Chapter 47: Stone Bridge Mystery

Looking around, I slowly saw the dim place: in the visible space, the ground was paved with rough substances. Looking along the ground towards the rock wall, the mottled and falling rock wall was faintly painted, but it was eroded by time and gradually lost its original appearance. It could hardly tell the original appearance, and what it was outlined.

What is unexpected is that the space above the head is covered with water mist, and I don’t know what is hidden above. Above the thunder pattern soul gathering pool is the stalactite cross bridge that is spreading across the bridge. The soul gathering wind chimes appearing faintly on the bridge. As the air waves surge up from the spring water, you can occasionally see a little bit clearly.

Cheng Geng secretly guessed in his heart that he stared at Gu Qiu who was facing him in front of him. The figure and even the smell were the Gu Qiu he was very familiar with, but all kinds of things appeared on the stalactite bridge in his mind, and he didn't dare to show off.

He took the courage to go forward slowly, and he thought, "If this person was not Gu Qiu, who would it be?" He didn't dare to think deeply, but the person in front of him was obviously Gu Qiu.

Gu Qiu saw the surroundings clearly and found that there was no other strange place in the stone chamber except for the carvings on the water pond wall. He slowly turned around, but found that Cheng Geng was standing behind him, with his thoughtful expression as if he was making some difficult decisions.

"What's wrong with you?" Gu Qiu couldn't help but his cheeks became hot. She thought to herself, "Would he think about what happened just now?" As soon as this thought came out, she was frightened and hurriedly abandoned the distracting thoughts, but there was a little more flash in her eyes when she looked at Cheng Geng.

Cheng Geng was shocked and waved his hand quickly, "No, nothing?"

Gu Qiu nodded, stared at the pool slowly, and then looked along the pool towards the small stone stalactite bridge. "There is nothing strange here. Apart from the mural in the water, there is nothing special. What have you discovered?"

"Ah...oh, no." Cheng Geng said in a panic, "I, I want to ask you a question?" He had a sudden idea and came up with a plan.

Gu Qiu found Cheng Geng was very strange and sighed, "You ask, as long as I can answer, I will tell you."

But she didn't know what she could not tell Cheng Geng. After all, their distance was very close. She couldn't help but feel more attached to Cheng Geng and got closer.

Cheng Geng subconsciously took a few steps back, "Can you tell me where we met?" Cheng Geng wanted to verify whether Gu Qiu was real Gu Qiu.

Gu Qiu paused and suddenly felt ecstatic. In the customs of the East, whenever a man wants to understand a woman's past, it is proved that this man is willing to spend his life with this woman. From the beginning of her encounter, from the incomprehension to the current understanding, and even revealing deep love, it was a short process, but in Gu Qiu's heart, they seemed to have known each other for a long time.

Gu Qiu had a little more gentle face and smiled, "We met on the sea boat of Sakura Company, I saved you."

Cheng Geng then breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "What happened on the Stalactite Bridge just now?"

Gu Qiu looked full of joy, thinking that he would continue to ask until he was courting him. But it was beyond her expectations. But when he saw Cheng Geng's serious look, he couldn't help but obey, "I want to ask you, what have you experienced? I haven't seen you chase you for a long time and come back to find you, but you jumped down the stalactites for no reason?"

As soon as he said this, Cheng Geng took a breath and asked quickly, "Do you mean, are you in front of me?"

Gu Qiuqi said, "What else? I reached out to save you, but I still couldn't hold you back, but I was dragged down by you." Gu Qiu was still scared when he remembered what happened just now.

Cheng Geng's face turned pale, and he was secretly frightened, "Who is the Gu Qiu he saved?" He looked at Gu Qiu again, and Gu Qiu's bright eyes were silent, without any lying.

"What's wrong with you? Why is it so strange?" Gu Qiu asked in his heart with concern, "Your face is very bad."

Cheng Geng said in a trembling voice, "Do you know? I couldn't see you at that time on the stone stalactite bridge and the golden iron chain. I kept calling you, but at that time, one hand was placed on my back, and when I turned around, I saw you."

Gu Qiu became surprised, "How is that possible? I never heard you call me? And I have been ahead of you..." The more she said, she felt stranger.

Cheng Geng took a deep breath, clenched his fists and said, "You said you wanted to save me, I pulled you down, but do you know that it was because you jumped off the cliff, and I was pulled down by you to save you. The moment I fell into the bottom of the water, I actually saw you. You were smiling at me, and behind you, there was a faint figure of a man."

Gu Qiu's back was cold and his hair was standing upside down. This was so strange, but Cheng Geng's appearance was definitely not a joke with him. She even believed that maybe there was something unclean here.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time and began to look around, obviously feeling a little scared.

After a long time, Cheng Geng shook his head, abandoned the distracting thoughts in his heart and said, "It's also my fault. I shouldn't have taken you here alone. I don't know what dangers you will encounter." His words came from deep in his heart, and he seemed to express his true feelings. Gu Qiu was very moved.

"It's nothing, I'm implicating you. This is the secret of my Gu family. I have to find out what happened. I also want to know why there are so many people who are not the Gu family in the Gu family's ancestral hall?" Gu Qiu remembered his life experience, and he even felt that only by unsolving this secret can she truly understand her identity.

Cheng Geng nodded. He never thought that Gu Qiu would be so charming and charming when he became gentle, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

But Gu Qiu said shyly, "Can I ask you a question?"

Seeing Gu Qiu's appearance, Cheng Geng didn't know what he would ask himself, so he nodded.

Gu Qiu slowly raised his head and asked seriously, "Who is Yini?"

Cheng Geng trembled and stared at Gu Qiu. He wondered how Gu Qiu knew the name, but then he figured it out. Perhaps Gu Qiu lived in a beautiful room and would inevitably know her name, so he said calmly, "It's the owner of the house you live in."

"Do you like her?" Gu Qiu asked.

Cheng Geng looked at Gu Qiu in surprise, but when facing Gu Qiu's eyes, he didn't know how to explain. Gu Qiu knew, "I understand, then where is she now?" From her tone, she was obviously a little disappointed.

Cheng Geng thought of Yini and said in a trembling voice, "Die."

Gu Qiu was shocked, his eyes were very changed, it was not a surprise or sadness, "Then you must like her very much."

Cheng Geng became more and more strange. Gu Qiu was always confused about this issue, so he stared at Gu Qiu.

Gu Qiu felt that he was abrupt and quickly explained, "When you were unconscious, you kept calling her name."

Cheng Geng remembered that if it weren't for the Yini area, he might have died in the dense land, but he never expected that he would call the Yini name in a coma, but he figured out the key in a blink of an eye. Perhaps, the moment he jumped into the pool from the dense land, his memory was full of beautiful things, and when he fell into the water and was unconscious, he naturally called the Yini name. In order to eliminate Gu Qiu's curiosity, he explained, "She lost her life to save me."

Gu Qiu's eyes were shocked. She never thought that Cheng Geng, who seemed to be careless, had such an unknown side, and even had a little more favorable impression of the beauty she had never met.

Cheng Gengsong breathed a sigh of relief, but Gu Qiu asked again, "Who is Juhong?"

Cheng Geng's face changed drastically. He really cared about the unbearable past! Orange red was an indelible knot in his heart, and it suddenly became unstable. "What do you mean is that when I was in a coma, I even called this person's name?"

Gu Qiu felt something was wrong and nodded quickly.

Cheng Geng blushed and didn't know how to explain it. While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a cry for help coming from another direction.

"Help, what is this?"

He didn't even bother to think about it anymore, so he looked at Gu Qiu, and rushed over after hearing the sound.

The ground made a crisp sound, as if tapping on porcelain with your fingers.

Cheng Geng couldn't help but slow down, carefully continued to look at the ground, and then he realized that the ground was actually tiles, which should be hollow tiles, so that there would be such a clear sound. Every time he took a step, the strange sound fell into his ears, making him feel weak and a chill spread throughout his body. He couldn't figure out what would be in the tiles, but it would be better if it were the group of snakes he had seen in the dense land.

Gu Qiu suddenly stopped and turned around and asked, "What are you?"

Cheng Geng didn't want to have too much trouble and smiled, "Nothing?" He walked towards Gu Qiu carefully, his movements seemed very strange.

Gu Qiu not only smiled, "Is there something wrong with this?"

Gu Qiu was just a joke, but as soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Geng heard the rustling sound keenly, and his scalp became numb. He hurriedly stepped forward and took Gu Qiu's hand and ran forward.

Gu Qiu was very happy. Although he didn't know what happened, Cheng Geng's actions made her girlish heart jump around.

It was only after they ran that the stone chamber was bigger than they thought. It seemed like a mine cave, bottomless, but the ground was paved with ceramic tiles. The rustling sound became clearer and clearer, as if an unknown creature slowly woke up.

Cheng Geng's legs became weak, Gu Qiu began to feel abnormalities, listened with his ears, and suddenly stopped, asking strangely, "Did you notice that something seems to be hidden under his feet?" Just as she finished speaking, the shrill cry came again, "Escape quickly, don't worry about me, run away quickly." This was Ning Guoyuan's voice.

Cheng Geng's hanging heart was raised to his throat. At this moment, Gu Qiu also screamed, "There are bugs on the ground."

Cheng Geng saw clearly that something dark gradually crawled out of the gap in the tiles.

The crawling worm was about the size of a little finger. When you look a little bit, it looks like a centipede, but it is not a centipede. The head of the centipede is in a distant shape of iron braids, but the long worm has a triangular head. On its slender body, the eldest son has a pair of flesh wings. At first glance, he not only took a breath, but he never dared to stay again.

As they walked around, they alarmed the bugs below. There were countless bugs gathered on the ground, and the rustling sound made people frightened.

"What kind of bug is this? Why is it so strange?" Gu Qiu asked in surprise.

Cheng Geng was in the mood to explain, and ran forward. He was afraid that he would stay again, and neither of them would want to walk out of here.

The 'rustling' sound kept echoing in my ears. Cheng Geng really couldn't understand why there were so many strange long insects under this tiles, and what were the uses of these long insects?

As the raid broke out, an empty place appeared in front of me.

On the huge flat ground in front, countless long insects gathered on the ground. Ning Guoyuan was now deeply trapped in the long insects and struggled desperately. Those terrifying long insects filled his body, making a harsh sound of "cracking" and chewing Ning Guoyuan's bones.

On the other side, Zhang Xiaolin lay on Mu Xiancui and kept shouting to Ning Guoyuan, "Brother, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you." Zhang Xiaolin kept shouting to Mu Xiancui, "Let me go and save him quickly." But Mu Xiancui ignored him, and no one knew better than him that Ning Guoyuan was no longer saved.

Ning Guoyuan shouted to Zhang Xiaolin with his last consciousness, "Brother Zhang, go quickly, Anxi cannot be without you." As he spoke, his body gradually collapsed and slowly fell into the long insects, swallowed by the dense swarm.

Gu Qiu couldn't help but retching, but at this moment, she was frightened to see the dense swarms behind her rushing towards Cheng Geng, "What should I do now?"

Zhang Xiaolin burst into tears, like a child, heartbroken. When Mu Xiancui was helpless, he finally saw Cheng Geng and Gu Qiu, and was very happy and called out, "Come here, there is an exit here."

Cheng Geng said without saying a word, pulled Gu Qiu up and ran towards Mu Xiancui and Zhang Xiaolin. The sound of the tile was always awakened by the sound of stomping on the tiles.

After a few steps, Zhang Xiaolin stopped crying. Cheng Geng was shocked to find that the insect swarm on the ground had reached the verge of collapse, so he could no longer help and ran towards the exit.

Mu Xiancui carried Zhang Xiaolin on his back and followed closely, but when the three of them arrived at the exit, they found Gu Qiu stunned at the beginning, not moving at all.

Cheng Geng shouted anxiously, "Gu Qiu, why are you waiting for if you don't come here quickly?"

Gu Qiu didn't say anything, but just stared at the densely packed insects and walked forward.

The dense swarms of insects on the ground are getting closer and closer. If Gu Qiu takes a few steps, he will definitely be swallowed by the swarms like Ning Guoyuan.

But Gu Qiu seemed to be attracted, completely out of control, and walked towards the place where Ning Guoyuan fell.

The dense insect swarm had swallowed Ning Guoyuan's body, and even the yellow military uniform eroded cleanly, leaving behind a white bone with blood stains.

Zhang Xiaolin was heartbroken and couldn't bear to look on, so he leaned on Mu Xiancui and cried. This arrogant general seemed very fragile at this moment.

The muscles were still stuck between Ning Guoyuan's bones, so they would not be scattered. At this time, under the climb of the worm, he actually stood up slowly, and even Zhang Xiaolin stopped wailing.

The dense long worms were getting closer and closer, and they had gradually climbed up Gu Qiu's shoes. At this moment, Cheng Geng arrived, grabbed Gu Qiu, and without saying a word, he led her towards the exit.

There was no twists and turns, but what made people shudder was that while Gu Qiu was running, the worm on his shoes actually climbed slowly along the upper and towards her upper body. Cheng Geng saw it in his eyes, but he did not dare to stop at all.

The swarm of insects behind him chased after him, and Cheng Geng ran harder. He just wanted to take Gu Qiu out of danger as soon as possible, and then remove the long insect crawling on her.

Finally, he slowly rushed to the exit, and Mu Xiancui breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Qiu was still confused, his reluctant eyes staring at Ning Guoyuan's white bones.

Cheng Geng stared at the insects on Gu Qiu's body in a slight moment, searching everywhere, and didn't care about so many times at the moment of crisis. He retracted his hand in his sleeve and brushed away the insects on Gu Qiu's body. Although he was passing through the sleeve, the moment he touched the Taoist worm, he felt uncomfortable all over. He quickly brushed away the last insect on Gu Qiu's chest with his breathing, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The long worm that fell on the exit ground became anxious and actually wanted to run back. It seemed that there was something that made them afraid of at the exit, but Cheng Geng was reluctant to let it go and stepped on the long worm.
