Chapter 377 Falling into the clutches of the devil
Wen Qingshan asked Xu Maorong and Xu Jiacheng about the situation in the cave, and the three of us prepared to enter the cave. Huang Yixian bent down on the ground and took the lead in getting in through the narrow stone cave entrance, followed closely by Wen Qingshan and me.
As soon as I got into the cave, I heard a cheap shout from behind me: "Be careful! If you can't find it, come out!"
I didn't bother to answer him and just crawled into the cave. After crawling about two or three meters, we were finally able to stand upright. However, it was pitch black inside the cave. I took a flashlight and looked around and found this
It is a large cave hall, with an area of nearly a hundred square meters. The ceiling of the cave is about four or five meters high. The strange rocks in the cave hall are rugged, and traces of artificial repairs are clearly visible.
Needless to say, this should be the "Guanyin Hall" mentioned by Xu Maorong.
The three of us looked around and soon discovered the strange stone that resembled Guanyin. In front of the strange stone, there was an old desk with a copper statue on it.
Incense candlesticks and several broken porcelain plates.
Wen Qingshan walked to the desk, stared at it for a while, and suddenly seemed to notice something. He turned to Huang Yixian and me and said, "Someone has indeed been here! And it should have been not long ago!"
"Boss Wen, what did you find?" I asked hurriedly.
"Look here!" Wen Qingshan pointed at the table.
I hurriedly stepped forward and took a look, and saw a slap print on the dusty table!
"It seems that the guy has indeed escaped here, everyone should be careful!" Wen Qingshan said as he took out a few silver nails and held them in his hands, while I quickly pulled out the dragon's teeth from my waist.
come out.
I took a flashlight and looked around again, and found that there were many large and small cave entrances around the cave hall, and there were only three that could allow people to enter. The largest one was behind the Guanyin stone.
Wen Qingshan pondered for a while, raised his finger and pointed at the entrance of the cave behind Guanyin Stone, and said: "If I guessed correctly, that guy should have gone inside. He must have been injured, so he walked to this
When I was in front of the desk, I accidentally propped up the tabletop with my hand."
Huang Yixian nodded: "Boss Wen's analysis is quite reasonable, why don't we go in and find out."
We were about to drill into the cave, but I suddenly caught a glimpse of something that seemed to be printed with some black characters on a relatively smooth stone wall next to the Guanyin Stone.
I hurried over and took a closer look with the flashlight. It was indeed the same characters engraved on the piece of paper that Wuchenzi picked up, which was the Fire Tribe cipher text that Wuchenzi said!
Wen Qingshan stepped forward and touched the words, frowned and said: "These words are not carved, nor do they look like they were drawn with a pen. They feel like they were naturally generated."
Huang Yixian said: "Is it possible that it was really made by that fire?"
"Even if the appearance of these words is really due to that bizarre fire, these words must have existed originally, but they were burned by the fire, so they appeared."
"What do you mean?" Huang Yixian was confused.
But I understood it and explained on the side: "Boss Wen means that someone used a special hidden material to write this kind of writing on this stone wall. Most people can't see it, but this kind of material has been
When the fire burns, a chemical reaction occurs and the words appear."
Wen Qingshan nodded and said: "That's right! I think it should be like this, but there are still a few things I haven't figured out yet."
"What didn't you understand?" I asked hurriedly.
Wen Qingshan said: "First, who wrote these words here, and second, what do these words mean, and why are they written on this stone wall."
I said: "Since it is the Fire Tribe cipher text, the person who wrote these words must be a descendant of the Fire Tribe. As for the meaning of these words, I don't know. The Fire Tribe cipher text has been lost for more than a thousand years.
Even senior Wuchenzi can’t understand it, and now I’m afraid no one in the world knows it.”
Wen Qingshan glanced at me and said, "This is the crux of the problem. Since no one in the world understands the meaning of the Fire Tribe secret text, how did Second Master Rui learn the Fire Tribe's secret techniques?"
His words made Huang Yixian and I both stunned. I hadn't thought about this yet. I thought about it for a while and said, "Is it possible that the Fire Tribe secret technique is not written in Fire Tribe cipher text?"
Wen Qingshan said: "It would be better if he is really self-taught. I'm just afraid..." He was halfway through his words, but he stopped talking.
Huang Yixian hurriedly asked: "What is Boss Wen worried about?"
Wen Qingshan replied solemnly: "I was wondering if there is a ruthless character behind him who is more difficult to deal with."
Listening to what he said, I suddenly thought that the old man in the village said that Mr. Rui also had a master. "By the way, the old man in the village said that he once saw him worshiping a Taoist priest in black robes as his teacher. Could it be that the Taoist priest
Is he actually a descendant of the Fire Tribe? And that Taoist priest has actually been living in seclusion in this Guanyin Rock?"
Wen Qingshan shook his head and said: "Everything is unknown now, but no matter what, there must be some secret hidden in this cave."
Huang Yixian's eyes lit up and he lowered his voice and said, "Do you think there might be a shocking treasure hidden in this cave?"
Wen Qingshan smiled and said: "Haha, I hope there is a treasure, so that our trip will not be in vain."
As soon as the treasure was mentioned, Huang Yixian immediately became energetic and said: "Let's go! Then let's go inside and look for it! Maybe there is a treasure!" After saying that, he took the lead and got into the cave behind the Guanyin Stone.
Among them, this old man loves money more than anything else. Fortunately, Wen Qingshan and I are already used to it.
What we didn't expect was that the cave behind Guanyin Stone was not very deep. The cave was winding and winding, with no end in sight, and there were branch entrances everywhere. It was like a maze. The three of us walked around inside.
For a long time, not even a single useful clue was found, let alone a human figure. As for the "shattering treasure" that Huang Yixian longed for, it was even more impossible.
Fortunately, Wen Qingshan has rich experience in caving, and he also brought a professional GPS locator. We did not lose our way, but trying to find the traces of Mr. Rui was like looking for a needle in a haystack. After wandering around for almost an hour
, I was a little discouraged, sat down on a rock, and sighed: "This damn place is so big, where can we find Mr. Rui!"
After all, Huang Yixian was old and out of breath from exhaustion. He gasped and echoed: "This cave is really not that big. If that guy really wants to avoid us, it will not be easy to find him."
thing."
"How about we just call the police and let the police deal with him." I suggested.
Wen Qingshan waved his hand and said: "The police definitely don't believe this kind of evil thing. Moreover, the local government had already conducted an inspection of this cave five years ago. Because some people were missing, the inspection was terminated. Now I'm afraid the police are unlikely to rashly
Then enter here and search."
"But with just a few of us, how can we possibly find him?"
"There is really no way to continue searching like this. How about we..." Before Wen Qingshan finished speaking, I suddenly heard another sound of flapping wings. It was almost the same as the sound I heard outside the cave just now, because it was inside a closed cave.
, this time they both heard it clearly. The three of us quickly turned back and looked around, but we saw nothing.
I lowered my voice and said, "It seems like something is following us!"
Wen Qingshan was slightly startled: "Is it an owl monster?"
I said: "It's very possible! By the way! In fact, when I was outside just now, I was wondering whether the disappearance of the two expedition members five years ago was related to the owl monster!?"
Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "It is indeed possible."
I continued my analysis: "The carcasses of wild boars, muntjacs and other animals found by the expedition team in the cave must have been leftovers eaten by the owl monster. Moreover, the body of the bear outside was missing. I guess it is very likely*
*He was also brought to this cave by the owl monster."
After hearing what I said, Huang Yixian couldn't believe it: "You are exaggerating, isn't that owl monster really that powerful?"
I nodded and said with certainty: "If it is really an owl monster, it definitely has the strength to do it. That thing is not..."
Before I could finish speaking, there was suddenly a piercing scream from above our heads. The three of us hurriedly looked up and saw a huge black shadow flying quickly from above our heads. I quickly raised my flashlight to shine it.
, but because the ceiling of the cave was covered with hanging stalagmites, my line of sight was blocked, so I couldn’t find anything.
Wen Qingshan hurriedly said: "This place is not suitable for staying for a long time. It is better for us to leave here first."
His proposal was unanimously approved by Huang Yixian and I, so the three of us immediately turned back and walked back. But not far away, I suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings above my head. I quickly looked up and saw that
Seeing a black shadow falling from the sky and rushing towards us quickly, I shouted: "Little
Heart!" and immediately stretched out his hand and pushed them both aside. But almost at the same time, I felt that my shoulders were tightly grasped by a pair of big hands like iron pliers.
Before he had time to react, his body had been lifted off the ground by these big hands and he quickly flew deep into the cave.
Because the thing that caught me flew very fast, and the space inside the cave was relatively narrow, my body hit the hard stone wall many times, and even my head was not spared. The violent impact caused me to quickly lose consciousness.
When I opened my eyes again, I found that I was in a relatively flat cave hall. This cave hall had obvious traces of artificial chiseling, and on the side of the cave wall, there was still a light shining quietly.
Although the light from the burning oil lamp is relatively dim, the situation in the cave hall can basically be seen clearly.
