Out of the hole, in the empty space, the extremely cold wind howled, as if the three of us came to the Arctic land alone, in the darkness that could swallow all the light, the spotlight flashlight showed its due role, under the strong light, showing a straight extension of the long steps, each step is cut by the huge rock into a square overlapping upwards, a careful count, about only about twenty or thirty, but just this few boulder steps stop in front of us, as if thousands of miles away.

Because the height of each staircase is enough for one of us, the overlap between the boulders and the boulders is very compact, and it is difficult to insert even a single hair into it, which makes us wonder who built this place in the first place, and what method was used to cut the boulders so neatly and flatly, which has some similarities with the pyramids of ancient Egypt, is there some connection between the ancients?

The long stone steps in front of me made me think, the pyramids of ancient Egypt, said to be mausoleums, in fact, in my opinion, more like a place of sacrifice and rebirth, every pharaoh firmly believes that he will see the light of day again in the near future, so will the people who built this needle not insert into the stone steps also have such thoughts?

Perhaps, it is only by climbing up that it is possible to know a little bit of the truth, but I dare not imagine what price we will pay when we really get close to the truth.

It's not impossible for the three of us to climb up, but it's very difficult, as if this long staircase was not meant to be walked by people, but a giant, but you must know that it is impossible for the whole world to find such a big person, unless in ancient mythology, in fact, whether it is Northern Europe, Greece, or even China, in the record of that scroll, it does describe such a group of people, as if they really existed.

However, we all know that it is just a myth.

But how can I explain the stone steps that appeared in front of me?

"It's kind of ridiculous." I shook my head, trying to put aside my cranky and unrealistic thoughts, "Maybe it's just the vanity of the ancients, pretending to be mysterious." ”

Hou Jun looked at me in surprise, "You mean to climb up and take a look?" ”

I nodded. The old man next to him bent over, bent his legs and looked up, and said bitterly: "My father, you are just looking for something to do, so long, so tall, do you want to exhaust me?" ”

No matter how hard the old man complains, he must climb on it, I explained, "There is no other place to go here, only this long staircase that looks like a road, and if we don't try it, we will only starve to death or freeze to death here." ”

The old man was silent, and didn't answer the mouth and ripped it off, he understood this truth, but he just didn't want to face it.

"Let's go up!" Hou Jun suddenly walked to the bottom of the stone steps and squatted, carrying his back and saying: "Old egg, step on it, you are not tall enough, you are overweight, you want to climb up, it is estimated that the graves of Brother Yun and I are grassy, so you can come up quickly!" ”

It was originally quite touching, but as soon as he said it, the old man suddenly blushed and kicked up unceremoniously, and said while crawling: "This is the reason why you helped me?" More than I can talk nonsense, do you feel like I'm that heavy? ”

After climbing up with difficulty, he stepped down with his foot, and Hou Jun, who provoked him, lifted him up and shouted: "Next, you climb by yourself, Lao Tzu will not wait." ”

Every time we walked the stairs, we had a very difficult time, and when we looked back, we didn't even reach a third of the way, and we couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and there was darkness ahead, and we didn't know what would be waiting for us.

I don't know how long it took, maybe an hour, maybe two hours, in order to save power, we were climbing in the dark, maybe it felt like we had reached the middle part, Hou Jun couldn't help but turn on the flashlight, and looked at the distance from the front to the top of the customary way.

Above his head, a chaos similar to a dark cloud, with a little light blue color in it swirling and rolling, like a king-sized spiral cloud, and the end of the stone steps actually extended inside, and the next second, Hou Jun said tremblingly: "I don't think we should go any further, there must be no exit there, it must be the gate to another world." ”

Compared to the huge whirlpool cloud and the huge stone steps, the three of us were like three little ants, struggling powerlessly, and at this second, I didn't know what to say, because my heart couldn't calm down at all, and my mind was already a mess.

"They must be sacrificing to some kind of god, just like we guessed before!" Hou Jun looked at the swirling clouds that flashed light blue, and muttered: "Perhaps, the road we are treading on is the realm that leads to that god, Lao Li, this is a long step connecting the earthly world and the realm of the gods, let's go back." ”

Lao Dan also nodded in agreement, "This whirlpool cloud is like a video I once watched on the Internet about the flow of the Gulf of Aden, the boiling Star Gate incident during that time, the things on our heads and the phenomenon are really similar, Lao Hou is right, the other side is unknown to us, not to mention the invisible gods in the past, maybe we haven't crossed that hurdle, we have been torn into slag by the rotating energy, maybe not even slag." ”

Their words are true, but when I look at the strange whirlpool cloud that can rotate, I slowly grow a longing in my heart, a desire to understand the world clearly, and after all this, I feel more and more that the world is very vague and I can't see clearly.

I suppressed the imitation in my heart, and slowly said to the two of them: "I am eager to know everything in front of me, no matter whether the truth is good or bad, I don't want to be an ignorant pig again, live carefree like that, and then put it into that narrow box with the unknown of the world, regretfully, so, brothers, let's take a look together, whether we live or die, at least we understand, get close, some unknown source, we should feel worthy of this life." ”

Hou Jun sighed, lowered his head for a while, then raised it, and said: "If there is no you on the way back, even if Lao Dan and I escape and ascend to heaven, we will not have the slightest joy, and we will even be sad for a lifetime, guilty for a lifetime, when we are old, maybe as you said, leave with ignorance of the world, it is really a great pity, okay, what I said is not very good, I join!" But the premise is that if the danger is already greater than the lives of the three of us, no matter what lies ahead, we have to turn around and come back! ”

I smiled reassuringly, agreed with what he said, and looked at the last person.

The old man pouted, "What do you all think of me, do I have a choice?" Without you, even if you give me a heavy machine gun, Lao Tzu will throw his life on the way, forget it, wherever you go, I will follow you, or I will say something touching? Feed! Feed! What are you two doing with such a crawling action, I haven't said a testimonial, I'm damn! Wait for me! ”

The old man jumped on his short legs, Hou Jun and I stretched out our hands to hold him, and said with a smile: "Of course we will wait for you!" ”

PS: Properly add a little human touch, do you feel that the characters have become plump?
