treacherous world

The reason why the flames flickered was because something was floating on the ceiling of the cave... That thing was light and floating, similar to white silk, but it seemed to be old, so it was already dilapidated.

So at first glance, Bai Yutang and the others looked as if there were a lot of cotton wool hanging on the ceiling of the cave, and the shaking of these things caused shadows to sway in the firelight on the ground.

"What is that?" The fourth son felt a little scary, and got closer to Xiao Liang, but Zhan Zhao couldn't see it, so he asked Bai Yutang, "What is it?"

"Like white silk, it has become a little yellow and a little torn after a long time.

"White silk?" Zhan Zhao frowned, "Is it hanging on the ceiling of the cave? It's wavy?"

"En." Bai Yutang nodded, seeing that Zhan Zhao's expression was a little off, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Oh... I heard from my mother that in ancient times, if a young lady from a noble family died unexpectedly and was buried, she should be buried with three times the white silk, otherwise she might be strangled to death by the white silk in the next life."

"Three times?" Xiao Liang didn't quite understand.

"It's three inches, three feet, three feet..." Bai Yutang raised his face, looked at the still lit ceiling of the cave, and saw that it stretched so far that it was almost impossible to see the edge.

"It seems to be [-] feet long here." Bai Yutang shook his head slightly, "Who would hang so many white silks on the ceiling of the cave...how did they get there?"

Everyone shook their heads, unable to understand why there was such a decoration. Could it be that this is really the tomb of a certain prince and noble family's princess?

"what!"

Everyone was wondering, when they saw the fourth son pointing to the distance... Bai Yutang looked down and saw a young figure running past in a hurry.

"Oh... so he didn't escape!" Xiao Liangzi saw that it was a little monkey, and just as he finished speaking, Bai Yutang flew down at a very fast speed.

Then, everyone heard a scream of a child.

Under the stairs, Bai Yutang grabbed the little monkey by the back collar.

The child kept screaming and struggling, Bai Yutang frowned and said in a low voice, "What are you afraid of, we just want to ask you a few questions."

The little monkey's struggle gradually weakened, and he looked back at Bai Yutang tremblingly.

Bai Yutang carefully looked at his face, and by the light of the fire, there was nothing wrong with the kid except that he was a little thinner. Of course, the strangest thing was the tail behind him.

At this time, Zhan Zhao and the others had already descended the long steps to Bai Yutang's side.

The fourth son poked his head out from Bai Yutang's side and looked at the little monkey, "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, so I just want to ask you some questions."

The little monkey stared at the fourth son for a long time, didn't speak but stopped struggling completely, and looked at Bai Yutang pitifully with his arms folded.

Bai Yutang naturally wouldn't grab him anymore. Seeing Bai Yutang let go, the little monkey ran away, but bumped into a soft mass and bounced back, and sat down on the ground. He looked up... and saw It was the stone that blocked his way.

The little monkey looked at the stone in horror, obviously not seeing that thing before.

"Little monkey." At this time, Zhan Zhao whispered, "Don't run away, we will leave after asking you a few questions.

The little monkey sat still, but looked at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang with distrust.

At this moment, Stone came up and sniffed him.

The little monkey stared at the stone, and the stone suddenly stuck out his tongue and licked his cheek twice.

"Hey." The little monkey was scared at first, but then it seemed to feel itchy, so he laughed.

Then the stone rubbed against him again, wagging its tail as if quite pleased.The expression on the little monkey's face also relaxed, and he rubbed the fur on the stone's back.

The fourth son felt that Xiao Liang was pushing him lightly, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Liang winking at him.

The fourth son understood, squatted down and said to the little monkey, "It's called Stone, it's two years old, isn't it cute?"

"... Shishi." The little monkey spoke, pinching Shishi's ears, "It's so cute."

Stone likes to be pinched by others, and it will be crisp when pinched, and he will play like a baby with the little monkey.

The little monkey made it laugh a few more times, and the little four started talking to him, "Little monkey, my name is little four, how old are you?"

As the two children approached each other, Bai Yutang began to look around... This crypt is quite open, with nothing around it, and judging from the width and the downward slope, part of it should have extended to Yishui bottom of the river.

Thinking of this, Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao subconsciously. Zhan Zhao seemed to feel that he was looking at him, so he stretched out his hand, pointed to his ear lightly, and signaled Bai Yutang—listen!

Bai Yutang listened attentively, and there seemed to be the sound of water flowing.

"Woooo~"

While listening carefully, there was a misty whimpering sound from the cave, it seemed that someone was humming in a low voice, and it seemed that someone was crying.

The fourth son was startled, and put his arms around Xiao Liang beside him, "Ghost?"

"no."

The little monkey said, "Xiaohong is singing."

"Xiaohong?" Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao didn't understand.

"You...you can't come here." The little monkey muttered, "What do you want to ask?"

Zhan Zhao squatted down, groped for the little monkey, put his hand on his shoulder and patted him lightly, "Little monkey, I want to ask you, when Master Liu died that day, why did you say the phrase 'Go to hell'?"

The little monkey seemed to have forgotten, blinked, "Is there?"

"Yes." Zhan Zhao nodded.

"Oh." The little monkey seemed indifferent, "He belongs to a bad guy, he cheats people all day long, and we often curse him."

"You? Why do you say he is a liar?"

"He said that the horse belly is a fairy, what does he know." The little monkey said quite disdainfully.

"Then you've seen it?" the fourth son asked curiously.

"I've seen it before!" the little monkey said triumphantly, "The Great Immortal Groomman is amazing!"

"How powerful?".

"It's so powerful that all the bad guys will die, so that those people don't dare to bully us!" The little monkey said seriously.

"Little monkey." Zhan Zhao asked him, "Can you be more specific?"

"Well, that's..."

"Children's words are innocent."

Just when Zhan Zhao and the others wanted to listen carefully to what the little monkey had to say, they heard an old voice from above the cave entrance, "Kid, don't believe anything you say."

"Grandma!" The little monkey yelled and ran up, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned slightly... They were about to ask, but they were interrupted.

Although they really wanted to find out what was going on in this crypt, and who the crying Xiaohong was, they still had to go back to the steps and go up.

At the same time, Bai Yutang seemed to hear a "crash", and he stopped. This sound was similar to the sound he heard in the pool behind the Mafu Temple...

"What's wrong?" Zhan Zhao asked him in a low voice.

"I seem to hear..."

"You heard me right." Zhan Zhao said without waiting for him to speak, "I heard it too."

Bai Yutang sighed——Sure enough!

"Cat...I have an idea." Bai Yutang whispered.

"No." Zhan Zhao shook his head.

"Come back soon, stabilize them first." As he said that, Bai Yutang flickered and turned back.

When Shi Shi saw Bai Yutang run away, he followed him.

Zhan Zhao was in a hurry, really angry that he couldn't see.

The fourth son reached out and tugged at the hem of his clothes, "Meow, it doesn't matter, nothing will happen if you are so powerful and have stones following you."

"Guests, come up for a cup of tea?" At this time, the little monkey's grandma had already greeted him, poured the tea and waited.

Zhan Zhao had no choice but to hold Xiaosi's hand and lead Xiao Liang up the steps together, but he was absent-minded, he somehow thought of that dream, he really shouldn't have let Bai Yutang go alone.

But at this time, Bai Yutang had already entered the darkness in the distance. He didn't go anywhere else, but walked in the direction where the sound of water flow came from... Shi Shi followed him, sniffing the ground from time to time, watching Bai Yutang's actions.

Gradually, when he reached the depths of the dark crypt, Bai Yutang could hear the whimpering sound more clearly, and there was another step in front of him, descending, and under the step, he could already see swaying black water patterns... Underground river!

Vaguely, Bai Yutang saw something swimming in the water, similar to a big fish.

Bai Yutang walked forward, but felt that his trousers were being grabbed. Looking back, the stone bit his trousers and retreated...not letting him go.

Bai Yutang was puzzled, but he was not reckless, Shishi was spiritual and gifted, and he had some instincts for places like caves, so there must be a reason to stop him.

Bai Yutang stopped in his tracks and looked back at it, "What's wrong?"

"Squeak." Stone used his claws to push a stone in front of him towards the steps...

The stone rolled down the steps, only half way down, and fell into the mire... sunk in.

Bai Yutang frowned slightly, and squatted down to take a closer look, only to find that the steps were a disguise, usually steps, half of which were reflections, and the reflections were in the swamp and mud, not the water surface, if he stepped on it just now, he would sink into it.

"Huhu..." Shitou bared his teeth and yelled at the water pool in front of him twice, then grabbed the back of Bai Yutang's clothes and pulled him back desperately, as if to make him go back.

Bai Yutang hesitated for a moment, then suddenly heard the wind blowing in the back of his head, and suddenly lowered his body... There was a series of piercing cries, and a large group of bats flew overhead.

While squatting down, Bai Yutang also saw some strange scenes that he had never seen together before.

A swarm of bats had already flown by, Bai Yutang squatted down, but saw something floating in the water behind the swamp by the river... It looked like a human head, or the kind with long hair.

Bai Yutang looked carefully, and suddenly the head sank...and plunged into the water. After a wave of waves, a huge fish tail lifted out of the water and plunged into the water.

There was another series of familiar sounds of paddling water, and the sound gradually disappeared...

Bai Yutang also came back to his senses, human head, fish body... This time, he was absolutely right.

"Zhizhi." Shito grabbed Bai Yutang's sleeve this time and told him to go back.

As expected, Bai Yutang turned around, quickly left the cave with Shitou, went up the steps to the little monkey's house, and saw Zhan Zhao sitting at the table absent-mindedly.

Zhan Zhao didn't know what was wrong, he was in a trance just now, and he was relieved when he heard that Bai Yutang had returned, and let out a sigh of relief.

"Ha ha."

At this time, the little monkey's grandmother looked at Bai Yutang, "Your Excellency is really lucky. Those who used to be very curious and trespassed in the crypt were killed by the Fifth High School. If you really want to see it so much, let the little monkey take you next time." go.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were taken aback for a moment, they thought they were not allowed to see it, why are they so generous?

"Where is that big hole?" Xiao Liang asked.

"It's just a big underground tomb, it's been a long time ago." The old lady replied with a smile.

"Whose grave is it?"

"Hehe." The old woman patted the little monkey's head and asked in a low voice, "I only said it was a big tomb, but I never said it was a human's tomb!"
