But of course we didn't get any response.
The passage was still quiet, with almost no sound echoing.
But this isn't quite right.
If the person who came was Cui Hao or Wang Wangyang, they would never make such a joke to us.
In addition, when I turned my head just now, I clearly saw a figure standing in the darkness. It's a pity that I didn't catch up.
So maybe there really aren't just a few of us down here.
I continued to observe the ground carefully.
Suddenly I discovered an unusual place, where a lot of dust had been worn away.
But I can clearly see that there seems to be half a palm print on the edge.
"Someone was pressing me down on the ground, and the size of the hand looked twice as small as mine. It looked more like a girl's hand, or a child's."
Thinking of this, I stared at the half of the palm print carefully, and accidentally glanced at the wall.
But suddenly, I found that there seemed to be some unclear marks on the wall, which were also the prints of a palm.
"Strange, the height of this palm print is too high, right?"
According to the size of this hand, the person opposite should be a girl or child. I estimate that their height may be only 1.56 meters or less.
But the traces of this palm actually appeared more than two meters above the ground. This location was really too abnormal.
I took a breath and couldn't help but look up.
Under the illumination of the flashlight, I suddenly discovered that the tops of our heads were densely covered with fingerprints.
These handprints overlapped one after another and covered the entire ceiling.
Seeing me raising my head, Zhang Xu followed my gaze and looked upward curiously.
But after seeing the scenery above our heads clearly, he opened his eyes wide in fear.
"Oh my God, what the hell is up here?"
I shook my head and told him to be silent.
"We pretended not to notice, and we continued to walk forward slowly. I said there is no road here, how could that figure suddenly disappear? He might have been hiding above our heads, quietly watching the two of us below. Searching like a headless fly."
You must know that the top of the head is the highest place. If the two of us are unprepared, this guy will jump down from mid-air and attack us.
Then the two of us are like lambs to be slaughtered, we can only passively wait to be attacked.
Even if this guy has the intention to kill us, we may not even have time to react, and we will be wiped off our necks by this guy.
Now that the enemy is hidden and we are clear, the best way is to keep quiet and find a way to figure out what this guy is.
Then make further plans.
After listening to my words, Zhang Xu nodded and walked forward quietly behind me.
The two of us were always holding on to the rope around our waists, for fear that something unexpected would happen and we would get separated.
I was able to take out my Bagua mirror and point it at the ceiling.
The Bagua mirror is relatively clear, and I can clearly see every corner on the ceiling.
The handprints on it are so densely packed that it makes people feel chills in their backs.
Mainly, I am not sure whether there is one person here or many people, whether this person is alive or dead.
It's easier to deal with if it's a living person, but if this guy is really a dead person, then we have to pretend not to see it and think about it in the long run.
at this time.
I suddenly heard rustling sounds coming from the direction in front of me, and heard footsteps again.
Only this time, the footsteps did not follow us, but seemed to guide us forward.
The footsteps gradually moved away from the front.
Zhang Xu took a nervous breath and looked at me uneasily.
"Are we going to chase him?"
I nodded, grabbed him and started to rush forward.
Along the way, my eyes never left my Bagua Mirror.
Always staring at the ceiling, for fear of missing any clues and information.
At this time, the passage ahead gradually opened up.
Unfortunately, as the two of us ran, the owner of the footsteps in front seemed to hear our voices.
His speed also suddenly began to increase, and his steps became hasty.
The two of us chased closely behind him, constantly increasing our speed, but we never caught up with this guy.
"Keep walking, don't stop."
Suddenly behind us, we heard footsteps again.
This time it was two footsteps. One leads the way, and the other seems to be following us from behind.
Zhang Xu didn't dare to breathe, and his expression was tense, as if he was about to collapse to the ground. His legs kept shaking. If I hadn't been holding him up, he might have collapsed on the ground from fear.
"What's going on? Isn't that footsteps in front? Could it be that there is more than one person here?"
It’s hard to say.
The point is that I just saw a faint light above my head.
But when I looked at the Bagua Mirror carefully, the light disappeared again.
It's like something is hidden.
"Strange, what's going on?"
Along the way, I always had the feeling that something was staring at me closely.
And this gaze seems to be coming from above the head.
But along the way, I kept holding the Bagua mirror, pointing it at the top of my head, but I never found any shadows on the ceiling.
"Is there anyone up here or not?"
I couldn't figure it out, but Zhang Xu suddenly quickened his pace and led me to run forward.
"The footsteps behind me are getting closer and closer. Walk quickly, walk quickly. I feel there may be danger."
But before we could take a few steps, we both tripped because of a stone on the ground.
At this time, the footsteps were just a few meters behind us, almost close at hand.
Turn your head immediately and look behind you quickly.
The footsteps were still approaching, but when I looked behind us, I couldn't see anyone.
"What exactly is going on?"
Zhang Xu kept walking backwards with his hands on the ground, but the footsteps of this invisible figure gradually approached us.
"what to do?"
After thinking about it, I took out the amulet I had brought with me before and threw one to Zhang Xu.
"Take it, here you go. If there is any danger later, or something rushes towards us, you don't have to worry about me running away immediately."
After saying that, I cut the rope around our waists directly.
Zhang Xu was almost so nervous that he couldn't breathe.
Seeing me cut off the rope, he shivered even more.
"Let me run by myself, but how can I get out?"
I shook my head and pointed to the passage ahead.
"I'm going over there. Regardless of whether that guy is invisible or for some other reason, I'm going to drive this guy away for you, and you can take the opportunity to find another direction to escape."
After saying that, I rushed directly in the direction of the footsteps.
No matter what today, I must find out what kind of ghost this secretly scary guy is.
But the moment I rushed towards the sound.
This time the sound and footsteps stopped again.
There was silence all around, as if everything I just heard was my tinnitus and hallucination.
Zhang Xu approached me fearfully, grabbed my arm, and looked around nervously.
"How could this happen? What on earth is going on?"
I looked at the ceiling again and carefully observed the handprints on it.
I found that this handprint was exactly the same as before, and it had not changed in size. However, vaguely, I seemed to see that there was something wrong with this handprint.
Before the weird sound could be heard, I winked at Zhang Xu.
"In this way, I see that the surrounding stone walls are not too strong. I want to climb up to see the situation."
I pointed to the tens of thousands of handprints above my head.
"This must be the key to the problem. As long as we figure this out, there may be a way to escape."
Zhang Xu opened his eyes wide in horror and shook his head vigorously.
"No, if you really go up there, if you encounter danger, I won't even have room to save you."
I handed him the rope of the ring in my hand and pointed to the wall.
"I'll drive a nail into it later, hook it with an iron ring, and wrap the rope around the iron ring."
I pointed to the other side of the rope.
"When the time comes, you can hold one end of the rope, and tie the other end around my waist. If I really encounter any danger, I can jump directly from the top. I can just use this ring and that rope Nail, this rope can hold me and prevent me from falling. My life and death are all in your hands."
After listening to my words, Zhang Xu immediately nodded solemnly.
"No problem, I will definitely handle this for you."
I didn't say much and quickly raised my head to look at the top.
Then I immediately took out a nail and knocked it directly against a wall that already had a crack.
With a bang, the nails were driven directly into the cracks.
I immediately followed the same example and continued to hammer nails into the wall using the same method.
I positioned two rows of nails to make it easier for me to step on and climb up.
Then I climbed to the top with the help of nails little by little, and then I took out the last nail and nailed it to the top of my head.
After nailing it, I bent the handle of the nail and hung the rope directly without finding the iron ring.
I threw the other end of the rope to Zhang Xu below.
"Remember, if I am in any danger, you must catch me immediately."
After saying that, I grabbed the nails and carefully observed the traces of every nail on the top.
But just as I was observing the mark of the nail, I suddenly felt a chill behind me.
That feeling of being spied on came back again.
I immediately turned around and glanced behind me. The top of Shibi behind me was still empty, with no figure as I imagined.
"Strange, could it be that I feel wrong?"
I vaguely began to wonder if everything was an illusion.
But I could only suppress my uneasiness and continue to search the wall carefully, trying to find the mechanism set up on the dome.
