Chapter Thirteen Survival from Desperation

I don't know how long I spent in a state of confusion. I fell asleep and woke up, woke up and fell asleep again. My chest felt hot, and there was no saliva in my mouth.

Out of boredom, I tore off the dead skin on my lips piece by piece, imagining that a hundred years later, when the next batch of treasure hunters fell from the cave, they would find five mummies surrounding them with resentful eyes.

In the middle of it, I almost had a heart attack! All kinds of pictures that were not consistent with common sense appeared in front of my eyes, and my body functions began to go into chaos.

"Snapped."

I had another auditory hallucination, and I was not far from death.

"Snapped."

"Brother Dao... don't press my feet. If you want to die, stay away from me." The rat's voice seemed to be stuck, as hoarse and harsh as a fish bone.

"I'm not at your place at all." A strange voice sounded next to me.

"Is it Mr. Dong? Go a little over...hey?"

The rat's unpleasant voice suddenly broke out: "Fuck! A wet bag fell from the hole!"

As soon as he finished speaking, with a mouse howling like a drake, something fell from the hole.

"Ouch?"

"Hold!"

"Ouch? Is there someone?" A strange voice suddenly sounded, and the hairs all over my body stood up immediately!

The weirdo next to him jumped out instantly!

"Fuck! We're saved!" Mouse turned on the searchlight, and the sudden light made my vision go blank.

"Little mouse!"

"You are...**! Brother Monkey!"

After a few seconds, I barely adapted to the light, blinked my eyes, and saw a stranger squatting on the ground, with the dagger in the stranger's hand pointed directly at his neck.

The sky has eyes! The "people behind" are here so quickly!

The weirdo relaxed the weapon in his hand, looked at the stranger's face and asked, "Do you know him?"

"This is actually my former fellow disciple! Call me Sun Dasheng, or Brother Monkey." The rat introduced him hurriedly, then roared and tore off the backpack lying on the ground, "Why is it you? Give me water quickly! How much do you have?"

"

Brother Monkey was so frightened by the weirdo that he weakly said: "Just three bottles."

"...It's not enough, you have to die down there with us." The rat drank heavily and made a thirst-quenching sound of "ah".

"Mouse... give me a drink..." Donghuang struggled to sit up with a crazy expression on his face.

I also rushed towards Brother Monkey and drank desperately. The cool liquid moisturized my thirsty throat and restless soul.

"Little mouse, why are you here?"

"We're digging graves, why are you here?"

"I bought a letter."

"What letter?"

Brother Monkey mysteriously approached the mouse's ear and said in a loud voice: "The Overlord's treasure!"

"Ah? So awesome?" Mouse's face was full of disbelief, and then he was suddenly shocked, shaking Brother Monkey's shoulders and said excitedly, "Is this here? I accidentally dug a super big mound?"

"

I was a little speechless. Mouse could go to the Oscars to receive an award, but he actually acted stupid and acted like he didn't know where this place was.

I held back my smile and looked at a few other people, and they also looked surprised! The weirdo was so exaggerated that his jaw was about to be dislocated when he opened his mouth!

What's going on? Everyone has collective amnesia?

Suddenly I realized that people were buying information to hunt for treasures before us, but Donghuang and the others got Mr. Zhang drunk, got wind of the leak, and sneaked ahead to steal business from them!

We are bad people! If we don’t pretend to be innocent, we will fall out!

I quickly rubbed my face and followed the show in a decent manner.

"Hey, what a coincidence! Since when did you start hanging out in Xuzhou, you didn't even tell your brother! You're so accurate at finding the dragon's acupoints. If you meet me this time, you'll be fat to death!" This monkey said

Brother glanced around us, his eyes rested on me, he widened his eyes and exclaimed in a loud voice, "Little mouse, you dug a grave and brought a living sacrifice with you!"

I said in my heart that since we are going to die together soon, I will allow you to reduce my size.

His mineral water turned into an empty bottle in a minute, and the mouse patted his shoulder and laughed: "Brother, thank you for bringing me water. God is wise and allowed us brothers to die in the same year, the same month and the same day.

, there is not a drop of water on us now, and none of your treasures and mine can be dug out!"

"It's okay." Brother Monkey scratched his cheek, put the empty bottle back into the bag, and shouted softly toward the entrance of the bat cave: "Doctor Lin - throw a rope down, pull the bag up and fill it with water

!”

"**, is there another one outside?"

Following Brother Monkey's method, we collected all the empty bottles and containers that could hold water, put them in our backpacks in two trips, and tied ropes to pull them up. After a while, the bottles and cans were filled with sweet groundwater and put down.

I swear, I will never waste water again in this life!

I don’t know when the glasses had been in a coma and fell to the side. Donghuang and I soaked the towel, half stuffed it into the mouth of the glasses, and squeezed out the water to wake him up.

The mouse and the weirdo took a bag of water to open the door of Da Chi Kiss. ​​Not long after, the familiar "crack, click, click" sound of the mechanism was heard from the other end of the stone corridor. The mouse cheered, "It's done, it's done" and jumped up and down.

Run over here.

Brother Monkey sent an empty bottle up again, and then signaled to the savior above to jump down.

There was a muffled sound, and in front of everyone's attention, the benefactor landed on our laid out backpacks.

"This young man, this is our first time meeting you. I need to thank you very much!" The mouse stepped forward with a smile on his face and gave him a hand. "Brother Monkey, who is this?"

"Come on, come on, let's get to know each other!" Brother Monkey seemed to be an enthusiastic person. He scratched his head and ears like a monkey and said: "I don't know what kind of bad luck I had today. I met my long-lost senior brother down there.

, he was a fool and thought this was a big fight, so he got in by accident, we are all our own!"

The savior glanced around us coldly without saying a word.

"Dr. Lin, this is my junior brother Mouse, and the others...are my buddies, look at what a coincidence, we haven't seen each other for several years, but we meet here!" Brother Hou scratched his head and introduced, "Anyway, your requirements are very low.

, we can hook up!"

Mouse immediately said first: "I don't care whether you are here to dig for treasures or antiques. The rules of the road are that I come first, and I pick out the gold and silver treasures first!"

"Look at your future!" Brother Monkey pointed his middle finger at him, "Dr. Lin only wants one thing, and the rest is yours."

"What crappy thing, 24k gold?" Mouse was obviously a money-loving character, "Speak clearly now, don't make me want to eat it!"

Brother Monkey shrugged his shoulders, made a "no comment" gesture, and said with a playful smile: "We haven't seen each other for so many years. You don't care about me, but you just pick up the goods when you come up. Doesn't it hurt our feelings? But...

Dr. Lin has his principles, and I also have mine... If I touch a valuable gadget, hey, little mouse, we two brothers can share it equally!"

I secretly glanced at Dr. Lin, how could he come to this damn place with just a treasure? Both groups of people got the news from Mr. Zhang. Now the competitors have become good brothers. If they had found out earlier, they would have allowed themselves

Wouldn't it be easier if someone brought it back?

While Brother Monkey was handing out water bottles to us, he explained something to the cold Doctor Lin. After a while, he turned back and said: "The grave you want to dig should be the treasure we are looking for. Now you open the one in front of us."

Lu, we saved your lives, so it’s even. Let’s take care of each other. There’s strength in numbers, and we’ll each get what we need when the thing is done. How about that?”

Here, Donghuang also listened to Mo Zi's storytelling and introduced his senior brother. He pondered for a moment and said: "Since we are old acquaintances of Mo Zi, I believe that we should all be well-behaved people. Let's go on together as fate has it!"

As he spoke, he put an index finger up to his lips, then flattened his palms and stretched his palms upward in front of Brother Monkey.

Brother Monkey showed a surprised look, and quickly and respectfully raised his index finger to his lips, and then drew a circle on Dong Huang's palm: "I'm sorry, brother, I thought you and the little mouse came together.

Don’t worry, those who touch gold, we don’t dare to do anything wrong!”

Donghuang nodded, indicating that we can move forward.

I followed him and curiously asked what the gesture meant just now.

His serious expression relaxed again: "It's just a promise."

I wanted to ask again, but he deliberately quickened his pace and kept away from me.

Walking through the long stone corridor for the nth time, Brother Monkey chattered and introduced what the Overlord Treasure was. We obviously knew very well, but we had to pretend to be fresh, excited, and surprised.

The newly acquainted Dr. Lin was silent, neither taking the initiative to speak, nor paying attention to us, and he did not even get close to our boss, Dong Huang.

The big Chiki had disappeared. It seemed that he had sunk under the stone slab like the little Chikis, and a secret passage with downward steps was exposed on the wall.

I said goodbye to the lonely mummy, braced myself and followed Brother Monkey in, but I still felt uncomfortable, and the hairs on the back of my neck stood up automatically.

When I looked back, I met Dr. Lin's extremely cold eyes. I was shocked, and I quickly turned around and continued walking forward. However, I always felt a chill on my back and felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at by him.

Brother Monkey seems to have a very similar personality to Mouse. Although we have just met him, he is quick and straightforward, and we can get a general understanding of him. As for Dr. Lin, I can't guess at all, he is so cold.

It was hair-raising, and the muscles in my back tensed up, as if to resist his knife-sharp gaze.
