I never expected that the wall that originally existed would suddenly become empty.
I just felt like the world was spinning around me, there was nothing under my feet, and my whole body was falling like an object.
It may have been a long time, or it may have been only a second or two, but my hand was grabbed.
Because I couldn't see anything in the darkness, I just felt empty under my feet and I was hanging in the air.
But the feeling of being grabbed by a hand on my wrist was incredibly real.
At the same time, I heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from above my head.
"hold onto!"
It took me several seconds to figure out who the owner of this voice was.
Just when I wanted to speak, I heard a muffled groan, and a strong force suddenly came from my hand, and then I was pulled up.
The first time I went up, I lay on the ground and gasped for air.
At that moment, I felt like this was the closest I was to death.
I originally thought that as long as I followed Uncle Yan closely, the danger to me would not be too great, and I had never been afraid of going deep underground along the way.
But this time I was really scared.
I lay on the ground and relaxed for a long time before I finally came back to my senses.
"Li Dabao?"
"What are you asking me to do? I was almost killed by you."
Li Dabao's voice came from not far away from me.
Because it was so dark here that I couldn't see my fingers, I asked Li Dabao if there was any light source?
Li Dabao replied: "I just dropped the flashlight to hold you, and there are only a few candles left. Please wait for me and let me rest for a while!"
After saying that, it fell into silence again, and we could only hear the sound of water flowing below us, and the cold wind coming from below.
"puff……"
After a moment, a bright light lit up from the darkness, and I saw Li Dabao's naive face, as well as his tired look.
In the deep darkness, even the faintest light can make a nervous and fearful person feel an inexplicable warmth.
Li Dabao saw me staring at him and snorted: "Get up slowly, rest for a while, let's go down again...!"
Only then did I care enough to look around at my surroundings.
At this time, we are on a step, but the step is broken. There is a fault on the left, and there is a bottomless 'abyss' below.
There should be stone steps behind Li Dabao, but because the candlelight was too weak, I couldn't see clearly.
Then asked where is this?
Li Dabao dug out a package of broken compressed biscuits from his bag, tore it open and put it in his mouth.
There was even a little left for me.
Looking at the compressed biscuits handed over by Li Dabao, I didn't refuse. After all, I was really hungry, although I didn't know how he still had food on him.
As the compressed biscuit powder enters the mouth, an indescribable taste fills the entire mouth.
I don’t even know how I swallowed it. When I fell down just now, my backpack also fell off.
As for water, I didn’t bring any with me at all.
After coughing heavily for several times, he regained his breath.
Li Dabao didn't laugh at me when he saw me like this, but asked me very seriously, "Don't you think it's strange?"
I was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Li Dabao's words meant.
Li Dabao repeated the question he just asked.
"Don't you wonder why I saved you?"
Looking at Li Dabao's eyes, I shook my head and said I didn't know.
At the same time, he asked why he was running and where was he?
Li Dabao snorted coldly and said, "What a joke, if I don't run away, will I be sacrificed by your Uncle Yan?"
"To say that you kind of tomb robbers are insidious and ruthless. If it weren't for you, Mr. Bao, I would have kept a secret in advance. I would have gone to report to the Lord of Hell now."
As he spoke, Li Dabao leaned on the wall and said: "This is a mountain mezzanine. You can also understand it as an abandoned place in the entire tomb. It is the escape passage prepared by the craftsmen in the past, but I don't know why. This The escape route is not completely open...!"
After Li Dabao finished speaking, he stood up slowly, picked up the candle, and then asked me to follow him carefully.
I followed Li Dabao down the narrow stone steps, and in about ten minutes I entered a cave with obvious artificial carvings.
The entire cave is not big, but there are piles of bones. There is no real exit in the surroundings. There is only a half-man-high hole like a robber's cave that connects to the outside.
I originally thought that Li Dabao would take me to crawl into the cave entrance, but I never thought that he actually sat down directly and asked me to sit down too, obviously because he had something to say to me.
After I sat down, I asked Li Dabao what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd?
Li Dabao replied: "Actually, meeting you is an accident, but more importantly, I don't want to act with you guys. Do you know why?"
Isn't this nonsense?
If I knew, why would I wait for you to tell me?
Li Dabao seemed to be trying to show off to me. He waited for a while and then slowly said: "Well, I don't know your name yet, but you already know my name?"
"Chen Xu!" I replied, giving Li Dabao a rollicking look.
"Chen Xu, Chen Xu..."
Li Dabao muttered to himself twice in a row and then nodded: "Okay, I understand, I will tell you something next, but you have to be mentally prepared and don't be scared to death, otherwise I won't be able to negotiate with them. Got the bargaining chips?”
"What do you mean?"
I looked at the meaning of Li Dabao's words. I seemed to have become a bargaining chip. Does that mean that I was kidnapped by Li Dabao now?
Li Dabao chuckled, scratched his head and said with a smile: "It can't be said to be a bargaining chip in negotiations, but at least someone needs to stand by me, otherwise the following things cannot proceed."
I asked Li Dabao what he meant.
Li Dabao waved his hand: "Don't worry, since I've sorted it out for you, I must have something very important to tell you."
"Besides, you can't be with those people anymore, even when we go out and enter the Underworld Palace, do you understand?"
"Why?" I blurted out, "Li Dabao, what do you want to do?"
But Li Dabao patted his chest without shame and said, "I am trying to save you. You guys are all weird and cruel, and more importantly, except for you, they are all abnormal."
"Even, even..."
Li Dabao said. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he stared at me and said something that made me jam on the spot.
He said: "There is someone in your team who is... not... a... person!"
When I heard this, I nodded in agreement.
After all, just like the old man with ghost hands, I wouldn’t dare to compliment him as a human being.
But Li Dabao repeatedly waved his hands to indicate that this was not the case.
Instead, he reiterated again: "You didn't understand what I meant. The old man you mentioned is indeed weird, but he is at least half a human. But one of the other three people is not a human. He is not a human, do you understand?"
I looked at the serious Li Dabao and said, "What? He's not a human, he's a ghost?"
Li Dabao shook his head and said it was not a ghost, but not a human being anyway.
Hearing this, I actually laughed angrily at Li Dabao.
What the hell?
Not a human, not a ghost, there's nothing wrong with it, right?
Seeing that I didn't believe it, Li Dabao quickly explained: "Everything I said is true, why don't you believe me?"
"I'm telling you, not only is one of them not a human, but this entire tomb shouldn't exist, do you understand?"
I looked at Li Dabao who was already a little frustrated and shook his head and said, "Are you stimulated by something? Are you crazy?"
"I was stimulated a little bit, but it was far from crazy."
"Hey, I said how could you curse someone?"
Li Dabao stared at his little eyes and said, "Let's put it another way. If you want to ask me anything, I will answer it, so that you can believe it."
Seeing that Li Dabao still looked serious, I nodded and said, "Why did you disappear suddenly just now?"
"This?"
When Li Dabao heard that this was what I asked, he immediately showed a proud smile.
Then in front of me, he took out the silk book he was using to pad his butt...!
