correct, we are already far away from the range of the top of the wolf's nest. We should be close to the edge of Mount Tai now. If we continue to follow
Going down this road, we may be able to reach directly near Mount Tai. Therefore, the water system below must be more complicated than what we see now. We may encounter some dangerous places, which requires us to be careful when walking.
Just be careful."
"Danger? What dangers will you encounter?"
"This is not necessarily true. For example, the terrain here is humid, which is very unfavorable for walking. For example, there are often some cold-blooded animals living in such dark and humid places. Some are very big, and some are poisonous. It's okay if you don't encounter them.
, but if we encounter it, it may cause us a lot of trouble, and this is a danger."
I have to admit that this is very reasonable. I have encountered many such situations before. The darker and humid the place is and there is more living water, the easier it is for some cold-blooded animals to grow, and many of them are very aggressive.
If you are strong, you should naturally be careful.
"But there are several forks here, with and without water flow. Which one should we take?" We are following the footsteps of the group of people led by the Seven Stars. Before, there was a single route. We just need to go forward. But now
There are multiple options. If you go wrong, the final result will definitely be very different, so the choice now is particularly important. So I need to ask his opinion.
"In my opinion, we should take the water route!" Wang Kui suggested.
