Chapter 99 Chapter Sixteen Sudden Recovery

Just now, the red beast in front of us was trying to act coquettishly, just like a newborn child, no one expected that it would suddenly roar at us with an earth-shattering roar.The red beast roared frantically for about half a minute, and its "sonic power" shook the bodies of the three of us almost to shatter like glass.The source of the sound was right in front of us. Human instinct would of course make us cover our ears tightly. After the red beast stopped, I let go of my hands covering my ears, and my hands were covered with red and black blood.Still in shock, I glanced at Xinhong and Sister Yu next to me. Their hands were also covered with blood, which made my heart flutter.

After the red beast yelled at us, it immediately changed its appearance, still rubbing its bulky head against me coquettishly.I was so perplexed that I found it exasperating. I thought animals were simpler than humans, and they couldn’t turn their faces faster than flipping through books. I didn’t expect the red monster in front of me to be as virtuous as some people!Frustrated, I temporarily forgot how huge and ferocious the red beast was, so I picked up a stone and threw it on the head.The red beast didn't dodge or dodge, and let me beat it on the head.The anger subsided a little bit, and I suddenly found that my strength had returned to the original level, and the feeling of drunkenness was gone!The red ferocious beast did not become wild because of my "disrespect", but rubbed against my body more intimately.

"Sister Yu, Xinhong, what do you think? Are you ready for activities?" I asked hastily. After listening to this, they moved around casually two or three times, and they really regained their strength.This time we were even more surprised. After the blood flowed from the ears, the tinnitus stopped immediately, and the pain was gone.I clearly remember that the diving sickness has not abated, and it has been deepening. Why did the diving sickness disappear when it said it was gone? How could it be so sudden?When I was puzzled, the red beast was still rubbing non-stop. I noticed that before our diving sickness dissipated, it had yelled at us. Is it possible that we can move freely again because of its That growl?Other than that, I really can't think of anything that would bring everyone back immediately.

I had to observe the appearance of the red beast more carefully. Its body shape and voice were different from the beast I met in the dark just now. How many unknown beasts are there in this cave maze?I thought, anyway, this red beast doesn't look like it's going to hurt us, and it's more like our friend, so I made up my mind to follow the red beast.If you encounter other beasts, you may be able to accommodate other beasts through the red beast. "Everyone can move around, shall we take the old curator Zha down?" I suggested. "So you really know him!" Sister Yu said in surprise, pointing to the old curator Cha on the ground.

"You...know old curator Zha?" Xinhong also asked in surprise. "Uncle Cha came to our village 20 years ago, he hasn't changed at all, and they also entered this cave..." Sister Yu said softly. As soon as I heard it, I became energetic, so I asked: "Then you also came in with them?" "That's right." Sister Yu said with a wry smile. Is it right?What does it mean?Xinhong and I looked at each other. It turned out that there were six people in the group twenty years ago, and the sixth person was the woman in front of me, Sister Yu!No wonder she is so familiar with the terrain here, I said that Sister Yu must have something to hide, but I didn't expect that the sixth person twenty years ago would be Sister Yu.You know, Miss Yu twenty years ago should have been a child, just like her daughter Xiaoyan.

"So, what did the old director Zha and the others come here twenty years ago, you should still remember?" I rubbed my waist and asked. "Let's not talk about that, do you still remember today's lunar calendar?" Sister Yu asked anxiously. "I remember it is the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month." Xinhong replied immediately. "Hurry up and find Xiaoyan, or she will be in danger after tonight!" Sister Yu's eyes turned red before she finished speaking. "You mean that the fourteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar is the ghost festival, and the gates of the underworld are open? Don't be superstitious, the 22nd century is almost here now!" I felt that Sister Yu's nervousness was too ridiculous, so I laughed softly. .

"You don't understand. When they came in twenty years ago, it happened to be the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month, but then..." Sister Yu became more and more nervous, and finally didn't know what to say. However, I was puzzled when I heard what Sister Yu said. She said, "When they came in twenty years ago, it happened to be the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month." How could she say "they" instead of "us"?Didn't Sister Yu just say that she also entered this cave in twenty years?Maybe she was worried about her daughter, so she was incoherent.However, after listening to Sister Yu's words, I always felt that she meant that she didn't go in with old curator Zha and the others, but she was the sixth person, so she should have gone in, otherwise how could she be so familiar with the terrain here.My mind was confused, so I patted my head and said, "Then let's go down. You planned to go down, right?"

"Yeah." After Sister Yu stood up, she stretched her muscles. The red beast was still climbing on the stone wall and looking at us. It blinked its round and big eyes from time to time, which made me feel more at ease.I continued to stroke the head of the red beast, and then slid along its huge body into the cave.The fur of the red beast looks like needles, but it feels softer than human hair.Immediately afterwards, Xinhong and Sister Yu worked together to release the old curator Cha from the body of the red beast. On the way, the old curator almost fell down, but when the red beast found it, he shook his body, and the old curator Cha It fell smoothly into my open arms.Only after Xinhong and Sister Yu came down in turn did the red beast retreat from the stone wall.It stood obediently beside us, and made a low voice from time to time.The cave spiders had already hid in the crevice of the rock at this time, and when they heard the sound of the red beast, they retreated a few steps further.

We put the old curator Zha on the back of the red beast, which saved a lot of effort, otherwise we would not have walked a hundred meters with an unconscious person on the road for more than ten years.It's a pity that the old curator Zha fainted before he approached us, and we haven't been able to find out anything from him until now, which means we haven't seen the old curator at all.Thinking about it, it’s really unlucky, but Marx taught us to look at things holistically and to be positive and optimistic. Now we can find the old curator Zha, and it is confirmed that he is still alive. Although he is very weak, he can finally feel at ease. .

The red beast followed us all the way to the other end of the cave, where there was also an exit, but it was much larger than the one we had just been in, and there was a rumbling sound of water coming up.I remember seeing the red beast rushing up from there just now, and it jumped vigorously, which shows that there is another big drop in the exit ahead!Xinhong is still holding on to the flashlight tightly, relying on the light to see everything in the cave clearly, thanks to him holding it tightly all the time, if I hold it, if something happens, I will definitely let go of it immediately.Although careless, I still knew to support the old curator Zha all the way, even though he already had a red beast on his back.I gently held the old curator's hand with my hand, and felt that his pulse was much stronger than before, and it was also very regular.This is the reaction only after the red beast yelled at us. I found that the old curator Zha became more curious about the red beast after he got better.Now the old curator Zha is just hungry, otherwise he would wake up immediately. Originally, he was not injured, but he fainted because of his weak body, and the cave spider frightened him just now.Now, I just hope that the old curator Zha can wake up as soon as possible, but there is nothing to eat on my body now, so I have to go forward first.

After walking a few steps, it suddenly occurred to me that Sister Yu was very surprised when she saw the red beast jumping up just now.Could it be that Sister Yu didn't encounter this monster when she came in twenty years ago, that's why she reacted like this today?Or was it that twenty years ago she saw the red beast was dead, but today she saw the beast alive, so she was taken aback?After much deliberation, I decided to ask clearly on the spot, so I asked, "Sister Yu, haven't you seen this animal before?" Sister Yu heard my question abruptly, and it took a long time to react. She scratched her wet hair and replied, "I haven't seen it. I never encountered such a strange animal at that time. I only saw a few spiders." "That's strange, I think this thing has lived in the cave for a long time." I said with a frown. "Maybe it's because the cave is too big and they missed it." Xinhong took the words and replied with a smile. "The last time, that is, twenty years ago, what exactly did the old curator Zha and the others come in for?" I continued to ask. "Treasure, they are here to find treasure!" Sister Yu gritted her teeth and said the words word by word. "Is there a treasure in the cave?!" I asked in surprise as I walked forward carefully. "Didn't they tell you that they seem to have a close relationship with you?" Sister Yu said strangely. "No, they didn't say anything." Xinhong replied disappointedly. "I didn't know these things at all. That year, I was..." "Chen Jinwei!" Sister Yu wanted to continue talking, but a voice calling my name burst out from the opposite exit, interrupting her words all at once.
