Chapter 260 Mandrill
"The young monk has already rushed this way. When the tide here goes out, he will almost arrive." Bai Xiaosheng did not answer my previous question and directly told me that Yuan Qingguang was arriving soon.
"Okay, finally there is good news, but we two brothers worked hard together with you, and in the end we didn't even know how we died. Isn't this a bit unfair? Do you think it's too shameless to cooperate like this?" I said.
His tone was already a little impatient.
"Hey, are you angry?" Bai Xiaosheng asked, baring his big yellow teeth.
I teased him, "You saved my life, but I don't dare to lose my temper. This is my repayment, isn't it?"
"Don't pretend to be confused because you understand. Gufeng mentioned Guiguzi to you, and you are so smart, how can you not guess it? You should already have a clue in your mind." Bai Xiaosheng leaned on the railing and rubbed some with his hand.
With his oily forehead, he looked at the mountains on both sides of the Grand Canyon and said, "Isn't this a perfect place to bury someone?"
"Then you are looking for the wrong person. I have a friend and it would be a good time to find him." I am talking about Du San, and Du San specializes in this line of work.
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head, "No one else can replace you. Meeting you on the train can be regarded as our mutual fulfillment."
"You'll know what I mean when you get inside."
Just as we were talking, a huge "rumbling..." sound came over, like a mountain collapsing and the earth cracking.
Everyone on the boat grabbed the railing at the same time. The moment we grabbed the railing, the ship shook violently, so much that it was almost unsteady, and the tilt reached almost ninety degrees. Despite this,
, in the end the hull still did not turn over.
After the huge wave, the water level began to slowly drop, which was obviously an ebb tide.
The tide here had just gone down, and a small boat sailed towards us like lightning. Soon, it arrived in front of our boat.
When the boat arrived, I saw Yuan Qingguang standing on the bow. The moment I saw Yuan Qingguang, my heart was relieved. Yuan Qingguang was also very excited when he saw me, and he turned towards me
He waved his hands hard, "Brother Ping, Brother Ping..."
In addition to Yuan Qingguang, there is a middle-aged man in a Tang suit on the boat. What attracts me most about this middle-aged man is his eyes. There are no black eyes in his pupils, and his eyes are white like dead fish. Obviously
He should be blind.
Master Liao greeted the middle-aged man politely, "Second uncle, you are here."
The blind man nodded slightly, "Everyone is here, let's start taking action without further ado."
The old man behind Master Liao gave a few instructions to a sailor next to him, and the sailor called a few people to the cabin.
Taking advantage of this moment, Yuan Qingguang asked me what was going on, and I told him briefly and concisely.
"You said this is Guiguzi's cemetery?" Yuan Qingguang's eyes widened.
"Maybe, I'm not sure what they said." I said.
"This place is so remote, it is indeed appropriate to bury someone." Yuan Qingguang looked around.
While the two were talking, two sailors walked out of the cabin carrying a pile of clothes. These clothes looked quite thick, and they were all waterproof clothes.
It's not very cold this season anymore, so I don't know what they mean by bringing out so many thick clothes.
Bai Xiaosheng, Master Liao, the old man behind him, and his second uncle all went over to put on heavy clothes.
I, Yuan Qingguang, and Gufeng master and apprentice stood still.
"It's getting colder as we go inside. We're going to set off immediately. You should also put on your clothes." Bai Xiaosheng said as he put on his clothes.
I didn't quite understand what he meant. Isn't the temperature inside different from the temperature outside?
However, we still put our clothes on. After putting on the thick clothes, we suddenly felt a lot clumsy.
Seeing that we were all dressed, Bai Xiaosheng shouted, "Weigh anchor and set sail..."
Following the clattering corpses, the anchor rose, and the ship began to slide slowly, then suddenly began to accelerate, heading straight towards the rock wall on the right.
My heart suddenly rose to my throat. I didn’t know why these people did this. If it really hit the rock wall, everyone on the boat would fall into the river.
Even if the little white dragon in the waves gets here, I'm afraid it won't be able to swim out.
I glanced at everyone. Except for the Liao family and Bai Xiaosheng, everyone else had a look of surprise on their faces.
From the fact that they had just taken out their thick clothes and the expressions on their faces did not change, I concluded that this was definitely not the first time for the Liao family and they had gained a lot of experience.
There was a splashing sound on the water, and the speed of the boat became faster and faster. A stream of water split off and crashed straight into the rock wall on the right.
Just when my heart was in my throat, the water level was gradually dropping. Just when the boat was about to touch the stone wall, a dark hole was exposed in the lower room of the stone wall.
Not only was I stunned, but I didn’t expect that there was actually a cave entrance in this place. Almost no one sets foot in such a place. And as long as it’s not low tide, the hole in the rock wall will not be exposed. No wonder it has been there for thousands of years.
However, Guiguzi’s tomb has not been found.
"This is the hard work of more than ten generations of our Liao family." Master Liao's second uncle suddenly said.
He seemed to be talking to himself or to us.
No one said anything. At this time, the boat had already sailed straight into the cave entrance.
Although the entrance of the cave is not small, the boat is quite big, and the boat almost scrapes against the rock wall to get in. Suddenly, my eyes went dark, and the sudden darkness made it difficult to see anything at all.
I quickly closed my eyes, took two deep breaths, and then slowly opened them. At this time, I barely got used to the darkness in the cave.
Just as we entered the cave, I felt the sound of water flowing behind me. Looking back, I was shocked. It turned out that the entrance to the cave had been covered again, probably due to high tide.
It only took five or six minutes for him to emerge from the rock wall to the entrance of the cave, before the place was once again flooded by the rising tide.
"In order to grasp the rules here and grasp the time accurately, we have spent a full ten years." Master Liao's second uncle said, "Ten years, a full ten years, in order to find this cave entrance, I have been
They all stay here."
"The first year we came in the summer, we found nothing. The second year we spent the Chinese New Year on the boat, and finally figured out the law of ebb and flow here. There are only a few days before and after today every year, and the difference in water level here when the tide ebbs is
It’s relatively big. In the third year we discovered the cave behind the low tide.”
"In the fourth year, we wanted to enter the cave, but the time was not right and we were one step behind. Although we were able to enter the cave every time after that, we returned without success."
Not only did I squint my eyes, but if it was true as he said, this might actually be the place where Gui Guzi was finally buried.
It's been ten years since anyone succeeded. There are really not many people who can do this.
While we were talking, I suddenly felt as if there was a pair of eyes staring at us in the darkness. Just when I was about to look around, Master Liao's second uncle whispered, "That thing is on the rock above our heads."
On the wall."
Hearing what he said, I raised my head in my dream, and I couldn't help but froze because there was a person lying on top of our heads.
I read it right, it was indeed a person. I couldn't help but cursed in my heart, how could there be human beings in this ghost place? Could it be the legendary aliens.
Just when I looked up, the person above me suddenly threw down a fist-sized stone. The stone hit my head. If it had hit me, I would have died on the spot.
"What the hell is this?" As I spoke, I took a step back. The stone fell and was carried on board, and the ship's plank immediately made a crisp sound.
As the stone fell down, the strange man suddenly disappeared from our sight.
"What is that?" I couldn't help but frown and said.
"I don't know, it's our first time encountering them. Every time we come in, we encounter something we haven't encountered before." Bai Xiaosheng shrugged his shoulders and said.
He has said so, what else can I say.
The boat was gliding forward quickly in the dark cave, and I always felt as if there were eyes secretly watching us.
I hold the Xunlong Sword in my hand, ready to fight at any time.
Just when we were driving for about ten minutes, there was a sudden "squeak" sound coming from the top of the cave.
This voice seemed to be an order, and then countless stones fell towards our ship.
"Hurry up and hide in the cabin." Bai Xiaosheng shouted and got into the cabin at the lead.
I also quickly pulled Yuan Qingguang into the cabin. Although the structure of the cabin was very strong, countless rocks fell down and a hole was quickly smashed in a position in the cabin.
I really wanted to find out what was outside, so I found a wooden board from the cabin and put it on my head and walked out.
The moment I saw the stone wall above our heads, I felt numb in my heart. On the stone wall above our heads were densely packed human monsters. They had brown hair on their bodies and their bodies were climbing very steadily on the stone wall.
.
Seeing these monsters, I couldn't help but scream in my heart. These things are actually mandrills. Mandrills are also called one-horned ghosts. Because they can run faster than leopards and can tear apart tigers and leopards with their bare hands, they are called mountain monsters.
Overlord.
There is a saying that it is better to encounter a jackal than a mandrill, which further illustrates the terrifying nature of mandrills.
At the same time, mandrills have a very strong sense of territorial occupation. Once they discover that an animal has entered their territory, mandrills will immediately gather their companions to launch a siege. Whether they are humans or animals, they will retreat when facing mandrills.
