The mouse smiled at us mysteriously, "We have asked about this mountain. It has no name, but there are many articles in it." After saying that, the mouse ran there. We only saw him getting into the grass, and then

The whole person disappeared. His shadow could not be found on the rock walls on both sides of Caolong and behind.

"Will that kid ambush us inside?" Lao Tan said.

Peanut seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly smiled again on his face. "It turns out it's in the mountains."

"What? You, you said that the steps up the mountain are inside the rock wall?" I absolutely don't believe this kind of thing. How high is this mountain? It's more than a thousand meters at least. There are steps from top to bottom in the mountain.

, that kind of project is absolutely huge. The most important thing is that it makes no sense to do this. People at the time would not have thought of it...

Before I could think about it, Peanut also walked over and got into the grass. Lao Tan and I looked at each other and finally followed him.

When I got into the grass and took a look, I was immediately dumbfounded.

"I...there really is a staircase." Old Tan said blankly.

Behind the grass is a cave recessed into the mountain, only five or six meters deep. However, on the left side of the cave, there is an upward step. The road is very narrow, only enough for one person to pass, and there are two steps at the top and both sides.

There are traces of manual polishing, and there are even many ventilation holes dug on the right side. Light and air are very circulated. Although it is within the mountain, there is no need for any lighting at all.

"This road is seven to eight hundred meters long. Although it is a bit steep, it is definitely better than walking on a mountain road. If you carry a backpack and stand up and lean back when you are tired, you will never fall."

The rat's voice entered the cave-like path of steps, and there was a vague echo. I stuck my head out and looked up, and found that the path was at least seventy degrees. If I looked carefully, I saw that there was a gap at both ends of the steps.

Smooth shallow pits go all the way up the steps. I feel that the shallow pits dug on both sides seem to be a bit superfluous. I can't think of the benefits of this design.

Peanut also touched the rocks in the shallow pit with his hands, and then looked up attentively, as if he had doubts.

At this time, the mouse urged us to go up quickly. So, we followed the previous order, letting the mouse take the lead, Peanut was behind to guard against him, and Lao Tan and I were behind.

When we first walked up the steps, except for the mouse, we were all cautious. After walking more than a hundred meters, I felt that there should be no danger on this road. As the mouse said, because the steps were in a very narrow hole, straighten your waist

It can almost knock your head off, so you only need to lean on both sides when taking a rest. And there is enough light around, which is even more reassuring.

"Hey, Lao Yuan, look, there are murals here." Lao Tan suddenly pulled me from behind and motioned for me to look above my head.

I looked up and immediately saw some mottled murals on the rocks at the top of the cave. The murals spread over our heads and spread to the front. They looked quite small. The main paintings on the murals were some figures holding hands.

The people holding sickles and hoes looked like they were chasing something.

It was the first time for Lao Tan and I to see these things with our own eyes, and we were very curious, so we raised our heads to look at them while walking up. This sight made Lao Tan and I a little surprised, because of the things on this mural.

People holding farm tools or weapons stretched for more than ten meters. My neck almost stiffened when I saw them, but I still didn’t see what they were chasing. Later, I saw that the crowd on the mural was getting smaller and smaller, but after a while, I saw that the crowd was getting smaller and smaller.

then

, a group of carriages appeared in front again. There were a bunch of boxes on those carriages, and there was a person standing behind each carriage. These people seemed to be shooting arrows behind them. At the front of the carriage team, there was a carriage with four horses.

A large carriage pulled by horses. At first glance, it was clear that this carriage was not for ordinary people. However, the attendants on both sides of the carriage looked very embarrassed. Some even had their hands and feet broken while they were crawling forward.

Although I didn't understand this, I could tell that this was a mural depicting an escape scene. The mural ended here, but my eyes were deeply attracted by a very subtle place.

On the gorgeous carriage, the window was slightly opened, and a white hand was holding on the window sill. This was nothing strange at first, but I saw something seemed to be tattooed on the back of the white hand.

pattern.

I stopped and stood up on my toes to get a closer look, but the place where the area was was relatively dark, so I took out the flashlight on my waist. By the light of the flashlight, I could see clearly that there was a tattoo on the back of that hand.

It's a spider with very clear lines and a dark red body.

The whole mural gives me a relatively freehand feeling. Each character mainly highlights the body movements, and the details don't seem to be that particular. Only the spider on the back of the hand is very delicately painted, which makes people feel a little awkward.

Lao Tan asked me what I was thinking about, and I told him about the spider and what I was thinking about.

Lao Tan laughed after hearing this, "It seems that you have inherited your father's genes. We just happened to have graduated, so you might as well take over his class."

I was not in the mood to joke with him, and after thinking about it, I felt that with all my knowledge, it would be a waste of time to ponder here. So I shook my head and continued on my way.

Not long after walking, I suddenly heard a scream from in front of me. The scream echoed in the narrow cave, deafening, and I was so frightened that I almost fell off the steps.

"It's a rat." After realizing it, I turned to Lao Tan and said.

The narrow hole is not straight, and there are many curved places along the way. The mouse and the peanut have already walked in front of us. We didn’t know what happened for a while, so Lao Tan and I ran over quickly.

Soon, we saw Peanut squatting on the steps, holding a person in his arms, it was Mouse. The boy seemed to be injured, covering his arm and screaming.

"What's going on?" I stepped forward and asked.

"He suddenly fell down the steps just now, and I didn't know either." Peanut looked confused.

"My hand, ah...something bit my hand." The mouse continued to scream.

At this time we saw that the arm covered by the mouse was bleeding.

"Is there a snake here?" Lao Tan asked doubtfully.

I suddenly felt a little numb on my back. This place is too narrow. If I encounter a venomous snake, I will definitely have no chance to hide. As I thought about it, I suddenly felt a cool breeze blowing on my left cheek. Hiss.

...The vent is on the right, left... When I turned around, I immediately patted the peanut.

"There's a hole there."

Everyone looked along our fingers and saw a stone cave that appeared diagonally above us. The cave was very small, not much bigger than my head, and was pitch black, like a pupil, dead on top.

Staring at us.

"Damn it, snakes are most likely to be found in this kind of hole." Old Tan frowned, and I felt chilly in my heart.

However, Peanut's original solemn gaze gradually dispersed. I saw the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up slightly, and a sneer flashed in his eyes. Suddenly, I saw him turn his hands, and the mouse in his arms was immediately pressed down by him.

He fell on the steps, and at the same time, he pressed his knee against the mouse's abdomen and strangled his throat with his left hand.

Lao Tan and I were completely confused and didn't know what Peanut was doing. But soon we discovered that in Mouse's hand, he actually held the three "keys" that Peanut had put in his backpack.

"This guy is pretending," Lao Tan shouted.

It was very obvious that the mouse's injury was an act. He wanted to use this opportunity to get close to Peanut and steal the three "keys".

I thought to myself that this person was really unpredictable, but I was also surprised, how did Peanut suddenly figure out the clues?

"Ah, cough, ah, spare your life, cough, three heroes, I, I don't dare anymore." The mouse was begging for mercy. Now we see that the wound on his arm was scratched by himself. However,

This kid was so cruel that he actually made two holes in his arm with his fingers.

Peanut was still smiling as before, but in the depths of his pupils, there was a hint of murderous intent. I was afraid that he would really strangle the mouse to death, so I stepped forward and grabbed his arm.

"Don't worry, I won't kill him before we get there." After saying that, Peanut let go of his hand, took the thing from the mouse's hand, and then inserted it into his waist.

"Why did you react so suddenly just now?" I asked immediately.

Peanut looked at the hole above our heads and said, "This hole should be where this kid climbed out of the ancient tomb."

"What?" I screamed.
