Volume 1 Tomb of the King of the Empty Mountain Chapter 37 The first floor of the Tower of Babel
I called the fat man and said, "Fatty, don't turn it over, we have to go, or there will be no time!" ”
The fat man hurriedly picked up a jade bi and ran into his pocket, saying, "Oh! Come on! "Come on, run towards us.
I said to Qin Lin: "Xiao Linzi, we can go, otherwise we will be left here." Qin Lin nodded and remained silent.
A few of us and those foreigners followed Qin Lin to the side of the Tower of Babel, I don't know what's going on, there is always an ominous premonition, but I can't say it, in short, I can't put it down in my heart.
We walked for five minutes, and we were getting closer and closer to the Tower of Babel, and at our current speed, we could feel it in about ten minutes, and along the way we could also appreciate the luxury, magnificence, and wonder how powerful the Queen Mother of the West was at that time, and also sighed at the tragic experience of the Queen Mother of the West.
"It's incredible!" A foreigner next to him said with his mouth open.
"Hehe, how is it, did you see the prosperity of our Chinese nation at that time? This is still some trivial small buildings, in the future, you will mix with your brother, and I will give you a long experience. After saying that, he patted his chest.
The foreigner returned the mother's true letter, and hurriedly agreed: "OK, OK." The fat man looked at me triumphantly, and I pursed my lips to show that I looked down on the fat man.
The fat man said: "It's okay to follow me, but you have to pay me 10,000 yuan, even if it's tuition." "That foreigner is really, stupidly agreed.
I said, "Fatty, don't lie to people, who doesn't know your little tricks?" Just know to deceive some ignorant people. Fortunately, Ming Qing didn't hear it, if he heard you digging people's family, Ming Qing would have to kill you. ”
When the fat man heard this, he said with a disdainful face: "Heh! What's wrong with me fucking liaring to him? Back then, the Eight-Nation Coalition robbed us of China, and at that time robbed us of many good things, I was making up for the country in disguise, if you don't understand, get out of the way, don't delay your fat man and me to do business. ”
"Hey, hey, fucking fat? How dare you talk to me like that? I think you're tickling! With that, he hit the fat man.
The fat man couldn't react and pushed me to the ground, and the fat man "Oops! With a bang, he staggered up and shouted at me, "Damn! I'm sick! Did I provoke you? You just push me! I didn't touch your fat man's big teeth, I'm going to touch them, I'm not done with you. ”
I contemptuous "Hey, hey." smiled and said: "Hehe, fat man, you have a lot of adults, adults don't remember villains, I'm wrong, wrong, I'm damned, okay?" The fat man nodded with satisfaction.
I took the water cup that Haotian gave me, drank a few sips, and spit it out, I thought it was water at first, but I didn't expect it to be wine, I understand that Haotian rarely drank wine, it was Beijing Erguotou, I couldn't stand the excitement and spiciness, so after spitting out all the wine, I poured a few mouthfuls of water into my mouth, which eased up.
Haotian saw my embarrassment and said, "What? And not used to the second pot head? ”
I shook my head and said, "No, I'm not used to Erguotou, but I'm not used to liquor at all." After saying that, he spat a few times.
Haotian let out an "oh", took a sip of wine, and said, "I'm fighting with your second uncle at your age." With that, he took another sip.
I said, "How am I like you, my family doesn't know what's going on, they don't let me practice kung fu since I was a child, they only let me go to school and study, I'm like a little bird in captivity, without freedom." ”
Haotian took another sip and said, "I think they must have something to do by doing this." ”
I tidied up my backpack and threw away everything I didn't need, ready to pack light.
After walking for about ten minutes, Qin Lin stopped, and we looked at the front of us, a huge Babel Tower stood in front of us, and the Babel Tower stretched all the way to the top of the entire canyon, and its height was not visible.
Qin Lin said: "Pack up your things and travel lightly, it's very dangerous, and if you're not careful, you may never recover." ”
"How do you know?" I asked.
"I don't know, I just know that I'm familiar with this place." Qin Lin looked at the Tower of Babel.
Pengzi asked, "Then what's in here?" ”
Qin Lin just looked at the Tower of Babel, and after a while, he said, "I don't know, I just know that this Tower of Babel has three floors, and each layer has a different pattern. ”
The fat man and I stared at each other and whispered, "How does he know so clearly?" The fat man shook his head.
After we packed our things, the group arrived at the door of the Tower of Babel.
"Hey, anyone? We're here as guests, so if we don't dislike it, can we stay for one night? The fat man knocked on the door.
Qin Lin pushed the fat man aside, gestured a few times on the door with his hand, and said: "This door is not an ordinary door, there is a strong acid on it, as long as a person dips a drop, you can burn it clean." ”
After hearing this, the fat man hurriedly climbed on me and touched his face, and said, "How is it?" I'm okay, right? ”
I said, "It's okay, you haven't been touched, what are you afraid of?" ”
Only then did the fat man put his mind at ease.
I saw Qin Lin put a thin needle into a hole in the doorknob, upside down back and forth, I didn't know what I was doing, suddenly, I heard a "click", and the door opened suddenly.
We scrambled to probe inside, Qin Lin looked back and smiled, rushed into this room at once, and disappeared after a while.
A few of us were dumbfounded, not shouting to believe the scene in front of us, I rubbed my eyes and said, "What...... What's going on? Why did it disappear? ”
The fat man shook his head, and the fat man said, "Is this a hell of a life?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, this good person can't disappear for no reason, there must be some mechanism." Haotian said.
"Anyway, we'll have to go in and have a look." Ming Qing said.
A few of us reluctantly walked into the first floor of the Tower of Babel.
The first floor of Babel is a hall to put it bluntly, there is nothing special, let alone a coffin, not even a small urn.
However, the furnishings inside are almost perfect, it is a typical combination of the Central Plains and the Western Regions, which has both the architectural characteristics of the Central Plains and the unique beauty of the Western Regions.
The walls inside are covered with inscriptions and seals, as if a lot of things have been recorded, but since I can't read the ancient characters, I simply took pictures and looked at other places.
The fat man has been there and doesn't know what to do, rummaging through the cabinets there, hey! It's supposed to be looking for a bright device, this dead fat man.
According to Qin Lin, this Tower of Babel has a total of four floors, and we are now on the first floor, and we only need to climb three floors to reach the top.
Since there is nothing of value on the first floor, you can only go to the second floor to have a look.
On the edge of the interior of the Tower of Babel, there is a staircase that rises from the bottom of the contoured disc and rises into the sky.
Our group walked to the stairs, and as soon as I raised my foot to go up, Ming Qing stopped me and said, "Don't act rashly, there may be white phosphorus on this staircase." After speaking, Ming Qing took out a piece of paper and wiped it on the stairs, and the paper instantly burned.
Just when the paper burned on me, the whole staircase burned, the scene was quite spectacular, like a fire dragon, we retreated three points, the fat man hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up, put out the fire, this is going to burn, how can we go up!" ”
I pulled the fat man and said, "Fatty, you can rest assured." The stairs are treated to withstand high temperatures. ”
The fat man breathed a sigh of relief.
I discussed it with Ming Qing and said, "We don't know how long this fire will burn, so we have to discuss what to do next." ”
Everyone discussed, and Pengzi said, "Otherwise, let's look here first to see what clues there are?" I looked at Mingqing, who nodded.
So we started looking on the ground floor.
The first floor probably looks like this, there is a hall in the middle, and there is a room on each side, I and the fat man are looking in the hall, Ming Qing and those foreigners are looking in the room on the left, and Haotian and Pengzi are looking for the room on the right.
And just like that, we began to look through it carefully.
The fat man still turned the entire table, chairs and other furnishings upside down according to his previous habit, and there was still no clue.
At this time, Haotian also came out and said, "Have you found anything?" We don't have anything. The fat man and I shook our heads.
At this moment, a piercing scream came from the room where Ming Qing was, accompanied by the gunshot.
Seeing this, the four of us immediately rushed over, we broke in, but saw Ming Qing lying on the ground, trembling, the panic on his face had not dissipated, at this time there were two foreigners lying on the ground, I hurriedly rushed to the side of the foreigner, touched his breath, and was out of breath.
I asked Mingqing, "What just happened?" ”
Ming Qing still looked panicked, and said, "I...... I didn't know it, but I saw a dark shadow running past, and I fired a few shots because I was scared, and then ...... There is no then. "Ming Qing has been shivering.
I frowned and whispered to the fat man, "Put it on for a little mingqing." ”
The fat man whispered an "um".
Turned around and pulled Ming Qing up and asked, "Are you okay?" Ming Qing shook her head.
I then asked, "Did you find anything?" ”
Ming Qing still shook his head, at this time the fire outside had been extinguished, I pulled Ming Qing and the fat man and walked out.
I looked at the stairs and Mingqing, and always felt that something was wrong there, and whispered to Haotian, "Do you think there is anything wrong with Mingqing?" ”
Haotian said: "You can see it too?" ”
I said "um" and said, "It seems that Ming Qing is trying to come here for a purpose, Ming Qing we have to be careful, don't fall for her, lest we can't eat and walk around." Haotian whispered a soft "um".
I sorted out my thoughts and looked to the side of me, only me, Fat Man, Haotian, Ming Qing and Pengzi were left.
I looked at them, nodded, and walked up the stairs together.
