Chapter 9: Hell
What comes to mind when I fall?
I feel like I'm dying.,I don't have time to think about anything.,When it's really at this time.,There's no male protagonist who will appear in the movie screen to recall his "past" and "present" and other memory pictures in an instant.,There's no sad BGM around me;
I just felt pain, it hurt, I was in a position where my waist was down, and my arms and legs were up, so my back was rubbing hard against the rock wall, plus my back had just been injured, this sour feeling, if it weren't for this sense of crisis that I didn't know life and death kept stimulating my brain, I thought I would probably faint directly.
The fall lasted for a long time, so long that I was a little desperate, and then I just felt like I had smashed into a pool of mud, and there were black and smelly things pouring into my eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, and I subconsciously breathed, but my lungs choked on these things, and my arms began to flutter subconsciously, but I couldn't grasp anything substantial at all.
I felt like I had fallen into a swampy place, and this was probably the place where I was buried.
But soon, a hand grabbed my hand, and then I felt myself lifted, and I was dragged to the position of a rock, where I lay there like a toad, panting heavily.
"Smack!"
The light of the small flashlight appeared, first shining in my eyes.
"Are you still conscious?" This is Qin Zixuan's voice.
"Not dead." I wiped the sludge off my face, retched a few more times, and slowly stood up with my hands on the ground, "What's wrong with us?" ”
I didn't know what was going on, I didn't realize that I had found the entrance to the cave by chance and fell down, and I thought I had accidentally slipped into a gap in the valley and entered a cave-like place.
When I was in college in the United States, I knew a Chinese student who was very enthusiastic about this kind of adventure, and he once showed me the photos he took when he went to the cave.
But my clearest impression of that kind of place is the ogre in the "Dark Infestation" movie, so I have always had a kind of reverence for that kind of unknown and narrow area.
"We should be on the periphery of the cemetery now." Qin Zixuan didn't continue to pay attention to me after seeing that I was still conscious, but began to take her small flashlight to check the situation nearby.
From the light of the flashlight, I can see a general idea of the environment I am in now, and the location where I am now and Qin Zixuan is similar to a quagmire, with a curved rock wall on one side and a swampy pool on the other side that I just fell into.
It was black, and I saw some rotting white bones of animals, and I felt sick at the thought that I had swallowed some of them into my lungs, but I forced myself to suppress that stress instinct.
"Let's walk through this building." Qin Zixuan seems to have found a way.
"Shouldn't we wait for them to pick us up?" I asked.
"The crevices are winding, there are many crevices, and we have passed all the way when we fell, but if they find them, there may be dozens, if not hundreds, of options, and we should be about 100 meters away from the ground now, and we have no food and no clean water." Speaking of this, Qin Zixuan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Also, I'm curious." ”
She is very curious about this tomb, this is the nature of Faqiu Tianguan, Qin Zixuan's curiosity about the tomb at least now seems to be far more than my little master.
Qin Zixuan didn't ask for my opinion, she started to walk forward directly, I didn't dare to stay here alone, God knows if there would be other things in the dark mud pool, such as poisonous snakes and lizards, and the flashlight in Qin Zixuan's hand was also the only light source for the two of us.
There is no way to walk here, only to keep climbing on one rock after another, which reminds me of the time when I used to go to the beach to take pictures, and try to walk along the rocks on the shore to make it easier to take pictures.
Finally, after about ten minutes of this, something appeared in front of me, and I mean something man-made.
"Stone lion?" I asked by Qin Zixuan's light.
"Pixiu." Qin Zixuan replied, "This tomb has undergone some deflection due to earthquakes and plate movements over the years, and I don't know if there is any deeper damage inside, this thing should be placed in the ear chamber or side chamber, and should not appear in this place." ”
I know what the ear chamber means, generally speaking, the ordinary burial form is the sub-zigzag pattern, the deepest burial chamber is called the main burial chamber, and the two sides are called the ear chamber.
But there is nothing else here that should be in the tomb except for a stone statue of Pixiu that is tilted upside down.
Qin Zixuan began to look for it, she was holding a flashlight, holding the initiative, and I didn't bother to look for it alone, so I just stood in place.
The air here has a salty and wet smell, but it is still fresh, I am sure that Qin Lao and they will definitely come down to find us, even if my little master is just a mascot, but after all, his granddaughter is still with me, what I have to worry about now is how long it will take for them to find us, there is no clean water source here, and there is no food, I don't know how long Qin Zixuan and I can last here.
Well, I actually thought about whether we could eat human flesh if we really didn't have food.
For example, I eat Qin Zixuan or Qin Zixuan eats me?
I was startled by the thought of this, and then shook my head, ready to scold myself for thinking about what the hell at this time.
But when I shook my head, I felt a little stiffness in my neck, as if something was wrapping around me, I thought it was the side of my neck that had been twisted when I slid down earlier, but soon I realized that something was wrong, and when I reached out and grabbed it, a touch similar to a filamentous substance came from between my fingers.
I clenched my fist and grabbed the things and pulled them down.
"Click.................."
A white shadow suddenly fell, and then I felt something hit on my head, not heavy, but raising a lot of dust.
Qin Zixuan immediately turned to look at me, the flashlight also shone over, I reached out and pushed away the things on my body, it was a piece of clothing, white clothes, and then I saw that I was holding a bunch of things that looked like hair in my hands.
Soon, I confirmed that I was indeed holding the hair in my hand, because there was a skull and skeleton part in the white clothes under my feet, but some of them were actually weathered, but the hair on the skull was still sticking to it, and I don't know why.
Well, this time I'm not so scared, after all, I've experienced a lot in the past two days, and Bai Wenliu did have some effect on the meat opening that Bai Wenliu took me before.
Qin Zixuan inspected the dried corpse, then looked at me, "Where did it come from?" ”
"Overhead."
I replied.
Qin Zixuan shone the flashlight on it, the rock wall was actually less than a meter away from the top of our heads, I didn't care about it before, because there were cracks everywhere here, but this time since I was able to catch a dried corpse from above, it was obvious that this crack on it must be a hidden mystery now.
Qin Zixuan bit the flashlight in her mouth, and then jumped up with her body extremely lightly, grabbing the crack with both hands and lifting herself up in a similar "pull-up" movement.
I waited patiently below, although it was only one meter high, there was no place to climb around, and I didn't have the physical strength of Qin Zixuan.
After a while, Qin Zixuan stretched out his hand and shouted:
"Come up."
I jumped up, grabbed the edge of the crack with one hand and grabbed Qin Zixuan's hand with the other, and then I was lifted up by Qin Zixuan like this, this girl of the same age as me has so much strength, I remembered that it was Qin Zixuan who brought me directly out when I was rolling in the quagmire before.
When I came up, I sat on the ground and rubbed my wrists and shoulders, feeling a little bit of detachment, that is, muscle strain, and when I looked around, I found that I felt like I had entered a room, which was about 20 square meters in size, and there were many cracks on the ground, which was not even at all.
There are also some crockpots and stuff around them, is this the inside of the tomb?
I took a closer look, and saw that there were several other corpses dressed in white, lying on the ground staggeringly, and the one that had been pulled down was supposed to be half of his body exposed, and his hair had landed right on my neck.
It was a coincidence, because there were cracks all over the place, and I couldn't have found the exact location without the guidance of the corpse.
"This is the ear chamber?" I asked.
"It's not the ear chamber, I haven't seen any kind of tomb with the ear chamber placed in the form of a human sacrifice." Qin Zixuan directly denied my words, "There is the exit of this tomb, and when you get out of there, you will probably be able to find out the layout of the tomb." ”
I could only stand up and continue walking with Qin Zixuan, she didn't seem to have any interest in staying to study this burial chamber, as if something more interesting was attracting her.
The door of this tomb has collapsed for the most part, and it can only give people space to squat down and climb over, Qin Zixuan climbed over first, and I followed behind to go out, but when I squatted down, I subconsciously looked behind me from between my legs.
This look,
I was immediately shocked,
For I saw that in the burial chamber behind me, the dried corpses in white robes and clothes that had fallen to the ground were all sitting there in a straight and neat manner.
I swallowed my saliva, at this time I felt cold in my hands and feet, I was not afraid of dry corpses, at least in this place, I was a little immune to corpses, but suddenly seeing such a terrifying scene made me feel a chill in my heart.
At this time, I suddenly remembered that my grandmother seemed to have told me a story when she was a child, and I forgot the protagonist and the plot in the story, but I only remembered one thing.
That is to bend down, from between your legs,
Able to see,
Ghost............
