We are already very familiar with this dark sea, and since there is no obstacle from the pony, we are very calm and relaxed along the way, and there is no longer the tension in the past.
So we quickly arrived at the hatch of the sunken ship. We opened the hatch and swam straight to the last cabin. During this period, the toxin of Cordyceps sinensis affected us again, but after experiencing it twice, we seemed to have become accustomed to it.
, that hallucination quickly disappeared.
The entrance to the dark layer was still open. When we were about to escape last time, we didn't even have time to close it. Old Man Mai waved and motioned for us to follow. It was still the narrow passage, and a group of us marched inside one by one.
Mai Lao took the lead, this time I came to the rear, and Jiao Ba was in front of me. When we quickly reached the wooden gate, Jiao Ba suddenly turned his head and quietly gestured to me with his left hand, "Follow me."
Me, never leave my sight.'
I don't know what he means, but I know it's definitely not a joke.
After opening the wooden door, we entered the mass grave full of corpses. As soon as we entered here, I felt uncomfortable all over. I always felt like the souls of the dead were shuttled back and forth around me.
As we swam all the way to the innermost part, the gate of the forbidden area became clearer and clearer. When we swam to the gate of the forbidden area, Mr. Mai stopped first. The gate was tightly closed. I still remember that the gate was closed last time.
I was caught at one point, but how could this big iron door close automatically for no reason?
I still looked around with the light first, but found nothing. Then Jiao Ba quickly marched to Mr. Mai, and the two of them were talking with each other and gesticulating.
What Jiao Ba probably meant was to tell him that once the gate to the forbidden area is opened, it can be closed at any time, but he doesn't know how long it will take to close, so people must be left outside the gate, and he
He also told Mr. Mai that out of the three coffins, only one contained a body and that he should follow him closely and not move arbitrarily.
Mr. Mai also agreed with his opinion. We briefly discussed the people left behind, and finally decided to let Shunzi and Li Xin stay outside. Of course they disagreed at first, especially Li Xin, who insisted on going with them.
, but Mai Lao had a firm opinion and did not allow anyone to refute it.
The two of us had no choice but to wait patiently at the door holding our breath. Then a few of us went to open the iron door. Accompanied by a harsh sound and a strong cold current, the gate of the forbidden area was once again blocked.
opened.
And the lighting in my hand was the same as last time. Suddenly it flickered again, but then it returned to normal in an instant. At this moment, I became nervous. Looking from the outside, it was still dark inside.
Dead silence.
Mai Lao and I looked at each other. He nodded, waved his hand, and swam in first. Jiao Ba and I and others hurriedly followed. This time we separated, to ensure safety.
, the few of us are closely connected all the way, and we can all notice each other.
It was still so cold in the forbidden area. It was so cold that all the blood in my body almost solidified. It was like an icehouse. Each of us was constantly moving our bodies until we got used to the surrounding environment.
I once again saw those gold jewels, shining brightly around the forbidden area. I knew these things were just my illusions, but they seemed to have some kind of magic power, always attracting us to move forward. I felt
This time the hallucination was more serious than before.
I shook my head vigorously. I must not let the magic power of Cordyceps affect my brain. Otherwise, even if I have a hundred lives, I will not be able to walk out alive.
I turned my head and glanced at the big man next to me, but I was suddenly surprised. There was nothing next to me. Where was the big man?
I quickly looked around with a light. Not far to my left, the big man was unknowingly swimming towards those fatal golden places. I instinctively wanted to shout to the person in front of me, but there was no way to shout under the deep water.
exit.
It suddenly occurred to me that I could use a light. I quickly turned off the light, then quickly turned it on, flashing it repeatedly. This trick really worked. After a few uses, Mr. Mai and the others stopped.
I didn't have time to explain anything, so I swam quickly to the left. When Mr. Mai and the others saw that I was moving, they quickly followed me. The big man was getting closer and closer to me, and just as he reached out to grab those golden ones
when.
I hurriedly took action, strangled his neck, and dragged him back. I thought he would struggle desperately, but he didn't. He was just like a dead corpse, motionless.
I released the hand that was holding his arm and turned his body over. Only then did I see that his eyes were dull and completely slanted, just like a person who was terminally ill and about to die.
I immediately grabbed his shoulders and shook his body vigorously, but he still didn't react at all and still looked at me blankly. What the hell is going on? Was he fine just now?
At this moment, Jiao Ba hurried over. He pinched the big man's respirator and cut off his oxygen. I was shocked at that time. I was trying to kill him, but it took a few seconds.
I saw the effect right after planting.
The big man fluttered twice and woke up immediately. Jiao Ba then let go of his hand, looked into his eyes and gestured to him, 'Are you okay? Follow closely.'
The big man nodded stupidly, but his purple complexion looked abnormal. I patted his shoulder and motioned for him to follow me closely.
As soon as Mr. Mai saw that nothing happened, he called us to leave quickly. The time was limited now, and the gate might be closed at any time, so we had to seize all the time. We swam towards the innermost part of the forbidden area.
Jiao Ba was leading the way this time. When he started to swim upstream little by little, I knew that we were about to arrive. With the help of several strong lights, the image of the coffin appeared in my sight little by little.
Soon, Jiao Ba stopped in front of the coffin. Mai Lao gestured to him and asked, 'Is this it?'
Jiao Ba nodded and gestured, 'It should be.'
Mr. Mai asked him again seriously and gestured very urgently, 'Are you sure?' His eyes were a little strange, he looked so calm even though he was obviously in a hurry.
Jiao Ba gestured, 'Don't worry, you can't make a mistake.'
Mr. Mai waved his hand, and a few of us scattered around, floating to the left and right of the coffin. The last time I came to the forbidden area, I hurriedly fled the scene before I had time to take a closer look.
This time I used a light to observe it carefully. This coffin was also dark and dark. When the light shone on it, the black color looked extra cautious. The size was almost exactly the same as the coffins in the previous shipwrecks of the Qing Dynasty.
There is no visible change in appearance at all. Since the previous female corpse in the coffin had a greater impact on me, I remember it very deeply. This coffin is complete and has not been opened. The nails are all intact on the coffin lid.
superior.
The only difference now is that it is suspended in the air, and the bottom of the coffin is supported by several bowl-sized pieces of wood. I didn’t expect that after hundreds of years, these pieces of wood would still not decay. This is really surprising.
I gained a lot of knowledge.
I reached out and touched the coffin lid. The coffin was very cold. A strong cold air instantly spread into my palms and went straight to my whole body. I quickly let go of my hand and recovered.
Mai Lao gestured to Jiao Ba and asked, 'Do you want to do it?'
Jiao Ba gestured, 'Do it.'
We first held the coffin with our hands. When I touched the coffin again, the cold air quickly spread to my arms. I had no choice but to grit my teeth and endure it.
We looked at each other, nodded, and then started to exert upward force at the same time. The coffin was really heavy, but with more people, we had more strength, and we quickly lifted the coffin.
Then we quickly dived under the coffin. Except for Mai Lao and Jiao Ba, each of us occupied a corner, just in time to hold the coffin firmly with our shoulders.
Jiao Ba stood in front and commanded, 'Follow me.'
But when we were about to set off, a loud noise came, and earth-shaking changes suddenly occurred in the forbidden area...
