Chapter 419: Hanging Ladder
The atmosphere froze for a moment, and a few more stones fell from the stone wall next to it, and the sound of falling was very harsh in the empty cavern, as if to foretell the fate of each of them.
Gu Shaoze turned around. looked at the falling stones, and became even more anxious: "Don't mention her to me, let me tell you An Mengyi, now that we are all in this place, we are also grasshoppers on the boat for a day, we can't go up, don't think about it or go out!"
"It looks like our negotiations have broken down. An Mengyi said, taking a step forward, and the people following behind her also moved slightly.
"What do you want to do!" Gu Shaoze pointed at An Mengyi, he glared, and held up the ancient book in his hand: "I'll tell you, don't act rashly!"
Several more large rocks fell from the cave, more than before, and more than at least the ones that had fallen.
"Put down the treasure chest and the ancient books, and you go. An Mengyi said quickly.
"What should I do if I let go?" Gu Shaoze's eyes were full of viciousness: "Let's go first, the treasure chest is placed here, and this book will be given to you after it goes up!" I must ensure my safety, otherwise you won't want to get anything!"
"Put the book down, and take the treasure chest. An Mengyi said.
At this time, Gu Zhan, who had been standing behind Gu Shaoze and had not spoken, spoke: "Let's take the books first, as for this box, it's not too late to exchange it when you go up." ”
An Mengyi hesitated for a second or two, and before she could speak, she heard Song Sizhe's voice: "Okay, but let our people go up first." ”
Gu Shaoze looked at the broken bridge, didn't know what he thought, chuckled twice, put the treasure chest on the ground, pushed it aside, and then retreated to the original place: "Okay, it's okay." ”
An Mengyi looked at Song Sizhe puzzled, not understanding what he meant.
Song Sizhe said to An Mengyi: "Let them go up first, guard at the door, and watch these two people after they go up, don't let them run away." ”
When the "red-eyed man" behind him heard this, he still didn't speak, but just looked at An Mengyi.
These people were rescued by An Mengyi, and at this moment they were already convinced of An Mengyi, at least this woman would not ignore their safety when she was in danger.
"Go up, there's the exit above. An Mengyi said to them.
Several people nodded, and silently climbed the hanging ladder. They moved quickly and climbed up in a few minutes.
Gu Xian and Gu Shaoze kept paying attention to the top, and when they saw that there was no accident at the people above, they immediately climbed up.
After all, the two of them have never exercised professionally, and it is still very difficult to climb such a high place. After climbing less than a third, the ancient tomb began to fall stones again, but this time it was different from just now, the small stones fell first, and they didn't alarm everyone, but they still smashed on Song Sizhe's shoulder, and he realized that something was wrong.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Song Sizhe shouted, urging the two people above.
An Mengyi looked at Song Sizhe's nervous appearance and asked, "What's wrong?"
Song Sizhe stretched out his hand to catch the falling stone: "The ancient tomb is going to be angry." ”
As soon as the words fell, the entire ancient tomb suddenly shook, from the slight vibration at the beginning to the unsteady standing in the back. Song Sizhe pushed An Mengyi: "Hurry up, you go up too!"
As soon as Song Sizhe pushed An Mengyi away, a stone slammed down, and Song Sizhe couldn't dodge and hit his arms and legs.
An Mengyi turned her head and saw the person behind her fall to the ground, and hurriedly ran to his side again: "Let's go together!"
Song Sizhe sat on the ground, shook his head and pushed An Mengyi: "Hurry up! You don't have to worry about me! I know my body!"
"No!" An Mengyi put Song Sizhe's other arm up, and was just about to help him to the suspension ladder, when there was another shaking, and the two of them fell together.
Gu Shaoze, Gu Yan, father and son, climbed up with the help of the "red-eyed man". It's not that they want to help the two of them much, it's just that if they don't go up, there are two obstacles, An Mengyi and Song Sizhe, and there is no way for them to come up.
Gu Shaoze and Gu Zhan sat on the side panting, looking around. Surrounded by dense woods, looking up is no longer a dark cave, they have come out of the ancient tomb.
An Mengyi helped Song Sizhe to the side of the escalator, it was not easy to help a person with an injured arm to go up, and now the situation is critical, and the sky and earth are shaking, which is even more difficult.
"Miss An!"
An Mengyi looked up, it was the people who were behind her just now, lying at the entrance of the cave and looking down.
"Miss An, hurry up!"
An Mengyi listened to their shouts, first let Song Sizhe's arm grab the ladder, and prepared to use his strength to let him go up.
I only heard a noise at the entrance of the cave above, and then the ladder slipped, and half of the ladder slipped down, and Song Sizhe's center of gravity was unstable and he sat down on the ground again.
An Mengyi had to look up to observe the situation above, only to see that the person above was replaced by Gu Shaoze.
In his hand was a knife that he had found out of nowhere, and he was clutching the rope of the ladder and rowing hard.
"Gu Shaoze, what are you doing!Don't you want the treasure chest!" An Mengyi shouted loudly.
Gu Shaoze didn't hear what An Mengyi said, she could only see his grim smile and the ladder that fell down with it. 120
The ladder fell, and the only exit was broken. An Mengyi squatted down to Song Sizhe's side: "Gu Shaoze cut the ladder, we can't get out." ”
Song Sizhe sat on the ground for a while, but he was very calm, listening to An Mengyi's words, and asked her, "We can't get out, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid. An Mengyi said, her eyes still observing the surroundings: "But now we can find out if there is any other exit besides waiting for death." ”
"That's right, there is a glimmer of life that we can't give up. Song Sizhe said.
"What do you mean?" An Mengyi looked at Song Sizhe.
Song Sizhe stretched out his hand: "Help me up." ”
An Mengyi raised his arm, and the two of them stood up again: "Let's walk against the wall, generally the walls of this kind of tomb are relatively strong, and they can't collapse here for the time being." ”
Seeing that An Mengyi was about to move him to the side, Song Sizhe hurriedly bowed his head: "Bring that box with you." ”
An Mengyi finally felt a little incomprehensible: "When are you still thinking about this!"
"You can't come for nothing, don't you? Song Sizhe watched An Mengyi pick up the box, and then followed her to move quickly.
"Do you know anything?" An Mengyi helped him and walked with difficulty.
"Generally, there will be other exits to this kind of tomb, and the ancients were very smart. Song Sizhe said as he walked, in this dangerous situation, he seemed to be lecturing, but it was really reassuring.
Walk through the small cave just now and return to the main tomb just now. The place was still shaking, but there were far fewer stones than had fallen from the place just now.
"What to do now. An Mengyi let Song Sizhe go and asked: "Generally speaking, the main tomb is the top priority, and there are many organs in the city, but there is no movement here. ”
"The mechanism here is useless. Song Sizhe said: "I said, the people who came angered the owner of the tomb, this earthquake shook the mountain, but the owner of the tomb didn't plan to let all of us out alive, so the agency has already been closed." ”
An Mengyi waited quietly and did not interrupt him. Song Sizhe continued: "So we are now going to find other mechanisms that may save our lives. ”
"What if we accidentally find the wrong mechanism?" An Mengyi asked.
"If you want to escape, of course, you can only find it on the ground. Song Sizhe walked to the coffin of the main tomb and reached out to touch the lines on it.
An Mengyi knew that he already had a general direction, and followed him to look for it, but she didn't see any reaction when she looked around.
Song Sizhe finally put his hand on the coffin.
"What are you doing?" An Mengyi exclaimed.
"We pushed it away. Song Sizhe pushed, using all the strength of his body, and finally pushed away just a little bit.
An Mengyi immediately followed, and the two of them worked together to push the coffin a few centimeters away.
"How long does this have to be pushed!" An Mengyi asked.
Song Sizhe didn't reply, he squatted down and picked up a stone and smashed it into the corner of the coffin.
The coffin was already old, and Song Sizhe had cracks after a few smashes, and then he got up again and finally pushed it open with An Mengyi.
After pushing it away, An Mengyi was surprised to find that there was an exit on the ground.
"Let's go!" Song Sizhe picked up the box on the ground, pulled An Mengyi and walked down immediately.
As soon as I walked down, the tomb seemed to feel something, and there was a huge shaking, and then it fell into darkness completely.
The tomb finally fell silent, and the two of them sat on the ground panting. It makes sense that it's pitch black, and you can't see your fingers.
"This is where and why there is a passage. An Mengyi asked.
"Ancient books record that there were once tomb robbers who were worried about huge treasures and mixed in with the workers who were resting in the tombs, trying to find an exit. Song Sizhe said simply: "But it is impossible for people with status and status to publish all the drawings, and no matter who knows, all the drawings will not be known, so the tomb robbers have the idea, which is to make holes in the ground like mice." ”
"How can these things be recorded in ancient books?" An Mengyi wondered.
"This was added later, and it should be that a certain official found out about this matter and calculated it. Song Sizhe said: "Now is not the time to talk about this, let's leave quickly, I don't know how long this tomb will be, I am afraid that we will run out of oxygen for a long time here." ”
The two of them didn't delay much, got up to support each other, and slowly groped their way away.
Along the way, the two people didn't dare to breathe hard, for fear that they would not reach the end of the tomb, and the tomb road slowly became narrower from the normal capacity to accommodate two people, and finally became only one person.
But the good thing is that this tomb road has only one exit, and it will not face the problem of forks.
Neither of them has considered whether the end is also a question of not being able to get out, as long as they keep going, they will always have hope.
