Chen Qinghan took me on a path I had never taken before—the lower path!
The entire labyrinthine tomb path was like a carousel, with a main axis supporting it below, but there was a distance between the tomb path floor and the actual ground.
We crawled into this lower path, Chen Qinghan said that only half of this path was passable, although difficult, it was very safe, allowing us to crawl directly down to the main tomb chamber.
Because I couldn't move, he tied me to his back, crawling like a snail.
And I was the heavy shell, upon crawling in, I realized that this lower path was actually the connecting area for the tomb's mechanical traps.
To crawl through smoothly, Chen Qinghan had to know the order of movement for the traps.
As the various sections of the labyrinthine tomb path moved on a timer, one small mistake and we could be crushed to death.
I lay quietly on his back, not daring to disturb him for fear of affecting his calculations of time and direction.
