The Secret of Great Wall

reat Wall, the largest construction project in history, has an over 2,000 year history. The Great Wall
was a twenty five foot high, twenty foot wide, and over 1500 miles long wall. The Great Wall of
China, it built to protect the people and territories south of the wall from a continued threat of
invasion by the northern nomadic tribes. Seems like this is the truth, but is there anyone who ever
doubt that? Is that the truth? Does it have to be that long? Does it really worth that much life?
When I was young I heard of something strange, I didn’t know that who told me that, but I never suspected
that was fake. “The Great Wall wasn’t just a wall for protecting people but other uses. William, the real world is
dark, only the strong one’s survived. Will you be the one of the strong one’s? Some of the children have been
chosen, they are only guinea pigs. I’m not going to tell you all about that, you will be good enough to find it out
by yourself.” Really, I didn’t have any memories who told me that. I didn’t know that is it only a dream or it did
happen.
Now, I am an adventurer and a historian. I feel really interested in history. The Great Wall seems like so
mysterious, I am now dying for all the truths.
You know what? I have a feeling that The Great Wall have some secret that no one knows yet. I don’t
know what is that, but I am going to find it out.
I am an expert of The Great Wall, I know everything of it right know. I am going to be the first one who
discover the secret of The Great Wall. For this reason, I have to go there for a walk. I get full support from a
company, they will take me there and let me have look of the whole Great Wall.
I am ready to go, I pack up all my stuffs and go to the airport to catch the flight. The first thing to do when
I arrived Beijing is to go to The Great Wall, not to check in hotel, not to go shopping. My journey is now begins.
Because it is a long journey, so I will take a helicopter rather than walk by my bare foot.
What a wonderful day, the sun is shining, the wind is blowing, the scenery is so awesome. I almost forget
the purpose why I am being here.
I am now in the middle of The Great Wall. I get off the helicopter and starting to walk. I fall down
something and I’m going to pick it up. I put one hand in the ground for supporting, and the ground suddenly
begin to break. I have no idea what I can do. I can’t reach the side, I can’t jump over and get back to the
helicopter. It is hopeless, all I can do is pray and wait to die.
I am falling, I can’t think of any other thing but my family. They love me a lot and I haven’t remunerate
them yet. The tears are coming down from my eyes. What I can do now? Just think of stupid things? But really I
can do nothing. I am now thinking of why I have been falling so long. I suppose to reach the ground already.
Where am I? A minute past, I am still falling. What is happening? I am being impatient. How long do I still have
to fall?
“
Oh my gosh! Still falling? I don’t think I haven’t fall for fifteen minutes! Enough! Let me die, please!” I
begged. I am going to fall asleep. Falling makes me feel sick. I will go to get some sleep.
“
Good morning everyone!” I yelled. I open my eyes and screamed, “Oh my!” I take out my phone and look
at the time. It’s at night. When I fell it is day time. I feel so bored, is there anything to do. I try to stand up, I
didn’t fall, I can stand. I run around and suddenly I feel I fall down to the bottom. “Finally.” But why am I still
alive, I suppose to be dead. I look around, I see something that blows strong wind, I think i just slept in the wind,
I have been tricked.
I open my backpack and have a look, no food, only a torch and a coat. It is freezing, I wear my coat and
take my torch, and started to walk aimless. I have no food and drinks, I can only live for maximum 3 days. No.
Two days, I have been falling for 1 day.
Well, I don’t know what I am doing. Is this only a trick? I find a map on the floor. Just like a treasure map.
And beside it is a dead body. I follow the map and start walking, I have to be fast. I don’t even have a campus,
what should I do. I see a spider, I heard that before the spider net is always facing south, so I know where I
should go now.
Here is just like a maze, so many ways to go, it is so much like a game, but I am not having fun with it, I
would die.
Sometimes I have to go find a key to open a door and continue to go. It takes me so much time. It is already
one day past, I still haven’t get any sleep, but I have to keep going.
I am dying, I have to get out from here!
Finally I find it! The treasure, it is a box. I open it!
