Chapter 159: Underwater Cave

There were more and more corpses appearing in the water. Under the dizzy white light, in less than ten seconds, there were almost no sight of corpses before us. There were even a few behind us, and we couldn't count them. These corpses were relatively well preserved. Perhaps because they were soaked in water for many years, the phosphorus powder in the bones was not evaporated and emitted a white light with ghost energy.

The originally dark rock cracks were lit up by the ghost fires, but this light did not make us feel the slightest temperature. Instead, it made people feel like falling into a cold ice hell, and they couldn't stop their scalp from numbing.

Lao Zhong looked at the flashlight for a long time before he said calmly, "It's not right. It seems that someone deliberately concentrated the body in the pool. If this was once a battlefield, the body would not have been placed so neatly. Perhaps someone deliberately did it when cleaning the battlefield."

Seeing that he was surrounded by the dead float in the water, Ge Zhuang was anxious, and held the pistol in his hand, pulled the safety bolt open, and said fiercely, "I think these guys are probably in a meeting to discuss how to deal with us. Time is too late, and I won't take the initiative!"

I pressed Ge Zhuang's shoulder and told him not to act rashly, let alone speak. Good and bad spirits, this fat man can make the dead live with a stinky mouth. We are still floating on the underground river at this moment. What if the corpse really moves?

I couldn't help but think of the strange dream I had before. In the dream, I was torn into pieces by some "faceless people". Isn't the corpse scattered under the water the "faceless people"?

Thinking of this, my scalp began to shiny, and my eyes were fixed on the corpses in the pond. Fortunately, these corpses had no movement, and it seemed that the things I was worried about did not exist.

Even though we seem to be safe on the surface, I dare not take it lightly. My eyes were focused on my hands, and the airbags drifted farther and farther with the water flow. When we arrived in the middle, the water surface was already deeper, and the corpses followed my sight and sank into the deep flowing water, as if they had never appeared.

"Huh!" I wiped off the cold sweat from my forehead and took a deep breath. I was about to speak, but suddenly I "gurgled" under my feet and a big water sees out, spreading like a washbasin, which scared me so hard that I almost screamed.

"What is it!" Ge Zhuang immediately turned his gun and aimed tightly at the direction where the water splashed. In the deadly silence, everyone closed their mouths tightly, and their faces were twitching slightly.

Gululu...

The sound of bubbles under the water continued, and the deep pool of black water became relatively turbid. After waiting for a long time, we never found anything lurking under the water. We gradually became less nervous. Ge Zhuang looked at us with confusion and said a cold joke, "Someone farted in the water? Why can't we smell the stench?"

Chen Yun said, "Maybe something is buried under the water, it shouldn't be a living thing. Take out the rope and tie it up for me. I want to dive into the water and take a look."

I said let's forget it, the dark river is getting deeper and deeper. What if there are zongzi below? Chen Yun turned around and asked me, "Is it possible for zongzi to live underwater?"

I have never thought about this problem. Experience comes from the accumulation of practice. Although I have set up many tombs, I have never encountered rice dumplings in the water. I guess this thing is also afraid of water.

I pondered, "Even if there are no rice dumplings, there may be something else..." Chen Yun interrupted me and told me not to say anything. We don't have much time, and the remaining food is not enough to support us. If we don't enter the tiger's den, how can we get a tiger's baby? Do you think?

I nodded and nodded and said I would go down. If something happens, I can still face it in time.

This is not a show of strength. Speaking of water nature, no one here is better than me. I have been soaked in the river since I was a child. If I go into the water, the chance of getting out of danger will definitely be higher than Chen Yun.

She said OK, then be careful. If you encounter a situation, remember to pull the rope immediately and we will pull you up! I smiled bitterly, "What's the use of pulling it up? This airbag is hollow and cannot withstand too much impact. If there are really rice dumplings underwater, no one can escape!"

As I spoke, I had tied the rope to my waist, took a deep breath at the dark water surface, and adjusted the faint sense of fear in my heart. Everyone was somewhat claustrophobic, especially in such a dim and claustrophobic space, and when I got into the water, I would panic inexplicably. This is even me.

Because I have been making a living on the river since I was a child, I understand the erratic nature and danger of water better.

After taking a few deep breaths, I suppressed the faint sense of fear in my heart, gently slid into the water, and then sank into the bubbles as everyone looked at me.

While diving quickly, I also held it with my backhand and dived into the bottom of the water about seven or eight meters deep. The water was deep. The searchlight tied to my head could see some black aquatic plants. The bottom of the river was surprisingly clean. It was not as I imagined, and it was covered with mud everywhere. Instead, it was paved with very neat blue bricks and placed very neatly.

It seems that a thousand years ago, when this underground river had not yet formed, it should have been a very spacious and straight road. It was only when it was covered by water flow that it seemed so desolate.

When I was observing the environment, I heard a bubble sound in my ears again. I hurriedly looked up and saw that at the end of the searchlight, there seemed to be a huge arched cave. The walls of the cave were very thick and made of hard basalt. From a distance, it seemed that a hideous mouth was opened in the mountain wall.

In my heart, I simply suppressed the huge water pressure and continued to sink, and soon came to the cave. The bubbles that had emerged from the water before should have emerged from here.

The top of the huge cave has a large piece of scraped area, and it is written with curved patterns on it into several crooked large characters. It is more like a picture than a character, because I don’t recognize a single character.

In front of the cave filled with the underworld, two huge stone men stood, carved from bluestone more than one person tall, with a lifelike image, with blue clothes and armor standing there majestic. It makes people feel extremely surprised.

Although I don’t know how many years have been sunk at the bottom of the water, the two stone statues are extremely clean. Not only does there be no mud and sand on it, there is not even the moss and aquatic plants that should have been covered on it. The surface is also very smooth and there is no trace of corrosion from time to time.

It seems that the underground river flow also plays a protective role invisibly. If these two stone statues were directly exposed to the air, it would be impossible to preserve such a good thing.
