Because it was not early, we didn't delay any longer, cleaned up a little, and followed the old man Ouyang to the west, the more he walked, the steeper the terrain became, about thirty minutes later, a big canyon appeared in front of him, as the old man Ouyang said, to the side of the Grand Canyon, only a small road on the cliff can lead to guò.

It is said that it is a path, but in fact, it is a row of stones protruding from the cliff wall, one foot wide, and there are no railings or ropes, it is completely natural, and there is an abyss with no bottom under your feet.

To be honest, on such a road, my legs are weak when I look at me, let alone have to go. But where is the cave that the old man was talking about? Why can't you see it?

The old man showed us the path on the cliff, and then left the edge of the canyon and walked a few hundred meters down a hill to a strange mecca.

The passage is so narrow that it can only accommodate one person, and what is even more strange is that it is extremely tortuous, with countless turns, every meter or two, and countless forks in the road - the same as the "labyrinthine" of caves.

I can't imagine that even the mecca will have this kind of "ecstasy array".

We had just walked into the mezzanine for about a minute, and we were already dizzy, unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south, and I even felt a little motion sickness, which was very uncomfortable.

The old man who led the way at the front walked very calmly, although he held the "monkey eagle" in his arms, but he didn't seem to use the "monkey eagle" to lead the way, it seems that he is very familiar with this road.

"If you stand on the slope of the hill above and look down at this sandwich road, you will find that these forks from the crisscross, forming a very strange pattern, I once wondered, the shape of this pattern, will it be some ancient 'ecstasy array' or something, because at first entering this cave, people will not only be completely disoriented, but also have a strong feeling of nausea and vomiting, you must have felt it, but bear with me for the time being, we will be able to pass it soon."

The old man walked forward, and told us these things in a relaxed tone.

Except for Crazy Six and Xiao Lei, each of us felt very uncomfortable, this mezzanine is indeed peculiar enough, it can actually make people feel seasick and motion sickness.

And as soon as you enter this meander, the concept of time and space quickly becomes confusing - you don't know how long you've been walking, and you can't tell the direction at all.

Our consciousness became more and more confused, and we moved mechanically, following the old man in front of us.

Finally, after feeling that it had been a long time, I heard the old man say: "When you arrive, look at the hole in front of you." "Only then did we realize that the road in front of us suddenly became very straight and wide.

A few of us couldn't help but squat on the ground, and after a few minutes, the strong feeling of dizziness and vomiting slowly disappeared.

It seems that this "labyrinthine" of passages is more terrible than that of "labyrinth" caves, and we have never felt so uncomfortable when we walked through such "labyrinthine" caves in the past.

Madman Six was on the side, as if talking to himself, and said, "I think this mezzanine is really a maze array, and it is difficult for ordinary people to come in and find this hole." ”

"That's right, don't look at this mezzanine is not too long, and there are still a lot of people trapped to death, because when I first found this meazzanine, it was under the leadership of the "monkey eagle" that I was not trapped, and I saw a lot of bones in the mezzanine, and then I cleaned them out, and they must have been trapped and died here."

After listening to this, we couldn't help but gasp - it's a little too incredible that so many people can be trapped in just such a small patch of mezzanine!

But think about it, compared to the black cave, people may be less wary of this kind of open-air passage.

Xiao Lei suddenly said next to him: "There is only one kind of person who can escape from the mezzanine." ”

"Well, it should be that kind of person with a strong sense of direction", I couldn't help but add.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lei shook his head and denied my inference: "No, in this kind of 'labyrinthine' sandwich, the stronger the sense of direction, the more difficult it is to come out." "How is this possible? Xiao Lei's point of view is really weird.

Unexpectedly, after listening to Xiao Lei's words, the madman six and the old man both nodded in agreement, and it seems that the two of them also agree with Xiao Lei's point of view.

Madman Six looked at me with a puzzled look and further explained: "This 'Ecstasy Array'-like mecca is to make people hallucinate in their sense of direction, and its structure is specially designed to deceive people's sense of direction, so the stronger a person's sense of direction, the stronger the hallucination he will have in his sense of direction, so it will be as Xiao Lei said, but it will be more difficult to get out." ”

Although I still can't fully understand Mad Six's explanation, I basically understand what he is trying to say.

"Since it's not what Xiao Ming said, that kind of person with a good sense of direction can escape, what kind of person will it be?" Hongmei looked at Xiao Lei with admiration, and asked in an unusually soft tone.

Xiao Lei smiled softly at her: "He is a person with particularly strong climbing ability."

Listening to Xiao Lei say this, our eyes lit up, yes, look at the stone walls on both sides, although they are extremely steep and extremely difficult to climb, but it is still possible for cliff climbers to go up, as long as they can climb up, they will definitely be able to break free from this mezzanine.

Xiao Lei also speculated that this sandwich road could never be formed naturally, but was artificially designed and built, and as for why such a weird sandwich road was built, no one could think of it for a while.

We've had a lot of experience with the incredible mezzanine in the mountains before -- think about it some time ago, we came across a mezzanine that could be opened and closed regularly, and we walked through it, but we were afraid that if we didn't get out of it in time, we might be caught alive.

Before entering the cave, just the mezzanine outside is already so mysterious, which is too unexpected for us.

For some reason, I vaguely feel that if this mecca is really built artificially as Xiao Lei speculated, maybe there will be more amazing secrets in this cave.

After resting at the entrance of the cave, we decided to go in, in fact, whether we go in during the day or at night, it is the same, because the cave is always dark.

We all took out flashlights, and it was still the old man Ouyang holding the "monkey eagle" and walking in the front.

The entrance of this cave is not large, more than one person high, more than half a meter wide, but after entering, the further you go in, the greater the space in the cave.

Similar to the "labyrinthine" cave in that valley, there is a long section of the cave at the entrance that does not branch, and it is no different from a normal cave.

But after walking for one or two hundred meters, the space in the cave suddenly became larger, and countless forks began to occur.

Xiao Lei took out a rope and threaded everyone with this rope, because there were too many forks in the cave, and if someone couldn't keep up with it, they might get lost in this labyrinthine tunnel, which would be fatal.

This can be avoided if they are tied together with ropes. But the unexpected happened.

When they usually act together, Xiao Lei is either at the front to explore the way, or at the back of the rear, in short, they are the most dangerous positions.

This time, because he didn't need to face him at the end, he took the initiative to ask for the last.

Among the few of us, there are only two young men, me and Xiao Lei, and every time the most dangerous and difficult work is done by Xiao Lei, I really don't want to go.

Originally, Xiao Lei was following behind Crazy Man Six, and when I wanted to enter the labyrinth part of the cave, Xiao Lei was about to go to the back of the line, I resolutely refused - I was already at the back, and if I changed to the front, it would be too shameless.

Seeing that my attitude was so resolute, Xiao Lei seemed to vaguely know my thoughts, so he was no longer reluctant, and only told me to pay attention to safety.

And just like that, I was at the back, holding the rope in one hand and a flashlight in the other, and everyone began to walk through the hole.

In the beginning, there weren't as many forks and bends in the cave. But the further you go, the more forks you take, the more bends there are. I could only see the female translator next to me, and the few of them before the female translator were always in another fork and bend for me.

Because this old man of the cave often travels, he is familiar with the road under the leadership of the "monkey eagle", and we follow him closely, and every qiē is very smooth.

After walking for about twenty minutes, the old man shouted easily: "Halfway through, come on, everyone!" ”

But for the sake of safety, everyone was very tacit when they were marching, neither loud noises nor whispered chatter, just concentrating on moving forward.

But after another five or six minutes, the accident happened.

As we walked forward, we suddenly heard a strange humming sound, and the sound grew louder and louder from far to near.

At the same time, there was a pungent smell of burning in the air, could it be that something was on fire?

Just when we were surprised, we heard the six madmen shout: "It's broken, it's a 'scorched smoke bee', old man, can we go faster, if we are nailed by these 'scorched smoke bees', they will be bad, they are highly poisonous."

The old man was also anxious when he heard Madman Six say this, and he hurriedly quickened his pace, but because there were too many forks in the road, and the 'Monkey Eagle' was also needed to distinguish the direction, it was impossible to go too fast.

Although we didn't know what the 'scorched smoke bee' was, seeing that Crazy Six was so flustered and heard him say that it was highly poisonous, we also became nervous all of a sudden, and wanted to run away, but in this environment, we couldn't run if we wanted to.

Soon, we felt a group of black crushing things fly above us.

At this time, the madman six exclaimed: "Everyone be careful, don't be nailed by this kind of thing."

We've never seen him panic like this since we met Crazy Six, maybe too nervous, his voice was sharp and a little broken. Seeing that the madman six is like this, it is self-evident how severe the danger we face is.

Everyone quickly shone the flashlight upwards, and it turned out to be a group of black, pressed peaks, accompanied by a strong, burnt smell.

We can also vaguely see that this 'burnt smoke bee' is larger than ordinary bees - the small ones are like eggs, and the large ones are like adult fists, which looks extremely terrifying. Two or three had already swooped down, as if they wanted to attack us, but before we could react, they had already been knocked away by Xiao Lei with his coat.

Xiao Lei quickly took a bottle of insect repellent spray from his bag and sprayed it violently at the group of "scorched smoke bees". Insect repellent spray is a common item for camping in the wild, but I didn't expect it to come in handy here.
