Five or six meters away from Xiaoliuzi and I, there was a fault, the kind of cliff abyss that is impossible to estimate.
Because it was far away, we could only see the darkness under the fault. We didn't know what the depth was below, whether it was a shallow pit of only one or two meters, or an abyss as deep as ten thousand feet.
I carefully walked to the edge of the fault and stretched out my flashlight to shine down.
I saw that the bottom was not a shallow pit, nor was it an abyss. Under the light of the flashlight, I could vaguely see dark objects everywhere, or because the distance was too far, I couldn't see clearly what the objects everywhere were. What.
Under the illumination of the flashlight, I could vaguely see the reflection of a large area of silver light. Also because of the distance, I couldn't see it very clearly. Anyway, it felt very huge.
At such a high distance, I made a rough estimate, and it was at least a few dozen feet away. It would be almost impossible to get down. Even connecting the rope in my backpack to Xiao Liuzi's saber chain would not be enough. .
There was still a way, but I didn't know how to get down. This made me a little annoyed. I raised my foot and kicked the ground hard on the edge of the fault cliff.
With this kick, I felt as if I had hit some hard bump, which caused some pain in my toes.
When my feet hurt, I became even more irritated. Cursing in my mind, I shined the flashlight towards my feet, trying to see what was blocking the way of my feet.
I thought it was a raised stone, but when I shined my flashlight on it, I actually saw light reflected by metal.
When I looked closely, I saw that there was a rivet as thick as my thumb embedded deeply into the ground in front of my feet.
And above the rivet, there is actually a rope connected to the bottom of the cliff.
"This is my dad's rivet!"
Xiao Liuzi suddenly screamed, and then shouted loudly at the bottom of the dark cliff.
The voice was so loud and harsh, but there was no response at all. It was conceivable that there was no one down there at all.
Although no one responded, one thing was certain, that is, Xiao Liuzi's father had obviously fallen off the cliff.
And Mr. Liu Ba was traveling with Xiao Liuzi's father, so he must have gone down to the bottom of the cliff together.
"Brother Dongzi, I'll go down first, and you can follow later."
Perhaps seeing clues about his father, Xiao Liuzi couldn't wait to be the first to climb down the rope.
After Xiao Liuzi grabbed the rope and climbed down, I followed closely.
Just when my whole body was hanging in the air, a rustling sound suddenly came from my ears.
I was very surprised and quickly looked towards the dark place where we came from.
It would be okay if I didn't look at it, but I was so shocked that I almost lost my grip and almost fell from the height of 100 meters.
In the darkness, pairs of eyes glowing with green light appeared vaguely. There were dozens of pairs at a glance, and among these dozens of pairs of eyes, there was a pair of very beautiful eyes. Special, because the light emitted by those eyes is not green, but blue...
I didn't expect that Brother Leopard would come back again and bring back dozens of monsters.
I couldn't help but feel a little lucky about this and sent Liu Qiaomei out. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know how to deal with it at the moment.
Those pairs of eyes were getting closer and closer to me. I knew that if I continued to stay where I was, I would definitely be bitten by them.
So I didn't stop. After stabilizing my body, I started to slide down quickly.
While sliding down, when I looked up again, I discovered that dozens of pairs of eyes had appeared on the cliff.
Those pairs of eyes stared straight at me, seemingly unwilling to do so, but they had no intention of chasing me.
They are not human and do not climb like humans, so in my opinion, I may be safe for the time being.
As I continued to slide down, the pair of eyes glowing with green light became blurry and blurred, and finally they were completely swallowed up by the boundless darkness.
If I was traveling normally, the distance of 100 meters would only take two to three minutes at most, but the 100 meters straight up and down took me more than half an hour.
Fortunately, climbing is also among the skills I have learned. Otherwise, I would never have been able to persist for such a long time with my bare hands.
After hanging for more than half an hour, my feet finally touched the long-lost ground.
Since climbing requires the use of two hands, I changed the flashlight into a headlamp in advance and fixed it on the top of my head.
Using the light of the headlamp, I hurriedly examined my hands. No wonder my hands felt like they were on fire. I had apparently developed several large blisters.
A few big blisters are indeed a bit uncomfortable, but these small injuries and pain are nothing to me.
The more painful thing was from my side ribs. Although I simply applied some medicine to stop bleeding and pain, Liu Tingting also gave me a simple bandage before leaving.
But due to the climb, I actually got injured again, which was really heartbreaking.
Xiao Liuzi is much better than me. Such a height doesn't seem to be a big deal to him. He doesn't have any blisters on his hands.
But I found that the calluses on his hands were very thick. Apparently such climbing was a common occurrence for him.
"Dad, dad!"
After reaching the bottom of the cliff, Xiao Liuzi called out again, but it was still as if nothing happened and he didn't get any response.
It was still dark in front of me, and I couldn't see clearly what the situation was.
In order to cope with the environment in front of me, I adjusted the light of the headlight to the maximum setting. Only then could I barely see the scene within tens of meters in front of me clearly.
When I looked along the light of my headlamp, I was stunned by what I saw.
I saw a smooth street in front of me, and on both sides of the street were stone houses one after another.
Those houses are all made of blue bricks and stones. Their style is the architectural style of the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. It makes me feel like I am in an ancient street above the ground.
The difference is that in real life there will be a lot of smoke and smoke on the streets, but here it is as dead as hell.
The street has no end as far as the eye can see, and it seems to be a small town hidden underground.
"Ah...Dad...!"
Xiao Liuzi shouted again.
I thought this was a sign of unwillingness on his part, but I never thought that he would actually rush towards the strangely silent street in front of him.
I was very puzzled by this, and I opened my mouth to call him out, but as soon as I opened my mouth and before I could shout out, I actually saw in the corner of a house in the street. A vague figure.
The figure disappeared as soon as it was illuminated by the headlight, and the place where Xiao Liuzi was running at this time was the direction in which the figure disappeared.
"Xiao Liuzi!"
I shouted, but when I shouted, Xiao Liuzi had already turned around the corner of the house and disappeared before my eyes.
I'm sure I saw a figure, but I'm not sure if it's Xiao Liuzi's father. If so, he could just walk out and reunite with Xiao Liuzi, so why hide?
The figure's sudden flash away was so strange that it made me worry about Xiao Liuzi's safety. Seeing that Xiao Liuzi disappeared, I hurriedly stepped forward and ran towards the house where Xiao Liuzi disappeared. passed.
Maybe it was because they were far away, but I didn't think there was anything wrong with those houses before.
It wasn't until I stepped closer that I realized that all the houses on this entire street were very short, only one-third of the height of normal houses.
So when I straightened up, I was more than a head taller than the houses. It made me feel that those houses were even worse than shacks.
Could such a low house be for dwarfs to live in?
A strange idea suddenly came to my mind.
Of course, I just thought about it casually and didn't really take it to heart. At the moment, I just wanted to catch up with Xiao Liuzi quickly so that I could clearly see whether the figure was a human or a ghost.
