211: Underground Waterfall
But then again, even if this cave brought us a low mood, but what we needed to do next was not to appear low with the appearance of this cave, after we tidied up a little, three more scouts took the lead, and the rest followed, as we walked deeper into the cave, the area around the cave began to gradually become cramped and crowded, and somehow there seemed to be traces of water under our feet.
I took a look around with a flashlight, and found that there was an obvious line of water on the walls around it, especially in the lower part, which is enough to prove that there was water in it before, and according to the traces of the water line, it should have reached our thighs at least, but now it is not, which is very strange, and it is not difficult to see from the appearance of the water line, it should have disappeared not long ago, from this evidence, It is highly likely that someone has opened a cavern under this cavern so that the original water level is starting to flow low, and if this is true as I suspected, then it is very likely that they have found a way to the main burial chamber.
I didn't think too much about this, turned around and shouted, "There's a good chance they've arrived, we need to speed up!" ”
Hearing this, several scouts took the lead in running forward as fast as they could, although this cave is a little narrow, but fortunately it is not very difficult to run, at best, it is easy to rub into the body, but at the moment, it can take care of these, in case they take things away and run, then we have worked hard this time, and so many people have died to run to this place, then it will be an empty bamboo basket!
This cave is curved and circulating, vertical and horizontal, and there will be a three-way crossing every time we run a distance, and for the sake of safety, we have been running in one direction, but somehow, every time we run for a while, there will be a three-way crossing, after about thirty or forty minutes, the leading scouts stopped, to be honest, running behind them like this, really tired, after all, they are all soldiers and have practiced, it doesn't matter, but for me it is a little unbearable!
"Chief, it's so strange, we just ran this road, and now we're back here!" A scout said
I frowned and said breathlessly, "Really? Then go to the other way, pay attention to the ground, the water here is gone, it is very likely that they are trapped here like us, but they have opened a hole in the ground, so the water has flowed down, as for them, we just need to follow the path they have walked! ”
I am the leader of the whole team, they naturally will not object to my opinion, along this ghost place walked for more than an hour, and finally the emperor lived up to his wishes, we finally found a pit that seemed to be blasted out with explosives, with a flashlight down, bottomless, a soldier on the side took out a cold smoke and threw it down, along the light emitted by the cold fireworks, it is not difficult for us to see that this pit is almost the same size, surrounded by obviously artificially built green tile bricks, And as the cold smoke and fire gradually fell to the ground, the big guy could see clearly that this pit was a road leading to the bottom, and the ground was the stagnant water flowing down from above.
Everyone glanced at each other, and with my order, several soldiers tied the ropes on their bodies together and threw them down, or those scouts went down first, but this time the pit was different from the last time, this time because of the water below, so let them go down first to make sure that there was no danger below, and the rest of us were down, in other words, if there was any danger below, the people above us could not help them, so they could only let them live or die.
As scouts, they seem to have seen through my meaning at a glance, but this is no surprise to them, with the first scout slowly descending, my heart has already raised my throat, through the cold fireworks just now, it is not difficult to see that this deep pit is twenty or thirty meters, such a deep pit once it encounters danger below, it is simply too late to pull people up as quickly as possible, and the diameter distance around the pit is at best two meters, such a narrow space is not enough for him to use his fists and kicks, So once you encounter danger, you are basically dead!
After a minute or two, the first scout was the first to descend into the water, and as soon as he reached the water, he pulled out a cold firework and looked around carefully, then looked up at it and shouted, "Safety, there's a lot of space down there, and the water seems to be flowing!" ”
After hearing the word safety, the rest of the people on the pit began to climb down the rope one by one, after a few minutes, I also successfully went down to the water, the water is not very deep, waist-high, the water is slightly cold, like underground water, under the illumination of the flashlight, the water is clear and transparent, there is a road about three meters wide and about two meters high on the left and right sides of the deep pit, all of which are built with green tile bricks, which looks very spectacular.
"Chief, now we should go that way!"
Faced with the soldier's question, I pondered for a while, then took out a piece of paper from my bag and put it on the water, watching the confetti slowly flow to the left-hand side, I also turned around and pointed to the left-hand side and said: "Generally, the tomb will be in a low place, as the so-called water flows to a low place, I think the tomb should be in a low place, go and see it first, if not, we can turn around and come back!" ”
The big guy nodded and agreed with me, and walked along the road on the left hand side for more than ten minutes, and the front seemed to be unable to walk at the end, but on the left and right sides of the road, I don't know who carved a mural on it, and under the light of the flashlight, the content of the mural gradually became clear.
The description on the mural is basically the same as the legend of the Hundred Flowers Country before, except that there are a lot of winged birdmen in this mural, they are holding a sharp weapon and are pounced on the entire city, at this moment, the mural at the end of the corridor seems to be like a picture I have seen before, a birdman with a weapon is pounced on a little boy holding a box in both hands.
The image was familiar, and I knew very well that it was something I had seen in other tombs before, and it seemed like it all seemed to be connected.
At this moment, a soldier behind him suddenly shouted loudly: "Chief, there is water behind, run!" ”
Because there were many people in the cave, and my mind was on these murals, I naturally didn't hear clearly, so I asked loudly, "What's the matter?" ”
However, before the words fell, the flashlights in the hands of several soldiers seemed to bring us a not very good news, and we saw that the stagnant water in the corridor behind was suddenly full somehow, and it was like a flood of beasts roaring, with the intention of engulfing us, I was subconsciously stunned and shouted: "Run!" ”
However, how can people say that the speed of the water is faster, before we turn around and run far, suddenly I feel that the back seems to be hit hard by a car, just a light push of our group to fly dozens of meters away, at the bottom of the water I struggled desperately, but the impact of the water is not something that people can resist, no matter how I swim to the surface of the water, but I just can't swim up, the water will wash me away like an ant.
It was only about twenty or thirty seconds, and suddenly, I faintly heard the sound of a very noisy waterfall not far ahead, and when I heard this sound, I immediately felt that something was not right, but what could I do now?
At this moment, I only felt like I was riding a roller coaster and lost my center of gravity, and the whole person instantly began to fall rapidly, and after a few tenths of a second, I heard a loud 'bang' sound, and my whole ear was filled with a very violent and unusually piercing buzzing sound, and my head was a little dizzy.
But I still desperately swam to the surface, the current below is not as fierce as just now, so I swam out of the water very easily, as soon as I came out of the water, I couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, just now I was about to drink full, fortunately my water is not bad, not drowned, this can not swim, will definitely die.
I touched the flashlight on my waist, because the water flow was too fast just now, and I had bruises everywhere in my body, so the flashlight had been completely suffocated, and I couldn't use it at all, I threw the flashlight away, looked around, it was pitch black, I couldn't see my fingers, and I didn't care about the three seven twenty-one mouths and began to shout loudly: "Is there anyone!" There is no one alive! ”
For a long time after the sound fell, there was still no sound of answer around, and at this time I didn't know what the hell I had been washed by the water, only that I couldn't see my fingers around, and I was like a cat with no eyes and no lighting equipment, and I could only touch around.
After a few minutes, the sound of the waterfall that I had heard just now appeared in my ears again, different from the previous one, this one was a little quieter, but whether it was loud or small, I clearly recognized that it was another waterfall, and that this time maybe my luck would not be as good as the previous one, and I might die here!
So I didn't think much of it, and as soon as I gritted my teeth and turned around, I began to swim up desperately, leaning to the side as I went, and in the darkness I could only rely on my luck to hope that I would catch something.
After a minute or two of hard work, my hand suddenly seemed to grab another person's hand, and I subconsciously opened my mouth and asked, "Is it my own person?" ”
But the person who heard this voice did not speak, and did not say a word at all, I suddenly felt that something was not right, and hurriedly touched the rest of his place with my other hand, it didn't matter if I touched it, the cold hair on my back stood up in an instant, and the whole person fell into endless fear at once, only to see that this was a woman, and there was a dagger stuck in her chest, in other words, this was a dead person, but when I grabbed her just now, it was obvious that I felt her strength, Even now when I hold her hand, I can still feel the strength with which she grabbed mine.
