Chapter 42, The Underground Kingdom (2)
After landing, the ground was relatively loose, and it was all sand that cushioned the impact of my descent. I raised my head and looked at the distance of nearly thirty meters from the top of the fall, which was really fateful.
Patting off the sand on my body, when I got up from the ground, I looked back, and at this glance, all the qiē in front of me surprised me, a huge underground ancient city really unfolded in front of me, a huge area. A vast space, a place where modern humans have never set foot before.
I had vaguely seen this underground kingdom when I was whereabouts before, but now that I really faced it, I still felt the impact from my soul.
Many times, modern people will be shocked and impressed by the wisdom of the ancient people, this is not a pretext but a truth, when this yellow dry city appeared in front of me, the strange houses, the huge city walls, and even the heavy and rusty bronze gate were so clear, I was speechless.
It wasn't until a moment later that I realized that the four of us had separated when we fell, and that I was standing alone in front of this huge deserted city, surrounded by silence, and I don't know if it was because of the quicksand, but the huge hollow of the sand dunes above me was slowly merging together. Little by little, the light gradually dissipated, and darkness enveloped me.
At this moment, I began to panic in my heart, after all, I was still a child, and I still relied on Xu Buddha more or less when I was by Xu Fo's side, but at this time, I was standing alone in such a dangerous and unknown place, to be honest, maybe a monster would pop up in the next second and kill me.
However, even though I knew that I was in danger, I still couldn't do anything, and when the hole above my head completely disappeared and the sunlight was completely invisible, the underground kingdom was also plunged into deep darkness, and I only had a ghost gourd and a helmet with a lighting function. And a small dagger to carry with you, and nothing else.
Put on the helmet and turn on the light switch, the light emitted by this helmet with lighting function is not very bright, and the range that can be illuminated is only a few meters in front of me, but with the light, I feel more or less comforted.
"Anyone? Can you hear the predecessors of Xu Buddha? ”
I shouted a few times into the darkness around me, but the sound quickly echoed, presumably sonic crashing off the walls. Unfortunately, I waited for a while without any answer.
Forced to be helpless, I didn't necessarily have to wait for death on the spot, so I could only hold the small dagger and raise my feet to walk towards the underground kingdom, stepping on the soft sand, and walking to the bronze gate with one foot high and one foot low.
In China, there are very few cities with copper gates, let alone the bronze in front of me, most of the gates in ancient China were made of wood, the first is easy to repair, the second is easy to shape, and the third is cheap. But the door in front of me was strange, rusty on it, but I pushed it. I could still feel the weight of the bronze gate, I was not tall at the time, I was only seven years old, and I certainly didn't have much strength, and I couldn't push the gate open with both hands, so I wondered if there could be any hole in this gate or the nearby city wall for me to get into.
Sure enough, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and after I walked around the bronze gate, I really found a hole in the corner of the nearby wall, about thirty centimeters high, and I looked inside, and the whole deserted city was quiet, and those houses were lined up one after another in the darkness.
What kind of ancient city is this, and what is its origin? Does it belong to the ancient country of Loulan? Why is it so well preserved, but not a single figure can be seen? I didn't even think about these questions at the time, and I got into the cave in a hurry, in fact, I just wanted to find a way out for myself, but just as I got into the hole, and as soon as I stepped on the ground, I seemed to hear a low sigh from the dark deserted city, the voice was very soft, but the surroundings were too quiet, and this sigh made me listen to it rightly.
"What people!"
I hurriedly got up from the ground and shouted at the inside of the deserted city, but there was no response, I couldn't help but touch my head and comfort myself in my heart: "I probably heard it wrong, I'm too nervous." ”
It was dark all around, and I walked cautiously forward, the sand did not make a loud sound, and the faint light seemed so small and weak at this time, and I had to look around for a moment with every step I took, and time was stretched for a long time at this time, and every second I spent here was as if I had spent a century.
Loneliness and darkness are often the deadliest weapons to defeat the weak, but I have a deep understanding of the darkness in front of me.
Soon, I touched the first yellow wall, there was no trace of moisture on the air-dried wall, my fingers hurt when the dry wall rubbed, I looked into the house, the door of the house was also cast in bronze, I reached out and pushed, to my surprise was that the bronze door was actually hidden, I looked inside the crack in the door, it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly, but at this moment I was suddenly patted on the shoulder, which scared me half to death!
"Ahh Who is it! "It's just a stand-in.
I subconsciously roared, and at the same time waved the dagger in my hand and turned around to stab, this is all a subconscious action, and it is an unconscious chain reaction after I was frightened, who would have thought that my turn around and stabbing hand has not been completely stabbed out, but was firmly grasped by others, and my wrist was grabbed at that time!
"You're trying to stab me to death!"
I heard a voice whispering in my ear, raised my head and looked over, the light on the hat illuminated the other party's face, it was actually Wu Bing! He didn't turn on the flashlight and grabbed my hand tightly.
"Wu, Director Wu! How did you end up here? ”
I hurriedly took my hand back, and looked at Director Wu's face in surprise, the other party hurriedly took two steps back, and before I could answer my question, I heard a low roar not far from the deserted city, I was startled, and at the same time saw that at the same moment when the roar came, Wu Bing's face in front of me also changed, and he grabbed my hand and pushed me into the earthen house behind me.
Entering the house, he hurriedly closed the bronze door, and also pressed out the lamp of the helmet on my head, as soon as the light went out, the surroundings immediately became dark, and the two of us squatted on the ground, only to hear Wu Bing whisper: "Wan Lin, don't make a sound!" Something is chasing me! ”
He didn't say exactly what it was, but I could probably guess from his nervous face that this thing chasing him was some unclean stuff in this deserted city.
I was about to speak, but I heard another roar, this time closer to us, Wu Bing covered my mouth and shook his head at me.
"Kown, Kow, Kow......"
The sound of heavy footsteps came, but the sand under our feet was the sand, and if we could make such a loud sound on the sand, how heavy would it be for the thing chasing Wu Bing!
I looked up, and I could vaguely see through the window of the earthen house, and there was a faint green light flickering, this green light was very different from the light of the spirit eyes I encountered, the green light in the spirit eyes had a demonic aura, but the green light I encountered this time seemed to have no trace of life.
It swayed outside the earthen house, the footsteps have not been broken, Wu Bing and I didn't dare to make a sound, and even Wu Bing's palm covering my mouth had a trace of sweat beads coming out, after a while, the monster retreated, and soon disappeared into the darkness, when the surroundings became quiet again, I pushed Wu Bing's hand away, and asked anxiously: "Director Wu, what is that?" Is it a monster? ”
Wu Bing shook his head and said: "I don't know, I fell from the top and fell into a mud house, and I broke a coffin-like thing at that time, I didn't react at first, but I just got up from the ground and saw that there was a corpse-like thing lying in this coffin." Then its hands and feet began to swing, and I rushed out of it in fright, and when I saw the light, it ran towards you, and the flashlight was lost! ”
At the same time as he spoke, neither of us noticed that in the corner of the earthen house, a coffin was slowly being opened......
