Chapter 35:Five Crossroads

The old smoke suddenly made a silent action, pointed to the right side of the road, and signaled us to go in.

We carefully entered the right way, until we couldn’t hear the sulking at all.

“That’s not a bad thing, is it?”Chen Lian asked a white face, but apparently he also felt that he was asking nonsense, and after asking, he was sure: "There is nothing but murder estimation here."

The old smoke looked open, saying that since the murder was on the left side of the road, we would go to the right, which would never be met.

I don't know if his words worked, and Chen's face looked better.

Walking along this road for about twenty minutes, the sound of the viper came again: "There is a fork in the road again..."

This time, the fork is even more exaggerated, there are five, and it looks exactly the same.

The venomous snake stared at the fork in the road half-way, and suddenly asked whether these roads would be connected, and whether it was possible for us to go down so far and bump into a piece of the murder?

He said that for a moment we fell silent and didn’t know what to do.

“Select one.”I stared at the passage slowly and said, "The murderer's drilling out of these passages is uncertain to find the exit, and if it meets, it is not without a way of life."

They are not convinced of my statement, but now that they may have just hit a piece with the murder, it is better to choose a path.

"Old smoke, this is your trick, you have to choose."Chen Lianchang looked at the old smoke, the latter did not refuse, went up in front of the five channels to stand, and then knelt down and knocked on the ground, which pointed to the second way on the left: go this one.

When I entered the passage, I asked him behind him, what was there to say?

He patiently explained that there was a faint wind in the road, and it was longer, and the other road fingers could not be dug.

I can't help but admire his meticulousness, such details can be noted.

He smiled and said, “To do our job, all you want is to be bold, otherwise you don’t even know how to die...”

I know that he is telling the truth, and the theft of the tomb is related, the courage must first be big, otherwise he will be scared to death without entering the cemetery.The second is to be careful, even if the small things in the cemetery may be fatal, if not careful enough, must not come out.

Old smoke is right, this road is very long, walked for about half an hour and did not meet the fork, which let us relax, there is no fork in the road to indicate that we will not encounter the murder.

"We're getting up."The smoke was exciting.

I nodded, the air was indeed getting drier, and from time to time there was sand, and it seemed that we were not far from the surface.

Still waiting for us to be happy, there was suddenly a sound of digging in front, and we were surprised: the murder will not be dug through here?

The old smoke did not say anything to take us back, but this passage was too long, ran for a while without a head, only heard the sound of digging soil behind and chasing life.

“Does it seem to stop?”Halfway through, did not hear the sound, I looked back with some curiosity, suddenly did not scare the problem: but saw a man full of black hair, wearing heavy armor is not far behind us, but it is the whole hidden in the dark, so that I can not see the appearance.

I shouted and ran, and the others also found abnormalities, and ran even more undead!

Returning to the five forks, we hesitated, and the old smoke quickly made the decision: to go around to the back.

We quickly ran back, back to the first fork in the road after directly choosing the left road, crazy run up.

Running about half, we encountered a fork in the road again, this time because another fork came from the sound of digging...

This thing is like a cat and mouse to us, chasing us constantly, not knowing how long we have been running in these curved passages, and finally the old smoke pulled us to a concave place.

"Here, dig."

The old smoke pointed to a place above our heads and told us to be careful when digging, and beware of the sudden pressure of the sand.

Chen Lianchang's right wrist was injured, there is no way to dig, the old smoke should pay attention to the murder at any time and did not follow, so only me and the viper and the snake with a crowbar to dig.

Fortunately, the soil under the sand is relatively soft, digging up without effort, and soon a narrow hole dug.

“Stop!”Ten minutes later, the old smoke shouted.

I thought it was the murder that followed, and in an instant was ready to fight, who knew that the old smoke just let us give up to the side, and then let me carry him with a crowbar and stab it on top.

Oh yeah...

A lot of sand poured down from the hole dug, and I hurriedly pulled back with the old smoke, but it was still a late step, so that he was covered with a face by the sand.

The old smoke stared at me: “Your boy did not do it on purpose?”

I laughed twice, I didn't mean it, just saw the sand unloaded in my heart a lot easier.

Fortunately, there was not much sand on the upper floor, and it was not long before it was poured out, and a cold moonlight came in.

I first put the old smoke up, and then I put Chen Liang and the viper up, and then they pulled it up.

As soon as I got out of the hole, I collapsed in the sand and came out: finally came out...

Looking at the bright moonlight on my head, I felt like I was alive.

The rest of the others also looked sad, paralyzed in the sand and motionless, seem to feel the joy out.

Find a safe place first."

After a little half an hour of rest, the old smoke crawled up from the sand and greeted us.

Although I did not want to move, the thought that the fierce thing was not likely to follow behind me, and I would jump out at any time, and I also started to fight and struggle.

But I thought of the murder, I thought it was a little strange, and asked the old smoke if it seemed to show us the way?After all, we followed the sound of its clamoring and digging along the way, and we never saw the true face of it.

The old smoke also felt strange: "Like in the last tomb, these things do not seem to be malicious, but like what to tell us..."

But as for what they want to tell us, we can't think of breaking our heads, so we have to put it aside first.

Finally we pitched a tent in a sheltered place, ready to rest for the night and then walked.

“Old smoke, do you want a telegram?”After a good rest, I suddenly remembered something and asked the old cigarette.

The old man said, "Look at the time is almost over."

This time he did not avoid us, but directly removed the signal station and the transmitter directly from the bag, and the dripping was pressed a string, which means asking the other party's safety.

But after the old smoke came, there was a delay in not answering, causing the old cigarette's eyebrows to be locked.

"Maybe something really happened to them."The old smoke sighed.

I comforted him by saying that he could not only not get the signal, and it was normal for the ghost place to have no signal.

“Hopefully.”The old smoke waved: "Go and rest, and leave tomorrow morning."

He turned and went into the tent, and Chen Liang looked at him and followed him.

I let the snake rest, and patted my chest and said, “I watch the night!”

It was almost midnight, and it was time to dawn when I finished.

Although the venomous snake felt that it was not good for me to keep watch alone, he had injuries on his body and really needed to rest, so he did not say anything more, and turned around and went into the tent.

I sat outside the tent, looking at the moonlight on my head.

It was already midnight when we came out, and I had only been in for two or three hours, and the day had begun to turn white, and the venomous snake came out of the tent to let me rest.

I did not refuse, and in the morning I was going on the road, and I could not have any spirit.

“Old Chen!”

Who knows, as soon as I got up, I heard the old smoke roaring, I ran over and opened their tent, only to see that Chen Liang was biting his lips, his hands constantly scratching his arms.

My pupil tightened sharply, because I saw that Chen Lian had produced one pus bag after another on his arm, just like the five people who died in front of the coffin.And the number of this pus is growing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye, and his whole arm is spreading across his body.

This pus bag is obviously very itchy, Chen Lianchang constantly scratched, some have been scratched by him, yellow liquid flowing down his arm, the sand corrode out of a hole.

“How can this be?”I said, for a while, I did not dare to pass, only hoped that what I saw was an illusion.
