Hearing Chen Jinting ask herself, Gong Ping remembered the unbelievable thing they heard from the tomb robber Zhang Agou during their trip to Shaanxi.

"You mean the reason why Zhang Agou was trapped in the tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty?"

Gong Ping asked Chen Jinting tentatively.

"That's right, do you remember Zhang Agou telling us how he was trapped in that Western Zhou tomb?"

Chen Jinting squinted his eyes and continued.

"Zhang said he was trapped by a staircase that he could never walk on." Gong Ping replied while recalling the scene when she met Zhang Agou.

"Yes, Zhang Agou was trapped in the tomb of the king of the Western Zhou Dynasty because of a staircase." Chen Jinting nodded and replied in the affirmative.

"The staircase that he said trapped him, and then I also checked the relevant information, and it looks very evil, there is no end, and you will never go to the end, in fact, there is no mystery to put it bluntly."

"That staircase is just an ancient mechanism to prevent tomb robbers, and the principle is very cumbersome to explain, like a person forever going around in a figure eight, similar to the Bulros staircase that the scientific community talks about now. At the time, it was scary to be trapped in it and not be able to get out, but if you zoomed it out and looked at it on a flat surface, it was easy to see through the mechanism. ”

"According to what you say, the anti-theft mechanism of the ancients is really not worth mentioning?"

Listening to what Chen Jinting said lightly, Gong Ping couldn't help but tease.

"Of course not." Hearing the teasing meaning in Gong Ping's words, Chen Jinting also replied a little embarrassed.

"The wisdom of the ancients is not something that ordinary people like you and me can understand and guess. Although we are doing archaeology, in fact, to put it bluntly, we are puzzlers, and our daily work is to solve and guess the puzzles left by the ancients one after another. ”

Hearing what Chen Jinting said, he sighed. Gong Ping couldn't help but ask seriously.

"So according to what you mean, are we trapped by some kind of mechanism now? Similar to that what Bulos staircase? ”

"Even if it's not, it's pretty much the same!" Chen Jinting replied affirmatively.

"The canyon is full of fog, and we have been moving forward against the rock wall on one side, although we don't feel any twists and turns, but in such a dense foggy environment, it is easy to use our own feelings to create illusions. And if there is a deviation little by little, it will soon lead us to a fork in the road. ”

After Chen Jinting finished speaking, Gong Ping also nodded in agreement, but soon she frowned again.

"If this is really the case, and there is really such an ecstasy road set up by anti-theft in this canyon, then can it also be judged that there are really secrets in this canyon? And the dense fog in this canyon was also specially created to match the ecstasy road? ”

Gong Ping's speculations were quite bold, and in fact, he had already confirmed that there were ancient tombs in the canyon.

However, for Gong Ping's inquiry, Chen Jinting did not answer again, whether there is an ancient tomb in the canyon, can only be judged after the fork in the road, the current priority is to quickly get out of this ecstasy and find other people in the team.

And how the two of them want to get out of this ecstasy is actually very simple.

Before, Chen Jinting had been pulling Gong Ping to stick to the rock wall on one side of the canyon.

Subconsciously, the two of them had already used this rock wall as a reference.

The two of them thought that "the straight canyon, walking along the rock wall will definitely be able to get out of the valley", and the Ecstasy Dao took advantage of Chen Jinting's psychology, and with the cover of the dense fog, Chen Jinting gradually built a small deviation on the rock wall they used as a reference, so as to slowly lead the two to a fork in the road.

Fortunately, the two of them found out early and didn't go down the fork in the road, otherwise the ghost would have known that there was something waiting for them at the end of the fork.

The only way to get out of the Ecstasy is to stop making anything and slowly grope your way back through the fog of the canyon, so that you may be able to walk back to where you were separated from the others.

After thinking about this, Chen Jinting pulled Gong Ping to turn around, and slowly groped forward in the dense fog without squinting.

In fact, Chen Jinting didn't know if his idea was correct, and it was very torturous to grope forward without any goal in the dense fog.

Ever since the two of them were almost led into a "maze" by an unknown "enemy", the feeling of uneasiness in Chen Jinting's heart has become more and more intense.

Guiding them to a fork in the road will certainly not be for them to travel to a "paradise", and there is likely to be an unknown danger hidden at the end of the fork.

At this time, the two of them moved forward with Chen Jinting's own guess that they didn't know whether the road was correct or not, who knew if the road would go on another fork in the road, and who knew if the road would rush out of the "fog" in front of them.

Chen Jinting muttered in his uneasy heart, Gong Ping, who was holding his hand on the side, had a calm face, and his expression was completely believing in Chen Jinting.

Seeing that Gong Ping believed in himself so much, Chen Jinting couldn't help but feel ashamed, and at the same time silently prayed in his heart that his judgment would not be wrong, and the two could finally return to their original place safely

However, before Chen Jinting could finish the prayer in his heart, the dense fog in front of him suddenly dispersed.

At this moment, Chen Jinting found that several dark shadows faintly appeared not far in front of him, and at the same time, he also heard a slight strange sound in his ears. It's like the sound of someone covering their mouth.

Chen Jinting listened strangely, and was about to listen to what the sound was, but Gong Ping beside him suddenly shook off the hand he was holding, and ran over to the black shadows in front of him without saying anything.

Seeing Gong Ping running towards the black shadow, Chen Jinting was about to open his mouth to stop her, but Gong Ping opened his mouth first.

"Lao Suo! What are you doing! Let go of Xiaoyao! Gong Ping shouted as she ran forward.

At this time, Gong Ping had already run to a place very close to the black shadows, and after hearing Gong Ping's shout, Chen Jinting immediately reacted.

He and Gong Ping walked out and walked out of the thick fog!

However, at this time, he didn't have time to be happy at all, because Gong Ping's shout just now revealed indescribable anger.

Chen Jinting understood what he heard just now, and Gong Ping shouted.

"Lao Suo! What are you doing! Let go of Xiaoyao! ”

What did Gong Ping see? What did Lao Suo do to Yao Lina to make Gong Ping so angry?

Moreover, in the face of Gong Ping's questioning, why didn't Lao Suo answer?

Thinking in his heart, Chen Jinting pulled his legs and chased after Gong Ping.

The vague black shadows in front of them were Lao Suo and the others, and Gong Ping had already run in front of them.

The distance between Chen Jinting and Lao Suo was not very far, so after a few steps, he also ran in front of Lao Suo.

It was only then that he saw clearly what was happening in front of him
