Chapter 40: Gate of Life and Death
I quickly stopped the fat man:
"No, there is a vortex below. If we go down like this, we will be swept away!"
The fat man was stunned for a while, then suddenly fumbled for a bundle of rope from his backpack, stretched it out to me and said:
"Then tie the three of us together with a rope so we won't get separated."
"Okay, Fatty! You are very conscious!"
I took the rope and tied one end of the rope around my waist, and the other end around the fat man's arm.
Then I waved to the big golden tooth:
"Come on Lord Jin, your place is here!"
As I said that, I pointed to the middle of the rope and motioned for him to tie it to his waist.
Soon, the three of us were fully equipped and everything was ready, except for getting into the water.
I walked in front, approaching the deep pool step by step.
Big Jinya and I walked smoothly, except Fatty.
Because I couldn't see the road, I walked one foot deeper and one foot shallower, and howled behind me, telling me to walk slower.
I was too lazy to pay attention to him. When I reached the edge of the deep pool, I stopped and told the fat man behind me:
"Fat man! There is a deep pool ahead! Don't touch it for a while.
Hold your breath, wherever I go, you go, do you hear me?"
"no problem!"
The fat man shouted in response.
Then I said to the big golden tooth behind me:
"Master Jin, you may be holding your breath for a long time, and there will be a whirlpool inside. Can your body still hold on?"
I looked at Big Jinya's body and thought he would stay up there.
Unexpectedly, he slapped his chest and said forcefully:
"Don't look at me, I have a body that was born in 1982! Our body is very strong! Come on! It's okay!"
What Da Jinya said is called courage!
Then I turned around and shouted:
"Into the water!"
After saying that, I took a big gulp of air and plunged into the deep pool.
Behind him came the big gold tooth and the fat man who also got into the water.
Because the visibility was low, I didn’t remember the location of the cave entrance.
After entering the water, I still pressed against the stone wall and groped for the entrance of the cave with my hands.
Soon, I found the cave entrance again.
I stopped and tugged on the rope with my hands. The next second, the rope was also pulled back several times.
After confirming the password, I dragged the rope into the cave.
When we first entered the cave, it was the same as before.
We were instantly sucked into the vortex in the middle, and the three of us, Fatty, were now like grasshoppers on a rope.
I can't run away, and neither can they.
The three of us kept spinning in that vortex until all three of us passed out.
When we woke up next time, we had arrived at the tomb.
Likewise, the three of us were lying calmly on the shore, with still no water stains around our bodies.
I hurriedly called out to the unconscious fat man, slapped him in the face, spit out sewage, and woke up.
I walked towards the big golden tooth and followed the same steps: slap, spit water, wake up.
After everyone woke up, I untied the rope tied around my waist.
I walked to the middle of the four cave entrances and observed them repeatedly.
According to my speculation, only one of these four stone caves should lead to the main tomb chamber.
That is to say, there is only one gate of life, and the rest are gates of death.
There are no marks engraved on these four caves. If you want to just guess, you will basically escape death.
Just when I was thinking about how to tell which one was born, the fat man shouted from behind.
"Hey, Arlene, are we in the tomb? Why do I still feel nothing?"
The fat man was shaking his flashlight wildly as he spoke.
Seeing this, I quickly pulled the fat man to the four stone caves and said to the fat man:
"To be precise, we are at the gate of the tomb now, but the owner of the tomb doesn't seem to agree with us fighting against him."
"What do you mean?" the fat man asked doubtfully.
"There are four caves in front of you, and only one of them leads to the main tomb. If you choose the wrong one, you will definitely die!"
After hearing what I said, the fat man fell silent and didn't say a word for a long time.
I was busy preparing to call Da Jinya over to analyze which route was safe.
But at this moment, the fat man thought for a long time and finally said:
"There are four cave entrances, and there are three of us. After all, this person is not dead enough."
"Huh?" I turned back and glared at the fat man: "You don't know how to give advice!"
The fat man was considered honest after being yelled at by me, so he stepped aside dejectedly and stopped saying a word.
I hurriedly called Da Jinya over and wanted him to analyze whether this cave was related to the door of life and death in the Yin and Yang Bagua.
Big Gold Tooth lay in the cave and looked and looked and calculated again and again, and finally waved his hand to me:
"There is no information at all on this cave, and even the directions are messed up.
It has nothing to do with Yin Yang Bagua."
Hearing what Big Jinya said, I immediately felt a little confused, thinking that since this cave is not a Yin-Yang Eight Diagrams.
So what exactly is used to draw the gate of life and death?
Just when I was puzzled, I glanced and saw the fat man squatting on the ground with an aggrieved look on his face.
I suddenly had a good idea and hurriedly walked to the fat man and helped him up.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
The fat man kept shouting, and I pulled him to four stone caves.
I coughed lightly and said to the fat man:
"Fat man, in front of you are still the four caves. This time you rely on a man's sixth sense. Which one do you want to choose?"
The fat man was stunned for a moment after hearing what I said. His expression was dumbfounded, and he quickly asked me:
"Are you... asking for my opinion?"
I hummed to express that I was right.
At this time, the fat man immediately laughed, and his back was already straightened.
As if he were a big boss, he cleared his throat and then pointed at the cave:
"I will choose whoever the big rooster clicks!" The fat man pointed to the first cave and shouted:
"Just leave this way!"
I saw the fat man's actions, which completely subverted my outlook on life.
Over the years, I have seen people go down to the tomb to worship Huskies, and I have also seen people go down to the tomb to worship Aladdin.
But if Fatty plays the role of selecting soldiers and generals to choose students, he is really like a scorpion.
If Master Mojin had seen this scene, he would have been so angry that he would have wanted to dig up the ancestral graves of Fatty's family.
Isn't this just lighting up lanterns in a latrine and openly seeking death?
I looked at the fat man's confident expression and asked suspiciously:
"Fat man...are you sure?"
"Sure! Choose me, there's absolutely no problem!" After saying that, the fat man actually laughed.
Looking at the confident face of the fat man, I really wonder who gave him the courage, Liang Jingru?
I couldn't help but ask again:
"Then what should you choose if it's not a good choice?"
The fat man sneered and said:
"Isn't this simple?"
Then he extended another finger.
"Get out of the clay pot, mud bowl, mud! Get out of here!" Then the fat man pointed at the first cave and shouted:
Chapter completed!
