Child? I turned around in horror to look, but found nothing, and scolded the pit: "Don't talk nonsense, how can there be any children." ”

"Yes, I can still lie to you." The pit argued.

"If you look closely, it's a backpack." I twisted my backpack to show the pit so he could make sure I didn't have any children on my back.

The pit must have been squeezed and confused under the ding just now, so it was wrong. Thinking like this, I glanced at the shadow on the wall, and suddenly found that there was indeed a small child lying on my back, I panicked and threw off my backpack, and when I looked back, there was only one backpack, and nothing else. Lao Zhao saw that I was suspicious and came over to ask me what was going on. I muttered, "Kid." Lao Zhao didn't seem to hear clearly, and leaned his head closer to think more clearly, and I said, "It's nothing." Picking up the backpack and putting it on my shoulder again, it must be that I was too tired, so I read it wrong, our spirits are too nervous, we need to relax, I comfort myself like this, keep up with their footsteps.

The stone stairs swirled and stretched downward, and I didn't know how many times I turned, but I kept going down, as if it was an endless road, and I never tired of having no clear goal. However, according to my estimate, we at least walked down the steps to a depth of twenty or thirty meters, the temperature under this underground has been low to a certain extent, before we came, we did not expect this situation in advance, we are still wearing spring and summer clothes, everyone is frozen lips purple, the sweat left on it when we used to hold the flashlight, actually began to form ice crystals......

"What the is this, I'm freezing to death." The pit said tremblingly.

"Who the knows, talk less and keep your strength." I said to the pit.

Finally the staircase reached the end, and at the end was a cliff, and there was no way out. Song Jin took a flashlight and shone it, it was pitch black under the cliff, and the pit asked, "Little brother, how deep?" Song Jinmeng said: "How do I know." "Didn't you calculate quite accurately? The pit said with a smile. Song Jin was stunned for a moment and said, "Then I have to throw something, if Brother Niu is willing, I can judge from your screams according to the speed of sound." The pit glanced at Song Jin and gave up teasing Song Jin.

I know that the pit is also looking for something to say, or at this temperature, if you don't speak, your lips will freeze together after a while. I came to the edge of the cliff, put my backpack under me, and lay down with a flashlight, barely able to see the bottom, but I couldn't see the situation at all in the distance. I don't know the situation under the cliff, we don't dare to rush down the cliff, who knows what traps will be down here, or what kind of ghost fairy will be. After eating the losses of the water monkey and Da Shiding before, it is completely our luck to survive until now, and we must not act rashly this time.

The strong flashlight could not illuminate the situation below the cliff, and under the cliff, there seemed to be a thick layer of fog covering it, hazy. It would be nice to have a large searchlight, so it could be easily solved, of course, this is a fool's dream, not to mention the searchlight, the flashlight is only left with a battery, if you don't save the use, the next journey, we can only find a way to make some torch lighting. This also blames us for the inadequate preparation of equipment, who would prepare a large searchlight when robbing the tomb. Or there are flares that allow us to see the situation below.

Searchlights are out of the question, but there may still be hope for flares, at least we still have the gunpowder sent by Uncle Oroqen on the pit, maybe it's worth a try. As a last resort, it is either a way or a way. I opened my backpack and began to rummage, and finally let me find a fuse, and an earthen **, according to Song Jin, he bought it on the black market, with the miners in the mine, the miners usually hide some explosives in their shoes, and then take them out and pack them into soil ** after returning home. This kind of home-made ** has almost no power, at most it is stronger than firecrackers of the same size, but if you want to compare firecrackers, it still has the advantages of easy to carry and stable nature, so it is very marketable on the black market.

Pulled a piece of kraft paper for food, I asked for the pit **, poured half of it inside, wrapped it tightly with kraft paper, inserted the soil ** into it, and tightened the kraft paper bag with a string, so a simple homemade flare was made. The firing of flares was also handed over to Song Jin, and I tied homemade flares to his arrows and lit the fuse.

Song Jin pulled up his bow and shot out, only to see the arrow dragging the fire and flying out. A strong flash of light pierced the lonely darkness under the cliff, I looked through the flash, only to see a large stone monument standing under the cliff, and then I wanted to see more, the flash had disappeared, and the cliff returned to darkness. After all, it is a homemade local product, and the effect is too poor. But being able to see part of the situation under the cliff is a result.

"Can't get down?" I asked tentatively. No one answered me, and several people fell into silence, making it difficult to make a decision.

I looked around at a few people and saw that it was impossible to get an answer, so I would have to make a decision. What we saw just now was only a stone monument, and we didn't see anything else anomalous, and we didn't hear any unusual sounds, at least in this area of the stone monument is still safe. I think we can go down to the place of the stele first, and then make further observations, if there is an accident, we can climb up again, anyway, the stele is not too far from the cliff, as long as we run in time to encounter danger, there is no problem. If we encounter danger and we really can't run away, we can also climb the stone monument to avoid the edge temporarily, which is also a good strategy.

Since there is no one to decide, I have to decide on my own. I detailed my opinion to the silent trio, and although it wasn't perfect, I managed to get their consent. In fact, what made me feel strange about going to the tomb this time was that Lao Zhao, such a professional tomb robber, seemed to have no interest in this tomb, and even used words to provoke me before, almost making me give up the idea of moving forward. And before we came, he was not like this at all, if he was really not interested, then it would be good not to use it directly, why bother to look lost after coming. It's like I'm a grave robber, and he's like he's been forced. Is there something strange about this that I don't know? Don't hide anything from me, this old boy, or be afraid that I'm going to divide too much. Hehe, don't think about it so much, being able to get out alive is the most important thing.

We sorted out our gear, took our weapons out of our backpacks, and took them with us. The battery of the flashlight, although it is charged, but in order to reduce the burden, all the batteries that have been used up are thrown away, leaving only the fully charged ones and those used in our hands, the sapper shovel is inserted diagonally into the waist, and it can be removed at will, just in case, and the rest are stuffed into the backpack. We had little food left, and we hadn't eaten since we came down, and now when we saw the food, we suddenly felt hungry, so we divided it up and ate it all, hoping that it would hold on until we escaped from this tomb. After eating the food, we sat quietly on the edge of the cliff, looking at the dark cliff, no one spoke, and we didn't know what to say. And this feeling of satisfaction just after eating has made our brains temporarily stop thinking, leaving only the energy to temporarily feel the beauty of food.

After a short break, I stood up first, and the other three randomly got up together and stood on the edge of the cliff in turn. When I was lying on the edge of the cliff to check the situation at the bottom of the cliff, I had already noticed that there was another soft ladder on the edge of the cliff, which was probably used by the funeral procession or the craftsmen who repaired the tomb. It's just something from a few hundred years ago, and I don't know if it can still be used. I lowered my body and pulled up the soft ladder with my hands, and pulled it hard, it seemed that the quality of the soft ladder was quite good, and there was no trace of breakage.

I looked at the three of them, pulled up the soft ladder and was about to go down. Song Jin came up and grabbed my arm, "Brother Ling, I'll come first." After speaking, I didn't wait for me to react, I stepped directly on the soft ladder and was the first to go down to the bottom of the cliff. Watching Song Jin's figure disappear from view little by little, he knew that he couldn't see anything in the end. Then a flashlight shook at the bottom of the cliff, which was Song Jin using the flashlight to signal us to signal that we were safe to the end, and we were all relieved. Immediately Lao Zhao and the pit went up the soft ladder successively, I was going to take the lead but was left behind, I saw that the two of them stepped on the soft ladder at the same time There is no problem, and suddenly I feel that the things of the ancients are strong and durable, and the shelf life is long. After seeing that Lao Zhao also went down to the end, I also stepped on the soft ladder, so that there were only me and the pit on the ladder, or the weight of two people, so that there would be no accidents.

I had never climbed this kind of soft ladder before, and I felt a little shaky when I came up, but after a while, I gradually got used to it, and slowly climbed down step by step. I had just walked a few steps, but I stepped on the head of the pit, and I turned around and was about to scold, but I saw the pit tilting its head and staring at the cliff.

"Look at Mao, don't hurry up yet." I said to the pit.

"Zero egg, see if this cliff will move." The pit whispered to me. As he spoke, he took out a lighter, and held it close to the cliff, only to see that the cliff where the fire was shining made a noise, and it actually moved, and then it regained its calm. Seeing this scene, I was also shocked, what is the situation of this cliff, how can it still move. Before the flashlight came down, in order not to get in the way, it was inserted diagonally in the backpack at the back, I groped and took out the flashlight, opened it tremblingly, and saw that the cliff was full of black and yellow insects, dense, I can't count how many there are, but just look at the piece in front of me, it is estimated that there are thousands of them.

The insects stimulated by the bright light began to gather immediately after dodging, piling up in front of me, crackling and falling down, as if it were a rain of insects, and I and the pit stared blankly, dumbfounded for a while. Suddenly I felt a pain in my hand, one actually climbed to my hand, I shook my hand, the insect immediately fell into the abyss, and the place where the hand was bitten, immediately red, and then looked back, only to see more and more insects began to climb the soft ladder, and the soft ladder became the world of insects in an instant.

"Let's go." I shouted loudly to the pit, the pit did not dare to slack off, we quickly climbed down the cliff, the soft ladder shook more and more, just when we were about to go down to the end, snapped, the soft ladder finally could not support and broke from the root.

The pit and I were slammed to the ground, and the ladder smashed on top of us. At the same time, hundreds of bugs fell on us on the soft ladder, all of which fell on us. Ignoring the pain of falling to the ground, I pulled up the pit and quickly escaped from the bottom of the cliff.

While running, I turned around and shone back with a flashlight, my God, I couldn't see it on the cliff just now, but I saw that the entire cliff was densely crawled with this kind of black and yellow insects, and a large number of insects were moving towards us quickly.
