Chapter 52 Chapter 23: Dark Pavilion Road

We looked at the skylight and hesitated a little, because there was a lot of heat falling from it, probably related to the mysterious flame in the abyss.Fan Li climbed up first, but it was pitch black there. He took a flashlight to shine for a while, and then said: "It seems to be a slope, very deep, and you can't see the bottom." "What? It doesn't matter, go up first, it's better than falling into the abyss!" Xu Qianer jumped onto the ice sculpture after finishing speaking. I have always wondered about this ice sculpture, why is it not Chang'e, but a man?Of course, fleeing for one's life was the most important thing at that time, and no one had time to pay attention to it.Adhering to the principle of women first, I waited for Yuan Yuanyuan to go up before I climbed the ice sculpture myself.However, the ice sculpture had already melted a lot at this moment, and when I stepped on it, I crushed the ice sculpture wrapped in wooden sticks.Then, I fell headfirst to the ground.I cursed and stood up quickly, but suddenly found that the stick was very special.

To be precise, it may not be a stick, but it looks like a stick.This wooden stick is emerald green, and it may have been frozen for a long time to maintain its original appearance, but it is very hard and has a jewel-like luster.I thought it might be worth money, so I stuck it around my waist, maybe I could really dedicate it to the museum when I went out, and my face would also be radiant.The big civet is very clever, if it hadn't been calling, I would have almost forgotten it.It grasped my back sensiblely, and then jumped onto the skylight with me. As soon as I climbed up, the ice sculpture shattered.Fortunately, there is moisture from the melting ice palace, so the space in this skylight is not so hot.However, we vaguely saw that there was a red flame dancing under this arc-shaped tunnel.All four of us turned on the flashlights, only to find out that this is the top of an arc, and the space just extends to the bottom, which is a bit like a children's slide. The shape is like a hemisphere, but the up and down distance here is much larger.

It is sandwiched between two layers of stone walls. The space is not too big and not too small. It is estimated to have a width of five or six meters, but the depth is not known for the time being, and our flashlights cannot touch it.After several discussions, we decided to go down and take a look. There was nothing left to miss in the Ice Palace, so let those treasures continue to sleep.Even though it was decided, climbing down is not a joke. Not to mention the steepness and ruggedness, the stone wall is quite hot. Who knows if it will be hell below. The outer stone wall is not thick, and there are holes in many places. The big ones can allow us to drill out, but the outside is already a huge black hole. I always feel panic when I look at it, as if my soul is sucked by the endless abyss gone.Everyone paid attention to the ice lamp and ice palace in the middle before, but no one thought that the stone wall here has two layers, and the dark layer leads to the bottom of the cave.These holes are smooth and free of dust, as if something is haunting them.These holes just happened to be used as stairs for us, but when I climbed down, my mind was thinking, this is the only passage, but does it lead to the outside of the mountain?

When I was thinking about it, my right hand was stabbed by something, which hurt a lot.The flashlight was tied to my chest. I straightened my chest, then shook it, but saw a black hair.It is extremely hard and has a metallic luster. What's more, I also found a hair like this in the mechanism of Qimen Dunjia. At that time, the big civet came across this thing and released a lot of hair in fear. stench. I thought, pretend I didn't see it, but don't make trouble at this critical juncture, if it happens here, it will really be regarded as a narrow road to the enemy.But just as I was thinking this way, the big civet on my shoulder released a foul smell, which made my tongue almost fall to my feet.I just wanted to curse the big civet for being ungrateful, but I immediately realized that there was danger!Because big civets emit bad smell when they are in danger!

Fan Li and the others were at the top, and I was at the bottom. Xu Qianer also euphemistically said: Let me run for my life first and take care of the little comrade.It's good now, I'm the first one to encounter danger, and I have nowhere to escape, so I really fell into Xu Qianer's old and unscrupulous way.Xu Qianer was crawling vigorously, didn't notice that I stopped, and then stepped on my left hand. I cried out in pain: "Look at me, my hand is under your feet." "You little bastard, you have the nerve to say, did you fart? It stinks!" Xu Qianer was confident.

"I didn't let it go, you take the stinky feet away first, you want to trample me to death?"The big civet had no place to hide, it just anxiously released the stench on my body, and rubbed it back and forth, torturing people to death.I wanted to look down, but the big civet's fat body blocked me, and I couldn't move my nimble head at all.And the black hair on the hole was extremely sharp, and my palm was already bloody, itching and painful. "What's the matter, does the big civet feel something?" Fan Li asked from above. "Maybe there is something, I can't see it, come down and have a look, don't stay all on top of me." Bad luck made me start to complain.

I just yelled this sentence, but the big civet jumped out of my shoulder like crazy, then grabbed a hole tightly, and looked at me from a distance.I felt puzzled, so I grabbed the stone wall with one hand and picked up the flashlight with the other, trying to see what was below, but I saw a pair of eyes, the same as Xu Qianer's, all black. I was taken aback. To be honest, although I was quite timid, I was always in awe of Xu Qianer's weird eyeballs.At this moment, in this environment, I suddenly saw, to use a slightly vulgar metaphor, my little brother began to tremble.That thing was quite far away from me, but when the light of the flashlight touched those eyes, a strange light flashed, like a bottomless abyss, which took people's soul.

"My god, I said Uncle Xu, your relatives are down here!" I was so frightened that I lost my mind for a moment, so I started talking nonsense. "Where did my relatives come from? That damn elder brother didn't know where he went!" Xu Qianer said angrily. "Oh, that boss, he was killed by us!" As soon as I said the words, I immediately froze. Yuan Yuanyuan once told me not to mention it. Although Xu Qianda's death has nothing to do with us, Xu Qianer will have something to do with us.It's just that those eyes really scared me just now, my brain is not working well, so my speech has no logic, and I talk nonsense, so I don't care about the consequences.

When Xu Qianer heard my words, he immediately lost his voice. I changed the subject nervously, and I had to change the subject, because there might be something fatal down there.Everyone pointed the flashlights down together, but the thing was gone.It made everyone say that I was talking nonsense, but in fact, even I could find a place to hide or crawl to a lower place after a while.But it's a good thing for that thing to hide from us, and it's exactly what I want to avoid confrontation. The smell of the big civet lingers for a long time. Everyone wants to pinch their noses, but they can't spare any extra hands. Everyone hates their parents for not giving them more hands. It would be great if they looked like Avalokitesvara .

"Hush—" Fan Li and Yuan Yuanyuan said at the same time. "What's wrong?" I wondered, and the big civet jumped back on my shoulder. "There is the sound of water, listen to it," Fan Li said. I pricked up my ears and listened carefully. There was indeed the sound of running water, but it was not like the sound of a brook, but the sound of spring water gushing out from the ground.Because of the special environment here, the sound will echo, which is very special.The sound of running water means that there is a way out. As long as you follow the water flow, you will have the hope of survival.If the water is deep enough, maybe Xu Shaode is still alive, I suddenly feel happy when I think of this.

At this moment, a huge object suddenly fell from the outer space of the stone wall, falling straight into the abyss.I looked up, and vaguely saw that the hanging ice palace had disappeared. This huge monster must be the ice palace.There must be a lot of movement when such a big thing hits. As expected, the ground was shaken by the collision, and a lot of water was splashed. Spicy feeling. "Damn it, it's a good thing we came out, otherwise we must have died a miserable death." Xu Qianer gasped. I just wanted to answer, but found that there are water droplets on my face, I wiped it with my hand, and found that the water droplets are black.All of a sudden, I felt unlucky, Xu Qianer, the god damned, is going to make trouble again, right?As soon as I looked up, I saw black tears flowing from his eyes again, and they were falling drop by drop. I almost wanted to cry, why so many people have weird problems, and I caught up with them! Xu Qianer was still conscious, he was panting, and was digging for things in his clothes.Yuan Yuanyuan noticed the abnormality, so she asked Fan Li to stop, it seems that she knew that Xu Qianer would have this symptom.I saw that Xu Qianer took out a plastic bottle and poured it into his mouth suddenly.Because I was in a hurry when I poured it, some powder fell on me.I took a closer look, and then sniffed hard, feeling very familiar, isn't this just dark and ancient?It turned out that Xu Qianer also liked to eat this food, just like a drug addict.The world is so big that there are really no surprises. After a while of silence, Xu Qianer's black tears finally stopped, and his rough breathing also calmed down.I breathed a sigh of relief, nothing went wrong after all, Xu Qianer is so weird, he must have experienced very strange things.We all pretended it didn't happen, and no one dared to ask, but Xu Qianer poured it out by himself. He said that his father, Xu Qian, went to Yunnan at that time, captured Hiroshi Nakamura, and later married a beautiful woman in Deqin County.After the war, Xu Qian returned to Deqin, but his mother died, but one of the twin brothers was adopted by Yaofu, and the other was taken to Inner Mongolia.Later, Xu Qian'er lived with Yaofu in Meili Snow Mountain, collecting medicine for a living.He never saw his father—Xu Qian again. He only heard from the neighbors at that time that his father came back to look for them, but he disappeared later. Xu Qianer still doesn’t know where his father is. . He and Yao Fu were collecting medicine in Meili Snow Mountain. Once, they came to the valley and suddenly found something strange in a waterfall.The middle of the waterfall was black. At that time, they thought it was strange that there would be some rare medicinal herbs growing there, so they ran over excitedly. Unexpectedly, a large amount of black smoke gushed out of the waterfall. The two of them only felt pain in their eyes, and then passed out on the ground.I don't know how long it took to wake up, but the eyes have all turned black.
