Chapter 36: No Way Out 2 (I)
"Uncle! Your uncle! Your uncle's! Chen Badai walked back to the same place for the third time, and used three "uncles" in a row! "To express the indignation of the heart!
This time still did not find the right way, Mr. Min helplessly leaned against the cave wall, his feet because of fatigue and inner fear has almost not been able to support his body, in the silent cave, Mr. Min can almost hear his fast heartbeat, nervousness will cause too fast consumption, but Mr. Min can not suppress this tension, he is unwilling, he has been preparing for 20 years, in order to pursue Loulan, he has invited a number of professional coaches to train himself, Mr. Min believes that he now has enough ability, plus the blessing of faith, He must have been able to cope with the most dangerous environment, but the reality ruthlessly hit his confidence, and Mr. Min, who was jumping off a cliff and challenging the difficult rock climbing, was teased by a weathered stone, and his body disappeared in front of his eyes twice in a row, humming...... The stone is teasing itself, and the corpse is also teasing itself! Mr. Min's feet were weak, and he slipped against the wall of the cave and sat on the ground with his buttocks.
"Mr. Xia, this way? This way? Or is it this way? Chen Badai was a little discouraged and used a flashlight to shine a few forks in the road that had not been taken, and asked Sherpa, but Sherpa couldn't make up his mind now, according to experience, the bigger the hole is often connected to the exit, but why is it so strange here, the two largest holes always bring themselves back to their original places.
Sherpa clearly remembered how many forks in the depths of the two holes, and he placed road signs at each fork in the road, but when he turned around, he turned a little confused, and he couldn't tell how many times the road signs passed by, but now no matter how many times they passed by, it was meaningless, because everyone was back to square one, and this place was too familiar to be more familiar, and a dozen forks were quietly staring at them, and there might be a road to the outside. Or it could just be a dangerous situation that gives them hope but has no way out.
"Uh...... Let's try Hole 7? I'm not sure ......" Sherpa thought and thought, his tone was very hesitant, since the big one can't get through, then he can only try the small hole, but which small hole is the road can only be guessed, and the Sherpa who has failed continuously is now not confident.
"I'll ...... Mr. Xia, why don't we draw lots for a few stones? Chen Badai was a little dissatisfied, since it was all guesses, it was better to be lucky.
In the state of survival, strong skills and logical analysis are indeed the most important means of survival, but now here, logical analysis seems to be out of order, logical analysis must have a starting point, just like the famous chimney jumping sophistry, you have to assume that the chimney jumping man will not die, and there are really such two fools jumping chimney again and again, sophistry can be a fictional starting point and scene, and then use logic to weave tightly, but in the current situation, let alone sophistry, even the most normal logical analysis will not work, Because these logical relationships lack the most basic starting point and process.
Now they don't know anything except that they know that they are underground, or to be more precise, they know that they are in a hall underground, there are more than a dozen passages in the hall, and they know that the two largest passages cannot meet their needs to escape, and they need to find a way out of the remaining dozen passages.
But it was pointless, they didn't have a map of the cave, they couldn't even find directions, Sherpa looked up at the top of the range, there was a way out, but it didn't work.
It was already dark, and the Sherpa carefully distinguished it for a long time before he could barely see the palm-sized dark blue sky, and the long slope led to the ground of the Coffin Mountain, but if he needed to go up, in addition to the ropes, the Sherpa must have an electric drill and pitons, otherwise he would not be able to lay a solid anchor point on the smooth rock wall.
Now it seems that the only way out is that it cannot be used because of lack of equipment, and Chen Badai feels that Sherpa has no choice, so it is better to ask Mr. Min: "Hey, Mr. Min, what do you think?" Mr. Min ...... Ay! ”
When the two were studying the fork in the cave, they turned their backs to Mr. Min, and when Chen Badai asked, he didn't hear Mr. Min answer, and when he looked back, Mr. Min didn't know when he sat on the ground, his head drooped to the side, and he looked like he was dead.
Chen Badai hurriedly ran to Mr. Min's side, this is an important customer, and he still has two-thirds of the balance unsettled! Chen Badai lifted Mr. Min's head: "Hey! Mr. Min ......"
"I'm fine......" Mr. Min opened his mouth to speak, he just felt too tired, after sitting down, a wave of tiredness hit, so he drooped his head and fell asleep, he had been listening to Chen Badai and Sherpa talking, but he didn't want to open his mouth at all, as soon as his eyes were closed, Chen Badai rushed to his side and interrupted his dream.
"Whew...... Mr. Min, you really scared me to death. Chen Badai's hanging heart relaxed, in his eyes, these more than 100 catties of meat are worth more than 100,000 yuan!
The worst situation in the team right now is Mr. Min, Sherpa looked at Mr. Min's face and sighed: "Let's rest." ”
"Hmm...... What time is it? Mr. Min's spirit has been in a state of tension, in fact he is very tired, and he is relieved to hear Sherpa say the word rest.
"I don't know...... We probably walked for three or four hours. "The watch has long since stopped, and the Sherpa has not been trained to estimate time, so he can only calculate by feeling.
Experienced people feel that it will be more accurate, Sherpa can be regarded as a crawling in the wild for nearly ten years, participated in many scientific expeditions, but his experience is based on team support, this is the first time he has encountered the problem of survival! All his experience is out of order, but Sherpa is still very calm, at least he knows that the first element of survival is calm, no matter how flustered his heart is, he must suppress it, let calmness occupy his heart, and drive fear out!
"Mr. Xia, you finally have something to say." When Chen Badai heard this, he didn't delay for a second, his ass had already sat down, and then he took out the compressed dry food from his pocket, he really needed to rest, since he fell here, they were almost constantly looking for a way.
Maybe it was after stopping that the brain had time to rest, and after a while, Mr. Min spoke: "I don't think it's a way for us to go this way." ”
"Uh-huh." Chen Badai agreed, but what better way could Mr. Min do?
"Sun burial? But there has never been a record of such a solar burial. Sherpa muttered to herself, looking up again at the cave hall and the passageways.
Mr. Min leaned over to the cave wall, carefully looked at the chisel marks, and tried to analyze something from here, this mountain is hematite mixed with soil, this kind of hematite with poor grade is not as hard as imagined, some passages are formed after hollowing out the earth, some are excavated in the softer stone mountains, so they do not form a symmetrical shape, describing the hall as a burial chamber, these passages are the way of sun burial, somewhat far-fetched.
But Mr. Min strongly felt that this must be the masterpiece of the Loulan people, and it must be the masterpiece of those wizards who were expelled by the royal family.
Chen Badai finished eating half of the compressed dry food, and Mr. Min was still on the edge of the stone wall, he wrapped the remaining half and asked, "Do you see anything famous?" ”
Mr. Min didn't answer, he must not have seen anything famous, this hall and these passages have not been come since they were chiseled, if it is really as Mr. Min said, this is the special sun burial of the Loulan people, what about the bones? What about the funeral goods? What about the treasure?
"Wait, let's think about the route we've taken, and it looks like we've been turning left along the big passage."
"Hmm." Chen Badai felt that this kind of brain-using work made them think about it, he had been walking all the way for so long, his sprained foot was very uncomfortable, and it was time to deal with it now.
In order to tightly wrap the feet, it is really not easy to take off the hiking shoes, Chen Badai grinned and took off the shoes, and there was a smell in the air that people were familiar with but definitely didn't want to smell, Chen Badai took a closer look with a flashlight: "Hey, I'll go...... What's the situation?! ”
My ankle is swollen, and it doesn't look like it's okay! Chen Badai took off his socks, and his ankles reflected the sparkling light under the flashlight light, and the swelling caused by congestion made the surface of the skin extremely smooth, quite a charm that could be blown and broken.
"Why don't you deal with it when it's so serious?" Sherpa saw the ankle that was swollen into a small steamed bun and blamed.
"You're always giving me time to deal with it?!" Chen Badai muttered dissatisfiedly.
Sherpa secretly blamed himself for being careless, he just asked casually, Chen Badai said that the sprain did not affect the action, and he was in a hurry to find other people, and then they almost never stopped, constantly looking for the way, exercise, if Chen Badai's feet continued to develop and affect the action, the consequences would be very serious.
"Deal with it quickly, don't affect the action." Sherpa said, at this time, Mr. Min also glanced at the small steamed bun on Chen Badai's ankle, and then turned his face to the side.
