"Hey, what's going on over there? What's going on with the howling ghosts?"
Wang Qiang shouted twice towards the opposite side.
No one answered in the cave, and painful howls were still heard from time to time.
"Don't worry about them, just take care of our business."
Lao Feng shouted from behind.
"Lao Wang, don't be distracted. Open this door first!"
The five people listened to the screams that came from time to time in their ears, and used their hands and feet to pull the heavily rusted copper door.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch."
The four corners were pulled away by them in turn, and slowly separated from the base. The center position was left, but it still did not respond, as if something was fighting against them.
"I can't pull it anymore. The more I pull it, the closer it gets."
"You guys take a rest, I'll go over and pry it open with a sapper shovel."
Lin Yi pulled out the engineering shovel, came to the copper door, and poked in little by little along the gap he had just pulled out.
It seemed like it had really come into contact with something, soft and tough.
The blade of the engineer shovel was too short, so I had to replace it with a barrier knife, but I still couldn't reach the core of the mass.
I could only use the tip of a knife to pick out some soft things behind the copper door and take a look.
A ball of gray-white stuff, which looked like some kind of silk thread, felt sticky to the touch, and it stuck to the hand for a while and was difficult to shake off.
"What the hell is this, so disgusting?"
"It's a bit like lotus root silk. When I made Eight Treasures Ink Pad before, I specially took lotus root silk, just like this thing."
Bai Lu shook her head.
"I can't see it. Do you think this thing is spider silk?"
"Spider silk? You mean, there are a group of big spiders behind this copper door, spitting their silk threads on the copper door, and wrestling with us on the other end?"
"Reliable! What Lao Wang said is quite reliable."
"Me? I'm just telling you nonsense, how come it's so reliable?"
While they were discussing, a miserable roar came from the opposite passage again. After such a long time, no one was seen coming out, and no one knew what happened inside.
Lin Yi had no time to care about their life and death. He walked to the bronze door, untied the parachute rope and put it away. He took out the kerosene from his bag and poured it in along the gap of the bronze door.
Several bottles of kerosene were poured in and seeped along the copper door to the bottom.
"Go further away."
Lin Yi lit a kindling and threw it towards the bronze door.
"Poof!~"
All the kerosene on the bronze door was ignited, and flames shot into the sky.
There were still a lot of water stains around, and the crackling sound was temporarily blocked by the sound in the cave opposite.
As the fire grew stronger, the copper door also creaked.
Until the fire gradually extinguished, the copper door had been smoked black, like a wall of fire, and a piece of meat could be placed on it to make a teppanyaki.
When you get closer and smell it, you can clearly smell the smell of the protein being roasted.
Before the copper gate could cool down naturally, everyone took water from the remaining traces of water at the bottom of the lake to cool down the copper gate. They poured handfuls of clean water on it, making the surrounding steam steam.
Qian Sheng suddenly realized something was wrong.
"No, brother, look, the water here is like a spring. No matter how you scoop it up, you can't get it clean?"
Lin Yi walked closer to observe. After squeezing it flat with an empty bottle of mineral water, he sucked up the water in the puddle. After a while, it immediately filled it back up.
"No, I forgot to count the time. The water level here is going to rise. Everyone, hurry up!"
Lin Yi gave the order, and everyone quickly accelerated the rhythm of their hands.
If this copper door cannot be opened before the water level rises, who knows what kind of behemoths will be brought in this time?
The path that the man in sunglasses took was still filled with screams. What exactly happened there is still unknown.
In short, this copper door is the only way out for them.
"Hold on harder, the temperature of this door is the same as the BBQ grill at home, it's scalding hot!"
While they were still pouring water on the copper door to cool down, the water in the lake under their feet had begun to rise visibly to the naked eye.
The low-lying areas have been filled, and the sound of water can be clearly heard when walking underfoot.
It happened that at this time, the sounds of ghosts crying and howling in the passage began to slowly approach the entrance of the cave, and even the sound of chaotic footsteps could be heard.
"Damn it, a bunch of mourning stars, it's not enough for them to torment themselves to death, they also want to drag us down."
"No, what we have is just a drop in the bucket. It's useless. Brother Lin, think of a way."
As he spoke, the water under his feet had already submerged the soles of his shoes, covering his feet in an instant. There were already many underwater creatures in the water that came to this area with the warm lake water.
Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps. This is an eternal law of nature.
A temporarily enclosed water area is formed here, which is a natural hunting ground for those overlords who live in the water.
If we delay any longer, they will also become targets.
It seems that the only option is to sacrifice ice marrow again.
Lin Yi took out the glass bottle from his arms and placed the ice marrow under the copper door.
Old Feng stood far away, stretching his neck to watch.
"I knew you must have something good hidden in your hands, won't you show it now!"
While he was talking, driven by the ice marrow, a layer of mist had already covered the bronze door, followed by a layer of frost.
Lin Yi reached out and touched it. The temperature of the copper door had completely dropped.
He put away the ice marrow and tied the parachute rope to the copper door again.
"Brothers, work harder, victory or defeat depends on this!"
"receive!"
Wang Qiang tightly wrapped the parachute rope around his arm, and the others were also ready to use force.
"One, two, three! Pull!"
The four people on the shore worked together to pull the parachute rope. Lin Yi held an engineer shovel next to the copper door and used all his strength to pry open the gap.
Only a loud "bang" was heard, and the copper door opened in response.
At the same time, a cloud of black mist flew out of the passage above, and several bloody figures stumbled out of it.
Before any of them could react, a large and fine net suddenly flew out of the bronze door, covering the black mist without any bias.
"It seems that they are Guo Wenbin and the others?"
The light shone on their bodies, and their facial features could no longer be seen clearly. They could only judge their identities based on the clothes and equipment on their bodies.
These guys were completely panicked now. They stepped on the ground and fell into the bottom of the lake. Then they rushed into the copper gate regardless of the situation.
"Where's the guy with sunglasses? Why is this old boy missing?"
"What happened? Isn't this guy showing off his cards early?"
Lin Yi looked at the hole above his head, then at the intertwined black mist and fine net, and calmly shook his head.
"They must be in trouble." (End of chapter)
