Sister Hong did some ideological work on me for a long time, and finally I was persuaded.
Isn't there an old saying, as long as you work hard, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle? Sister Hong kept emphasizing my importance in a serious manner, which made me feel a little elated.
The Sanhe soil in tombs is very hard, but it is afraid of children's urine and edible vinegar. This is the biggest weakness of Sanhe soil. It may involve some chemical knowledge. If you are interested in this aspect, you can buy some Sanhe soil from the tomb robbers and take it yourself.
Soak it in vinegar at home and see if it softens. You will know after you try it.
Why is there emphasis on children's urine? I didn't understand this at first, but Sister Hong told me that it may be that children's urine is weakly acidic, while adult men's urine is weakly alkaline.
Next, I kept drinking water, and kept drinking from the water gourd. When my stomach became bloated, I leaned against the wall to rest. As soon as I felt the need to urinate, I quickly drained the water.
I struck accurately and aimed at the same spot every time. As soon as the Sanhe soil softened, Sister Hong started to hit it with rocks.
We secretly piled the broken soil that fell from the wall into a corner, and then simply covered it with a sack. Lao Xu’s head was also buried in the pile. Otherwise, seeing a human head accidentally would scare people to death.
I don’t know what the standard of water poisoning is. Anyway, when I drink water and sleep, I pour water against the wall. I feel like I’m swollen from drinking water.
Maybe two days have passed, or three days.
On this day, I suddenly heard the sound of a stone lid.
"Quick! Quick!"
Seeing someone coming from above, I shouted quickly.
Sister Hong and Researcher An stood up immediately, and they immediately used their bodies to block the pits on the wall and the small mounds of dirt in the corners. This is what we have practiced in the past few days, and we have done it this way several times before. Because we know how to send
The guy who is eating will not come down. He will only take a look from above at most, as long as he sees the three of us there.
The rice served was all white steamed buns. The steamed buns were very dry and cracked. The clear message was that we didn't have to starve to death.
I shouted up: "Hey, brother, can you bring me a bucket of water? I've finished drinking it."
"Day," the man shook his flashlight downwards. He looked at the bottomed bucket and cursed loudly: "You are all fucking cows! In just a few days, you drank two fucking buckets of water!"
No cow can drink as well as you!"
I had a ghost in my heart, so I explained loudly: "Brother, that girl has had diarrhea recently. She may have dysentery. If she doesn't drink more water, she will become dehydrated and die!" I pointed to the corner of the wall and looked pale.
Researcher An.
"Fuck! Let me tell you, no wonder you can smell such a strong smell of urine as soon as you open the lid. Tie the bucket to a rope and move back! Stay away!"
"Okay, okay," I immediately tied the empty bucket to the rope and stepped back to keep my distance.
The ladder had been taken away a few days ago, the bucket was pulled up little by little, and then the lid above was closed.
After waiting for less than half an hour, a bucket full of water was brought down by a rope. This person worked quickly. I secretly thought that maybe this person had to explain himself and did not dare to let anything happen to us. After all, people do not eat for three or two days.
You won't die of hunger, but you can die of thirst if you lack water.
"People should go far away," then Sister Hong and I looked at each other.
The wall was not as thick as we imagined. We worked day and night, and the pit in the wall gradually became bigger and bigger.
Sister Hong tapped lightly a few times, and the sound here was different from other places. It should be connected soon. Sister Hong also said doubtfully: "It's strange, why is it different from what I expected?
I thought I would dig up the remains of previous victims, but there was nothing."
I advised Sister Hong not to think too much. After all, there are so many things going on now, and we still don’t know where the wall leads to. Don’t open it to the underground river or cliff on the other side, otherwise it will be over.
That group of people definitely don’t know about this either, which means that there may be a new undiscovered location behind this wall. What it is exactly, you have to look at it to know.
A few hours later, a small breeze came in.
"It's cleared!" I looked overjoyed. The wind blowing in from outside meant that it was cleared.
After smashing away the last layer of soil, a half-meter-long black hole appeared in the wall. A slight cool breeze blew in, and Sister Hong tried her best to peek out.
"Why, how could this happen..."
"What's wrong, Sister Hong? What's going on outside? Did you find anything?"
Sister Hong's face was uncertain, and she said in a deep voice: "I'm going to go over there first, and if I continue to stay here, the nights will be long and I'll have many dreams. I've probably calculated the time, and there are still more than three hours before they come down to deliver food. During this time, we have to
Stay as far away from here as possible."
"Who told you to follow us?" Seeing that Researcher An was about to run away with us, Sister Hong raised her eyebrows and said.
Researcher An held the corners of his clothes with both hands and whispered: "I...please take me with you. I don't want to die yet. I promise, I won't hold you back."
"Coward," Sister Hong turned to the side with an unhappy face and stopped talking. It seemed that she had left the decision-making power to me.
Researcher An had disheveled hair and dirty face. She just looked at me pitifully.
"Sister Hong, how about we take her with us and run away together? We can do this because she has helped, right?" I softened my heart and begged for her.
"Okay," Sister Hong pointed at her and said, "You can follow us, but this time you get through first."
Sister Hong had beaten her before, and Researcher An knew in her heart that she was being used as a guinea pig. She was also scared when she looked at the dark hole in the wall, but she was even more afraid that we would leave her alone, so she didn't dare to say anything.
We pushed from behind and let Researcher An get through first.
After waiting on the spot for five minutes, Researcher An's voice came: "I'm fine, the ground here is a bit thin, you can come over too."
I was the second to go, and Sister Hong was the last.
"No, there's so much mud here." I felt something was wrong as soon as I landed. I looked around and saw mud everywhere. It was difficult to walk on it, just like stepping in the mud at the bottom of a river.
I turned around and asked Sister Hong if she knew anything about this place.
Sister Hong mused thoughtfully: "Yunfeng, do you remember the wooden mountain we saw when we first came in?"
"Mushan...Sister Hong, you are talking about the intestines, right? I know, we have seen the murals on the wall. At that time, the second brother said that we were close to each other because we smelled the cypress trees.
I had an old face, so I had hallucinations when I was looking at the murals. I didn’t wake up with that bottle of medicine.” I recalled the scene at that time.
"I said something was wrong, so they appeared here." Sister Hong looked around and recalled: "The content on the mural I saw was not only a coffin, but also a muddy swamp. And, if I remember correctly,
, a total of one person appears on the mural.”
"So you had that reaction just now?" I looked at her and said.
"You must be too suspicious, Sister Hong. Have you forgotten what Third Brother and the others said at that time? The old face of yellow cypress can make people hallucinate after smelling it. Those are not true. After all, there are only three of us now.
, you said you saw a person on the mural."
I looked at the silent surroundings and said, "Is it possible that the other three people are around us but we can't see them?"
