Chapter 9 Section 8 Broken Rope

When the boy said that every time he saw the wolf king, he was near the tomb of King Wusun, Chu Feng's heart skipped a beat.He looked up at the mountainside he was in. This is obviously not a natural cave, and traces of artificial excavation can be seen everywhere. The young man is also smart. Seeing Chu Feng looking at the place carefully, he immediately opened his mouth and said, "Look at the size of this cave! Let me tell you quietly, don't tell it!" He said with a mysterious expression on his face He came up to Chu Feng and bit his ear. "Okay, okay, don't say it, let me guess!" Chu Feng was in a rare mood, and he stopped the young man from getting too close to him, "This should be the air-raid shelter that your grandfather dug half a century ago Bar!"

"Ah, how do you know?!" The young man clearly doubted the origin of this cave when he saw Chu Feng before, but now he explained it clearly, a little dumbfounded. "There are obvious traces of shoveling soil here. If it is a recent event, more modern tools should be used; if it is ancient, it will not be ancient, and it is not so old. I think these soil layers should be half About a century. At that time, there happened to be a famous Zhenbao Island incident. Everyone in this area thought that the Soviets would attack, so they dug a lot of caves, hid food and weapons, and prepared to hide in once the war broke out. Isn’t it?” After all, Chu Feng was a frontier guard in Xinjiang, so he is very familiar with this period of history.

"What on earth do you do? I think you are amazing." The boy looked at him in disbelief. "Why, did your adults say that too?" "That's right, my Ama said that in this mountain back then, the sides of several mountains were hollowed out." The young man was immersed in the memory of "father telling stories".Chu Feng's face changed drastically, this is Tianshan Mountain, hollowing out the mountain's belly is really a big deal.It is also thanks to the spiritual beliefs of people in that era, and they worked hard to do things. If it is left at present, it must be a major national project!But they did it quietly back then.Alas, that was really an era that modern people admired but could not understand.

Chu Feng chatted casually with the young Xilin like this, and he talked about everything except his illness.When he knew that he was an expert in paleographs, Xilin almost didn't jump up: "You, are you really an expert in paleographies?" "Yeah! What's the matter?" Chu Feng felt that his excitement was groundless. "That's really great!" The young Xilin was overjoyed, scratching his head and unable to sit still.He quickly told Chu Feng that there was a cliff on the south side of the mountain, and there was a kind of writing all over the cliff, a very strange writing, which he had never seen before.And the big golden eagle was rescued there by him back then, and it was also the home of the big golden eagle.In fact, ever since he became friends with the big golden eagle, there was not a day when the boy didn't want to take the big golden eagle back to his home.

He really wants to get along with his friends day and night, instead of seeing him only a few times a year like now.However, no matter how much he coaxed him, the big golden eagle just refused to go back with him.Every time he was sent out of the mountain, the big golden eagle Erden would immediately fly back to that cliff.Xilin felt that the writing on the cliff was strange, and he suspected that some shaman cast a spell on the golden eagle, preventing it from leaving there for a long time. "Then you should go to a wizard or a shaman, what are you going to do with a paleographer?" Chu Feng asked amusedly.

"I don't want to make sure. The characters on the cliff are either ancient characters or spells. If... If you, a paleographer, don't know it, then it must be spells. You can go to the shaman Is it?" The boy said, feeling embarrassed himself, his voice gradually lowered. Chu Feng thought about it, and wanted to go and see it too.One is that he has committed an occupational disease, and the other is that he has no purpose now. Anyway, he will be buried wherever he dies. He is homeless and tired, but he is at ease.Even though he thought so, his heart twitched, and a look of desolation and death unconsciously appeared on his face.

When the young man saw him, he was a little muttering in his heart. A paleographer appeared in the deep mountains out of nowhere, and he had the skills to fight "Wusun King" for several rounds.Such a person seems to be in an unspeakable pain. Could it be that this man who looks like an uncle has lost his love? Don't blame other people's children, they all said that "teenagers don't know how to feel sad". At his age, losing a love is a difficult hurdle to pass.Undoubtedly, the young man stood up, patted Chu Feng on the shoulder pretending to be mature, and said a few comforting words like "There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, don't fall in love with a single grass", which made Chu Feng dumbfounded.

It was said that Ling Ning was slowly crawling into the hole with tens of turns of rope wrapped around his body.Because the angle and orientation calculated by Tang Mei were used for excavation, and it was inclined downward, so she could not be put down, but had to climb up bit by bit by herself. Ling Ning's courage has been greatly tempered.She didn't want to go at first, not because of fear, but because of her instinctive aversion to that guy named Tang Mo.For some reason, she felt that that guy had no good intentions. Later Sangbu persuaded her.Sangbu can be said to be a very masculine person. If he hadn't had to do so, I believe he would not let himself take risks alone as a girl.Ling Ning has been giving up on herself since Chu Feng disappeared. She suddenly felt that everything in this world didn't matter to her, and she couldn't get excited about doing anything.This time when Sang Bu told her about Chu Feng, she immediately felt alive again.And when she faced the dark hole, what came to her heart was not fear, but excitement and excitement.She could hear the joy and cheers of every cell in her body, and her blood was boiling.This is the first time since Chu Feng's disappearance that she has expressed such urgency and concern for one thing - it seems that she is born to do this job.

Ling Ning didn't hesitate any longer, turned on the lighting equipment, and crawled backwards with a "chuo bao bao".Even though he had already verified that the oxygen concentration below was not dangerous, Sangbu still asked Ling Ning to face down when going down. Except for the forklift driver who was in the cab, everyone else was nervous around the hole.No matter how strong Ling Ning is, she is still just a girl.Wang Cong and William were the most opposed to her going down, but they both tried to go down the cave, but they couldn't go down.Only then did he reluctantly accept Sangbu's opinion.

Half an hour passed, and the rope connecting Ling Ning's waist and the outside of the cave did not move.Sangbu's face became more tense, he glanced at Tang Mo from time to time, seeing that the boy was still calm, he had no choice but to suppress his emotions. An hour later, there was still no pre-arranged signal from the rope.Worried about Ling Ning's problems, William suggested to Sangbu: "Team Sang, pull her up! It's been an hour, don't let anything happen." "No!" Tang Mei stopped immediately, "You heard it just now, Ms. Ling herself said that if she wants to come up, she will yank the rope three times, but now, there is no such movement on the rope."

After hearing this, William frowned, saw Sambu staring at the hole without blinking, and swallowed the words when he reached his mouth. Everyone suppressed their restlessness and worry, and waited for another half an hour, but there was still no news.Sang Bu's face began to look ugly. He walked up to Tang Mei and asked in a low voice: "Do you have a score, boy? If something goes wrong with that girl, I will never forgive you!" "Don't worry, Team Sang, as I said, she will definitely come out in an hour. Look, isn't it still half an hour away?!" Tang Mo was not in a hurry. "Remember, it was you who said that this mound tomb is a tomb of Kun, and a woman must enter it. I am shameless and let a girl go in alone to explore. If something happens to her, I will have no shame to see her family and me That brother is gone, I will kill you first!" Sangbu added viciously before turning back to stare at the hole intently.But Tang Mei only had a flash of light in his eyes, and he was still smiling, as if the person who was threatened just now was not him at all. Time passed by, and although there was a space underground, it was not ventilated, and the oxygen content in it could not support a person's activities in it for a long time.Two hours, that is, one hour that Tang Mei said is almost the limit for maintaining normal activities. If this time limit is exceeded, people will be unconscious in it.Therefore, everyone is very nervous at this time. Speaking of this, including Feng Xiang, all archaeological team members did not understand Sangbu's decision.Because generally speaking, according to the usual practice, for such an underground tomb inspection, the ventilation holes must be drilled in advance, just like the inspection of the Loulan King's Tomb in Shanshan.But this time Sangbu refused to say anything, which led to the current crisis. At this time, it was five minutes before the deadline for Ling Ning to go down for two hours, and the rope still didn't move at all.William couldn't bear it any longer. He rushed over and grabbed the rope with all his might. Sang Bu hurriedly stopped him: "What are you doing?" "What are you doing? I want to pull her up!" William's eyes turned red anxiously. He ignored Sang Bu's obstruction, grabbed the rope and wrapped it around his waist.In this way, even if he is the only one, he can still use his strength and pull Lingning to come up. "You're crazy!" Sangbu was so angry that his face was livid, and he was about to succeed, but he was about to be disturbed by this stunned young man. "You are crazy! Even if I am a layman, I know that archaeological excavations are not as good as yours! You are not even as good as a tomb robber, at least they don't want women to take risks!" William said to Sang Bu Yelling loudly. Wang Cong and Feng Xiang were behind Sangbu, and they were a little uncertain whether to stop William or help, but after hearing William's scolding, the two of them changed their expressions at the same time: as the main opponents of the tomb robbers, they knew each other's way very well Counting, just as the other party knows their own way very well.Right now, the two of them felt that something was wrong with what Captain Sangbu did, but they just didn’t react. Now that they heard William’s inadvertent scolding, the strings in their minds were tense——Sangbu What the captain is doing right now is not the way to rob the tomb? Sangbu blushed from being scolded by William. Fortunately, his face was dark and he couldn't see anything, but the iron rake and plow-like hand still held William's arm tightly and did not let go. No matter how hard William tried, he was only in a "tug of war" with him, and Yu Lingning was of no use at all. "What are you doing?" A crisp voice interrupted the stalemate between them. "Ling Ning, you're coming up!" As the party facing the entrance of the cave, William was the first to see the disheveled Ling Ning, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Sangbu looked back, no, who is that little girl whose face is covered with dirt and only has black and white eyes turning around clearly, but Ling Ning?She didn't ask the team members on the ground for help, but climbed up by her own strength. "Little girl, are you alright!" Sangbu was actually as worried as anyone else, and he was under greater psychological pressure but couldn't tell others. Therefore, seeing Ling Ning appearing safe and sound at this moment, he was really worried. is the happiest one. "It's okay! Team Sang, don't worry, I'm fine, nothing happened at all." Ling Ning smiled, revealing two rows of white and neat teeth. "Oh, look at you, why don't you let us pull you up, look, you have no strength!" Ling Ning also exhausted his last bit of strength when he climbed up, and his brain was starved of oxygen after being down for a long time. After one sentence, he softened.It was William who ran fast and helped her up, but couldn't help scolding her for not keeping the agreement. Ling Ning just smiled when she heard this. Fortunately, her leg was only temporarily out of strength, and she came out now, and the hypoxia in her brain was quickly relieved.With William's support, she obediently sat down on a large bluestone to rest.When she regained her strength, she beckoned Sangbu to approach alone, and slowly raised the end of a rope around her waist: "I want you to pull me up, but this rope won't let me!" Sangbu has been staring at her, seeing her lift up a piece of rope, his complexion changed, thinking of something, he quickly pulled the rope in his hand, and as soon as he exerted force, the rope was pulled up.Sure enough, the other end was broken. He dropped the rope in his hand, walked quickly to Ling Ning, picked up the end of the rope in Ling Ning's hand, and didn't speak for a while. "Team Sang, this rope has already been cut by nine points. As long as there is any friction or force after I go down, it will be completely broken immediately. This is intentional harm! Team Sang, I think, do you owe it to me?" Let me explain?" Ling Ning has been staring at Sangbu's face since he handed out the piece of rope, and saw that his face was full of emotions such as surprise, horror, anger, and self-blame, but he quickly calmed down, and his heart slightly sigh.I know in my heart that if I want to know the real answer now, I am afraid it will be difficult. Before Ling Ning went down, she was wearing a very thin jacket, and a section of the broken rope was wrapped around her waist, so at first no one noticed that her waist was bulging. After reaching the end of the rope, I realized that there was still something attached to the rope.
