”Look, it melted!” The pockmark stretched out his hand. A layer of liquid.
” Isn't it a wooden wall? How could it melt? ”
” ”No, maybe this piece of material isn't made of wood, otherwise the lower part of the wall would be stained with blood, and this section wouldn't be, that would be a reasonable explanation for why there's no blood on the back. Oh right, I don't know how long this wall is, if we look for, mark, draw, cut, buckle, it would take a lot of effort, I think we should reach in and see if we can dig the upper or lower part out from the slit, which part is good?” The pockmarked man looked at us and clapped the liquid on his hands.
” Fine, let's give it a try. Do we dare to guess what's behind this? ” I asked them.
” ”Come on, good idea, it's too tiring to work and get some fun out of it. Why don't we all guess it and see who got it right in the end?” Ma Zi was very happy to continue.
” Let me start with the terracotta soldier's red corpse, or a giant wolf, or the black blind man.
” I still have one more thing to do, a real burial pit. Right now, we might be at the periphery of the grave and have yet to come in contact with the core. I bet that this is the real burial chamber! ” Ma Zi was very confident. It sounds like I've thought about this as well. If it's true, countless curious cells in my bones would be itching from the temptation.
” Little sister, don't you think that one of us is right? ” He got up, approached the wall again, and tentatively put his hand inside.
” pockmarked brother, wait! ” She raised the red corpse's head and torchlight near her. She lowered her head and looked inside, ”It seems like there are a lot of things hanging there. I can't see them clearly, they're too narrow!”
” Hanging things? ”Emma, could it be that there's a group of terracotta soldiers dead? F * ck me!”
” ”It's not a corpse. It doesn't look very thick. It's very thin!”
” ”Forget it, I can't see the accuracy of it either. This brother will pay for it!” He threw it into a dry land where we could dry our rations.
” No problem, come, you guys back off, I'll give it a try myself! ” As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and slowly reached his hands into the air. I held my breath as I stared at his hands, ready to make a move at any moment. I grabbed him by the waist and pulled him back.
