Chapter 118 Skeletons and Treasure Chests

Through the faint light from the tinder, Jiang Youzhen discovered that the cave was actually very large and extremely empty all around.

"What kind of place is this? It looks creepy." Gao Shuisheng shrank his neck. It was quiet all around and he was scared.

The two stood in the huge cave. Jiang Youzhen felt it for a while before pointing to the narrow cave entrance in front and said, "The wind is coming from over there. Let's go over and take a look!"

Seeing Gao Shuisheng trembling, Jiang Youzhen shouted coldly: "What are you afraid of? There is nothing here."

The entrance of this cave is very small, and can only accommodate one person. Jiang Youzhen followed Gao Shuisheng into the cave, and found that it was a cave within a cave. However, this cave is very small, and you can see the end at a glance.

There was a small exit ahead, and the darkness seemed to be a monster with its mouth wide open, attacking the two of them. Gao Shuisheng swallowed and asked, "Still going forward?"

Where is this nesting doll? So many holes? Jiang Youzhen glanced at the other side of the darkness and suddenly heard the sound of water.

As long as there is water, there is an exit. "Go ahead and have a look. I can hear the sound of water. If it doesn't work, go back."

"Huh? There's a big box in the corner in front." Gao Shuisheng suddenly pointed to a corner.

"What? Where?" Jiang Youzhen's eyes lit up, and the martial arts TV series she had watched in her previous life immediately filled her mind. What's in the cave? There must be martial arts secrets! There must be treasures!

When he saw a box that was half a meter long, wide and sixty centimeters high, Jiang Youzhen took two steps forward.

"Ah~ There's a skeleton!" Gao Shuisheng screamed, and suddenly he heard the sound of flapping wings.

The two were startled and looked up, only to find a swarm of bats flying out of the cave.

Jiang Youzhen suddenly broke out in sweat on his forehead. He pushed Gao Shuisheng down and waited until there was no movement above before he got up.

Gao Shuisheng got up and hid behind Jiang Youzhen, grabbing her sleeve. Jiang Youzhen then realized that he was only an eight-year-old child and was really scared when he saw the skeleton.

But he was afraid, and so was she! Looking at the white skeleton leaning against the mountain wall, with a dagger stuck in its ribs, anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on.

"He's just a skeleton, what's there to be afraid of?" Jiang Youzhen said in a nonchalant tone, but her trembling voice somewhat revealed her fear.

At this moment, her eyes fell on the iron box that the skeleton had rested on with one of its arms. It must be held in its arms before death, so there must be treasures inside.

"My dear brother! You are dead already, there is no use doing this, why don't you let me see it!" Jiang Youzhen said as he was about to step forward, but was pulled back by someone from behind.

"Don't go up there. It's scary."

"Get out of here, you coward!" This is a chance to make a fortune! You must not let it go.

Jiang Youzhen first used stones to explore the way, and found that there was no mechanism, so he threw the rope in his hand over. There was a hook at the top, which just hooked over.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Youzhen hooked it for a long time, but there was no response at all. It's very heavy! It seems there are a lot of treasures inside.

Jiang Youzhen rubbed his hands and rushed over quickly without any hesitation.

She snatched the box from the skeleton's arm and moved it aside with great effort. At this moment, she didn't feel scared at all, she just wanted to make a fortune.

Thinking of Gao Shuisheng behind her, she felt that he was a bit of a hindrance. If he wasn't there, she would just put him in the space.

Looking down, I found that one of the skeleton's arms was still on the box, and I suddenly felt a chill.

"Look at you, you can't let it go even after you die." Jiang Youzhen said as he picked up a stone nearby and hit the rusty copper lock several times.

Gao Shuisheng suddenly felt that Jiang Youzhen was scarier than the skeleton. This person was really cruel! Even the skeleton couldn't beat her.

Jiang Youzhen had just opened the lid of the box a little when suddenly a cluster of golden light emerged from inside.

"Snap!" She slammed it shut.

"How is it? What's in the box?" Gao Shuisheng's curiosity was also aroused.

"I said there's nothing in the box, do you believe it?" Jiang Youzhen turned and looked at Gao Shuisheng.

Gao Shuisheng looked doubtful: Do you think I believe it?

"There's nothing. If you don't believe me, come and see!" Jiang Youzhen waved at Gao Shuisheng, and Gao Shuisheng really went over.

The box was suddenly opened. Gao Shuisheng leaned in to take a look and found that it was indeed empty.

"Pah!" The box was closed again. Jiang Youzhen said, "I said there is no such thing. Do you believe me?"

Gao Shuisheng was wondering why an empty box had to be locked and why the skeleton looked so precious?

The box was opened again, "Look, there's really nothing!"

Then it was covered again, and then opened again. Then it was covered again, and then opened again.

"Look, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Gao Shuisheng: ...You are quite good at playing~

Seeing Gao Shuisheng looking away, Jiang Youzhen breathed a sigh of relief. The moment she opened it, she had transferred the things inside into the space. With the golden glow, she knew what treasures were inside without even looking. She would count them after returning, feeling very happy.

Fortunately, she had her back to Gao Shuisheng, so he probably didn't notice. However, the storage space had to touch the object to put it in, which was very inconvenient.

"System! Improve it next time!"

System: Moving bricks, do not disturb...

"Did this person also fall from up there and so can't get out?" Gao Shuisheng couldn't help but think of themselves. If they couldn't get out, would they also starve to death here?

"It's possible. Maybe he was seriously injured before, so he couldn't climb up?" Jiang Youzhen also thought so. He accidentally rolled here, and maybe he was being chased by someone. He was seriously injured and couldn't climb up, so he died here.

But how could he take a small box of treasure with him before he died? Jiang Youzhen thought about it and decided that there was no need to figure it out. Anyway, it was true that he had gotten a bargain now.

She stood up and walked towards the narrow cave again with Gao Shuisheng. This time, the cave was even smaller than before, so they both had to bend slightly to enter.

Soon they reached another cave entrance, and they discovered that this was actually an underground river. The gurgling sound of water and the dark surface of the water made their heartbeats speed up.

"There is no road here, and we can't wade through the underground river. Let's go back! Let's see if we can climb up the cliff." Gao Shuisheng was a little scared, thinking that the visible cliff was much safer than the invisible river bottom.

"Then let's go back!" Jiang Youzhen had water-repellent beads, so there was no problem for her to go down, but she was also a little afraid of this underground river.

Besides, I don’t know where the exit is. If it’s in the wilderness far away from Qinghe Village, I don’t know how long it will take to get back.

Just as the two were about to return the same way, Jiang Youzhen glanced and suddenly found something on the water that caught her attention.

"Wait!" Jiang Youzhen took a step forward and fished out the thing in the water. After seeing it clearly, she shouted in surprise.
