Hu Bayi took out a tinder from his pocket, blew into it, and then threw it into the hole.

The flame from the tinder illuminated a small area at the entrance of the cave.

But I still can't see how deep it is.

"It seems that we have no choice." Chu Tian took a deep breath, "Let's go in and take a look."

"Wait a minute, I'll go call Fatty first."

Hu Bayi said, and turned to run towards the entrance, shouting as he ran: "Fatty! There's a hole here, do you want to go down with me?"

The fat man was taking a nap under a tree. When he heard the word "hole" in a daze, he woke up with a start.

There are not many things in this world that can interest fat people. Apart from eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, and sleeping, the only thing left is treasures.

A cave suddenly appeared in this deep forest. Who knows what treasures are hidden inside!

He immediately perked up and didn't even bother to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

He rushed over with a bulging backpack on his back, yelling.

"We have to be together, Lao Hu, here I come!"

……

The three men, each holding a flashlight, walked into the cave.

The entrance of the hole looked like it had been torn open by something, and its edges were jagged.

The surrounding soil also took on an unnatural gray-black color and emitted a disgusting stench.

A suffocating silence filled the cave, with only the footsteps of three people echoing in the empty space.

It's like the beat of a drum beating in people's hearts, again and again, making them feel uneasy.

The fat man wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Old Hu, this hole is too deep. Are we going to the center of the earth?"

"Shut up! How much effort would it take to build this tomb in the center of the earth?"

The fat man chuckled and didn't refute.

He just stared around with flickering eyes, afraid of missing any treasure.

I don’t know how long I walked, but the passage ahead suddenly became wider.

Three beams of flashlight shone forward at the same time, and the scene before them stunned them all.

What appeared before them was a huge underground cave.

The top of the cave is so high that you can't see the top, and all you can see is a dark shadow.

The stalactites hang down densely, like countless sharp swords.

In the center of the cave, there is a huge altar.

Made of an unknown black stone.

There are many strange patterns and symbols carved on it.

It seems like some ancient text, or some mysterious spell.

There are dozens of thick stone pillars standing around the altar.

Each stone pillar is carved with monsters of various shapes, which look hideous and ferocious.

There were also many bones scattered on the ground.

"This...what the hell is this place?"

The fat man asked in horror, his voice trembling a little.

Chu Tian squatted down and carefully observed the white bones on the ground with the light of the flashlight.

The bones have lost their original color and turned a grayish white.

Some have even shattered into pieces.

"There are human bones, and some... look like animals."

"It looks like this is an ancient sacrificial site."

"In ancient sacrificial ceremonies, living people were usually sacrificed, using their blood and lives to pray for the protection of the gods."

"As for these animals, they should also be sacrifices."

Chu Tian looked around, his eyes lingering on the monster statues of various shapes for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "What do these statues represent?"

“These statues should be legendary beasts used to guard altars and tombs.”

Hu Bayi pointed to one of the winged snake statues and said.

"Look at this statue. It should be the legendary Teng Snake. It is said that it can ride on clouds and mist, and control wind, rain, thunder and lightning."

The fat man came forward and took a closer look at the Teng Snake statue, curled his lips and said, "This thing looks too ugly, it's not as good as the pug I used to have."

Hu Bayi was too lazy to pay attention to the fat man's nonsense and continued, "Ancient people were superstitious and believed that these mythical beasts possessed powerful powers and could drive away evil and protect peace."

"Should we go to the altar and take a look now?" Chu Tian asked.

"Of course I have to go and take a look. Maybe I can find some treasures there!"

When the fat man heard the word "baby", he immediately became excited and couldn't wait to rush to the altar.

Hu Bayi grabbed the fat man and said, "Don't worry! This altar must be full of traps. We have to be careful and don't get caught!"

"I gonna go see."

As Chu Tian spoke, he tapped his toes lightly and floated up like a feather, landing steadily on the edge of the altar.

Below, Hu Bayi and Fatty looked up, like two frogs in a well.

"How about it, Brother Tian, ​​is there any treasure up there?"

The fat man asked in a hoarse voice, his tone full of anticipation.

Chu Tian did not answer immediately. He walked to the center of the altar and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

There was a huge bronze tripod placed in the center of the altar.

The body of the tripod is carved with cloud and thunder patterns, and there is still some black ashes remaining at the mouth of the tripod, emitting a strange fragrance.

Around the tripod, there are some jade artifacts and weapons scattered around.

There are also some unknown skeletons that look weird and mysterious.

"There is a large tripod inside, and there are some jade artifacts and weapons around it."

Chu Tian described it briefly.

"Weapons and jade?"

Hu Bayi lowered his head and pondered...

At this time, each of them was studying the objects in the altar.

One of them lowered his head in thought.

I didn't notice the movement around me.

The fat man coveted the treasures on the altar, but he didn't dare to fly into the sky like Chu Tian, ​​so he was anxiously scratching his ears and cheeks.

He rolled his eyes and found a stone half a person's height next to him, and immediately an idea came to his mind.

He picked up the stone, moved to the altar breathlessly, and climbed up using his hands and feet.

The altar is already very old, and now a heavyweight player like Fatty has joined.

Suddenly, unable to bear the weight, the entire altar began to shake violently.

Chu Tian was caught off guard and almost stumbled and fell.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stabilized his body in time.

"Fatty! You want to kill Brother Tian!"

Hu Bayi was so frightened watching from below that he couldn't help but curse.

"Hey, Lao Hu, don't get excited. I just want to see what treasures are inside. I don't have any other intentions!"

The fat man explained with a wry smile, but his eyes were fixed on the center of the altar, and his saliva was almost flowing out.

at this time.

The altar began to shake.

Hu Bayi thought it was the fat man shaking again.

I couldn't help but say, "Fatty, could you please stop shaking?"

The fat man blinked his innocent eyes and said, "Who... who shook, Lao Hu, I didn't move at all now."

"what's the situation?!"

"No, look above your heads!"

Chu Tian raised his head and looked at the top.
