Katsuko shrank in an angle, not daring to look at us or to speak, I pushed him with my hand several times before he said in a weak mosquito voice, "I didn't see clearly...... Nothing was heard, nothing was seen. ”

Zhang Siyuan sneered: "You turn around and run, you don't even see what the monster looks like." Aren't you always dragging your feet when you encounter something, how did you open it this time? Hu San and Uncle Lu are carrying you and saving you at a critical moment, you did the right thing this time. ”

Wang Linshuo shook his head with a straight face, didn't look at Shengzi, and walked straight to the side to find Wang Zhen to ask for cigarettes. I looked at Katsuko, whose face was as red as a boiled shrimp, and I really wanted to pick him up and beat him, but I knew that with his strength and physical condition, even if he jumped, he would only be killed. I wanted to say something soothing to ease the atmosphere, but as soon as I thought of what he had done, my heart was on fire, and my nose was sore and trembling, and I was about to rush to the sky, so I had to go to the side and squat down, holding my head to calm down.

Wang Zhen threw the cigarette case to the ground, and each of the four took one, and the light was red in the dark. Zhang Siyuan, who usually doesn't like to smoke the most, is unskilled in holding a cigarette, looking sad, with words in his mouth, and he doesn't know what he is muttering. I still have a glimmer of hope, thinking that Hu San and Uncle Lu are so powerful, maybe they won't be folded in the Yongdao where they don't even know their names. But then I thought that if they had escaped, they would have fled back the way they came, and I had not heard a single footstep for so long......

I was about to shed tears, and I was about to raise my hand to wipe it, when I heard the sound of Si Si Suo from the door. My heart trembled suddenly, and I quickly raised my head, and saw that Katsuko had walked to the door at some point, and was squatting on the ground with a flashlight, his facial features were distorted, and his expression was quite strange.

I thought to myself, what kind of moth is this kid going to do? I threw the cigarette butt on the ground, ran it twice, shook his foot with a flashlight, and said impatiently, "What are you doing?" ”

He didn't answer me, but still lowered his head to study the bottom of the door, and muttered in a low voice, "How can there be such a lock here......"

I looked at him in surprise, Wang Zhen stood up and said hurriedly: "How can there be a lock hidden under the door?" We've seen it a thousand times, and there's not even a crack. ”

Katsuko frowned, shrunk in, and said timidly: "Of course the bosses can't see it, this lock is hidden inside the door...... It is a lock peculiar to our local area. ”

Wang Linshuo's eyes widened in surprise and his mouth widened, Wang Zhen threw the cigarette and rushed over to grab him, almost shouting: "Can you open it?" ”

Katsuko nodded, adjusted her posture, and her eyes were almost on the door. My heart, which had been stiff, began to come alive again, and I bent down as he did, and there was nothing in front of me but the black-and-gray bricks.

Zhang Siyuan's eyes flashed, and he stared straight at Shengzi and said, "What is the matter with the local unique lock you said, should every household use such a lock?" ”

Katsuko's eyes stared at the airtight door without blinking, and said in a deep voice: "There were really a lot of people who used this in the past, but then it gradually declined, and now no one in the village knows about it, and I also heard my grandmother say it when I was a child." It is said to have come from an ancient kingdom that had perished, and the lock was hidden in the door, and an iron rod attached to the lock was firmly embedded in the ground, and the chain could only be broken by finding the different bottom brick and knocking it off. When we first came in, I couldn't see that there was such a lock on this door, and I thought it was a wall, but now why is it showing again? ”

I ignored his questions and asked eagerly, "What is the difference?" We've looked at all the bricks, but we haven't found any traces. ”

Katsuko's face suddenly stretched, and her eyes sparkled. He gritted his teeth and squeezed the wound that had stopped bleeding, wiped the blood that had just flowed from it, and carefully smeared it on the bottom three floor tiles. My breathing began to rapid, and my heart began to rise to my throat, and I secretly said that it was quite evil, a bit like an ancient sacrificial ritual.

I looked over and over again, but I couldn't find anything special about these three bricks. They are no different from other bricks in terms of color and size. Even Zhang Siyuan, who had the best eyes, was confused, he looked puzzled, touched Shengzi and said, "Why don't you take action and look at it?" You have to tell me what the difference is with this brick, I can't figure it out after looking at it for a long time. ”

Katsuko said: "This thing has to be soaked in liquid to soften before it can be brought down, and when it dries, it will only be extremely hard and invulnerable, even if the bomb comes." ”

Wang Linshuo and I glanced at each other clearly, and I thought distressedly, it was really a waste of the last detonator. Katsuko glanced at the brick, pointed to it and continued, "You guys come over and take a look, have you noticed that the grain in the middle of these three bricks is in the opposite direction of the other bricks?" ”

Wang Zhen scolded in surprise, and his nose was almost against the brick and said, "Damn, it's really like this." The designer's heart is probably thinner than a hair, who can notice this kind of detail? I've looked at it hundreds of times and I haven't found it. ”

Wang Linshuo shook his head and smiled: "I want to be friends with this talent." To be able to design such a lock, the power of observation and careful mind must be beyond ordinary people. ”

Zhang Siyuan scratched his head, watched the blood slowly seep into the bricks and said, "Is this lock very big, why do you get three pieces at once?" ”

Katsuko picked one of the bricks with his hands, and he deducted a large piece of skin from the brick that was originally as hard as diamond. He continued to move his hand as he said, "I guess it's to confuse us, it's a waste of time, I usually see only one piece that is different." In the past, there were really a lot of people who used this, but then it gradually declined - this is normal, it is troublesome and easy to be opened, and this method is also to prevent outsiders from the village. ”

Several of us started to help him pick it, and Wang Linshuo sighed: "In that case, this little gray building must have been designed by someone in your village." It must have been the chief controller who found a craftsman from the village and followed him deep into the desert. ”

I am very reluctant to hear the words "chief controller" again, because it reminds me of Uncle Lu and Hu San. I pretended not to hear, biting my lip and picking at the bricks hard, but I heard Katsuko suddenly scream, and the ecstasy in his voice almost overflowed.

I hurriedly looked up and saw a pencil-thin chain peeking out of the potholed bricks. My nose was sore, and I couldn't hold back the surging emotions anymore, so I grabbed the chain and pulled it violently.

The chains weren't as hard as I thought they were, and I had two severed chains in my hands before I could put on the scissors. Katsuko, who was weak to speak, actually stood up at this time, and he hurriedly shouted: "Drag, grab one and drag it out!" ”

I threw one end around, grabbed the other one and pulled it out slowly, for fear that I would break it in a moment. With the sound of iron chains rubbing against masonry, I threw a thin and long chain to the ground, and there was a faint sound of heavy objects falling under the door. Wang Zhen shouted, scolded and kicked the door open.

Fresh air and cold winds were blowing in my face, and countless stars shimmered in the black velvet sky, and I could not hear anything but the sound of my rapid breathing, and at that moment I seemed to see heaven, and seemed to be in a solemn picture. I don't know if it was excitement or cold, I couldn't help but shiver, stroking the goosebumps on my body, my lips trembling, although a thousand words in my heart, I couldn't say a word.

Zhang Siyuan stroked his chest, with tears in his eyes, and said with emotion: "Although it is dark in front of me, it seems that it is brighter than day. ”

Wang Linshuo grinned and said with a smile: "It feels good to be alive again." ”

My heart stirred, all the negative emotions dissipated, and I couldn't help laughing heartily: "I thought that I couldn't turn the situation around this time, and I was bound to die, but I accidentally found a way to live, which feels cooler than winning the five million lottery, which is a great gift from God." ”

Wang Zhen held the limping Shengzi on his back, and said with a smile: "This time we have to walk at night, I can still walk faster on my back, and it is warm." ”

Driven by the passionate emotions, everyone was in high spirits, and even their steps were lighter than usual, and the injuries on their bodies seemed to heal in an instant. The five of us talked and laughed, and went straight to the destination, about to dig out the herb and have a grand slam to save our lives completely.

At the beginning of the hour, everyone didn't think anything of it, but the cold wind drilled into the cracks of people's bones one by one, even if I draped the yellow robe on my body, I couldn't stop the obscenity of the cold wind even if I accelerated my pace. Zhang Siyuan's clear nose flowed out like water, and almost fell to his mouth several times. Wang Linshuo's upper and lower teeth kept fighting, and the squeaking sound made me can't help but shrink, my teeth moved like eating popping candy, and every cell in my body resisted.
