Chapter 65: Departure
After San'er took out the hair seal, the second uncle and the seventh uncle seemed to become very passive, and no one could say anything for a while. It was San'er who took the lead in opening his mouth and asked the Seventh Senior Uncle, "How long will it take for the dust poison passage inside to be restored?"
The seventh uncle didn't answer immediately, he glanced at the second uncle, the second uncle shook his head, I don't know if he wanted to express that he didn't know, or he didn't want to, but the seventh uncle ignored what he meant, and replied to San'er: "We don't know the specific restoration time." ”
"Then don't waste time here. San'er gestured to the little wolf to come over and prepare to go.
The second uncle looked at me and said, "You can decide whether to enter or not, no matter how much we have, we can't withstand your thoughts, and your own destiny is still in your own control." My advice, though, is that you go back the way you came. ”
After finishing with me, the second uncle glanced at the old prostitute again, and before the second uncle could speak, the old prostitute rushed to say: "Don't look at me, I'm employed, I don't count if I can't get in, you better ask him." The old prostitute turned around, glanced at me, and said very firmly: "No matter what you decide now, I will swear to follow you to the death." ”
I understood what the old prostitute meant, ostensibly reassuring me, but in fact he was expressing his own thoughts. He really wanted to go in, but he also knew that if I didn't go in, it would be impossible for the people of the Meng family to let him in, so it was entirely up to me whether he could go in or not.
"I don't see it, your realm is quite high. The second uncle said to the old prostitute.
"You're wrong, I'm not a big man. I'm taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, and since I have collected the money, then I will definitely keep it safe. ”
The second uncle sneered at the old prostitute, didn't answer again, and then looked at me again. I immediately reached to the side and made a gesture of please go first.
I think the second uncle and everyone have understood my choice, although it is just a simple gesture of please go first, but it is enough to understand my decision, my choice is to go in together.
The Seventh Senior Uncle made an arrangement, and the Fifth Senior Brother, Wang Jingang, and a few people from the Meng family stayed behind as a response, and asked them to clean the dust and poison passage with water every two hours here, so that we could safely pass through the dust and poison passage when we returned. Uncle Seventh only took three people to follow up, and these three Meng family members gave me the feeling that they were doing coolies, in addition to the backpacks on their bodies, each of them also carried a large bucket of water in their hands.
I don't know what they're doing with three buckets of water, but I think they should really know about it, otherwise they wouldn't be so prepared.
The little wolf walked past me and the old prostitute without saying a word, just making a brief eye contact with us.
The people of the Meng family gave each of us a very thick mask, this mask looks very special, it doesn't look like it was bought, it looks more like it was made by yourself, and it was very rough, the inside of the mask was wrapped with something very thick, and at first glance there was a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
"No, it's such a big smell, this thing doesn't smoke people to death if it is brought to the mouth. The old prostitute said, "You guys are in such a big battle, you don't even have a gas mask, right?"
"It's not for now, it's for you to live. The Meng family, who issued masks, responded.
"What is it here?" the old prostitute held the mask to her nose and sniffed it, but the Meng family did not answer the old prostitute again.
"Let's go, give it to you, you can take it, don't do so much. "I pushed the old prostitute and asked him not to ink this little thing, after all, the seventh uncle and they have already entered the dust and poison channel.
To tell the truth, when my old prostitute and I entered the dust and poison passage again, there were some shadows in our hearts, after all, we had been tricked before, so we had some concerns. After seeing the person in front of us walk in for more than ten meters, we walked into the passage.
In fact, the current dust poison channel has changed the scene, there is no longer dust poison on the ground, and there is no dust poison floating in the air. The entire passage was wet, with occasional droplets of water falling from the top, like a hole in water that had just receded.
As I walked, I observed the structure of this passage, which on the surface looked the same as the frame of the other passages, but there were two slight differences. At the two bottom corners of the passage, there are two small ditches that are not much recessed, and the small ditches are full of small holes, which look like drainage holes, and if I guess correctly, the original dust poison in the passage should have been washed into these small holes along the water.
But there is one thing I don't understand, that is, San'er asked Uncle Seventh Uncle, he asked Uncle Seventh how long it would take for this dust poison channel to be restored, and it was obvious that this dust poison channel could be restored, but I observed for a while, and I didn't find out where the dust poison came from. Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for the dust poison to appear again, because all the dust poison in the passage has been washed away by water before, but through the dialogue between San'er and the seventh senior uncle, as well as the purpose of the fifth senior brother to bring people to stay, it is enough to prove that there will still be dust poison in this passage.
I pondered for a while, but I didn't understand how this worked, maybe I wasn't smart enough, or maybe the ancient ancestors were so amazing that they always gave us unexpected designs. However, it also shows the importance of this passage, which is so powerful and represents its status as different from other passages, so I conclude that this passage may be the only access to the main burial chamber.
In fact, it didn't take us long to get out of the dust and poison passage, obviously not a long distance, but it made people think that it was very long, maybe its form made people think this way. When I walked out of the dust tunnel, I realized that it was an N-shaped passage. The diameter distance from the end point is not far, but this design often creates the illusion of oppression.
Out of the dust poison passage is a square stone room, this stone room does not put anything in it, bare, at first glance people feel very surprised, such a stone room is not in the room, there is not even a candlestick, this can't help but make people suspicious.
On the other side of the stone chamber, directly across from us, there was still a passage, which looked ordinary, not like it had a mechanism.
The second uncle and the seventh uncle did not stop in the stone room, and went straight to another passage. Sure enough, as I could see, there was no mechanism in this passage, it was a semi-elliptical passage. Walking in this passage makes people feel like they are circling something, and this thing is still very large, and the whole passage seems to have been built to avoid this thing.
In this passage, we people involuntarily divided into three echelons, the first one is the Meng family, then San'er and the little wolf, and the last is me and the old prostitute. The person in front of me didn't say anything all the way, but the old prostitute had a bunch of nothing, but fortunately, I was used to listening to his nagging, and I became immune to his chattering skills.
However, the old prostitute also did something practical, and he dragged the little wolf walking in front a few steps slowly, so that I had time to have a simple communication with the little wolf. But the little wolf's answer was really simple, so simple that it reminded me of the first time I saw him.
I asked him if he knew anything about it, and he shook his head. I asked him again why he was in Chengde with San'er, and he only said, "It's not suitable for these now." Then he walked over to San'er again.
For the little wolf's reticency, I was helpless and helpless. When he wants to talk, he can produce a book in one breath, so that you can't interject at all if you only listen, but when he doesn't want to talk, it's really a thousand words.
It took about 20 minutes before we walked out of the semi-oval passage.
