Chapter 72: Topaz Space

Just as I was struggling to support my body sliding down with my feet, the stone walls on both sides suddenly changed, and the surface of the stone walls changed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At first, I mistakenly thought that I had broken the black lacquer applied to the stone wall, but when I looked closely, I immediately realized that it was not black lacquer, but an ancient dry oil.
The dry oil applied to the stone walls has deteriorated, and the surface has been air-dried, making it impossible to tell from the appearance that it is dry oil. Although the dry oil has been air-dried on the outside, there is still a layer of preservation on the inside. As I stomped the stone walls on both sides, the layer of dry oil inside was squeezed out.
When I saw that what was smeared on the stone walls was not black lacquer but dry oil, I realized that this passage was not for people to walk through. I began to understand what the stone chamber above was for, it was just a stone chamber built for easy transportation, not a trap under the flap.
At this moment, I understood the stone chamber above, the flap in the stone cave, and what was in those jars. It was nothing else, just this dry oil on the stone wall.
This is a transportation passage similar to a slide, and the wooden boxes on it are presumably used to carry items and then transport them down through this passage. The dry oil applied to the stone walls is designed to lubricate the wooden boxes and prevent them from getting stuck in the middle of the road until the end of the road.
With the appearance of dry oil on the stone walls on both sides, the stone walls became more and more slippery, and Ma Dahar and I could not maintain the posture of supporting our feet at all, and our feet kept sliding down on the stone walls.
"Uncle Seven, you hold on first, I have to drag you, or I'll slide down. ”
"Don't ...... yet" I wanted to tell Ma Daha not to move first, let me prepare, but before this mobile word was shouted, Ma Daha had already reached out and dragged me.
I couldn't support it myself, and Ma Daha pulled it so much, and directly dragged my supported left leg down, and as soon as my left leg was unbalanced, the whole person began to slide down the slope.
At first, I was able to control the speed with my feet, but then it was miserable, and the soles of my shoes got too much dry oil, and instead of helping to slow down, I started to accelerate.
For a while, Ma Daha and I were like two children playing on a slide, sliding down quickly one after the other.
At this moment, it was a little frightening to the heart, we were very uncomfortable with this way of sliding, especially when Madahar was sliding downward, his mouth kept screaming, which made my heartbeat continue to accelerate, and it felt like my heart was about to jump out.
The rapid swipe lasted at least a few tens of seconds before we reached the end of the passage. This time, I was lucky not to get hurt again. But Ma Daha was a little miserable, because he was in front of me, the first to land, and then I was pressed it, and he was crying and crying for his mother.
I pressed against him for a brief second, then slipped off him and fell to the side.
Neither of us immediately stood up or spoke, just looked at each other, and then we both lay on the ground gasping for breath.
The moment I lay on the ground, I suddenly felt very happy at the moment. Although there is some pain in the body, I am laughing in my heart, laughing that we are still alive. Of course, the smile can't help but be a little afraid, fortunately, this is just a transportation channel, if it is a trap, then Ma Daha and I will definitely return to the west.
I lay on the ground for a few minutes, but those few minutes passed like hours, and I would have liked to lie down here and sleep if I hadn't thought I had business to do.
"How's it going? I asked as I turned to Madahar, who was lying on the side.
Ma Daha didn't answer me immediately, but watched me slowly get up, and he followed suit, and then moved his body and told me, "It's okay, it's just a little painful." ”
I checked it for him and he only had his arm twisted when it hit the ground, and he didn't break it. "Uncle Seven, did we fall into the trap?"
"No, this passage is supposed to be for transporting things, not traps. I explained.
"Why didn't you see the three of them, where did they go?" Ma Daha asked as he looked around with a flashlight.
I looked carefully into the passage where we had fallen, and then replied, "They must have gone to find the way up, and this passage can only go down, not up." ”
After speaking, I looked around, it was less than 30 square meters, in fact, there was nothing to see, the flashlight took care of a circle, it was all traces of artificial excavation, except for some broken wooden planks piled up on the ground on the side, there was nothing else. The only special thing is that there is an arched passage, and the flashlight shines into it very openly, as if the passage is very large.
"What are we going to do, are we going to wait for them here, or are we going to find them?" Madahar asked.
"It's not going to go up here, so they're not going to come back. With that, I walked into the arched passage, followed by Madahar.
The arched passage is not long, only less than five meters, and it enters the space inside.
As soon as I walked into the space, I was a little surprised. This space is several times larger than the stone chamber above, with a width of more than 20 meters and a length of more than 60 meters.
In addition to the magnanimity, there is also a special feature here, that is, it was once on fire. The ground was full of burned ruins, and there was a lot of wood on the ground that had not burned through, and had become charcoal. The stone walls and the roof of the cave were all smoky black, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not the color of the stone itself.
Although this place has been burned by fire, it can still be seen that one side of the stone wall is naturally formed, and the strange shape is very smooth, while the other side is artificially excavated, and the stone wall is full of excavation marks. Presumably, this was a natural stone cave at the beginning, and it was later artificially transformed to become such a large one.
"Uncle Seven, what kind of place is this, why is it still on fire?" Madahar asked.
I shook my head and said I didn't know, and then I looked at the ground with a flashlight, and I really made a discovery. There are a few footprints on the ground, walking towards the artificially excavated stone wall.
You don't have to think about it to know that these footprints were taken by the old prostitute.
Ma Daha and I followed the footprints they had walked on, and when we came to the artificially excavated stone wall, we saw some ancient iron tools scattered on the ground, all of which were tools. I don't know exactly what these tools are called, but it's certain that they're the ones used to dig rock walls.
The footprints have stopped here, and it is very chaotic, as if someone has been spinning around here, and some iron tools have been moved.
The rest of the footprints followed along the stone wall, and Ma Daha and I followed all the way until we entered a short passage and then walked out of the space.
After a short passage, we came to another space, which was about the same size as the place we had just walked through, but it had not been burned by fire, and there were no objects, nothing but stone walls and cave roofs.
The footprints of the old prostitutes gradually became blurred here, and after walking less than 20 meters forward, their footprints disappeared completely. At the same time, I also observed the true color of the stone walls on both sides. The stone here is blue-yellow, somewhat similar to the color of topaz, and when the flashlight shines on it, there will be many reflective points, emitting a glass-like light.
Without the guidance of footprints, Ma Daha and I could only walk forward and look left and right so as not to miss the passages in the stone walls on both sides. Madahar was in charge of the artificially excavated stone wall, while I was in charge of the natural stone wall on the other side.
He kept walking forward like this, and when he was about to reach the entrance of the next space, Ma Daha pointed to the stone wall he was taking care of and exclaimed, "Seventh Uncle, Seventh Uncle, come and see, they are inside the stone." ”
