Twenty-three stairs

We racked our brains and thought that in ancient times, when the tombs were built in Xuan Palace, animals were slaughtered and sacrificed to heaven and earth to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil. It must be because we brought spiritual animals like white geese into the palace.

This unique ghost tomb was disturbed by the tomb, so I was ready to kill the two big white geese. Unexpectedly, Big Jinya suddenly stopped me and prevented me from killing the white geese.

When the fat man saw that Big Jinya wouldn't let us kill the goose, he asked: Lao Jin, why have you changed your mind again? Didn't you just agree to it?

Da Jinya asked me to temporarily put down the paratrooper knife in my hand, and said to Fatty and me: Mr. Hu, Mr. Fatty, don't take it off. I suddenly remembered something just now that seemed extremely inappropriate.

I said to Da Jinya: I have this temper. When I think of something and my mind gets hot, I will do it without caring about it. If there is anything I did wrong, just tell me.

Da Jinya said: That's it. I was thinking about what to say. I got a little confused when I was in a hurry. I had to organize my words.

Fatty and I have been trapped in the ancient tomb here for a long time. Although we are not as dizzy and nervous as when we were tossed by the ghost tomb at the beginning, we are gradually becoming restless and want to leave here as soon as possible.

He came up with a solution and was about to take action, but was suddenly blocked by Big Gold Tooth. He was full of evil fire and couldn't do anything, so he had to resign himself and listen to what Big Gold Tooth said.

Da Jinya thought for a while and said: I thought about it briefly, if it is as we expected, the three of us are now trapped by a ghost tomb from the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the reason why this ghost tomb from the Western Zhou Dynasty appeared is

Maybe it’s because we brought a live goose among the three birds. Goose has intelligence and is the most alert, so the ghost grave was disturbed.

The fat man became impatient and said to Da Jinya: Lao Jin, you have been talking so long, what exactly do you want to say?

I asked Fatty not to interrupt Da Jinya anymore and to listen to Da Jinya finish his words first. If he really wanted to escape, he wouldn't waste any time.

Da Jinya then said: If we kill the two geese and there are no livestock in this ancient tomb, maybe this ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty will disappear. But I don’t know if you two have thought about where we are now.

Where is the location? This endless stone staircase is part of the Ghost Tomb, which means that it should not exist here. It is part of the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty that has been destroyed long ago. Before the Ghost Tomb appeared,

This may be earth and rocks in the middle of the mountain, or it may be a cave.

When I heard this, I already understood what Big Gold Tooth meant: Are you saying that if we kill two geese here again, if the ghost tomb disappears immediately, we will fall outside the Tang Dynasty ancient tomb, and will be captured again?

trapped, or even in danger of being buried alive.

Da Jinya nodded and said: That's what it means. Also, have you ever thought about it? It seems that the ghosts in the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty are not all, but only part of them, and they overlap with the ancient tombs of the Tang Dynasty. This stone step is the ghost tomb.

There is no obvious boundary at the edge. Maybe its boundary is still in a chaotic state, but we can't know whether it is expanding or shrinking. If we kill two big white geese, what if?

After Da Jinya’s reminder, I realized how powerful it was, and almost fell into another more terrifying and unpredictable situation. I said to Da Jinya: What Jin Ye said is that we should first find a way to return to the Tang Dynasty Tomb.

In the Underworld Palace, determine a safe location near the entrance of the Underworld Palace or the Robber's Cave, and then kill the two troublesome geese.

But it's easier said than done. This stone step is cycled every twenty-three steps, over and over again, seemingly endlessly. Once you step on this stone step, you can walk up or down.

Not to the end.

I discussed it a few more times with Big Jinya and Fatty, but I couldn't think of any clues. You can't roll down with your eyes closed. In that case, I'm afraid it would be like what Fatty said, and you would roll outside.

The world has achieved the four modernizations, and we may not even be able to get over it.

This seemingly ordinary stone staircase in the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty is actually more difficult to deal with than any black or white evil. If you get the rice dumpling by fighting upside down, you will risk your life to fight it fiercely. You can see the difference between life and death. You can do this

The steps made of large stone strips could not be hit or smashed. Standing still was not an option, and I could not reach the end if I walked down. A feeling of powerlessness filled my whole body. I realized that this was the real horror.

When he was at a loss, Da Jinya thought of a way. Although he didn't know if it was feasible, we went to the doctor indiscriminately when we were sick. Let's give it a try. The three of us first need to confirm whether there is one level every twenty-three levels.

There was a crescent-shaped defect on the edge. We counted five sections as we walked down.

After confirming that it was correct, according to the agreed method, each of the three people held a candle. I first selected a stone step with a crescent-shaped gap to stand, lit the candle, and then Big Gold Tooth and the fat man continued walking down.

As long as the light of the candle where I am standing can still be seen, the second person will stop and light the candle, and then the third person will continue walking down.

The prerequisite for this plan is that the stone steps cannot be too long. If there are only twenty-three steps, and we can maintain the visual distance between each other and can exceed the length of these twenty-three steps, then we will have a chance to walk back.

The Hall of Hades at the bottom of the steps.

However, after the three of us tried it, we found that this plan is not feasible at all. Of course, this is due to the limitations of objective conditions. This ancient tomb stone staircase with no upper and lower ends is not only an infinite loop, but also within the scope of the stone steps, it seems that

It was extremely dark. This kind of darkness was not the ordinary darkness without light, but a thick layer of black mist seemed to cover the head and feet, the front and back of the body.

Even if you light a candle, you can only see it within the range of five or six large stone steps at most. Beyond this distance, the light of the candle is swallowed up by darkness. This darkness reminds me of the ghost caves in Xinjiang. I never imagined that

The nightmare-like darkness was once again encountered in the ancient tomb in Longling. Thinking of this, my body couldn't help but tremble, as if my companions who died in Xinjiang were hiding in the dark corners and watching my every move.

Since the distance to see the light of the candle is only six stone steps, even the wolf-eye flashlight with a lighting distance of 35 meters can only illuminate the distance of the six steps. Once you pass the six steps, it is pitch black.

Not only can't it shine far away, but people in the distance can't see the light of flashlights and candles.

There are only three of us, and the three of us can only explore the distance of twelve steps in this way, and the stone steps of this Western Zhou ancient tomb are at least twenty-three steps in length, so we cannot make any breakthrough by doing this.

The three of us were helpless, so we gathered together again, lit a candle, and turned off all the flashlights. The fat man took out the kettle and drank a few sips, as if he wanted to fill himself up. As a result, the more he drank, the hungrier he became, and he cursed the donkey repeatedly.

Large stone steps in the sun.

I smelled something wrong. There was a smell of alcohol in the fat man's kettle. I asked the fat man: Did you fill the kettle with liquor? You brought water but you brought wine. If you drink too much, we have to carry you out.

The fat man avoided the important thing and said to me: Lao Hu, wouldn't it be courageous to have a drink at this time? How about I do this to you? Let's just do what we did before. You and Lao Jin ordered one without being separated by six stone steps.

The candle is waiting, I risk everything and keep running

I rejected the fat man’s plan: Your bravery is useless. You will die in vain if you do this. We must not lose contact under any circumstances. There is still hope of escape for the three of us together. Once we separate, we will lose each other.

If we rely on each other, the situation they face will be more difficult. The most important point I emphasized in the army and military training at that time was that we should not be dispersed. Dispersion means collapse and disintegration. We are not allowed to choose to disperse and break out unless we have no choice but to break out.

The fat man said to me: Stop it. We are not yet desperate. I think there is no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth. Besides, dispersion does not necessarily mean collapse and disintegration. That is called preserving the fire of revolution.

I said angrily: You keep your firepower in a ghost place like this and scatter when you encounter difficulties. That is a guerrilla style.

Da Jinya was afraid that we two would quarrel, so he quickly tried to persuade us: Sirs, gentlemen, now is not the time to discuss military theory. We really shouldn’t break out separately. Besides, there must be an encirclement to break out if we break out separately. We are here now.

I don't think we can leave alone under any circumstances.

The laws of physics seemed to have lost their effect on the steps of the ancient tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty. I sighed and wanted to sit on the stone steps to rest. As I sat down, I was blocked by something around my waist. I stretched out my hand and touched it.

It turned out to be a long rope around my waist. I was overjoyed and said to Fatty and Big Gold Tooth: Yes, why didn’t I think of the rope? Damn it, they say a dog jumps over the wall in haste, and people become wiser in haste. The more haste we have, the more anxious we are.

The more confused we are, the more we are confused. The ropes we carry are several hundred meters long in total. No matter how long these twenty-three stone steps are, they are enough to measure seven or eight fucking turns.

On the endless stone steps of the ancient tomb, the long rope was like a life-saving straw. Fatty and Big Gold Tooth were overjoyed and quickly started to help. The three of them used the light of the candle to lift the long rope they were carrying.

, connected together with dental plugs.

I looked at the rope shuttles connected together and said to the fat man and Big Gold Tooth: Such a long rope is enough anyway. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's take action immediately.

Now the fat man stood on the spot, lit a candle, and tied the rope firmly around his waist. The fat man stood exactly on the first stone step with a crescent-shaped gap. This stone step with special markings was used as a reference.

, it will be easier to move. I am not sure whether it will work. Anyway, whether it works or not depends on this last move. I was about to leave, but was suddenly pulled by the fat man. Book Alliance
