C3 Dispersion

One type of torment was silence, so quiet that even the sound of needles dropping on the ground could not be heard. There was clearly more than one person here, but no one dared to speak, and only the sound of their shoes scraping against the ground could be heard.

Just as we were about to lose our patience, the ground beneath us suddenly emptied!

To be exact, I was the only one that was left empty. When I freely descended, I could still hear Wei Yuting and what was the purpose of calling out to me.

I wanted to say something, but I was stunned for a few seconds by the speed of the descent. I didn't react until I fell to the ground with a thump.

"It's nothing, it's nothing!" I shouted, "Still alive!" I touched my lower back. My coccyx was hurting from the impact.

I'm not worried. I just need a rope to pull me up." "AHH!" "Ahhh!" "Almost at the same time, two screams came from above.

I suddenly felt bad, "What do you mean! Wei Yuting! "

No one answered me.

I don't know if it was my imagination, but amidst the creepy silence, "Crack crack crack" sounds came from the top of my head, as if some animal was chewing on it.

In my mind, I was almost ready to play the image of him being torn to shreds. My eyes widened as I collapsed to the ground, paralyzed.

After a while, the chilling chewing stopped. Before I could take a breath, a drop of water fell from the top of my head.

Water?

I looked up.

A glowing green eye stared at me.

Another drop of blood fell down. I reached out and touched it.

What kind of water is that …

That was fucking blood!

I immediately understood. The object above suddenly roared and echoed in the air. I couldn't help but tremble a little bit before turning my head to look at the pitch black tunnel. Gritting my teeth, I stood up and ran forward while carrying my bag.

The monster roared again, but didn't jump down as I had expected, instead, it fell silent again.

I ran for nearly ten seconds, about forty meters away. His legs had already turned soft.

I took a deep breath, didn't know why the stuff didn't come down, then cursed myself for having a screw loose.

"This is f * cking crazy fun." I couldn't help but mutter, "F * ck, one or two!" I put my head in my hands. A light suddenly came from the distance, and a voice said in English, "Who's there!"

I panicked a little and didn't dare to think about it.

The voice said again, "Speak, or I'll shoot!"

There was some discussion.

I hastily replied, "It's a human!"

After a few seconds, he changed to Chinese and asked, "Mr. Zuo?"

I was suddenly overjoyed. It was Ike's voice!

The voice spoke again. "Mr. Left, come here. We can't get to you!"

Without thinking, I grabbed my bag and ran.

I ran around a right angle, and then I saw two paths, one straight ahead, the other bent ninety degrees.

"Where are you?"

"Over here!" said Ike. "Don't go straight ahead, come around the corner! There are snakes over there! "

"Good …" "That's not right!"

That's not right!

In an instant, my blood started to flow backwards, and the pores all over my body opened up. How the fuck could you possibly see what's going on my side! "

Cold sweat immediately drenched my entire body.

I didn't say anything else. With full vigilance, I took out a military knife from the side of the bag and carried the bag on my back.

After a moment of silence, he heard footsteps around the corner, mixed with the sound of a snake rubbing against the ground. I was stunned. That thing had already appeared in front of my eyes.

The moment it appeared, the hand that was holding onto the hilt of my knife started to shake.

Was this a f * * king snake or not!

I froze for a second, my mind filled with two words: "Escape!"

There are two paths. Luckily, I am standing at the intersection, so I immediately ran in that direction.

There were no other snakes in front of the snake. This gave me quite a bit of time.

The giant serpent moved very slowly. No matter how fast the little snake behind him was, it was useless. While I was thinking about how I heard the 'footsteps' in my head, I was also running like a scammer!

The snake moved very slowly, but I didn't dare to relax until I heard a faint clacking sound. The gears twisted and turned. A loud bang came from behind. I looked back reflexively and saw an iron fence between me and the serpent.

I didn't dare to vent my anger, but I didn't want to blindly run forward either. He had originally planned to continue when the snake hit him. However, the snake raised its head and spit out a huge bright red core. It twisted its body like a bucket and stopped moving.

Gradually, the small snake behind it swam to its two sides, and then orderly positioned behind it, the giant snake twisted its body and left.

After the flood of snakes had receded, I slowly supported myself by holding on to the railing and leaning against a nearby earthen wall.

I felt my limbs go limp, and even lifting my hands was an effort, as I came out of the euphoria of barely escaping death. It was wrapped behind me and there was a pain in my diaphragm and I didn't have the strength to take it off.

My body told me that I was physically and mentally exhausted, but my brain was desperately trying to stop me from sleeping. The reason was that I didn't know if I would be able to wake up from this sleep.

I took a moment to calm my nerves. He looked down at his watch. It was three in the morning in Egypt.

Holy shit, it's only been seven hours.

My mood was so complicated that the needle moved soundlessly on the dial.

My mind was in a mess. When I regained my train of thought, I immediately remembered the incident with Wei Yuting. I sighed in my heart.

Previously, he thought that it was a misfortune for me to fall down, but now, he wasn't sure which one would be the more unfortunate.

I carefully combed through all the impressions in my head.

A green eye, a huge snake that defies the laws of nature?

There was a saying, "When occupying a mountain, you must become its king." Or it could be said that a mountain did not allow for two tigers. Could it be that the snake and that thing were one male and one female? Hybridization?

I smiled in my heart, but I really couldn't smile anymore.

He rested for a while, then opened the bottle and drank some water. Taking advantage of my safety, I checked the items in my bag. They were mainly food: three bottles of water, two bags of compressed biscuits, and two cans of food that Wei Yuting was carrying on her back.

How long could he last like this? I put the water back.

The rear road had been completely cut off by this iron fence. Plus, even if I could go back, I wouldn't dare to leave, not to mention there's still a gap and that "one-eyed".

I looked ahead — there was only one way.

Struggling to my feet, I carried my bag on my back and dragged myself forward.

Physical exhaustion was secondary. My mind was full of screams, one-eyed and huge snakes, and a fucking replay.

A few more steps and I would no longer be a wall of sand. It was a condensed rock with a pattern on it.

When the first wall came into view, my first reaction was to dream, but as I looked at the familiar brush strokes, I suddenly felt a little more real.

This familiarity isn't about familiarity or style, but the things carved on it. It can be said that I often come into contact with them. China is called the tomb mural. If you put it in Egypt, you wouldn't know what it would be called.

There was only one column, on my left hand, and my right hand was uncharted.

The first one was about the divine bestowment of authority, and the appearance of the Pharaoh. The second side was a picture of the Pharaoh accepting kowtowing. The third side was the same. The fourth side. The fifth side …

I didn't understand it until the last mural.

On the last page, the face of the Old Law, who was originally sitting on the throne, changed.

It was the sun god, Ra.

"Poisonous, definitely poisonous." I murmured, "Which Pharaoh is this? Are you crazy because you want to become a god? "

The Egyptian sun god was the "God" of Pharaoh's "Power Gives Heaven," and this Pharaoh was a little crazy.

But wasn't this the Mayan territory? Why are there Egyptian frescoes of the pharaohs?

I was a little confused, and a thought flashed through my mind.

I walked on, feeling a bit like the main character of the game, walking straight ahead, never looking back.

I replayed the pictures in my head. Except for the Egyptian pharaoh's face and hair (the headdress of Ra), there was no difference at all.

"If so? Why draw so many? And why was it painted here? Who is this Pharaoh? Is this painting just arrogant or is there another reason? " These questions loomed in my mind and lingered.

Further on, the massive stone walls were now completely different from before. The murals had only five monumental themes, and the rest were very similar to the pyramids.

The Egyptian pyramids have a great time span, both the architectural style and the architectural style, and the time span has brought about great changes. In general, the Pharaoh series of buildings of the same group are measured by the age of the stones used.

It was like the construction of the Sphinx. Some had said it was Khufu's, others thought it was Hafra's, and finally, judging by the age of the stone, they belonged to the same group as the latter's pyramids.

It was almost a professional habit of mine to start connecting the dots. I really want to dig a hole here if I have the chance.

But I was only thinking that if I couldn't get out after my water ran out, it would be a little dangerous, and I certainly couldn't die here before I ran out of water.

As I thought about this, I stopped in my tracks. Looking at the floor tiles engraved with the lines of the giant scarab, I was almost speechless.

I rummaged through my bag, picked out the least useful lighter, and threw it forward.

The walls on both sides immediately turned — "Sou!" "Whiz!" "Whiz!"

I was still unable to react just now. With a few 'shua shua' sounds, something flew by rapidly and pierced from the right to the left side. When I focused my eyes, it was actually all arrows.

I let out a long breath, glad that I hadn't done anything rash.

There were a few holes in the wall to the right, and when the arrow got right into the hole, the hole was blocked with a bang.

This mechanism is very ingenious. I'm not sure if it is a one-time use, but I rummaged through my bag again. I took out an entire bag of unknown metal pieces, picked one up, and threw it forward —

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"

I cursed under my breath and continued to throw — "Sou Sou Sou" — "Sou Sou".

"F * ck my dog!" I cursed, and threw it forward for the sixth time.

Eh? No arrows?

I was ecstatic, but I didn't dare to take a step forward. Yet, he heard the sound of Kara Kara above his head.

The sound lasted six seconds, then everything calmed down

I threw another piece of metal at him. At the same time, I counted the seconds in my mind.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"

"Hehe," No one looked at me and laughed, "So that's how it is."

First of all, the mechanism here was not a one-time one, but a circular one. It wasn't that they didn't wear out, but if there were no enemies, then they wouldn't be wasted. We started out on straight roads, and it would be a waste if someone like me threw things to test and couldn't recycle them.

Second, this is a 'two-way mechanism', but the other direction is inside the stone. This was what the "kara" noise had helped me to determine. Every time an arrow was delivered, it would be transported by a mechanism so that the arrow could be shot back. Every shot took five seconds to land on the other side of the wall. Five rounds at a time, so I couldn't hear the mechanism on top of my head for the first two seconds after five rounds, which meant that after the first five rounds, I would need time to change the arrow holes.

To put it simply, this set of mechanisms could fire five arrows at a time. Then, after the five rounds were over, I needed time to transport the arrows over. This time, together with the time I had to change the arrow hole up and down added up to the time I could pass.

In fact, I don't really want to go over. This thing is really exquisite. Back then on a mountain in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, we also dug such a tomb. However, it was before the Qin Dynasty, so it was much earlier and more dangerous than this place. The mausoleum did not finish in the end. Instead, it was forcibly repatriated halfway through.

The design was one after another, replenished as soon as it was consumed, and not like this one.

I cursed under my breath about the occupational disease. Why did I start analyzing it again?

I continued throwing coins and waited for another round to end before I took a deep breath and stepped on it!

Six seconds, six seconds!
