Chapter 20: Ghostly Threads
Then, Peanut stopped talking. I turned my head and looked at the darkness ahead, and suddenly I felt that there were more things around me.
Half an hour later, Lao Tan finally woke up. He opened his eyes and shouted like crazy: "Ah, monster! Lao Yuan, help!"
I went up and kicked him, "Okay, if you scream like this, not to mention monsters, you will scare away the King of Hell."
Looking around, Lao Tan finally calmed down a little. I asked him what happened just now and why he was captured by the monster without making any sound.
Lao Tan's body immediately began to tremble, "I don't know, I was looking for the trap you mentioned on the moat, and suddenly a hand came from behind and covered my mouth. I didn't even have a chance to scream.
, I immediately felt like I was being lifted up by something, and then something covered my head. I tried desperately to break free, but because I couldn't breathe, I fainted... Oh, that's right, you guys
How did you save me?"
I told him what had just happened. After listening, Lao Tan looked at Peanut with great gratitude and asked him how his wound was.
Peanut smiled and shook his head, indicating that it was nothing serious, and asked: "You said a hand covered your mouth at that time?"
"Yes, I was still holding a flashlight at that time, so I could see that the hand was pale and extremely cold. Now that I think about it, it looks like it's still a woman's hand."
After Lao Tan finished speaking, the hairs on my body stood up, and I quickly told him to stop talking. We didn't have more time to test whether the monster was a spider or something else, so I gave Lao Tan Peanut's plan.
As soon as he said it, let him drink some water quickly and get ready to leave.
This man is curious about everything, but very timid. In addition, after being treated like a bacon just now, I originally thought he would be more scared than me. But who knew that after hearing this, he actually started rubbing his hands very excitedly and asked
Can I take a photo of him up there and tell me which girl to send it to when the time comes?
I rolled my eyes at him and said to myself that I should wait until my fate is over before I think about women.
According to Peanut's analysis, there should be a spider thread on each of the six stone pillars, fanning out along a certain point on the opposite tower. Therefore, he was able to crawl to Lao Tan from such a far edge just now. For safety, Peanut decided
Let's just walk on the same spider thread he climbed on just now and go over one by one.
I couldn't help but say, "But Lao Tan and I still can't get in."
Peanut did not answer, but took out the climbing rope from the bag, tied one end around my waist, then climbed up first, put the rope on the face of the person on top of the stone pillar, and then slid down the stone pillar.
.
I knew what was going on as soon as I saw it, "You want to pull me up?"
"That's right, but it's up to you to take the lead. The spider silk is right in front of the eyebrows of a person's face. When you go up there, you can squat down and touch it." Peanut finished speaking and made a "please" gesture with a smile.
.
At this time, I started to sweat. I said to myself, Dad, Dad, I know you have been working hard, but as a son, I can’t tolerate it. Then, I stopped thinking about it and started climbing up the stone pillar.
To say that I was climbing up is completely nonsense. As soon as I put my hand on it, I found that the stone that was coming up to me was actually smoother than Lao Tan's face. Let alone climbing, I could throw myself on it and not fall down.
It's not easy to fall off. So, I relied entirely on the pull of peanut to move up bit by bit.
There are no pulleys on this. If Peanut wants to pull me, he must be able to carry my weight of more than 150 kilograms. But that guy didn't even shake his hands. In less than five minutes, he pulled me to the stone pillar.
top.
"Lao Yuan, be careful." Lao Tan shouted from below.
"I'm here, it's okay." I responded, but even though I said it was okay, my legs started to tremble. I don't know why, but after I got up, I felt like things were shaking in all directions, and I felt like I was shaking my head.
Looking down**. However, I knew that looking down at this time would definitely scare me to death, so I crouched down, untied the rope around my waist, and began to fumble for the spider thread that Peanut mentioned.
"That spider silk is sticky, so it's easy to climb up." Peanut shouted from below.
Suddenly, my palms felt cold, and I touched something extremely sticky in the dark. Because I thought it was a spider silk from the beginning, I subconsciously thought that it would not be too thick. But
When I touched it, I was immediately shocked. The spider silk was as thick as my arm, and it was almost completely transparent.
"Is this fucking spider silk? If so, then, what kind of spider must it be that spits out this thing?" I immediately didn't dare to think any more, and then shouted down: "I
I touched it."
"Then you put down the rope. Let's move quickly to avoid a long night of dreams." Lao Tan wanted to climb up and take pictures, so he urged me.
I scolded him, and then I planned to throw the rope down with my other hand. However, the place where Peanut fixed the rope was in the groove of the human face, ears and skull. I didn't pay attention just now, but then I realized that I
After untying the rope, it was actually wrapped around the man's face's ears.
I was carrying a backpack at this time, and I was afraid of falling, so I was very inflexible in my movements. In addition, the groove was some distance from the top, so I could only stretch out half of my body to touch the rope.
I looked back and forth, knowing that there was no other way, so I threw myself on the ground, lying on the head of the human face like a puddle of mud, and then reached out to get the rope.
This was a life-threatening situation. As soon as I lowered my head, I saw Lao Tan and Peanut holding fire certificates below, and a strong sense of emptiness spread throughout my body. This was completely different from standing on a tall building and looking down.
, I felt a little confused in front of my eyes, but I still untied the rope with my hand.
When I saw the climbing rope falling, I quickly closed my eyes and slowly climbed up. At this time, Peanut shined a flashlight at me, and I also inserted the flashlight into my waist. This way, when I climb up later,
, I can see clearly what is in front of me.
For a moment, the three of us didn't dare to make a sound. Peanut and Lao Tan stared at me intently, and I grabbed the spider thread with my hands, for fear that I would slip off. However, this worry was
Extra. Just like what Peanut said, the stickiness of spider silk is very strong. After putting my hands on it, I actually felt like I was being fixed. I thought to myself, how can I crawl like this?
It took me a full three minutes to wrap my hands and feet on the spider silk. At the same time, the whole spider silk shook. I was so scared that all the muscles in my body tightened, and I kept chanting "Amitabha" in my heart.
I don't know how long it took for the spider silk to gradually become stable.
"Don't be afraid, imagine yourself as a monkey." Lao Tan shouted from below.
I almost didn't cry, thinking that this fucking monkey is really annoying. However, I slowly stretched out my hand forward. Then I found that this spider silk was very strange. When it didn't move, it would stick to you.
It's very tight, but I can easily leave it as soon as I stretch out my hands and feet. Hehe, it's really like a fucking escort girl. When I go there, I kiss you like a couple, and when I'm done, I can shake it off with a wave of my hand.
I was probably so scared that I kept thinking about these irrelevant things while climbing. It seemed that there was no extra space in my mind to think about whether I was afraid or not. All my thoughts were the same, and I couldn't let go even if I died.
When people are in an extremely dangerous environment or think they are extremely dangerous, as long as they bite the bullet, they can often show extraordinary abilities. Although climbing a cable is not a big deal, for me at this time
But it was already the limit. Thinking about it later, I was fucking raped by ancient tombs for many of the first times in my life.
I don’t know how long I’ve been climbing, but I felt that the voices of Lao Tan and Peanut were getting farther and farther away, and finally I couldn’t hear anything at all. Just when I was about to look around, my head suddenly hit something hard, which hurt me so much.
Bare teeth straight.
When I turned around to look, I immediately shouted: "My grandma, I finally crawled over."
A kind of extreme excitement and joy after success filled my whole body instantly. I turned around and saw that the stone slab below was very close to me. At the same time, I also felt that my hands and feet were weak. I don’t know whether it was because of my own thoughts or because my body had lost strength. Suddenly,
I fell off the spider's thread. Although the stone slab beneath me was cold, I still felt at ease.
The end point of the spider's thread was directly above the city tower, where there was a stone path one or two meters apart. I fell on it with my backpack on my back, and lay there for a long time before I stood up.
Standing on the tower and taking a flashlight to look down, I suddenly had the illusion that time and space were chaotic, as if I had arrived in ancient times. However, that excitement was quickly overwhelmed by the strange and silent atmosphere around me.
