Chapter 015: Sokoban
"Did Tiger Girl come back to you?" Ye Zheng called the black bull.
"Isn't she with you?" The black bull was eating, and asked puzzledly.
"She's suddenly gone!" Ye Zheng said anxiously, very worried.
"Zhengzhì, she often runs around!" The black cow chewed on the food and said calmly.
"This time it's different! If she comes back, you call me right away and hang up! Ye Zheng admonished earnestly, and then turned to look at the empty mountain unwillingly.
Obviously, they were all in that tomb, and the two were only more than 20 meters apart. Even if she found some secret passages, it would always make a little noise, but just now there was no movement, as if the world had evaporated all of a sudden.
Ye Zhengzhì's mind moved quickly, and he suddenly thought of a theory about the "other-dimensional world" that he had read a long time ago, and there were two very famous cases in it.
According to a number of foreign media reports, on July 2, 1999, more than 100 members of the Holy Church in Colombia, Central America, went to the top of Mount Arris to worship. Believing that the "end of the world" was coming in August 1999, the group went up the mountain to pray for God's salvation. Who knew that this group of disciples did not come down after going up the mountain, and disappeared. The incident alarmed the Colombian government, which sent a large number of police officers to search around the summit of Arris, and sent helicopters. In the past month, the entire Sierra Nevada region has been searched, but there is no trace of it.
What is even more surprising is that on May 20, 1978, in the city of New Orleans in the southern United States, on the playground of a middle school, physical education teacher Barkolov was teaching several students to play football and shoot goals. The 14-year-old Barlek suddenly hit the back of the net, jumped up and screamed with joy, and disappeared in the blink of an eye in front of everyone.
……
A light wind blew from the east, and the big trees on the hill rustled and a few leaves fell from the branches. A fallen leaf lost its center of gravity in the wind, swirled in mid-air like a windmill, and finally landed at the heels of a young man.
Ye Zheng stomped his feet and returned to the tomb again, secretly deciding in his heart: Even if this place leads to hell, he must find the tiger girl back.
Tiger Niu was abandoned by her mother at a very young age, but she always remembered her mother and often mentioned it in front of others. And her father doesn't care about the family at all, he is messing around outside, and even if he comes back, he only cares about gambling money, and now she lives with her elderly grandmother, and her life is actually not easy.
It's embarrassing to say, this old and young can be said to depend on each other, and life is tight. However, the Chinese government has done a very good job in this regard and gave them subsidies, otherwise life may be even more difficult.
For this little girl, Ye Zhengzhì was a little sympathetic at first, and she was also a single-parent child, so she had some understanding of her, but then slowly treated her as a sister.
After returning to the tomb, Ye Zheng searched carefully twice, and did not even let go of the stones on the ground, she believed that the tiger girl had disappeared in this tomb. But unfortunately, he didn't find the so-called secret passage, and he really didn't believe in such a thing as a secret passage.
As a result of this carpet search, he instead found a nameplate necklace in the stone pile, with the words "Zhang Sanshui" engraved on the front. Obviously, this was left by the group of tomb robbers, and one of them was named "Zhang Sanshui" or "Zhang Miao".
"That's right!"
Ye Zheng patted his forehead, looked up at the finger bone wrapped in blue flames inside, and then slowly closed his eyes and covered them with his palm.
……
In a secret room, a little girl is swinging around with a flashlight, muttering candy in her mouth, as if looking for something.
She struggled to climb up a bronze tripod, and shone a flashlight into the bronze tripod, and suddenly screamed "ah", and the whole person quickly jumped down, ran towards the side room next to her with her little short legs, and pushed the stone door hard.
After a few more attempts, she found that the stone door was not moving, so she immediately hid under an ever-bright lamp, turned off the flashlight, and her heart was pounding.
Where the light shone just now, it was a headless corpse, the clothes had rotted, the white bones looked particularly secluded, and the hand bones seemed to move just now, which immediately frightened her.
The burial chamber was silent, and the little girl hid in the corner and shrugged her ears, listening carefully.
After a while, she found that there was no movement in the direction of the bronze tripod, and she carefully turned on the flashlight again, and her big eyes began to observe the surrounding environment again.
Around the tomb were eight permanent lamps, which had long since been extinguished. In the center of the burial chamber is a four-legged square tripod, the texture of the tripod is some bird and beast patterns, it is the tripod that the tiger girl climbed up just now, and there is a headless dead body on it.
Obviously, with the principle that everyone usually worships the immortals with cooked chickens on a plate, this headless dried corpse is a sacrifice on a bronze tripod. Heaven is sometimes so ruthless, living unsatisfactory in life, and being treated as a chicken and duck after death.
To the west of the burial chamber, there is a heavy sarcophagus. In front of the sarcophagus there is a raised stone platform, which is carved with ancient characters, which are arranged in a similar arrangement of eight seals, and there is a square notch in the middle position, which used to be placed with something, but now it is gone.
"Is the treasure in here? How do I push it away! Tiger Niu came to the sarcophagus with a flashlight, looked at the coffin lid on the sarcophagus and frowned. She didn't jump up as high as the sarcophagus, let alone push open the lid of the sarcophagus weighing thousands of pounds, which was destined to have nothing to do with the funeral goods inside.
Yes......
Tiger Girl's flashlight dangled to the back of the sarcophagus and was suddenly startled.
On the stone wall at the back, there are a total of six Yaksha reliefs, with different expressions, lifelike, and terrifying. There was a Yaksha with a long tongue, a Yaksha glaring, a Yaksha listening, and a Yaksha with a mouth cut open......
If it weren't for the tiger girl being bold enough, I'm afraid she would have fled for her life.
In front of each Yaksha relief, a small stone table is placed, and on each stone table is a black chest. The boxes were the size of shoeboxes, but five of them had been opened and their contents had been taken.
The black chest on the far left sits there quietly, with the lock still intact. The tiger girl stepped forward, erected the box, and then grabbed both sides and broke it vigorously, suffocating her face and turning red.
"I can't open it!"
The tiger girl sighed helplessly, and found that her strength was still not strong enough, and she couldn't break this lock at all.
She scanned the surroundings with a flashlight, and found that this was probably the only thing left to take away. Although the two stone doors next to her seemed to have treasures, she knew that with her strength, she couldn't push them open at all.
Eventually, she made a decision, picked up the wooden box, and headed down the narrow path.
Click!
As she picked up the box, the small stone table rose slightly a few centimeters with a subtle sound. After the sound, the ground where she was standing shook and the sound of rolling stones was heard.
In ancient times, in order to prevent tomb robbers from robbing tombs, the owner of the tomb was also extremely active, and the most common practice was to set up hidden weapons. This method may not change the fate of theft, but sometimes it is enough to kill you, flooding, fire attacks, sharp arrows and boulders, all kinds of ways are used.
The tiger girl was obviously aware of the danger, picked up the box and ran forward violently, her little short legs were fast, and after a while she came to a hole, but her brow furrowed deeply. This narrow passage is very small, similar to a dog hole, and it only allows her to climb in, and it is not enough to hold the box.
In this case, I am afraid that too many people have given up, but Hu Niu has her persistence.
She placed the box on the narrow aisle, then pushed it forward hard, and the whole person got into it. Fortunately, the narrow road was smooth and there was no resistance, and she was like a dolphin with a ball on its head, crawling forward.
Bang!
As she had just descended the narrow passage, a boulder fell heavily from the top of the tomb, shaking the ground and rolling dust. The mechanism of this tomb did not use mercury and poisonous gas, and it seemed that the purpose was to trap the other party and make the most of this stone fortress.
Fortunately, the tiger girl ran one step faster, otherwise she would have to be trapped inside.
Hey, hey, hey!
The tiger girl was not aware of the danger just now, and was happily pushing forward the box in the narrow road, but when she was about ten meters forward, she gradually felt the effort, and it was not as smooth as it was at the beginning.
Twenty meters ahead, sweat slowly soaking her collar, but she didn't give up and continued to move forward.
At the bend in the narrow road, her flashlight accidentally landed there.
After a moment's hesitation, she continued to crawl forward, only to feel her speed getting slower and slower. Sweat was pouring from his forehead, his breathing was getting shorter and shorter, his whole body felt stuffy, and the strength in his arms was getting smaller and smaller.
That wasn't the end of the story, and after a difficult ten meters of progress, she found that the box could barely be pushed. The floor of the narrow passage was no longer smooth and began to become rough, so that the friction of the boxes increased.
She thought of a way, stretched out her hands and lifted the wooden box, moving forward like a snake, so that the box had no friction. It's just a pit, the wooden box that wasn't heavy originally, at this time she felt like a thousand pounds, and her arms were already sore, and she couldn't hold it at all.
She crawled forward, intending to climb out first and then come back to drag the box. But the next moment, finally in a hurry, she pushed the box to the side and drilled her body to the side, but found that this trick did not work at all, and the box hindered her progress.
Woo......
Suddenly, the tiger girl cried loudly, and tears fell to the floor. No matter how much she struggled, she couldn't get out at all, and she could barely poke her head out.
This chest, which was originally regarded as a treasure, has become a noose at this time. He couldn't get past the box and went forward, and he withdrew backwards, again with no way out. For the first time, she was terrified, knowing that she might die here.
A lot of nostalgia flashed through her mind, at first it was the fries in the town, the candy in the commissary, and the fragrant chicken legs made by her grandmother, then she thought of her mother, who hadn't come to see her for a long time, and her grandmother who loved her, and finally Ye Zhengzhì.
Thinking about it, her tears were like a flood that had burst its banks, and her voice began to cry bitterly.
At this moment, a blinding light lit up in front of the narrow path, like a holy light shining into hell, and she saw hope for an instant. It was supposed to be a dazzling light, but at this time she felt warm, but the tears couldn't stop, and they were still dripping from her eyes.
