The Huai Shui God's Cave

Chapter 20

I was very surprised, but at this time it was important to get rid of the poison and save my life.I put the deformed Xuanyuan mirror close to the place where the corpse insect bites, a cool feeling came, Xuanyuan mirror burst into heat, I saw the red line on the arm gradually became lighter, after about five or six minutes, the red line was actually real disappeared.

I let out a long breath, and it seemed that my life was saved.Everyone was very happy, and Ma Chuchen laughed through his tears.I glanced at her, and felt more and more that she was really a very beautiful girl. This kind of feeling of rebirth as a human being is rare, and I felt that I suddenly became hypocritical.

Yang Xiaoxie said with lingering fear: "Since Wu You is healed, let's get out of here quickly, maybe there are more difficult traps and poisonous insects lurking here."

Ma Chuchen scolded him for crow's mouth.However, after the accident just now, I feel that it is really not suitable to stay here for a long time. At this time, I saw that the old Taoist Qingfeng was with us, and I didn't want to spend too much time with him for the time being. I thought, when I leave here, the first thing I do is to take him Go to the bureau and interrogate him, not afraid that he will not tell the truth.

We casually ate some compressed biscuits, drank a few sips of water, got up and prepared to leave the original grave.After the door of the tomb was closed, the murals on both sides of the tomb in front of me also disappeared, which once again confirmed that the appearance of the murals was related to the magnetic meteorite in the tomb.This tomb door seems to have played a role in isolating the magnetic field.

At this time, through the darkness in front of me, I raised my flashlight and suddenly saw a crystal clear water mist over the tomb passage not far away, like a crystal mirror suspended in the air.It is not very accurate to say that it is a mirror, because the crystal still exudes a kind of brilliance, and it is not clear what it looks like.

I was taken aback, and I shone the flashlight over like looking in a mirror. My face was projected in the crystal, emitting a ball of light, and then the whole face was distorted and deformed, becoming thinner and thinner, and finally turned into a line. The thread wound into a circle again, spinning continuously, like a pattern of Tai Chi, and finally fell into darkness.

The scene wasn't scary, but I still felt terrified by what I saw just now, as if my whole soul was being pulled out of my body. fell to the ground.

The professor asked me what was wrong. I picked up the flashlight and wanted to tell what I saw, but I was worried that I might have read it wrong. Speaking out caused panic. After thinking about it, I said to the professor, "I seem to see a mirror."

The professor took the flashlight and looked at it carefully.At this time, I saw the crystal mirror again, and I believe they all saw it too, because everyone's faces changed.Yang Xiaoxie said in horror: "There is indeed a mirror, and there are still people in it."

I widened my eyes carefully, and sure enough, there were seven figures in the mirror. Since their backs were facing us, they couldn't be seen clearly for a while.

Yang Xiaoxie said: "Could it be that another group of people has also entered this ancient tomb, let's make a company with them."

The professor said: "I haven't heard that there are other archaeologists to participate! If there are other people, they may come to rob the tomb. We should be careful."

I took a closer look, and found that not only the number of people in the team was the same as ours, but also the clothes were very similar. There was also a person in the same yellow firefighting suit as Yang Xiaoxie, and there was also a man with a weapon similar to King Yu. Young man, and a very wretched figure in Tsing Yi followed behind, very similar to Qingfeng Old Daoist!

I slapped my forehead and suddenly understood: Isn't that team of us ourselves?It's just because they were all facing forward, I only saw their backs, and there was a distance and the light was dark, so I didn't recognize them for a while.

I told everyone about my discovery, and everyone suddenly realized it at the same time.Lin Xiaowei said: "It may be that the air in the entire tomb passage has not circulated for a long time, and the water vapor in some places accumulates together when the air flows suddenly, forming a water mist mirror."

He followed the professor's archaeology, saw a lot, and had a lot of experience. The results he concluded were more reasonable and convincing.

I think it is also possible, but I suddenly thought of a question: When we look in the mirror, we see the front of ourselves, but this water mist mirror, how can we see the back?

When I expressed my doubts, everyone felt very strange.Yang Xiaoxie said nervously: "It looks weird, it can't be the ghost of King Chu Xiang!"

The professor shook his head and said, "Probably not, this is probably a mirror image, but this mirror image is so strange, I still can't figure out how it is formed!"

I thought about it and said, "Maybe it's caused by a kind of refraction of light, copying our image there. However, the scene here is too weird, let's leave first."

We continued to move forward. I used a flashlight to shine on the crystal mirror from time to time while walking. I didn’t feel it at first. After walking about 500 meters, I suddenly felt that the crystal mirror hanging in the air in front of me was also raised. The figure is still clearly visible, and we are indeed moving forward with our backs to ourselves!
Inexplicable unease surged in my heart. I felt that things must not be that simple, but no matter what, we have to go out quickly.

When we got to the bottom of the mirror, it had already risen very high. I took a closer look with my flashlight. It turned out that the suspended and straight mirror was actually a horizontal plane at this time, as if a side was installed on the top of the tomb passage. Mirror.As we move, it moves!
The top of the tomb passage is still pitch black, and I don't know how high it is.The mirror image was suspended there, surrounded by a cloud of mist, which gave me an unfathomable feeling, as if its height exceeded the top of the tomb passage!

I was very confused, and the professor also felt puzzled. He turned around and asked Lin Xiaowei to carefully record the position and shape of the mirror image. When he comes back next time, he should bring relevant equipment and carefully observe the reasons for the mirror image formation.

Yang Xiaoxie and Qingfeng Laodao kept urging to move forward quickly, so we had no choice but to move forward quickly.

It took a really long time to go this time. I feel that it has been nearly twice as long as when I came here, and it has not yet come to an end.Even Yang Xiaoxie yelled: "Did I go wrong? Why does it feel like a century has passed!"

I thought about it, there should be nothing wrong, this is a corridor, and there are no hidden doors or side passages on both sides.

Later, Tang Mei said: "It's here!"

I found that the flashlight was shining on a stone door, and it was the end, but I quickly discovered something that surprised me: this stone door looked very familiar, there was a lamp figurine on each side of the wall, and there was a lamp on the door. Eight bird characters!

Several of us saw it, and everyone's face turned livid.Because this stone door is the door of the tomb from which we just escaped!

Yang Xiaoxie's lips turned white, and he said, "How could this happen? We were clearly walking outside, but why did we come back? Wu You, you couldn't be blind and brought us back, right?"

I couldn't laugh or cry, and my scalp was numb at the same time.This corridor is very straight, and it is obvious to all along the way. We are indeed walking outside, and there are no branches or other tombs in the middle. How come we walked back?
The professor said: "Could it be that there are two doors in the antechamber, and we passed through one of the main tombs, and now when we return from the main tomb to the antechamber, we come to the other door?"

I shook my head and rejected this statement, because this corridor is very straight, and the two sections were originally the only door connecting the front hall and the main tomb at the back.

Ma Chuchen thought for a while, then said with a pale face, "If we didn't see the wrong way, and didn't turn back from the middle, then there is only one possibility..."

She said tremblingly, "It's just a ghost hitting the wall!"

Her words made us all feel cold, but she quickly shook her head and murmured: "I looked with my yin and yang eyes, and there is no breath or shadow of ghosts!"

The so-called ghost hitting the wall means that when walking at night or in the countryside, you can't tell the direction, have a fuzzy self-perception, and don't know where to go, so you keep turning in circles, which is actually a kind of hazy state of human consciousness.There is a saying that the eyes are confused by ghosts, and you can't see the direction clearly, so you always circle in one place, or lose your sense of direction, and turn back unknowingly.

Her words stunned me for a moment, and I couldn't help frowning.Regarding ghosts hitting the wall, I don't really believe in ghosts.The so-called ghosts come from the fear in the heart, or attribute many visual errors or phenomena that cannot be explained by one's current knowledge to ghosts.

Thinking of this, I said: "If you want to know whether we have taken the wrong fork in the road, or whether it is a visual error, or if it is really a ghost hitting the wall, then go again and see!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, so the group turned around and walked back quickly. This time, they walked faster. I also noticed that the suspended crystal mirror above the corridor was the same as when it first appeared, and it could still be seen from various positions and distances. The shadow behind us did not show any other changes.

The appearance of this crystal mirror was unimaginable and weird. I tried my best not to look at it or think too much about it. I just hoped to get out of here as soon as possible.At the same time, I also noticed that in every corner and edge along the way, the corridor is indeed straight, and there are no forks or hidden doors. It seems that there is no problem.

My heart is cold again, the more I look at the problem that is not a problem, it will often be a big problem.If we can find some clues and clues on the road, we may find flaws and breakthroughs from them.However, nothing was found. This can only explain a problem, not that the problem is wrong, but ourselves.

Fantasies and wishes are often beautiful, but reality is often cruel.When I saw the familiar stone gate under the flashlight again, I knew that none of the gods heard my call!
Yang Xiaoxie was about to cry. He said: "What the hell is going on? I'm sure we didn't go the wrong way. How could we come back again? It's really a ghost hitting a wall. Sister Ma, don't you know how to exorcise ghosts?" Please God? Get rid of it quickly!" He looked at Ma Chuchen pitifully with pleading eyes.Ma Chuchen gave him a blank look, didn't speak, but looked at me!
I think the mood of the rest of the people is not much better. Everyone's face is ashen, because of nervousness and fear, they all fell silent at this time.

I cleared my throat and said, "Everyone. I don't believe in ghosts hitting walls. It's just a superstition. I believe it's just a phenomenon that modern science can't explain. Since ancient times, evil can prevail. Even if it's true It’s a ghost, I believe we can also intimidate it and defeat it in terms of momentum.” In fact, I am very uncertain, so I just want to comfort everyone, at least we can’t be intimidated by courage, otherwise what Have the courage to go out?
But Yang Xiaoxie didn't know good from bad, so he said aggrievedly: "We can all be counted as righteous people, but this Qingfeng old man can't be counted. He even snatched things from the mouths of ancient corpses, and the evil wind has invaded long ago. Said Maybe we are in trouble because he stole the tomb owner's beloved thing, and the ghost won't let him go, dragging us down so we can't get out. In my opinion, it's better to kill him and sacrifice to the tomb owner."

Master Qingfeng was taken aback, stepped back warily, and looked at us in panic.I waved my hand to tell Yang Xiaoxie to stop talking nonsense. At this time, infighting will definitely only make things worse.

When he was at a loss, Tang Mei spoke, and he said lightly: "It's not the time to die, we should calm down and stay awake, maybe it's just a small problem that hasn't been figured out. Many organs and blindfolds seem very Weird and magical, it’s actually quite simple to put it bluntly.”

After what he said, I suddenly lifted my spirits, because I remembered a word in his words: blindfold.
