When Wang Yues party reached the bottom of the ancient well, they were also shocked by this mouth-opening ancient relic. Zhuo Lao Han didnt expect that the water well his family had been drinking from for so many years would turn out to be like this. Im afraid that when he sees those coffins and skeletons, what will he think?

  When they have gathered and set off on the road that Zha Wenbin walked, as soon as they turn that bend, what awaits them will be an earth-shattering shock!

  Wang Yue and Yi Mu were overjoyed, thinking they had finally taken a different path from their predecessors. With a flourish of his hand, the two horses galloped forward, unaware that tens of thousands of vengeful Corpse Worms, leaderless and awaiting revenge, lay in wait for them...

  Zha Wenbin naturally didnt know that he had already paved the way for others, and the wooden raft carrying five people continued to move upstream along the slow current. The space of this stream cave was not smaller than the dry river outside.

  All the way, the vigilant heart did not dare to relax for a moment. This seemingly calm underground cave seemed to be filled with unknown dangers at all times. The Seven-Star Sword in hand was tightly gripped, and Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong were also closely watching the water surface as they rowed the wooden raft, wondering if a giant worm or a huge toad would suddenly pop out of the water.

  It had been half an hour since they entered the left tributary, and at their current speed, they had only traveled five miles. The endless darkness made it hard to continue rowing, but suddenly the spotlight that was supposed to guide them lit up, revealing a vast space in front of them.

  "Be careful! Theres something unusual ahead!"

  Chao Zi and Zhuo Xiong respectively used wooden sticks to prop up the wooden raft, not allowing it to move with the river water. Cha Wenbin stood at the front, using a flashlight to carefully observe the situation in front of him: This was a very large whirlpool, formed by the upstream water flow impacting this place. As long as they passed through the current cave entrance, they would enter this body of water.

  In the center of the whirlpool, something caught Cha Wenbins attention. A large wooden object in the shape of a coffin was spinning around with the water flow. Fortunately, the speed wasnt too fast, and upon closer inspection, Cha Wenbin realized it was indeed a coffin!

  How did a coffin end up here? And its made of wood, too! Given that this place has been uninhabited for ages, an ordinary wooden coffin would have rotted away even if it had come from upstream. Except for the precious golden nanmu wood, no other type of wood could survive being submerged in water for thousands of years.

  Cha Wenbin took out a horizontal ruler from his bosom, which he often carried with him to observe the geomancy, and measured the slope, placing it directly on the wooden raft.

  There is a bubble in the middle of the level, and it suddenly moved down, which proves that they are walking all the way up against the current, and the slope is not low. Zha Wenbin estimated the distance from the well to their current location, and based on this slope, it is very likely that their current position is already much higher than the villages ground elevation.

  Chaozi leaned against the wooden raft and asked: "Wenbin brother? Whats been discovered?"

  Cha Wenbin looked at the coffin spinning in circles, seemingly having to pass by here, and now retreating was impossible. Since he had chosen this path, he had to follow it through.

  "Its nothing, just a coffin, lets keep a distance from it when we row past later."

  The Shui Tang was a circular shape, the stone wall around it was far away, and the light swept past, but it was really unclear. However, these two were bold and had experienced life-and-death tests. Cha Wenbin made a forward gesture, and the two of them each pushed their oars against the stone wall, and the wooden raft slowly entered the Shui Tang.

  Just as they entered, the raft was advancing along the periphery according to Cha Wenbins previous instructions. Under the influence of the swirling water flow, Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong were using their wooden paddles with great effort to adjust the direction, carefully sticking to the stone wall.

  Because the water situation here is a whirlpool, at this moment, they have become the direction of the downstream, and the wooden stick can only prevent the raft from hitting the stone wall.

  Cha Wenbin carefully explored this pool of water, the space here is about the size of a football field, round and very regular, nothing strange can be seen.

  As they were halfway there, Zhuo Xiong suddenly called out: "Look, theres another coffin over there!"

  As expected, there was another coffin spinning in place where the light from Zhu Xiongs lamp shone. Cha Wenbin was surprised that he hadnt discovered the other coffin earlier.

  He had Chaozi steady the raft and stood on it to carefully examine the two coffins. After a while, he understood.

  These two coffins are almost identical in shape, size and material. One coffin is facing the entrance they came from, while the other is facing the exit at the other end. The two coffins are on the same straight line, so when he looked out of the hole, the one behind was blocked by the one in front. With the light already severely insufficient, the one behind was missed.

  From a distance, the two coffins are distributed at two points that are not far from their respective exit positions. If a horizontal line is drawn through the center of the water pool and perpendicular to the straight line between the two points, the entire water pool will be divided into two semicircles, with the two coffins located exactly at the midpoint of each radius.

  Zha Wenbin suddenly had a bad premonition, urging Chaozi to quickly get the wooden raft out of this area. In this gloomy space, two coffins suddenly appeared and floated in front of you, which would make anyone feel creepy.

  Fortunately, in these days, they have seen quite a few coffins in this ghostly place, and they are not so scared that their legs are soft. Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong, one after the other, swung the oars in their hands, and the wooden raft sailed towards the exit at its fastest speed.

  As he watched, the exit was less than a meter away, and those two coffins were thrown behind him. Cha Wenbins heart, which had been stuck in his throat, finally put down half of it. Just one more step forward, just one step, and he could leave this place.

  Its often like this, when things go against your wishes. Just as youre about to realize your own ideas, a 180-degree turn comes along, but this time the turn is enough to make the three of them remember for life.

  The raft was originally going with the current, and when it reached this exit, it naturally became a countercurrent. When Zha Wenbin found that Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong had been waving their paddles for half a year, the raft not only didnt move forward but also retreated backward. His face started to turn pale, and just twenty meters behind them was the coffin.

  Chaozi had exhausted all his strength in this cold and gloomy underground river, desperately rowing the boat. He also felt that he was not making progress but instead moving backward, getting farther and farther away from the exit. Suddenly panicked, he shouted: "Xiangzi, can you add more strength?"

  Zhuo Xiong is also having a hard time, his arms are already numb and cant be lifted up. The wooden raft is still drifting backwards. While paddling with the wooden stick in his hand, he said: "Ive been exhausting myself to paddle, but it seems like Im not making any progress! Wen Bin, whats going on?"

  Zha Wenbin was also busy at this moment, holding a large wooden stick in the water and stirring it up. He stared at the wooden raft, which couldnt get out, and he was anxious in his heart. He picked up a wooden stick with one hand and joined the rowing team, panting while saying: "The complexity of the water here exceeds our imagination, lets add some strength, as long as we get out of this mouth its okay." After finishing speaking, he continued to swing...

  After half a time, the three men were all exhausted on the wooden raft, with only their breath left. The wooden raft did not move forward, but instead retreated ten meters away. It was not that they wanted to give up, but at this moment, they really had no strength left.

  "Lets take a break first," panted Zhang Wenbin. "We cant die here, so lets just circle around for now and come back when weve regained our strength."

  The wooden raft floated away in the direction of what looked like a coffin, but it was still some distance away. Although Cha Wenbin had lost his strength, his eyes were still effective, and he continued to pay attention to the movement of the wooden raft.

  The wooden raft carrying five people incredibly drew an arc in the direction of the water flow, bypassing the coffin, and when it reached the position of the coffin behind them, it changed direction again, drawing another arc to bypass the open coffin they saw, and returned to its original point!

  When Chaozi and Zhuo Xiong found themselves back again, they were already struggling to sit up from the wooden raft. Whats going on? Drifted around in a circle and came back?

  What really shocked Cha Wenbin was not that it returned to the distant point, but that this wooden raft followed the middle rope connecting the coffins in an "S"-shaped trajectory, cleverly bypassing the two coffins before returning to the distant point. To think that water is formless, in such a windless and interference-free waters, how can a stationary piece of wood move on its own in an "S" shape? This is absolutely beyond the bounds of reason!
