Chapter 33: The Immortality of Man

The beard looked at me, pulled a golden thread from under the skull of the corpse, and his face became a little solemn, and it was the first time I had seen him since I saw him that I had found him so serious, and I couldn't help but get nervous.

"Boy, listen!" Beard said in a rather calm tone: "What I'm going to do next is dangerous, I don't know how dangerous it is, you have two choices now." First, you go back the way you came and go through another cave, and then you face the rest of the way. Second, help me stay here, I'll activate this mechanism later, it will fall, what I'm looking for may be down there, but I can't get up without your help. You don't have to dwell on the outcome of your choice, we don't have a relationship, you can follow your instinctive wishes. ”

"How do you know so much at once? Are you here to rob the grave? "I was confused by what the beard said.

Beard shook his head: "You don't need to know anything, you just need to make your own choice." ”

I said in my heart, how can I cooperate with your attitude? I turned around to leave, but suddenly I stopped, because I realized that as long as I walked out of this tomb, then I had to face everything by myself, the appearance of the beard could not be said to bring me a sense of security, but at least I would not feel helpless and lonely, and from the eyes of the beard, I saw a kind of trust, this kind of trust was like the eyes of my comrades in the army, which made me inadvertently surge a warm current in my heart. So I gritted my teeth, turned around and said, "Okay, I choose to stay." ”

The beard smiled: "Your unhesitating temperament is a bit like a close friend of mine." As he spoke, I saw him lower his head, as if not wanting me to see his eyes, and then I heard him continue: "Okay man, I need to keep this position and not move, otherwise the mechanism will suddenly activate." Now you take the rope out of my backpack and tie it around my waist, and then you pull the other end of the rope, and when I go down, if I shake the rope, you pull me up, ok? ”

I reached out and made an ok gesture and began to act according to the arrangement of the beard, and when everything was ready, I grabbed the other end of the rope, wrapped it around my hand a few times, and said, "Okay." ”

The beard said: "You'd better take a few more steps back, if the depth of the area below is longer than the rope, the force of my fall will bring you down too, you take a few steps back, it's good to have a buffer, if it doesn't work, you let go of the rope." ”

I estimated the length of the rope, at least twenty meters, and if the area below was really deep enough for me to hold on to loosening the rope, then he would definitely be done with it, which would be tantamount to me hurting him, although it was his own decision, but I still didn't want to see that kind of consequence. So while the beard could not see me, I stood still, meaning that I had retreated. Unexpectedly, Hu Zi suddenly said: "You kid, now in this world, there are not many people like you, okay, I'll count one, two, three, count the farts, get ready, I'll go down." ”

As soon as Beard's words fell, I heard a bang, and after less than two seconds, I heard Beard shout: "Fuck! Then there was no movement. I tensed up to accept the strong pull from the rope, but the rope didn't move.

After waiting for a while, there was still no response, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. My heart is broken, maybe the beard is too close to the bones and is poisoned, right? Thinking of this, I hurriedly covered my nose and leaned in, and when I looked at it, I was stunned, the coffin was empty, there was nothing, not even the bones were gone.

Fuck, didn't you cross over! I scolded angrily, and strange things hit my worldview, and my spirit was completely broken.

Then I realized that something was wrong, because the rope in my hand was still there, and I pulled it, but I didn't pull it.

What's going on? I looked closer into the coffin and found that a section of the rope was clamped to the bottom of the coffin, and it was clamped very tightly.

I immediately understood that the mechanism that the beard was talking about was the bottom of this coffin, and the bottom was a door, and when the mechanism was activated, the bottom would open, and then, the beard and the skeleton would fall down. It was the most plausible possibility I could think of, but it was clear that the mechanism was a repeating device, and as soon as the beard fell, the mechanism returned to its original appearance and caught the rope, so that I couldn't pull the beard up, and I panicked.

The insects outside the tomb gate were gathering more and more, but none of them could make a single step, and I felt a little overwhelmed as I grabbed the rope, and finally I decided that I had to go down and have a look.

If you want to go down, you must first ensure your own safety, but the only thing you can use in your hand is this rope. As far as the eye could see, the entire burial chamber was bare, and there was not even a single burial object, and it was impossible to tie the rope to something. I can't help but wonder a little, although this is an ancient tomb, but there is not even a single burial goods, except that the corpse is a bug, the owner of the tomb here seems to be a little poor, even ordinary ordinary people, there should be bottles and cans!

Along the way, the space area seen is less like the architectural structure of the tomb, and it is almost the same as a large warehouse in all directions, and in terms of the secret doors that can only be opened from the outside, it is more similar to the nature of the warehouse.

In the end, I put my hope on the corpses of those foreigners, and maybe they are the only ones who can be used here.

"Excuse me, everyone." I said a word silently, and then began to endure the extraordinary nausea to gather all the corpses together, the strong rancid smell made me dizzy, and I couldn't help praying, these buddies are not the same as the corpses I encountered before, otherwise so many groups beat me up, it is better to feed me directly to the insects.

I tied them up with a rope, and then pulled the rope, it felt very firm, and my heart said that it should be fine, although these corpses have been heavily decomposed, but there are many of them, adding up to at least five or six hundred pounds, and it is very easy to support my weight.

Everything was needed, I recalled the way the beard found the mechanism, and then supported the edge of the coffin with one hand, and jumped into the coffin in a very chic manner.

Life may be very fond of jokes, when you think something will not go wrong, but when you are not aware of it, it will make a mistake, so that you can't react. As it turns out, not everything is perfect, and I thought I was in order, but I was overwhelmed by a very small detail.

The moment when all my weight was applied to the bottom of the coffin, I didn't feel any resistance, and the bottom of the coffin suddenly turned downward, and my whole body fell down instantly. That is, in a tenth of a second, I went to grab the rope in a panic, but before my fingers touched the rope, I sat down on the ground, in the end! The speed of the fall is countless times faster than I thought! Immediately afterwards, a sharp pain began to spread from my waist, and gradually my legs lost sensation, and I immediately took a breath of cold air: "It's over, my waist is broken!" ”

The flashlight was on, right next to me, and his beard was leaning against the stone wall in a very strange position, and the flashlight was on the ground, and his hands were shaking, as if he couldn't even hold the flashlight.

"Why did you fall off too?" His beard was a little weak, and I saw a lot of blood coming out of his leg, and a bone sticking out of his right thigh.

"Your leg is broken?!" I opened my mouth wide, it seemed that he was worse than me.

Beard shook his head and said, "This is the bones of that corpse, he was underneath me, and the scene when he fell was so chaotic that it was stuck in the thigh." How are you? ”

I shook my head, I wasn't much better, I didn't even have the strength to move my fingers now, I said.

"Oh, blame me!" Beard sighed: "I didn't expect such a big magnetic field here, this time it's planted." ”

"What? Magnetic field! I wanted to stand up, but I found that my limbs were as heavy as lead, and I couldn't lift them up, and I immediately understood what Hu Zi said: "You mean, this is a magnetic field, and we are not falling down, but being sucked in?" ”

The beard nodded: "It's basically like this, do you still have the strength?" ”

I tried to move again, the magnetic field energy here was surprisingly large, and the whole person seemed to suddenly increase by dozens of kilograms, and I shook my head, indicating that there was nothing I could do.

The beard sighed and said, "Okay, you try to rest, recuperate your strength, and help me bandage the wound, the abnormal gravity here makes my wound bleed all the time, and I may die if I continue like this, I must help you escape before dying." ”

This sentence moved me for a while, and I felt a little dizzy, I said in my heart no, how did I become like a little woman, and my head was dizzy when I was moved by such a sentence often said in bubble dramas? It soon became clear to me that the vertigo was real and getting heavier.

The beard looked at me and said, "Lie down quickly, in this state of super gravity, it will be more difficult for the heart to supply blood, if you don't want the brain to die of lack of oxygen, it is better not to move." ”

I was pounding at what he said, and I felt that my heart was really going to stop beating, so I lay down on the spot, and soon the dizziness disappeared.
