Twenty-three levels

We racked our brains to realize that when the ancient tomb construction was completed in Xuan Palace, we had to slaughter poultry and livestock, sacrifice to heaven and earth, to exorcise evil spirits, to avoid evil spirits. It must be because we brought a spiritual animal like a white goose into the tomb that alarmed this ghost tomb that there was no one in thousands. So we were about to slaughter two big white gooses at that time. Unexpectedly, the Big Gold Tooth suddenly stopped me and prevented me from slaughtering the white goose.

Seeing that Big Jinya didn't let us slaughter the goose, the fat man asked: Lao Jin, why did you change your mind again? Didn't you all agree?

Big Gold Teeth asked me to temporarily put down the paratrooper sword in my hand and said to me and Fatty: Mr. Hu, Fatty, don’t be surprised. I suddenly remembered that there was something that seemed extremely inappropriate.

I said to Da Jinya: I am the only temper. When I think of it, my mind is hot, I will do it first without hesitation. If there is something wrong, just tell me.

Da Jinya said: That's right, I think about what to say. It's really a bit confused when I'm anxious. I organized my words.

Fatty and I have been sleepy in the ancient tomb for a long time. Although we were not dizzy when we were tossed by the ghost tomb at the beginning, and were very nervous and helpless, we gradually became restless. We wanted to leave here as soon as possible, but we finally came up with a solution. Just when we were about to take action, we were suddenly blocked by Big Gold Teeth. We were full of evil fire and could not do anything, so we had to let go and listen to Big Gold Teeth.

Da Jinya thought for a while and said: I thought about it for a moment. If it was as we expected, the three of us were trapped by a ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The reason why this ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty emerged may be because we brought the living goose among the three animals. The goose is spiritual and the most alert, which alarmed the ghost tomb.

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

I told the fat man not to interrupt Da Jinya again, listen to Da Jinya finish his words first, if he really can escape, he will not fight for the first time.

Big Gold Ya continued: If we slaughter two geese, there will be 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 it. Where are we now? This endless stone steps are part of the ghost tomb, which means that it should not exist here, but belongs to the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty that has long been destroyed. Before the ghost tomb appeared, this might be the earth and stone in the belly of the mountain, or it might be a cave.

When I heard this, I understood what the Big Gold Teeth meant: You mean that if we slaughter two geese here, if the ghost tomb disappears immediately, we will fall outside the ancient tomb of the Tang Dynasty, and will be trapped again, and even be buried alive.

Dajinya nodded and said: That's it. Have you ever thought that the ghost of the Western Zhou Dynasty ancient tomb seems not to be all, it only has a part, and it overlaps with the Tang Dynasty ancient tomb. This stone step is the edge of the ghost tomb, with no obvious boundaries. Perhaps its boundaries may still be in a state of chaos, but we cannot know whether it is expanding or shrinking. If we slaughter two big white geese, if so

After Da Jinya's reminder, we realized that it was powerful and almost fell into another even more terrifying and unpredictable situation. I said to Da Jinya: What Mr. Jin said is that we should first find a way to return to the Tang Tomb's Nether Hall, near the Nether Hall or the entrance of the thief, determine a safe location, and then kill these two big geese that caused trouble.

However, it is easy to say but difficult to do. This stone step is cycled every twenty-third step, and it seems to be endless. Once you walk up this stone step, you will never end whether it is up or down.

I discussed with Da Jinya and Fatty for a few more words, but I couldn't think of anything. I couldn't roll down with my eyes closed. In that case, I'm afraid that the situation would be like the fat man said. The world outside has achieved four modernizations, and we may not be able to get out of here.

This seemingly ordinary stone steps of the Western Zhou Dynasty tombs are really harder to deal with than black and white. If you touch the rice dumplings, you will be able to fight with it with your life and death. If you see the height of life and death, you can't beat the steps of this big stone strip, and you can't beat them, and you can't beat them even if you hit them. Standing still is not a solution. You can't walk down and you can't walk the end. The feeling of powerlessness fills your whole body. I realize that this is the real horror.

At a loss, Dajinya came up with a solution. Although we didn't know if it was feasible, we were sick and went to the doctor. Let's try it out. The three of us first need to confirm whether there is a crescent-shaped defect on the edge of the first-order every twenty-three levels. We counted and walked downwards, counting for a full five sections.

After confirming that, according to the agreed method, the three of them each held a candle. I first chose a stone step with a crescent-shaped gap to stand, lit the candle, and then the Big Gold Tooth continued to walk down with the fat man, and could still see the light of the candle at my standing. The second person stopped to light the candle, and then the third person continued to walk down.

The preface condition of this plan is that the stone steps cannot be too long. If there are only twenty-three steps and we can reach the length of these twenty-three steps while maintaining a distance between each other, we will have the opportunity to walk back to the underworld hall under the steps.

However, after the three of us tried it, this plan was not feasible at all. Of course, this was due to the limitations of objective conditions. This ancient tomb stone step with no upper and lower ends is not only infinitely cycled, but also seems to be particularly pitch black within the range of the stone steps. This black is not ordinary darkness without light, but also a thick layer of black fog seems to be shrouded in the head and feet, in front of the body and behind the body.

Even if I light a candle, I can only see it within the range of five or six large stone steps. After this distance, the light of the candle was swallowed up by the darkness. This darkness reminded me of the ghost cave in Xinjiang. I could not imagine that nightmare-like darkness was encountered again in the ancient tomb of 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.

Because the distance between the candles was only six stone steps, even the Wolf Eye flashlight, which was illuminated by 35 meters, could only illuminate the distance between the six steps. Once you cross the six steps, it was pitch black. Not only could it not shine in the distance, but people in the distance could not see the light of the flashlight and the candle.

We only have three people, and three people can only explore the distance of twelve levels in this way. The stone steps of this ancient tomb in the Western Zhou Dynasty are at least 23rd or above, so we cannot make any breakthroughs in doing so.

The three of us had no choice but to gather together, lit a candle, turned off the flashlight, and took out the kettle and drank a few sips, as if we wanted to fill up the water, but the more we drank, the hunger we became. We cursed the big stone stairs of Donkey Sun.

I smelled something wrong, and there was a smell of alcohol in the fat man's kettle. I asked the fat man: Did you fill the kettle with white wine, you brought water, and if you drink too much, we have to carry you out.

The fat man avoided the heavy lifting and said to me: Lao Hu, isn’t drinking a sip of wine at this time to enhance your courage? Otherwise, what do you think? Let’s do it as before. You and Lao Jin didn’t have six stone steps across the six layers, so they lighted a candle and waited. I went out and ran down.

I denied the fat man's plan: Your bravery is the most useless. If you do this, you will die in vain. No matter what, we cannot lose contact. There is hope for three people to escape together. Once they disperse and lose their mutual support, the situation they face will be more difficult. The most emphasized point in my military training in the army that time was that we cannot disperse. Dispersion means collapse and disintegration. We are desperate and we are not allowed to choose to disperse and break through.

The fat man said to me: Stop you, you are not at your end yet, I think you are simply no way out to heaven and no way to enter the earth. Besides, dispersion may not necessarily mean collapse or disintegration. That is called preservation of the revolutionary spark.

I said angrily: You can save a fire in such a ghost place, and you will scatter birds and beasts when you encounter difficulties. That is guerrilla style.

Da Jinya was afraid that we would argue, so she quickly persuaded: Two masters, two masters, now is not the time to discuss military theory, we should not break through the scattered breakthrough, and there must be a scattered breakthrough. Now we are, I think we cannot leave the order no matter what.

The laws of physics seemed to have lost their function on the steps of the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty. I sighed and wanted to sit on the stone steps to rest. As soon as I sat, I was separated by something from my waist. I reached out and touched it. It turned out to be a long rope that was carried on my waist. I was surprised and said to the fat man and the big gold teeth: Yes, why didn’t I expect the rope? Fuck him, it’s said that dogs jumped over the wall, and people are wise. The more we are anxious, we become more confused, and we are confused. The rope we carry on our bodies is hundreds of meters in total. No matter how long these twenty-three stone steps are, it is enough to measure seven or eight circles.

On this ancient tomb stone steps without heads and tails, the long rope was like a life-saving straw. The fat man and Da Jinya were very happy and quickly helped. The three of them connected the long ropes they carried on their bodies with their teeth bolts in light of the candle.

I looked at the rope shuttle connected together and said to Fatty and Big Gold Teeth: Such a long rope is enough no matter what. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's take action immediately.

At the moment, the fat man stood there, lit a candle, and tied the rope firmly around his waist. The fat man stood at the first step of the stone step with a crescent-shaped gap. Using this specially marked stone step as a reference, it will be more convenient to move. I am not sure whether it will work. Anyway, it depends on this last move. I was about to set off, but I was suddenly pulled by the fat man.
