Chapter 37: No Way Out 2 (II)
"No problem...... I have an ancestral secret recipe......" Chen Badai said with confidence, he broke his ankle with his hand, although it hurt a little, but it was sure that the bone was not injured, every time he went out, Chen Badai would take Wang Xing's ancestral bone-setting medicine, don't look at the medicine can not get the production approval, but it is stronger than anything on the market that is known as the bone-setting medicine, this kind of small injury, within a few hours of application, can walk like a flying tiger.
After the preliminary examination, Chen Badai pressed the injured area with his fingers, the ankle joint was painful, and the swollen part almost didn't feel too much, that is, it was a very ordinary soft tissue contusion, as long as the medicine was applied, all the problems were not a problem.
Chen Badai rubbed his wound with one hand, invigorated the blood and applied medicine, opened the auxiliary bag of the backpack with the other hand, groped for the magic medicine of bone-setting, touched it for a long time, and did not touch the familiar small medicine bottle, Chen Badai was a little surprised, pulled the backpack to his side, shone the flashlight, put his head up, and looked back and forth several times.
“Whatthefuck?!” Chen Badai let out an angry roar!
"What's wrong with you?" The Sherpa who was thinking hard was interrupted again and a little irritable.
"Mr. Xia, do you have any bone-setting medicine?" Chen Badai said in a hurry, and only then did Chen Badai remember that the small medicine bottle containing the elixir of bone-setting was originally placed in the auxiliary bag with the medicine bag, but after checking the equipment just now, Chen Badai easily stuffed it into the main bag, and at this time it should be lying in a corner of the ground with other lost things.
"Where's your kit?" Sherpa was a little surprised, but then reacted, and opened his bag in a disdainful manner, and threw the medicine bag over, "That's all there is to it." ”
Chen Badai opened the medicine bag and only found a small bottle of bone-setting spray, this thing looked at the advertisement blowing all over the sky, in fact, its anti-mosquito effect is much better than the treatment of bone-setting, but at this time Chen Badai did not have to choose, only with the mentality of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, "poof" sprayed five or six times in a row, feeling that the effect was not enough, and sprayed it twice hard, and the spray flowed down the ankle......
"Hey, you can save some." Sherpa looked really distressed, such a small area, Chen Badai squirted off a quarter of it in just a few moments!
"This thing can also prevent mosquitoes, and there are no mosquitoes here......" Chen Badai rubbed the swollen area vigorously, as if he wanted to rub the liquid medicine into the skin, rubbed it to the sore spot, and couldn't help but "sizzle" on his mouth.
"Save some battery." The Sherpa turned off the flashlight, and the surroundings fell into darkness, and Mr. Min, who was less than a meter away from Chen Badai, was dark, and Chen Badai's image disappeared from his eyes, and the Sherpa did not speak, only heard the "sizzling" sound of Chen Badai gasping for air......
Ten minutes later, Chen Badai felt that he was rubbing it hot, not to mention that it was possible to rub the liquid medicine into the skin and seep into the bones, he shook his sore hand, and then found that everyone had not spoken.
"Hey...... Say a few words, it's so dark and so quiet, it's weird. Chen Badai spoke.
Sherpa just listened to Chen Badai's "sizzling" sound, leaning against the cave wall and feeling a little tired, the "sizzling" sound was like a lullaby, at this time he was already asleep, Mr. Min did not sleep, this "sizzling" sound echoed in his ears, he wanted to make sure that he was still alive, at least now his senses can still feel, then it proves that he is still alive, but how long can he live? The fear in Mr. Min's heart slowly raised his head again, he felt a tightening of his chest, and Mr. Min could clearly feel the fear surrounding his heart, squeezing with a "sizzling" sound, making him feel breathless.
Hearing Chen Badai speak, fear seemed to have met a nemesis, and he shrank without a trace at once, and Mr. Min was relieved from his fear.
"Huh? Asleep? Chen Badai didn't hear the response, fumbled for the flashlight, ready to turn it on, and see what everyone was doing.
"This must be the burial ground of the Loulan wizard." Mr. Min suddenly spoke.
"Hey, I'll go...... Mr. Min, you are too scary, as soon as you open your mouth, it is a cemetery. Chen Badai heard someone's voice, which proved that at least he was not alone.
In this closed place, a person can easily go crazy, someone talking can relieve mental tension, as long as there is a topic, it doesn't matter what he is.
"We've definitely missed something, and since they've dug this place, there's bound to be a way out." Mr. Min said.
"Oh...... This place has been abandoned for at least a few hundred years, why did those Loulan people spend the old cow's nose to dig such a hole, and then don't want it? Chen Badai asked rhetorically.
I can't answer this question, thinking of the layout of the nearby villages, and the resistant expressions of the villagers when talking about the Ghost Gate Pass and the Coffin Mountain, there must be an amazing secret under this Coffin Mountain.
"I thought about it carefully, just now we passed by two stone chambers, and there were similar radial passages, but they were not completed." Sherpa spoke, "These stone chambers must have been connected by passages. ”
"Needless to say? But which is the way? Chen Badai felt that Sherpa said no different from not saying it.
"If this is really the form of a solar burial, will it ......?" Mr. Min thought there must be a connection, but he couldn't say.
"Wait!" Sherpa seemed to remember something, "Do you have pen and paper?" ”
Mr. Min found the coins and drawings for him from his bag, and the Sherpa drew the line he had just walked on the paper with his memory, after all, he was engaged in surveying, and the Sherpa drew at a very good level, although it did not mark the south, south, west, and northwest, but the general proportions were still very coordinated.
“SO?!” When Chen Badai saw the line drawn by the Sherpa and felt that his head was starting to get bigger.
"This is where we are now, this is the stone room when Chen Badai and I found Mr. Min, this stone room has a total of 13 passages, we walked from here and met Mr. Min, and then we went out from this passage, passed by here, and here, these two stone chambers are very small, and there are several passages......" Sherpa said, at this time it seems a little heavy to talk about death, although it is very appropriate, but Chen Badai thinks that it may be better to talk about women: "Hey, what do you say Xia Ruobing is at this time?" ”
"Mr. Min, is this a sun burial? This...... It's a spider web café! Chen Badai looked at the picture, if the Sherpa is not wrong, this passage is connected to the stone chamber, then these stone chambers are like the intersection of the longitude and latitude lines on a spider web, and each intersection points diverge out several lines until they intersect with the next stone chamber.
These stone chambers and passages, most of them are dug out by natural caves, so it is impossible to be very regular, the only passing by a small stone chamber of about 20 square meters is chiseled out, roughly in a circle, if you have to go to the direction of the sun burial, it seems to make sense, but who has ever seen the sun has such a curved "light"? Besides, the "sun" and the "sun" are connected into a spider web, what is going on?
The problem came back to a dead knot, and whether this was the sun burial of the Loulan people or something else, they had to find a way out.
"It's good that Xia Ruobing is here." Mr. Min sighed under his breath.
"Mr. Min, why are you so interested in Loulan?" Chen Badai brought up the old story again.
"A very mysterious kingdom, the largest, most populous, and richest kingdom among the 36 countries in the Western Regions, suddenly fell apart 2,000 years ago, which fascinated me."
"It's okay now anyway, you can talk about it." Chen Badai leaned against the wall and stretched out his legs to make himself comfortable.
Legend has it that 2,000 years ago, there was a violent turmoil in Loulan, which is also an important reason for the rapid decline of Loulan...... The wizarding group, which was in charge of the rituals and rituals, had a fierce conflict with the royal family, and finally the wizarding clan was expelled. Mr. Min said.
"How do you know?" Sherpa was surprised.
"Legends aren't just stories." Mr. Min avoided talking about it, "I have a lot of friends who play with antiques, and the treasures of Loulan are haunted by many people's dreams. ”
"I'll just say that Mr. Min didn't come here to see some dead man walking." Chen Badai sneered, no wonder Mr. Min would be so generous.
"No, I'm not like them, I can spend money for curiosity, treasure...... That, of course, is national. Mr. Min smiled, "Even if I find something here, it's a state." ”
"You rich people's world is really incomprehensible." Chen Badai didn't want to think about these questions, the top priority was to find a way out of this underground spider web, otherwise everything would be meaningless, "Mr. Min, we are different, very different." ”
"Yes, we're very different." On this point, Mr. Min and Chen Badai have the same opinion.
"Uh, Chen Badai, let me ask you a question, if I get hurt, will you leave me and walk away by myself?"
"Hey, I'll go...... Why is it that every time someone asks me this question, I ask a woman who I will save first when I fall into the water with your mother. Chen Badai muttered, this question is indeed difficult to answer, because human nature and reality are in conflict at this time.
"Hey...... Then I ask you, I'm injured and can't walk, will you walk away? Chen Badai simply threw this problem back.
"You answer me first." Mr. Min said.
"Hey...... Then I won't, in my eyes, that's money, I'm very short of money now, I say Haitian feast, I have to weigh even eating a plate of crayfish now, if you can't go back, who will give me money? Chen Badai said, serious.
"Poof...... Am I just money in your eyes? Mr. Min was amused by Chen Badai's words.
"It's better to keep it simple, but now we talk about life and philosophy? I don't understand it anyway. ”
"Simple and good, Chen Badai, you are different from Wang Xingguo, you are simple but not simple." Mr. Min suddenly remembered Wang Xingguo, this is definitely a master of survival, if he didn't die, Mr. Min felt that he should talk to him well, he had been looking for capable people, and Wang Xingguo was definitely the best candidate.
He ...... Hey, you have to be as simple as a fool......" Speaking of his own hair, Chen Badai was a little speechless.
"Hmm......" Mr. Min obviously didn't listen to what Chen Badai said.
Seeing that Mr. Min didn't talk, Chen Badai felt that he had to find something to talk about, and asked, "Hey, if I am injured and can't leave, will you leave me alone?" ”
"Yes!" Mr. Min did not hesitate at all.
"Hey, I'll go, you're too direct, aren't you? You didn't think about rescuing it? Chen Badai exclaimed exaggeratedly!
"What? What salvage?! Sherpa didn't listen to what they were saying, her eyes were glued to the drawings, her mind was racing at high speed.
"It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Xia, you continue to look at the map to find your way." Chen Badai said angrily, Sherpa almost startled himself.
"I'm just kidding, I once left a man behind...... Mr. Min said.
"You've been in danger before?" Chen Badai felt a little strange.
"Sort of...... But luckily, I went back to the rescue team and got her back. As Mr. Min spoke, his face twitched unnaturally a few times, but in the dark, Chen Badai did not see the painful expression on his face.
"Mr. Min, you are not a person who will not be saved when you see death!" Mr. Min's answer made Chen Badai feel at ease, but at this time he was also tired, and he leaned against the cave wall, "I'll sleep, I'm tired to death." ”
"Yes, I'm not a person who can't be saved...... If I could do it all over again...... Mr. Min's words were more like talking to himself.
"Hmm...... Anyway, I'm thrown here now, and if I could do it all over again, I wouldn't be coming in. Chen Badai muttered, ignored Mr. Min, and closed his eyes.
