Archaeological Notes

Chapter 29

I don't know if it is a hidden map. The so-called hidden map is actually common in ancient China. It can be large or small, and it has been widely used in various fields.For example, when Ximen Qing hooked up with Pan Jinlian, he might have used this trick, embroidering some nasty words on the brocade handkerchief, outsiders would not be able to see through it, but he could understand it at a glance through some agreed methods.When marching and fighting, this method was brought into full play.Either use potions or code words, but the most important thing to achieve is the hidden picture drawn. The writer draws a picture on the paper, and there is no flaw on the surface. Only after unique folding can we see it. Find out the real mystery here.So much so that it is used to paralyze the enemy, prevent secrets from being leaked, or to lure the enemy to go deeper, the hidden map will come in handy at this time.

The picture picked up from the corpse in the waterway, my generation of common people can't understand its good intentions at all. At first glance, this picture seems to be an anatomical picture of this ancient tomb, but it is not.The person who drew this picture used his excellent and transcendent techniques to hide the secret on it.For the time being, I don't know how to see the big back. Maybe he has done some research on it, and that skinny guy can see it, which is a bit abnormal. I'm afraid this kid is the most tolerant one.

When I folded the four corners of the drawing to the back, it immediately gathered into a brand new draft. I stood up and looked at it, and found that the drawing was completely changed. It was a pool with the words "Ten "The glyph-shaped sacrificial altar is quite similar to the one we came down from above.At the intersection of its central points, a mark similar to a skull is drawn. It is not difficult to see that it is a metaphor for something at the bottom of the pool.

The big back glanced at the thin man with a look of approval, maybe he was surprised that such an unremarkable person could be seen through in one fell swoop.Then he pretended to be nonchalant, pointed to the intersection and said: "It's here, I didn't notice it at first, because there was nothing I was looking for in this picture, and then I looked at it in a different way, and I finally found it." I figured it out. But I’m not being sloppy, I didn’t expect things to develop like this at first, I just thought there was a water channel under the gossip-shaped stone slab, which was repaired by craftsmen, and it could directly lead to the main tomb.”

But the one who walked away was that the bottom of the pool was simply empty, and everyone was in trouble.I thought in my heart, it is useless for you to talk at this time. If you didn’t talk about it earlier, you wouldn’t know what to do next, and you pretended to be confident. Now it’s good. It’s easy to get in, but difficult to get out of this place.I turned around the whole stone room, and found that it was almost impossible to get out. The only passage between this place and the outside world was the washbasin-sized hole above the head, through which we slipped in.The stone cave runs vertically, and there are circles of moss inside, so slippery that even a gecko might not be able to climb it, let alone us.

"Brother! What I think is that the key is to figure out how we fell in, so that we can find a way out." Huang Mao said suddenly, looking at the roll of parchment spread out on the ground without saying a word. "Why don't we think in reverse."

I thought about the unbearable experience, and shook my head helplessly, "It's not easy for me to see, this stone room is obviously man-made. There must be a way to open the Eight Diagrams Stone at the bottom of the pool, but it must not be done with a hard one. , Boss Hu was too impatient and exploded directly, possibly connecting with the underground rock crack, and there is a lot of space below, we were sucked in."

"You're wrong." Da Beitou retorted, "I'm a straightforward person, and I admit that I'm a bit reckless, but if you don't act quickly, the water pressure at the bottom of the pool is so strong, and if you delay for a while, you will all become faces No one could have expected what happened after the explosion. In addition, the inch head is not dead, and it will cause trouble for you. You must know how to have a conscience. We only brought it in to save you. Besides, this You also said that the stone chamber was excavated by hand, it cannot be such a coincidence, it may be a well-designed mechanism."

"Trick?" I didn't quite believe it. "I just remember that it was sucked into the water hole. It's hard to say how it appeared here, but the possibility of a trap is not ruled out."

"If it's really an agency, how do you explain it?" Huang Maojia asked.

"For example," I racked my brains to express what I was thinking, and finally had to say, "It's like when we drink water, it doesn't enter the lungs, but the air can come and go freely. This is because There's a piece of epiglottic cartilage at work, and it's possible that the waterway above is modeled after that, but that's just my speculation, though it's far-fetched."

"Do you want to inform Brother Liu Mao on the water pool?" Niu Er's knowledge was shallow, and he couldn't get in his mouth for a long time, so he suddenly said this. "I came in with all kinds of delusions. You are all cultural people and I can't say anything. Instead of finding a way to get out, it's better to call someone to save us, so that we can survive."

This might be a solution, but when we think about it together, we feel that this method won’t work. First, you won’t be able to notify Brother Liu Mao, and second, whether he dares to go into the pool again to rescue us. Let’s not talk about it. It doesn't matter if we can't be found, and it's even more impossible to rescue them, so this method has almost no practical effect.

"Time is running out." After a moment of silence, the thin man looked around with a stern expression, and said surprisingly.Suddenly said: "Do you feel it, the air is getting more and more cloudy, this place is sealed."

We were stunned, took two quick breaths, and found that what he said was true, the air was heavy and turbid, we felt stagnant in our lungs, and our heads were beginning to feel dizzy, which indicated that the oxygen content in our environment had become increasingly not enough.Although the oxygen cylinders rushed down with us, more than half of them were spent dealing with those tentacle ghosts on top, and there was very little left. When food is exhausted.

The big back asked me to put the parchment on the ground close to my body, and the five of them couldn't sit still except for the thin man who remained calm.Walking up to the stone wall and knocking, the sound coming out of it is chilling, full of solid dull sounds, presumably these stone walls are so thick that we can hardly imagine.Dabeitou even used a miner's lamp to illuminate the wall carefully, looking for a place to go out, but found nothing. I asked him if he had any detonators, and he said there were three more, but they might not be powerful enough to blast the entire stone wall Degree.

Niu Er ran around looking for a while, I saw that his face was sweating profusely, he was frightened, in fact, none of us felt well, this stone room is as solid as gold, it is impossible to get out, although they keep coming out Fang Er ran out with ideas, but once it was proposed, it would be rejected immediately.Niu Er was a little frustrated, and when he was tired, he just sat down on the ground, stared at the opposite stone wall in a daze, and suddenly remembered something, and said loudly: "Oh, why do I always feel that this stone room is like a grinding trough!"

"Mochou?" Huang Mao was suddenly confused, "Li Mochou, the Chilian Fairy? Hey! Where the hell is this?"

"No!" Niu Er waved his hands again and again, holding his round face in a naive manner, "It's not the Condor Heroes, it's this tomb. I didn't notice it just now. It always feels like I saw it in the village before, and I just remembered it now." This Gada is really like a mill trough." He was a little impatient and didn't know how to describe it, "It's inside the stone mill, we are like a big stone mill! Look at the lines and grooves on the wall, they are so vivid It looks like a stone mill!"

We couldn't help but turn pale with fright. Looking at the structural framework inside the stone room, just as Niu Er said, it looks like a grinding trough of a stone mill.Niu Er's face turned pale, staring at us to make up our minds, Huangmao and I have nothing to do, only Dabeitou calm down, squatting in the corner to watch.Seeming to have discovered something again, he hurriedly told us to go over, and the five of us gathered together, only to see a palm-width stone crack under the wall at the same level as the ground.

The five of them were all stunned, I felt my throat was a little congested, I wanted to say it but I couldn't, I just felt that this stone room became more and more eerie and frightening, which made my hair stand on end.A few people didn't speak, and the big back still squatted on the spot. Everyone was silent for a while, feeling uncomfortable.But I suddenly heard a "bang", some iron vessel fell from the stone cave on the top of the stone room, I looked back, and it turned out to be an oxygen cylinder.

At the bottom of the pool, there was such chaos that there were only three oxygen tanks that fell into the stone chamber, and Niu Er’s and mine were lost unknowingly.The cave at the top of the stone chamber has been dripping water. It may be that the oxygen bottle blocked the upper "epiglottis", and it was washed by the side water continuously, and finally fell down.

Sure enough, as I guessed, after the oxygen cylinder fell, the water in the hole no longer dripped from above, and we were already in a completely sealed environment.Huang Mao went over to pick it up, we quickly connected the respirator, and took turns breathing for a while, but no matter what, we still couldn't calm down for a long time, and felt that we were jumping faster and faster.

It has not been a minute since the oxygen cylinder fell. When we were still silent, a sudden violent trembling made me stagger, and I almost fell to the ground. The fear is indescribable.Then, the wall began to shake, and there was an ear-piercing crackling sound of stone materials. The five of us formed a circle, and we couldn't even stand firmly, and the ground started to move!Niu Er yelled suddenly: "This...damn it's a ghost!"

"No!" The thin man tried his best to stabilize his figure, and his unruffled demeanor was admirable. "It's not the ground that's moving. Pay attention, it's the wall that's moving."

Will the wall move?I immediately shifted my sight to the stone wall, and then looked down at the cracks in the stone below, and I was dumbfounded immediately, I couldn't be wrong!I can really see that the walls of the whole stone room are indeed moving, we are like in a stone mill, there is no way to go to heaven, and no way to go to earth!I understood all at once, why there are such complicated water channels and huge water system structures in this ancient tomb. It turns out that this is an ancient tomb city full of organs. It's not just a fake.I have to sigh at the uncanny workmanship of the ancient craftsmen, who knew how to drive the organ city with water hundreds of years ago, creating such a huge stone mill.The situation has developed to this stage, and we can't think of a way. In fact, any action we have is futile. This stone room is absolutely invulnerable, and we can't find any loopholes to overcome it.

Niu Er rushed to the wall like a madman, kicked his feet on the ground and supported the stone wall with both arms, trying to save the situation by himself. The few of us looked at each other in silence, regardless of whether it was useful or not. Doing is better than doing nothing. Given the opportunity, they all stepped forward and gritted their teeth desperately to push against the wall.The veins on everyone's foreheads were exposed, and their teeth were gnashing loudly. They tried their best, but still couldn't stop them.As far as the current situation is concerned, we are undoubtedly trying to stop the car with our arms, and the power of the mechanism to brake the boulder makes us daunting and has no effect at all.

The sloping stone wall rubbed against the ground and scraped rumblingly. We retreated and suddenly noticed the inch-length corpse on the ground. We couldn’t decide whether to drag him over. The corpse is also humane.But in a blink of an eye, the stone wall was pressing towards him, leaving no time for us to think. With a click, the stone wall crushed the bones of Cinch Tou's leg. Suddenly, Cinch Tou's body trembled all over. I obviously Seeing his head tilted and turned, his hands moved forward, dragging a long bloodstain on the ground, and he crawled towards us!
"Not good! This boy is not dead yet." The yellow-haired sword eyebrows were fierce, and he probably felt annoyed, "I've died so many times and I still can't live comfortably, Cuntou, your buddies still took care of you when you were alive." , but when you left, you should return to the ashes and return to the ashes, knowing that you will not rest in peace, and you insist on dragging us down, no wonder I don't talk about brotherhood now!"

Cun Tou crawled a step or two on the ground, grunting in his mouth, the sound made the atmosphere present extremely weird!He suddenly raised his head to look at us again, and for a moment I felt my body stiffen.

Just now Cuntou was lying on the ground and didn’t pay attention to it. In fact, we couldn’t bear to look at it subconsciously. Its entire face and chin were gone, leaving only a bloody hole, and a tongue sticking out limply from its mouth. , covered with barbs!The eyeballs almost came out of their sockets, and he was staring at us coldly, with a strangely funny expression.

Huang Mao finally got nauseated enough that he couldn't hold it anymore. He took off his diving suit, ran forward and put it directly on Cun's head. Without saying a word, he raised an oxygen tank high above his head, and said "Brother Sheng, are you sorry?" He stopped, closed his eyes and turned his heart, followed by a muffled sound, and hit Cun's head hard.His movements didn't stop, one after another, until there was no more movement inside the clothes.We looked at it with chills in our hearts, but we didn't step forward to stop it, and Dabeitou didn't take it seriously, saying that once a person dies, he is not a person, but just a body, an object, and everything is taken care of, it's no big deal .

When the yellow hair was finished, he was sweating profusely and looked listless. I'm sure he was definitely in a bad mood.A few days ago, it was considered that the older brother was better than the younger brother, and it was not good, but now he wanted to use this method to send the brother on the road.

The wall was driving us away step by step, the speed was getting faster and faster, the inch-headed corpse was crushed into meatloaf, and a pool of jet-black blood was scattered in all directions. If it wasn't for the yellow-haired clothes, I would Think I must throw up.The smell of human flesh and blood pervaded our throats, and we were unable to get out of trouble for a long time. We, who were on the verge of death, were depressed to the bottom of our emotions.

Suddenly, I felt someone stabbing me in the waist again. It was Niu Er. He pointed to the corner of the side of the dead body, and his voice was a little distorted.I looked along, and a heart that hadn't settled down suddenly hung up again, almost knocking out of my chest.

I saw a strange intestine-like bug crawling out from a pile of rotten meat. It was covered with barbs and was wriggling its fat body. When it saw us, it suddenly stood up in a "Z" shape.
