Chapter 18: Be careful with what's on top of your head

Peanut told me that the tombs of ancient people were separated, the tombs were outside, the tombs were inside, the tombs were on the top, the tombs were below, and even the tombs were in front of you, and it was possible for the tombs to be thousands of miles away. And the style of the mausoleum is very complicated, especially the ancient emperors and dignitaries, are very concerned about the structure and appearance of the mausoleum, because the mausoleum is used to worship the place, the more prominent the family, the more magnificent the construction of the mausoleum.

"We see that this kind of castle tower is a mausoleum, and unlike ordinary castle towers, there are large metal utensils for worship in front of its door. However, the specifications of this mausoleum are too high, and it should not be the treatment that the princes and kings of the Western Han Dynasty can enjoy. Peanut stopped looking, "During the Western Han Dynasty, the relationship between the emperor and the princes and kings was very good, and all the princes and kings were in a suppressed environment. ”

I nodded, and I also remembered the story of the master father Yan that I had learned before, that guy was the one who helped Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty squeeze several vassal kings, and was killed after the most slight. "Then the mausoleum of this specification is not a prince, is it an emperor?"

"This tomb is very strange, what is it, you have to go in to find out."

Thinking about going in, I sighed, "It's all in front of me, but I can't walk over, and I don't know how my father is now." ”

"It's not going to get by." Peanut said with certainty, "Isn't there another group of people coming in?" If we don't see them, it must have passed, so there must be a way. ”

"Hmm." I nodded, and was about to keep looking for it, when I suddenly felt that something was wrong. Turning his head, Lao Tan was gone.

"Old Tan!" I hurriedly shouted, but all I heard in my ears was my own echo. Where did this kid go? Just now he was muttering behind me

I suddenly had an ominous premonition in my heart, and I quickly picked up the flashlight and shone it into the moat. I thought the kid had accidentally fallen in, but when I looked down, the surface of the moat was calm, and it didn't look like something had fallen into it.

"What should I do?" I looked back at Peanut, who squinted his eyes and looked around warily.

At this moment, something suddenly fell on the square, and there was a crisp sound of "pop", followed by a faint light that began to flicker intermittently in the dark square in front of it. I didn't know what to do at first, but I soon realized what that glittering thing was.

When purchasing the flashlight, the German flashlight we specially selected has a very special function, that is, if there is an accident in the field environment, resulting in the dropping or damage of the flashlight, the backup flash system in the flashlight will be activated, and then send out a flash that can last for three or five days, this function can even be used to call for help. The boss gave us a demonstration at the time, so it didn't take long after seeing this flash of light to me.

I ran up to take a look, and sure enough, it was Lao Tan's flashlight. At this moment, the flashlight has been shattered, and only the flash of light on the tail is shaking. It immediately occurred to me that if this kind of military flashlight was to be dropped to such an extent, if it was not deliberately damaged by the user, it must be the result of the flashlight falling from a high altitude.

Involuntarily, I looked at the sky. Peanut also looked silently at the top of the body, and he gently put his right index finger to his mouth, signaling me not to make a sound. Then I saw him start turning the tip of his flashlight. I know that peanuts want to focus the flashlight and narrow the irradiation range, so as to increase the irradiation distance.

The aperture on the ground gradually reached the extreme, and Peanut suddenly raised the spotlight flashlight. In an instant, in the darkness above us, a scene half a meter in diameter was illuminated. In the mid-air about thirty meters above our heads, there were two legs fluttering in the aperture, and I didn't need to recognize them at all, so I could see that it was Lao Tan.

"Old Tan!" I didn't know what was going on, so I reflexively shouted.

It was too late for Peanut to stop me, my voice was still echoing in the square, and Old Tan's body hanging in mid-air moved violently. Peanut immediately chased it with a flashlight, and after a few glances, we realized that something was wrong.

Old Tan's legs were swinging in mid-air, and his position was some distance from the top of the cave. However, he moved slowly in a straight line towards the tower on the other side of the moat, as if something was dragging him.

The surrounding darkness was filled with mist, and the flashlight was almost at its limit, and nothing more could be illuminated.

"Peanut, you hurry up and throw it with a stone, just like before, Lao Tan must have caught something." I shouted in a hurry.

"No, we can't figure out the situation yet, even if I can hit something, he will fall and die." Peanut's tone was very calm, and his two eyes followed Lao Tan's movements.

"What then? We can't just watch him be dragged away. "I was sweating profusely, but I didn't know what to do. What disturbed me the most was that Lao Tan was suspended in the air for more than 30 meters, and he didn't even make a sound. He should have screamed.

Peanut's eyes were getting smaller, and if it weren't for the serious look on his face, I would have almost thought he was going to fall asleep. On the top of my head, the movements of Lao Tan's two legs gradually slowed down, just like the weak struggle of a hanged man before he died, and I suddenly didn't dare to look at it anymore. Lao Tan came with me this time, firstly, because he was curious, and secondly, he really wanted to help me, if it weren't for me, when I saw the mouse suddenly die outside, he would definitely have slipped away. And now, I have brought him to such a desperate situation, and my father's shadow has not yet been seen, so is it necessary to take my brother's life?

Seeing that Lao Tan's two legs no longer moved, I gradually felt hopeless in my heart. At this moment, Peanut suddenly turned his head, looked behind him, and then looked at the city tower opposite. Then, he put down his backpack, grabbed his flashlight, and began to run to the edge of the square.

What does this kid want? Slip away? No, I shook my head, put my backpack down, and quickly followed.

Peanut stopped in front of a giant stone pillar, then looked at the castle tower opposite.

"What are you going to do?" I asked.

"I don't have time to explain to you." As he spoke, Peanut bit the flashlight in his mouth, and suddenly, like a monkey, jumped up the stone pillar, and then climbed up quickly.

The bottom of the stone pillar is a standard cylindrical shape, and I guess it is difficult for even a real monkey to climb up, but the peanut seems to be flying, and with a few clicks, it climbs to the top of the stone pillar. I was dumbfounded, still not understanding what he was trying to do.

Although the place where he stood was as tall as Lao Tan, it was nearly a hundred meters away. With such a distance, no matter how powerful he is, what can he do? Could it be that this kid is going to take off his coat and tell me he's actually Superman?

I saw that Peanut quickly stood on the top of the stone pillar, so high, and so dark around, he actually stood extremely steady. Then Peanut's two hands began to grope back and forth in the darkness in front of him, as if searching for something. Suddenly, his hand stopped in the darkness almost level with the top of the pillar, as if he had really grasped something, and then I heard him say, "That's exactly what it is." ”

"What did you catch?" I shouted.

Peanut ignored me, but his next move scared me half to death.

I saw that his two hands were pressed into the darkness in front of the stone pillar, and his two feet slowly left the range of the stone pillar, and then, his whole person completely left the stone pillar and was suspended in mid-air.

I reached out to pick him up, but the peanuts didn't fall. He hung upside down in mid-air, as if he were clutching a rope, his hands and feet wrapped around it.

Wrong. I knew right away that there really was a rope or something like that, or he would have fallen. Although I didn't understand what was going on, as soon as I looked at the direction in which Peanut was crawling, I knew that he was going to climb to Lao Tan from above.

At first, he was a little cautious, but after a few seconds, his speed picked up suddenly. I looked at the flashlight next to him and moved forward. Sure enough, he went to the location where Lao Tan was.

After chasing for half a minute, I finally saw that Peanut had come to a position less than ten meters away from Lao Tan's side. Lao Tan's situation is no longer optimistic, and I only hope that Peanut can save him as soon as possible.

At this time, Peanut suddenly slowed down, and he raised the flashlight with one hand and shone it at Lao Tan. As soon as the flashlight turned on, I gasped underneath, and I didn't react for a long time, completely unaware of what I was seeing.

The flashlight glowed a pitch-black shadow with a dark gray mass at the bottom of the shadow. I didn't see Lao Tan's head at first, and subconsciously thought that his head was gone, but then I found out that Lao Tan's head was buried in the gray thing. At this moment, he is like a part of the factory assembly line, being lifted by a crane, moving forward lifelessly.

"Peanuts, quick! Save him! I yelled at the top of my voice.

In the blink of an eye, the peanut suddenly pounced on Lao Tan's body, and at the same time, the shadow that controlled Lao Tan trembled. Peanut's flying hand grabbed Tan's thigh, but his flashlight fell from above. Darkness immediately fell overhead, and I hurriedly raised my flashlight, but nothing came out. Only then did I remember that my flashlight was not focused enough, so I quickly started to turn the flashlight again.

Just as my hands were twisting wildly, a woman's cry suddenly rang out overhead. The cry was so sad that it was like a woman who had just passed the door in the middle of the night, lying on her husband's grave and sobbing. I didn't care about the numbness of my scalp, and when I saw that the aperture was almost shrinking to the limit, I jerked it up.

However, when I looked at the place just now, it was pitch black and there was nothing. The crying gradually moved away in the direction of the castle tower, but I panicked and held my flashlight and spun it around.
