there's a stick

Chapter 84
"Yi Shuiyang, where are you?" Shen Qianyi felt the ground was flat and asked quickly.

Suddenly, he felt a pair of arms hugging him, almost out of reflex. Shen Qianyi fell on his back with a clang, and Yi Shuiyang grimaced in pain.

Hearing this sound, Shen Qianyi realized that it was Yi Shuiyang who fell on his back just now, hurriedly ran over, helped him up and said, "What are you doing? I thought the dead body was picked up!"

Yi Shuiyang looked sad, rolled his eyes and said, "Even a zombie can't withstand such a fall from you!"

"Okay, okay, what were you yelling about just now? Are you okay!" Shen Qianyi asked as she picked up her backpack, and suddenly found that the surrounding seemed very spacious.

Yi Shuiyang signaled Shen Qianyi to silence, then pulled her forward, the people behind seemed to be hesitating and did not follow.

Pulled by Yi Shuiyang, with the flashlight shining in front of him, he realized that the road was indeed very spacious, about one meter wide and two meters five high. He didn't know the significance of such a design.

"Hey, what plan are you thinking about and didn't tell me?" Shen Qianyi asked while running along.

Yi Shuiyang smiled and said: "I'm taking a gamble. It's really difficult for me to find this place by myself, but it will be much easier with their help."

"And then? Are you planning to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" Shen Qianyi laughed dumbfoundedly.

Yi Shuiyang shook his head and said: "Not really, they should have come down immediately, but we have to seize the opportunity, otherwise I'm afraid they won't be able to come out at that time."

"Why?" Shen Qianyi asked doubtfully, if it wasn't for Yi Shuiyang, she wouldn't have come into contact with these weird things, and her knowledge was limited.

Keeping walking, Yi Shuiyang explained: "The place where I got the second pendant was in the tomb of Bian Que. Now that I think about it, except for the big leeches in the waterway at that time, in fact, it was safe in the tomb until I got the thing. It’s okay.”

"What really happened was when they tried to open the coffin, but the mechanism in the tomb was triggered, so they almost lost their lives."

"I thought this time would be the same as the previous few times. If you find a small hole and pick up a bag, it's fine. It might turn out to be another tomb. If they were a little bit greedy, I could only cry."

"I understand, if we don't move the things in the tomb, we might be fine, but we can, but they can't." Shen Qianyi murmured.

Yi Shuiyang nodded, and continued forward for more than an hour, but found that there was no way ahead. The two looked around, and there was a chain half a meter high on the left.

The two looked at each other, and they pulled it almost at the same time. A round hole similar to the entrance appeared in front of them, and then they climbed out.

Looking around, they immediately felt that the scene was familiar, and they returned to Heizhugou again, but the road section was different.

"The Shimen should be closed here!" Shen Qianyi pointed to the landmark building in front of him and said.

Yi Shuiyang looked over, his mind was a little dazed, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Well, do you think this Yi family would be so boring and build a straight line to Shimen Pass?"

Shen Qianyi spread her hands and said, "Then you have to ask the person who built this passage, what is it for?"

Yi Shuiyang sighed, and while hesitating, his eyes suddenly fell on the hole where the two came out just now, what seemed to be in his mind?
"What's wrong?" Shen Qianyi asked in confusion.

Yi Shuiyang glanced at the entrance of the cave, and then looked at a big tree about ten meters in front of the entrance, the ancient banyan tree, which was the same species as the one seen in the ancient banyan inn before, but it should be older .

Going in the direction of the ancient banyan tree, at the bottom of the ancient banyan tree where the roots and stems are intertwined, it seems that there is a stone tablet hidden in it, and most of the roots have been wrapped.

However, Yi Shuiyang still found something strange in it. There was writing on the stone tablet. There was only one word. You couldn't tell anything from just one part, but Yi Shuiyang had seen this word before.

In Bian Que's tomb, this character was carved on Bian Que's coffin, an ancient character Ji, which impressed Yi Shuiyang deeply.

"It might be here..." Yi Shuiyang said softly, squatting down, and reached out to caress the stone tablet.

The stone tablet moved due to the touch, and Yi Shuiyang suddenly felt his feet loosen. Shen Qianyi quickly grabbed it with quick eyes and hands, so that Yi Shuiyang did not roll down from the entrance of the cave.

Gathering his mind, he found a stone ladder under his feet, stood still slightly, and then heaved a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay, the bottom is not hollow."

Shen Qianyi glanced at it and said, "You are too careless!"

Yi Shuiyang smiled and said, "It's not that I was careless, it's that the designer is too narrow-minded, and he has a brain hole."

Covering his mouth and smiling, he vaguely heard movement at the entrance of the cave in the distance. Yi Shuiyang hurriedly went down a few stairs, and Shen Qianyi followed from behind.

Just after the two went down, Ge Zhengye had already raised his head at the entrance of the cave. He obviously saw the scene of the two going down, and then ran out in a hurry.

A group of people followed behind. They all saw the hole in front of them and looked at each other. They had come this far and of course they couldn't give up.

"Let's go, catch that kid and ask him what he didn't tell us!" Ge Wenxiao said, and went down first.

Ge Zhengye followed, and then the Zou family went down the stone ladder together, but there was no shadow of Yi Shuiyang and the other in front of them.

When Zou Xitai went down from behind, he also suddenly found that Ge Wenxiao and Ge Zhengye in front disappeared as they walked.

He was about to ask if Zou Yize saw him behind him, but when he turned around, he found that he was alone, there was no one behind him.

I wanted to go back, but found that the entrance above had disappeared. The further up I went, the longer the stone stairs became, and it seemed that I would never reach the entrance.

In desperation, Zou Xitai had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down, not knowing where it would lead. He always felt that the end of this stone ladder was the abyss of hell.

……

"Here is another stone gate?" Unknowingly, he walked to the end of the stone ladder, although he wondered why Zou Xitai and the others didn't follow up, but it was best for Yi Shuiyang not to follow up.

"Open it and try it!" With the experience of opening the Shimen Pass just now, he reckoned that there would be no danger, so Yi Shuiyang also said.

The two moved together, and the stone door opened in response to the sound, and a ray of light appeared in front of them, but the scene after they went out was a bit shocking.

"Is it my eyes, or have we really been here?" Shen Qianyi asked with a frown.

Yi Shuiyang shook his head and said, "No, it's not your eyesight. This is the No. [-] cliff ditch, which is our first entrance to Shimen Pass."

"Then why did we come back?" Shen Qianyi's voice was full of hesitation.

Yi Shuiyang didn't know either. After a moment of silence, he followed the entrance just now, opened it again and went in and said, "Since it is an arc, it means that the thing should be in the two passages. Let's look for it again."
