11. Deep well channel

"This stone mill was pulled up from below?" The fat man said, "But I don't think this thing is like a stone mill!" ”

"That's right, the boss pulled this up from the bottom of the well below, at that time we just came here and thought that this well was not a dry well, and wanted to draw water down to draw a little water, but when we kept drilling down, we found that the drill bit encountered this thing."

"What's down there?"

"No, there's just an underground channel, and it should have been washed out by the groundwater flowing through here very early." Silidec thought for a moment and said.

"What's wrong with the fat man?" I stepped forward.

"The Buddha shrine in this stone mill is definitely not a decoration, do you know where such a Buddha shrine will be displayed? One is a tomb and a temple, but I don't think the people in the temple will worship this person named Jangar! The fat man thought for a while, "Let's all go back to sleep!" Xiao Du, you stay. ”

Soon the men all returned to their respective camps, and at this time the fat man spoke, "Right time." ”

"What's wrong?"

"I'll go down, and if I don't go out in 10 minutes, you'll call someone to save me."

"That's." I immediately said, "What's the difference between your thinking and sending you to death?" ”

"There's nothing down there! What to send to death and not to send to death. The fat man smiled.

I shook my head and sighed, "Don't hide it from me, this place is not far from Red Rock Mountain, and you say that this stone mill is something in the tomb, so what else can I think of?" Anyway, no matter what you say, I'm going to go down this trip together, at least you don't want your past tragedy to happen again, right? ”

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I'm going to leave myself a way out." The fat man still said firmly.

"Then I'm going to prove something!" I didn't pay any attention to the fat man, who took out a loop of rope from the trunk of the car, fixed one end to a stake on the outside of the well, and threw the rope in.

"It's really dead as always." Sighing, the fat man took off his coat and threw it at the mouth of the well, "If they can't find us during the day, at least they will know where we are." ”

Then we slowly pulled the rope down and the diameter of the well was not very large. We relied on the only headlamp in the dark, and we still felt that the surrounding environment was a little closed, and this time it was even darker than the previous abyssal descent, which made people feel a sense of urgency at all times. The dry well is made of bluestone piece by piece, and a lot of weeds have grown out of the cracks in the bluestone, but it is much better than the moss of the ordinary well, and we see the ground below when we go down about 10 meters all the way, and the ground is very dry without any water flow or dampness.

"You think this place looks like it's been washed out by water?" I glanced above the well. The starry sky has shrunk into a small area, and we are really frogs.

"I look like someone dug it up?"

"Dig it up?" I crouched down and looked at the place, which was a square mound of dirt, and below it was an empty channel, as they had said, and the river ran from north to south through the underside of the well, forming an underground passage. I looked at the dark passage on both sides, without any air flow, and asked, "Which side are we going to go?" ”

"North." The fat man stroked the ground with his hand and said, "There is a difference in the height of the ground, and most of the soil on the south side has become a high-status soil layer after passing through the bottom of this well, so my guess is that there are some things coming from the north to push the stone mill, and finally I met those who are excavating, and the stone mill was taken away, but those things were not found but continued to the south of the bottom of the well." ”

"But you said before that this trace was dug up?" I said as I pointed my headlamp at the dirt of the north passage.

"It's not as sleek as the river crashes anyway. It seems to have been formed when it was crawled by a large snake. The fat man smiled and said, "You can believe what I joked before, but this place is relatively shady, and it is indeed easy to provoke long snakes to inhabit it, so we should be careful." ”

"Which way shall we go?" I asked, scanning the passage on either side with my lights.

"To the south, we might not be able to catch up with that thing under the dirt, so let's go north, right? Go and see the burial chamber, where the stone mill was pushed out. ”

So we continued to walk north, but unexpectedly this dirt passage was very narrow, and we had to climb through the first part of the road alone, and the fat man handed me a pistol behind me and said, "If there is a situation, shoot, don't save bullets." ”

I crawled to take the gun and continue to crawl forward, it was really getting more and more wrong! The dirt flashed before my eyes in the darkness like a marquee. But that's the problem in my head. Why does something enter the tomb in the first place? Secondly, even if a snake did enter, then why did it squirm against that millstone in this place? Finally, is this really a passage for snakes? It's too big, if that's the case, how big a snake it must be?

"I think we're heading towards Redstone Mountain right now. Hongshi Mountain is said by the locals to be a child mountain that does not grow grass and is lifeless. There are fewer knots, and more dragons pass by. There are many dragons. They think that the place has not been combined with yin and yang, and there are many murderous burials. So basically, no one will be buried in that direction. The fat man said with the compass in the mobile phone software in his hand.

"Do you know where Redstone Mountain is?"

"I asked when I was eating, and it was the northeast side of the camp, and there was an area there that was the Red Rock Mountain, where legend has it that the Black Lama's people were beheaded." The fat man gasped.

"It would be nice if that was the case."

"That's right. At that time, it was said that only more than 100 people died in that place, and maybe even less than 100 of them were boasted about in the newspapers. But there are indeed four or five hundred people of the Black Lama! I wonder if it was the Black Lama's people who came here and built a simple tomb for those who died here, so that the big snakes and the creatures in the ground could take advantage of it. ”

"But I'm really surprised to be able to encounter such an interesting thing here, it seems that there is really some connection between the Black Lama and me, or between Wu Qiguo. Fatty, what do you think? I asked.

"It is said that those who do not enlighten the kingdom will not die, that is, they will live forever. But the Black Lama is dead, and this connection should not be big, but no matter how much we guess now, it is actually a nonsense, but knowing that we have found the deceased who died in Hongshi Mountain, everything is clear. ”

Looking at the time, we have been walking for nearly an hour, this prostrate posture makes me a little sad, and the dirt around is gradually decreasing, the fat man told me that we are about to enter the Black Gobi, and the word Gobi comes from the Mongolian language, which originally means "the land of difficult vegetation". The Gobi is endemic to the arid zone, which is formed on the gravel deposits and bedrock faces of the arid zone, so it is a barren land both above and below, and even the soil is very little.

Fortunately, after a few minutes, the area we crawled on slowly became wider, and I thought it was good news, but the fat man held my leg down! "What's wrong?" I reluctantly turned my head and saw the fat man's face gloomy in the darkness.

He pointed to it, and then I looked up at the rock formation, which was a little higher than before, and suddenly I saw a pile of meat mud sticking to the rocks, and I was startled, and I almost vomited in my stomach, "What the hell is this?" ”

"Man, this is a person." The fat man said. (To be continued......)
