Who stole it?
"What did you say?" I immediately pounced towards the bald man, my whole body like a leopard, but without any of the natural killing power of a leopard. Before I even touched the bald man's hand, he quickly dodged out of the way, it seems that this bald man's skills are not something ordinary people can possess. As early as when he carried Zhou Baihe, who weighed around 160 pounds, on his small back, I had some doubts, and now they have been truly verified.
Baldy not only has great strength, but also reacts much faster than me. If someone else had suddenly pounced on me without warning just now, I would have definitely been knocked over.
It's obvious that being bald makes people inevitably suspicious, and it also proves that I am innocent.
"I don't know, I really don't know." The bald man's eyes were dazed, looking at me with a hint of doubt, as if he was confirming and yet hesitating.
"How can you be sure it wasn't him who took it? The thing was found in his bag." Little Skinny Monkey's gaze was like a sharp sword, staring straight at Baldy.
Finally, Baldy excitedly told everything he knew.
That was something that happened ten days ago, and as for who took it, it's related to the origin of the matter.
It turned out that Baldy had set off with Zhou Baihe and others, and in the Zhou family, Baldy was a top-notch expert in digging holes. Due to his short stature, he was particularly skilled in all aspects of hole-digging.
Qiu Bo took a liking to Guang Tou because he could handle some sensitive matters, so naturally followed him.
When they entered the tomb, they were surrounded by a group of ghosts. The bald-headed man was the first to discover them, and his eyes were very poisonous. As a result, they lost some people and got separated.
However, they dispersed at the Bronze Gate and split into two groups.
One team is led by Zhou Baihe, while the other team is Qubao.
They arrived at the Bronze Gate at the same time, however, they all had one thing in common, that is, following this thing.
That's the crystal ball.
Zhou Baihe had a crystal ball in his hand, but as soon as he reached the bronze gate, it disappeared into thin air.
The bronze gate, however, could not be entered. They lingered outside the bronze gate for two days and one night. These two days and one night were neither long nor short. If Baldy hadn't woken up in the middle of the night, they wouldn't have discovered this problem.
Guang Tou woke up in a daze, or rather, he was cold-awakened. He stared at the scene before him, thinking he had seen it wrong, so he closed his eyes and opened them again, only to find that person still there.
That was a completely unfamiliar figure, someone who had never appeared in the team, but Guang Tou didn't get a clear look at what he looked like because he was always facing away from him. He said he hadn't seen him before because of the difference in his back, there was no such back in the team. First, it was judged that this point was due to Guang Tou's clear sight of the crystal ball in his hand, which didn't make him suspicious, what made him suspicious was that hand, not normal, a normal person's hand has five fingers, but this palm had six fingers.
Of course, he was the only one who knew that at the time, because most of the people resting were injured and slept like dead pigs, even the night watchman. He was afraid that the other party would have dangerous weapons in their hands, so they didn't dare to make a sound, and finally watched as the shadow left.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask: "What did he take away?"
"I wasn't clear either, and later on, nothing was lost between us, I thought it was just my own dream, but yesterday, I found out that it wasn't a dream, it really happened, I saw that person."
By the time I heard this, my throat was lifted up, as if there was a feeling in my heart that what was about to come out of Guangtou's mouth would be a breakthrough point, about all sorts of inexplicable and mysterious things that had happened along the way.
But at this time, on the bald head's face, I saw fear, an indescribable fear, accompanied by despair, as if it was a desperate despair that had ignited from the bottom of his heart. For a moment, I couldn't adapt to this change. Was the person with six fingers on each hand a freak or a monster?
I saw the bald head's fearful expression, and I didn't urge him to continue speaking. I understood that when people see something unimaginable or perhaps never seen before, they may struggle to breathe for a moment and need time to clear their minds. Just like when I first saw a wild bear, my whole body was stunned, even my brain went blank, not to mention anything else. Now thinking back, I still needed some time to calm down, digest it, after all, I'm just an ordinary person who can be afraid and feel helpless from the bottom of my heart, fearful.
So, I could understand why Baldy had that look on his face. I turned my head to look at Little Skinny Monkey and almost bit my own tongue off. I trembled a little and asked, "You... you also saw it?"
After a few seconds, the thin monkey stared into my eyes and spat out two words, almost making me vomit blood.
"No."
It was obvious that this kid was lying, but I didn't ask any further questions.
Having six fingers on each hand is not that unusual, but in this place it's extremely strange, like a ghost, appearing and disappearing suddenly.
Ghost?
I was suddenly frightened by this idea of mine, and my face turned pale as paper.
I've heard of this thing, and it often makes people's hearts fearful. Not to mention seeing it. I'm an atheist, but all the things that have happened recently are damn terrible, mysterious enough to make one think of ghosts.
"Yesterday, just yesterday, that shadow came again, I saw it with my own eyes, absolutely not an illusion..." A virtual voice, I clearly saw the bald head's hands trembling, like an eighty or ninety-year-old old woman, as if they were about to stop breathing at any moment.
"Is it a ghost?" I muttered, my heart also very afraid, the image of the faceless and featureless female ghost from the movie appearing in my mind, for a moment my whole body was shaking, feeling like I had seen a ghost.
Stop it, damn it, I'm scaring myself to death before I've even seen anything. I immediately gave myself a slap in the face, scaring myself silly.
"Shut up, where did this ghost come from? Stop being so superstitious, can't you see you're a person of the new era, still stuck on feudal superstitions. No wonder your brain isn't very bright, I finally understand why you and pigs are so..."
Before the thin monkey finished speaking, I interrupted him in a loud voice and angrily said: "You little brat, shut up, is that all...?"
I really don't know how to scold people, after all, there are only a few sentences to scold, it's not interesting, so I won't bother with him. Besides, in this place where the dead live, what can you think of? It's not like digging out a bunch of hamburgers from a coffin.
Finally, Xiao Shou Hou grinned and hastily pulled out a gun, saying "Since we've already found the thing, even if there really are ghosts, what's to be afraid of? With this steel gun in hand, one shot will make them into mush."
"Baldy, didn't you see what that was?" I asked cautiously, the fear in my heart growing deeper and deeper, as if many things were pulling me in further.
Baldy's face sank at the words, his eyes filled with a great deal of fear, and finally, he shifted his mouth to whisper: "I didn't see it, really didn't..."
"Never mind, asking further won't yield any results anyway. Let's just think of a way to get in quickly instead." Xiao Shou Hou's eyes narrowed into a small slit, revealing a hint of cleverness.
"There's only one way into the Abyssal Iron Gate, no one has ever found another entrance." The bald man said with a shake of his head.
The bronze gate in front of me, it was then that I remembered what Zhao Si had told me. He wanted to enter the bronze gate and he had a way to do so, which was to bring me with him, definitely bringing me with him.
I think that behind the Iron Gate, there must be a major secret, which would attract them to disregard life and death, and disregard everything.
Zhao Si should have another way in, thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel disheartened, Zhao Si was gone, whether he was alive or dead was still unknown.
At this time, I picked up the things on the ground and put them into my backpack one by one. When my hand touched the map, a strange wind swept past my hand, warm and hot, followed by a painful feeling, scorching hot.
"Be careful...the beast has found us again."
