I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 573: Secret Cave

"What do you know?" Gu Chaoxi remained skeptical.

Seeing that she looked somewhat distrustful, Zhou Zhaozhao didn't take it too seriously. After all, not many people would believe this if she told them about it.

"I know there is a hidden cave on the other side of the mountain near the Lake Center Pavilion, and there is a secret passage inside."

After saying this, Gu Chaoxi stood up and looked at Pei Yan.

Both of them were in disbelief.

Pei Yan looked at Zhou Zhaozhao. The little kid looked serious and didn't seem to be lying.

He tried to probe: "I'm afraid most people in the village know about this cave, right?"

"No, I'm the only one who knows that."

Zhou Zhaozhao was very sure.

"Then can you take us to see it?" Gu Chaoxi pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Zhou Zhaozhao.

He didn't seem to believe that the two people in front of him believed what he said, but if he told this to others, no one else would believe it.

"I can take you there, just follow me!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and ran to the other side of the road, not forgetting to look back to see if the two people had caught up with him.

Gu Chaoxi lowered his eyes. Now everyone else was helping to prepare tributes, so they definitely didn’t have time to go with them to the cave.

So the two of them went to check out the situation first, and as for the rest, they would talk about it later.

So, Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi immediately followed Zhou Zhaozhao's steps.

You can reach the lake faster by taking a detour from the other side of the village.

Walk along the side of the lake and you will reach the foot of the mountain.

There was no obvious road here, so the three of them walked through the weeds.

Zhou Zhaozhao was holding a branch that he had picked up when he left the village. As he walked, he used the branch to pull away the weeds that blocked the road.

Now that we were at the foot of the mountain, our pace gradually slowed down.

Gu Chaoxi looked around. The mountain here was full of trees, weeds, and various plants. It didn't look like there was a cave.

The only thing is that there are some bare spots on the right side, which might be the reason for its existence.

Zhou Zhaozhao turned around and saw that both of them had stopped, and raised his chin towards them.

"What are you two doing? Follow me!"

As he spoke, he used the branch in his hand to cut the weeds nearby.

"Coming." Pei Yan responded, holding Gu Chaoxi's hand and continuing to follow.

Soon, they arrived at the place Zhou Zhaozhao mentioned, and there was indeed a hidden cave there.

The ground at the entrance of the cave is very smooth, and it has even been specially cleaned, so it looks relatively clean.

There are many vines hanging above the entrance of the cave, barely covering it, but if you look closely you can still find the cave.

It was pitch black inside, but they didn't have any lighting equipment with them.

Zhou Zhaozhao turned around and saw the two people holding hands. She rolled her eyes with some disdain.

"It's so dark, do you remember the way inside?"

Gu Chaoxi looked inside, tilted his head and listened carefully.

It was very quiet in the cave, with no other sound except the occasional dripping water.

Obviously there is no one inside now.

"When did you discover this cave?"

She didn't rush in, but instead began to look around the cave.

The location of this cave makes it impossible to see what's happening over there in the village, nor can you see much of the lake.

Therefore, unless the people in the village come here on purpose, it is unlikely that they will discover that there is a cave under the mountain.

Zhou Zhaozhao pursed his lips, lowered his head and kicked the ground twice, swinging the branch in his hand.

"I discovered this half a year ago. At that time, I ran out for fun and came here to pick some wild fruits, and I saw it."

At that time, Zhou Zhaozhao thought she had found some incredible secret base.

But after he got a torch and went in, he found that this cave was unusual.

You can keep walking deeper and deeper into here, but after walking a certain distance, it will become a bit narrow.

But perhaps it was artificially chiseled on both sides so that it would not hit the stone wall.

Walking along this cave, you will come to a stone wall door. The stone wall door is closed and there is no way to push it open.

Zhou Zhaozhao knew that what she had discovered was not a natural cave, but a place that had been processed by humans.

Maybe, behind that door is something he doesn't want to face.

He was so frightened that he immediately ran away with the torch.

I never came here again.

"So, you only came here once half a year ago, and you have no idea what this place has become like since then?"

"Yes." He nodded.

Gu Chaoxi stood at the entrance of the cave and looked inside. It was pitch black. Not only was there nothing inside, but there was also a heavy, damp and gloomy aura.

It doesn't look like a good place.

"Then why do you think this cave is related to the Dragon God?"

"Intuition." Zhou Zhaozhao said seriously.

Although she couldn't say why, Zhou Zhaozhao just thought so.

Gu Chaoxi sighed. Although Zhou Zhaozhao had no evidence, since the plane presented this cave, it must be a little unusual.

She and Pei Yan looked at each other and had no intention of going in now.

Two people is still too dangerous.

"How about this, let's come back tomorrow with good things."

"okay."

Raising his hand and patting Zhou Zhaozhao on the head, Gu Chaoxi took a step back and said, "Let's go back. We have to have dinner soon."

Sometimes time flies by so easily.

Zhou Zhaozhao looked at Gu Chaoxi repeatedly to make sure that what she said was true. Then she smiled and led the way again.

"Okay, let's go back then."

He seemed to be hiding something.

Gu Chaoxi turned his head and looked at Pei Yan, then raised his hand and pointed at Zhou Zhaozhao in front of him and whispered to him.

"I think something is wrong with Zhou Zhaozhao. He must have some secrets."

Pei Yan slightly agreed.

Judging from Zhou Zhaozhao’s behavior, even if he really liked Luo Fangfang, he would not lead Gu Chaoxi to this cave.

Unless Zhou Zhaozhao suspected the Dragon God sacrifice, but knew that no one would listen to her because of her age, she needed an adult to discover the matter.

Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan were the adults who were discovered by Zhou Zhaozhao to be suspicious of the matter.

Everyone had their own thoughts, so they returned to Xianxi Village.

When they were approaching the village, Zhou Zhaozhao seemed to remember something and turned to look at Gu Chaoxi.

"You don't believe in the existence of the Dragon God either?"

She thought for a moment and replied, “If it is a real God, he will not sacrifice his believers.”

Zhou Zhaozhao nodded and climbed back over the courtyard wall.

She laughed: "Why don't you go through the front door?"

Pei Yan took a look and then looked away: "Maybe his family doesn't want him to come out and cause trouble during this period of time."

Come to think of it, if the people in the village knew that his son actually questioned the Dragon God, who knows what would happen.
