Lao Zheng decided to look back to see if he had entered the labyrinth or encountered something strange. I just wanted to step back and find that the stone gate had been closed, and there was no way to open it. Although the retreat was blocked, Lao Zheng and the others did not panic too much, and simply continued to move forward, and when they entered the palace, they left marks on the passage and the stone gate of the palace.

This time when they entered the stone gate, Lao Zheng and the others deliberately stayed for a moment, only to see the stone gate slowly closed, and only an extremely subtle sound came, no wonder they didn't find that the stone gate closed automatically just now. There should be a mechanism in the stone door, and once pushed open, a counterforce will be generated, causing the stone door to close on its own.

When the stone gate was completely closed, Lao Zheng and the three of them checked the place in front of them, and it was still the same street. Zheng Guan hurriedly stepped forward to check the mark, the mark was no longer there, it was a mark carved with a knife, and if you want to erase it, it will definitely leave obvious traces. Now the sign is gone, and it just means that the street is not what it was seen before.

As long as it wasn't weird, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, didn't bother to check around, left a mark again, and continued to walk forward. Entering the palace again, the scene is still the same, leaving a mark again. The third time I walked through the stone gate of the palace, it was still the same scene, but the mark left by Lao Zheng appeared in the position of the stone gate of the palace, and if I looked closely, it was the first time it was left. There are some differences between the marks left on the two occasions, so I can be sure of them. After searching around again, he didn't see anything other than stones, Lao Zheng knew that he had fallen into a maze, and if he wanted to find a way out, he had to crack the maze setting first.

Suddenly, there was a light behind him, and there was a thumping sound, and he turned away, facing the light, his eyes ached, and he only saw a vague figure, and he couldn't tell what it was. Could it be a ghost? Lao Zheng and the three of them hurriedly hid in a room, Lao Zheng and Zheng Guan each took out knives, Ahaiti had a May Fourth pistol, some years old, and I don't know where it came from.

The three of them leaned close to the stone gate, not daring to lean in to look, only to hear the sound getting closer and closer, but it was no longer the sound of a knock, but the sound of people walking. Light and shadow shone through the stone window, and then a shadow appeared, stretched to a long age, the shadow resembled a human figure, and the arms, but the ears and neck were missing. The three of them breathed more and more rapidly, and from the looks on each other, they all saw the horror, which was the natural awe of the unknown creature.

At this moment, the shadow shining in from the stone window stopped, and it can be imagined that it was near the stone gate, and only by standing there, would a shadow be projected in. Lao Zheng was nervous in his heart, but his consciousness was still very clear, and he gave Zheng Guan a look, the two grew up together since childhood, and they can be said to have the same heart. Lao Zheng and Zheng Guan are guarding one direction of the stone gate, as long as the stone gate is opened, they will attack at the same time, whether it is a person or a ghost, they have to fight.

The door opened, but it was just a small gap, and the light shone in through the gap, and Lao Zheng and the others were very nervous, staring at the stone door tightly, not daring to relax in any way.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Ahaiti subconsciously opened fire, and the sound of gunfire echoed in the quiet dungeon, the sound was deafening, and Lao Zheng and Zheng Guan's ears hurt, and they didn't come to swing the knife in a hurry.

"Bang."

Another gunshot, this time louder, echoed in my ears, and I immediately felt dizzy. Lao Zheng and Zheng Guan didn't dare to reappear, so they leaned their backs against the stone gate. At this time, Lao Zheng found that Ahaiti's right hand was bleeding nonstop, and a bullet hole was clearly visible. Ahaiti was shot and didn't scream, he rolled and hid next to Lao Zheng, with cold sweat on his head. Lao Zheng only then thought that the second shot was not fired by Ahaiti, so it must not be a ghost outside, and he has never heard of a ghost using a gun.

"Who's out there?"

"Who's inside?"

The two voices remembered at the same time, and when they heard that it was a human voice, Lao Zheng felt a lot more at ease, and he was not afraid to fight. The two sides shouted in the air, agreed to meet, and did not shoot each other. Lao Zheng took Zheng Guan out and left Ahaiti in the house, in case of an accident, he could also have a response, so that the whole army would not be wiped out.

There are a total of four people outside, all of whom are not very old, and they have two rifles, Lao Zheng is also a person who has seen the border army, and these two rifles are definitely the latest military guns. The two sides confronted each other for a while, and Lao Zheng also knew the details of the other party, the archaeological team members from Beijing, this was the first time Lao Zheng saw Qiu Lao, Qiu Lao was only thirty years old at that time, and the first feeling was that this person was good. Qiu Lao and the four scattered with the large army, got lost in the desert, found the tent left by Lao Zheng and the others, and found it all the way here.

After Qiu Lao and the four people came in, they quickly got lost and were trapped in the maze, and when they entered this passage, they found several dark shadows, which were naturally Lao Zheng and the others. Like Lao Zheng and the others, they also thought that they had encountered ghosts, so they quietly stepped forward to check, and without thinking too much, they subconsciously fired a shot, just hitting Ahaiti.

After knowing that it was a misunderstanding, one of the archaeological team members extracted a bullet for Ah Hai and wrapped the wound with Yunnan Baiyao with him, at least saving his right hand. Ahaiti is also a man, and he doesn't care about anything, which is also the best choice. Now everyone is trapped in the labyrinth, and if they fight each other again, even if they can find an exit, they will not be able to get out.

Lao Zheng and Qiu Lao exchanged discoveries about each other, and Qiu Lao gave Lao Zheng the feeling of being dull, but he was not small. The findings of the two parties have one thing in common, that is, the straight street they see actually has a certain arc, but at the position of the arc, the house also protrudes a little, so that the street seems to be straight and straight.

In order to verify it, to measure the width of the street, sure enough, the two ends are longer than the middle, and now it seems that the so-called maze is only composed of three mazes, which was originally a circle, with a special design, it makes people feel that it is a straight line, and it will be a non-stop circle, which looks like an endless maze.

Lao Zheng recalled the ancient tombs he had been to before, and he had not encountered a similar situation, and he didn't know where to start for a while.

"I remember a few years ago, a compass was unearthed in the Taklamakan Desert, and the edges were all stone houses, and now it looks a little similar to this labyrinth." Qiu Lao, who had been silent for a long time, spoke again, looking at that look as if he was trying his best to reminisce.

As he spoke, Qiu Lao took out the pen and paper he was carrying, and drew a sketch, which was a top view, and if you looked closely, it was really a bit similar to the current labyrinth. In the compass, in the north position, there is a line that connects to the central position, if it is really the same as this compass, in the north position of the labyrinth, a certain place is the exit.

Qiu Lao said that the compass, he had only seen it a few years ago, it was made of a boulder, when he thought it was very strange, he paid more attention to it for a while, and inquired, only to know that it was found by the people in the Taklamakan Desert, sent to the government, and later transferred to the Beijing Institute of Archaeology. As for whether it has anything to do with this labyrinth, Qiu Lao is not sure, because he did not study it at that time, what this compass is for.

In any case, there is finally a clue, whether there is a connection or not, go and find out. Someone in the archaeological team brought a military compass, which can still be used underground, and soon found the north, which is where Lao Zheng and the others are now.

According to Qiu Lao's memory, it should be due north, that is, in the middle of the street where he is now. Several people immediately went to the stone house in the middle, which was the same as the previous stone house, and there was nothing special about it. Several people split up and searched, knocking incessantly, trying to find the exit through the sound.

In just two minutes, Zheng Guan discovered that the stone table was empty. Everyone lifted the stone table weighing more than 500 catties, if it was just Lao Zheng and the three of them, it might be very difficult. The stone table was carried away, and in the place of two of the legs, a small iron ring appeared. Lao Zheng immediately thought of the bluestone slab when he came in, and hurriedly took out the rope and put it on two small iron rings respectively, and now there are many people, and they can be pulled at the same time.

With a bang, the stone slab flipped over, and at this moment, a whistling sound came from below, and the terrible scream echoed in the stone house, and a cold air rose, and everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back. What is the sound that is made, not like a human, some feeling of a beast howling, but how can a beast survive in such a place?

Just as everyone was thinking, the sound dissipated, but the chill continued to hit, and in the blink of an eye, the temperature in the stone house dropped by four or five degrees. After hesitating for a moment, everyone decided to go down and take a look, now that there was no way out, there was no choice. Lao Zheng walked in the forefront, Zheng Guan Palace, this is also to guard against Qiu Lao and others, in an unfamiliar environment, no one knows what will happen, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. The passage is actually very wet, and there is the sound of water droplets from time to time, and the diving surface of the Taklamakan Desert is very low, and it is not very unusual for water droplets to appear now. It's just that the sound of water droplets has no rhythm at all, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, which makes people's heartbeat accelerate unconsciously, and after a long time, chest tightness appears, and breathing becomes short, as if they are going to suffocate at any time. Lao Zheng hurriedly hit the stone wall with a knife, and the sound was very loud from time to time, but it could hide the sound of some water droplets, and his breathing immediately returned to normal. Lao Zheng didn't dare to stop, and discussed with Qiu Lao, and he knocked for a few minutes without interruption.

The further the passage goes, the smaller it becomes, it is obviously a downhill road, and you can see traces of water on the ground, and there is a cyan substance, the color is somewhat similar to moss, and the appearance is very different, this cyan is just a thin layer, attached to the ground. Lao Zheng and Qiu Lao and others didn't know each other, and they hadn't even heard of it, and Lao Zheng was very cautious about things he didn't understand, so he first scraped a layer of cyan material on the ground with a knife, and before he could check it, he saw that the cyan substance suddenly disappeared, and only a few drops of water dripped.

If it weren't for many people seeing it, Lao Zheng would only think it was an illusion. Scrape a layer of cyan substance with a knife again, and the result is still the same, turning into water droplets in a moment. Even more strange is that the water droplets fall to the ground and turn into a cyan substance again.

A member of the archaeological team suddenly touched the cyan substance with his hand, and Lao Zheng and Qiu Lao had a bad premonition at the same time, and it was too late to stop it. As soon as the player's hand touched the cyan substance, he saw that the cyan was extending along the fingers and towards the player's arm, which was very fast, and it had reached the shoulder position in a few seconds. At this time, Qiu Lao had already pulled the team members back, but the cyan substance seemed to be connected into a line, and it was not disconnected at all.

Lao Zheng slashed down, and the cyan substance was cut off from the middle, and he regained his calm in an instant. After retreating to the entrance of the passage, everyone stopped, and half of the body of the team member contaminated with cyan substance turned cyan, and the whole person looked numb, and there was no trace of life in the hollow eyes.
