Chapter Seventy-Six: Rendezvous 2 (II)
"Summer ...... Mr. Xia...... Both of them? Chen Badai has never seen Wang Xingguo speak so gently to anyone, is this still the Wang Xingguo he knows? couldn't help but think of others, he pointed to Wang Xingguo, who had given Xia Ruobing medicine, and asked Sherpa in a low voice.
Sherpa glared at him, glaring Chen Badai's gossip heart out of the clouds.
"Wang Xingguo, do you still have spare batteries?" Chen Badai remembered this important matter.
After giving Xia Ruobing the medicine and wrapping her hands, a few people sat down to think about what was going on.
"You said Mr. Min went north?" Wang Xingguo listened to the two of them and asked.
"He said there must be a way out in the north." "He also said that around the coffin hill is a huge sun burial, with death as the center, and those villages surround the coffin mountain, and in the coffin mountain, the cemetery is the center, and those stone chambers surround the cemetery." ”
Sherpa thought for a moment and added: "To the north of the coffin mountain is Zhixin Village, and to the south is the Ghost Gate. ”
Wang Xingguo remembered the line of the map he had drawn, and quickly took it out.
"To the west is Chengzi Village!" Chen Badai also remembered, and Mr. Min also said that when they voted, they were thinking that the passage to the north was seriously damaged, and they might be able to find an exit to Chengzi Village to the west.
Sherpa saw that Wang Xingguo took out the map, as well as a hand-drawn route map, and also took out the route map he had drawn.
The two route maps were put together, and everyone saw some clues, they fell into the coffin mountain from the east of the south, and fell into two different passages, Sherpa's route map generally acted clockwise, and Wang Xingguo took Xia Ruobing around and around in a counterclockwise manner.
The two drawings were put together, and Wang Xingguo drew a new route map on a new piece of paper, which was finally connected at the intersection of the two teams.
Sherpa they saw the sun in the cave and they saw the sun in the cave is actually not far away, a long time ago the two caves may still be connected together, but I don't know why they collapsed, the rocks separated a big cave into two, there are countless bones in this cave, Mr. Min also mentioned, death is the center, Wang Xingguo felt that his inference was not wrong, here is death as the center, in the underground formed a huge sun burial.
Wang Xingguo depicted the distribution of stone chambers, tombs, and passages one by one, and sure enough, as he imagined, with the huge death center as the center, a number of stone chambers and passages were distributed in an arc from west to east, and each stone chamber also had a number of radiation channels.
The cemetery has four passages, which are exactly four directions, north, south, east and west, and when connected to the next stone chamber, four or eight passages are divided again, so that they are slowly distributed, forming a huge and complex group of underground passages like a beehive.
However, most of the stone chambers and passages were not completed, and some were destroyed for unknown reasons, and this huge underground passage complex was abandoned, and no one has ever excavated it again.
"You saw the tomb of the wizard Yuyuki? And the beetle carvings? Sherpa was shocked when he saw this underground distribution map, "Is this really dug out by the Loulan people?" ”
Wang Xingguo glanced at Xia Ruobing and felt that this question made her answer better.
"I took this half of the metal rod from the Tomb of the Feather, if I guessed correctly, this is the scepter that represents the power of the Feather Wizard."
"By the way, Mr. Min said that the north side must be the tomb of the Great Wizard!" Chen Badai suddenly remembered, "Did he go to find the tomb of the Great Wizard?" ”
"Okay, let's take a closer look, let's temporarily assume that this is the underground sun burial group established by the Loulan people, now we have basically figured out the situation in the south, most of the passages and tombs here have been destroyed, and the huge cemetery full of wreckage has been abandoned for many years, we can only try to find the exit to the west and north, Mr. Min is right, the exit will be in the north."
"Why?" Sherpa and Chen Badai asked in unison.
"The sun burial is honored in the north, and when the dead are buried, their heads will face north, and if the great wizard Mr. Min said exists, his tomb will be in the north!"
"But if you go west, it's closer to Chengzi Village." Chen Badai asked.
"How many batteries do you have?" Wang Xingguo suddenly asked rhetorically.
Perhaps to cooperate with Wang Xingguo's words, Sherpa's already faint flashlight flashed and was completely extinguished.
"Mr. Min wouldn't leave something else behind for no reason and take the battery with him, he definitely knew there would be an exit to the north." Xia Ruobing echoed, and after thinking about it, she felt that Wang Xingguo was right.
"Check the equipment, we have to save as much power as possible, and only turn on one flashlight." Wang Xingguo said, "Find Mr. Min as soon as possible." ”
"What if you can't find it?" Chen Badai asked.
"If he goes out, he will leave traces, and if he doesn't go out, we won't be able to find ......" Wang Xingguo hesitated, looked at Xia Ruobing, and reorganized the second half of the sentence, "Let's think of another way." ”
"There's only so much battery left." Chen Badai collected all the batteries, most of them were not enough, even if they only turned on a flashlight, they could only use the weakest light gear, and they could last up to 30 hours when they were full.
"Damn Mr. Min, took all the batteries from my caving flashlight!" Chen Badai scolded hatefully, "If I find him, I have to throw him here and let him die in the dark!" ”
"Let's go, don't bother!" Wang Xingguo packed up his equipment, time was precious.
"By the way, we followed the mark of cinnabar, and Mr. Min said that cinnabar was used for orientation underground."
"Huh?" Wang Xingguo remembered that the tomb of Yu was covered with thick cinnabar, and the appearance of cinnabar here must have a special meaning, perhaps it was really used to mark the exit passage underground, as Mr. Min said.
"There is a passage in the stone chamber in front of us, we haven't explored it yet, Mr. Min should go over there!" Chen Badai picked up his backpack and urged, "Hurry up and chase, our batteries are all on him!" ”
All the way back to the same way, found the messy stone room, Chen Badai drilled into the other side of the passage, this passage has no mark of cinnabar, there are some accumulated cinnabar in some of the concaves, as if this place has been washed by the water, the passage is quite spacious, but there are a lot of fallen stones, everyone saw the traces left by Mr. Min when he walked through these rocks, it seems that he is still in a hurry, and there are marks left after slipping in many places.
