Chapter 50: Wrong judgment before that
Now, I finally know that the height of the bone pit will be different.
It was a face carved out of a whole boulder, and the hole we saw was actually the mouth of the extremely expanded human face. The face of this stone sculpture is very rough, and many of the edges and corners are not even smoothed. But that's what makes it look so real.
It was as if a desperate man was looking up to the sky and howling before he died. The eyes of the stone carving face were staring at the sky, and the muscles on the face seemed to twitch before our eyes, and the fear, the anger, all of which were deeply imprinted in the hearts of me and the fat man from every detail of its face.
The face tilted slightly towards us, and the big mouth seemed to roar angrily. The fat man and I were like two ants in front of the giant, and we could only stand in fear.
The light of the flare became weaker and weaker, and the face gradually disappeared into the darkness.
When darkness enveloped us again, the voice above us rang out even more harshly.
Suddenly, the fat man looked at the huge mouth in front of him and said, "Let's jump into it." ”
I was so frightened that it took me a few seconds to react.
"I'm afraid it's not safe in there, right?" I said with trepidation.
The fat man sighed and looked overhead with a wry smile.
"Safety? You think you're safe standing here. He looked down at the mouth of the stone carved face again, "We have no way out, and I have something else to tell you." ”
"What?"
The fat man exhaled, "Lao Tzu can't run now, when he slept just now, he may have been affected by the humidity here, and his legs and feet are not very sharp, if he encounters danger." I'm sure I won't be able to run away. It has reached this point, whether it is dead or alive, Lao Tzu is going to jump in. ”
As he spoke, the fat man turned to look at me again. "What about you?"
Looking at his panting, I realized that there was no blood on the fat man's face, and his forehead was full of sweat.
He's right, the thing above his head is probably going to do something to us sooner or later. I could see the surroundings with a flare just now, and it was not impossible to think of the corridor on the upper floor, but it would definitely take a lot of time. And that thing should be waiting there.
Listening to the noise overhead, I knew I probably didn't have time to think about it anymore. So he gritted his teeth and nodded to the fat man.
When the fat man saw my statement, he didn't say anything more, and just grabbed the edge of the corridor. Climbed down. I followed, and the two of them came to the mouth of the stone carved face.
Take a photo with a smokeless stove. I saw that there seemed to be a slope in there. But the slope is steep, at least sixty to seventy degrees.
The fat man still walked ahead. He put the equipment bag on his back, grabbed the stone next to him, and lay on his back.
"I guess we're going to slide all the way, be careful." The fat man greeted me, and then let go of his hand.
The voice was getting closer, and I didn't dare to delay. He also followed his example, lying in the mouth of the stone carved human face, and began to slide down.
In the beginning, the rate of decline was relatively slow. I could barely control myself with my hands and feet. However, because the hole was so big, I had to put my hand on the stone slab under me. I didn't slide a few dozen meters before both of my palms were scratched.
"You're fine." The fat man shouted below, "It's steeper down here, be careful, don't fall down and hit Lao Tzu." ”
"Can you say something conducive to unity, don't worry, if Lao Tzu is going to fall, I will definitely take you with me."
In the process of sliding, the fat man and I can only use this conversation to keep in touch. However, the slope became more and more shaky, and soon we ran out of room to speak, so we all focused and kept our backs as close to the ground as possible.
On such a slope, as long as you roll over, you are guaranteed to break your neck immediately. What's worse is that we don't know what's going on down there, if there's a monster who hasn't eaten for months, then the fat man and I are really going to drill into the tiger's mouth.
I thought I would slide down at such an infinite acceleration, but it didn't take long for the surroundings to calm down again. By the time I saw the fat man's head, I was actually able to stand up.
But I don't know if Lu Dao is too tired or for other reasons, I don't want to get up anymore.
Slowly slipped next to the fat man, and I immediately called out to him.
"Fatty."
He didn't respond, and I nervous for a moment, but just as I was about to shout again, I heard a melodious snoring sound from the fat man's nostrils.
", I'm asleep." I glared at him, but I couldn't stand up myself. There was already a smooth road ahead, and I saw that there was no movement around me, and when I relaxed a little, my eyelids began to fight.
At the end of the day, I don't even remember how I slept through. In my dream, I was sitting in a room watching TV, which was black and white, and the opera was playing all the time. It was a snow-white woman who was singing, and she was singing the Yue Opera that I had heard a few times.
Just as I was about to look at the woman's face, a man walked up to me. I don't know what the road is for, this person is very high in my eyes, his face is very blurred, he bowed his head and said to me, "It's time to go on the road"
At the same time, his hand was on my shoulder. I turned my head to see that he was wearing a very strange black glove on his right hand.
"Hey, get up, hit the road!"
I faintly heard the voice of the fat man. When I opened my eyes, he was grabbing my shoulders and shaking me constantly.
"Damn, why are you more useless than Lao Tzu, a seriously injured person." Look at me and let go of me.
I stood up, only to feel a tingling pain in my bones. Looking again, the fat man was already boiling water in a smokeless oven, and there was jerky in the small pot. I asked him why he was cooking this jerky when it could be eaten directly.
The fat man said that both of us had just recovered, and the most important thing we needed to replenish was some cooked food.
We all sat down in front of the smokeless stove and smelled the smell of the little pot, and I felt like I had wasted a lot of things.
"By the way, have you seen it around?" I asked the fat man.
Suddenly, the fat man's face sank, "Not yet." Let's talk about it when we've eaten. ”
"What do you mean?" I immediately felt something strange, "What the hell did you find?" ”
The fat man sighed as soon as he saw that I was serious. He stood up, took a spare flashlight from his bag, and motioned for me to follow him.
I immediately got up and walked with the fat man into the darkness.
After walking for more than ten meters, I could see a stone monument more than two meters high standing in front of me.
It's full of words, but I know very little.
The fat man shone his flashlight at the stone tablet, "You don't have to look at it. This is a small seal, it doesn't matter if you don't know the other words, as long as you can understand these three. ”
As he spoke, the fat man pointed to the three fonts in the inscription.
I looked at it, but I still don't recognize it. But I'm a little embarrassed to admit it.
The fat man gave me a blank look, "Why are you really a college graduate?" Sue you. These three words are 'Zhuge Ke'. This is followed by his word 'Yuan Xun', followed by his life. ”
After listening to this, I said, "Then this is really Zhuge Ke's mausoleum?" ”
The fat man nodded, then asked me to follow.
As I continued to walk on, I saw two more broken stone lions. Although I have not studied this aspect at all, I still feel that the two stone lions in front of me are not very magnificent.
Moving on, I realized that the place was as dilapidated as the ruins.
We first entered a very narrow cemetery. There are two ear chambers on the left and right, and there are very few burial goods, and there is not a single one that is well preserved.
I suddenly felt a little strange in my heart. Professor Chen didn't say that the specifications of this ancient tomb are very high, why do these things in front of you look so out of place? It's completely different from what we saw when we came in.
After entering another burial chamber. The fat man pointed to the pile of rotten wood in the middle and said, "At the end of the day, this is the main burial chamber." ”
"Huh?" My eyes almost fell to the ground, "Right here?" It's impossible, it's too damn here. ”
"What a cold, inscription, tomb, ear chamber" The fat man kicked the pile of rotten wooden boards, "The coffin, everything is available, this should be the tomb of Zhuge Ke." ”
I can't judge, and I can't accept what the fat man said, "But why did he want to build the outside so well in the first place, but he built the main burial chamber so casually?" ”
"What's on the outside and inside in." The fat man said, "Starting from that stone tablet, here, is Zhuge Ke's mausoleum, the entire mausoleum, do you understand?" ”
"The whole? That's it? So what's out there? "I was completely confused.
The fat man said, "I don't know what to do, but I just found something very interesting." ”
As he spoke, the fat man pointed his flashlight at the corner of the burial chamber. I looked along and saw that there was a hole that was not too big or small, and it looked like it had been chiseled not long ago.
Suddenly, my mind flashed, "Could this be the thief hole that Professor Chen dug them?" ”
"Definitely." The fat man walked over to the pile of broken coffin boards, and when he removed the top plank, I saw a long metal box.
"What's that?" I asked.
"This is what the big families put under the coffin in ancient times, usually bronze or gold and silverware, in order to elevate the status of the owner of the tomb." As he spoke, the fat man put his hand up, and with a great effort, the thing cracked a crack.
I saw that it was an iron box, and the fat man seemed to be a little unmoved, so I stepped forward to help.
As soon as I exerted my strength, I found that this thing was dead, and the fat man bared his teeth there and said, "Damn, Lao Tzu's strength was spent on this just now." Yikes! ”
The fat man and I almost had to suck the lid of the tin box aside. Wiping my sweat, I quickly looked inside.
"Sensei, the contents have already been taken." The fat man said.
Although there was nothing in the box, I still saw a few lines of words on it. "What's on it?" I asked the fat man.
The fat man said: "I'm not an expert in this area, I can know everything anywhere, but I can probably see the meaning of this, this should be written to a captain like Lao Tzu who touches gold, it roughly means that the box is gold, you can take it, but please keep the thing inside." ”
"Golden?" I said in my heart that such heavy gold is still an antique, how much is it worth, but I still care more about that thing, "Is there anything more valuable in there?" ”
The fat man snorted, "Have you forgotten that snow crane feather?" I guess it was the fan that was originally placed here. ”
I was stunned for a moment, "There's a snow crane feather fan in here?" "Suddenly, I felt something unusual.
The thief hole is here, the coffin has been smashed, the body is gone, and the contents of the gold box are gone. If there is really a snow crane feather in it, then the person who took it should be Professor Chen and them.
But that's not right, aren't Professor Chen and Zhuge Xuan coming for Xuehe Yu? If they got it the last time they came, why should they come down?
According to what Wei Lin said, after they got the Snow Crane Feather, they should immediately rush to find the three-day knot.
Although this matter has not yet been confirmed, it is certain that Professor Chen and the others definitely did not return empty-handed when they came last time.
Looking at everything in this burial chamber, I suddenly had the feeling that I was in a position. (To be continued......)
