Chapter 25 Exploring Banzhu Lake

The swollen bag on Ouyang Lan's forehead had been eliminated, and her black and shiny hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing her delicate face, like an exquisite work of art. She walked up to me and put her slap face in front of me. Her eyes were full of questions, "What's wrong?"

Seeing that I didn't answer, I raised the bracelet I wore on my white wrist and asked, "Does it look good? This is my carefully selected."

My heart was already like a mess. I didn't hear Ouyang Lan's questions at all, and my steps couldn't help but speed up.

"Hey, hey, I'm asking you, I'm leaving so fast and rushing to reincarnate!" Ouyang Lan saw that she was urging her to leave faster and soon, she opened a distance and hurriedly caught up.

Ouyang Lan was very unhappy, sulked and said nothing, and was speechless all the way.

When I saw the calm lake in front of me, the sadness between my eyebrows became even stronger. I crossed the grass, ignored the standing warning signs, and slid down the soil slope and walked on the mud that had receded. My eyes swept across the entire lake. The calm water surface was like a piece of jasper, clusters of water plants emerged from the water, the breeze blew, swaying branches and leaves. Several sand-washing boats and broken fishing boats were either drifting in the middle of the lake or docked on the shore.

I sighed, disappointed that I had found nothing. Ouyang Lan's shouts and urging sounds came from the shore. I was about to turn around and turn around, but I found a strange plant on the shore with a little red color on the grass leaves. I walked over and saw that the bright red color was stained with blood, regardless of Ouyang Lan's shouts.

I pushed apart the grass and exposed a mud hole more than a half meters high. The hole had not been completely dried and turned into a wrinkled mud. Standing at the hole, I could feel a chill all over, as if I was standing at the entrance of the ice cellar. At the same time, I asked a smell of fishy smell, and I vomited out the food I had eaten in the morning.

After vomiting, I climbed out of the grass again, leaned over the hole with my hands, and stretched my head and half of my body into the hole. The smell of fishy smell in the hole became even stronger. Fortunately, I had already cleared my stomach when I came in again. Even so, I almost fainted. The hole was a slightly tilted straight line.

I tried to get my body deeper, and finally lie in the mud, crawling. After crawling about three meters, the tunnel became almost vertically downward, and it was too dark inside. I couldn't see clearly. The lights of the mobile phone only illuminated the range of two or three meters nearby, and it didn't work much.

Just as I reached into the hole with my phone in my hand, I rubbed a cold object with my arm, shone the light with my backhand and saw a colorful giant python hovering in a pit in the cave. I just thought the passage was straight, but I didn't expect there would be a fork.

Now things are getting big, my heart is beating wildly, and I dare not let out a breath. Fortunately, I found that the python seemed to be resting. I held my breath, retracted my hand, and explored the cave, so I could only let it go first. What I think of now is the news that the python devoured people. I saw it on TV but it was not as exciting as it is now.

This python is at least as thick as my thighs and will not be less than two meters long. Five or six strong men in the open space may not be able to control it, let alone the ribs that I didn't like, and were squeezed into the narrow mud hole. It was simply a food to deliver to it.

I secretly scolded myself for being stupid and should be prepared before coming in. Now my intestines are blue, but I regret it when I return. Now it is still sleeping, so I can escape if I am careful.

I slowly felt afraid of making a little noise and woke it up. The lights on my phone were also turned off, afraid of irritating it. In this way, I climbed for nearly five minutes at a distance of more than three meters. When I climbed out, I immediately covered the haystack and pretended that I couldn't find the toilet, just like a person who had just been lifted out of the grass.

As if nothing had happened, Ouyang Lan was already impatient on the shore and her emotions were accumulated to the peak. However, when she saw me looking around and covered in mud, her questions and curiosity overwhelmed her anger and asked, "Have you hit a ghost or fell into a stinky ditch? How did you become this desolate?"

Ouyang Lan pinched her small nose and said, "It smells so smelly, stay away from me."

I didn't have the intention to argue with her, so I came to the pool and washed the stinky mud on my hands and face. I kept thinking about the strangeness of the cave. When I saw the red spots on my clothes, I wiped it a little with my fingers and put it in front of me.

This is definitely blood. Could it be Zhang Zixuan's blood? Could it be that Wu Cheng is referring to that mud hole?

I didn't dare to make a rash decision, so I could only find a way to enter the cave and find out.

I washed my face and hands, but the soil on my body couldn't be washed clean. Ouyang Lan suggested: "Let's go to those people's houses to borrow a set of clothes."

I nodded, and now this is the only way. I secretly went to the cave and followed Ouyang Lan on the dirt road full of weeds. This place called Banzhu Lake is not very famous, but the fishery products inside are very rich, which brings a lot of benefits to some people.

We came to a boat house, which was a very old boat. The deck was made of wooden boards. There were some dry and smelly fishing nets outside, and there were wooden pulp broken into two sections. I shouted twice, but there was no response inside.

Ouyang Lan shouted in a crisp voice: "Is anyone at home?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened. Ouyang Lan glanced at me with a proud look. A middle-aged man with dirt hidden under his wrinkles opened the door, "What's wrong with a girl?"

Ouyang Lan did not respond and ran away in shame. I replied, "I'm disturbing." The uncle stood there in a confused look on his face.

We walked not far away and saw a desolate big boat docking near the bamboo forest. We stepped forward to say hello. There was an old woman living on the boat, and a girl of seven or eight years old. The girl's skin was dark, probably because she was sunburned and her hands were dirty.

When we arrived, she was helping the old lady to cook. The old lady knew that we were here to stay and was like she wanted to refuse, but when Ouyang Lan took out two hundred-dollar bills, the old lady's eyes were shining with stars and smiled and agreed.

When Ouyang Lan saw a little girl living so hard, she felt very sympathetic and had to take out some money. I quickly stopped her, pulled her aside, and told her not to show off her wealth when she was out.

Ouyang Lan felt that I was thinking too much, and before leaving, he scolded me, "You are too cold-blooded, this is just a poor old lady, not as bad as you think."

I had to let her go. The little girl's mouth was also very sweet. The old lady cooked for us in a simple and sincere manner, making hot fish soup and rice with teeth. I ate a few slices of fish scales from the fish soup. Ouyang Lan put down the bowls and chopsticks after taking a few bites. The little girl was very clever and said she wanted to take Ouyang Lan to see the fireflies.

After they left, the old lady sent the girl to the door. The little girl was very sensible and asked her grandma to come back for dinner. I silently ate the yellowed rice in my bowl.
