Cui Hao nodded, and took out a change of clothes from his body. After balling it up, he held it in his hand and took the lighter from my hand.
"Let's go, we must not let these things escape, otherwise it will be bad."
After Cui Hao pulled the buckle, he reached out and grabbed the rope and the raised stone bricks and climbed up behind me.
The two of us sped up and quickly chased those crab-like six-legged insects with translucent cartilage.
Hexapods are not very fast. Since they have no bones, they climb walls very slowly.
This was exactly what we wanted. It didn't take the two of us long to catch up with these cartilaginous worms.
I stretched out my hand and raised the clothes in my hand. After lighting them, I directly attracted a cartilaginous worm.
The bug screamed and fell from in front of me before I had time to react. It burned into a small fireball and rolled on the ground.
In addition to this bug, other bugs were also caught up by us. Each one was ignited by us and turned into a fireball and fell down the cliff.
I searched the surrounding walls carefully, and after confirming that there were no cartilage bugs, the two of us breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go back."
In order to prevent accidents, I crawled back and completely smashed the human figurine with a hole punched through it, and searched it from beginning to end.
After confirming that there was no six-legged insect in this thing, I breathed a sigh of relief, dragged Cui Hao and tied the rope again, and continued to climb up.
"Let's go! Don't touch other human figurines. This place is too weird. If a bunch of bugs are released again, I won't have the strength to deal with them."
Just now, the two of us were young and energetic, and we used our energy to deal with these bugs, so that we could drive them off the wall in time.
If we were to go through this again now, we would both have a nervous breakdown.
Cui Hao nodded and continued climbing up with me. We climbed back to the square exit just now, and the rope has reached its end.
I looked above my head, went straight into the hole, collapsed on the ground, and rested with my head facing the sky.
After Cui Hao climbed in, he lay directly next to me.
"I'm too tired. Do you still want to go up?"
I nodded and pointed above my head.
"We don't know what's up there yet. Let's go up and have a look. If there's nothing there, then we'll leave this tomb and go look inside other tombs."
I don’t know which pit the shroud is hidden in. We’re not so lucky that we have to search every cave, right?
The two of us lay on the ground paralyzed for about ten minutes, and then we relaxed a lot.
I raised my hand to open my backpack, took out the gauze and medicinal powder again, and took off the gauze originally tied to the palm of my hand.
Since I had just climbed again, the wounds on my palms had not yet scabbed, but they had been rubbed for a while, and now the skin was broken again, and the gauze was dyed red.
I was so weak just now that I really didn't have the energy to change the gauze. Now that I was almost rested, I took off the gauze stained red by blood and threw it aside.
Ready to replace with a new one.
After Cui Hao saw the palm of my hand, guilt immediately appeared on his face.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
After Cui Hao finished speaking, he quickly reached out and grabbed the gauze in my hand, and then brought some powder and sprinkled it on my palm to help me bandage it.
I shook my head and stared at the top of my head worriedly.
"You know it's easier to get down than it is to get up. It took the two of us more than double the time to climb up just now, and it was only because we had a rope as a leverage point that we didn't fall."
I pointed to the top of my head and looked at Cui Hao.
"But now we have to climb up. The surrounding rock walls are very slippery. If the two of us climb like this, I always feel that something will happen to us. And there is no way to get a rope when climbing up. What good ideas do you have? without?"
Cui Hao took out the dagger and shovel from his body, held them in the palm of his hand and smashed them against the wall.
However, since they were surrounded by stone walls, this thing was not easy to use. There was no way for them to be nailed into the stone walls.
Cui Hao looked at the soul-suppressing nail on the ground in embarrassment, and then pinched the rope tied to it.
"Otherwise, we should hold on to this rope and climb up. If we really fall, the rope can give us some tension to prevent us from falling directly to the bottom. What do you think?"
I thought about it and decided that this was the only way.
The two of us chatted for a while and rested for about half an hour before we were ready to set off.
I shook my arms, tightened the rope and fought back, then said hello to Cui Hao and took the lead in walking up.
There was a rope tied to my body, and I was tied to Cui Hao.
This way if one of us accidentally falls down, the other one can help hold on for a while.
Although the risks are equally higher.
Since I had climbing experience before, I was relatively familiar with the road this time, and I was able to grasp the protruding stone bricks much faster than before.
But the higher we climbed, the more we could clearly feel that the temperature above was several times higher than below.
Vaguely, big beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
Cui Hao was originally afraid of heat. After feeling the temperature above, he couldn't help but complain to me.
"When I went down, I was as cold as a dead dog, and now I'm going to turn into a roasted suckling pig again. Why is this place so weird?"
I laughed and scolded him a few times, but didn't rush to reply.
I still can't figure this out, and I can't make a conclusion.
I just urged Cui Hao to speed up and climb up as quickly as possible, because Ye and I felt that there were only twenty or thirty meters left from the top, and we were about to reach the top.
Sure enough, after we climbed up for nearly two or three minutes, I saw the upper edge.
But now, the stone has become a little hot to the touch. Every time we hold on to the stone, I feel like my palms are about to be burned out.
Cui Hao cursed and followed me, but Fu Shi was able to free his hand to take out a bottle of water from his body and pour it into his own hand.
"It's so hot that Grandpa will burn his skin off."
I am much better than him. After all, my hands are covered with gauze, so the temperature will be relatively better.
But the part exposed outside the gauze can still feel the blazing heat on the stone bricks.
The two of us tried our best and finally climbed to the top.
A wave of heat hit me instantly, and I couldn't help but take off a piece of clothing.
Cui Hao followed me closely, cursing in a low voice and taking off his coat.
"What the hell is this place? Is it so hot?"
After I took off my clothes, I quickly raised my flashlight and looked around.
At a glance, I saw that there seemed to be a huge pond dug in the center of this place.
It was steaming inside, apparently filled with boiling water, and looked like an underground hot spring.
"This place also has a hot spring. This dog emperor really knows how to enjoy it!"
Cui Hao took a step forward and reached out to test the temperature of the hot spring.
I quickly pulled the person back.
"Are you crazy? If there is something under the ground, your life is not enough to pay for it."
After I dragged Cui Hao back, I picked up a stone from the ground, pointed it at the hot spring water, and smashed it down.
Bang.
There was a layer of water splashing on the surface of the water, but other than that, there was nothing unusual.
I stared at the water carefully several times to make sure nothing climbed out, and then relaxed.
Cui Hao laughed and joked next to him.
"Master Xiao Man, you are just too careful. Although there are many strange places under the ground, this place is so warm. What could be in the water?"
After speaking, he glanced at his body and took a step forward with a strange expression.
"Let me tell you, the two of us crawled underground and sweated all over. Why don't we take a shower here? The water here is so warm, I think it's quite suitable for a bath."
I stared at Cui Hao speechless, pointed at the hot spring water and followed his words.
"Okay, you go now. If you don't jump in, I'll look down on you."
Cui Hao was so excited by me and said with a smile.
"Just kidding, I'm not really stupid."
He raised his flashlight and looked around, aiming at the hot spring water in front of him and searching carefully.
"It's strange why someone dug up such a hot spring in this place. It's just digging this thing. Where is the energy to burn the hot spring?"
I was too lazy to take care of these details. I left Cui Hao to study in place, turned around and walked out to the left along the hot spring water.
I have to see if the shroud has been hidden here.
There are layers of white mist floating in front of you. The water temperature here is too high. The water vapor rises and collides with the wall, turning into clouds of white mist.
The water mist dispersed in all directions and even formed a cloud of fog, blocking our sight.
Even though the space here doesn't look as big as the one below, the flashlight light never shines through this space because of the fog.
I could only keep walking forward and observe the situation within a dozen meters around me.
I walked forward for nearly a hundred meters, and the fog around me finally dissipated a lot.
I can already vaguely see the layout here.
Suddenly, several black shadows appeared in front of me.
Because I was too focused just now, I didn't check the situation in the depths of this hot spring. I planned to walk back along the left wall and walk around here.
I just didn't expect that I accidentally turned around and shined my flashlight into the depths of the hot spring pool, and saw so many gray-black shadows.
The distance between several of the shadows and Cui Hao is only twenty or thirty meters.
Unfortunately, the water mist near Cui Hao was the largest, and he couldn't see clearly what was ahead.
I realized something was wrong and immediately shouted to Cui Hao.
"Cui Hao, get up and come over to me."
He didn't know why he stood up and waved at me.
"Don't worry, I won't jump in!"
My heart was already in my throat, because the moment he stood up, the two gray figures in the mist suddenly moved.
