So, I can be sure of one thing: eight deaths are needed to quell this situation, and that's also true. And the nine coffins that appeared out of nowhere in the square that night meant something was gradually happening, perhaps evolving into something that would require nine deaths!
Of course, these are just my guesses. If you want to know the truth, you must find the source of the matter, which is the nine coffins!
I took a deep breath, told Feng Ling and the male police officer to relax, and then continued walking inside.
This sewer was made of a unique stone, arched in shape, and a bit damp on the sides and top. After all, there was filthy, smelly water underfoot. I'd drawn a water-repellent charm and stuck it to my feet to prevent getting stained by the stinking water. Under the illumination of the flashlight, we passed one arched waterway after another. The further we went in, the more waterways there were, spreading out in all directions.
Moreover, it is becoming more and more winding. If someone who does not understand the terrain of this waterway goes deep into it, it is easy to get lost.
Three arched waterways suddenly appeared before our eyes. It was pitch black inside, so dark that even with my Wisdom Eyes I couldn't see clearly. No one knew what was inside. The male police officer had already retreated in fear, and he even urged Feng Ling to go back with him. "It's already great to have explored this far tonight. Let's come back tomorrow with more people during the day."
Feng Ling didn't answer, but looked at me, as if waiting for my answer.
I frowned slightly, then spread my hands and said, "Since I'm here, I have to go in and take a look. You guys go back first."
Feng Ling smiled helplessly and said, "I knew you would say that." Then he turned to the male police officer and said, "How about this? You go back upstairs and report the situation here to the director and the others. Tell them that we will definitely be up there before 10 o'clock this evening."
It's eight o'clock in the evening now, and there are still two hours left. I think it's okay.
The male policeman nodded: "Officer Feng, you must come back!"
"Well, you should be careful too." Feng Ling nodded.
So we let the male policeman go back on his own and disappear far away in this empty, deserted, suffocating sewer.
"So... there are three waterway entrances ahead. Should we go in together or separately?" I said, pointing to the three entrances ahead.
"Are you testing this officer's courage?" Feng Ling seemed to be annoyed by what I said, and said righteously: "Even if I am a woman, my courage is not necessarily less than yours. Let's go our separate ways!"
I smiled and said, "Okay. Hold the walkie-talkie and keep it open. By the way, this is an amulet, use it for self-protection." I took out two amulets from my bag and gave them to her.
Feng Ling took it and inserted it directly into her breasts. She glanced at me and went into the waterway entrance on the right.
I was completely confused, so I didn't think much of it and went into the left channel, leaving the middle channel clear. If Feng Ling and I didn't find anything useful on the left and right sides, we would have to go back and enter the middle channel to investigate.
I'm actually quite worried about Feng Ling. Although she's a police officer and isn't afraid of ordinary deaths, she's terrified of ghosts. The last time she was in the deserted village was a prime example. If a ghost suddenly appeared, I couldn't imagine how Feng Ling would look.
Walking alone in this suffocating waterway at night, with pitch black surroundings, and water drops dripping from my head from time to time, hitting the ground with a harsh sound, it was really creepy.
Fortunately, there was a walkie-talkie. After about three minutes, Feng Ling finally couldn't help it and said to me on the walkie-talkie: "Hello..."
I didn't say anything.
"Hello!"
I still won’t say it.
"Hey! Xu Fei! Stop pretending to be dead! Can you hear me?"
Isn't that what you call courage? I'm just holding back my laughter and not saying anything. See what you can do to me.
It seemed that she was really anxious. I could feel that Feng Ling seemed to smash the walkie-talkie against the wall. I only heard a "sizzling" sound of electromagnetic waves from the opposite side, followed by a resentful and miserable laugh of a woman, and then I heard Feng Ling's scream of "Ahhh", and then... then there was no sound.
I was stunned. What happened?
