Chapter 129 Where Did Ruyu Go?

Disastrous eyes swept over everyone, and finally fell on Ruyu and Zhou Shui. Zhou Shui planned to go to the underground palace, but he was not ready yet.Just as he was stunned, Ruyu went down the underground well.Everyone didn't realize it for a while, Ruyu had already entered the stone gate of the tunnel.

Song Qian screamed: "Ruyu, what are you doing? Come back quickly."

Everyone could hear Ruyu Kongkong's footsteps walking towards the depths of the corridor.Song Qian reacted the fastest, and he also got into the underground well under the stone slab with a low body.Zhou Shui grabbed Song Qian's waist and pulled Song Qian back.

Song Qian's anxious expression was beyond words: "Why are you dragging me? Didn't you see Ruyu went in? Oh, this kid is so fucking annoying."

Zhou Shui let go of Song Qian, and said seriously: "Are you okay? You are a burden if something happens, don't worry, the local boss has gone in, let's ask about the situation."

Song Qian slapped his thigh: "You're still asking a fart, if you really want to do something, you just blink your eyes, and it will be too late to copy it." He said and went in again.

Zhou Shui held Song Qian down and whispered in his ear, "I promised you something, do you remember?"

As soon as Zhou Shui said this, Song Qian immediately became honest.Zhou Shui promised Song Qian that no matter what the situation was, he would be responsible for bringing Xiao Lu and Ruyu back.

Song Qian took a deep breath and calmed down.Zhou Shui took out a flashlight from the tool bag, thought for a while and stuffed two bottles of water into his pocket.He said to the shackles: "I'll go down. The people above you must remember, no matter what, don't let go of this slate. Even if you are sure that we will never come back, you are not allowed to let go of this slate, understand?"

Everyone nodded vigorously, and Zhou Shui asked again: "Do you still remember? At which gate did the two old men go?"

Disastrous people sighed, and said: "What's the pass? It was like a dream at the time. I remember that my father was the first to go down, and my grandfather and I were waiting on it. When it was not too late, we heard a scream. Me and My grandfather rushed down together. About ten meters into it, I found that my father was actually sucked by a wall, yes, it was sucked."

His voice trembled a little, and he continued: "My grandfather and I desperately grabbed my father's hand, trying to pull him back. How could we know that it would be better if we didn't pull it, because my grandfather and I were sucked to the wall together by this pull." What's even more frightening is that the stone wall was soft, like sticky rice cakes. The more we struggled, the deeper we sank, and finally seemed to be submerged by the stones."

Decades later, the face of the disaster is still full of fear when recalling it.He added: "My grandpa didn't see well at first sight. He kicked me with all his strength, and this kick hit me on the back. With this kick, I broke away from the suction force of the wall. The two old men But it was sent into the stone by the reaction force. I still remember that only one face of my grandfather was exposed outside the stone wall. The old man struggled and shouted, which was the word "go". In an instant, the two old people disappeared , only the word "go" is left echoing in the corridor."

Speaking of this, Jiren choked up: "Can I go? No, I'm back again."

Zhou Shui was silent. Zhou Shui himself had a vague explanation for why people could sink into rocks.Zhou Shui heard people say that stones can be played with like plasticine for some great masters of Tibetan Buddhism. For example, these eminent monks can leave handprints and footprints on rocks at will.You can easily insert your hands into the rock and take out the terma inside.

This is a kind of supernatural power of Buddhism. When an eminent monk realizes emptiness, he has the ability to surpass the four elements of "earth, water, fire, and wind".At this time, space and matter are no longer an obstacle to them.It is a powerful proof that Gongge Living Buddha was able to capture blood children thousands of miles away.However, this does not mean that our ancestors and fathers realized emptiness, but that the energy body in the underground palace has surpassed the realm of matter.

As he was talking, he heard a sudden cry from the underground palace.The voice was surrounded by the empty corridor, it was dull, sharp and lingering.Everyone outside couldn't help feeling empty.

It was Ruyu's voice, and Song Qian collapsed all of a sudden.Steady his mind, he was about to rush to the underground palace again, but Xiao Lu grabbed him, and then shouted loudly: "If you want to save Ruyu, you should be quiet, don't help. Zhou Shui is waiting to save people."

Song Qian grabbed Zhou Shui's hand, and said in an almost pleading tone: "Xiao Zhou, a gentleman doesn't forget old evils. This time... this time I can count on you."

Zhou Shui nodded heavily, he comforted Song Qian and said: "Don't worry, you are waiting on the ground, I am sure to bring him back."

Zhou Shui tightened his underwear and looked at Xiao Lu. He believed in Xiao Lu the most.He also instructed: "Remember, even if I don't come out for a month, I must not put down that stone slab."

Xiao Lu held Zhou Shui's hand and whispered in his ear: "Brother Zhou, Ruyu is still young. My father is 60 years old. You can decide for yourself. Also, if it doesn't work, you should get out first. Don't worry." Don't take chances, we can find another way."

At this time, Xiao Lu could still say such words, Zhou Shui felt warm in his heart, and he patted Xiao Lu on the shoulder.He just nodded and didn't speak.

There is a shallow footwell on the wall of the well, and the surrounding water flows down the footwell.Behind is the corridor of the underground palace, and a big gap is exposed in the two stone doors.Zhou Shui supported the stone door, and took a look inside with a flashlight. The inside was foggy, and he could vaguely see that the corridor was not straight, as if there was a bend, because the end of the flashlight was a wall.

Zhou Shui took a picture of the ground again, the floor was the rock of the mountain, covered with a thick layer of dust, and there were some messy footprints on the dust, which should be left by the people who came last time.Then there is a line of clear footprints, needless to say Ruyu has just stepped on it.Zhou Shui took a photo inside, and Ruyu's footprints followed the trend of the corridor, and disappeared when he turned around.

Zhou Shui walked in sideways through the gap in the stone gate. The light in the corridor was much better than expected. Zhou Shui got used to it and simply turned off the flashlight.The surrounding walls are faintly painted with murals.Zhou Shui didn't bother to take a closer look, finding Ruyu was the top priority.

Turning a corner, the light behind the ground well can no longer be seen.But what is surprising is that there is still light in the corridor. Zhou Shui searched, but there is no light source around. The light seems to seep from the murals. Is there a luminous object on the back of the wall?
Zhou Shui did not walk in the middle of the corridor.When the ancients designed the underground palace, it was also possible to design some anti-theft measures, such as traps, trip wires and so on.Walking in the middle of the corridor is far more dangerous than walking on the sides.But Zhou Shui had such a feeling that when walking on both sides of the corridor, the ground of the corridor seemed to be inclined.Because Zhou Shui noticed that his body seemed to be pulled to one side by a force.Just like walking in a crosswind, the body is subjected to a lateral force.

Ruyu's footprints are not very clear in the corridor, but they can always be found vaguely.Zhou Shui counted his steps, and when he walked 32 steps, Ruyu's shoe prints were completely gone.

Zhou Shui stopped in a hurry, and turned on the flashlight again. Under the clear light of the flashlight, there were two lines of footprints on the ground that stopped abruptly here.There is no doubt that one line is the shoe print of Zhou Shui's size 42.The other line is Ruyu's size 38 shoe prints. The second line of shoe prints runs naturally and smoothly without any mess.

In other words, Ruyu stopped here.Zhou Shui's feet didn't move, he turned sideways to check the walls on both sides.The wall was covered with murals. Zhou Shui searched carefully, but found no gaps or traces.Zhou Shui knocked again, and the sound of solid stone came back.Zhou Shui squatted down and inspected the ground again. The ground was covered with a centimeter-thick dust.This layer of dust is neat and uniform, and the original state has not been damaged in the slightest.In this way, the possibility of Ruyu going underground is gone.

Zhou Shui looked up at the roof of the corridor. The roof of the corridor was also full of stones, and it was also covered with murals.No matter how hard Zhou Shui searched, he couldn't find any trace of climbing.

Zhou Shui was quiet for a while, and after he overthrew all the possibilities, there was only one possibility left—Ruyu stepped back on the original footsteps.But this is also a paradox. First of all, Zhou Shui did not meet Ruyu in the corridor without any forks.Secondly, in this environment, no one can do it by stepping backwards and stepping on the original footprints with each foot.

Where did Ruyu go?
