Indiana Jones

Chapter 492 Re-entering Wonderland (03)

It has not been a day or two since Si Xuanyi entered the industry. It can be said that all kinds of strange things are not uncommon, but today he was really shocked by the huge cave tombs again. Large-scale tombs are already rare. But basically there are more than a dozen or even dozens of them, so the scale is not small, but here there are more than hundreds, which can be described as tens of thousands. It has to be said that Xiaolu's clan has experienced hundreds of years of Excavation and accumulation have built such a huge cave tomb community here, which can really be called a miracle contained in time.

The winding flames are still going on. I really don’t know how big this place is. Seeing the fire snakes climbing up the cave wall, everyone is shocked and speechless.

"I didn't find it, I don't feel that there are other people..." Ye Feng whispered after carefully identifying the movement around him.

"How far is it?" Si Xuanyi asked, but it was only after he finished speaking that he remembered that Xiao Lu had never been to this place before, so this question was like asking for nothing.

Xiaolu pointed in a direction: "You should be able to go to the altar over there."

"There are traces of people passing by here..." Ye Feng squatted on the ground and looked carefully, there were some footprints on the thin dust that really extended towards the direction Xiaolu said.

"Go..." Si Xuanyi looked in that direction, "The terrain here is wide, everyone be careful."

Originally, they all thought that there would be a very fierce battle in this place, but no one expected it to be so quiet. The quietness made them feel uncertain. Could it be that the group of people who came in before had already...

But now there is no time to guess wildly. Everyone picked up their guns, spread out, and moved forward cautiously. The silence here made them feel very uneasy, as if there were countless eyes watching on the four walls. They, making them feel unspeakably uncomfortable, they can even hear some strange sounds, but they can't find the source, which makes them tense.

Xiaolu said that their ancestors had spirits and was looking at them. They shouldn't have come here, but I hope they don't offend the spirits of their ancestors. graves, but the intensive way of burials really made them feel very uncomfortable. Si Xuanyi has always been in awe of the ghosts and gods. After all, he has seen them more than once, although every time he is not sure whether he is He had hallucinations, but after having those experiences, his awe was even heavier. He was not afraid of this place, but felt that this place was indescribably weird.

Looking at the flames burning in the ditch climbing up the rock, Si Xuanyi thought of the hallucinogenic kerosene that almost killed them in Savage Mountain, and knew that Li Siming still had some of that thing on him now. It was a good medicine for repelling insects. That's fine, the mosquitoes are not close, it is definitely the best choice for survival in the wild.

"Does this place make you feel a little emotional?" Li Siming seemed to see what he was thinking.

"Aren't you the same?" Si Xuanyi smiled wryly, "I remember it vividly, but it's a pity that those brothers..."

"Let's see if the two of us can live longer..." Li Siming approached the fire ditch and smelled it, and confirmed that the fire oil was different from what they had experienced in Yerenshan County.

"How many ancestors were buried here? Are there any records?" Si Xuanyi asked Xiaolu.

"There should be records on the wall... Brother Yin Lu said that there are epitaphs at the entrance of each cave, and each clan has its own burial tree. This is divided into divisions. Burials are based on family branches. The further down the division, the more The more centralized you go up." Xiaolu pointed at the top of her head, "The division was not so detailed in the first 200 years, and the rules were formulated by the ancestors of the past generations. Until today, almost every generation has new rules added. The old rules are not suitable to be removed. Generations of patriarchs and guides are in the Holy Land, the exclusive resting place. It will be a few years before I have the opportunity to enter, so now only Brother Yin Lu knows the situation besides the patriarch. How it is, I just heard them talk or describe it, so the actual situation may be different from what I said."

After listening to them, they noticed that there were indeed stone inscriptions at the entrance of the cave, but they were not in the mood to study them now. Saving people was the most important thing. There was no need to waste time here. After walking along the cave wall for more than ten minutes, a huge giant appeared in front of it. Heiying, when they got closer, they realized that it turned out to be a large stone pillar standing in the center of the cave. In fact, it is not appropriate to call it a stone pillar. It should be a huge stone platform with a height of tens of meters. This is the altar that Xiaolu said up.

"I really didn't expect it to be so big..." Xiaolu was also very surprised. There are a group of climbing steps on the outside of the stone platform, which are completely carved out of this huge stone. From the outside, it should be from the From top to bottom, it was dug out bit by bit.

"Footprints are up..." Ye Feng said after walking closer and taking a closer look.

"Go up and have a look..." Si Xuanyi said in a low voice.

Xiaolu opened her mouth to stop her, but in the end she still didn't speak. In fact, she also wanted to go up and have a look.

After climbing up the steps, they realized that there are not only one step but also two other directions. At the top is a circular altar with two small stone platforms in the middle and two sides. The head of a few devils was actually placed in the position of the product, and the body was thrown into the big pit in front of the stage.

"It's my people who used this method to appease the ancestors..." Xiaolu whispered, "This is a kind of life sacrifice..."

"There is still temperature, it won't be long..." Ye Feng touched the head on the altar with his hand.

"Why didn't you kill them all, just these two..." Zhao Chenggong took a closer look, but he didn't see any difference.

"Maybe it's an isolated devil..." Si Xuanyi stood on the edge of the platform and looked around. There was still a deep and boundless space in front of him, and he didn't know where it led, "They seem to have gone deeper. "

"Why can't I hear any sound?" Li Siming felt strange, how big is this place?Is it possible that the sound is too loud to be transmitted from farther places?It stands to reason that business in the cave will be infinitely magnified.

"There's nothing to say, just keep chasing." Si Xuanyi smiled wryly. Now they had no other choice. The disappearance of Lin Feng, Liu Xiaotian and others weighed heavily on his heart. Where did those people go?

After going down from the other side of the stone platform, they continued to walk forward, and soon they discovered that this place was not completely opened by man, but the further expansion and repair of the cave inside the body, which is more reasonable, after all No matter how powerful Xiaolu's people were, it was impossible for them to dig such a large space in the mountains.

After walking forward for quite a while, they actually heard the sound of water. The water was not rushing, and water vapor began to appear on the cave wall. This place is far away from the burial place of the Xiaolu people, and the surrounding light is already very dark. With the help of flashlights and torches, they could probably see the situation in front of them clearly. It was a very wide underground river with a stone bridge on the river. What surprised them even more was that there was a faint light on the other side of the stone bridge.

"Going out? Is there still an open space?" Si Xuanyi looked over there.

No one spoke, because no one knew about it, and neither Xiaolu nor her clan had ever been to this place.

After Ye Feng went up to the bridge to check, and confirmed that there was no problem, he called other people to go up. After passing the stone bridge, everyone hurriedly walked towards the direction of the light. At the beginning, they could only see a faint halo. The farther you go, the stronger the light is. You can't see the distance in the dark, but you can probably tell that it should be a small hole.

"Is it possible to get out this little?" Fang Yuanshan thought it was just a small hole.

"What are you afraid of? As long as there is an opening, I can open it up..." Zhao Chenggong is really not worried about this at all. He brought a lot of explosives in, but after walking for a long time, they still couldn't get close, but The entrance of the cave was getting bigger and bigger. After walking for half an hour, they realized that the entrance of the cave was actually very big. It was because they were far away that it seemed small.
Seeing the light, everyone felt much better. They almost rushed all the way to the entrance. After getting closer, they realized that it was a very huge cave, which was as high as several floors, and the outside was green. Only then did they realize that there was a huge valley below, with trees in the valley, lush vegetation, and surrounded by sharp mountain walls. Their position was in the middle of the mountain wall, and there were two moss-covered steps extending down beside it.

"Grandma's, there's actually a hidden hole in the sky." Zhao Chenggong felt relieved when he looked at the scenery outside. This feeling of seeing the light of day can only be experienced by those who have experienced life and death in the dark.

"Look over there..." Ye Feng pointed to the depths of the valley. There seemed to be something different there. After careful identification, it seemed to be a group of man-made buildings.

"That should be the resting place of the patriarchs and guides of the past generations." Xiaolu guessed.

Then they heard gunfire again, in the woods below, and it didn't seem too far away.

"Go down..." Si Xuanyi waved his hand, and walked towards the steps first.

The steps are covered with moss, and they are extremely slippery to walk on. If you are not careful, you may roll down. If your feet are not stable and you roll all the way to the end of the tens of meters long steps, you may die, but at this time they really I don't care about these, I don't know how Lin Feng and the others are doing, they may be fighting fiercely with the devils, they must rush over to help out as soon as possible.

When they got below, they realized that the forest here was too dense. The vegetation grew so wildly that it almost blocked the entire valley. I passed a small path, the woods covered the sky and the sun above my head, the light was dark, but it was ten thousand times better than in the cave, the woods were full of bugs and small animals running around, in this place, they quickly lost their way Fortunately, there is still this path, otherwise they would not know which way to go. This should be the path left by Xiaolu's clansmen after entering, but it has been deserted since no one has visited it all year round. The traces left, the tree branches on the side of the road were obviously cut down by people, but after years of crazy growth, they have been sealed up in sevens and eighty-eight, and they can only drill around in it, but other places except here It is almost impossible to leave, the huge thorns always have thick legs, and the overgrown branches are full of barbs. Their clothes were scratched after walking too far. I really don’t know how those little devils and Lin Feng got there. , Ye Feng had no choice but to walk ahead with a knife to open the way. The ground was full of snakes, rats, and ants. I don't know if the snakes here are poisonous, but they are indeed not small, not to mention the thickness of arms that can be seen scurrying around.

"Why is it so hot here?" Zhao Chenggong was sweating profusely after a while.

"This is a deep and middle basin. The terrain is much lower than the outside. There are mountains all around. If the wind doesn't blow in, it may be hotter." Li Siming said that both he and Si Xuanyi had jungle combat experience in the expeditionary army. The environment is similar, but the temperature is indeed not comparable to Savage Mountain, and it doesn't seem that dangerous.

Not far away, they saw the huge stone statues hidden in the branches and vines on the side of the road. These stone statues stood with knives and were more than three meters high. , is really hard to find.

"This is the guard of the holy land of the ancestors." Xiaolu said, "I heard the patriarch mention it, which means that we are very close to the holy land."

"Where is this holy place of yours? Didn't you say that you entered the entrance, it's inside, why haven't you arrived yet?" Zhao Chenggong asked.

"I've never been here either..." Xiaolu's words left Zhao Chenggong speechless.

Suddenly they heard a strange sound like the roar of something...

"Tiger Roar?" Ye Feng recognized it, "It doesn't look like..."

"It is said that there are holy beasts guarding here, and only qualified people can enter, otherwise they will be eaten by holy beasts." Xiaolu said with some fear.

"You have so many legends..." Zhao Chenggong shook his head.

"It's surrounded by mountains, it's normal to have some wild beasts, everyone, be careful." Si Xuanyi looked around, he knew how dangerous this kind of place was, wild beasts were likely to lie in ambush a few meters away from them, and in such a dense forest Under the cover of vegetation, they can't see at all, so basically they can't defend against it. If it's a wild beast, it's fine. What if it's an enemy who ambushes?They are really miserable.

Hearing the sound of gunshots, it seemed that they were right in front of them, but after walking for a long time, they failed to reach the battlefield. In desperation, they could only continue to move forward. Ye Feng, who was walking in front, stopped. He waved his hand to signal everyone not to move, and said in a low voice, "It smells like blood."

The others didn't find anything unusual, nor did they smell the so-called bloody smell, but this kid's perception ability is different from ordinary people, so they didn't dare to be careless.

After a while, Ye Feng walked forward cautiously. After pushing aside a thick bush, they saw the huge stone statue again, and the stone statue was holding a person in its hand...
