Chapter 69: The Drum Wall
These three days were enough for him to go back and forth to the Xuanbing Tomb. At this time, it is possible that he is still in the tomb, of course, it is also possible that Lu Su has already gone out alone.
Although I was surprised by this possibility, I also accepted it calmly, as early as when I came into contact with Lu Su, I was prepared for the possibility of being yin by him, so at this moment, my dumb face was ugly. He kicked the corpse to vent his frustration, and then his gaze shifted to the front of us, which was blocked by unfrozen water.
After all, it was just a speculation, and we couldn't give up because of a speculation, so I said: "What is the truth, we can only find the body of Old Man Zhao first, I have already explored this place, and if we want to think of the other side, we can only wade through the water." ”
Tofu shrunk his neck, looked reluctant, and said: "In my image, it's not good to get out of the water, I always feel that Puzhen old guy must have done something in the water." When I heard this, I couldn't help but be happy, and said: "Okay, you finally know that you have avoided evil, and it seems that the inverted bucket is pouring out of experience." The water is not too deep, and there should be no such thing as a fierce fish. ”
Even tofu can think of this, where would I be careless, long before that, when the dumb man didn't come out, he had already studied it carefully, this non-freezing water is only one meter deep, crystal clear, can't hide things, wading through the water, it shouldn't be a big deal.
After the three bodies were searched by the dumb body, they were useless, so they were left in place, and the three of us took off our shoes and socks, rolled up our trouser legs, and waded into the water. Fortunately, the water is not cold, and it is warmer than standing on the shore after entering the water. I walked in the first place with a searchlight, and in the darkness, every qiē in the ice cave seemed foggy, except for the breathing of the three of us, the sound of footsteps wading through the water.
At the junction of light and darkness ahead, there seemed to be a black fog surging, and we walked into this mass of weapons as if we had been eaten by something, giving people a strange feeling.
The area of this unfrozen water is quite large, and there is no end in sight when we go dozens of meters away, and on the ice wall above our heads, there are countless stalactite-like ice picks hanging. The drop of this ice cave is relatively large, about 20 meters in the middle, so the lights go up, and the ice picks on it reflect a little cold light, which makes me feel like there are countless swords hanging on my head.
After about five minutes of wading through the water, the shoreline appeared at the end of the light, and under the light, a blue line appeared, and it should be an ice surface on the opposite side. As the distance narrowed, the opposite qiē was also exposed in front of our eyes, and the moment I saw the situation clearly, I only felt a tingling on my scalp, and a thought flashed in my heart: what the hell is this?
But at the end of the unfrozen water, there is a platform of ice, and behind the platform is a connected ice wall, it seems that we have reached the end of the entire ice cave, but in fact, it is not, because the last side of the ice wall is not blue ice, but white, a sickly white, like the skin of a dead man, white with cyan.
How could it be such a color?
If you look closely, it turns out that the white of Nasian is a big drum, only the drum surface is exposed, and the rest of the body is all embedded in the ice wall, so at a glance, it is a miserable white, which should be made of sheepskin that has been peeled off not long ago.
I have seen many objects in the bucket, and there are also burial drums, but I have never seen such a large drum wall.
As the old saying goes, the opposite is a demon, just like the seemingly harmless iron chain array before, this drum wall is definitely problematic. That's why I took a look at it, and I thought one head and two big.
The three of them climbed onto the ice, dried their feet and changed into their shoes and socks, and kept an eye on the drums as they watched their surroundings. Tofu said: "Could it be that the owner of this tomb is still a music lover?" ”
I said, "Don't talk nonsense, look for other passages." "The place seemed to have come to an end, with only a wall of ice and a drum on it, and no other passage in sight. I asked the mute if he knew where the drum came from, and he suddenly made a silent gesture and pointed to the very center of the ice wall.
I looked in the direction of his finger, because of the high position and the distance, so I couldn't see it very clearly, but I found that the drum in the center of the ice wall was much larger than the other drums, and there seemed to be some patterns on the surface of the drum.
I looked at it for a while, and I noticed that the rest of the drums were arranged in one order around the same big drum, and other than that, I didn't find anything special. I couldn't help but lower my voice and said, "What, there's something wrong with that drum?" ”
The mute's eyesight seemed to be very good, he squinted, his voice was lowered, and said, "There are people up there." ”
I was shocked when I heard this, and I couldn't help but look at it carefully, but I couldn't even see a single figure.
Tofu also craned his neck to look at it, and wondered: "Where is there anyone, why can't I see it?" Hey...... Is it the pattern on the drum? When you say this, it seems to be a human figure, doing yoga, "Or how to engage in art, the imagination is richer, after his reminder, I immediately found that the pattern does look like a human shape, a bit like a person bending over, forming a C-shape with the mouth facing down, and the details are not clear."
Isn't the dumb person referring to that pattern?
I asked the dumb man with my eyes, but he didn't speak, but pulled out the two black scimitars on his waist and said coldly: "I'll go up and take a look, you wait." Then, without relying on ropes, this kid inserted a scimitar into the slit where the drum was connected to the drum, so that he could climb up, and from time to time his toes would kick the drum surface, and the low and unique sound of the drum would echo in the ice cave, perhaps because of the size of the drum, or perhaps because of the craftsmanship, this dull drum sound was different from the waist drum, drum kit, and modern drum beats I had heard before, revealing a unique sound that was rich and long.
Tofu and I stood below and watched the mute's every move, and he was not always very steady, giving people the feeling that he was not hurrying and that he was in control. He walked resolutely towards the big drum in the center, for the figure on the drum to be exact.
We had a telescope ready, but we had lost everything we could when we were cleaning up our gear, so now we couldn't be sure if the figure was a real person or just a pattern due to our eyesight.
Tofu stared at the dumb man's dexterous skills and commented: "Although your father has a bad temper, this ability is really not blown, when will you be better than him?" ”
I said lightly: "He's not my father, don't talk nonsense." ”
Tofu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's one thing for him to admit it or not, the facts are in front of him, the exact same face, ninety percent of the same personality, as well as the flying knife, and what he said...... It's not your dad, is it still my dad? ”
I stared at the dumb figure hanging on the ice wall without any insurance, and said calmly: "First, he doesn't admit it; Second, it doesn't matter if I have a father or not; My goal is to unravel the curse, and the rest is none of my business. “
Tofu raised his eyebrows and said to himself, "Sometimes, even the tone of speech is exactly the same...... Hey, don't fight, don't fight, I'll shut up, I'll shut up. Seeing that I was going to beat someone, Tofu flashed to the side, and finally stopped talking in amusement, and at this time, the dumb man also climbed on the big drum.
From this vantage point, the dumb man was standing on top of the drum, and then his figure was shortened, and it seemed that he was crouching. From this, it can be seen that the big drum should be protruding, and it should be no problem for a person to stand on it.
Immediately after, I saw the C-shaped start to move, slowly moving upwards. Tofu gasped and said, "It's a real person, the dumb man is pulling him up, but this person is hanging in the air like this, and he doesn't move, and Bacheng is also a dead person, but I don't know who it is?" ”
As soon as these words fell, something seemed to have happened to them, and the dumb figure suddenly flickered, and then fell down violently. This scene came suddenly, unexpectedly, and surprised me and Tofu, I only felt that my heart was skipping a beat, and the whole person rushed forward, subconsciously trying to catch the dumb man. In fact, if you fall from such a high place, let's not say whether you can catch it, even if you do, it is estimated that it will be
Crippled me.
It's a completely thoughtless act, and perhaps subconsciously, I've really equated dumbness with clichés.
This qiē was only a moment's work, and I hadn't rushed far before the dumb figure suddenly stopped in mid-air. And the person he pulled up also hung back in place. The mute seemed to have grasped the man's hand, so he didn't fall off. Because the figure swayed, I could see at this moment that there was a rope attached to the waist of the humanoid all along, and it seemed that he had been hanging in that position by the rope.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and I couldn't help but wonder.
The dumb man is so skilled, how could he suddenly fall? Could it be that it is slipping? The chance of slipping under your feet is similar to that of tofu, and the chance of it happening to a dumb person is too low.
With this doubt, I couldn't help squinting at the place where the dumb man had been standing, but I saw a dark shadow in that place, and I didn't know what it was, and before I could look twice, it disappeared.
At this time, the mute began to crawl along the rope net, and soon stood again on the big drum, and then with a low sound, it suddenly disappeared.
"Huh." Tofu was startled, stretched his neck and said, "What about people? How is this like playing magic, and disappearing in a blink of an eye? "For a while, I was also anxious, and I couldn't help shouting the name of the dumb man, but unfortunately no one responded.
I was shocked and said, "Something has happened to the dumb man, I know that there must be something strange about this drum wall, Xiaodou, you wait below, I'll go up and take a look." ”
