I landed for a few minutes, I was completely blind, my brain didn't know what was going on, I didn't know if I was dead or not, and then a spicy liquid squirted out of my throat and flowed backwards into my trachea, and I coughed incessantly, and blood spurted out of my nose and onto my chin.

It took me half a cigarette to recover, and I felt that little by little I was returning to my body, I sat up trembling and leisurely, it was pitch black all around, I couldn't see anything, I touched the ground, it was all dry stones and sand, the bottom of the moat was dry, fortunately these stones were quite smooth, otherwise I would have fallen to my death.

The gas mask was cracked, the lens was broken, I touched it, and found that the entire gas mask was sunken in, and then I touched the front, and found that there was a very sharp stone where my face fell, it seems that thanks to the protection of this mask, my face was not broken, but this time, the gas mask is completely useless.

I pulled off the buckle with difficulty, carefully untied it from my face, and when I reached my hand, the mask cracked into four petals, and I could no longer take it back.

Without the mask, the smell of sulfur in the surrounding air is even stronger, but after a few puffs, there seems to be no major discomfort, it seems that the degree of poisonous gas here that Panzi said is not true, or the air quality under the moat is okay. I cursed, threw the mask to the ground, spit out the blood that remained in my mouth, and looked up.

The moat can be at least ten meters high, and the top is gray, I can only see the fat man's flashlight shining down from above, paddling around, as if searching for me, and I can hear some screams, but I don't know if it is because of the fall, my ears are full of buzzing when I just landed, and I really can't tell what they are talking about.

I tried to scream a few times, but as soon as I breathed, a sharp tearing pain spread from my chest to all sides, and my voice suddenly turned into a moan, and I didn't know what I was talking about, or even if I was making a sound.

In order to let the fat men know that I was still alive, I picked up the gas mask I had just thrown away and slammed it on the ground so hard that it made a 'pop' sound. The sound was not loud, but at the bottom of the quiet moat, it bounced back, and it was very eye-catching.

After knocking for a while, suddenly a cold smoke was thrown down from it and landed next to me, I cursed and dodged it, and then I saw the head of a person above poking out of the section of the bridge, and the size of the head seemed to be fat.

I crawled over, picked up the cold smoke and waved at him, and he saw it at once, and screamed, but I couldn't hear what he was talking about, so I made a few meaningless sounds, and the fat man retracted his head, and in a few moments, he threw down a rope from above, and swayed to the bottom of the riverbed, and the fat man began to climb down with an automatic rifle on his back.

More than ten meters is the height of the fourth or fifth floor, said that the height is not high, said that it is not short, the fat man slipped to the bottom all of a sudden, let go of the rope and pointed around with a gun first, to see that there was no movement, then ran over, squatted down and asked, "Are you fucking okay?"

I was hoarse and said weakly, "Are you okay? Do you fall once and try it? ”

When the fat man saw that I could still joke, he breathed a sigh of relief and whistled at the top, and immediately, Panzi and Junzi also climbed down from it with their equipment on their backs.

They picked me up, first helped me to a rock to the side, let me lean on, and then asked Junko to hold me down, take out the medical kit, and check my body.

When I saw the medical kit, I felt a little relieved, and said that fortunately, the preparation was sufficient, Panzi was sure that I didn't have a fracture, took out some bandages, helped me bandage a relatively large wound, and then scolded: "Why are you still jumping if you stop, and you will lose your life, otherwise how can I explain to the third master if you die?" ”

When I heard this, I was furious and scolded: "You still say that I, I am in mid-air, you just stopped, this is not a videotape, you can rewind-" Before he finished speaking. Suddenly, there was a cramping pain in his chest, and the person almost twisted.

Pan Zi was startled when he saw it, and hurriedly held me down and told me not to move.

I gritted my teeth and wanted to scold him, but it hurt so much that I couldn't even speak, so I could only gasp there.

The fat man handed me the kettle on the side and said, "But you are also a fortune teller, such a height, and there are stones below, ordinary people will definitely not die and be crippled." ”

I took the kettle, and said that this should be called a cheap life, just now it must have been because of the two iron chains, I didn't die, and I don't know if it's luck or bad luck, I've been encountering this kind of thing like falling from a high altitude recently, and I can't die, it's really going to be old.

After drinking a few sips of water, the blood in his mouth was washed away, and his throat felt a little better, so I asked him what it was just now, and Panzi said that this time they saw it clearly, it must be a strange bird, and it was very big, there was a person so tall, but unfortunately it didn't hit, otherwise you can see what it is.

The fat man said: "Damn evil, the person I saw on the Shinto side just now may be this thing, a human-headed bird, maybe an owl." ”

Junko looked at it and said, "It's strange, those strange birds don't seem to fly down anymore." ”

I also looked overhead, and sure enough, the invisible pressure just now was obviously gone, and nothing swooped down again.

"Is there something strange here, they don't dare to come down?"

Pan Zi was also a little hesitant, and the fat man said: "That's it, I'll go around first, if there may be a problem here, let's go up immediately, you stay here, Xiao Wu, you take a rest first." ”

I nodded, and Panzi said I'll go with you, and the two of them walked in both directions.

Not long after, the fat man who was searching for us whistled at us, as if he had found something.

Pan Zi raised the gun horizontally, looked in the direction of the fat man, only to see that the fat man had walked out along the bridge, the flashlight light was blurred, in the range of his flashlight, we saw a large black shadow behind him, there seemed to be a lot of people standing in the darkness in the distance, the black shadows were staggered, and there was a continuous one, and I couldn't count how many there were.

We were all on guard, Panzi clicked on the bolt, and Junzi pulled out his hunting knife. Panzi shouted at the fat man, "What's the matter? What is it? ”

The fat man shouted from there, "Come and see." ”

Judging from what we felt on the bridge just now, the moat is nearly 60 meters wide, and it is very deep in both directions and directions. Compared to the sheer width of the river, the place where the fat man stood was not far from us, but because of the thick darkness around us, we couldn't see clearly what his flashlight shone on.

Still, listening to the fat man's tone, there doesn't seem to be danger there.

Junko looked at me and asked me if I could go, would I like to go and see? I nodded, and he helped me up, and the three of them limped and walked towards the fat man's place.

The bottom of the moat is full of uneven black sè stones, the size of some stones is very terrifying, you can see that when the original repair was chiseled, it must be a very huge project, and the large staggered black sè shadows that the fat man shone out were located under the piers of the stone bridge above.

I walked to the side of the fat man with difficulty, and the shadows became clear, and I walked closer, took the flashlight from the fat man's hand and shone it, only to see what it was.

Where the fat man stood, there was a fault in the riverbed, under the fault was a ditch about one meter deep, the ditch was about twenty meters wide, countless ancient figurines and horse warriors of black sè life-height, and the remains of the carriage mixed with bronze were arranged in the ditch, continuous, close to a few of them, you can find that the surface of the figurines is seriously corroded, the faces are blurred, the facial features can not be distinguished, many figurines are still holding bronze vessels, and it is a rotten piece of green.

Most of these figurines were standing, leaning on extremely dense leaning, and many of them had collapsed and shattered, piled up crookedly. From my point of view, the eye and the light of the flashlight seemed to be all these things, a large black shadow, at the bottom of the imperial tomb of Yīn Sen, how it did not feel creepy.

"What are these things?" Junko saw it for the first time and was dumbfounded.

"It's like a funeral figurine, it's a chariot and horse figurine, a symbol of the welcoming or imperial procession—" I stammered. "Strange, how the hell is there such a thing here? Shouldn't it be placed in an underground palace or a burial pit? ”

The fat man also knows this stubble, and also thinks it is strange, this place is the imperial mausoleum, not a place for child's play, the number of things in the underground palace, and the decoration of all the funeral goods in the burial pit are quite exquisite, unlike the mausoleums of the general palace nobles, which can come with xìng. The imperial mausoleum pays attention to a gas, a momentum, this practice of piling the funeral goods in the open air, is equivalent to a piece of mouse spot on a piece of high-quality white jade, the taboo of the taboo, if the emperor saw it at that time, it would definitely be raided. Although Dongxia was a small and hidden country on the border at that time, since Wang Zanghai, who was famous for building the mausoleum, would definitely not make such a low-level mistake.

The fat man climbed down the ditch, picked up the gun with one hand on guard, and shone a headless figurine with a flashlight with the other, and said to me: "Look at the costumes, it seems to be Yuan clothes, the clothes of ethnic minorities." As he spoke, he wanted to touch it with his hands.

I reminded him, "Don't move, this thing is mysterious, it's here, there may be something strange." ”

The fat man disagreed: "I'm afraid of a ball, can I still survive?" But my words still had some effect, he retracted his hand, picked up the gun, held the flashlight in one hand, and pulled out the hunting knife in his waist with the other, and pestled the figurine a few times, the figurine did not respond, he turned his head and said, "The real thing, stone man." ”

Panzi looked curious, and also climbed down the ditch and walked to the fat man, I still looked a little uncomfortable, and said, "You guys be careful." ”

The fat man waved his hand and showed disdain to talk to me. He put the hunting knife back into the holster, tried to lift the nearest figurine, and asked, "Xiao Wu, what are you doing in this business, are these things worth anything?" ”

I nodded and told him: "This thing is a bit fancy, not to mention the whole, even some people want it, I know that the head of a terracotta warrior is worth 2 million, or Meizi, those horse heads are less than human heads, more precious, the price is not good." ”

The fat man glanced around regretfully, showed a distressed expression, and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity, this thing is not easy to bring-"

I still feel very strange in my heart, these things really shouldn't be here. People say that every thing in the ancient tomb has a story behind it, and these things should have something special here, or a story, so what was the intention of the designers at that time?

Judging from the distance between the two sides, the ditch where these figurines stood was located at the deepest point of the moat, and when the imperial tomb was first built, these things should have sunk to the bottom of the moat, hidden by the water, and the blurred faces of the figurines are also evidence that they were submerged in water for a long time. In other words, after the construction of the imperial tomb was completed, the people above could not see the existence of these things.

So what's the point of putting these figurines here? Could it be that these are construction waste, defective products of figurines? Did the craftsman be lazy and sink this garbage into the moat? It's not like it, it's so neatly arranged, it's not like a way to stack defective products.

I really can't guess the thoughts of the ancients, I sighed in my heart, if I hadn't fallen, I wouldn't have been able to see what was under the bridge at all, it was also a coincidence, did God want to show me something?

At this time, the fat man suddenly sighed and said: "Have you noticed that all the figurines here are facing in one direction, doing walking movements, which is very different from what we see in the market." ”

I didn't notice it, but as soon as the fat man said it, I followed his meaning and looked, and sure enough, it was.

Originally, it was a very common thing for the funeral figurines to be arranged in one place, and I had never seen a messy situation, but the walking action that the fat man said was very peculiar, and I had never seen it. I carefully shone the lower part of the figurines with a flashlight, and suddenly, a strange feeling came over me.

"These people—" I said, frowning, "as if on the march." ”

"March?" Panzi looked at me.

I nodded: "Judging from the clothes of the carriage figures, this is an imperial procession, you see these horses, these cars, the movements of these people, they are all walking towards the same place, these figurines are arranged like this, their movements seem to indicate such a dynamic scene." ”

We all looked in the direction of the procession of figurines, and we saw that the long line of strange figurines stretched into the darkness deep in the moat, and it was impossible to see where their 'destination' was.
