The fat Taoist led five soldiers, all holding guns, and walked along the river to the right.

Sun Guangmin said to the soldiers of the Northern Army: "Squad Leader Guo, take a few people and go to the left to see the situation."

"Yes, young commander."

Seven or eight soldiers, holding their guns, walked to the left of the river.

Sun Guangmin took a flashlight and shined a light into the underground river. The river water turned out to be black and completely opaque, and he couldn't see how deep the river was.

What's even weirder is that the river water is actually hot and steaming, and even a bubble will squeeze out from the water surface from time to time.

Sun Guangmin was secretly startled. In his memory, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of river.

Zhang Shijia stood on the bank, squatted down, looked at the river carefully, and said in surprise: "Ah, this seems to be the legendary Heicuo River. I have seen it in ancient books, and I always thought it was made up by the ancients." Yes, I didn’t expect this river to really exist.”

"Heizuohe, I've never heard of it. Is this Heiwei special?" Huang Ying looked at Zhang Shijia and asked.

"The Heicuo River in the legend is the weak water of the Tianhe River. The feathers are not floating, the birds are sad, and there are murderous intentions hidden in the river. It is very difficult to cross the river."

After listening, Sun Guangmin looked at the river in front of him with deep eyes. Although the river was dangerous and blocked his way, his confidence was not shaken and he decided to cross the river as soon as possible.

After about 5 minutes, the fat Taoist led a few soldiers and ran back.

"Report to the young commander, I... we went... there is no way... and... we can't get through."

The fat Taoist spoke out of breath, and after he finished speaking, he gasped heavily.

"Staff Zhang, take a breath and speak slowly."

The fat Taoist was running in a hurry just now, so he rested for a while, and then he calmed down, and then said:

"Young Marshal, we have walked a long way to the right, but the river there has not narrowed, and there is no single-plank bridge or anything. Anyway, we can't go there."

Sun Guangmin's eyes were bright, and he nodded slightly: "Well, I see, wait for Squad Leader Guo and the others, maybe there will be a way to go."

Everyone stopped talking and waited patiently for a few minutes before Squad Leader Guo rushed back with seven or eight soldiers.

"Report to the young commander, we went over there, but the terrain over there is the same as here, the river is very wide, it is impossible to cross it, and there is no bridge."

After squad leader Guo finished his report, Sun Guangmin said to everyone: "It seems that we have to find a way to cross the river from the place in front of us."

The fat Taoist said anxiously: "This river is so wide, and the current is quite fast. We don't have a boat yet, how can we cross the river?"

Everyone was silent, and everyone had the same thought, there was really no way to cross the river right now.

Sun Guangmin took the flashlight and kept shining it into the river, then whispered, "Maybe the river is not deep."

"Could it be that the young commander means that he wants to jump into the river and swim over?"

Zhang Shijia asked in surprise.

"What do you think? Is there any other way to cross the river?"

Sun Guangmin threw the problem to others.

"Young Marshal, I think it is absolutely impossible to swim there. This dark river is very dangerous. If you enter the water, you will die in vain."

Zhang Shijia immediately issued a warning, and then he took out a flying tiger claw from his body, and said: "Well, let me fish it, and let you see what's under the river."

Zhang Shijia threw the Flying Tiger Claw into the river, then pulled the rope connecting the Flying Tiger Claw, and slowly lowered it.

This flying tiger claw is made of fine steel. It looks like a tiger's claw. It can be stretched out, and it can be tightened by pulling it with a rope. This tool is very practical, and it is a tool that Zhang Shijia often carries on his body.

As an experienced tomb robber, you need to deal with many dangerous terrains. This flying tiger claw can be used to climb rock walls.

Zhang Shijia put the Flying Tiger Claw deep in the river, and then pulled the rope to pull the Flying Tiger Claw up.

On the hook of Flying Tiger's Claw, there was a skull hanging. The skull was not white, but black, which made Sun Guangmin and others gasp.

Zhang Shijia looked at the water marks on the rope and said, "I put ten meters of rope just now, and it should not have reached the bottom of the river, which shows how deep this black and weak river is."

"There is a black skull inside?"

Sun Guangmin muttered in a low voice.

"Young Marshal, if I'm not mistaken, there should be a pit of thousands of bones under the Heizuo River. The owner of this tomb may have killed thousands of people and thrown them into the Heisuo River, causing the river to condense its grievances. That's the danger."

Sun Guangmin thought about it carefully, then nodded slightly and said, "So that's the case. In this way, we can't swim over."

As soon as the voice fell, dense bubbles suddenly appeared in the river water, and the bubbles became bigger and bigger, as if something was about to come out.

Sensing the danger, Sun Guangmin immediately ordered: "Everyone back off, something is about to come out."

Everyone followed suit and immediately retreated.
