Even if there is no hope, we still have to keep moving forward. We have gone through eighty difficulties, and we have to go through this last difficulty no matter what.
Everyone was ready to go and climbed up to the unknown hall above the steps. The height of the steps was not friendly to normal people's legs. Each step was almost three steps higher than normal steps, and they had to be lifted every time.
Only tall legs can climb up smoothly.
In addition, the angle of this staircase does not seem to be prepared for people. It is more difficult to walk than a rugged mountain road. I don’t know if it will rain here, or it will be slippery due to excessive humidity. It is somewhat difficult to stand under my feet.
stable.
It was very difficult for me to climb up. Halfway through, I turned around and looked back. The place below seemed to be completely swallowed up by darkness. We were halfway up a cliff. If we were not stable under our feet, we might fall and become minced meat.
Captain Liao’s encouraging voice never stopped. Not only was he climbing up hard, he was also trying to help others around him. I really saw a shining point in this captain that I admired. He is
Such peace and selflessness always remind me of Uncle Wu.
"Be careful where you step, hold on, we'll be there soon, don't look down!"
Just from the sound of breathing, it sounded like everyone was struggling. Professor Chen was quite old and had been engaged in book-related work all year round. His physical strength was the weakest and he obviously could not keep up with the pace of the large army. Surrounded by several classmates,
Already lagging behind.
Lang Hongyi and I, as well as Uncle Yan who was worried, were all leading the way. No one knew what was going on up there, whether those lights were dangerous to people, and whether there were any dangers waiting for us.
If you explore the road in front, it will be the best protection for those behind you.
Miaomiao is also with me. She was successfully possessed by a ghost before. Now in this underground tomb, staying by my side is the best choice. But she obviously can't keep up with us. I want to separate one
Hands pulled her.
"Sanman, if I do this, will it slow down your pace? How about you walk in front first, and I will follow you."
Her face was abnormally pale, and now due to exercise, her face was obviously flushed, her hair was wet with sweat, and she was breathing loudly.
"What are you thinking about? You can only follow me now."
My destiny is now everyone's little sun. Not only Lang Hongyi, but also Miao Miao and other normal people must use this little bit of yang energy in me to keep their aura normal.
This kind of borrowing was a bit overwhelming for me. For the first time in my life, I felt the cold when it was not the twelfth lunar month of winter.
There is a climbing section in the middle of this huge staircase. Every other step on both sides of the staircase, there will be a tall and majestic statue of a general standing on the edge with a weapon in his hand and an angry look.
We were all sensible and didn't get too close to that side. No matter how long the stairs were, there was an end. The bright lights we had seen before appeared in front of our eyes. I climbed up the last step with difficulty, and the people behind me followed one after another.
Needless to say, I was the first to sit on the ground and couldn't stand up.
Lang Hongyi was a little better than me. He dragged Uncle Yan up and sat on the last step. After taking a short rest, Uncle Yan's face became paler. He was a tall and thin person, and now he looked like
A clothes rack with red gloves.
I turned around and looked at the source of the light behind me. It was light coming from the depths of the hall. It reflected the dim hall in the first half, making it even more dim and unclear.
Lang Hongyi also followed my gaze and looked over. When the other people who came up were busy panting, they were also looking at the halos. After all, it is indeed strange for something like a light to appear in such a place.
"What could that light be coming from?"
"There's no electricity here, so don't expect a big 25-watt light bulb. You'll understand what it is when you go in and take a look."
It was rare for me to be in the mood and I was silent for a while. Not to mention that the light was much brighter than a twenty-five-watt light bulb. It was not a dim yellow color, but a kind of crystal white, very white, and had a holy feeling.
I regained some strength, I stood up and gave Lang Hongyi and Miao Miao a hand. Lang Hongyi turned around and pulled Uncle Yan up. Captain Liao and Xiao Zhao helped each other and struggled to stand up. It was obvious that this
After a sudden climb, even though they were well trained, it was a bit overwhelming.
Not to mention the rest of them!
The main hall is filled with densely packed coffins. The coffins are arranged neatly, just like going to court. Before, I was curious about what those standing shadows were. Only when I walked in did I see clearly. The lower ground was as tall as a person. Keep standing.
The coffins in the standing position are made of the same material, the same pattern, and the same arrangement.
Counting it down, there are at least twenty coffins. Just looking at these, I can tell that they are probably buried with some status. The construction specifications here are just like those of a temple. The coffins below are all civil and military officials.
Hundreds of officials, divided into two rows, civil and military, have stood here for thousands of years.
I’m just waiting to return to the human world with the rightful owner inside and share the prosperity.
On the three steps, in front of the huge screen, four more ordinary coffins stood side by side. Uncle Yan carefully passed through the gap in the middle from behind and said softly, "The person on top should be someone close to him, he can be regarded as Lu.
She is the queen’s confidant, otherwise I wouldn’t be qualified to stay here with her.”
"The light is behind the screen. Is Queen Lu there?"
Uncle Yan nodded, "I think we're inseparable. Let's go up and have a look. You guys should be more careful."
Just as I was about to walk up the middle steps, which were covered with blankets, Lang Hongyi grabbed me from behind.
"You can't go here. Only the emperor has always been able to go here. I think there is definitely a mechanism hidden down there to kill anyone who disrespects you."
When I heard that I was leaving, I was very timid and chose the row of stairs at the edge, and walked up to the position that symbolized the supremacy of imperial power and could only be climbed by the Nine-Five-year-old.
Carefully, one step at a time, he headed towards the light behind the screen.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. After I thought that the scenery behind would shock me again and refresh my understanding of poverty, I was somewhat disappointed.
Four large and four small, the eight luminous pearls are indeed precious and rare in the world. They are also surrounded by smooth bronze mirrors on three sides, which refract their own light even more and can no longer attract my attention.
The coffin in the middle, although exquisite in style, is also made of pure gold. The lid has been opened and thrown aside casually. There is a body on the coffin lid that has begun to decay and is decorated with gorgeous clothes.
Judging from the clothes and hair accessories on her head, she should be a woman of high status, and she should have slept in that solid gold coffin.
Lu Pheasant, could this body be that of the famous Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant, who worked so hard to get out those outside and prepared a rebirth for herself and her husband to enjoy the love nest life?
