As they were talking, the boat had already rowed towards the cave.
The entrance of the cave was large and circular. One could even see traces of someone repairing the entrance.
It didn't look like a natural cave.
Instead, it looked like a man-made cave.
However, this cave seemed to be quite old.
In ancient times, it was not easy to dig out such a large cave.
"Remember, don't speak loudly and don't look into the water. I'm here to protect you.”
At this time, the boatman reminded everyone again.
The boatman's skills were very good. The river seemed calm, but it was actually turbulent below.
However, he was still able to sail the ship smoothly into the cave.
As soon as he entered the cave, he could feel a cold aura engulfing his entire body.
Even on a hot day, one could feel the chill.
Moreover, it formed a sharp contrast with the river surface outside.
The sun was shining brightly outside, but it was pitch-black inside.
The pitch-black darkness, coupled with the cold chill, made one's imagination run wild.
"Can you turn on the flashlight?" Wu Xie was the first to ask.
The boatman replied,"Yes, but don't shine it into the water."”
Hearing this, Wu Xie and the others hurriedly took out a flashlight from the bag.
"Brother Li, don't you need a flashlight?”
Wu Xie asked when he saw Wu Li sitting on the edge of the boat indifferently.
"No need. I can see it no matter how dark it is," said Wu Li.”
"You can continue to brag." Wu Xie said speechlessly.
He didn't believe that he could still see in such a dark place without a flashlight.
However, Wu Xie soon realized that other than Wu Li, the other young man did not use a flashlight.
"Do you need a flashlight?"
Wu Xie handed his flashlight to the young man.
However, he didn't expect that the little brother wouldn't even lift his eyes. He was still looking straight ahead, causing Wu Xie to bump into a wall.
"Third Uncle, who is this little brother?”Wu Xie asked curiously.
"I'm not sure." Wu Sansheng shook his head and said,"A friend in Jianghu introduced him."”
Seeing that his third uncle was also unclear, Wu Xie did not pay attention to his little brother.
Why did he have to stick to it and ask for a snub?
With the torchlight, everyone naturally began to look around the cave.
This cave was very strange because it was a regular cave with very flat stone walls on both sides.
There was a circular top above his head.
Many craters appeared on the stone walls above and on both sides.
However, one could still tell that this cave was clearly a man-made cave.
They didn't know how deep the cave was, but the water inside looked very deep. The entire cave was about three meters wide.
Under the control of the boatman, everyone's boat leaned against the stone wall and slowly moved forward along the current.
However, it was summer now, so the water level had risen a lot.
As long as he stood up and stretched out his hand, he could grab the rock at the top.
"It's round and square, a typical pirate cave. It seems like he's an expert.”Wu Sansheng said.
Wu Xie used the flashlight to carefully observe the patterns on the rocks and the traces of water erosion.
"This Thief Cave has been here for quite some time." Wu Xie said.
"It's almost two thousand years old," said Wu Li.”
"That should be a hole dug during the Warring States Period, right?”Wu Xie exclaimed.
"Otherwise, why would it be called the Silk Manuscript of the Warring States Period?" asked Wu Li.”
"That's true." Wu Xie replied.
Although their discussion was very quiet, the boatman was still quite capable.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have become a corpse transporter in the past.
After all, they often had to walk in the wilderness.
His ears were much more sensitive than ordinary people.
"Everyone seems to be an expert. Your guess is correct. This is a bandit cave.”the boatman said.
"You seem to see people like us often?" Wu Xie asked curiously.”
"Haha! This was the original location of the Lu Kingdom's dragon vein on Mount Qimeng. There were countless ancient tombs on the mountain, so it naturally attracted countless people.”
Although the boatman came from Xiangxi, he had already taken root here and was relatively familiar with the situation around here.
"Exactly! You don't know that there's a mountain near us that has been emptied.”The old coachman said.
"Don't you have such thoughts?" Wu Xie asked.”
"This is a technical job. We are just boorish people. Why would we dare to gamble with our lives?”the boatman said.
Wu Xie was not very clear about this.
After all, it was his first time entering the dueling ring, so he only knew about the situation inside the ring from his grandfather's notes.
There were also Pan Zi and Wu Sansheng's complaints, so he didn't feel much.
However, Wu Li and the others felt the same way about the boatman's words.
The ancient tomb looked simple, but it was filled with all kinds of traps and hidden weapons. There were even some unclean things.
Even Wu Sansheng, who was a veteran in the martial arts world, did not dare to say that he could retreat safely every time he fought.
This was also the reason why Wu Sansheng had never agreed to let Wu Xie join the fight.
This was also why Pan Zi wanted to test the little brother.
Because in their line of work, one's head was tied to one's belt.
There was no room for any mistakes, or they would lose their lives.
However, Wu Xie was a little confused after hearing his words.
Just as she was about to ask, Wu Li grabbed her hand and shook her head slightly, as if she knew what Wu Xie was going to ask.
"The more you talk, the more you lose." Wu Li whispered.
Wu Xie nodded. Although he was puzzled, he still swallowed it down.
He actually wanted to ask, if he was afraid of death, why would he take such a path? Wasn't this contradictory?
Although Wu Xie didn't really believe it, he knew that the corpse cave was very dangerous after hearing Pan Zi's description.
At least Wu Xie himself was a little scared. After all, he had to pass by a place where there were dead people.
"Do you want to ask, if you are afraid of death, why do you still take this waterway?”
He did not expect the boatman to ask about it himself.
Wu Sansheng glanced at Wu Li and Pan Zi.
Although it was just a simple sentence, they could tell that this boatman was more difficult to deal with than they had imagined.
She knew that he was an old fox.
Otherwise, how could he have guessed Wu Xie's thoughts so quickly?
"Hehe, this back mountain has been visited countless times since ancient times. It has basically been emptied.”The coachman echoed.
"You're right," Wu Sansheng said with a smile.”
He pulled Wu Xie and asked him to speak less. There were many examples of people who spoke too much and made mistakes.
They were now far away from their sphere of influence. No one knew who they would provoke.
If he offended these two with his words, reporting it to Copper would be enough to make them suffer.
Seeing that everyone seemed to not want to discuss anymore, the two of them were happy to be idle.
However, after a short silence, the surroundings became extremely quiet.
Only the sound of flowing water lingered in his ears.
The quiet and dark environment made everyone feel uncomfortable.
