The little crybaby in the group, the young master is a softie
Chapter 370 The Intricate Connection Between Lu Jing and Hua Jianli (5)
President Yang pressed tightly against Lu Jing, staring at the diary without blinking, and even his breathing became lighter.
"Today, I finally came to this legendary cave." Lu Jing said softly, "Those ancient documents and mysterious rumors all point to the secrets hidden here that are enough to subvert cognition.
I stepped into it with great anticipation and a desire for the unknown. I firmly believe that this will be the greatest discovery of my life!"
The words at the beginning of the diary reveal the explorer's initial ambition and passion between the lines. Every stroke is written with vigor and force, as if you can see the writer's high spirits when he put pen to paper.
As the diary progressed, the handwriting on the paper became increasingly messy, and the strokes began to tremble.
“Everything in this cave is indescribably strange. The patterns on the wall seem to have life. After my flashlight passed through them, they seemed to be slowly moving.
The ticking sound was like a maggot on my tarsal bones, following me wherever I went. I always felt like there were pairs of eyes staring at me in the darkness, but every time I turned around in panic, only the thick darkness as ink swallowed me up.
Later, water stains appeared on the pages of the diary, like tears or blood.
"I saw something I shouldn't have seen. It was a huge figure, looming in the darkness, emitting a strange red light."
Lu Jing's voice also lowered unconsciously, with a hint of chill, "I tried my best to run away, but that thing kept chasing me. No matter where I hid, it could find me."
The words in the diary began to become distorted, and some parts were even smeared out and could not be seen clearly. One could feel that the writer was on the verge of mental collapse at the time.
"My food and water are long gone, but I haven't found a way out. Strange noises echo in the cave, like someone crying, or the roar of some giant beast."
Lu Jing's speech slowed down, his expression became more serious, "I know that I may never be able to get out. That mysterious thing may be the master of this place. It is playing with my life and treating me as prey.
Today, I accidentally saw a few corpses. I thought that they were explorers who were looking for secrets like me.
Their deaths were extremely tragic, with numerous wounds all over their bodies, as if they were repeatedly torn apart by countless sharp claws. Their eyes stared at the top of the cave with empty eyes, and their faces still showed the fear and despair before death. Looking at them, I seemed to see my own future. "
When Lu Jing read this, Mr. Yang couldn't help but shudder and held Lu Jing's arm tightly with both hands.
"I am suffocated and enveloped by endless despair. I have given up struggling. Death may be my only relief. In the last moments of my life, I write this down. I hope that those who read it will never step into this hellish cave. Hidden here is a horror that can devour the soul. Run away!"
The last few lines of the diary were written in crooked and messy handwriting. The last two words even had the tip of the pen scratching the paper because the pen was written with too much force. It was the most desperate struggle at the end of life.
Although Mr. Wang was afraid, he gritted his teeth when he thought about the possibility of finding clues related to the monster and said, "Mr. Lu, let's keep going. Maybe we can find the truth."
Lu Jing knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he just nodded.
After walking a few hundred meters, Mr. Yang suddenly stopped. He pointed forward in horror. His throat seemed to be choked by something, and after a while he uttered a trembling voice:
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu, look over there."
Lu Jing looked in the direction of his finger and saw more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground in front of him, their deaths were miserable.
Some had their eyes wide open, with traces of fear before death on their faces; some had twisted limbs, as if they had experienced great pain and struggle before dying.
Lu Jing looked solemn, trying to find some clues.
Suddenly, he discovered that one of the fresh corpses was holding a tattered compass tightly in his hand. The needle on the compass was spinning wildly, as if indicating some mysterious direction.
Lu Jing walked forward, pried open the corpse's fingers, and picked up the compass.
"Mr. Lu, what is the use of this compass?"
"I don't know either. Maybe it can lead us to the truth."
Lu Jing frowned and studied the compass. At this moment, the needle on the compass suddenly stopped turning and pointed to the depths of the cave.
"Hey! Does it mean to tell us that there is a monster inside?"
"Correct."
"Great! Go check it out."
They continued to move forward in the cave and discovered more corpses along the way. Each corpse died in a different way. Every time he saw a new corpse, Mr. Yang's fear deepened, but he never backed down.
As we go deeper into the cave, the temperature around us becomes lower and lower, and the eerie atmosphere becomes stronger and stronger.
Suddenly, a huge stone gate appeared in front of them. It was engraved with mysterious runes and patterns, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Mr. Yang's breathing was rapid and heavy, and fear flooded his heart like a tide, but the excitement and curiosity in his eyes were equally strong. After all, all this weirdness was exactly the "adventure" he had always dreamed of.
Lu Jing stretched out his hand and touched the runes on the stone door. A powerful force came from his fingertips. The power of the runes echoed with his spiritual power, causing ripples.
Seeing this, Mr. Yang asked nervously, "Mr. Lu, can you understand the runes on this stone door? Can we find the secret of the monster by opening it?"
Lu Jing shook his head. "I only know a little bit. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to open the stone door."
In fact, he knew in his heart that with his own cultivation level, it would not be difficult to force open the stone door, but he did not want to reveal his strength, so as not to make Mr. Yang excited to death.
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew in the cave, and the wind was whistling, as if countless evil spirits were crying.
Mr. Yang was so frightened that he trembled all over and subconsciously moved closer to Lu Jing, "What...what's going on with this wind?"
Lu Jing looked around vigilantly, and saw the surrounding fog began to surge and gradually condense into vague human figures. These human figures were looming, making shrill cries, and slowly approaching them.
Xue Moqian jumped off Lu Jing's shoulder and stood in front of the two of them. A faint red light shone around his body, and his nine tails expanded several times in an instant, emitting a powerful deterrent force.
Those resentful spirits felt the power of Xue Moqian and no longer dared to approach, instead they wandered and screamed not far away.
Boss Yang looked at Xue Moqian's powerful strength and was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. "This little fox is so powerful, it must be a god in disguise!"
Seeing this, Lu Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and once again focused his attention on the stone gate, carefully studying the arrangement and combination of the runes.
Suddenly, he found that the color of one of the runes flickered slightly, as if hinting at something.
Lu Jing stretched out his finger and gently touched the rune. In an instant, the runes on the stone gate began to emit a strong light, and the light intertwined to form a complex pattern.
Then, the stone door vibrated slowly, making a dull sound, and began to open slowly.
A strong stench of decay wafted in from behind the stone door, accompanied by a powerful dark force that made people feel cold.
Mr. Yang subconsciously covered his mouth and nose, but his eyes were shining with excitement, "Mr. Lu, the door is open!"
