Chapter 267 Four Stone Statues
The three people following me all stopped and stared at the surface of the underground river with all their concentration.
When I stopped, I realized that above this underground river, there were two intersecting stone bridges, a stone bridge was winding and serpentine, running through both ends of the underground river.
The other one is repaired straight. Both stone bridges are not wide and can only be used by one person. There is no cover on both sides. If you accidentally fall into the underground river.
Fortunately, this place is big enough, and I looked around and there were only two wooden platforms besides a river that could not see the end.
One is where we just settled, and the other is on the other side of the underground river. The wooden platform is square and relatively small, just like the altar used to worship river gods in ancient times.
"Look, the person with a tattoo on his face, he...what happened to him?!" Dandong came from behind me with a terrified tone. I quickly raised my head and looked at the tattooed face.
The tattooed face had already reached halfway up the stone bridge. Instead of continuing to walk opposite him, he stopped, and stood on the stone bridge with his back to us, starting to wave his arms randomly in the air.
Seeing the tattooed face, I thought it was a ghost that was confused, but when I looked over with my penis, I found that there was no evil spirit around the tattooed face, just a trace of black yin energy floating back and forth beside him...
But the next scene made me even more puzzled. After the tattooed face was finished, I suddenly found a direction, knelt on the stone bridge with both knees, and bent down, aiming at one of the directions in the underground river and kowtowed constantly.
After seeing all the strange actions of the tattooed face, Dandong was fine, but she scared the girl and Mr. Haohao who were following us.
"He...what is he doing? Was he being put on the body by a ghost?!" The girl in the short skirt stared at the tattooed face kneeling on the stone bridge. Her face was as pale as paper, her lips were trembling slightly, and there was no trace of blood at all.
Mr. Haohao also held his gold-slide glasses with his fingers and said confidently:
"I think there must be something under that dark river. It's better not to go there, otherwise the outcome will be the same as that person."
After hearing Mr. Haohao's words, Dandong turned his head and looked at him and asked:
"If we stayed there, what's the difference between waiting for death on the spot?"
The gentleman was about to speak, but the girl snatched him and said:
"I agree with this sister. Instead of staying here and waiting to die, it is better to give it a try and walk up the stone bridge to see. Anyway, we have experienced all the zombies just now. If we survive the disaster, we will have good fortune!"
Mr. Haohao doesn't seem to agree with Dandong and the girl in short skirt:
"Don't think too simple about this place. We are lucky enough to survive until now. Instead of risking our lives to climb the stone bridge, it is better to stay here, maybe live a little longer. When we are really desperate, it will not be too late to go up the stone bridge again."
"By that time, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold." Dandong curled his lips and stretched out a slender finger and pointed it at Mr. Haohao:
"Hey, coward, if you want to stay here and wait for death, then you can stay, but I always say something bad to the front..." She sneered and paused:
"If we do escape, don't expect us to turn back and save you."
After hearing Dandong's words, Mr. Haohao was silent for a while, and finally lowered his head and said nothing more.
As time goes by, the tattooed face still kneels on the stone bridge and kowtows mechanically, repeating this action again and again, like a machine that will never stop.
Just as I was hesitating whether to take the risk of going up the stone bridge to take a look, I suddenly heard a harsh sound of electric current.
After the electric current sound, the familiar sound of the black cat once again sounded over our heads:
"Congratulations to the five people present for successfully passing the first level. The reward for passing the level is on the wooden platform opposite. As long as some of you can walk through these four rivers, the reward will be yours."
"How many levels do you want us to overcome here?!" Dandong raised his head and stared at the sky, shouting hysterically in the direction of the sound.
The black cat's voice continued to ring after a while:
"Hehehehehehe, don't be so anxious. The game has just begun. Let's play slowly together. I'll leave first, I wish you good luck."
The black cat threw a word and disappeared. No matter how much we shouted and scolded, we could not get a single response.
Dandong turned around and asked me a little discouraged:
"Wang Cheng, there is a stone bridge ahead. Have you ever thought of any way to go?"
Before I could answer Dandong's words, I saw undercurrents surging under the river.
"Be careful, stay away from the shore, something comes out from the bottom of the river!!" I waved my arm, then shouted loudly, and hurriedly took everyone to quickly retreat, maintaining a certain safe distance from the underground river.
On the dim river surface, the undercurrents were becoming more and more obvious, and the originally small ripples gradually stirred into waves. Then, I saw a huge dark shadow appear in the middle of the wave!
"Crash~!" With a loud sound of water, I clearly saw a black stone statue suddenly emerge from under the water.
I stood there, looked up and looked at the stone statue carefully. My ears were long and pointed, my mouth was very large, and I had long fangs, my eyes were round and thudded, and I looked like a fierce and evil look.
On top of the claws, long nails penetrated deeply into its insteps, and behind the stone statue, a pair of bat-like wings emerged.
I guess the carvings on this stone statue should be a kind of monster that we don't know.
As the stone statue floated out of the dark river, three stone statues appeared in different corners at the same time, appearing on the river surface one by one.
The one on the left is a Buddha statue with kind eyebrows and eyes. An old monk clasped his hands together and was chanting scriptures attentively; the one on the right is a portrait, an ordinary man standing in place, lowering his head and thinking about something.
The last one is a little ghost. This little ghost is carved into a very blur, with only the upper body and the lower body hidden in a black cloud.
What does it mean when these four stone statues emerge from under the river at the same time?
The four stone statues correspond to the four stone bridges above the river surface. Is this a hint to us?
"Wang Cheng, what do these stone statues mean?" Dandong walked behind me and asked nervously.
"I think these four stone statues should correspond to these four stone bridges. We must choose a stone bridge from them so that we can walk over safely, otherwise the outcome will be the same as... it is like him." I pursed my lips and spoke hesitantly, and then pointed my hand at the tattooed face that was still kneeling and kowtowing.
As soon as I finished my guess, Mr. Hao jumped out and poked his fingertips toward the stone bridge near the Buddha statue:
"The safest road is that stone bridge!"
