Chapter 6 The Golden Candle

This dark hole suddenly gave me strength.

I dug a hole in the wall with my hands, and kicked it up with my feet. When the flashlight shined on it, I saw a huge red candle in front of me. In the darkness, the huge candle was terribly gorgeous.

I walked around the candle and found that the wick of the candle was as big as my fist.

I suddenly had an urge to rush up and light it, but unfortunately I didn't bring a lighter.

After exploring around, I found a few more holes of different sizes. I scolded a few words, who dug this maze, it's really wicked.

After muttering a few words, I subconsciously looked up again, grass, there was another hole on the top of my head.

This hole is at least one meter above my head, and I can't reach it at all.

I looked around at several caves of different sizes, and I didn't know how to choose.

In the end, I still aimed at the hole above my head. I climbed up from below. The surrounding holes of different sizes are most likely dead holes.

But how to climb to the cave above the head?

Suddenly, I accidentally focused my eyes on the extremely bright candle.This candle is 1.7 or [-] centimeters at least, and I am about [-] meters tall. With this candle, it is not a problem to climb up.

I ran to the candle excitedly, it was my life-saving straw.

Holding the candle in my hands, I raised my strength to pull it upwards, and I felt that it was like a pin that held the sea, completely motionless.Letting go of the candle, I looked around the candle with a somewhat uncertain expression. Is this really a candle?

How is it as hard and cold as steel?

I lit the flashlight, found a stone, and scratched the candle, and a layer of dirt was scraped off. Looking at the scratch, I was stunned, it was bright and golden.

Is it gold?

My heart was beating wildly all of a sudden, if such a big piece of gold was sold in the gold market...

I can't imagine.

Fortunately, I quickly came to my senses, now is not the time to think about this question, but, how do I get to the top of the cave?The only thing I can rely on is this golden candle, but I can't move it.

I pushed it in desperation, and the huge candle moved.

It moved a few centimeters along the front.

There is a door!

I was overjoyed, and pushed forward with all my strength, and the candle slowly moved towards the opening of the hole.

I looked down, and it turned out that there were three stone gears at the bottom of the candle, and these three gears sprang out bright and lovely little sparks in the friction.

However, this Martian flower is a bit creepy, faint blue.

Especially in this dark night, the sparkling flowers are like rows of ferocious fangs.

I finally aimed the golden candle at the hole on the top, and after a visual inspection, I was absolutely sure to climb up.

I took a breath, and was about to jump on the top of the candle, when suddenly, a burst of fire burst out from the dark hole in the top, which startled me.

The tongue of flame hit the candle wick and lit the candle.

In an instant, the faint blue fire light illuminated the entire space.

I was stunned, my body involuntarily turned into a puff of air-conditioning, what's going on?I raised my head, and the entrance of the black hole turned out to be a mechanism.

I swallowed my saliva, the road was gone, what should I do?

The huge golden candle burned under my gaze, and made a crackling sound in this dead space, as if cremating a corpse.

I was frightened for a moment.

I came to my senses, run away!I always have an uneasy feeling.

However, when I looked back for the hole that came up from below, there was no hole, and there was a piece of solid land around.

How can it be?

My body is covered with sweat, and I look carefully, but there is still no sweat, my eyes are not dazzled.

"How does this candle burn so fast?" I glanced up at the huge candle, which was almost burnt out.

The huge golden candle produced strands of golden yellow wax oil as it burned, and these wax oils flowed on the ground, quickly like a snake, scalding traces of golden dancing and silver snakes.

These traces are filled with wax oil, and there is a sound of boiling.

This is gold water?

When the last drop of candle burnt out, the ground began to shake...

I triggered the mechanism.

I thought there was no more reasonable explanation than this, and my tense heart relaxed.

The amplitude of the ground was not very large. Layers of yellow sand fell from the top of my head and covered my body. I raised my head and ate the dirt all over my face.

I quickly avoided the corner, hoping not to collapse, otherwise I really have to confess here.

The vibration lasted for nearly 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the vibration stopped, and the world was eerily quiet.I touched the dirt on my head, is there moisture?

"Rumble rumble..."

When I was suspicious, there was a sudden thunder, which made my hair stand on end in fright.

thunder?

I looked up and saw that a pit had collapsed where the candle had been. I slowly leaned over it, and there was a sunken step, with a faint yellow light seeping out from inside.

Except for the four openings, there is no way around at all.I gritted my teeth, I have nothing to be afraid of, I am already in a desperate situation, the worst thing is to die, I have lived too useless in this life, and I have earned my courage before I die, and my life can be regarded as full of regrets.

The next one jumped up, stepped on the stone steps fearlessly, and walked down step by step.

Leaning over the stone gate, it turned out to be another dead end inside.

Below the stone steps is a room of more than 60 square meters. I followed the light of the fire and saw eight red-headed candles hanging upside down on the ceiling of the cave. The dark blue flames rushed downwards, which is not scientific at all.

Very weird!

Under the firelight, a table of eight immortals was placed in the center, and the faint blue firelight focused on the center of the table of eight immortals.

I walked over and approached the table.On that table, there was an old sheepskin drawing and a scroll.

I can't wait to open the picture scroll, is the escape route in the picture scroll?

Untie the scroll, and what comes into view is an old man in a coir raincoat pounding medicine in front of a pill furnace. This old man is energetic and lifelike.

However, there is no instruction on how to escape.

It's broken.

However, these things should be worth a lot of money, right?Without hesitation, I put the picture scroll into my pocket, and reached out to pick up the sheepskin scroll. There were some ancient characters on it, which I didn't know, so I kept it in my pocket as well.

Finally, I set my sights on the table of the Eight Immortals. Two legs of this table have been rotten, but I know that this table is definitely a treasure.

However, I couldn't put it in my arms.

As soon as I lifted the table, with the faint light of the fire, there was actually a figure of a pill furnace engraved under the table.

Does the owner of this cave like alchemy?

I can't take this table out in one piece, and I don't know if I can get out safely.I broke off a foot, used it as self-defense, and then returned the same way.

When I stepped on the stone steps, I suddenly felt dizzy, I don't know what's going on?Could it be that faint blue flame is poisonous?

I didn't have time to think about it, I just wanted to leave quickly, and I felt a beast behind me with its huge mouth open to me.

I stepped on the stone steps and climbed up quickly. Suddenly I stepped on the air and lost consciousness instantly.

When I woke up again, I was lying on a broken bed and could smell musty.

Where is this place?
