Chapter 18 Chapter Seventeen

"Liang Ke!" A hoarse growl woke me up.Opening his eyes, two human heads floated in front of his eyes.One has thick glasses on a polygonal face, and the other has a dignified appearance, with a long snot trailing from his nostrils. "Liang Ke..." I sat up slowly, Wei Datou and Li Dazui hugged me indiscriminately, their shoulders kept shaking.Behind them are Professor Tan, Uncle Yan and others.They all looked at me with concern and relief. "Your heart stopped beating for 3 minutes just now, we almost..." Old Wei took off his glasses and pretended to wipe his sweat, but actually wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

Li Dazui poked my head with his hands, and said bitterly: "I told you to run around, I told you to run around, I almost lost my life." "Don't poke," Old Wei hurriedly stopped him, "If you poke something wrong, it's over." I pointed at Li Dazui weakly: "Your snot is going to touch me." Li Dazui gave me a hug and stood up: "You are usually in such good health, why did you run two steps?" Just fainted and even had a heart problem?" I knew in my heart that the lump of ecstatic snot must be hanging on my right shoulder, but I couldn't answer Lao Li's question.We all had a physical examination before departing from S University to Urumqi, and my report can even be a sample of a healthy body.

From Lao Wei and Lao Li's chaotic and robbing each other's narration, I roughly understand what happened in the past 3 minutes.They followed me only a dozen steps away, and when they caught up with me, I fell to the ground unconscious.Uncle Yan, Professor Tan and others rushed over after hearing Lao Wei's yelling. At this time, I checked and found that I had no heartbeat.Lao Wei and Lao Li performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on me, and through the rejuvenation of the two masters, I saved my life. "How long?" I asked. "What?" Lao Li didn't respond for a while.

I adjusted my breathing and said in a low voice, "How long did it take from when you found me to when I woke up?" Old Wei thought for a while and replied: "No more than 4 minutes... But, it's very long." is very long. I stretched out my hand to Old Wei: "Pull me up." Old Wei hesitated for a moment: "You should lie down for a while, we are all worried about you." I smiled wryly, and stood up on the ground with my hands. I heard Gao Hong's complaint not far away: "I just said that the archaeological team shouldn't bring lesbians this time. There are so many troubles."

Standing next to Gao Hong was Xiang Zhiyuan. He didn't respond to Gao Hong's words, his eyes followed the flashlight and swept back and forth on the rock wall not far behind us.After a while, he turned his head and shouted to the crowd: "Professor Tan, Qin Suo, look at this rock wall!" Professor Tan stood beside me and put his arms around my shoulders.Her warm and strong hands calmed my chaotic mind gradually.Uncle Yan on the other side had already turned on the emergency lights, and the dazzling light broke through the darkness in an instant and reflected on the huge and boundless rock wall.

"My God..." Almost at the same time, these two words were sighed from the mouth of the person staring at the rock wall.Professor Tan and I looked towards the rock wall, and our eyes could no longer leave the scene in front of us.Rather than saying that this is an original mural, it is better to say that it is a hideous symbol from the dark world.Starting from the excavation of the ancient Moshan country site, extending to the Xiaohe cemetery and the ancient tomb ditch cemetery, I have always had enough respect for the cognition of this group of humans from the distant Black Coast who lived on the Rob wasteland.I always thought that from a professional point of view, the mission of archaeologists is to restore historical facts and restore the cultural and social life of each remains we excavated.But as I consciously or forced to go deeper, the mysteries presented by this deserted country, dry land, and weird religious rituals are beyond my cognition, far beyond the significance of archaeology, and become a life-changing experience. The adventure of betting.

On the rock face is a huge human face. The area of ​​the human face is estimated to be about 10 by 15 meters by visual inspection, and it was carved on the rock wall by chiseling with tools.If only from the perspective of observation, this carving is much more mature than the swastika superposition patterns we have seen.Although huge and frightening, the technique is delicate.It has exaggerated and abrupt eyes, a fierce expression, and even sharp teeth can be seen in the huge open mouth.It is this lifelike depiction of the gods that makes people feel deeply shocked when they look directly at it.

"Professor Tan, Qin Suo, what is this?" Uncle Yan broke the silence. Qin Suo glanced at Professor Tan, and pondered: "It's hard to say. Its composition is relatively precise, and it is different from the analogy or symbolic images seen in the past. It should be a work in the middle and late stages of early culture." Professor Tan said: "I agree with Qin Institute's point of view. In the early depictions of Xiaohe Cemetery and Gumugou Cemetery, there is no such precise brushwork. But why did early humans in northern Xinjiang spend so much energy carving such a painting? A human face? Wait, there is text here."

Professor Tan stepped forward and pointed to the lower right side of the face with his finger. Sure enough, there were several Tocharian characters there.Uncle Yan motioned for him, and he quickly adjusted the light source. This line of writing is visible in the light of the emergency lights.However, this is not what excites us the most. What really made us boil from the bottom of our hearts is that we saw a closed stone gate under the text in the nearly one thousand meters underground. ewelp tuan mat Uncle Yan stepped forward and raised his arm, but his fingers couldn't reach the text.But compared with the hidden stone door, the size of the door is almost just enough to accommodate a half-human body.Uncle Yan turned back and asked Qin Suo, "What does this line of writing mean?"

Even if Uncle Yan didn't ask any questions, Qin Suo's gaze seemed to be attracted by a huge magnetic force, and he stayed on the Tocharian characters.Uncle Yan asked again, and Qin Suo woke up like a dream. "This... this line of text..." Qin Suo murmured a little, and there was a look of panic in his eyes.Lao Li said to Lao Wei: "I said that Qin Suo was fooling you, but now he has exposed his secrets. I think he may not understand Tocharian script at all." Lao Li's voice was not too loud, just enough to be heard by Qin.Qin Suo was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I can understand it. But..."

Everyone's eyes were on Qin Suo, but he was watching Uncle Yan.Uncle Yan didn't look at him again, but carefully inspected Shimen with the emergency light. "Qin Suo, please speak directly. We have long put life and death aside, so there is nothing we can't say." Old Wei adjusted his glasses, his voice was calm, but his expression was stern. Qin Suo pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind: "The meaning of this line is—" He raised his head to look at the huge strange human face, "Death abyss." He seemed a little unconfident, and quickly added: "Early witchcraft and the concept of life and death were all based on simple analogies and symbolic connections. The hideous human face paintings on the rock walls are a kind of threat and The meaning of deterrence. I believe this is an ominous place. I suggest... we don't enter. If we go further down, we should find other things. Old Yan, believe me, this will not be the place we are looking for." Uncle Yan looked at Shimen carefully, but didn't speak.Just then, I heard a faint voice.This person has not spoken for a long time, and I almost forgot his existence. "Qin Suo, why did you deliberately mistranslate this line?" Chen Wei's thin body was unremarkable in the crowd, his face was pale and sick.His words were like a bomb, shocking everyone. We were startled by the words "death abyss" at first, but before we could recover, Chen Wei's words made us fall into confusion again. Everyone looked at Chen Wei in surprise, but he walked forward calmly and stood in front of Qin Suo.He didn't look like he was in the depths of nearly a thousand meters underground, at the moment of life and death, but he looked like he was strolling in the campus and met acquaintances. "Is this Chen Wei?" Li Dazui really whispered this time, only Wei Wei and I could hear: "I always thought he was born without a gallbladder." Old Wei turned a deaf ear and looked at Chen Wei with his mouth wide open.I think Old Wei must be full of resentment and remorse at this moment. If he had read more books on language history before the archaeological team set off, it would be him, not Chen Wei, who should be in the limelight now. Yu Yanyan took a few steps forward and stood between Chen Wei and Qin Suo: "Chen Wei, what basis do you have to say that Qin Suo made a mistake on purpose? Make it clear." Qin Suo was standing under the face of the rock wall, looking like a deep silhouette.Qin Suo asked Chen Weidao: "Can you understand Tocharian? Then what do you think this line of words means?" Chen Wei smiled slightly: "You translated at least one word correctly, tuan does mean death. But mat and ewelp don't mean abyss." He turned to Uncle Yan and pointed to the line of text: "I don't know why Qin Suo deliberately mistranslated this line of text. Because in a literal sense, Uncle Yan, what you are looking for is in it." Uncle Yan said coldly, "Do you know what I'm looking for?" Chen Wei shook his head slightly, as if sighing: "mat means tree in Tocharian language. When I first saw this word, I was very strange, because there can't be trees nearly a thousand meters underground. But When I saw the last word, I suddenly understood. Uncle Yan, the nineteen years you have been searching for for nineteen years, and the nineteen years of pain, can end here." Chen Wei's eyes lit up, shining in the darkness Guang, "ewelp means boat, boat. The interpretation of this sentence means - tree, death, success, boat!" "I understand!" Old Wei slapped his thigh, as if waking up from a dream.He quickly approached the stone wall, groped for the rough and hard surface with his hands, turned his head and said excitedly: "This sentence is the key to interpreting the oath in the black-clothed boat-shaped coffin we saw! All along, we thought that the boat Shaped coffins are a unique burial custom in the Luobu wasteland area, but they never thought that it had other meanings. The ancestors of the Xiaohe-Gumugou cultural circle must have used this special kind of boat as a way to cross the sea of ​​death after death. Symbol. A tree dies into a boat-this is really a very clear meaning. Combined with the fact that northern Xinjiang was once the only place where the ancient Silk Road and Buddhism were introduced, influenced by its cultural blending, boats in the spiritual world The coffin is a vehicle for 'crossing', which coincides with the belief in death, rebirth and even eternal life." After Lao Wei finished speaking, he suddenly gasped, looked at Uncle Yan, and then at Chen Wei. Almost at the same time, both Professor Tan and Uncle Yan couldn't help asking Chen Wei, but the content of the questions were different. What Uncle Yan asked was: "Do you know what I'm looking for?" Professor Tan asked: "How can you read Tocharian?" This is also a question that hangs over our minds.Chen Wei's cowardice and cowardice are well known in the team, and at this moment he suddenly appeared in such a unique drama, which made people puzzled. Chen Wei first nodded to Professor Tan, with a calm and composed expression: "Professor Tan, I had already anticipated what we would encounter before coming here. So I have already mastered Mr. Ji Xianlin's interpretation of Tocharian language. You don't have to ask me why , the cause and effect of many things at this time have already been doomed. As for what you are looking for, Uncle Yan," Chen Wei paused for a moment, then lowered his voice, "What you are looking for is different from what I am looking for, we each take what we need , parallel without hindrance. So you don't have to worry that I will be your stumbling block." Uncle Yan sneered: "Pretending to be a ghost——can you deceive people just by relying on your childish tricks?" Chen Wei shook his head, his voice was a little sad: "Uncle Yan, you have spent nineteen years of restless days and nights. During these times when life was worse than death, what you were looking for was not to bring your wife back to life?" Although we vaguely guessed from Uncle Yan's previous words and actions that all of Uncle Yan's plans were not aimed at cultural relics, we were still shocked when we heard Chen Wei directly mentioning Uncle Yan's purpose at this moment.Although Uncle Yan in front of him was wearing a mask, he still looked hideous, but seeing his shadow stretched by the emergency lights, he was indescribably lonely.This person can make decisive decisions and rule a group of former professional soldiers with absolute authority.But there was a piece missing in his heart, and what he was looking for was such a missing that would never be possible. Uncle Yan looked sternly at Gengzi, Lao Liu and the others.None of his subordinates spoke and stood there quietly. "It seems that Chen Wei is the ghost in our team." I whispered to Lao Wei and Lao Li. "No," Lao Li looked at Chen Wei and Uncle Yan thoughtfully, "it's because Uncle Yan's team has a ghost." Old Wei added: "The ghost in our team must be someone else." I thought for a while, and finally understood the mystery of this.It seems that Uncle Yan doesn't know Chen Wei well, but Chen Wei knows Uncle Yan's situation quite well and came prepared.In this way, there are ghosts in Uncle Yan's team.And who is the ghost in our archaeological team? "Needless to say, open the stone gate and you will know the truth." Gengzi finally said so after a long silence. "No, it can't be opened!" Qin Suo's voice sounded anxiously, he almost begged Uncle Yan, "What is sealed here is the god of death, not the temple of rebirth!" "Shut up!" Gengzi snapped. This time Uncle Yan didn't stop Gengzi from disrespecting Qin Suo, but just looked at them coldly.Seeing that the pleading was ineffective, Qin turned to Professor Tan and pleaded: "Professor Tan, please persuade Lao Yan, I know he wants to..." We were all listening to Qin Suo's determination to persuade Professor Tan to help prevent Uncle Yan from entering Shimen, but we didn't expect that these words were just a smokescreen.Before he could finish a sentence, Qin Suo had already rushed to Lao Liu's side, snatched the pistol from his waist, then reached out to wrap his arms around the neck of Yu Yanyan who was closest to him, and put the gun on Yanyan's temple. "No one is allowed to enter this stone gate!" He roared hoarsely, his hand with the gun trembling. Gengzi's response was unusually quick.Almost at the same time that Qin Suo took the gun and held Yu Yanyan hostage, Geng Zi had already reached out and pulled Zhu Liang to hold it with the gun.He didn't speak, just looked at Uncle Yan and waited for orders. Uncle Yan's eyes closed slowly, and he raised his head to face the dark dome.After a moment he lets out a breath, like a sigh that falls quietly. "Qin Sanyu, why are you doing this?" Qin Suo roared again: "Old Yan, listen to me, don't go in! I won't lie to you!" Uncle Yan said coldly: "If you dare to touch Yanyan, I will make your life worse than death." Qin Suo's face was contorted due to excitement, and the elegance and elegance of the past no longer existed: "I would rather die than live! Old Yan, if there is hell, it is right in front of your eyes!" Uncle Yan shook his head, "No matter what, I must go in—Qin Sanyu, you have already gone in, haven't you?" He pointed to the stone gate, "This stone gate has traces of being moved. Qin Sanyu, Qin Suo, you I went in and came out. Now, I must go in and find out. Even if there is only one ten thousandth hope, I will not give up." The muscles on Qin Suo's face kept trembling. He opened the safety of the gun and stuck it deeply on Yanyan's temple.In the blink of an eye, Yu Yanyan suddenly coughed lightly. At the moment Qin Suo was distracted, she slammed Qin Suo's abdomen with her back elbow, then quickly grabbed Qin Suo's right hand and snatched the gun away. She moved extremely quickly, but she gasped a little afterwards, and stroked her right shoulder with her left hand.The sixth child hurried forward, trying to take the gun from Yu Yanyan's hand.Yu Yanyan hesitated for a moment, saw that Gengzi's pistol was pointing in the direction of our archaeological team, and then handed it to Lao Liu. She looked at Qin Suo who was lying on the ground moaning in pain, and said in a relaxed voice, "I've said everything I need to say, I know what I need to know, and now it's time to open the stone gate." Tudou and Xiaofei on the other side had already started to move, pushing the stone door open together.The sound of the stone gate rubbing against the ground was low and disturbing, and the hideous human face on the rock wall looked at us silently. A wide opening appeared in front of him.Gengzi was the first to walk, holding the emergency light, and we helped Qin Suo and Zhu Liang, who was already limp, and followed. Old Li whispered: "If Chen Wei is right, then we can go home soon." Old Wei looked solemn and shook his head: "If what Qin said is true, we will go back to another home." When I passed the stone gate, I looked back at Qin Suo.The distortion on his face gradually recovered, and the suave and handsome man calmed down, but there was still a sad look on his face.His eyes met mine, he tried to squeeze out a smile, and sighed, "This is fate." I never thought that such a low and helpless exclamation would make Uncle Yan lose control.He quickly rushed over from the end of the line, put his elbow on Qin Suo's neck, and pushed him back to the rock wall with no way out.The MP5 in his hand was pressed against Qin Suo's chest, and I heard Uncle Yan's voice almost gnashing his teeth: "If it wasn't...if it wasn't...then there wouldn't be such a shitty fate." Uncle Yan's voice was fierce and cold behind the mask, with deep resentment.We were horrified, not knowing why Uncle Yan, who had always been respectful to Qin Suo, was so furious. "You can't bear it at last..." Qin Suo sighed, "Shoot, who hasn't endured the pain in the past twenty years?" Uncle Yan and Qin Suo confronted each other for a moment, then let go of their hands, and put the MP5 on their shoulders.He hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand to straighten Qin Suo's crooked collar, patted his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Old Qin, let's go." I stood at the stone gate and quickly exchanged glances with the two senior brothers.Lao Li waved his hand to me, signaling me to leave quickly, and don't provoke Uncle Yan again by any accident.The MP5 in his hand is not a toy. Turning around, I vaguely heard Uncle Yan whispering to Qin Suo: "Don't talk to me about fate. No matter whether it is heaven, god or human beings, I will kill whoever gets in the way." The strange conversation between Uncle Yan and Qin Suo made me full of doubts.But soon, when I entered the stone gate, this doubt was so insignificant compared to what I was about to face.Although at first glance, there is no difference between the inside and outside of the Shimen, both are boundless darkness. The first feeling after entering the door is that it is very empty.There are a lot fewer strange rocks and columns here, and it is still a rock wall structure.After we entered one after another, Uncle Yan ordered Lao Liu and Tudou to reset the stone gate. "He is afraid that someone will escape." Old Wei whispered. The corners of Li Dazui's mouth trembled, and he leaned over and whispered to us, "I feel something is wrong." Li Dazui's intuition is always accurate, except for finding a wife, he basically followed his intuition for other things.Lao Wei is a person who bases everything on reason, and relies on logical analysis and judgment in doing things.But this time Old Wei nodded and swallowed: "I, I also feel something is wrong." Gengzi's emergency lights swept across the space around us.The pale and scattered lights tore through pieces of darkness, and after the light slipped through, those darkness gathered up again, quietly lurking.I can't see anything special, but the silence makes people flustered. Uncle Yan turned around and asked Qin Suo, "Old Qin, what's going on here?" Qin Suo replied blankly, "Death." The sixth grinned, bared his teeth, and waved the gun in his hand: "If Uncle Yan asks you something, just answer it, don't fucking pretend." Presumably the sixth son was robbed of the gun by Qin, and he felt resentful in his heart.He looked at Uncle Yan flatteringly, as if his words and deeds were atonement.Uncle Yan gave him a cold look, and the sixth child froze for a moment, then lowered his head embarrassingly. Qin Suo smiled slightly: "Since you insist on coming in, then accept everything." He just kept silent, no matter how much Geng Zi or Lao Liu cursed, he refused to speak again.In desperation, Gengzi turned to Zhu Liang, trying to dig out some information from him.The light shone on Zhu Liang, but he saw that his teeth were clenched tightly, his eyes were closed, and his whole body was swaying non-stop as if electrified.Gengzi walked up to him and shook him, then stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, turned to Uncle Yan and said, "He has a fever, his forehead is burning hot, and his body is very cold... ouch!" The scream of "嗤" came so suddenly that we were all taken aback. Chen Wei even took a few steps back and hid behind Dou Miao. Gengzi's emergency light fell to the ground, and the light didn't turn off, but Gengzi's figure was stretched by the light, and he jumped up and down and cursed loudly: "The son of a bitch bit me!" Lao Liu and Tudou hurriedly stepped forward and knocked Zhu Liang down, and picked up the emergency light to check the injury of Gengzi.There was a deep semicircular tooth mark on Gengzi's left hand, and blood dripped down on the rocky ground.Gengzi jumped into a rage, and rushed towards Zhu Liang who was lying on the ground, and the sixth child hugged him by the waist. "Brother Geng, let me bandage you up." When I saw the wound on Gengzi's hand, my heart suddenly moved and my breathing became short of breath.Uncle Yan is not panicked by the accident, he is very similar to Professor Tan in this respect, he always has a calm and strong aura.The only difference is that maybe Uncle Yan is always suppressing some of his emotions, which will occasionally erupt. Uncle Yan stood where he was and looked up at Qin Suo.Qin Suo stood there expressionless, his face looked extremely pale in the corner of the light. In a panic, Xiaofei raised the lamp, and Lao Liu took out the gauze from the bag, and wrapped it around his hands indiscriminately.This bite was obviously not light, and the muscles on the face of Gengzi were tense, and he looked fiercely at Zhu Liang who was lying on the ground. At this moment, Old Wei suddenly called out: "There's light over there!" He snatched the emergency light from Xiaofei's hand, held it up high to shine into the distance, and couldn't restrain the excitement in his voice, "Did you see it? Light!" We all looked in the direction indicated by the light. Old Wei turned off the emergency light and said loudly, "That's over there!" Sure enough, after the lights were turned off, an extremely hidden glimmer of light could be vaguely seen in the darkness, which seemed to be hidden at the corner of the distant rock wall. Old Wei put down the emergency light, took out the flashlight, and walked forward quickly: "Li Wenchang and I went over to have a look, you are waiting for us here." Uncle Yan didn't give any instructions, his gaze has been gazing at the tiny light that gave us infinite hope.When we were all jumping and excited, Uncle Yan still stood there quietly. Old Wei and Old Li trotted towards the dim light, one in front of the other.I looked back at Professor Tan, who looked at the two small figures behind the flashlight with concern.When I looked at Qin Suo again, I found that he raised his face and sighed slightly. Lao Wei is a farm boy.When we ate together, we always heard him describe vividly how he caught cicadas and grasshoppers when he was a child, and how delicious they were when they were roasted.The children who grew up in the city looked at him with great envy, and listened to him bragging about the poetic wheat waves with shining eyes, the interesting stories of those barefooted rivers touching crabs and crayfish, catching fish with nets, and his helpers. Ah Fu went to steal the glorious record of watermelon. Ah Fu is a Chinese pastoral dog, and his status in Lao Wei's heart is similar to that of a roaring dog. He is the old man in the family, with an older brother and two older sisters.After the death of his father in junior high school, his elder brothers and sisters fully supported him in his studies, because his grades were the most promising among the children in the family.I heard that before the college entrance examination, he almost gave up the college entrance examination because of poverty, but was caught and beaten by the head of his village. The little boy who used to run in the waves of wheat has now become a high-profile academic star in S University.Those hands that once held a hoe and a sickle, although covered with calluses, were carved with beautiful seals. At this moment, Old Wei was holding the flashlight, looking at the faint light in the distance and running forward persistently.What that cluster of twilights meant to him—whether it was the hope of seeing the ground or the new archaeological discoveries was unknown. He rushed there wholeheartedly, like a boy in the field rushing to the sun. Professor Tan took a step forward, and shouted with concern: "Slow down, wait for us to pass together!" Li Dazui turned back and waved his hands, "It's okay, you take care of the sick and wounded, and Lao Wei and I will explore the way!" He seemed to have a premonition of seeing the answer to the end point, and he turned to look for Old Wei full of excitement and apprehension. After turning around, he stopped in place and was stunned. From my point of view, the light in the team just about reached Li Dazui, and further on, there was a blur of darkness.I vaguely saw Wei's flashlight draw an arc in the air, and then disappeared, together with his people. I turned on the flashlight and ran to Lao Li's side.He was still there in a daze, I shook him, he seemed to be sleepwalking, his whole body rising and falling with his breathing. His fingers slowly raised, silently pointing forward. Professor Tan, Uncle Yan and the members of the archaeological team who came running with me were all stunned. The beams of flashlights were intertwined and all shone forward not far away. An abyss about ten meters wide lay in front of us, blocking us from the rocky land opposite. When we walk underground, although we have encountered faults, most of them are not more than two meters, and the ground is connected.At this moment, I suddenly saw this unfathomable big fissure. I was horrified, and my heart beat wildly. I lay on the ground, crawled a few steps forward, climbed to the edge of the crack, tremblingly raised the flashlight to look for the trace of Old Wei.There is a glimmer of hope in my heart that the rift is not as far-reaching as we think. At this moment, I suddenly felt that those things in my life that I once valued and those things that people could not let go of were so ridiculous.Compared with the wish that Lao Wei is still alive at this moment, all those things are so small. When looking down the light of the flashlight, the light cannot see the bottom.The abyss is deeper than I imagined.My hand trembled subconsciously, and the flashlight fell from my hand, like a feather blown by the evening wind, gliding frivolously through the darkness and falling down, until I couldn't see it, and couldn't even hear the sound of it landing. The sixth emergency light followed.Looking back, Li Wenchang was standing a few steps away from me, his face was gray and stiff.Professor Tan hurried past him, knelt down beside me and looked into the abyss.The people who rushed over shouted one after another—"Wei Qifang!" "Old Wei!" "Dr. Wei!" no answer.There was silence in the abyss. Professor Tan snatched the emergency light from Lao Liu's hand, lay down next to me and shone it down.Where the emergency lights sweep, you can see the dark rock walls, all kinds of strange faces.They have been asleep for a long time, and it seems that the light cannot wake them up. "Professor Tan, there!" Dou Miao cried out, pointing his finger at the rock wall below us: "Did you see it, it seems to be Old Wei!" Professor Tan's light quickly swept towards the direction Dou Miao pointed, I could even hear the sound of my heartbeat, and my eyes frantically searched for the place where the light arrived.On those huge dark rock walls, I finally saw a small figure hanging on it.Old Wei's hands were firmly digging at the protrusions of the rock wall, as if all his energy was spent on his arms, struggling between life and death. For a while, everyone was excited and shouted. "Old Wei, hold on, we'll find a solution right away!" "Wei Qifang, can you hear me?" "Big head, don't talk, hold on!" I yelled the last sentence.I was afraid that Old Wei would be discouraged if he spoke, and his spare energy would not be enough to support us to carry out the rescue.Facts have proved that my worries were unnecessary. Old Wei has been lying on the rock without saying a word, with his teeth clenched. Uncle Yan and Gengzi beside him have already taken action.They quickly installed expansion screws on the rock wall above where Wei was, and made a safe point.When Gengzi was about to put on the seat belt, Li Dazui reached out to take the seat belt, and said in a low and fast voice, "I'll do it!" Gengzi pushed him away: "You can't." Old Li's face was ashen, like the darkness before the storm: "Give it to me! I don't trust you!" A pair of thin but strong hands separated the two of them, and Uncle Yan succinctly and unquestionably ended their dispute. "No time, I'll come." Uncle Yan put the protective belt on his body, checked the connection between the horoscope ring and the quick hanger, nodded to Li Dazui and Gengzi, and began to descend. We watched with horror as Uncle Yan approached Old Wei cautiously.He gradually touched Old Wei along the rock wall, stepped on the rock wall with the help of the rope, and stretched out his hand to put the safety belt on Old Wei.Everyone watched Uncle Yan's movements with bated breath, not daring to make the slightest sound.Faintly heard Uncle Yan say to Old Wei in a muffled voice: "Okay, don't move, I'll connect you with a rope." I saw Uncle Yan stretch out his hand, ready to fasten the lock of the rope to the safety belt around Old Wei's waist.Just when his hand was about to touch Old Wei's waist, Old Wei snorted.He finally reached the limit of his physical strength, his hands could no longer support him, and he fell from the rock wall. Time has passed, and I can no longer remember how I felt at that time.Old Wei's hands brushed against the rough rock wall, but his fall was unstoppable.I vaguely remember hearing Li Dazui's roar, and Dou Miao tightly hugging him. Suddenly, Uncle Yan kicked his feet on the rock wall and jumped down.Using his speed, he caught up with Old Wei and hugged him by the waist.The safety rope made a flustering sound of friction on the rock wall, and Uncle Yan and Old Wei slammed into the rock wall hard.After several hits in a row, Uncle Yan finally stabilized his body and hung the rope on Old Wei. "not good!" When we just breathed a sigh of relief, before we had time to recover, Li Dazui rushed to the safe point and stretched out his hand to hold the rope.Looking back, I found that the expansion screws seemed to be unable to withstand the shock just now, and the hanging ropes were crumbling.Old Li held on to the rope firmly, and shouted back, "Everyone, come and pull the rope." The change in this moment made everyone a little dull. Lao Li was pulled by the rope and staggered a few steps. He leaned back and got close to the ground, kicking his feet firmly on the ground. He turned around and roared again: "Pull!" Gengzi, Dou Miao and others came to their senses and rushed over to grab the rope. When I got up from the ground, there was no place around the rope.I saw that Lao Li's hand was deeply stuck in the rope, bleeding out from grinding.I grabbed his arm, trying to support him, but Lao Li struggled to pull him and said, "Go ahead, don't make any trouble!" The crowd finally hurriedly pulled Uncle Yan and Old Wei up, and they slumped on the ground in shock.Lao Li and I rushed towards Lao Wei.Old Wei's appearance was horrible, his face was scratched a few times, his nose was bleeding, and the most serious thing was his fingers, with several nails peeled off. I wiped the blood for him in a panic, my upper and lower teeth were chattering all the time, making weird creaking noises.Lao Li patted Lao Wei's big head and said in a trembling voice, "Brother, are you alright?" Old Wei gasped for a while, and said in a low voice, "It's fine. I..." Lao Li sat down on the ground, kicked Lao Wei's leg lightly with his foot, and gasped for a few times: "The scourge has lived for thousands of years, so I knew you were immortal." Old Wei turned his face sideways, looked at me first, then searched the crowd with his eyes, and found Professor Tan squatting beside him. "Professor Tan, I, I saw it below..." Professor Tan gently picked up his hand, wiped it gently with gauze, and whispered: "Stop talking, rest first." Her voice was choked with sobs at first, but after a few seconds, she controlled herself and regained her former composure. On the other side, Gengzi and others surrounding Uncle Yan were also busy wiping Uncle Yan's blood with gauze.He had severe bruises on his hands and arms, and he was lying on the ground without making a sound.Seeing that Old Wei was fine, I quickly picked up the emergency light and shone on Uncle Yan, hoping to do a little favor for Gengzi and others who stopped his bleeding. In any case, it was Uncle Yan who saved Wei, and I am deeply grateful to him.It is an unspeakable emotion to mix the hatred and loathing of the past with the gratitude of the present.When Old Wei fell, Uncle Yan could jump down without risking his life.This kind of rescue without hesitation made me look at Uncle Yan differently. "Uncle Yan is in a coma." Gengzi said softly. "He's hurt his head. Look, he's bleeding." When our eyes were all focused on Uncle Yan's bloody arm, the careful Dou Miao discovered the reason for Uncle Yan's coma.The light moved to Uncle Yan's head, and I saw that Uncle Yan's mask was gradually soaked in blood, and the mask stuck to his face, rising and falling with his rapid breathing. The always vicious Gengzi panicked. He raised his head and actually asked Professor Tan, "Tan...Professor Tan, what should I do?" Professor Tan leaned over to inspect it, and said decisively: "Take off Lao Yan's mask, and stop the bleeding first." Gengzi stretched out his hand in confusion, trembling in the air and then stopped, he whispered, "Yan, Uncle Yan won't allow it." Professor Tan said coldly: "He is bleeding profusely now, are you more worried that he will die or that he will punish you for taking off the mask?" Gengzi's shoulders moved up and down with his breath, obviously engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.Not allowing him to take the long exam, Yu Yanyanqi stretched out her long white fingers, pinched a corner of Uncle Yan's mask and slowly lifted it off. "If you don't stop, what's the point?" Yu Yanyan's voice was full of contempt. The strange thing is that Gengzi didn't fight back against Yanyan's blatant contempt, he just looked at Uncle Yan's face fixedly.Yu Yanyan's eyes turned from Gengzi's body to Uncle Yan's face beside her, and she froze for a moment. Professor Tan was also stunned. Everyone was silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Uncle Yan's face.The huge shock made everyone stand still in place, only Chen Wei let out an "ah" and staggered back a few steps. I took a look at Uncle Yan, only to feel dry mouth and terrified.
