The Dead Zone: Maya Stela - C57
As the sky gradually brightened, the bone-piercing temperature began to rise bit by bit. In the distance, a few black dots were slowly growing larger. I suddenly stood up. After confirming that it was true, I felt indescribably happy in my heart.
He’s back!
However, this hard-earned joy was immediately dashed by the number of people. “Where’s Song Ping and Elder Song?” Are they inside? ” Zhang Xin Ya’s face was covered in fatigue was replaced with shock: Song Ping is inside?! Who is Old Song?! ”
I waved my hand, confused. She straightforwardly walked away. Although she looked quite hungry, she did not have a single wound on her body. Her clothes were only stained with dust. This wasn’t good news. If the explosion wasn’t caused by them, then …
My heart rose to my throat. I greeted Elder Li and was about to enter to look for someone, but I was stopped. According to Elder Li’s orders, we should first settle these people down before following me in.
Actually, even if they weren’t injured, they wouldn’t have been completely fine. The only problem was that Uncle Zhang’s back was cut open, and the down jacket had a messy cover, just like how I was feeling right now.
After sending everyone’s van up and sending away this group of hungry men with their yellow muscles, Elder Li informed me before the two of them walked towards that entrance.
This time, I took out my cell phone and took three shots of the ceiling pattern. Then I put the entire drawing into it and dusted it off from the floor.
The father and son duo of Old Song and Song Ping went in to save the man, which meant that they should have gone in the same direction as the rest of the army. This is a new road for me and Elder Li, but it’s not hard. After all, his memory was limited, and with a phone record, things were much easier.
My backpack is still next to the hole, but it’s carrying Liu Yang’s piece of equipment.
We had parted from them just before this fork in the road, and there was a gravel path in front of us, and the crunch of our feet on it was unexpected, but when I pushed the stones away a little with my foot, the white skull showed why.
I took a deep breath and helped Elder Li walk forward. The mechanism did not mention the use of these stones, as if the sharp rocks on the ground were just for this guillotine.
Elder Li and I are used to it.” He didn’t slow down as he walked out of the stone road. It was a square passage surrounded by blue bricks. It was a circular area with a length of ten meters and a width of five meters. It was like a semi-circular cover. We noticed the strangest thing at first glance. In the southeast direction of the entire region, there is a black protrusion. I opened the map, but there is no sign of this thing on it. What does this mean?
Elder Li had previously remembered the route, but now he was heading straight for the black line. When he arrived, he immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and said, “That can’t be. Why does this look like a well?”
A well? Appearing here?
Regardless of whether it was a tomb or a palace, something like a well shouldn’t exist. As far as the tomb was concerned, the well connected to the water, and the location of the water source. If there was a well in the tomb, the vengeful spirit would not dissipate. Well word itself is a big taboo to destroy feng shui, the ancients have always had the action of “throwing well to commit suicide”. And the temple was usually owned by worshippers. Could it be that the people who came to pay their respects still lived here? The construction of a well here was too strange.
I walked over and looked down. It was so dark I couldn’t see what was down there. Elder Li was so confident that all I could say was: “This has nothing to do with the road we are going to take, right? We’re here to save them. ” So we’ll study this unreasonable situation later, even though I’m also tempted.
Elder Li said angrily, “Look here!” He pointed with his finger. I took a closer look and saw that there were three scratches on the green stone fence. They were very deep and definitely weren’t accidental. Two of the scratches ran from left to right and the last one from right to left.
Elder Li said, “This is Song Zi’s habit of going down to work. As long as you don’t know much about the situation inside, you will have to make a mark. “One is so that he can go back the way he came, and two is that if we separate to do our homework, I can follow the markings and find him.”
I nodded my head and said that I understood, so I asked Elder Li, “Where should we go next?” There’s a path in front of the straight line we just came in. Elder Li shook his head, pointed at the well and said, “We are going down.”
I heard my own mind wailing, as if my body was already soaked in the bone-chilling cold water. A few of my teeth were already trembling, the pores on my body opened up, and a chilly wind blew on my face.
Elder Li said, “This should be a dry well.” He asked me to pick up a few stones from the gravel road. I waved my hand to say that I didn’t dare to do so, so I casually threw a coin down. I heard a “Ding Ding Dang Dang” sound from below and recalled that the coin had spun a few rounds before falling onto the ground.
I didn’t know how deep it was down there, but it was small enough for me to walk down it with my arms and legs on the wall. I didn’t think it was a well, but more like a straight path up and down.
Naturally, I was the first to go down to check out the situation. After thinking about it for a while, I still used a rope to fix it a few times at the entrance of the well. The rope is standard, there are many things inside that are simply not there to explore the tomb. The rope was nylon, and since I was winding in from the outside, I had to hold it in place. My hands tightened on the rope, and the flashlight hung from my hand. The light drifted down, but the well wasn’t deep. Before we even reached the bottom of the well, there was already a large opening. If we went further down, we would see that it was sealed off. As I climbed up, I scanned the hole with my flashlight.
I climbed up and let Elder Li climb down the rope first. Then I tied the rope and put it back in the bag. I put my hands and feet up against the wall, climbed up to the hole like a frog, and jumped into it.
Elder Li also waited for me for a long time, and then the two of them followed the circular hole and walked inside. Their feet felt extremely uncomfortable, and it was fortunate that they were high enough, or else they would have fallen down.
The trip down the well was not recorded at all on the map. More accurately, this depth. We passed this section of horizontal cylinder, another well, and I climbed up on all fours. When we arrived at the well, I stretched out my hand and looked up. A pair of bright red eyes wrapped in coldness stared straight at me.
After it cooled down, I felt a burning pain on my face, as well as a warm liquid flowing down. This time, it was incredible, I quickly retreated a bit, and that red eyeball of mine was like an inch ahead of me, suddenly jumping down, coincidentally facing me face to face, it was a face full of black hair, under the pair of eyeballs was a monkey nose, but this time, it was a monkey, so it wasn’t easy to do anything about it. This black monkey’s entire body was only half the length of my upper body, but its four long limbs were firmly nailed onto it. My eyes flashed with ill intentions. Just as I was about to climb up, my chest suddenly hurt. I have three thick clothes on me and I can’t even bite off a monkey’s fart. In my heart, I was once again enraged. He kicked the wall and used both his hands to support it. Then, he used one of his legs to kick its stomach!
Suddenly, the monkey’s stomach didn’t kick me, but with a bang, it kicked its head. There was a sharp “Ji — —” I didn’t want to let go of the opportunity, so I immediately stomped on its chest, and the four claws didn’t hit it so tightly, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do it. Taking advantage of the monkey being confused and disoriented, I immediately climbed out of the well. Just as I turned around to stand up, I heard a few “ding ding ding ding” sounds from the bottom of the well. Elder Li was asking me what was going on. I shouted out that I was fine, and that lousy monkey jumped out of the well, his red eyes filled with anger.
I thought to myself, ‘Is your father still afraid of you now that I’m in the Spaces?’ That monkey looked at me for a while and then ran away.
I thought it was going to take revenge, but instead it went straight into a small black hole and disappeared.
I laughed to myself, seeing that it was not coming back. I scanned the area with my flashlight, only to find scattered animal bones and dried black feces on the floor. It seems that I had mistakenly entered her lair. I couldn’t help but say my sin in my heart and sincerely apologize. After tying up the rope and placing it down, Elder Li climbed up the rope and looked around for the marks of the three bars, but there weren’t any marks on the wall. I looked up and saw three thin lines on top of my head.
Elder Li pursed his lips subconsciously, but he was also speechless. He didn’t know how Old Song had gotten up there.
After a while, I pulled out the photo on my phone and used the guide and the information to coordinate with each other. Indeed, there was this room on the symbol. It was a separate area, not connected on all four sides.
The corner of my mouth twitched. Elder Li’s eyes suddenly lit up. He pointed to a wall and said, “Look!”
I looked up and saw that there was nothing there. Elder Li anxiously pulled me to his position, but there was a faint shadow on the wall.
I had a sudden insight and Elder Li said excitedly, “Truly a work of art! “You think so?” I nodded my head. He had already run to the wall. I guess he couldn’t see it and had to go back. He kept mumbling praises. Apparently, he had forgotten about Old Song.
I’ve seen it before, but I’m not surprised now. I concentrate on the marks on it.
It was not a picture, but a word. Outside of the word, there were a few carved peonies. It was also an unexpected feeling of “leisure”.
There were only four words written on it: “Wishing to ascend to the Sky Tower”. I knew that the peony was incomplete when it was only half full. I walked to the side naturally.
I looked up at the top of my head. This height? Hehe. It was difficult to make out the characters on the wall. The handwriting was already light, and now there were only a few murals left. No matter what, they could not string together the words.
I felt a little depressed, and also a little weak from hitting my fist on cotton. Raising his head to look at the Sky Platform, he suddenly had an idea.
In fact, this height wasn’t that high. I could reach it by only seventy centimeters if I extended my hand. If I stepped on the wall of the well, I would probably be able to reach it directly.
I drew something in my mind and thought that I could do it. I simply stood up and tried it out. From this angle, four red eyes stared coldly at me.
Well, they went to get reinforcements. I immediately informed Elder Li. That monkey seemed to have noticed that I had been staring at them the whole time. It squeaked and actually jumped down. With a squeak, the skinny one pounced on me like a hungry tiger. I spun around, but unexpectedly, there was another one that caught me red-handed and was about to scratch my face.
As soon as I started to sweat, I pinched the monkey’s stomach and it fell to the ground with a thud. I didn’t need to be lenient on this kind of thing, I directly stepped on it. Although it wasn’t too fierce, it was still immobilized. The skinny monkey pounced again, and with a ‘pu tong’ sound, it fell onto the ground.
Elder Li stared with his mouth agape. My killing intent was not heavy, thinking that it would be bad if I just put them back, so I had to trouble Elder Li to help me tie up those two feet of mine, then the monkey would be able to bite off their teeth. I only wanted to delay a little, then I jumped onto the well.
