Chapter 15 Maya Maze

This is the most magnificent and luxurious underground palace I have ever seen, and it is also the most terrifying and bloody.

Its mechanisms are so complex and the traps are so terrible. It is full of mystery and unknown everywhere. Every step is possible to lose your life.

And the religious rituals and sacrificial ceremonies of this civilization are completely unacceptable to me. I can't believe how could a person with such a highly civilized person commit those devils' crimes...

Professor Fang Xin shouted a few times at the entrance of the cave, but he could not hear the echo. He said anxiously: "Johnbara is too reckless, still so impulsive, and has no quality of scientific investigation."

Master Yara leaned his head into the cave and said, "He is not just taking risks, there is wind inside."

Wind means there are other entrances and exits in the cave. Ventilation can blow away the miasma and keep the air flowing below.

This was learned by Zhuomu Qiangba from the Kekexili Science Expedition Team, and judging from the speed of his backpack sliding, the slope of the cave slope would not exceed forty-five degrees, so he jumped without hesitation.

But he did not expect that his gliding speed was much higher than his backpack, and the caves were neatly square passages, and the slope of the passage was covered with fine dust like gravel, like lubricant, which promoted the gliding speed.

In less than ten seconds, with a "bang", Zhuo Muqiangba felt his body hanging in the air, and his head hit the stone wall heavily, and continued to slide in the opposite direction with his entire body; in less than ten seconds, his back had already leaned against the side wall, and he bumped heavily, and changed direction.

I don’t know how many times I bumped into this, but later Zhuo Muqiangba pushed his backpack with his feet and advanced together.

Finally, Zhuo Muqiangba felt his voice change, and he fell from mid-air. First, the sound of his backpack entering the water, and then he fell into the water. He reached out to grab it in panic, but as soon as he raised his legs, he stood up from the water.

The water in the pool was not deep. Zhuo Muqiangba just had a head exposed when he stood up. He dripped a few steps and needed to swim in the deepest part. He grabbed his backpack while swimming, and soon felt like he was stepping on the ground again.

Hearing the "shush" sound in the dark, it seemed that something was retreating. Zhuo Muqiangba was overjoyed and said, "Minmin! Is it you?

You answer me?"

He didn't hear the answer, but heard a "wow" crying. Zhuo Muqiangba hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, where are you?"

As he said that, he walked towards the crying place.

A sob sound came from the darkness: "Suck——, suck, suck, I'm so scared, woo… I'm so scared… I thought I'd never see you again, wow——” Zhuo Muqiangba carried his backpack and left the pool. He stretched out his hands to grop in the sound, and finally held a pair of soft and cold hands, and in the darkness, the two hugged each other tightly.

Zhuo Muqiangba comforted in a low voice: "Stop crying, stop crying, I'm here.

It's okay, I'm here."

Tang Min pressed his head against Zhuo Muqiangba’s chest with his shoulders shaking, crying sadly, and said intermittently: “In the city… wu… I heard your voice, I called your name… wu… wu… Did you hear me calling you?

I... suck... rush towards you... hum... as a result... it fell in immediately. Wow... there is no road here, and I can't see anything, wow..."

Zhuo Muqiangba could only continue to comfort her: "Okay, it won't look good if she cries.

I brought your backpack, is there a lighting device inside?

There is nothing that is black here."

"have."

Tang Min stopped crying, sobbed softly, took her backpack and groped.

After a while, the lights lit up. Zhuo Muqiangba only saw Tang Min's face, which had been wiped like an impressionist oil painting by a pair of mud hands. Her eyes were crying red, and tears were still pouring out, and the traces of the face were washed away. She cried so hard that the pear blossoms were raining and the roses were dewed.

He was both angry and funny, smiling.

Tang Min calmed down her crying, looked at Zhuo Muqiangba blankly, and then asked, "Isn't it ugly?"

Zhuo Mu Qiangba nodded, and she cried again with a "wow".

Zhuo Muqiangba held up her little face lovingly and said with a smile: "Okay, go and wash it.

You weren't injured, are you?"

He touched the wall many times himself, and now he hurts from head to toe.

Outside the Holy Well, Master Yara said, "The guerrillas have come down again, and it seems that the cannibals have the upper hand.

We can't escape here, maybe we can find another way to live."

Professor Fang Xin stared at Master Yara with his eyes and said in horror: "You don't want to...you have to think clearly about the master."

Master Yara said in one's ten words: "The living Buddha will point us the direction."

As he said that, he slid into the hole in a cross-legged position.

Professor Fang Xin opened his mouth wide and looked at the crazy man, then looked at the gunman who was shouting at him, finally sighed, threw his backpack into the hole, and then fell into it.

Tang Min said she would not wash her face, saying that the water in the holy well was soaked in death.

Zhuo Muqiangba persuaded her and told her that the pool water was living water, which was connected to the groundwater, and shone light on the pool water that allowed her to see the clear and visible bottom. Tang Min reluctantly went to wash her face.

Zhuo Muqiangba looked left and right with the light source. He had never seen such things before. This light source was a hat, but it was not like the searchlight hat worn by a miner. This light was a straight pillar on the top of the hat, as if a candle was pushed on the top of the head.

Tang Min said: "This is a candle hat, which is specially used by archaeological expedition workers.

Because in an unknown environment, the searchlight can only shine in one direction, and there will be many visual blind spots. In order to eliminate the places where light cannot shine, this kind of hat with a light bulb on the top of the head can be shined at 360 degrees.

But the light source is scattered and cannot be far away, so it is better to use the searchlight and candle cap together."

Zhuomu Qiangba raised his candle hat and said, "Let's see if there are other passages here first."

Suddenly, two "plops" sounds were frightened, and Tang Min was so scared that he hugged Zhuo Muqiangba.

Zhuo Muqiangba said: "Don't be afraid, Professor Fang Xin has come down, and Master Yara."

Because of the light, Professor Fang Xin and Master Yara did not have the panic of Zhuo Mu Qiangba in the water.

The two of them came ashore, and Master Yara looked at the cave and said, "This holy well is different from other things."

Professor Fang Xin said angrily: "Now, we are together.

So, can anyone tell me how to get out from here?"

This space is very small, only the size of a basketball court, two-thirds of the left is water, and a little higher on the right, revealing one-third of the open space.

There are earth walls all around. The hole they fell down is in the middle of the earth wall. There is also the same hole on the wall opposite it. The top of the head seems to be a natural stone wall, three or four meters high from the ground. Apart from that, there is nothing left.

Faced with such a situation, Zhuo Muqiangba was at a loss and could only laugh awkwardly, trying not to anger his mentor.

Master Yara asked Zhuomu Qiangba, "How many twists did you go through when you fell?"

Zhuo Muqiangba was stunned. He was bumpy just now and fell to a lot of trouble. Who would remember that he had gone through several twists?

I only heard Professor Fang Xin say: "Eighteen turning points are the same as we imagined."

Master Yara nodded and said, "It seems that we are at the bottom of the Mayan pyramid."

Tang Min murmured: "Eighteen turning points."

She seemed to know something.

Zhuo Muqiangba didn't understand at all and asked, "What are the eighteen turning points?"

Why is it the same as you imagined?

tutor?"

Professor Fang Xin said "hey": "Don't shout so intimately, you are committing a taboo in the inspection project."

Master Yara explained: "This huge pyramid is several hundred meters high on the ground, which is the tallest building we have ever seen, and there are probably hundreds of meters below the foundation.

The Mayans may have built this pyramid palace according to their understanding of hell."

"Eighteen Hell!"

Zhuo Mu Qiangba glared.

Tang Min said: "No, the Mayan hell is the nine levels.

Eighteen is a multiple of nine, and there is a layer of hell in the middle of every two turns, so we are now under hell.”

Master Yara nodded and said, "Well, the slope was steep and long at the last turn, and we should be at the bottom of the pyramid.

If it were here, I'm afraid there would be no way out."

Professor Fang Xin hummed heavily.

Zhuo Muqiangba said: "Look for it, maybe there is another way out."

As he said that, he and Tang Min slowly searched along the stone wall.

Master Yara and Professor Fang Xin were not moved. They sat by the pool. Master Yara said, "There is something very strange here.

If it was a Holy Well, even if there was no human bone underneath, there should be sacrifices. But just now, I saw nothing but the dead bones of wild beasts."

Professor Fang Xin agreed: "Well, it's OK, there seems to be only one possibility for this situation."

He looked at Master Yara, unless the holy well was not used once after it was completed, the people in the city gave up on the city for some reason.

"ah!"

Tang Min's exclamation came at that moment, and it seemed loud and loud in this closed space.

Professor Fang Xin and Master Yara hurried forward. Together with Zhuo Muqiangba, they found a skeleton leaning against a man-made hollow cave on the edge of the earth wall.

Tang Min didn't know where he encountered it, so he smashed the stone slabs that closed the cave.

Zhuo Muqiangba walked up to check, but was pulled by Professor Fang Xin.

Professor Fang Xin said: "Don't get close, there seems to be something on this stone slab."
