Chapter 200 “Going forward here”

Hanif said it is true.

Lynch's group of Pinkton detectives swam across the bottom of the lake and came ashore in the dark cave, then lit the lantern in his hand.

They stretched their necks and waited for a long time, but they didn't wait until Lynch crawled out of the water.

"Sir, do we want to go back and have a look?" a detective asked the adjutant.

The adjutant was a little hesitant. Since Lincolnshire retreated last time, he had begun to feel a little confused about Lynch.

If it were before, he would have waited until Lynch came.

But now, he couldn't say it, and he couldn't guess what his commander was thinking now.

"Fuck, what is this?"

The exclamation of a detective attracted everyone's attention from the lake to him, and everyone surrounded him.

They saw the monster's body.

"Is this a fish?"

"Fart, have you seen fish with feet? I think this is a lizard."

"You are talking nonsense. Why are lizards so inconsistent in the front and rear limbs? Hey, look at the fangs, you said, what would it feel like if you were bitten by the fangs?"

"What are you afraid of? If you have the ability, you will meet someone again. I will catch a living person and sell it to my uncle. He is from the circus. People from Kansas are cute to see this thing."

...

A group of detectives were still talking endlessly, but the adjutant could no longer watch:

“Is it time to discuss this?”

He kicked the monster's body, confirmed that it was dead, and pulled out the revolver on his waist: "Go and walk down the underground river."

A detective volunteered to walk in front of the team with a horse lantern.

He was the nephew of the circus owner, the one who claimed to catch a living monster.

The cave was very narrow, and the light of the lantern was dim and unclear, but it was enough to illuminate the road ahead.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from a dark cave on the side, causing the lantern in his hand to shake.

"Sir, it seems that the exit is here." He stopped, pointed to the cave where the wind blew, and turned his head to the adjutant behind him.

But the adjutant didn't say anything. His eyes crossed the detective's shoulder and looked behind the detective.

The detective discovered something was wrong and slowly turned his head back.

In the darkness at the entrance of the cave, countless pairs of blood-red eyes suddenly appeared, staring at them tightly.

The detective was ready to take action first, so he drew his gun and prepared to shoot.

But it just so happened that the two monsters closest to him thought so.

It was already dark outside, and it was time to go out for food. Zhuobokabra, who had been wandering in the valley before, rushed into the cave.

They happened to meet these Pinkerton detectives.

Before the detective drew his gun, the two monsters rushed out and rushed towards the detective.

The lantern fell to the ground, and the detective's gun was not fired until he died. His neck was bitten by a monster, while the other monster chewed his thigh.

The few behind followed closely and quickly sucked the head detective into a fuck.

As a warrior who is determined to be a "monster hunter", this detective is also a man who seeks kindness.

The gunshots rang out in the cave, and the adjutant led the other Pinkton detectives to fight these monsters in a desperate battle.

Logically speaking, no matter how terrifying a monster is, as long as it is still a carbon-based life, as long as it can be broken, it will not gain any advantage in front of kinetic energy weapons.

But it is hard to say in the dark environment and close range.

The environment in the cave was narrow, and the detectives carrying horse lanterns were quickly knocked to the ground.

The detectives Pinkerton, who had lost their light, lost the last chance to compete with the monsters.

The cave turned into a one-sided massacre, and the blood-sucking monsters who were hungry for nine days were feasting.

Hanif was chatting with Johnny and the others outside the cave. They raised a bonfire and waited for the one below to come out.

He also heard gunshots and wailings in the cave.

It seems that the people from Pinkerton are really here.

Hanif took Johnny and Li Sifu to pick up the gun and approached the edge of the hole.

He was going to shoot him immediately as long as someone came out of it.

But the gunfire from the cave became weaker and weaker until almost no.

Hanif was about to look over and take a look, but suddenly a burst of rapid footsteps and curses came out of the hole.

A man scolded and shot backwards and rushed out of the cave.

Hanif was just about to shoot him, but there were already "people" who took the lead.

Two or three monsters chased out of the hole, pounced on the man, and began to suck the man's blood.

The light of life in the man's eyes disappeared, and his skin quickly shriveled, like a balloon skin that was pumped.

Seeing this scene, Hanif took a breath and subconsciously touched the gland in his pocket.

After a while, there was no movement in the cave.

Hanif was sure that these Pinkton detectives should be dead. Even if they could escape by chance, they would not dare to come again for a while.

He breathed a sigh of relief, told Donnie and Li Sifu, took a shovel, climbed down the rope, and then followed the mark left by Chen Jianqiu and others to the bottom cave.

Hanif still couldn't stand the temptation of seeing those treasures first, not to mention that Chen Jianqiu made such a promise to him.

"How about it, you can choose whatever you like." Chen Jianqiu seemed very generous.

Hanif was stunned when he looked at the black things. He picked up the ceramic seal from Holmes and looked at the symbol on it.

"Don't worry, this thing is not cheaper than gold jewelry." Chen Jianqiu "kindly" comforted the bounty hunter.

"No, I seem to have seen this symbol somewhere." Hanif looked at the seal repeatedly.

"When did you peek at my notes?" Holmes raised his eyebrows angrily, and the map of the human skin was always in his hands and Chen Jianqiu.

Hanif shook his head and pointed to the direction he came in: "It's right on the wall of the cave over there, beside the mark you left, I'm touching your mark all the way."

Holmes looked surprised. He left the mark, but when he left the mark, why didn't he notice the Aztec symbol?

He was still confused, but Chen Jianqiu had already walked over with a torch.

He walked to the bottom of the stone staircase and on the edge of the cave wall.

Under the fire, someone actually carved Aztec hieroglyphs on it.

He turned his head and looked at Holmes: "What does this symbol mean?"

The expression on Holmes' face was a little awkward: "This is a directional pronoun, meaning,, forward."

Chen Jianqiu was stunned. Isn’t this the same thing as what he had encountered before, the words “500 meters ahead here” written in chalk on the edge of the alley?

The two of them followed the cave wall and touched them all the way until they were about to reach the lakeside.

Holmes found two rows of symbols on the wall again.

"What does this mean?" Chen Jianqiu asked the geologist, "It's not 'Please don't touch'?"

Holmes took out his notebook, turned to the page where he recorded the Aztec text, and glanced at it in the light of a torch.

Then he raised his head and looked at Chen Jianqiu with confusion: "Chen, how do you know?"

Chen Jianqiu was taking the small water bag around his waist to drink water. When he heard Holmes' words, he almost sprayed out the water from his mouth.

"Well, actually, that means the symbol below, and the symbol above means, 'water outlet'."

Holmes said as he approached the wall. He touched the hole wall, looked carefully, and then put his head on the hole wall.

Then, in full view of everyone, he took the shovel from Hanif's hand and began to pull the stone on the hole wall.

"This cave wall is not natural, it was sealed with a stone the day after tomorrow. Because time has passed too long, it is not obvious." Holmes said while pulling it out.

Chen Jianqiu took the shovel from him.

As a senior miner, he is familiar with this job.

The stone quickly fell down sparsely, revealing a hole. The geologist leaned into the upper body and observed the hole wall.

As he pulled back his body, his face was filled with shock.

"These descendants of Aztecs should have dug a water diversion channel from a nearby underground river more than a hundred years ago. There are traces of water flow on the walls of the cave."

Holmes looked at the lake at their feet:
