Chapter 16 Ghost Face Petroglyphs on the Plank Road
I found that what he said was not sincere. In fact, his eyes showed desire. The presence of a plank road in such a place means that many people have been here in the past. It seems that this place is not known to outsiders. The end of the plank road
What is hidden? Is it a civilization that has disappeared? Or some huge secret? No matter which one it is, it will be a major discovery.
I walked onto the plank road. I don’t know how many years of baptism it has made it a little shaky and shaky, but it shouldn’t be a big problem when I walk on it.
For the sake of safety, so many people did not go up all at once. The ropes we brought worked. We used a long rope to connect all of us, and everyone was five meters apart. In this case, it would be
If one person loses his footing and falls, the other seven people will bear the force of the fall and will not fall off the cliff.
This time I was still walking in the front, Shuiyue was always following behind me. I understood her thoughts. In her eyes, although I was much more experienced than others, I was just a slut compared to her. She naturally
Don't worry.
The first section of the plank road is not difficult to walk, but it becomes a bit difficult later on. In some places, the wooden boards have even rotted and fallen for a long time. At this time, we can only move forward slowly against the rock wall, and the speed increases.
There will undoubtedly be great restrictions.
Fortunately, the top of this plank road is raised outwards, so just like the corridor, it has not experienced much wind and rain, otherwise these wooden things would have rotted away long ago.
After walking about two hundred meters, murals began to appear on the rock wall next to them. They were different from anything we had seen before. They were all facial makeup, and all of them were strangely shaped faces, either vicious, mighty, or gloomy.
, or weird, which gives us a very weird feeling, as if there are many ghosts and monsters around us staring at us.
We encountered another fault ahead. This time it was different from before. Firstly, it was nearly 30 meters long. Secondly, this time the entire mountain protruded outward. Once the plank road was broken, there was no way to start.
It is difficult for us to climb over the 30-meter distance between where we put down our feet and use our strength.
After thinking about it for a long time, we didn't try it easily. This is a fatal thing. If we slip and fall, even if we have ten lives, we won't die.
Someone raised a question. Our guess is that the Yueyang family has already arrived, so how did they get there? There is no trace left here. Could it be that they did not come? Or is there another way to reach the end of this plank road?
There is no point in talking about this now. The only way we can do now is to find a way to climb over, but this time there is no such thing as eagle claws, and it is simply impossible to climb over the rock wall. This time we will
These eight people were all stumped.
However, the three cobblers were better than Zhuge Liang. We are all intellectuals after all, so we finally came up with a solution. This plank road was built in a very special way. First, circular holes were cut out of the mountain wall.
, then use the whole wood to cut it and stuff it in to fix it, and then build the corridor on top, it is very simple.
We compared it and found that the holes were all about the same size. It seemed that they were carefully measured before being dug. This gave us the opportunity. Since we couldn't find the way through, we might as well build a new one.
Well, the wood is also ready-made. We only need to dismantle the wood we walked through and stuff it into the hole in front to pave a new road.
This is a typical demolition of the east wall to make up for the west wall, but it is currently our best and safest method. Although it takes some time, it can better protect our lives.
The eight of us started to get busy. The three girls were responsible for dismantling the wood, Yang Yun and Han Qiwei were responsible for transporting the wood, and Liu Qingping and I were also responsible for building the plank road. The division of labor was detailed and the speed was not slow.
Since a lot of the wood has rotted, it will definitely not be as strong as it was if it were removed, so we had to try several times before we dared to get it up. It took us about two hours to finally remove the damaged section.
The plank road is almost repaired. Although the gap in the middle is relatively large, I think it can still be easily passed as long as you are careful.
I had already reached the other side, and Liu Qingping was following closely behind me. When I saw that he was about to come over, I suddenly screamed, my feet suddenly flew away, and I fell completely.
Fortunately, each of us was connected with a rope. Although he fell, his weight was equally shared by the seven of us, so he did not fall off the cliff. I hugged a piece of wood next to me tightly to prevent him from falling.
He took him down, and the six people on the opposite side pulled him hard like a tug of war, and soon they got him up.
Liu Qingping, who was still in shock, looked at the rock wall with a surprised expression before he could catch his breath. Without waiting for anyone to ask, he yelled: "A ghost has come out. A ghost has come out. Sir, I just saw the eyes of the grimace above here moving. Mother."
It really scared me to death."
"Liu Qingping, are you dazzled? These are just rock paintings, not real ghosts. How can there be any weird things like you said? I was paying attention just now, why didn't I see it?" Song Meiting hurriedly retorted, a pair of big
Her eyes kept darting around. I guess she is the most timid among us. She always seemed a little nervous along the way. I couldn't figure out why she, a delicate girl, wanted to stay in the first place. This was not for me.
Are you going to find fault on your own?
"Impossible, my uncle's eyes are so perceptive. How could I possibly see it wrong, sir, with such big eyes? I clearly saw it. Not only was it moving, but it was also moving with personality."
"You used the wrong word. Eyes also have personality? What do you mean by moving with personality?" Song Meiting curled her lips.
"Yes, this guy likes to say irrelevant things. He was like this when he was in school. It hasn't changed at all now. He talks like a 250-year-old." Han Qiwei also fanned the flames.
"Damn it, Turtle Sun, are you doubting my judgment?" Liu Qingping gritted his teeth and looked at Han Qiwei, looking a little impulsive.
"Do you have the ability to judge or just say that you saw it when so many of us didn't see it? This is fundamentally uncredible. I suspect it was just a trick to scare us." Han Qiwei showed disdain.
"Okay, it seems you all think I'm talking nonsense if I don't get something real, right? OK, I'll prove it to you now." After saying that, he walked to the cliff and pointed the electric light at the grimace petroglyph.
Search carefully.
Not long after, he let out a strange cry, took a step back, and said, "Damn, there really is something. Come and take a look."
When I got closer, I immediately discovered that there was something really special about the ghost face. There were two holes for the eyes, the size of a fist, and it was pitch black inside. I don't know how deep it was.
We all looked at each other in shock. We didn't expect that these ghost face rock paintings were really interesting. We hurriedly looked at other rock paintings and found that there were two holes for the eyes on each ghost face. This was definitely intentional, otherwise it wouldn't have happened.
The location is such a coincidence, but what is its function? It is currently unknown.
Thinking that Liu Qingping just said that the eyes of these grimaces were moving, I couldn't help but feel startled. I had an ominous premonition that this might not be a good thing. I looked up at Shuiyue and saw that her expression was a little serious, which made me feel a little unreasonable.
He panicked and hurriedly shouted: "We can't stay here, let's leave quickly, otherwise we may be in trouble."
"What trouble? It's just a few holes. Can't we just plug them up?" Liu Qingping muttered, but seeing the anxious look on my face, he crawled over quickly.
We have repaired most of the plank road, but there is still a gap of two to three meters. At this time, we did not care about repairing it. Liu Qingping and I pulled and pulled each one over.
Just when the last person arrived, from the corner of my eye I saw a few black shadows emerging from the stone wall, flying into the air and hovering above our heads.
"Quack..." An unpleasant cry sounded out, and we immediately understood what it was.
"Crow?" Liu Qingping cursed, and as soon as his voice fell, I could only hear the sound of flapping wings suddenly approaching, and then he cursed loudly: "It hurts me to death, these crows are nagging, how can the mother-in-law crows crow?"
people?"
The sounds of flapping wings above became more and more frequent, and I knew they must be coming from those holes. I couldn't help but shine a light on it, and suddenly I felt a numb scalp.
It’s already so dark that it’s hard to count, and the number is still increasing rapidly, giving a feeling of infinity.
I have never heard of crows attacking a living person. This time it was obviously different. Not only Liu Qingping, but also each of us were attacked. Especially they are very sensitive to light. As long as there is light, they will not be afraid of death.
thrust forward.
"Turn off the light and untie the rope from your body." Shuiyue called.
"No, brothers and sisters, there are gaps everywhere on this plank road. You can't see it without light. If you accidentally fall, you will die."
"There is no way, they are very sensitive to light. If the lights are still on, we will become their food before we leave. And we can't stay here, we have to move forward. We can only rely on luck. Yes.
Everyone, hurry up and cover your heads. Human eyes can also emit light. Although it is very weak, they can see it. We can only move forward by touching the mountain. There is only one way, and we will not go wrong."
Out of trust in Shuiyue, I first followed suit and covered my head with clothes. My eyes suddenly became darker, as if I suddenly became blind. This feeling was very uncomfortable. Because people are dependent on their eyes.
Sexually, even if I keep my eyes open in the dark, I won't panic even if I can't see. But now that I cover my eyes, I don't even dare to walk.
