Chapter 29: Alone on the Road
I don't think it's okay to go on like this, if I keep being scared, I'm afraid I'll just be trapped here by my fear, and I have to shift my attention and wake myself up from my fear.
I began to force myself to think about things, and when I thought about it, I thought of glasses.
I began to wonder about the behavior of my glasses, and I took advantage of this gap to calm down and organize my thoughts. Along the way, the performance of the glasses proved that he really didn't know much about this ancient tomb, but how did he know that there was a mechanism under the stone statue? It can't be a coincidence like me, right? No, I suddenly remembered that he had said something in the side hall - "Don't let the contents out!" Then he led us into the main burial chamber, and then we ran into the monster crawling out of the coffin.
In other words, he knows very well what is in the ancient tomb, and all the ignorance he shows about this ancient tomb is pretending, but why should he pretend not to know? What is his real purpose?
I think there is a possibility that he is with us for the purpose of achieving a certain purpose, and if he wants to achieve that goal, he must be with us, and he needs to pass through the main burial chamber above, and thus enter the area under the stone statue, but the appearance of the beard broke his plan, he knew that there was that monster in the coffin of the burial chamber, and that monster was a great threat, and when he saw the beard chiseling open the coffin, he knew that something was broken, so he said that he could not let the contents out.
However, the contents still came out, and he had to change his plan, so he took the initiative to attack the monster, causing chaos, and asked everyone to help him attract the monster, and then he himself took the opportunity to enter the space under the stone statue, so that we all became his victims, which is too vicious. I'm not suspicious, it's just that we seem to have gone through too many coincidences so far, and it's obvious that someone designed it.
This reasoning seems reasonable, but there is a doubt, since he knows this tomb very well, why didn't he come down with his own people, but with those of us who have nothing to do with it? He worked with me and explained that I could help him deal with the bugs. So what do they have to do with Yu Su?
Now I can come to the conclusion that I know this tomb very well, and that he kept us by his side not to cooperate, but to use, and now that we have to use it in advance, we have to use it in advance. Thinking of this, I was a little worried in my heart, if the glasses knew about this ancient tomb, then the route he chose must be the correct route, that is, the area under the stone statue he entered was the correct route, and the area I entered was probably the wrong route!
According to the direction of the eight stone statues according to the distribution of the eight trigrams, the position of the stone statue I was in when I fell down was exactly opposite to the place where the glasses went down, according to the arrangement of Qimen Dunjia, if he was the door of life, then I was the door of death! This thought flashed in my mind, because I didn't study these things, and wanting to think deeply about this aspect of the problem would only make my thinking more confusing, and my understanding of Qimen Dunjia was just an impression of speculation after all.
I took a deep breath and tried not to let myself think in a bad direction so as not to cause my fear to recur.
Judging from the current situation, if you want to find your father, you must ensure that you can survive and get out of this area. I took out a pack of compressed biscuits, chewed two pieces against the huge nausea, rested for half an hour, and recovered my strength at its best, so I was ready to go on my own.
Behind me was a hard stone wall, which gave me a direction, and I had no choice but to hold up my phone and walk into the darkness ahead.
The liquid area wasn't very large, and soon I came to the end, the ground was exposed in front of me, and the space on both sides became very narrow, and only two people could pass side by side, I thought it was a tunnel leading somewhere.
I put my phone in my mouth, climbed up to the ground with my hands propped up, and entered the corridor to continue walking. The walls of the tunnel are the same as the liquid area, and they are all of the same hard black rock, and there are obvious signs of artificial excavation on the rock. There are no murals in the corridors here, let alone secret doors, which are very strange and monotonous.
I glanced at my watch, and the hands had stopped turning, and the glass on the surface had shattered, apparently broken, so I threw it away. To survive alone in such conditions, anything that has no meaning can become a liability, even if it is just a watch with a weight of only a few hundred grams.
The time displayed on my phone is eight o'clock, which gives me a little sense of time, at least not to lose my sense of existence.
Walking forward for less than five minutes, I came to a large area, to be exact, this is a stone room, the area of the stone room is not large, there are many coffins on both sides, the coffins are made of crystal, the transparency is very high, before I can sigh about the process of these pipes, through the crystal to see the things inside made me suddenly take a breath, in each crystal coffin, there is a corpse, very similar to the monster we encountered before, the difference is that there is no liquid in the coffin, it can be seen that these corpses are very shriveled, It's a dry corpse.
With the experience of the previous car, I did not dare to touch the coffins, let alone make any noise, so I had to tiptoe out of the stone chamber and continue to move on. Gradually, the suffocating feeling of nameless fear came to my heart again, I always felt that the corpses in those coffins crawled out, and were quietly following me, watching me in the dark, making my back chill for a while, cold sweat broke out, at this time I wanted to run, lifeless running, this environment and state simply cost me my life, and finally I rationally suppressed this thought, after all, no matter how terrible the environment is now, but I am still alive, if I lose my sense of proportion and run wildly, This kind of self-deranged behavior can kill oneself.
In the next period of time, almost every ten minutes away, I came across a stone chamber full of crystal coffins, and I was astonished by the number of corpses placed in this corridor. Not to mention what age those dried corpses are, whether they have scientific research value, just those coffins made of crystal, if they are brought to the real society, they will shock the world for a while. Although I don't know much about Chinese culture or art, I can see that those crystal coffins are quite exquisite. I am amazed at how much manpower and material resources were needed to produce such a large number of crystal coffins in ancient times when productivity was low, and how the ancients found such abundant crystal minerals!
After passing through several stone chambers where crystal coffins and dried corpses were placed, I began to feel numb, and the feeling of fear was gradually trapped in the depths of my heart by the numb nerves, and I couldn't help but sigh that sometimes it is good to be insensitive.
After passing through the eleventh stone chamber, and no twelfth stone chamber appeared, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, because it was really painful to walk on tiptoe like this. The corridors here began to widen, and murals appeared on the stone walls on both sides. I looked closely along the way, and the murals depicted a large engineering scene, and on the murals, I saw a lot of coolies consigning some huge rocks, and from the background, it was supposed to be a desert. On the back side of the project, there is a large mountain, and the reason why it is considered a mountain and not a sand dune is because the mountain is angular and angular, and the mountain is bare and without plants, and there are many people standing on the mountain, holding chisels and other things, as if they are digging rocks.
The coolies carried the rocks down the mountain, loaded them into wagons, and walked out of the desert. On either side of the long convoy, followed by a number of escorted troops, the appearance of which can prove that this was certainly a government project at the time. On the military flag of the army, there are two seal characters written, although I don't know the seal characters, but one thing I am very sure of is that the time of this project should be in the Qin and Han dynasties, definitely not the Ming and Qing dynasties, which once again caused me to question, the tomb owner of this tomb is a figure in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but this tomb has appeared in the Qin and Han dynasties, the Tang Dynasty and the Ming and Qing dynasties, there is no logic!
The following mural is not connected to the previous one, but depicts a dense jungle with a small lake at each end of which outlines two mountains in rough lines.
Erlong Mountain! When I saw this, I realized that the scenery depicted on this mural is very similar to the topography of Erlong Mountain. But the remaining murals are very blurry, as if they have been eroded by sulfuric acid, all uneven spots, and nothing is visible on the murals.
I shook my head, intending to move on, but as soon as I took a step, I suddenly tripped over something, it seemed that I had just been so absorbed in the content of the mural that I didn't even pay attention to something under my feet. Luckily, my balance was good, and I just stumbled forward and didn't fall. When I subconsciously looked at what was under my feet, my scalp exploded and I took two steps back.
