Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 173

Everyone noticed something strange, and asked the fat man to move away, and found that some incense ash was embedded in the fine cracks on the surface of the stone, forming some lines.And obviously, these lines are very round, not the texture of the stone surface itself.

"There are words." Wu Xie picked up the censer and sprinkled incense ash on the ground, and spread it with his hands. Soon, more subtle lines began to appear on the ground and rock walls.

They hurriedly helped, and covered a large area with incense ash, and a crooked text appeared in front of them.These characters are all in traditional characters, carved in extremely rough, some are almost blurred, but there are quite a lot of them, densely packed in large and small sizes.The inscription is very shallow, and it should have been simply drawn on the rock wall with stones, without the use of professional carving tools.

"Lord Lei, you have manifested so quickly, thank you for your blessing... Thank you for your blessing..." The fat man bowed to the idol again.

"Okay, stop praying blindly, I don't know what it is yet, let's take a look first." Wu Xie said.

The characters engraved on it were read vertically, and they arranged it and re-carved it on the rocky ground on one side with stones.This is a very simple sentence: "November and seven days. The east wall, seven feet from the left, has sixteen. The west wall, three feet from the left, has seven. The north wall, five feet from the left, has ten. The south There are four walls, six feet from the left. If you count them carefully, they must be excavated and resumed work within three days."

"This is... a record of the mining measurement in this cave?" Wu Xie looked at the passage, the number should be the measurement of the mining project.

Wu Xie stood up, walked to the far left of the east wall, and measured seven feet with his finger, which is about two meters away, to see what was there, but there were still countless dark green traces on the surface of the rock. Nothing at all.

"Could it be inside?" Aning's understanding of that passage was that there might be something in the distance between these four walls, so it needs to be dug out.

"Inside? Is it possible that this is the record of their completion, and the things inside have already been excavated by them." Wu Xie guessed.

And Mengli took a little incense ash from the ground and put it in her hand, and then sprinkled it on the rock wall. The rock wall unexpectedly showed the same lines as on the rock floor, which seemed to be the outline of something, and it seemed to be irregular. , seems to be the reference to be provided when cutting.

"The things inside don't seem to have been excavated." Wu Xie said suspiciously. At that time, they needed to dig out the things inside but they didn't seem to be successful. Is the method wrong?Or is there some other reason, "Is there any special process when mining jade?"

"Didn't you use explosives?" The fat man felt that these hard things should be used in a simple and rough way.

"Stupid, explosives, you might as well say that you are going to blow up this hole." Meng Li gave him a blank look and said, it's not serious at this time.

The little brother said: "First burn it with fire, and then pour cold water on it to make the stone split naturally."

"Splash with water, I know..." Wu Xie seemed to have thought of something all of a sudden, and quickly pulled the fat man to fetch water with the incense burner, and then splashed it on the rock wall for an unknown number of times. seeps and deepens.

Looking back a few steps, due to the splashing of water, the jade veins on the rock surface have become blurred, while other parts have become smooth and transparent.It turns out that these stones are also jade, but the content is different, so they look very ordinary in front of other dark green jadeites.At the same time, they actually saw a looming shadow appearing from that rock wall, and it seemed to be a human figure.

"This is...a person?" Wu Xie looked at the rock wall in front of him, very surprised, "How could it be a person? If it is really a person, how did he get into this rock wall?"

"Haven't you heard of the fish in the stone? The legend of the fish in the stone is that a complete rock was found to be hollow inside, and not only was there water, but there was also a live fish in the water." It’s okay to be inside, why can’t people?”

Wu Xie took a breath, looked at the figure in the stone, and shook his head, "Impossible, it must be just a shadow that looks like a man."

"Isn't it? Just keep splashing and you'll know. There's more than one thing written on the ground." The fat man said.

They immediately repeated the same trick, and quickly poured water on all four walls.

As all the rocks were soaked, Wu Xie was horrified to find that the nearby rocks were really filled with human-shaped shadows, with various movements.

The inside of the cave wall seems to be completely inlaid with people.

After counting it, it was exactly the same as what was recorded on the ground.

"What a ghost!" Fatty sat down again, "No wonder he was asked to go out, what the hell is going on?"

"Could it be a Kunlun fetus?" Ah Ning recalled the saying that heaven and earth produce essence. Could it be that this is a treasure cave, and the emerald has been transformed into a human by some mysterious force?

The fat man shook his head: "Kunlun tires are just a legend after all, and they are said to be very large mountains. These shadows have weird shapes. I don't think they are good things, and..." He looked at the shelf with the iron figurines on the side, "I I may have misjudged just now, do you see that the movements of these shadows are very similar to those iron figurines?"

Wu Xie was so surprised that he couldn't speak, the fat man then turned pale and said, "I know this is scary, but I saw that the tools here are all made of cast iron, so I suddenly thought of this possibility."

Wu Xie looked at those figures, "You mean, these iron figurines are not means of transportation, but are used to seal the shadows they dug out?"

"I'm afraid it's more than that simple." The fat man corrected, "These iron figurines are probably the things they processed. They may first drill holes in the rock wall, then fill them with iron slurry, freeze the people inside, and finally Smash it out again."

Wu Xie felt goosebumps all over his body when he thought of the countless iron figurines he saw in the basement of the ancient building. If so, how many such things had to be dug up here?

He forced a smile: "This is just our speculation."

Fatty's complexion was still pale, obviously he felt that his thoughts were terrible, and he said: "Actually, there is a way, that is, smash this stone now and see what the shadow inside is." Pointing to the side of the mason's hammer.

Aning shook his head and retorted: "The previous craftsmen used such a laborious method to deal with it. Obviously, the real bodies of these figures are very scary, ominous, and even very dangerous. It is better not to move."

Hearing what she said, the fat man turned his head to his brother, as if he wanted to ask for his opinion.

The little brother stared at those shadows, did not answer him, but said to them: "We and them... are actually the same."

Wu Xie asked: "Brother, do you have any ideas? Just say it!"

The little brother just stared at those shadows without answering, Mengli said, "Have you ever thought about what would be our situation now if such a mine hadn't been dug out here?"

Wu Xie thought about it, felt that his brain was a bit dull, and still didn't understand what he meant, but the fat man's complexion immediately turned pale, and he cursed: "I. Fuck!"

Aning's face was also pale, obviously she also understood.

Then Wu Xie understood, and the scalp on the back of his head exploded.

If this isn't a mine, what is it?

Here is the rock face, the interior of the mountain.If they were inexplicably brought here in the same way, then now, they may be embedded in the rock wall, exactly like those shadows.

Wu Xie shuddered.What does it feel like?It would be terrible if he woke up and found himself embedded in the rock wall deep in the mountain, unable to move, and had to do so until he died.

He still said with luck: "There are differences, at least we are alive."

The little brother glanced at him and said: "Conversely, thinking about this matter, maybe it is a coincidence that we are alive now."

Wu Xie nodded silently.

This strange thing may be a mysterious phenomenon in this mountain, and it may not be the first time it has happened in the mountain.Even if no one was digging mines here back then, things would still happen, and their current situation would be even more unbelievable.

The fat man swallowed, looked at those figures, and said, "So, these are our predecessors? Are they victims of the same thing before?"

"This is only a possibility." The little brother said, "However, I would rather believe it."

Mengli looked at those shadows and smiled wryly in her heart. I would rather believe that those were victims of the same thing than Miluotuo!

Wu Xie understood what the little brother meant.If this is a strange natural phenomenon, his previous deduction may be wrong, so no matter how unfavorable their situation is, at least they are safe for the time being.

The fat man asked: "Naive, you read a lot of books, you speculate, what might be the matter? If it is like what the little brother said, what might be the situation?"

Wu Xie smiled and said: "It's useless to read more books about this kind of thing. You have to explain it with what you can learn from reading, which is the concept of physics. We may have fallen into the gap between two spaces. The child is stuffed here from one place. But in reality, this is impossible. Even if you really enter the naturally formed space crack, the place where you reappear will be another universe, and the possibility of appearing in the same area is rare to infinity close to zero."

There are many legends about this kind of thing in the world. In some very special places, such as Bermuda, it is said that this phenomenon exists.But he didn't believe this was the case here. The process of the fat man and the little brother losing consciousness at the bottom of the lake didn't look like they were dealt with by a "natural phenomenon" at all, it was too much like being plotted against by someone using something.

Therefore, Wu Xie agrees with my brother's previous opinion: the power to bring them here is definitely meaningful and purposeful.

Fatty didn't think so, he said: "The possibility is so small that it's infinitely close to zero, and it's not equal to zero."

Aning said: "There is only one explanation if it is explained by science. If it is not like this, the situation we are facing is completely another category."

Fatty fell into deep thought, and said to himself, "Is there such a thing in the legends left by our ancestors?"

Wu Xie thought about it. He had never seen a record of a figure appearing in a rock in any notebook novels before. Of course, maybe he didn't study extensively enough.
