Chapter 69: The Wall of Corpses

"Akagi's father at the time analyzed that our previous shouting might have caused the sand dunes to resonate, and the original stable structure was destroyed under the resonance, and the loose sand passed through the cave and flowed into the cavity of the underground channel. The fact is that during the dry season, when the groundwater level is low, the sand flows into the cavities of the underground caverns, and in the rainy season, the water washes away the sand, and when the sand is carried away by the storm, the ruins are capriciously exposed. The bald man went there in the rainy season, and in the past twenty years, every year in the rainy season, the archaeological institute will send people to look for the sand waterfall, hoping that the bald man can find it this time and not encounter the things we have encountered. ”

"What the hell have you encountered?" the stone cuts to the point.

"We set up camp near the ruins, my wife said it was the city gate, but we couldn't get there for the time being, between the two stone beasts was the quicksand waterfall, there was a cave on it with sand gushing continuously, like a pump, the sand was flowing very fast, we judged that the entrance was in this quicksand waterfall.

And the whole pit is like a trap for ants and lice, it is a large cone-shaped funnel, and people will slide down when they walk on it, although they don't know what will be under the funnel, but as long as they fall into it, they will be buried alive by the sand. Once the sand gets into a person's mouth and nose, it quickly suffocates, and the pressure of the sand is much greater than that of water, and if I hadn't been pulled up in time, I would have died in a few minutes, and would have become a mummy in a few hours. Lao Li looked serious, not like a joke at all.

"The next morning, a couple of the team members had headaches, and I just thought they were suffering from heat stroke, so I gave them a break and then got on with the task.

The team members are going to give up and go back and think about it in the long run. And I came up with a way to use a pickup as an anchor, stop at a distance, connect me with it with a rope, venture down to the sand falls, and then enter the city gates. Although my wife didn't agree with me doing this, I thought that if I missed this time, I wouldn't know if I could find the ruins in the future, and I didn't want my wife's efforts to be in vain, and she couldn't beat me that time, but the result was ...... It's all my fault!" Lao Li became emotional, and the wood motioned to the stone not to disturb Lao Li, waiting for his mood to calm down naturally.

Lao Li's eyes were already moist, and after a while, he continued, "I'm sorry, I can't control it." "Actually, he has controlled and suppressed it very well. "I almost slid down the bunker, I didn't need any strength at all, I took two Luoyang shovels, stuck them in the sand, fixed one and then pulled up the other and stuck it in front of me and so on, the whole body was inclined and prostrate on the surface of the bunker, and then I barely moved to the side of the stone beast.

The waterfall flowed directly into the bottom of the pit, and I found that the stone beast was standing on a platform, and there were several steps at the same height as the stone beast's feet, which seemed to lead to the sand fall. I put my hand into the sand waterfall and tried it, but it was so heavy that it was hard to lift my arm. But it doesn't look like the wall of quicksand is very thick, and you just need to hold your breath to pass through it. I pulled the rope three times, and showed the people to put it in as many as possible so that I could go in, but I didn't know that they had put all the ropes on their hands, and they couldn't see me from above.

As soon as the rope was loosened, I took a deep breath of air, closed my eyes and mouth, and walked into the sand falls, the huge pressure made my chest suffolate, and I almost opened my mouth to exhale all my breath. My baseline is about 60 seconds, and if I don't get out at 30 seconds, I have to go back, and it's really hard to hold my breath in the sand.

Smoothly, after about ten seconds, I felt a sudden decrease in pressure, and after entering, there was a lot less sand flowing on it, and I had already passed through the sand falls. I opened my eyes, turned on my flashlight, adjusted to the darkness, and saw a sight that I will never forget, there was no gate at all, and in front of me was a high wall of corpses! It was a wall made of thousands of corpses! These corpses had lost their moisture and dried up like mummies!"
