Chapter 163 Back Mountain Cave ([-]) One more

"That thing is poisonous, not to mention bitten, even if you encounter it, you may die." Song Gu said seriously.

Several people were silent for a moment.

"Should someone come up from the mountain to look for someone?" Wu Chen suddenly asked.

Yu Shi'an and Senior Two were confused when they heard this, Song Gu thought about it for a while, and said excitedly:
"There should be something on them that can keep the black worms still! Otherwise, they won't be able to get the books and letters they want. You see, the previous cave is a ghost, and this cave is a corpse. There must be another cave behind. I don't think Su Chang Will stay in the front two holes for a long time, those books and letters, especially books need to be read from time to time..."

The second year of high school said: "That makes sense! Su Chang is no longer a person, and he would not read books in this kind of place. It must be in the cave behind. In this case, those men in black must pass through here if they want to get things. They must have something on them. What!"

Wu Chen nodded and said: "Even if the dozen or so people had them, I beat them to nothing. They were going to enter the cave. The way they walked was the same as ours. If they didn't have self-defense, they wouldn't even be able to enter the cave. .”

Yu Shi'an and Senior Two also understood, Yu Shi'an said: "Let's go back to the entrance of the cave immediately, and when they send people up the mountain again, we can get the self-defense, and then go through here to the cave behind, this time is not to destroy the cave when."

Wu Chen nodded and said, "Wait for me here..."

"Let's stay together!" Song Gu grabbed Wu Chen's arm and said, "Following you, we will feel at ease."

The sophomore and Yu Shi'an hurriedly nodded their heads, and the soldiers also wanted to nod, but he could think of it now but couldn't do it, so he could only follow Yu Shi'an mechanically.

Wu Chen nodded and turned to lead the way.

But just a few steps back to the first cave, the people behind stopped still, and Yu Shian asked in a low voice: "This place...is it full of ghosts?"

Wu Chen sighed and said, "You can't see it, I'm afraid I'm afraid, you just keep your heads down and look at the road."

It's easy to say, but hard to do.

This trip was much slower than the previous one, and Wu Chen still had to answer some questions from the ghosts from time to time, explaining that he was not leaving, but was going to fetch some things. They made up and directed a scene in their minds, which made their legs tremble uncontrollably. They wanted to run over regardless, but Wu Chen was the first one to walk. If he didn't run, the people behind wouldn't. Dare to run.

Finally walking back to the entrance of the cave, several people breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Chen lowered his head and listened carefully, then smiled and said, "They are quite cooperative."

Only then did a few people notice movement at the entrance of the cave.

Wu Chen stepped forward and struck out with a palm, and the rocks at the entrance of the cave flew out immediately, so frightened Gao Er hurriedly shouted: "Take it easy! Don't hit them all again."

The entrance of the cave appeared again, but there was no one standing outside the cave.

Wu Chen had no choice but to remove the rocks, and several people searched for the corpse together.

After being frightened in the cave, seeing the corpse again, no matter how smashed it was, the few people remained indifferent.

It didn't take long before several people found the small cloth bag on several corpses.

Some of these small cloth sacs were soaked in blood, some burst to reveal black powder, and they might have failed. Wu Chen counted them, and after removing the unusable ones, there were exactly five left.

The five people hung the cloth bags on their waists and entered the cave again.

"Don't you need to block the hole?" Gao Er asked as he walked.

Song Gu said: "Even if they still have accomplices, they will not come up so soon."

It's right to think about it in the second year of high school.

Several people went to the second cave again, this time Wu Chen walked alone first, the little cloth pouch was really useful, Wu Chen walked safely to the opposite side and turned around to pick up a few people and walked over.

When I approached the third hole, I found that there was a door here, and it was an iron door.

Wu Chen didn't dare to hit it hard. He held down the iron door with one hand, and slowly pushed hard.
"Don't worry, let's take a look at it first. I'm afraid you pushed the iron gate down, and the cave will be destroyed. Look, there is no lock on the outside of the iron gate, so it can't be bolted on the inside, right? Those people at the foot of the mountain How can I get in? Even Su Chang can’t get in when he comes back, unless someone opens the door.”

After speaking in the second year of high school, I was terrified.

Wu Chen stopped, and carefully inspected the iron doors. The two iron doors were very smooth, and there was no knocker handle that could be pulled. They were obviously doors that were pushed in. But the second year of high school was right, how could Su Chang go inside? the latch?The people at the bottom of the mountain are here to fetch things, how do they get in?
"Didn't Su Chang say that the eight apprentices have all left? How could there be someone inside?" Song Gu asked.

Wu Chen wanted to pass the torch, and carefully looked around the iron gate: "Take two steps back, this iron gate can be knocked down." Wu Chen said as he handed the torch to Gao Er, then took out the jug from his arms with one hand, and Push the iron door again.

After a while, there was a 'bang' sound, and the iron gate actually hit the ground, gravel fell down, and dust covered the entrance of the cave.

Wu Chen fanned the dust in front of him with one hand, carefully took two steps inward, looked carefully, but saw a pair of red eyes in the pitch black and dust mist.

Wu Chen hurriedly opened the lid of the jug, poured a few drops into his hands, and asked loudly, "Where is the monster yet?"

The people behind were close together, and the torch in Gao's second hand seemed to be a little in the way.

After Wu Chen yelled, there was no more to say. He took two steps back, waiting for the gravel and dust to settle down, and then looked for the switch on the wall. No matter what, it was better to have some light around than to go in like this.

Several people waited quietly for the gravel to fall. Wu Chen was about to raise his hand to touch the wall when there was a 'bang' in the hole, and it turned on automatically.

"Is this voice control or temperature control?" Wu Chen muttered, and looked into the cave carefully, resisting the urge to rush in.

There were dozens of 'beds' placed on the left side of the cave, and there were people lying on them. The beds were separated by wooden boards. Wu Chen couldn't confirm whether the people on them were still alive, so he didn't dare rush in rashly. Because there are several pillars on the right side of the cave that are the same as those in the first cave, and there is also a bed, and a small table on the bed is placed with something that looks like a magic weapon. Wu Chen carefully looked between the pillars and found that it was There are a few ghosts that look vague.

Wu Chen has never encountered this kind of situation. If he can see, he can see it. He can see it very clearly. If he can't see it, he can't see it. He can't see anything. What is the situation like this?Who were the red eyes in the darkness just now?Who lit the candles on the mountain in the cave?
"Can you hear me?" Wu Chen asked the ghosts in the middle of the pillar.

The ghost image didn't answer, but there was a sound from the left side, which was a slight friction sound.
