Chapter 12 Shark Skin
Then we gathered to the edge of the crescent-shaped hole, and I kept thinking of the crystal green water and the moonlight from the patio. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Look at the hole in front of you, the soft soft sand of light brown that used to be under your feet has formed large and small lumps, hard as stone. The patio cave at the head also gathers into a dense rock formation. Even the bend of the emerald green water became a dark pit, and the contrast was so great that it brought me back to reality.
Curious, I looked down into the hole.
In the range of the naked eye, it is not so invisible, but the approximate depth cannot be estimated.
At this time, Feng Xin patted Qian Yan's shoulder and said, "It's troublesome."
Although the meaning of the mouth is to ask for others, but that tone is simply an order, I muttered in my heart.
Qian Yu patrolled back and forth around the edge of the hole a few times, looking east and west, and saw that after she chose a fixed point, she fixed the climbing rope, and fell down with one hand, climbing the rock wall neatly, without a trace of superfluous movements. It was as if the lacerations on her body had no effect on her, and I could only admire it.
In the blink of an eye, Qiancai's figure is only the size of a palm, and he is familiar with his skills, showing extremely high climbing skills.
The three of us looked at each other, and soon she seemed to have stepped to the bottom, when she was the size of a soybean, and the bottom of the hole was unexpectedly deeper than I thought.
After shaking the top of his head in a circle, he looked up and beckoned to us.
Feng Xin saw this, didn't say a word, pulled the mountaineering rope step by step and slipped down, I only then found out that this rope was prepared for us by Qianyu, and she didn't even pull the rope when she went down.
Ziche originally asked me to follow Feng Xin, but he took it. But I told him that I had never climbed, and I didn't know where to start when I saw Feng Xin go on like this, and he moved fast. Ziche nodded, shook his arm, picked up the rope and pulled it back as he began to explain to me how to lower his feet and grasp the rope. I don't have a lot of understanding, I don't know much about it, but I can't stay on top all the time. Seeing that Feng Xin had already landed and the car was halfway there, I began to figure out how to grab the rope.
With the first foot under the body, learning to squat and pedal the sub-car, it doesn't seem to be so difficult.
I glanced at the black paste of people and animals spread out on the earthen platform again, and my heart was filled with indescribable sourness. He lowered his head, took a deep breath, fixed his position, and slid down.
I skated very slowly, partly because I was new, and partly because the wound on the knuckle was stinging and painful. It cracked again in the bare fist fight with the human and animal just now, and when the palm of the hand slid over the rope, it was so painful that it almost collapsed. But I was already in mid-air, neither up nor down, so I could only grit my teeth and force myself to hold on. While comforting myself that this pain is nothing, the hard shoes are not unworn, and I have stepped on high heels to practice dancing before, but I still haven't survived. (Hard shoes are professional ballet shoes, the front end is made of multiple layers of cloth glue, leather, and brackets, which are quite hard, and the dancers' toes will break the skin and bleed due to friction when practicing dance, and the practice process is quite hard.) )
In the process, I noticed that the stone crack in the wall of the bend was not very large, and it was much smoother than the edge of the stone staircase, and it seemed to me that there was no room for my fingers to exert force. Qian Yan can actually judge where to start with just a few glances from the side, and she can be so neat like a gecko, she really has quite a lot of experience, and this is by no means the kind of kung fu that can be practiced by just indoor rock climbing practice.
The three of them, even if they are women, are not ordinary people.
Suddenly I feel so weak, and suddenly I don't know what I'm doing? Didn't you come to find someone? How did he get dragged into such a strange game all of a sudden, in less than a day, he encountered strange fish and giant insects that he might not have seen at all in his life, and he fought with zombies like a movie. Thinking about this mess in my head.
While still thinking nonsense, he slipped to the bottom of the cave in a daze.
But...... I'm not sure if that's the bottom of the cave.
The moment my foot hit the ground, I instinctively shrank back.
That's not the ground.
The touch frightened me a little, and my legs were clamped, and the whole person was clinging to the rope. Now that I think about it, it's a bit like a little monkey who is learning to swing a rope.
Ziche looked at me with a bad look and said with a smile, "It's okay, come down!"
"That's right! I recruited you only when I made sure it was 100 percent safe." Qian Yu also pouted, as if it were accusing me of not trusting her.
I put the pad on my toes again, and then I pressed the ball of my foot down, it was not the ground, it felt very elastic, and I stepped on a very tight spring pad, but it was much more stable than the spring pad. I saw that the three of them walked back and forth freely, and I had the audacity to start looking east and west.
The "black spring pad" under the foot has a sheen that resembles a pearlescent reflection, but it is not noticeable. There are a few places that are quite bright, and a few places that are a little darker, and I still don't know what I have under my feet, but I feel that the things under my feet are very strange.
Feng Xin suddenly said, "We have arrived at a place where there are no ancients before, and it seems that the people who used to sacrifice will finally stand on the sacrificial platform above."
"What? Never before?" The most I think my lines are questions, I think.
"Hmm. Look at your feet." I looked at my feet as he said, and he continued, "This is a merman skin, made of many merman skins, and it is used to seal the tomb. It's still so tight, it means that no one has destroyed it, I don't know how long ago, no one has dug it up since these mermen sealed this place, otherwise it wouldn't be so complete. Looks like what we want is under this skin."
"What? ...... with leather Seal the tomb?"
He said, "Yes! Haven't you heard of it? Didn't someone seal the coffin with real human skin in ancient times? I see that this custom is passed down from here."
"Nope!" I can't imagine it's the first time I've heard of a book made of human skin or a lantern cover used to seal a coffin. I think of the skinless human body that I have in Japanese schools, and I just feel disgusting.
"Mermaid skin will become as hard as iron after degreasing, air drying, and salting, but it is as soft as silk, and the toughness is excellent, and it is said that it is the best material for dressing, but I didn't expect this thing to really exist." When Ziche said this, I just thought that the fuck was all tongue-in-law, and it was a rhetorical thing. What the hell is hard as iron and soft as silk, what kind of uniform? Who would say this now, thinking that he was acting in ancient costumes?
What made me pay more attention was Feng Xin's words, he said that what they were looking for was here, and I was very, very curious about what was buried in this Nuwa tomb.
The instinct that they were looking for something had something to do with my non-existent memories, with the weird dreams I'd been having over and over for years. I actually wanted to ask them, but every time the question was choked in my throat, the voice just didn't come out, and a voice in my heart told me that it wasn't time yet.
Swallowing my saliva, I kicked the mermaid skin of the tomb with my foot, and I thought it was an answer for myself.
"And how are we going down?" I asked.
