Chapter 35: There are people on the top of the mountain
We followed the gentle slope at the base of the mountain, went around to the back of the cliff, and then windled up the jungle for four and a half hours to reach the top!
At this moment, the sky has not yet darkened, a little later than Huang Shaoze expected, but a gentle drizzle has begun to float in the air, and this trend seems to be getting bigger and bigger!
Although we were all very tired at the moment, we all knew in our hearts that we had to go down to the platform under the cliff before the rain fell, otherwise once the rain came, our previous efforts would be in vain!
Fortunately, everyone's hearts were relatively united, and as soon as we reached the top of the mountain, we began to prepare separately. Under the unified command of Cai Changsheng, Wen Chengyu got off the rope, Huang Shaoze tied up the equipment, and Lao Wang and Xiao Li assisted from the side, and the work progressed in an orderly manner!
The monkey and I had other plans, and we had all read the manual, and knew that there was a robbery hole on the slope of this hilltop that allowed us to enter the tomb, and if we could find it, we would not have to venture down the cliff with great difficulty.
But things don't follow our wishes, the weeds and shrubs on the slope have covered the whole area, and the sky has begun to darken, I and the monkeys can't find the thief hole for a while, and then come back to see Cai Changsheng and them, the climbing rope has been set, a total of two hundred meters long rope suspended from the top of the mountain, they are almost ready, they can start to go down the cliff at any time!
I walked to the cliff and looked down, only to see a long line drawn by the drizzle to the bottom of the cliff, and two ropes running vertically, long enough for us to reach the platform on the mountainside. However, the mountain wall is very steep, just look at it like this, my heart is somewhat bottomless, if the hands and feet are loose and slippery halfway, you have to fall into pieces! After all, the male hygienist fell from here thirty years ago!
As soon as Qiē was ready, Wen Chengyu was the first to climb the rope and slide down the cliff. Everyone was lying on the edge of the cliff and looking down, only to see that Wen Chengyu was sliding very slowly, and the stones on the cliffs along the way were all kicked down by him, and he hung on the rope while swinging from side to side while slowly descending, every movement was extremely difficult!
It took about half an hour for Wen Chengyu to go down to the platform, followed by Lao Wang and Xiao Li, who climbed a rope and went down at the same time, and it took about half an hour to reach the platform.
Then only Cai Changsheng and me and the monkey were left, Cai Changsheng asked me and the monkey to go down first, and he came to break off!
I tied a rope with the monkey and was about to go down the cliff, but Cai Changsheng suddenly stopped him, only to see him take out two chopstick-like things from the bag and give me and the monkey one, I took it in my hand and found that it was a pen, a voice recorder! The pen I was given to me also had the word "Yang" engraved on it.
I didn't realize that I glanced at Cai Changsheng, only to see that he took out two black things from his bag and handed them to me and the monkey respectively, how could I not recognize ten things at first glance!
I only heard Cai Changsheng say: "I hope these two things for the two of you can be put away, and each of us has them!" This voice recorder can be used to write, but also to record, if there is anything found in the tomb, you can record it at any time by voice, each person's voice recorder is engraved with their surname, which will be an important basis for our future data archiving or investigation! ”
Cai Changsheng paused and then said: "This second thing, I think the two of you have also seen it, this is a black donkey hooves sealed for thousands of years, the tomb is somewhat unclean, although we are engaged in scientific research, but there are some things that cannot be explained even with science, so it is better to carry it than nothing, it is said that it can ward off evil spirits!" ”
Cai Changsheng laughed out loud again after speaking: "Although the donkey hooves sealed for thousands of years are **dirty, they are not worth mentioning compared to the gold talisman of the two masters!" But if you bring more, you will always be sure! After that, he checked the rope joints for me and the monkey.
After listening to Cai Changsheng's words, I began to feel a little nervous, and only then did I really realize that we were about to enter the tomb, and I don't know if we would encounter those weird and terrifying things in the tomb again.
After Cai Changsheng explained some things to us, he watched me and the monkey slide down the cliff along the rope.
At this moment, the sky has completely darkened, and the rain is much heavier than before, climbing the rope to the cliff and going down, the cold wind blows my body shivering, I can't see the situation under my feet at all, I can only vaguely hear Huang Shaoze's voice from time to time from the distance under the cliff, which makes my heart feel a little more steady.
By the time I arrived at the platform with the monkeys, my hands were frozen and unconscious, and although we were all wearing warm and non-slip gloves, the gloves were insignificant in such harsh environmental conditions!
We took a break on the platform and put on our headlamps, but luckily we were all wearing raincoats, otherwise we would have to freeze to death in the cold! I stood on the edge of the platform and couldn't help but take a look, through the pillar of light from the headlamp, I saw the continuous rain line straight under the cliff, and a layer of white mist rose in the depths of the cliff, I couldn't see how deep it was under the platform, I felt a chill in my heart!
We eased our feelings a little, and planned to wait for Cai Changsheng to come down and discuss the matter of entering the tomb together.
While waiting for Cai Changsheng, I and the monkey Wen Chengyu took a look at the structure of the hanging coffin in advance, and saw that the lid of the sarcophagus had been pushed open half, half-open and half-hidden, and the hole was just enough to accommodate a person to enter!
I shone my headlamp into the coffin, and it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything!
……
At this moment, suddenly, I heard a long scream from the top of the mountain, the sound was extremely violent, shaking through the valley, and the echo was everywhere for a while, and everyone was frightened and their backs were cold!
"Lao Cai...... Not down yet! The voice just now ......" Huang Shaoze said immediately, and he could hear his voice trembling!
"That's not right!" Wen Chengyu immediately replied: "The scream just now...... It's not Lao Cai's! ”
When I heard this, my heart trembled even more, and I unconsciously asked, "On the top of the mountain...... And someone else? ”
Just when everyone was in shock, suddenly, on the cliff on the side of the platform, two white snake-like things fell straight to the bottom of the cliff from top to bottom...... Someone cut our climbing rope!
