Release that Witch Chapter 1123: underground coffin


Rex, who had been waiting here, stretched out two fingers, first pointing at the top of his finger, then deep into the water hole.

Simbad made a clear gesture.

The former nodded, turned and walked towards the cave.

He is raised head, watching the gas pipeline suspended above the opponent's head for three days of underwater walking. In addition to being familiar with the basic operation of diving gear, it is also a process of learning sign language and diving details. Among them, observing the state of the two tracheas at any time is even more important, which is one of the reasons why two people need to cooperate in salvage.

As a channel to maintain breathing, the other end of the leather tube is connected to an steam engine-driven air pump, which inflates air in and out, so that the air in the helmet always remains unobstructed. No matter which tube is broken or blocked, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, you must pay special attention when crossing complex terrain and changing directions.

After seeing that there are no obstacles to the gas pipeline at the top of the cave, Simbad also took a step forward and got into the water hole.

The surge in his ears abated a lot, and he could clearly hear the hissing sound from the valve and his heartbeat.

After walking about ten meters, the light became increasingly dim. Looking at the blurry back of Rex in front, he felt like he was moving towards the abyss.

At this moment, the ground under my feet suddenly lifted upwards, from a section of flat road to a gentle slope.

Within half a quarter of an hour, Simbad actually saw the surface of the sea again. It was no longer golden, but was as quiet as night.

As Rex slowly surfaced, he couldn't help holding his breath, and saw a huge cave appear in front of the two of them. Most of its outline is hidden in the dark, only a small area of ​​the dome is illuminated by the light of the sea water mapping come in, revealing the faint blue dangling and sparkling.

This water hole turned out to be a passage connecting inside and outside?

He climbed ashore struggling, trying to take off his helmet, but was stopped by Rex.

The fjordman took out a waterproof oil lamp from his belt bag, and after igniting the wick, he observed it for a while before taking off the helmet.

"Is there a wind?" Simbad immediately felt the coolness of passing his cheeks after lifting hood.

"Yeah, there may be other exits in the cave," Rex said excitedly. "In this way, the possibility of finding treasures here is a little bit greater, and our luck is really good."

Simbad is not interested in finding good things. He cares more about the security situation in the hole. I did not expect that there would be a hollow terrain below the desert, which is beyond common sense. Their dive depth will not exceed 20 meters, and even if there are rock formations, they will not be too thick. How does the loose sand support a large cave? Will the dome collapse? These questions made him a little disturbed.

After going out, I'd better report the findings to Greycastle people. Simbad thought that although I was a bit sorry for Wonder Objects Society, it was not far from Daqing Port and he didn't want any accidents.

"The wind seems to be coming from that direction," Rex put his helmet by the pool, lifted the oil lamp, "Let's go and see."

Simbad had to pull out his waist knife and slowly followed.

However, as the exploration progressed, he just felt that the cave became more and more strange.

It didn't take long for the rocks at the feet to become soft soil, and then clusters of green grass replaced the slippery moss, as if it were not underground here, but Silver River oasis.

"It's incredible that green leafy plants can grow here," Rex exclaimed. "I thought the dim underground would only have mushrooms and moss."

"Well ... let's go back first," Simbad hesitantly said, "I always feel here"

Suddenly he paused.

"What's wrong here?" Rex didn't get Echo for a long time, so he couldn't help looking back, "Yeah? What are you looking at ... a flower?"

Simbad just felt that his breathing was a little quick, and there was a beautiful little flower at his feet, the petals were lavender, and the leaves were almost as thin as cicada wings, as if they were broken by a pinch. "This is ... the flower of god's envoy ..."

"Very rare?"

"No ... it used to be everywhere." Simbad whispered, "Although I haven't seen it myself, in the legend about the three god's envoys, this kind of flower spreads along the coast, like a purple satin It is also the most beautiful flower in Extreme Southern Region with a general belt. "

"In the desert ... is there a sea of ​​flowers?" Rex exclaimed.

"It is said that here long ago it was not a desert, but trees, grasslands and rivers like the north side." He shook his head. "But with the departure of the three god's envoy people, the earth gradually became sandy and has become what it is today. It looks like. But what I want to say is not that the flower of god's envoy has a very detailed description in the legend. Once it takes root, it can no longer be moved. This is why there is no sea of ​​flowers in the oasis. It should have been extinct long ago ... "

"That's what happened." Fjord people pursed their lips. "Perhaps it is because the desertification did not affect the underground cavity that the flower of god's envoy that happened to be rooted here survived."

Is that so ... Simbad's feeling of strangeness intensified even more. For some reason, walking in this dim world, he felt like walking on an oasis.

The purple flowers around are gradually denser, and it does n’t seem to grow underground accidentally.

Just as he hesitated to continue moving forward, a "kā chā" sounded suddenly under his feet.

Then a soft light burst out of the soil, illuminating a range of several meters.

"What situation?" Rex asked in surprise.

"I ... I seem to have stepped on something," Simbad swallowed, "seems like a wooden board."

"Is it a trap?" He quickly leaned down and lifted the flowers beside his feet with his hands. "This is ha, haha ​​... Hahaha ..."

Hearing the laughter echoing in the hole, Simbad felt that the hairs were standing up. "What's funny, hey, first tell me what it is!"

"Hahaha, it's a treasure! We have found the treasure!" Rex exclaimed, "Look at it!"

After he lifted all the dirt away, Simbad was surprised to see that the light came from the feet. It was a half-buried "stone monument" buried in underground, with numerous veins spreading on it, dense like fingerprints. general. The light radiates from his feet as the center, and the monument is shaped like white jade. But even though it looks hard, it feels like decaying wood, and it will sink a little with a little force, which is completely beyond the scope of common sense.

What's even more incredible is that once you remove your feet, the surface of the monument will gradually return to its original shape, and the light will also disappear, as if everything you just saw is an illusion.

"Are there any more magical treasures than this!" Rex stepped on the "stone monument" repeatedly, exultingly, "If you can dedicate this to King of Greycastle, the honorary explorer title is definitely me!"

"But ... it's too big," said Simbad. Judging from the small piece exposed, the whole of the "Stone Stele" is likely to be larger than the two of them. Moving out of the cave is no easy task.

"People think about it. As long as we use our brains, we can find a way. Or we can go to the other exit of the cave?" Rex stopped suddenly. "There seems to be another piece there."

Simbad followed his gaze a few steps forward, and sure enough he stepped on the same "stone monument". With its light, more off-white silhouettes appeared in the sea of ​​flowers.

"There are also, there are also ..." The two walked along these steles for dozens of meters. They counted the numbers silently at first, but quickly dispelled the idea.

In a short distance, the flower of god's envoy has been covered by more and more steles. No matter where they settle, the light will shine.

Until a huge wall stands in front of the two.

"Oh my gosh ..." Rex took a breath.

Simbad also felt a bit of chill. He slowly raised head came under the soft light, and the outline of the stone wall was revealed little by little. They found that it was not a "wall", but a hill formed by countless monuments stacked together.

Some of them are incomplete and some are broken into several sections, but most of them are shaped like a square box, which is not an exaggeration. But when they are horizontal and vertical, they give Simbad another feeling.

The "coffin" buried.
