Chapter 51: The Trap

The fat brother slapped his thigh, which scared us collectively.

Jiang Li said to the fat brother: "Brother, can you stabilize the point?" If you have anything to say, you can say it, and it hurts me to see you shoot. ”

The fat guy first smirked, and then said to us, "Think about it, what kind of place are we staying in now?" ”

I expressed my dissatisfaction with the fat brother's sale, and said helplessly: "Didn't I analyze it just now?" In the middle of the two stone walls. Can you not always be back-to-back? ”

The fat brother continued: "This is not just two stone walls, you think, as long as there are murals on the walls, it must be man-made. ”

Fools can see this, there is no need for the fat brother to say, there will be no natural murals, it must be artificial.

This time it was my turn to slap my thigh, and I snapped it on my leg.

Everyone was stunned, thinking that I understood what the fat brother meant.

I said, "I'll do the same with the thighs, can you make it useful?" ”

As a result, everyone rolled their eyes.

The fat brother saw that I was a little anxious, so he sped up his speech and said: "But if it is artificial, then it can't be called a stone wall, it should be a stone wall, what is in the middle of the two stone walls?" Aisles. If we have a crown on our heads, then we are standing in a corridor. ”

Although I heard some words, I didn't understand too much, and said to the fat brother, "You make it clear." ”

The fat brother continued: "We must have built it man-made here, so we don't need to explain it, right? That means we are standing in a corridor, but the proportion of this corridor is relatively large, and the middle of the two stone walls is only its width. Let's not care if the builder has a brain problem or the giants, anyway, this is a large corridor, right? ”

We all nodded vigorously and waited for the fat brother to continue.

The fat brother cleared his throat and said: "Cultivating the road under the ground, it is definitely not for the purpose of living people, if it is not for people, it is either a tomb or a secret room, anyway, it is only to enter and not leave." ”

This point makes sense for the fat brother, as long as it is a dungeon built underground, it must only be able to enter and not exit, and the purpose of entering is to achieve the purpose of building a dungeon, such as burying people, hiding treasures or something. Can't go out is to prevent secret leakage, this is not a supermarket, casually in and out, most of the ancient tombs are hidden entrances, a load of entrance leakage, but also try to make people come and go.

Thinking of this, I set my eyes on the fat brother again, waiting for him to continue to analyze.

Seeing that we were finished, the fat brother continued: "If it is only in and not out, then this mural is for the people who come in, we just need to figure out whether the mural is looking from left to right, or from right to left, then don't we know which side is the entrance?" ”

yes, why didn't I think of that? Indeed, the mural is for the people who come in, and the order of the whole painting should take care of the people who go in, and the people who come in should not be allowed to look at the end first, and then look at the beginning.

Don't look at the fat brother's usual giggling, he does have his little skills in looking at things at this critical moment.

I happily asked, "Then do you see which side is the head and which side is the tail?" ”

The fat brother shook his head and said, "If I can still see the comic book style, I should ask Yanqiu for this kind of architectural drawing." ”

Obviously, Yan Qiu didn't see it either.

The scenery mural is not a story mural, and we really don't understand this viewing order.

We are all too familiar with the content of the painting, when we were on the Gobi, we watched the mirage for dozens of minutes, and it is impossible to forget such a spectacular picture in our minds.

So everyone is revisiting this painting in their minds, thinking that the bottom side is the beginning. Only Surina had not seen it before, and she took a few steps back to watch from a distance.

Mountain walls, temples, pagodas, flying dragons, how do you think that this painting is all seen from the bottom up, and the exit can't always be underground, right?

Suddenly I shuddered, cursed myself for ignoring the most important thing, and immediately said to everyone, "There's something special about this painting." ”

They all looked at me, and Jiang Li asked, "What's so special?" ”

I simply said two words: "Big tree." ”

There is no need to explain more, as soon as these two words came out, everyone except Su Rina understood.

What I'm talking about is that there is a dead ancient tree in front of the temple at the foot of the mountain, and there is a person kneeling under the tree.

If there is a beginning in this painting, it must start from here, first there are people, then there are trees, enter the temple gate, go up to the pagoda, and travel to the double dragon, this is the order.

Without further delay, we immediately relied on our memories to search for the tree and the people under it to confirm our judgment.

Before, the big tree was in the lower left corner, we faced the mural and walked to the left, because the painting was too big, we walked more than 30 meters before we saw the dead tree that had not been seen for a long time.

The tree is also inlaid with blue meteorite, although the branches of the ancient tree are tortuous, but still do not see any traces of artificial carving, as if those meteorites are naturally growing on the stone wall, it is conceivable that the skills of the craftsman have reached the realm of ghostly workmanship.

What is even more surprising is that the person in front of the tree does not appear in the mural, but kneels in the aisle two meters in front of the tree, it is a living person, not the mural.

The man knelt on his right knee, his thin, blackened left hand was flat, and in his right hand was a crutch made of old tree roots, and the strips of cloth on the crutches and the clothes made of Hada on his body were worn out and covered with dust, and the original color was long gone. It feels as if he has been kneeling here for many years.

When we saw that there was a person there, none of us spoke anymore, and stood a few meters away and did not dare to move.

Yan Qiu stabbed me behind and whispered, "Go over and take a look." ”

I was more afraid of this man than I was curious, remembering the image of him rushing at me, and that hungry ghostly face, and I didn't listen to it on my feet. Even if I haven't met him, if I meet a person in such a place, who knows if it's a person or a ghost? No one is afraid.

There was really no way, so we had to step forward collectively and cautiously approach the kneeling man step by step.

The man didn't seem to notice us, still kneeling there motionless, his pigtails covered with dust.

"Isn't it dead?" Jiang Li was the first to speak.

Yan Qiu seemed to be afraid that Jiang Li would offend that person, and whispered: "You be quiet, don't let people hear, how can a dead person maintain this posture?" Probably not. ”

When we were completely close to the man, the bold Su Rina stabbed her with a flashlight twice to confirm that Jiang Li was right, it was a dead man.

I went around to the front again to see his face, and it turned out that it was not the face of a hungry ghost, but the man wearing a mask of a grimace.

I shuddered and took off my mask, and as soon as I took it off, I took it back with me. Because the back of the mask is even more terrifying, the skin has long been shriveled and black-brown wrapped around the skull.

The fat brother pulled me aside, walked over and quickly bowed a few times, and muttered: "The younger generation is disrespectful and disturbs the ancestors, don't blame it." After bowing, the fat brother's attention seemed to be attracted by something, and he still couldn't bend up.

I followed his gaze, and it turned out that the fat brother was staring at the dead man's hand, and I immediately noticed the abnormality.

The man's hand was wrong, and he was supposed to be holding the cane with five fingers, but he was holding the cane with four fingers, and his index finger was stretched out, pointing straight ahead. Could this be a hint?

The fat brother turned around along his fingers, no need to guess, it was the old tree.

"Is there a mechanism? Let me see. As he spoke, the fat brother ran to the wall, and with his face attached to the mural, he began to look for clues on the ancient tree.

We were still waiting for the fat brother to make any new discoveries, but in just a moment, the fat brother seemed to have fallen into the mud and disappeared directly into the mural.

I hurriedly ran over and threw myself on the stone wall embedded in the ancient tree, groping back and forth, but I didn't find any trace of the fat brother, let alone fall into the mural like the fat brother.

It seems that there is a mechanism that we can't understand, which is turned on the moment the fat brother lies on his stomach, and closed again after the fat brother falls in. A big living person disappeared before we had time to reflect.

Under the gaze of the three girls, I touched the whole mural from beginning to end, and as long as I could reach for it, I did not miss a millimeter, and tossed for almost an hour without any results.

I sat on the ground with nothing to do, my mind was full of despair, I didn't expect that we went into the mountain this time, and really faced death, not watching others die, this time it was death that appeared around us again.

I thought it was just a thrill, and the god of luck would be on our side, but I didn't expect to lose the fat brother, it didn't look like a trap, it was more like a trap, I'm afraid that this time the fat brother really has no return.

How do I explain to Sister Hua? How do you explain it to a fat brother's child? Could it be that since he can remember, he told him that your father got away with it and fell into the painting?

If you want to see people alive and die and see corpses, I must find the fat brother, even if the last thing I find is a pile of white bones, as long as it is the fat brother, I will carry him back without falling.

Life is a narrow valley of hardship, and only the brave can pass it. - Michel Pan R1058
