Chapter 50 The Underworld Pig Face (10)

In order to prevent accidents, Brother Wei didn't let us go down with him, but he made it clear that he would go down first to check the situation, and then call us if there is no problem.

The light of the fire gradually merged into the dark mine shaft. The well was quite deep. At the beginning, it was still lit by the fire, and Wei Ge's figure could be seen clearly. Later, the figure could not be seen clearly, and only a dim yellow light could be seen. gosh.

The halo looked extraordinarily weak in the darkness, as if it would be swallowed up at any moment, and the people watching it always felt something was wrong.

After a while, Brother Wei seemed to have come to an end. The light source paused in the darkness, then suddenly became smaller and smaller, and then suddenly disappeared!
what happened!

The three of us were up there, nervously waiting for Brother Wei to report back on the situation. As soon as the fire went out, we were really shocked. At this moment, I could imagine the scene where Brother Wei was attacked by a snake demon. I couldn’t help but He shouted at the mouth of the well: "Brother Wei! What's going on! How are you!"

No one responded to the first call. When the second call was made, the flames that had suddenly disappeared reappeared. Immediately afterwards, Brother Wei shouted at us from below: "No danger, come down!"

Xiao You breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "Brother Wei is too scary."

The doctor climbed onto the ladder and said, "Go down first, then watch your step."

In other words, he often plays outdoors. The doctor is quite flexible, just like a monkey.

I followed the second, Xiaoyou was the third, and the three went down one by one.

The temperature seems to get lower the further you go down, and the air looks extremely humid and cold.

When I got to the bottom of the well, there was no stagnant water as I imagined, but it was very dry, and the soil on the ground was very solid, as if it had been rammed.

The light of a single torch is limited, so the three of us took out new torches one after another and put them to Brother Wei to light them.

After the four torches were lit at the same time, the visible range instantly increased. Only then did I realize that there was another world at the bottom of the well. There was a huge cave below, and the front and back could not be seen.

Where we are, the head of the well is above our head, but if we walk a few steps to the side and get out of the range of the well head, the top of our head is a rock layer.

Xiao You immediately understood, and said, "The fire suddenly disappeared just now, because Brother Wei, you walked away, right?"

Brother Wei was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and said, "I heard your cries and came back quickly. I grew up in this area, but I never thought that there would be such a place under this well."

The surroundings are pitch black, and you can't see the end, and you don't know how big the cave is, and you don't know where the snake demon is.

"This place is so dark, is the snake demon hiding nearby? What should we do now?"

I said: "We are carrying torches, the snake demon dare not come up rashly, the four of us should not separate, first explore the situation of this place first." Holding a torch, he began to explore the cave under the mine.

In my impression, mines are often dirty and dark, because most of us usually see coal mines.

But this cave is very strange. The soil on the ground is reddish, and there is no cinder-like thing. It doesn't seem to be a coal mine.

So, what kind of mine is this?

Judging from the iron ladder at the mouth of the well, this place should be a modern product. Since it is modern, why didn't Brother Wei know about it?
Reminiscent of the situation of the old bachelor Wei not letting Brother Wei approach, and reminiscent of the situation not long ago when the patriarch suddenly gave up halfway through the investigation, I realized that this mine may be hiding some secrets.

This secret may only be known to the old bachelor Wei and the elders of the patriarch's generation, and they obviously do not intend to let future generations know what happened here.

Now, we are equivalent to breaking into the taboo of Huangquan Village.

We walked around the cave for more than half a circle, but we didn't find any clues. The only thing we found was that there were many huge bamboo baskets piled up near the west side of the cave.

If I'm not mistaken, this kind of bamboo basket should be used to transport the minerals mined in the mine, but now, they are all abandoned in this place, and many of them have already dried up naturally.

When they were about to walk a full circle, an iron door suddenly appeared on the cave wall in front of them.

It was one of those old-fashioned iron bars, rusty and half-open, and unlocked.

Behind the iron gate is a long tunnel, which is dark and extends to nowhere.

This should be a mine.

Xiaoyou stretched his neck to look, and said, "The snake demon doesn't seem to be in this cave, is it behind this passage?"

The doctor immediately said yes, and pointed to a small area behind the iron gate, motioning for us to look.

His powers of observation are quite keen. If he hadn't pointed it out, we probably wouldn't have noticed it at all. We could only see some bloodstains on the ground behind the iron gate.

There was not much blood, it was obviously dripping on the ground, and the color still looked fresh.

Either it belonged to that pregnant woman, Crazy Liu, or it belonged to the Snake Demon.

But the former is more likely.

When the doctor saw the blood, he had an occupational disease. Without saying a word, he walked into the tunnel first, holding a torch in one hand and a hatchet in the other, arrogantly and arrogantly, as he walked, he said: "Madman Liu is in danger. We need to speed up."

Xiao You hurriedly followed and said, "It's better to follow the doctor to feel safe."

I choked, and followed, saying: "You white-eyed wolf, will you feel insecure after following me? Have you forgotten all about my heroic appearance before?"

Xiao You said: "I just remember that you were covering your crotch just now, and you fell down and burst into tears. It's too shameful."

"Hiss...how heartless are you girl? Any man would cry about this kind of thing. Those are physical tears. If you don't believe me, ask the doctor."

The doctor was very face-saving. Hearing this, he gave an 'hmm' and continued to lead the way.

Only then did Xiaoyou half-believe and half-believe that I was a 'real man'.

These days, it's really not easy to be a real man. Why can women cry when they are in pain, but we men are not allowed to cry when our lives are about to be cut off?Could it be that we men have evolved lacrimal glands for display!
While complaining, a group of four of us walked forward in a single file. Four shining torches illuminated the front and rear ends very brightly. The cold underground really has a gloomy feeling.

"Ah! This place is so cold!" Xiao You suddenly sneezed and complained.

In fact, I also have this feeling. It seems that the further I go, the lower the temperature. I don't know why.

I said, "Shall I take off my coat for you?"

Xiaoyou nodded immediately: "Okay, okay."

I said, "It's a beautiful idea."

"Xu Kaiyang, you have changed. Not long ago you were handsome, brave and gentleman, but now you have become the stranger I am most familiar with."

I just wanted her to stop reading the lyrics, but at this moment, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the shadow on the wall, which seemed to move.

We were moving, and the firelight was dancing, so the shadow moved along with it, and there was nothing strange about it, but just now, the shadow that belonged to me caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye, but suddenly opened its hand, as if it was about to pounce on someone.

But in fact, when teasing Xiaoyou, my hand didn't move.

My heart skipped a beat, and I felt a little hairy.

He couldn't help turning his head abruptly, staring at his own shadow.
