Meng Jiu couldn't help but asked after hearing Du Yiyu's words: "Do you know this sword?"

"Where did you get it?"

"I don't know! But this knife recognizes me very well. No matter where it is or where I am, it will automatically come to me whenever I need it." He handed the knife to Du Yiyu and said, "Want to take a look?"

Du Yiyu took a step back unhurriedly, which made Meng Jiu feel a little abrupt, and the hand holding the knife stopped in mid-air. Du Yiyu seemed to have no intention of holding the knife, but his eyes passed across the blade, as if he remembered something, and asked in a hateful voice: "Then

Why didn't you use it last time? No matter how powerful Chen Xiaoling is, she can't withstand this knife."

Meng Jiu chuckled and said, "That was my intention. If I take out this knife, can I still force you to show your true skills?"

Meng Jiu stroked the blade gently, looking at the deep thought in Du Yiyu's eyes, he couldn't help but ask: "What's going on with this sword?"

"Why are you asking me about your knife?"

"Because you obviously know where it comes from!"

Du Yiyu said: "Yes, I know, but I don't plan to tell you now."

Meng Jiu smiled bitterly and said, "So stingy?"

Du Yiyu smiled slightly and said: "I'm just lazy! Shura swords are divided into male and female. If you can find the female sword, then this sword can be of real use."

"What's the use?"

"Let's ask after we find the female sword."

"Hey, don't leave. Then you have to tell me how to find the female sword, right?"

"Opposites attract, sooner or later they will meet." Du Yiyu turned around and returned to the room, waving his hand towards Meng Jiu: "If you don't sleep, it will be dawn."

Meng Jiu looked at Du Yiyu strangely, feeling that he seemed to be hiding something. Is there something wrong with this knife...?

Early the next morning, the three of them went to the mountain again, and after a lot of effort, they finally dug out a hole.

"Good fellow, it turns out there is another mystery underground!" Meng Jiu shouted and asked Song Xiao, "Where does this cave lead to?"

"I don't know. I've never heard of this mountain being empty."

Du Yiyu sighed secretly. It seemed that they were probably going to dig into the ground...

The hole was not as deep as expected, and Meng Jiu stepped on the bottom before he could go down for long. He shook his flashlight upward to signal that the two of them could come down.

Meng Jiu looked around with his flashlight and found that the cave extended horizontally to the east. The cave was very short, so Meng Jiu had to squat down and look inside. It was pitch black. Meng Jiu frowned and climbed up and said: "Down below

There is also a horizontal hole, and I don’t know where it leads. I need to bring a torch to test the oxygen. And it looks like I have to crawl." He looked at Song Xiao and said, "It might be a little dangerous, do you really want to go down?"

Song Xiao seemed a little scared, but he still nodded firmly. Meng Jiu said: "Okay. Let's go then."

After getting down from the cave, Du Yiyu deliberately climbed into the horizontal hole first, with Song Xiao in the middle and Meng Jiu behind.

The cave was pitch black, there was no wind, and there was only a faint smell of stone and earth.

At the beginning, all three of them turned on their flashlights, but after climbing for about 10 minutes, the cave still did not end. In order to save power, only Du Yiyu turned on his flashlights to explore the path, while Song Xiao and Meng Jiu were completely in Du Yiyu's shadow.

middle.

Except for the faint light in Du Yiyu's hand in front, the surroundings were dark, like thick ink that could not be adjusted. Because it was very quiet, the three of them kept silent unconsciously, as if they were afraid of waking up the sleeping monster; also because they were tired.

, no one is willing to waste energy to speak; and because of the darkness, no one dares to speak casually, for fear that the sound of words will cover up the lurking dangerous sounds. However, such silence makes Song Xiao feel more and more nervous, and his breathing becomes difficult.

It became more and more urgent. And the feeling of depression caused by the narrow space in the cave became more and more serious. It seemed that there were many ghosts and monsters hiding in the dark around them and staring at them. Fortunately, there were people in front and behind him, which made him feel somewhat safe.

feel.

Climbing took far more energy than walking than Song Xiao imagined. He couldn't help but secretly admire those two people for keeping their breathing steady. Suddenly, Song Xiao realized something was wrong. It was too quiet behind them, as quiet as a vacuum. Same! No matter how strong Meng Jiu's physical strength is, even if he is as light as a goose, he cannot be as light as a human being! The cave is very narrow, so he can't turn around to see what's going on behind him. The only thing he can do is to work hard He turned his head, but all he could see was darkness.

"Mr. Meng? Meng Jiu?" Song Xiao called out softly, but he was like a stone and there was no response at all. Song Xiao only felt that the hairs all over his body were exploding. He thought of Du Yiyu and knew that he was someone he could trust. But when He turned on the flashlight and turned his head, only to find in despair that Du Yiyu in front of him had disappeared at some point. There was silence around him and there was nothing. The only thing he could rely on was the orange light surrounded by darkness. That's all.

Meng Jiu paid attention to the situation in the cave as he climbed. Although the surroundings were pitch black, there was no unusual smell or sound. The cave walls were rough and were obviously dug manually. Although he didn't know much about geology, when they climbed again After about five or six minutes, he vaguely felt a slight change in the feeling of his hands. The change was in the excavation method. The front hole was rough, just for the purpose of making a big hole; while the back hole was delicate and orderly, like a project. So, it means that the cave they are in now may have other uses. Someone just happened to find it and used it to dig out the cave connected to the tomb of Grandpa Song Xiao.

His mind was a little confused. Meng Jiu subconsciously raised his hand and grabbed his hair. Wait... His whole body movement stopped. How could he grab his hair so loosely? Slowly and tentatively, he reached up and touched it. , Sure enough! The space above my head is no longer the low and narrow cave just now! I touched the left and right sides again, and there were stone walls!

He took a long breath and turned on the flashlight. Although the weak light seemed so weak in the darkness, looking up along the stone wall, he could see the edge of the stone wall. He was sure that the three of them had already passed by without knowing when. He was in a U-shaped pit that was as high as one person, just like a trench during a war, except that the sides of the pit were not made of earth but stone walls. Thinking about this, he looked towards the path he had come from, and sure enough, there was something vaguely visible in the distance. You could see that the cave they crawled out of before was connected to the pit. He cursed in his mind. Because the flashlight was insufficient, they didn't realize that the situation they were in had changed, and they kept crawling in the pit like fools. Yes! If anyone outside this pit is watching, they must think they are very funny!

"Hey, you two..." Meng Jiu wanted to call out to the two people in front of him, but he suddenly discovered that just when he was distracted to explore the surrounding situation, the two people in front of him had crawled to nowhere.
