Chapter 160 Back Mountain Cave (8) 2nd update
Soon, Wu Chen cleared out a small cave entrance that could allow a person to crawl in.
Wu Chen was the first to enter the cave holding a torch. He first looked at the cave entrance carefully, but there was nothing special about it, and then he called the people behind him to come in.
The last one in the second year of high school came in to take the torch, and Wu Chen blocked the entrance of the cave with stones. For Wu Chen, these stones were just a matter of picking up and putting them down, but for those at the bottom of the mountain, it took a lot of effort. some time.
Song Gu looked at the darkness in the cave and felt very nervous, but he couldn't show it, so he found a question that he couldn't figure out and asked:
"There is such a weird thing guarding the entrance of the cave. I saw piles of bones at the entrance of the cave. You also said that thing can eat people. How did those men in black get in?"
Yu Shi'an is the same as Song Gu. , just as he didn’t know what to say to distract his nervous mood, after hearing Song Gu’s question, he immediately replied: “There are still people who have to be sent to the cave every month. How did they escape from those people?"
The sophomore student held the torch for Wu Chen and turned around and said, "There must be something on his body, maybe through the smell, maybe there is some mechanism that he wants to count on. I’m afraid that thing can’t recognize people.”
Yu Shian and Song Gu nodded in unison.
Wu Chen blocked the entrance to the cave, turned around, took the torch and said, "Follow me closely and don't touch anything in the cave."
After Wu Chen finished speaking, he cautiously walked ahead.
The entrance of the cave was a little narrow, but after walking four or five meters, it suddenly became wider. A torch could not see the mountains on both sides. Wu Chen stopped and said softly: "There should be a mechanism to light it. There is a candlelight somewhere, at least I can see the way clearly, otherwise it will be troublesome for Su Chang to come back."
"If there is one at the entrance of the cave, let's go back and look for it?" asked the second grade student.
Wu Chen said ‘hmm’ and was about to turn around when he heard a faint moan.
“Can you hear me?” Wu Chen asked hurriedly.
"Listen, what do you hear?" the sophomore asked nervously.
"It seems like someone is moaning. You can't hear it, just because it's far away from here, but you shouldn't be able to hear the sound in the cave!" Wu Chen couldn't figure out, this cave can How big is it? He could tell that the sound came from deep inside the cave, but because of the noise, he couldn't hear the exact location.
"Are you sure you are calling... someone?" The sophomore asked again.
"Look for the mechanism first." Wu Chen turned around and returned to the entrance of the cave.
"Wu's business is waiting a moment!" Song Gu stopped Wu Chen: "Is it possible that the mechanism at the entrance of the cave is not only for lighting candles, but what if there is another mechanism that is a hidden arrow trap?"
Wu Chen said: "There is that thing guarding the entrance of the cave, and no one or ghost can come in. There will be no other things in this place, and only their own people will come in and out at all times. Su Chang is very confident in the evil ghost and will not come in again." There are others."
Yu Shi'an hurriedly said: "The water in the Taoist temple is so magical, will it be known to others, and someone can break in? "It's not difficult."
Wu Chen said hurriedly: "The water in Taoist temple is the same as elsewhere, there is nothing special."
After that, Wu Chen held up a torch and looked at the mountain carefully. This is just like when you go home, there is a switch at the door. If this is true, it means that Su Chang is not always in the cave, and there are times when he returns to the cave alone.
Sure enough, Wu Chen looked for a moment and saw a smooth stone surface. He pressed it gently without hesitation and heard a 'bang' sound, and there was a faint light in the cave.
Wu Chen looked into the cave and saw that several candles were lit around the mountain wall.
Wu Chen stared at it. The cave was almost as big as half a football field. The light was not enough to see clearly in the cave. It was still dim. Wu Chen blinked a few times and adapted. After a moment, when I looked carefully again, I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The cave is not too high, and is like an oval. There are dozens of pillars standing irregularly on both sides of the cave. It is hard to tell whether they are made of stone or wood. There is something like flowing water under the pillars. The small canal is winding and winding, and there is a road in the middle of the cave. It goes downhill first, and then goes uphill after passing the pillars, and there is another cave entrance.
"What's the use of having so many pillars? They don't look like decorative objects." Song Gu asked.
Wu Chen did not speak, he was busy comforting himself.
The mountain in the cave didn't look like it was carved out, but rather like it was formed naturally. Wu Chen couldn't see clearly and it was hard to judge. The area around the mountain was clean, but he could see clearly what was between the pillars. He had seen something bigger. At this scene, Wu Chen's heart had to beat faster.
I saw countless ghosts floating between the pillars. It can be said that ghosts are fighting ghosts. Although the scale is smaller than that of the mountain col, it is still quite spectacular.
Wu Chen pointed at the group of ghosts below and turned around to share something. He opened his mouth and sighed.
The second year of high school students keenly caught the helplessness on Wu Chen's face and asked softly: "Is there a ghost in this cave?"
Wu Chen did not answer, but sighed again and said: "Don't move yet, I'll go over and ask."
Wu Chen said he went over to ask, but in fact he only took two steps forward. The dim light in the cave undoubtedly made the scene in front of him a bit more terrifying. If these ghosts were all dressed in the same uniform and made up, it might not be possible. They are so terrifying, colorful and have different shapes. Fortunately, there are not many facing him right now.
"Are you trapped by Su Chang's formation?" Wu Chen asked loudly.
The floating ghosts all turned to look at Wu Chen. Wu Chen took a step forward and closed his eyes, saying hurriedly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!"
After waiting for a moment, there was no movement. Wu Chen opened his eyes little by little and quickly closed them again. On the top, he groaned and muttered: "Can't we unify the looks?"
Just after finishing speaking, Wu Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and he understood that those evil ghosts that can hurt people's lives basically all have the same look. appearance, but ordinary ghosts will have their own appearance.
Wu Chen looked up at the top of the cave. Several pillars did not reach his head. The flowing water below... In other words, the pillars and flowing water were one of the formations. No wonder the forest outside the cave was humid, and there was no river in or out. , that is, the water in the cave flows out at will after leaving the formation.
"If I break the formation, can you leave?" Wu Chen asked again.
"Are you... talking to us?"
Wu Chen stared at the top of the pillar and nodded and said, "Yes! I can see you and hear you."
The ghosts are a little restless.
A ghost shouted: "If the formation is broken, our bodies must be destroyed before we can leave."
"Where are your bodies?"
The ghosts came together again. Point to the opposite hole.
Wu Chen frowned and asked: "Su Chang keeps you here to turn you into more powerful evil ghosts?"
"I know about this, he is training Yin soldiers."< br>
After hearing these words, Wu Chen felt that his hair stood on end, and a picture immediately appeared in his mind: wherever the green-skinned and fanged evil spirits passed by on the battlefield, corpses were everywhere, and the soldiers were terrified and helpless... (This chapter End)
