Chapter 21: The Tomb Crisis
Anyone can go, but Situ Xichen is her confidant, if she doesn't get rid of it, she will be uneasy every day, but now she still wants to keep him useful, but if it drags on for a long time, who can expect that something will really happen that she can't control.
Since you want to enter an unknown cave, you must be fully prepared, and it is not enough to just think about the light, but it is also important to ensure sufficient oxygen here, which is enough to see from the burning of the flames.
Therefore, it is necessary to prepare a few torches before departure, which does not require strong lighting ability, but must be able to ensure that the burning time is sufficient, and at this time, kerosene plays an important role.
After making the torches, even if they are ready to do OK, although people have a natural fear of darkness, it is obvious that they are even more afraid of Qingshu's anger, although Qingshu guarantees their lives, but in the face of this very character who kills people without blinking, no one knows if they will be unhappy and kill them.
Everyone just walked into the cave for more than ten meters, and immediately the light reached a very low level of visibility, which is also to blame that the road here is not always straight, but winding, only a few tens of meters of the road, it is not clear at all.
"Turn on the flashlight, I'm afraid there won't be any light coming in for a long time, and all we can rely on is the flashlight." Do you have any hypoxic conditions such as dizziness? If there is, be sure to say it, and always pay attention to the burning condition of the torch, if you find that the torch is less burning, change it first, and if it is still not burning, you must consider whether you want to leave the place. ”
As a guide in the whole team, Browning has to play a role, and it is best to find the tomb, but if the price is to pay for his life, it is more than worth the loss.
Seeing that everyone did what they said, Browning nodded with satisfaction.
"Very well, go ahead."
Situ Xichen walked at the back of the team, it stands to reason that this is the most dangerous position in the entire team, but now he still has some doubts that he has not understood.
Because since he entered this cave, he has not had the slightest fear that ordinary people should have, but has an indescribable sense of intimacy and familiarity, as if he had been here himself, as if this was his home.
Of course, this must not be possible, after all, he has no reason and impression of being here.
"Is it a delusion?"
Situ Xichen shook his head and stopped thinking about this, after all, the focus of the matter now is not here.
"This ...... This is! ”
Suddenly, that Shen Mingquan screamed, and everyone also looked in the direction of his flashlight, and they were all surprised.
Because, the place where they have been walking down is very rough, like a naturally formed cave, without any traces of artificiality, but the next road is as if it is finely crafted, whether it is workmanship or materials, it can be comparable to modern people's production technology.
Although on the whole, this road is not considered to be a welfare magnificent, but it gives people an indescribable simplicity and atmosphere.
"Oh my God, is this really an ancient tomb, there is such a high production technology, such a building, even in modern times, there are few such superb ones, this and this, it is simply a miracle!"
Shen Mingquan's appearance was a little indescribably crazy, maybe he had been suppressed for too long, he urgently needed these things to enrich his final thesis, such an opportunity was hard to come by, who knows when he missed a new opportunity to wait.
"Great, great, these are very valuable references, they are rare treasures, as long as I can understand the specific age of these things, my graduation thesis will definitely shine!"
"Inside, yes! There must be something more valuable in it, haha, finally! Finally! ”
"Calm down!"
Situ Xichen stepped forward and pressed his shoulder to stabilize him, it was not a good thing to lose control at this time.
"I'm sorry, I'm just, so excited."
Shen Mingquan scratched his head a little apologetically.
"Is it a scholar who cares a lot about the way out, such a person can indeed be trusted, as long as he can put forward enough conditions to tempt him, there must be no problem."
Now manpower is very important, and it is also the best bargaining chip for him to escape, he has money, and he has the connections that his father accumulated when he was in business, but it should not be difficult to arrange a job for a college student who has achieved academic success.
Situ Xichen secretly wrote down Shen Mingquan, he is not the same as Sima Xuan, as long as he speaks, and does not talk about his feelings with himself, it is just Wen Yu, it should not be difficult for him to help, but this Shen Mingquan is not related to him, and it is still difficult to ask others to help him, but it is not without any operability.
"But here, is it really something left by the ancients?"
Situ Xichen looked around, and there was endless surprise in his heart, there are many materials here that he has never seen before, and from the perspective of production, it makes him feel incredible, the whole man-made cave is simply natural, although there are many lines similar to bricks piled up here, but if you look carefully, you will find that these lines are actually carved, that is to say, this is made of a whole piece of material, to ask why, The explanation is that the material of the cave wall here is completely different from the outside.
If there was only a slight difference, he could still accept it, but with such a completely different material, he could only think that these materials came from the outside, but how did such a large piece of material get in from such a small hole? This Situ Xichen couldn't figure it out.
"Could it be that this mountain was made because of this piece of material? How could it be ......"
Situ Xichen smiled self-deprecatingly, now is the time to think about these things, his brain is really not the right time.
Along the way, Shen Mingquan slapped and hit these stone walls, as if he was afraid that something would be missed, and he almost couldn't keep up with the team several times.
Originally, Qing Shushi didn't plan to take this trouble with him, so he thought that he would get lost, but he didn't know what method Shen Mingquan used to keep up with him, no matter how many times he disappeared, how many times, he could reappear in a short period of time.
Qingshu didn't bother to care about him, so he left him to fend for himself.
Situ Xichen looked at his curious baby's appearance, a little speechless, and said:
"If you slap and beat like you, if you really hit something at any point, like the wall or the ground, as long as you hit it, I'm afraid everyone will be finished!"
"No!"
Shen Mingquan obviously didn't have the freshness of the past, and said:
"That's all crooked by yourself when you read novels or something, how can there be such a mysterious thing in real life, that's just a writing technique of inspiration, the real ancient tomb is not so superb, just building a tomb of this scale is already very remarkable, how can there be a trap...... Trap. ”
"Click!"
Shen Mingquan was smiling, when suddenly a brick on the wall was sinking deep into the wall, and his hand was pressed on it.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
As soon as Shen Mingquan withdrew his hand, the brick retreated with a "swish", but there seemed to be some beast in the distance, and it kept roaring.
Situ Xichen's face was a little ugly, and this voice gave him a bad association......
Everyone stopped, looking at the dark lacquered corridor behind them for some reason, Qing Shu also seemed to have found something, and couldn't help but say angrily:
"What did you do?!"
Shen Mingquan looked innocent, he didn't want to provoke such a killing god.
"No......"
Situ Xichen heard the voice getting closer and closer, and then thought about the similar novels he had read, and finally understood a little, it was ......
Finally, the voice was only a dozen meters away from everyone, and by the light of the flashlight, everyone finally changed color.
"Damn! Rolling stone! ”
Situ Xichen hated it, but he didn't expect it to be true, looking at the boulder rushing by, he just felt that his scalp was numb.
"What are you waiting for, run!"
Situ Xichen said nothing, strode and ran up, happened to rub shoulders with Ning Luo, so he pushed her hard, pushed her aside, and then took advantage of the situation to grab the frightened Wen Yu's hand and ran up, Ning Luo was also startled, but it was too late, Situ ran very fast, and disappeared immediately.
"Damn!"
Seeing Situ Xichen fleeing with Wen Yu, Ning Luo was also annoyed, he didn't expect to be escaped by them like this.
"Chase!"
Qing Shu's face was also ugly for a while, her own plan, which had never been wrong, was ruined by the most inconspicuous guy with such a stupid method, how could she not be angry!?
Ning Luo was also shocked, she had never seen a teacher so angry, and she had never been so angry, but now she even had such a gentle teacher......
"Yes, Teacher!"
Ning Luo also knew how important this operation was to her teacher and to her, of course, she couldn't be careless, so she immediately went to chase after her.
Of course, even if they don't chase Situ Xichen and the others, at least they have to escape, they just have the ability to do it, no matter how strong they are, but now is the vulnerable period, like that kind of small stone, put it in front of it, a little finger will burst, but now it is something that can threaten her life.
Now, after Shen Mingquan's inadvertent trouble, the people who were originally very gathered together were scattered all of a sudden.
"Wen Yu, don't be afraid, there is a brother!"
Situ Xichen heard the sound behind him gradually become smaller, and he knew that the boulder must have been stuck or rolled into other holes, there were many other forks here, and they were zigzag, presumably it was still very unrealistic for this rolling stone to follow people in one direction.
"Uh-huh......"
Situ Wenyu hugged her brother tightly, and her tears couldn't be stopped all of a sudden, she was actually not such a strong girl, especially after experiencing the run-in between life and death, she was even more vulnerable.
"Okay, don't cry, now you have to think about how to get out of this hellish place, you are a professional, do you have any clue?"
Situ Xichen patted her on the back and said.
"Nope."
Situ Wenyu left Situ Xichen's embrace and shook his head.
"After all, I'm only researching antiquities or tombs of general specification, and this is obviously a copy of a tomb robbery novel, which I hadn't heard of in school."
Just kidding, she Situ Wenyu is not a professional inverted bucket, and she doesn't have any gold talismans in her hands, where do you know what tomb skills, they develop new tombs, and they also start digging from above, and have been exposing the entire tomb to the sun, like this precedent of entering directly without excavation, which is unheard of in archaeology.
Unless it's those who specialize in tomb robbing, they will have a clue about such a place. But she wasn't.
"Okay."
Situ Xichen was also a little helpless, who would have thought that this kind of thing that only appears in novels and movies really exists in real life, this is a tomb and a trap, isn't this a play with people!
"However, brother is so smart, there will definitely be a way!"
Situ Wenyu is now relaxed, after all, he is now out of the most dangerous relief, as long as the matter of losing his life is not imminent, they will definitely have a way.
