As soon as Chen Mo said these words, not only Zhou Lan and I, but also the professor was so shocked that he stood there dumbfounded and couldn't recover for a long time.
Why did my father get into the plaster mold where the mummy was stored?
In the end, Zhou Lan was the first to react.
He seemed to be suddenly excited, and then ran away towards the other side of the corridor.
When I saw this, of course I followed him.
The corridor is extremely long, far beyond my expectation.
In addition, there is no light, so it really makes people feel rough.
However, this situation is a bit special now. We were both eager to go to the main hall to see if the plaster sculpture contained our father's body, so we didn't feel too scared when we ran.
After running for about ten minutes, I finally vaguely saw Zhou Lan in front of me and stopped.
Zhou Lan pushed open the door at the other end of the corridor with both hands.
At this time, I had already run to Zhou Lan's side.
The door had just been opened halfway when a chilling air swept through the hall.
I was choked by the cold air and coughed several times.
"Brother," I said, still out of breath, "it's dark inside the main hall, which is different from the side halls, and it's so cold, so it shouldn't be that simple. We have to be careful."
"I know," Zhou Lan turned around, glanced at me, and then stepped into the hall first.
I don't know if it's because of the light problem or something else, but I always feel like the hall is filled with mist, and everything I see is hazy.
The cold wind kept coming from nowhere.
I couldn't help but touch my forearm with my hand.
To be honest, even though I was walking forward with small steps behind Zhou Lan, I was already panicking.
Because in this hall, there is always the sound of musical instruments coming from time to time.
It felt like there was a group performance of ancient musical instruments going on in this hall.
However, under the current situation, I didn't dare to stop and ask Zhou Lan, for fear that those sounds were just my auditory hallucinations.
At this time, Professor Chen Moxiangyu and Gu Yu had also arrived.
However, I could only hear the voices but not see their people.
The white mist that filled the air separated us from them.
"Zhou Lan and Zhou Cang, are you okay?" Xiangyu called in a low voice.
"Xiangyu, we are already close to the gypsum phase." I looked at the long earth-brown strip that was vaguely visible in front of the gypsum phase, shaped like a silkworm chrysalis, and responded in a low voice.
"Then you should be careful, we will walk over slowly."
It was particularly strange, Xiangyu's voice seemed to come from a very far away place.
Finally, the entire chrysalis-like gypsum phase appeared completely in front of us.
At the very top of the plaster statue, there is a transparent window-like opening about thirty centimeters in diameter.
Through that opening, we can see that lying inside the plaster of the "Silkworm Chrysalis" is a middle-aged man who looks exactly like our father.
The Chrysalis Plaster is still three steps up from us, and the hall was always filled with smoke, so we could only get a rough look.
"Xiao Cang, take out the hernia lamp, the light is too dark." Zhou Lan suddenly turned around and said to me.
"Oh, okay." I responded, then put down the backpack behind me and prepared to take out the hernia lamp.
At this moment, the mist surrounding the hall suddenly moved towards us.
"ah…"
At the same time, I heard Zhou Lan yell.
When I looked up, I realized that Zhou Lan had already climbed the steps alone when he asked me to get the lamp.
These three steps are the same as the three steps we saw in front of the Wawushan Ancient Temple. As long as people step on it, the steps will shrink back, and below the steps is a bottomless abyss.
Zhou Lan, fell down.
Together with the white smoke in the entire hall, the abyss under the steps was also absorbed.
"Brother, brother," I shouted loudly while lying on the edge of the abyss, with tears on my face unknowingly.
At this time, Professor Chen Moxiangyu, Gu Yu, and four others also rushed to the abyss.
Seeing the situation in front of them, they should have understood a little bit.
None of them said anything, they just stood at the edge with solemn expressions.
We all know very well that if we fall from here, the best result will be to become a guy like Wang Zhishui who is not like a human being or a ghost like a ghost.
After a while, Xiangyu slowly squatted down, held my arm and said: "Zhou Cang, the matter has come to this, it's useless for you to be sad. We still have to cheer up, and then look for it in the mountains. Maybe there are some."
A glimmer of hope."
I raised my head and looked at Xiangyu, and Guyu who was standing beside me crying fell into my eyes. At this time, I stood up quickly as if I had grasped the last straw.
, then grabbed Gu Yu’s arms and spoke very fast
He said quietly: "Gu Yu, you have grown up in this mountain since you were a child, and you must know many things about this palace hidden in the mountain. Please tell me, is there any way to reach the abyss under the stairs? I want
Go save people, go save people, just say it quickly."
Zhou Lan suddenly fell down, and Gu Yu was already frightened and somewhat sad. Although she looked small, she was still a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
Now that I was shaking her, her face turned pale and she couldn't say a word. Her tears fell one by one like broken pearls.
"Okay," Xiangyu immediately took my hand off Gu Yu's arm: "Now that the matter has come to this, what else can we do, we can only do our best and obey fate. You are yelling at Gu Yu like this."
, she has already been frightened."
"He is my brother. Please tell me how you should obey the fate of heaven. Tell me." I directed all my resentment and sadness towards Xiang Yu.
"Anyway, I can't control you whether you live or die, but you are not allowed to do this to the little girl. It can be seen that Zhou Lan likes Xiao Yu very much. If he is standing next to you now and sees you treating Xiao Yu like this, he will point out
I might slap you twice." Xiangyu said not to be outdone.
"I wish he could come up and slap me now." I shouted almost crazily.
"Okay, I'm still here," the professor suddenly said sharply.
Although I have not been a student for many years, the majesty of a professor is still there.
After he shouted this, Xiangyu and I immediately shut up.
"Brothers and sisters, please stop arguing. Brother Zhou Lan had an accident. We are all very sad. I do know that there is another road in this mountain. When I was very young, my grandfather carried me through it, but I am not sure if it is.
This is where Brother Zhou Lan fell, can we give it a try?" Gu Yu had stopped crying at this time and said calmly.
The little girl's calm temper in the face of battle really impressed me.
"Gu Yu, tell me how to go. Regardless of whether it's true or not, you have to give it a try," Chen Mo, who had been standing by with a straight face, finally spoke.
"Then brothers and sisters, come with me. I can only try to walk, but I may not remember it. Because I was very, very young, and my grandfather and I encountered danger in the main hall. Later, my grandfather carried
I escaped from the mountains through that road. Grandpa walked for a long time, and I was hungry and sleepy on his back. I was in a state of sleepiness and wakefulness the whole time, so I could only walk based on my impressions." Guyu
Said softly.
"Little girl, it's okay. Just lead the way boldly. We have no way to go anyway," the professor said.
"Zhou Cang, what do you mean?" Xiang Yu's tone returned to its usual tone.
"Agree." I said lightly, then bent down and picked up the backpack that was still lying on the ground, and sorted out my emotions along the way.
"It's not too late, let's go quickly." Xiangyu said, turning on the hernia lamp in his hand.
At this time, Guyu suddenly uttered a question, then turned to us and asked: "Brothers and sisters, this door seems to be missing."
As she spoke, she could already hear the tremor in her tone.
Chen Mo and I took a quick step forward, and then scanned the entire hall.
The door really disappeared.
The surrounding walls were covered with densely packed nine-headed Rakshasa masks.
