Chapter 139: The Footprints Pit

The position of the two of them is now far away from the dead man's village before, obviously the ground on another rock wall, San'er is standing far away from the remains of those wooden frames, the light of the torches can only illuminate the strange traces on the ground, and the strange traces on the ground are not very clear, and they have no choice but to go up to the second floor, so they have to walk next to the broken wood and look down, only to see that behind the wooden wreckage, there is a string of things that look like footprints, but they are not very similar, because if a normal person walks, he must be touching the ground under his feet, But San'er's footprints on the ground in front of him are only half now, as if this person is walking on tiptoe.

Zhang Renshan didn't observe San'er so carefully, and walked over from the wooden wreckage that he kicked down, squatted on the ground and took a look: "I said San'er, what is this thing left behind?" Why does it look like a horseshoe print? ”

San'er listened to Zhang Renshan's words and was happy: "What horseshoe prints! You're taking a good look at it, it's clearly left by people, and besides, how can horses come in this kind of place! ”

"That's not for sure! If the group that came here to carve before had a good path, the horses might have been able to come in! Zhang Renshan stretched out his hand and clicked on the footprints on the ground, which were only half the size.

The wooden frame was kicked down by Zhang Renshan, and the whole was paralyzed on the ground, and the wood that composed the wooden frame before was naturally broken, and none of them were intact, San'er turned his head sideways and looked at the torch in his hand, the rags that were originally poured with fire oil for burning were already about to burn to the head, and after a short while, they all had to be burned out, and then the wooden stick used to make the torch had to be thrown away quickly, otherwise the fire oil on it would have to flow along the wooden stick with the fire to his hands. didn't have much time to think about it, San'er lowered his body and pulled out a broken piece of wood from the wreckage of wood on the side, patted it on the ground, and it was not too rotten, and then handed the torch in his hand to Zhang Renshan, and with both hands, he removed some strips of rags from his body, took out the small copper kettle full of fire oil that he had picked up before, poured some on it, and then wrapped the strips of rags stained with fire oil around the broken end of the wood and fixed it. San'er didn't light it for the time being, but walked over from the wreckage and stood on Zhang Renshan's side: "Let's go!" Let's run out of torches! ”

Nodding, Zhang Renshan held the torch that San'er handed over just now and walked forward, the two walked along the strange half-human footprints on the ground for a while, San'er turned his head and looked at the current position, which was already far away from the edge of the rock wall, as if he had walked to the depths of the cave, and the half-human footprints on the ground were still crooked, extending further in front of the two, Zhang Renshan took two steps, and suddenly turned around and said to San'er: "San'er, why do I feel that something is wrong?" Doesn't seem like the way to the outside? We're getting deeper and deeper now."

San'er looked at Zhang Renshan, patted him and pointed to the strange footprints on the ground, and said, "You didn't see it until now!" This footprint was originally all the way to the inside, I never said that this road is going outside, it is all your own thoughts, and this footprint is not left by those working stonemasons, let alone horses, Xian'er, you always have preconceived ideas, what is this kind of thing like when you see it. ”

"I ...... I didn't say you said it! It's just a casual conversation...... So according to you, these footprints are not those people, and who will leave them? Zhang Renshan looked down at the road and looked at the strange footprints on the side.

"Didn't we all say it before! These stonemasons have had to leave here for a long time, and those rusty chisel heads can prove it, so naturally these footprints are not possible at all, and even if they are, they should be flooded with dust, but if you look at these footprints on the ground now, they are obviously left recently, let's not care what the thing that left these strange footprints is, but at least it shows that this place must be leading to somewhere, otherwise who will be idle and run here." San'er bent down and squatted on the ground, pointing to a half-human footprint and spoke.

The air was quiet for a while, and the two didn't have too much quarrel, after all, it didn't matter if this kind of thing was said, the torch in Zhang Renshan's hand kept crackling, and the fire jumped and jumped, although the light was higher, but it was not a good thing that this sound came out, which means that the combustibles on this torch have been completely burned out, and now the wooden material of the torch is being burned, or it will not take long for the flame on the torch to slowly shrink and finally burn into the wood, San'er knew that it was almost now behind Zhang Renshan, so he handed the torch in his hand to Zhang Renshan's hand, the new torch was lit up and the effect of burning oil was very good, but the smell would be a little bad when it first burned up, the two did not rush forward, but waited for the torch made by San'er to burn for a while, and then went on the road when the flame on the top was stable, Zhang Renshan handed over the torch that was about to burn out in his hand before. San'er stretched out his hand and took it, and looked at the surroundings, there was no vegetation and nothing to burn, don't worry about the fire, casually looked at a position, San'er threw the torch over with a force in his hand, only to see the torch flying in the air a few times, falling on the ground, sparks splashed everywhere, but out of nowhere, there was an "oops" sound, Zhang Renshan and San'er were stunned when they heard the sound.

"San'er, did you hear that? It seems to be ...... just now Someone shouted! No...... You hit someone with this torch, right? Zhang Renshan held the newly made torch in one hand and turned his head to look at San'er Dao.

San'er shook his head fiercely: "Xian'er, this is not quite right......

"You still need to say it...... Who is it! Pretend to be a ghost around and let Lao Tzu come out! Zhang Renshan had already pulled out the broadsword on his waist when he shouted, and the torch was handed to San'er, and his eyes were round, staring at the surroundings.

The air around the two of them seemed to be frozen, and there was no movement at all, the torches made by San'er had burned a lot more, the flames on it were no longer beating, and the light gradually stabilized a lot, Zhang Renshan's face was already sweating, and his spirit was highly concentrated, plus Zhang Renshan himself was that kind of aggressive person, all of which made his heart beat wildly, but the two of them waited for a long time, but there was no movement around them, Zhang Renshan's eyes were already sour, and he really didn't want to consume it. After discussing it with San'er, the two began to look around.

The first thing to look at must be the place where San'er threw the torch just now, Zhang Renshan held a knife in front of San'er and held the torch behind, and the two groped their way over.

The torch on the ground that had been discarded by San'er before was still burning, but because the force of the ground that had just hit the ground had made the flame above a lot smaller and could not play the role of lighting at all, Zhang Renshan got a little closer and looked down, there was nothing else around the torch on the ground except for the dust on the ground, San'er walked to the other side and took the torch he made to shine on it, under the light, it seemed that there was something pressed under the torch that he had discarded before, Zhang Renshan saw this and reached out to pick up the torch on the ground, The two leaned together to look at it together, only to see that the thing that was pressed turned out to be just a broken stone, Zhang Renshan shook his head: "Why did I think so?" It's this broken stone again, and it's all over the bottom of the rock wall! San'er, I don't see anything here, let's quickly change places and continue to look for it! ”

After Zhang Renshan finished speaking, he dropped the torch he had just picked up, and turned around to find the source of the strange sound by the light of the fire in San'er's hand, San'er didn't care about him but continued to stare at the stone on the ground, the broken stone was full of holes, it seemed to be weathered very seriously, but the whole was still intact and there was no break, San'er looked at it for a while, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he picked up the broken stone, this stone was not big, only the size of half a palm, However, this kind of small stone is simply countless at the bottom of the valley where the two of them wandered before, San'er stared at the stone in his palm for a while, but Zhang Renshan ran over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "San'er, come here and take a look, you see what I found!" ”

San'er was slapped by Zhang Renshan, and quickly shook his body, turned his head and looked at him, only to see Zhang Renshan's face full of surprise, as if he had seen something amazing, San'er didn't think much about putting away the small stones in his hand, and followed Zhang Renshan to the side, the surrounding ground is not very flat, and there will be uneven places from time to time, obviously unable to compare with the rock wall where the two stayed before, Zhang Renshan took San'er to turn around a few rocks on the ground, stopped next to a sunken natural pit, raised his finger and pointed: " That's it, if I hadn't reacted quickly just now, I would have almost fallen from here! ”

Looking down at San'er, he threw the stone in his hand down the mouth of the sunken natural pit, and the two wanted to wait for the echo of the stone hitting the ground to judge how deep the pit was, but after waiting and waiting, there was no response, Zhang Renshan looked at San'er and opened his mouth wide and said to him: "This ...... This...... This Nima is a bottomless abyss! How long has it been since the broken stones were dropped, why hasn't there been a sound? Thankfully! If I had just fallen...... San'er, let's not think about goodbye in this life. ”

"Don't say stupid things! There is no place in this world that is not at the end, I guess it should be that the stone is blocked by something, so it didn't make a sound, we can't hear it, forget it, anyway, our purpose is not here, it's good to hurry up and leave" San'er lowered his body and looked at the inside of the pit.

Zhang Renshan shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't care, he was just curious, as long as it wasn't something that delayed the business, then it was all for fun, and the two didn't stay long, San'er turned around and wanted to find the way to walk back, Zhang Renshan was already familiar with it, and when he saw San'er leaving, he hurriedly asked him to follow him so as not to go wrong, but the two just wanted to leave, but they heard a crisp sound from the direction of the deep pit behind them, as if it was the sound of something like a stone hitting the ground, Zhang Renshan hurriedly turned his head and muttered: "No! It sounded as if the stone had fallen to the ground."

"Can't! We've been waiting for a long time, and we didn't hear the sound of the stone falling to the ground, so why is it making a sound when it's leaving? San'er shook his head and didn't want to believe it.

"San'er, why are you still quibbling, I didn't say that what you just said was wrong! Maybe the stone got stuck somewhere after you threw it in, but it's possible that the stuck wasn't too good and now it's falling off so it fell to the ground! Zhang Renshan smiled when he saw San'er's look of not wanting to admit the facts.

Now there is no way to continue walking, since there is movement on the other side of the deep pit, even if San'er wants to go, Zhang Renshan will definitely not agree, and in desperation, the two of them returned to the pit where they were just staying, Zhang Renshan looked down at the pitch black, if it weren't for the existence of a torch in San'er's hand, if he really smeared this place, he would kill people nine times out of ten, but even if there was the light of the torch, it could only shine a little around the mouth of the deep pit, and then he couldn't see anything inside. San'er didn't want to come here again, but when he was about to leave, something happened here, and now he could only reluctantly hold a torch to illuminate Zhang Renshan, and the two stayed at the mouth of the deep pit for a while, Zhang Renshan also played enough, glanced at San'er and waved his hand, San'er finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and was ready to leave the surrounding of the deep pit, but at the moment when he raised his foot to leave, his feet were hit by something, San'er hurriedly looked down and saw a rolling stone on the ground swaying and stopping in the distance, Seeing this, San'er eased his heart a little and said: "I'm afraid I didn't pay attention just now, and kicked this stone out", but when San'er comforted himself, the appearance on the stone attracted San'er's attention, three steps and two steps, San'er hurriedly walked to the side of the stone, lowered his body, picked it up, put it in his palm, and looked at it carefully.

With the same size and the same wind erosion appearance, San'er unconsciously widened his eyes and squeezed out a sentence in his mouth: "Isn't this the stone I threw down just now?" ”

Zhang Renshan stood aside and didn't know what San'er had found, seeing that he couldn't stop muttering at a stone in his hand, he hurriedly walked closer to hear what San'er was talking about, but before Zhang Renshan walked to San'er's side, he saw San'er turn around and walk a few steps towards the edge of the deep pit, and then threw the stone down with one hand.

"San'er, what are you tossing about?" Zhang Renshan was really puzzled when he saw San'er's actions just now, so he had to ask.

San'er didn't pay attention to Zhang Renshan immediately, but held a torch and stared closely at the deep pit at his feet, and kept looking down, Zhang Renshan also looked down out of curiosity: "I said San'er, what are you doing?" You just said that there is nothing to see down here, how can you ...... Are you interested now? ”

"Don't talk fairy, I'll explain it to you later!" San'er didn't have the heart to tell Zhang Renshan the reason now, so he stayed by the deep pit and waited slowly for the stone that had just been dropped below to hear back......
