Chapter Thirty-Sixth Crossroads

Seeing that Qin Feng didn't pay much attention to his reminder, Peanut smiled and didn't say anything more. In fact, I kind of understood what Peanut meant at this time. He just said a lot, and finally brought up "

The statement "Longtan Evil Land" was probably to persuade us not to go any further. Of course, he also knew that it was impossible for our group to stop, so Peanut just mentioned his idea.

Perhaps it is the so-called benevolence and justice.

But there is one thing that I am very confused about. Since Peanut knows the possible dangers in this place and even wants to persuade us to give up, why doesn't he have the idea of ​​retreating? Our motivation for coming here is very simple, that is to save my father.

What is Peanut's motive? I never believe that his relationship with my father is so good that he would risk his life. Although he took great care of me along the way, I can see that this man

He has his own ideas. I feel a little awkward now. On the surface, Peanut is doing the same thing as us, which is to continue to find my father. But because I can't figure out what his purpose is, I feel like following him.

The feeling that he is on the same road but not on the same page.

Moreover, people came with me and have come here. It is too late for me to ask Peanut about his motives. Besides, with the personality of Peanut that I have seen, even if I asked him, he would be just

Hehehe smiled. So, I can only guess from his words and deeds along the way. This kind of guessing is not the kind of guessing based on clues, but closer to feeling. In the final analysis, I feel that the purpose of Peanut may still be to follow me.

It's related to my father, but it's not that my father's life is in danger, but something like that.

While I was thinking about this, I heard two guys laughing nearby. Only after looking at it did I realize that it was them who discovered that two-thirds of Lao Tan's equipment consisted of food and drink.

Because the three of us had already thrown away our equipment bags on the bridge just now, we needed the remaining three people to redistribute the equipment. Now that everyone has entered the tomb passage, what they need most is lighting and food. Luck

The good thing is that most of the fire extinguishers, smokeless stoves and flashlights are in the backpacks of the two guys. Within ten days, lighting will not be a problem. However, Peanut and I have a lot of dry food in our backpacks, and we were just trying to escape.

However, as soon as Lao Tan opened his backpack, this problem was naturally solved. According to Qin Feng's estimation, as long as the food and water are properly distributed, it will be enough for the six of us to last for about seven days.

After the things were redistributed, a few of us continued on the road. As soon as we left, I saw Qin Feng starting to mark the foot of the wall with stones. After that, he would do the same thing every twenty or thirty meters.

Seeing his familiarity with the car made me feel more at ease.

This so-called cave is actually an artificial tomb passage. There are stone slabs under the feet, and the walls on both sides are painted with the kind of murals I have seen before. To be honest, I have never had the experience to enter a certain historical site until now.

The feeling that those things gave me before was so strong that I couldn't believe it was real. But now, the tomb passage is neither wide nor narrow, and murals appear one after another, appearing on the wall every ten meters or so.

The old oil lamp, everything is very consistent with my imagination of the ancient tomb.

Qin Feng and the others cautiously explored the way forward. Peanut remained silent and kept his head lowered, seeming to be thinking about his own problems. But I was very interested in the murals on the wall.

The murals in the tomb passage are different from those I have seen before. They seem to depict the scene of a sacrifice. The murals on the left and right walls are symmetrical and coordinated, as if a painting was split in the middle and pasted on it.

on the walls on both sides. The people in the paintings stood in an orderly manner, holding various tributes in their hands. In front of them were some people wearing strange masks. Looking at the movements of those people, they seemed to be dancing.

The entire scroll may have covered the entire tomb passage, and I couldn't help but begin to imagine the magnificent sacrificial scene at that time. Peanut said that this place is closely related to the ancient country of Yelang. Look at the clothes of the people in the painting. They are indeed very special, like

That kind of waistcoat that costs so little.

After walking inside for a while, Lao Tan suddenly pulled my clothes from the side.

"What's wrong?" I took a look and found that Old Tan was also looking at the mural on the wall attentively.

"Have you found this mural a bit strange?" Lao Tan said and pointed to the mural in front of him with his chin.

The painting in front of him showed a row of maids holding various sacrifices in their hands, and in front of them were people dancing in masks.

"Are you talking about those people wearing masks?" I took a closer look and said, "There's nothing strange about it. In ancient times, people were all into jumping rope."

"It's not those." Lao Tan said, pointing with his hand, "Did you see it?"

Lao Tan was pointing to the sacrifices carried by the maids. In the painting, each maid was carrying a large plate with sacrifices on it. Of course, it might also be food for people to eat. When I saw Lao Tan,

Tan said these were strange and a little unclear.

"No, it's just some fish, shrimp..." As soon as I said this, something suddenly flashed in my mind.

No. When I look back and think about the sacrifices I saw being carried before, they all seem to be fish and shrimps. However, generally speaking, whether they are sacrifices or things for people to eat, they should not all be

These. I remember that ancient Chinese sacrifices were too strict, with three animals and so on. Why can’t you see even one animal in this painting?

"I understand." Old Tan shook his head, "I just looked over and found that the sacrifices in these people's hands were all aquatic products, which are different from the ancient sacrificial habits of us Central Plains people. Look at these human clothes again

Dressed in clothing, I am sure that the people in this painting must be residents living by the seaside."

"Are you sure of this?" I said to myself, I don't know how much history you have in your mind.

Lao Tan smiled at me, suddenly squatted down, and then waved to me. "You'll know just by looking at this."

I followed him and knelt down to take a look. I saw that there were some winding lines at the lower end of the mural, and the paint on them was very light. After looking at it for a long time, I suddenly realized that these rolls were actually

Waves on the water. Looking back and looking around, I suddenly realized that these people were all standing by the water.

But I thought about it carefully and asked Lao Tan: "Then they may be offering sacrifices to the river god, not necessarily right on the beach."

Lao Tan scratched his head and said, "Haha, I'm just guessing."

As I continued walking forward, I felt that the murals on the wall were getting weirder and weirder. But I couldn't tell what the weirdness was. It wasn't until we walked more than a hundred meters that I finally began to understand.

The murals on both sides are so long, and there are at least hundreds or thousands of maids and dancing people wearing masks on the paintings. However, after looking at it, I found that I had no idea what they were doing. In other words, this mural has no

I don’t know what kind of meaning it wants to express. Was there abstraction at that time?

Just as I was thinking about it, a gust of cool wind suddenly blew in front of me.

"No wonder there isn't even an ear room along the way. It turns out that the tomb passage hasn't ended yet. Damn, how big is this place?" A waiter cursed at this time.

Seeing that everyone had stopped, I also walked to the front. Looking at the flashlights of several people, I saw that the tomb passage continued to extend forward. But the road ahead was very strange. Both sides were dark and there were no walls.

, and judging from the flow of the surrounding air, both sides of the tomb passage in front should be empty, and maybe there is another stone bridge hanging in the air. But it is too dark in front, and the flashlight cannot illuminate anything at all.

"Flare bombs." After Qin Feng finished speaking, the guy on the side took out the launching gun from his bag and quickly got ready. Qin Feng looked at the top of his head, then pointed forward, "Shoot directly in front."

When Lao Tan heard this, he wanted to grab the launch gun and said, "It's unscientific for you to fight like this."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man pulled the trigger. In an instant, a fiery snake flew out from the muzzle of the gun. The fireworks flew dozens of meters in the blink of an eye, and then illuminated the front almost to daylight.

Lao Tan and I were both startled. At first we thought the light was too bright and dazzling. After four or five seconds, we lowered our hands that were blocking our eyes. At this sight, all six of us were shocked at the same time.

"No way." Lao Tan shouted, "The people who dug this tomb tunnel are playing tricks on us."

After he finished speaking, no one said a word. I initially thought that there was at most a suspended "single-plank bridge" ahead, but who knew, there were actually more than a dozen roads ahead.

"How should we go here?" A waiter looked at Qin Feng.

A dozen roads made of stone slabs fanned out in front of us and stood suspended in the air. There were iron chains connecting each road. They looked like half a spider. And underneath those roads, there was a drop of at least

On a cliff above 300 meters.
