I looked at Hu Xue next to me and asked with a serious expression, "Do you want to go down too?"
Hu Xue stared at the dark hole with frightened eyes, and the expression on her face was a little hesitant. It was obvious that she was afraid.
Normal people generally have this kind of fear. Facing an unexpected black hole underground, who would dare to go in?
The sissy quickly took the opportunity to persuade her, "Xiaoxue, let's just wait up there. It's pitch dark in here and it's too scary. What if there's danger?"
Who knew that it would be better if she didn't persuade her, but her persuasion aroused her competitive spirit. She gritted her teeth and stamped her feet and made a decision.
"When I go down, if there is any danger, Zhang Jiuyang will protect me."
I was f*cked up for a moment, wasn’t Hu Xue’s face changing too fast?
"Why should I protect you?" I looked at her unhappily.
"Humph, don't forget your identity?" Hu Xue said arrogantly.
"Who am I?"
"You are my future brother-in-law. If something happens to me, my sister will not forgive you! My grandfather will not forgive you either." Hu Xue suddenly laughed slyly.
My face suddenly twitched slightly, and I suddenly realized that I couldn't keep up with Hu Xue. What did this crazy girl mean?
However, his words touched my weakness. I still have to take care of Mr. Hu's face. After all, he and my grandfather are close friends of life and death.
I sighed helplessly, and I could only shut my mouth obediently, not wanting to argue with her. It was wrong to reason with a woman.
Now that she has made up her mind, I can only let her go. If we are really in danger, we may die together in there, and I don't care.
I lay down at the entrance of the cave and listened for a while. Except for the darkness inside, there was no movement at all, as if it was a bottomless abyss.
This made me feel somewhat uneasy.
Huzi has the most vigorous and resolute character. While we were talking, he had already come over from the side with a dagger and cut off a few branches as thick as his wrist.
He sharpened the front of the branch to an extremely sharp point, and the material is also very hard. I estimate that it can easily pierce a person's flesh, or even penetrate the body. It can be used as a self-defense weapon.
After giving the branches to us, Huzi turned around and came to the entrance of the cave. He took out a lighting rod and threw it in. Then he squatted at the entrance of the cave and looked down carefully.
"Master, it shouldn't be very deep! I'll go down first!"
After saying that, Huzi took out the climbing rope and tied it to a small tree nearby. He also tied it to his body and touched the other end into the cave entrance.
"Be careful!" I warned.
Hu Zizi nodded slightly and slowly fell in along the entrance of the cave.
Although the entrance of the cave is not big, it is still very spacious for one person. After Huzi entered, we quickly moved to the entrance of the cave and watched his body descend little by little.
As he continued to descend, Huzi's figure gradually disappeared from the darkness, and he could not see clearly. He could only see the lighting rod in his hand emitting a faint light.
I couldn't help but feel a little nervous and hoped everything would go well.
After another moment, the rope seemed to have stopped swinging.
After a while, Huzi's voice came up: "Master, come down, there is no danger!"
I breathed a long sigh of relief, then looked at Hu Xue and Sissy, and asked her to go down first.
Hu Xue didn't hesitate, imitating Hu Zi, grabbing the rope and descending little by little, much slower than Hu Zi.
Although he was a master of Taekwondo, he could not compete with someone like Hu Zi. His physical strength was even more limited, and it took twice as long as Hu Zi to land safely.
Then there was the sissy, who was even more ink-stained than Hu Xue. He screamed for a long time, and even stopped for a while, but finally fell down because he was too weak. Then there was a sound of water, and he screamed strangely.
stand up.
I shook my head helplessly, thinking that if I were to die next time, I would not carry this kind of oil bottle with me, it would only waste time.
I was the last one to go down. As for the fat man, I stayed up there so that if anything happened, someone would take care of him.
The fat man actually wanted to go down there, but his size didn't allow it, so he probably had to get stuck on it, and there was indeed a need for someone on top.
My process of coming down was not very easy, but the vertical height of more than ten or twenty meters was not too difficult for me, so I came down with a little effort.
But when I came down, I was surprised to find that there was a whole other world down there.
This is an underground undercurrent. The location where we descended was just on the bank of the underground undercurrent. It was a very narrow place. Sissy couldn't fall down because she couldn't stand, so she rolled into the puddle next to it.
It can be seen through the light of the lighting rod that this is a spacious underground passage, the entire direction is east-west, and there is no end in sight at either end.
Judging from this alone, the size underneath is not beyond my imagination. Perhaps as I guessed, there are likely to be ley lines underneath the entire island.
Judging from the appearance of the passage, it seems to be naturally formed. Except for the exit above the head, the other locations are of different widths. You need to walk through it to know the specific terrain.
This reminds me of the underground cracks under Kowloon City. The two are somewhat similar.
Standing in the underground corridor, we can feel the clear wind flowing, and there is a moist breath in the air. We, who were shivering from the cold just now, suddenly felt a warmth, as if we had entered a heating room, and we were in contact with each other.
The cold weather outside formed a sharp contrast.
"Oh, it's so warm in here. If I had known this, I would have come down to hide from the rain in the first place!" Sissy looked very happy, obviously enjoying the warm environment here.
Huzi looked around and said: "Master, it seems that you guessed well before. The reason why this island is like spring all year round is indeed because of the geothermal heat. The temperature here is no longer comparable to that of spring..."
I nodded, "The Qi veins under this island are well connected, warm and pleasant. It can be regarded as a rare underground Qi vein. Logically speaking, this island should be regarded as a place for outstanding people!..."
"But why was it suppressed?" Huzi asked the question I was concerned about.
"Let's go east. I feel that thing should be in the east."
Without any hesitation, I chose to head east.
Along the way, the terrain is also changing slightly. There are not many ups and downs. The main reason is that the width and height of the passage change greatly.
Some places are very narrow, with a width of less than one meter and you need to bend down to move forward. But some places are extremely wide, such as the section in front of you. The undercurrent has turned into an underground river with a width of five or six meters. On both sides
But there was no place to stay, but the height above his head suddenly dropped, and he was only less than half a meter away from the water.
If we want to move forward, we must get into the water and move forward.
But entering the water in such a location is extremely dangerous.
