"Yes, yes," the fat man nodded cooperatively, "but this is just a theoretical statement. Even if we can miraculously float to a certain sea on the ground... Who knows how long it will take us to float?
There doesn’t seem to be much food left.”
"The issue of food is very simple. If the water from the underground lake is poured down, won't the fish in it also have to come down..."
Ding Zeru said, thinking of "The Country of Mysteries".
He really felt that if it really drifted underground like this, it might end up floating into the sea.
‘If it’s linked to “The Kingdom of Mysteries”…’
'Forget it, that damn place isn't fun.'
"Yes, but I'm afraid I'll have to eat it raw by then," the fat man nodded.
"It's good to eat some. You have to choose."
Just like that, the three of them were holding cigarettes in their mouths, smoking and talking nonsense.
unconsciously.
Shirley Yang and Hu Bayi walked out.
This place is so big, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang naturally heard what Ding Ze and the other three said.
At this moment, when he came out and saw that Ding Ze and the others were still talking nonsense, Hu Bayi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Floating along with the current will definitely lead to death. You don't even think about it.
How can you survive after being soaked in water for so many days?"
It was just nonsense, so Ding Ze didn't mind and asked directly, "How are you doing? Did you find anything?"
Shirley Yang shook her head gently, "It can't be said to be a discovery. It can only be said to be speculation at best."
"Tell me."
Shirley Yang has no ink marks, "Inside the stone chamber, there are many stone carvings on the walls in the corners."
"According to my speculation, those stone carvings record the most impressive things of a woman who was imprisoned here, so as to serve as a witness in the next life."
"The cause and effect should be like this..."
"Women with strange eyes, but who are not ghost mothers, will be imprisoned here. During the period of imprisonment, those women will have to carve the most profound memories of their lives on the wall. After that, they will be blinded and smeared with blood from their eyes.
The stone carvings he left behind will eventually be taken under the stone statues, tied to those stone pillars, and bitten to death by black-haired snakes..."
Bah bah bah bah.
Shirley Yang spoke for a while, then suddenly, her tone increased.
"The most important discovery is...in the corners of the wall, there are many pairs of cracked eyeball patterns..."
"I think those patterns are a curse left by those women because of their overwhelming hatred for all that..."
"This is purely speculation on my part, but I think it shouldn't be too wrong."
"Think about it, Evil Luohai City was obviously destroyed by a large-scale subsidence disaster..."
An analysis by Shirley Yang.
After listening.
Far-fetched?
Far-fetched.
Mysterious?
Quite mysterious.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but for a moment they didn't say anything.
After a while.
As usual, it was the fat man who spoke, "Miss Yang, what you said is too outrageous... Those women secretly carved out pairs of broken eyeballs, and then successfully destroyed the Evil Luo Sea City..."
"Why are they so awesome..."
When Shirley Yang heard this, her face darkened, "I said, this is just my speculation."
"Definitely," Fatty is not stupid. He knew that Shirley Yang was unhappy, so he didn't say much, "Anyway, those patterns won't help us get out of here..."
"I think it's better to get down to business."
The fat man suddenly said, "Come on, I have thought a lot just now. I think there are only a few ways we can go."
The fat man became serious and said, "First, find a way to climb up the cliff over there and climb into the holes dug by Di Guanyin."
"Second, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in the sky. Let's wait for the water from the underground lake to fill up and follow the water... It was a joke to say that we floated with the water before. But with the help of the water from the underground lake, we can stay away from here temporarily and then look for it.
The way out is really reliable."
The fat man said it all in one breath.
——
After listening.
Hu Bayi didn't refute, and thought about it seriously, "Fat man, what do you mean, let's go down the canyon? See if we can find a way out by luck?"
The fat man nodded, "If we have a way to get out of the holes dug by Di Guanyin, then of course it would be best. If not... we can only go down."
"What I'm thinking about is that although the underground lake above is indeed very big, no matter how big it is, there is a limit, and the water in the lake is also limited..."
"Then, looking at the size of the canyon below, it's impossible for those underground lakes to take us far. When the time comes, we'll think of ways to get out."
The fat man said this very seriously.
Hu Bayi was silent for a few seconds, "This method is really unreliable, but...if there is really no choice, this is indeed a choice. After all, no matter what, it is better than staying here and waiting to die.
"
"It's rare that Comrade Hu's thinking is no longer so rigid," Ding Ze joked with a smile when he heard this. When he was done, he didn't give Hu Bayi a chance to speak and said seriously, "Okay, the happy time is over.
Those snakes are coming soon!”
"Let's all go up and pray that the underground lake water will fill it up immediately!"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone's expressions changed.
Along the way, after spending so many days together, everyone present knew clearly that Ding Ze would be unruly and unruly in other matters, but not in this kind of matter.
So, the next second.
No need to talk nonsense, no ink, everyone quickly started to move.
Not long after.
Everyone moved to the terrace above the statue.
Time has arrived at this moment.
The dense crawling sounds below, getting closer and closer, were already extremely clear.
The underground lake water has still not arrived.
"Quickly, move the stone slabs together to block the entrance...it can only be blocked for a while," Ding Ze said decisively.
Death is close at hand.
Driven by the instinct of survival, everyone moved quickly.
In the blink of an eye, a stone block that had fallen from the wall was moved to cover the entrance.
I saw that the entrance was completely blocked...
Ding Ze took out his cigarettes, lit one, and took a deep breath. Then, he took a flashlight, walked to the edge, and looked down.
The stone statues are dozens of meters tall in total.
It was pitch black down below.
The flashlight light can only illuminate a little.
However, with his night eyes, Ding Ze could still roughly see that there were no snakes below. "It seems that under the leadership of the snake ancestors, all the snakes have entered the stone statue..."
As he said that, Ding Ze looked at the stone blocking the entrance, "The stone can probably block the entrance for ten or twenty minutes, which is actually enough time..."
"What's enough?" When Hu Bayi heard this, he had a bad premonition.
Ding Ze grinned, "We still have ropes...enough for us to go down."
Upon hearing this.
The fat man, who was already panicking about standing in such a place, immediately went crazy: "Fuck! Don't be kidding, it's so high, how about going down?"
