Chapter 41: The Millennial Lamp Trough
"It doesn't matter, now it's all about whether it can be lit up or not. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Pangolins can't be sure if the light trough can still work."
"Haven't you seen it?" Just now, the pangolin also introduced this light trough, but now I was confused.
The pangolin shook its head.
"Then you still say it like the truth!" I don't mean to blame the Tao.
"I'm inferring, you know, I believe my inference is correct, but I can't open the top half, and this thing can't be raised, so I can't tell if there's any oil in it that can work." The pangolin went on to explain.
I tried it, but I really couldn't open the upper part, it was fixed there, and I couldn't lift the whole slot, or connect it far away, it was one.
At this point, I could only see his appearance clearly when I stood in front of the pangolin, and I could recognize it as him, the light was already faint enough to see the distance of several meters, and the flame was what we needed urgently.
Not far away, it is still the location of the hometown of Chu, and there is light in the dome above, which is the light that the Zhang brothers also shot with a flashlight below.
I took out the lighter and faced the pangolin, he knew that I was looking at him at this time, so he nodded, I played the lighter, presumably a few people in front of the Yanwang Palace had seen it at this time, and then I carefully moved the flame to the trough that had been dusted by the pangolin.
The fuse rope in the trough was probably made of cotton or something, and when the fire was extinguished, it was solidified by a mixture of grease and dust, and it was so hard that the flames roasted on it, and when I took the lighter, it was not lit, but only hissed.
"Try again." The pangolin looked at me and said.
I brought the flame of the lighter closer, and the wick that had been extinguished thousands of times on the barbecue, hoping that it would be lit again to illuminate the dungeon.
Then, the hissing was still there, and there was a foul smell, and I took the lighter, and the tiny flame burned on the wick, and I was so excited that I thought I could light it now.
Then, as soon as my lighter went out, the flame on the wick went out as well, and we fell back into darkness.
"That's not right, it should be lit at once, and then the flames immediately went along the trough, igniting all the troughs filled with grease, and suddenly the dungeon became bright, like day." I don't understand.
"Don't rush, take your time and try again." The pangolin comforted me and gave me a smile.
The re-lit lighter has begun to get hot, and if you can't light the wick anymore, it is estimated that the lighter in your hand should explode.
I changed my squatting position to a kneeling position, knelt on the edge of the trough, bowed my back, took a deep breath, and extended the flame of the lighter back to the wick, and for a moment, until the lighter was really hot, I extinguished the lighter.
After the lighter was extinguished, the flame in front of me was still there, and this time it succeeded, and the wick was lit.
At this time, the other four people who saw the flames all came to this side, standing quietly on the edge of the trough and watching with bated breath.
The first wick burned, the flame grew bigger and bigger, the trough was full of wicks, the distance was very close, the first wick was lit and grilled a few around it, and then lit them, and several around were lit, the flame was bigger, and it also roasted the wick next to it, and just like that, the part in front of me was all ignited.
"Quick, get some dust out of the trough and make it easier for the flames to go elsewhere." I watched the flames move slowly and burn forward, and said to the man with the shovel in his hand.
So a few people with shovels, including me, started to shovel on both sides of the trough, and we had to speed up to let more wicks burn, otherwise the Zhang brothers would appear immediately.
A few men cleared a section of the trough, and the flames gradually lit up, and grew brighter and brighter in front of us, and the fire was so great that it was several feet high, and we had to retreat so as not to be roasted by the fire.
"It's still too slow, it's going to be faster." The pangolin stared at the fire that was gradually burning away on both sides, and said with dissatisfaction.
"It's already good, it's a miracle that it's been more than 2,000 years and can still be lit, and there's no way to slow down." Yang Gang stared at the fire and said lightly.
Maybe the grease in the trough is solid, so it takes some time.
Then, a moment later, something even more exciting, pop, and the flames immediately rushed along the trough towards the north side of the dungeon, as if a lot of water had suddenly been added to the trough and flowed forward, and then there was another pop, and the flames on the other side rushed to the south.
"They're over there." At this time, there was a shout from the side of the Chu Palace, and it was the people of the Zhang family who saw that there was a fire on the side of the Yan Palace.
"It's been discovered." Yang Gang shouted with a panicked look on his face.
I said to him calmly: "It is natural to be discovered, it is certain, as long as there is a fire in the underground palace now, no matter where we are, as long as we don't make a big noise, or see us, they can't find our specific location." ”
"Now let's go!" Yang Gang said again.
When it was time to leave, the fire was ignited from the Yanwang Palace, and it could naturally be judged that we were on the side of the Yanwang Palace, and they would definitely appear here.
"Well, let's go!" I nodded in reply.
"So where are we going?" Shangguan Yaxiong then asked.
I glanced at the pangolin, and the pangolin immediately told everyone: "We don't plan to go far, let's go to the palace of King Zhao." ”
"Aren't we going into the Yan Palace?" Shangguan Yaxiong asked, after all, we are now in front of the Yan Palace, "And the most dangerous place is also the safest place, they would definitely not have thought that we would actually hide in the Yan Palace." ”
I nodded at Shangguan Yaxiong: "Well, that makes sense." ”
The pangolin also smiled, and then moved, running towards the north of the Yan Palace, I couldn't help but say, pulling Shangguan Yaxiong to follow behind the pangolin, and Lao K immediately caught up with me.
"Old K, you're back." I said to Old K.
"I'm back?" Lao K thought he had heard it wrong, because all the way was behind Shangguan Yaxiong.
I winked at Lao K and nodded, Lao K stared at me, then glanced at Shangguan Yaxiong, and was extremely reluctant to say to me: "Okay, brother, we are really good brothers!" ”
After Lao K complained, he immediately turned his head to go to the pad, and followed closely behind Yang Gang.
"I'll go to the back, that kid probably won't be able to cover it." Shangguan Yaxiong looked at my hand holding her wrist and whispered.
"What did you say?" During the run, I didn't hear Shangguan Yaxiong's words at all, and while she was wearing a mask, she spoke quietly.
"I'm afraid that your brother will make a mistake, I'll change him, and I'll go back." Shangguan Yaxiong said, and with his other hand took away the hand I was holding her wrist.
"You have to be careful!" I instructed Shangguan Yaxiong.
In this team, Shangguan Yaxiong is the only woman, and she is also very young, I am afraid that she will be fooled, if it is compared to fists and kicks, she should have no problem.
"Don't worry!" Shangguan Yaxiong smiled back at me and ran to the rear.
"Damn, that's a brother!" Old K ran up to me and yelled at me.
I looked into his eyes, he was pretending to be angry, it seemed that he was hurt in front of Shangguan Yaxiong again.
"What's the matter, brother, I'll take care of you, didn't Shangguan come to replace you?" I said to Old K with a smile.
"You're embarrassed to say that she drove me back as soon as she went, and I thought she was going to accompany me." Old K's face was aggrieved.
"It's because you're thinking too much!" I couldn't help laughing, but I couldn't help it, "Haha." ”
