Chapter 1183: There's a Cave
Wang Jinpeng also thought about kicking the body into the river, but Lin Ran stopped him.
"Isn't this harming the villagers?" Lin Ran pulled the body aside.
How to deal with it?I'll make a decision when I get back.
If only they could come back.
Seeing that there were casualties, morale was really low.
Even Wang Jinpeng no longer clamored to rush in and fight to the death with the Treasure Hunt Club.
Their clothes had been dried, and they finally felt better after putting on warm clothes.
Continuing to walk up the river, the river is still fast and the river channel becomes wider. It is not easy for them to walk along the bank. They have to hold on to the nearby trees to avoid stepping into the mud pit and falling directly.
It's not easy to reach your destination.
Lin Ran was holding the map in his hand just now. When the flash flood came, he had no time to react and the map was washed away.
Now I can only move forward with memory.
Although the river has become wider, the direction should not have changed. Just walk upstream along the river and you will reach the end point.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lin Ran and Wang Jinpeng started joking.
At this time, an atmosphere of silence will only make people physically exhausted faster, and morale must be boosted.
Fortunately, Wang Jinpeng is an optimist, and the panic just now passed quickly.
In order to avoid stepping on the trap, they had to slow down.
After another hour, Wang Jinpeng asked anxiously: "Brother Lin, how long until we arrive?"
Lin Ran calculated in his mind that they should have walked more than 20 kilometers now.
According to the map marks, we should have arrived.
But there were no mountains visible on both sides.
Could it be that because they were on a mountain, the location of the ancient tombs was relatively random?
Lin Ran felt that this possibility was relatively small, and it probably hadn't reached the end yet.
He said to everyone: "We should be there in two or three kilometers, just hold on."
Now everyone must know that they can reach the end without giving up halfway.
However, something he didn't expect happened.
As we walked further along the river, there was a fork.
To be more precise, the two rivers should join here.
Originally, this river should not be big, but suddenly it merged into another river. No wonder there would be flash floods.
Just the origin of this river... Lin Ran recalled the map without any clue.
That person only drew a map by hand, and he probably didn't explore the end point, but only stopped at the entrance of the ancient tomb.
In this case, the location of the ancient tomb should be at the back, and they had already passed it.
Lao Hei asked: "Brother Lin, what should we do now?"
He looked at the two rivers in front of him and did not doubt Lin Ran's ability. He just asked him which river he should go forward along.
The cross-sections of the two rivers are not large, only about twenty meters.
But when they come together, the river formed is nearly 50 meters long.
Lin Ran squatted down and touched the water of the two rivers.
At the point of confluence, the water is actually warm.
The sunshine is very good, but the river water in other places is cold, only the confluence is warm.
Lin Ran couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment.
He originally wanted to tell everyone that it would be better to go back.
However, he felt more and more strange about this place.
because.
A pool has formed here.
In the river below, water flows out of the pool.
This kind of place is a treasure of Feng Shui.
It means gathering spirits, and the blessings of future generations will be accumulated.
If he were to choose the cemetery...
He raised his head and looked over the pool.
The two rivers form a Y shape, and in the middle of the river is a mountain.
"Hongwu, you have good eyes, can you see that mountain clearly?" Lin Ran asked, blaming the mountain in the middle of the river.
"Okay." Hong Wu watched intently, "There is a cave!"
Hearing this, everyone else was very happy.
It’s self-evident what it means to have a cave in a place like this.
It's just that the pool is more than 20 meters wide, and there are some driftwood on it. Because of the recent flood, the pool is full, and the water inside has become very turbulent.
Not caring about other things, Lin Ran took off his shoes and took the lead in swimming towards the mountain.
The others saw this and followed behind.
Fortunately, several people had good swimming skills and quickly swam to the foot of the mountain.
This place was originally supposed to be flat land above the pond, but due to rising water, the flat land has been submerged.
They stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up to see a cave about five meters away.
Moreover, there is a piece of grass blowing in the wind at the entrance of the cave.
This also means that the cave is accessible.
Regardless of whether this is the entrance to the ancient tomb or not, there must be something wrong with this cave.
Of course Xu Ning refused to give in and took on the task of climbing the mountain.
He came to the mountain in only a few steps, and then said to everyone on the mountain: "There is a passage in the cave!"
really!
Everyone was overjoyed. There was a mystery hidden in the cave next to the pool.
They also climbed up the gravel to the mountain to feel the breeze in the cave.
Wang Jinpeng stood at the front of the team and picked up the flashlight. He still shouldered the responsibility of protecting the safety of the team.
From the outside, it looked like a naturally formed cave. Lin Ran thought it was unlikely that there were traps inside.
Walking along the cave, I turned a corner and saw another pond.
Wang Jinpeng took a deep breath: "Brother Lin, we seem to have reached a dead end."
Lin Ran began to look around.
In front of them was a depression.
There is a pool in the middle.
This mountain doesn't look big from the outside, but the space inside is exaggerated.
The pool in front of us was at least [-] square meters, and it looked like a fish pond contracted by farmers.
Behind the fish pond, there is a small waterfall.
The water from the mountains kept pouring in.
Then, there are openings on both sides of the fish pond to pour the water out.
This is the first time Lin Ran has seen this unique natural scenery.
In addition to the pond, there is a cave on the left side of the pothole, about 20 meters up.
There is still a faint light in the cave, which looks very penetrating.
Lin Ran nodded to Xu Ning and asked him to climb up with the dagger.
He couldn't guarantee whether there were snakes or other creatures in the mountain, and besides... he was also concerned about the previous tomb robbers.
There is a 1/3 probability that the tomb robber was rushed down the mountain from this cave.
Xu Ning climbed to the position of the cave, but showed a surprised look.
"What did you see?" Wang Jinpeng asked anxiously.
He also wanted to know where this light came from.
"Lamp of longevity." Xu Ning said simply, "Brother Lin, this looks like the door of the tomb."
The platform at the entrance of the cave is only large enough for two people to stay.
After everyone's unanimous approval, Lin Ran was chosen as the next person to go up.
Lin Ran grabbed the rope Xu Ning put down and climbed up the mountain.
Is this the real entrance?
