This is definitely a message that left my head to me. What did he want me to be careful about?
Something big must have gone wrong while I was away!
I was thinking quickly in my mind, and I couldn't figure out what my head hit, and I was walking in such a hurry.
Although it is just one line of words, I choose to believe that this is the trust between us.
I sat blankly, waiting for nightfall.
Late at night, I carried my bag and headlamp and walked alone to the river.
In fact, we cannot call it a small river. This river is not small. It is connected to the Dulong River, and the source of the Dulong River is at the foot of the Snow Mountain. It can be said that it does not dry all year round.
The sound of water was rushing, so I walked along the river bank, hoping to meet the leader and the others.
"Then...what is that?"
As I was walking, I raised my flashlight and suddenly I saw something floating on the river in the distance, like a box?
The rushing river was drawing the thing closer and closer.
I took a closer look and saw that it was a rotten coffin floating in the water!
Before I had time to react, I saw two pale human hands sticking out from the rotten coffin, like zombies!
Seeing this, I was so scared that I took two steps back.
Immediately, the two men grabbed the sides of the coffin and slowly sat up...
"Fish...fish...Brother Yu!"
I never dreamed that it would be Brother Yu who sat up from the rotten coffin!
The coffin was carried downstream by the water.
Brother Yu looked anxious and waved to me: "Yunfeng! Hurry! Sit up quickly!"
As soon as I gritted my teeth, I didn't have time to think too much and swam over in the flowing water. Brother Yu pulled me into the coffin.
After lying in, the first thing Brother Yu did was to immediately turn off my headlamp.
In the dark night, this rotten coffin was washed by the river and drifted with the current.
Inside the coffin, we were facing each other, and through the thin moonlight, we could barely see the outline of each other's faces.
River water kept splashing in.
My upper body was soaked, and I gasped nervously and asked, "What's going on, Brother Yu! Where's the head!"
Brother Yu's tone was a little angry.
"Yunfeng, why are you back so late! Three whole days late! If it weren't for waiting for you, we would have left long ago!"
"Brother Yu, I don't want to either! Something happened to me and I was delayed!"
"How about the tasks assigned to me? Have you completed them all?"
I said don't worry, it's done.
Brother Yu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "That's good. I admire the good fortune teller. Otherwise, everything we have worked so hard for will have to be taken away by others."
I didn't understand, so I asked what was going on? Who wanted to steal our things?
At this time, the coffin floating in the river hit a stone and turned a corner. A large amount of river water poured in, just like riding a boat.
Brother Yu asked me to sit up and lie down next to the coffin to watch.
He wouldn't let me turn on the light.
All I could see was that the river bank was so dark that I couldn't even see my fingers. I couldn't see anything.
Brother Yu said with a cold face: "Don't worry, you will see them soon."
After floating along the river for a few more minutes, I suddenly saw a faint light on the other side of the river. Someone must be camping.
"Isn't that our camp?"
Brother Yu shook his head and whispered with a cold face: "No, it's another group of tomb robbers who suddenly appeared. Yunfeng. If Master Zhe hadn't been vigilant at night, you would have only found our bodies when you came back."
"There is no signal in the mountains, so we can't contact you. We have to pass by this group's camp to pick you up, so we thought about it a lot and decided to take the water route."
"This group of people appeared on the night of the fourth day after you left. They have two purposes. They are to monopolize the undiscovered tombs at the ruins. They are also to rob the things we have excavated and kill people."
"Black eat black!"
I couldn't help but said angrily: "Who the hell is it! I don't want to live anymore!"
This place is inaccessible. We worked hard for nearly a year to find it! Now this group of people appeared out of thin air. They didn’t have a parchment, how did they find it!
Brother Yu whispered: "You still need to ask? Yunfeng, if you think about it, you should know who revealed the information to them."
I hesitated for a moment, but I already had the answer in my mind.
Is this the back-up plan for the July Climb?
He couldn't defeat us, so he was chased all over the forest by Zhewu. As a result, the news spread behind his back, and our colleagues were found to kill themselves and kill each other.
No...that's not entirely the case.
I remembered the Western Han Dynasty tomb in the cave before, and the strange brick wall... I suspected that it was because I was not fooled at the time, and Qiyue Climbing was eager to find the things in the tomb behind the wall.
So another group of tomb robbers was brought in.
But these are all my conjectures, and I won’t know for sure until I see the clues.
Under the cover of darkness, the coffin floated down the river past the group's camp without being discovered.
