Indiana Jones

Chapter 515 Going Deeper (04)

What is the last hope?Is it the determination to leave here?Or is it a fluke fantasy?Si Xuanyi didn't know how to deal with the predicament in front of him, because he had basically tried all the methods, but they were useless when facing this place. It seems ordinary, but the boundless darkness makes them helpless. In fact, their biggest enemy is not the criss-crossing stone beams under their feet, but this can't dispel the darkness at all. Under the circumstances, they have no way to distinguish the north, south, east, and west at all, and they have no way to find the right direction.

The four of them thought of several other ways, but they all failed after trying. Not to mention finding the edge of the cave, they couldn't even determine the direction. They even found themselves turning in circles a few times.

"How many times have we come back here?" Zhao Chenggong said dejectedly, looking at the blood under his feet, "I didn't refer to it before, and I didn't find it. Now it seems that we have been wandering around in a certain range."

"These are the powerful features of this place's setting. It makes us unknowingly go back and forth, so that we still can't find the right direction in the end." Si Xuanyi is also at a loss for this. It can be said that they have thought of every possible solution. , Tried everything that could be tried, but in the end it still didn't change the predicament in front of them. After trying again and again and failing again and again, their state was slowly approaching the verge of despair.

"Someone...turn off the light, be quiet." Ye Feng whispered suddenly.

Several people followed suit immediately. In fact, they really didn't find anything wrong in the dark, let alone any signs of someone appearing, but they believed in Ye Feng's judgment, this guy was absolutely trustworthy.

All four of them lay on the stone beam. The most terrible thing about this place was that there was no shelter to hide from. In the darkness, they couldn't hear other sounds except their own breathing.

Even though they knew that their companions were by their side, they still felt abandoned by the world in such a dark environment, as if they were the only ones left here.

There was a dead silence all around, they couldn't see or hear, they couldn't even feel the change of time, as if everything was frozen at this moment, and they couldn't even feel their own existence.

I don't know how long it took, but they vaguely saw a little light in the distance. To be precise, it should be a very blurred spot of light. They didn't know if it was their own illusion. They stared but couldn't see clearly, and when they moved their eyes away, they found that the thing seemed to be real again, but they couldn't hear any sound except for the vague light point.

A few people dare not make any movement, who knows if there is someone on the other side looking for a way like them?But it's better not to reveal your position until you're not sure if it's one of your own.

Zhao Chenggong looked a little impatient. He really wanted to shoot there to see the reaction there, but he also knew that he couldn't do that, so he could only wait patiently, and he didn't know if it passed. After a while, the spot of light seemed to be bigger than before, and it was certain that it was the light from some kind of light source. The first thing they thought was a flashlight, as torches would not emit such light, but the light still seemed hazy. , like being covered with a thin layer of veil, it doesn't look very real.

Si Xuanyi slowly pointed the gun at that side, judging by the size of the light, it should not be too far away, but why couldn't they hear the sound?Could it be the eyes of some kind of beast?Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder. There is basically no chance of surviving when encountering a beast in this kind of place. There is a bottomless abyss under his feet, and he will fall if he is not careful, let alone fighting the beast.

At this moment, they heard a faint sound, which seemed to be far away, like a whistle, and it seemed to be the first sound of something. It was very vague, and it was impossible to tell what the sound was.

"It's... Yin Lu... Brother Yin Lu, I'm here." Xiao Lu almost jumped up in surprise.

"Yin Lu..." Si Xuanyi was taken aback by this girl. He didn't understand how this girl judged, but he didn't have time to ask so many questions at this time. This girl had already exposed their positions. When you pull it back, you are ready to defend against emergencies that may arise at any time.

"Girl, you can't do this. Do you know what's on the other side?" Zhao Chenggong was so frightened by Xiaolu that he yelled before he understood the situation.

"It's me..." Someone really spoke over there, and it really was Yin Lu's voice.

"Is it just you?" Si Xuanyi snatched Xiaolu's flashlight and turned it off. He didn't intend to reveal his location until he confirmed it was safe.

"I'll pick you up..." Yin Lu's voice was not far away.

"How do you know we're here?" Si Xuanyi asked again.

"Mr. Woodcutter said that you will definitely come." While speaking, Yin Lu was not far away from them, and they could already see the flashlight clearly.

After he came over, Si Xuanyi was relieved. As expected, Yin Lu was the only one.

"Mr. Woodcutter guessed right, you really got lost here." Yin Lu patted Xiaolu's head affectionately.

"Why didn't the old man leave a mark for us?" Zhao Chenggong asked very dissatisfied.

"It's kept..." Yin Lu said, "but the first part is missing. I went to check it just now, and it was erased."

"It was wiped off?" Si Xuanyi felt very surprised.

"After us and before you, there should be a group of little devils. They may have done it. They touched that place accurately. If they didn't follow these marks, it would not be so easy." Yin Lu said.

"Then it should all be erased, right? Only the first part?" Zhao Chenggong didn't quite believe it. After all, the marks are not so easy for outsiders to see. He believed that those little devils passed by unintentionally. It wasn't intentional, but it didn't explain how those little devils got in there.

"It's enough to erase the beginning part." Ye Feng said, "As long as we go in the wrong direction at the beginning, it is basically impossible to go back to the road they marked before."

"Are you injured?" Si Xuanyi saw blood on Yin Lu's body.

"Injured?" Xiaolu immediately went to look at his back, and sure enough there were more bloodstains on his back.

"We fought two battles with the little ghost. In order to maximize our strengths and avoid weaknesses, we adopted a sneak attack and melee combat, but the effect was not satisfactory. We paid a high price." Yin Lu said, "But it's okay, we killed a lot of devils."

"Can you go? Take us there immediately if you can. The situation over there seems to be very complicated, and you are facing a lot of trouble, right?" Si Xuanyi seemed to realize something.

"That's right!" Yin Lu smiled reluctantly, "The situation inside is worse than we expected, and the number of devils is also greater than we expected. Although we have the advantage in terms of numbers, we are at a disadvantage in terms of combat capabilities and equipment." Absolute disadvantage, this is very troublesome, after a few battles we have achieved some results, but it can't completely solve the substantive problem, I didn't expect that there are only so few of you."

"Are you here for support?" Si Xuanyi immediately understood what she meant.

"Indeed, our situation inside is not optimistic." Yin Lu said in that tone, while gesturing for everyone to follow him, "Mr. Woodcutter also felt that we would have a hard time if we continued, so he asked me to find You guys, I hope you bring more people in."

"This is all our current combat power." Si Xuanyi said rather helplessly, "The rest of the people are only Liu Xiaotian. They are basically the wounded, and it is impossible to come in to help. Maybe there are brothers." Scattered in the woods outside, but I can't find them now."

Yin Lu introduced the situation inside. They still have about 30 people, and the number of Japanese troops is probably less than twenty, but Si Xuanyi is very aware of the gap in strength between the two sides. The Japanese army is well-equipped, while Yin Lu and the others are basically swordsmen. Spears, there are only a dozen or so people who can figure out how to use the gun. These people’s guns are good if they don’t hit themselves. It can play the biggest role, so it is estimated that only Li Siming and a few people can get thousands of confrontations with the enemy. As for these natives, they will engage in ambushes and close-up sneak attacks at most, but they have to pay a considerable price every time to get them. Achieve certain results.

Before Si Xuanyi and the others, about a dozen devils got into the cave, and the number of devils increased, but Yin Lu and the others lacked backup, so the woodcutter called him out to seek help, and the woodcutter also guessed that Si Xuanyi and the others might He would follow in, and it would be more likely to get lost in this ghostly place. Fortunately, the old man was thoughtful enough, otherwise Si Xuanyi and the others might find it difficult to leave this place.

Originally, Si Xuanyi couldn't deviate too far even if they couldn't find the right direction, but Yin Lu said that they had strayed far from the correct route and were advancing little by little into the depths of the cave. He also said that the cave would eventually No one knows where it will lead to. It is said that it will eventually return to nothingness, and there will never be an end to it. If he comes later, he may never find them again, because he is already close to his known range. In the fringe area, he couldn't guarantee whether he could come back any further.

"This was built by your ancestors? How long did it take? Is there any record?" Zhao Chenggong thought it was incredible.

"No one knows who repaired this place, and we haven't mentioned it in our records, but only mentioned the method of passing here, but oral legends say that this place existed in ancient times." Yin Lu said.

"It won't be that long, right?" Zhao Chenggong didn't believe it.

"It's just a legend. If it wasn't for them, how could Xiu know the origin of this place? Their ancestors also came to this place to take refuge later." Si Xuanyi said.

"That's right..." Yin Lu did not deny this, "When our ancestors came here, this place already existed."

"Isn't the stone city outside where your clansmen used to live?" Ye Feng asked.

"We don't have relevant official records. It is possible that the older generation has said that we experienced a catastrophe before and moved away from the previous residential area, but that was a long time ago, but I think our ancient The ancestors should not be able to build such a huge building complex, even if they lived here, it should have existed before coming here." Yin Lu said, "The ancestors destroyed a lot of buildings after the disaster they experienced. There are materials and historical records, so we have no way to verify these, but there are indeed traces of our ancestors' activities here. I don't know whether they were left by living here or those who brought them in for sacrifices. It's verified."

"What is hidden here? You should know, or your patriarch should also say, since he can come in and bring our people, it means that he no longer cares about this secret being known by outsiders, so now We also want to know." Si Xuanyi said.

Yin Lu didn't answer immediately, but was silent for a long time before speaking: "I don't know very well, but probably the patriarch said something, this place hides a huge magic circle, it is said that through some kind of sacrificial ceremony, the undead can be summoned Army."

"It's just using ghosts to help people fight." Zhao Chenggong's understanding is simple and straightforward.

"You can say that, but it doesn't seem that simple." Yin Lu said, "It seems that some kind of contract is used, of course I don't understand, it's just a legend, but judging from the anxious behavior of the patriarch, it doesn't seem to be It's as simple as a legend."

"If you dare to say that the little devil came here for this, I will really kill you... Isn't this too fucking ridiculous? Can you find some reliable reasons." Zhao Chenggong thinks this is too ridiculous talked about.

"How do I know why the little devil came?" Yin Lu was a little embarrassed, "If you want to know their real purpose, you have to ask them yourself, but I don't think I can find a more suitable reason than this, because I am from here, According to the legend, we have the elixir of immortality here. This is a fairyland on earth, a paradise. Do you think that the little devil came here for this? So I think the theory of the magic circle is relatively reliable. Don’t you mean the little devil? The battle is about to be defeated, so it is understandable that they want to use this method to reverse the situation when they have nothing to do? Maybe they are all lunatics, but it is normal for people to go crazy under certain extreme circumstances, believing in some illusory things It's also normal, so I don't know the specific reason, but this can be used as a reference."

"Even if it is used as a reference, I don't think he is worth much." Si Xuanyi also thinks this statement is too outrageous, "Or that sentence, the theory of ghosts and gods is too illusory. Although he has seen it several times, he is not sure. At that time, did I really see a ghost or my own illusion.”

　The update in these two days is not timely, I apologize to everyone, and the follow-up will return to normal. This book is almost finished. Although the results are not satisfactory, I will insist on finishing it. In addition, the new book has been brewing for a long time, and it has basically taken shape. The story is still Special military themes, no lewdness, no stallions, no drama, no dog blood, really fighting, bloody army soul, iron-blooded man, will connect "Dragon Yan", "Full-time Agent", and "Mercenary" together, All the protagonists will return, so please look forward to it.
