Although the wooden box is heavy, it does work. When it hit the fourth time, there was a small crack in the wall.
Dong Qiangqiang waved his hand to push away the debris on the wall, trying to make the cracks bigger.
"A few more times and we can go out!" Lei Lanting shouted excitedly, "Haha, you guys are really rich this time!"
The three of them bumped into each other a few more times, and a ten centimeter wide crack suddenly appeared on the wall. Not long after, the crack became twenty centimeters wide, thirty centimeters wide... and finally turned into a hole completely.
Under the action of Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting's combos of grabbing, pulling, and kicking, the small hole turned into a big hole that could almost fit a person into.
Lei Lanting couldn't wait to look into the hole, and suddenly noticed something strange. He turned back and glanced at Dong Qiangqiang, "No, didn't you say this is the basement of the kitchen? This, this is not a basement either? This is a tunnel. .”
"Tunnel?" Dong Qiangqiang was startled, and quickly stood at the entrance of the cave and looked in, "Is it the wrong direction?"
Lei Lanting was right. There was actually a dark tunnel behind the wall. The diameter of the inner wall of the tunnel seemed to be about seventy centimeters. Dong Qiangqiang stretched out his hand and touched it. It felt very similar to the slide just now. It felt smooth, and maybe The slide is the same product.
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew out of the tunnel, and it seemed that the other end of the tunnel led to the outside.
"Mueller, where does this secret passage in your house lead to?" Lei Lanting raised his head and glanced at Mueller, who was standing beside him without saying a word.
Mueller shrugged and said he didn't know.
Dong Qiangqiang used his flashlight to shine into the tunnel: "This road is most likely the road that Old Muller took when he transported the treasure into the secret room. Or should we take a walk along this road and have a look?"
"Hey, let's go here? Is it safe?" Lei Lanting glanced at Dong Qiangqiang and objected, "I think it's safe for us to go out from the basement. How about you think about it again?"
Muller looked at the tunnel and hugged his pajamas bundle wrapped in banknotes tightly without saying a word.
"You..." Before Dong Qiangqiang could finish his words, he suddenly felt his body shaking violently.
"Damn it," Lei Lanting raised his head and looked at the ceiling, "There won't be an earthquake at this time, right?"
"Don't panic," Dong Qiangqiang said in a deep voice, "Hannover is not in the earthquake zone. There are very few earthquakes in mainland Germany, mainly in southern Germany. It is definitely not an earthquake."
"What should we do?" Lei Lanting said anxiously, "Let's rush..."
Before they finished speaking, the three of them heard a woman's voice calling from behind them: "Dong Qiangqiang, Lei Lanting, are you all here?"
Hearing Tong Lele's voice, the two of them turned around quickly, but no one saw Tong Lele talking.
"We are all here. Where are you?" Lei Lanting shouted, "Why can't I see you."
Lei Lanting looked at Dong Qiangqiang questioningly, and Dong Qiangqiang also shook his head.
Tong Lele's voice disappeared. Dong Qiangqiang heard that her voice seemed to come from the wall in front of him. As he approached the wall, he shouted: "Tong Lele, where are you?"
"Haha, I saw you." Tong Lele's happy voice came to the ears of the three of them, although the voice still sounded a little blurry.
"Have you seen us?" Lei Lanting turned his head suspiciously, "But why can't we see you?"
"You guys stand back." Tong Lele shouted, "Dong Qiangqiang stay farther away from the wall."
Dong Qiangqiang, like Lei Lanting, could not see where Tong Lele was, so he could only follow her request and gradually retreat.
He had just retreated a few meters when he heard a "bang bang" knocking sound from the other side of the "wall" in front of him. Just when he was surprised, he saw a crack appear on the "wall" in front of him. As the knocking sound became louder and louder, the cracks became larger and more numerous, and finally they became like spider webs.
Suddenly, a hammer burst out from the center of the spider web, and Dong Qiangqiang blurted out: "It's cleared!"
The hammer retracted again, followed by another violent knock. Not long after, the upper left corner of the spider web was also smashed open with a hammer, and the "wall" hung diagonally on the wall like a piece of paper.
Lei Lanting shouted anxiously to the wall: "Lele, is that you? Are you okay?"
"You two, help me quickly," Tong Lele said, "get this thing down."
Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting quickly pulled the damaged "wall" off the wall, and then discovered that the "wall" turned out to be a single-sided see-through glass. No wonder Tong Lele could see them.
"Stop looking at the glass and pick me up quickly." Tong Lele lowered her body and squeezed into the secret room through the glass frame on the wall.
"Why did you come in? We are still planning to go out." Lei Lanting said while helping her.
"We can't get out." Tong Lele jumped into the secret room and curled her lips, "There's a fire outside."
"Fire?" Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting asked in unison, with surprised expressions on their faces.
"What's going on? Tell us quickly." Dong Qiangqiang said urgently.
"After you guys went in, I fell asleep for a few minutes. I vaguely heard a sound downstairs, so I went downstairs with a hammer to take a look, and found that the house was on fire. I wanted to put out the fire, but the fire was too strong. I looked around for an exit, but I didn’t know why the door couldn’t be opened. There was fire all around, and burning wood kept falling down. I wanted to jump out of the window and run away, but there was also fire on the window, and..." Tong Lele took a breath, "I noticed there seemed to be someone outside the window, so I didn't dare to jump anymore. Then I heard something like a sound in the basement, so I came down. Then I heard a lot of movement on the other side of the wall. There was a lot of movement on the wall. The painting was shaken, exposing the glass behind it. Then I saw the three of you, but you couldn’t seem to see me.”
"Did the torch in the fireplace light the curtains?" Dong Qiangqiang suddenly asked.
Tong Lele shook his head: "I thought so at first, but I see that the wood in the fireplace is far away from the window, so it shouldn't be the case."
Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting took a breath of cold air and looked at each other. Dong Qiangqiang murmured to himself: "Fire? The door can't be opened? Is there someone outside the window? What on earth is going on?"
"Hey, Mueller, is she your sister..." Lei Lanting suddenly turned around and asked. At this time, he suddenly found that Mueller was no longer in the secret room, and even his pajamas had disappeared.
"Damn it, the Japs have escaped!" Lei Lanting was shocked, "We have to hurry up, otherwise he will block the passage and no one will be able to escape."
The three of them quickly got into the tunnel and crawled forward. The tunnel wall was wet and slippery, and everyone climbed slowly. However, after climbing for several minutes, Mueller was nowhere to be seen.
Lei Lanting, who climbed first, said curiously: "I really didn't realize that this Japanese guy climbed quite fast."
"You always want to fight, how can you not run away?" Dong Qiangqiang, who was last in line, analyzed.
"Old Dong," Lei Lanting suddenly said with emotion, "I think of the American movie about prison escape I watched in junior high school in 1994. Isn't that how the male protagonist climbed out of prison? ?"
"They can climb sewage pipes so well, you can't compare to this." Dong Qiangqiang said angrily, "Besides, just talk, don't use your words to secretly fart. There are two people behind you."
"I fart when I'm nervous," Lei Lanting laughed loudly, "Maybe it's that duck like you that's causing the trouble."
"It's so wicked! It's killing me." Tong Lele covered her mouth with one hand and cursed, "Hurry up and crawl away, don't stop!"
While crawling, Lei Lanting suddenly stopped.
"Why don't you crawl?" Tong Lele, who almost hit Lei Lanting's butt, asked dissatisfiedly, "Aren't you holding in your fart again?"
Lei Lanting turned his head and said, "There is a fork in the road ahead."
"A fork in the road?" Tong Lele and Dong Qiangqiang were stunned at the same time. Dong Qiangqiang asked suspiciously, "A crossroads?"
"No, it's not a crossroads. There are two roads, one left and one right. Which one should we take?"
Dong Qiangqiang thought for a while: "Let's not all go to one side. Dalei, you take Lele to the left, and I will go to the right."
Tong Lele frowned and said, "No, I'll go to the right too. I can't stand him farting all the time."
Dong Qiangqiang glanced at her: "Let's act separately. If anyone goes out, he should hide first. Da Lei remembers that if you meet someone, don't conflict head-on, and pay attention to protecting yourself."
"You guys too." Lei Lanting didn't dare to delay and climbed straight into the left tunnel.
After entering the tunnel on the right, Dong Qiangqiang moved to the front. While crawling forward, he paid attention to the situation in front of him.
"How many people did you see just now?" Dong Qiangqiang asked while crawling.
"It was too dark to see clearly. There seemed to be three or four of them. I was scared so I didn't dare to jump out of the window and run away."
Dong Qiangqiang's mind was spinning rapidly: Could it be that those people from Yipin Furong followed him here and deliberately set the fire? But why? Is it because of Jin Yuan? His thoughts were very confused, and he couldn't figure out anything after thinking for a long time.
There were no obstacles in the tunnel, and the two of them climbed to the end of the tunnel in less than ten minutes. Dong Qiangqiang poked his head out of the tunnel, looked up and down, and found that he was on the inner wall of a dry well. He estimated that he was about two meters away from the bottom of the well, so he carefully jumped to the bottom of the well and directed Tong Lele to jump out of the tunnel as well.
There is an iron ladder handrail on the inner wall of the dry well, which seems to lead to the top.
"I'll go up and take a look first. You wait for me here." Dong Qiangqiang ordered, and Tong Lele nodded obediently.
Dong Qiangqiang crept to the top and gently turned the handle on the manhole cover. The handle was very heavy. He turned it for a long time before the manhole cover made a squeaking sound. After hearing a dull click, Dong Qiangqiang let go of his hand and tried to lift it. Lift the manhole cover.
The manhole cover was a crack away from the ground, and Dong Qiangqiang exposed his two eyes and carefully observed the surrounding environment. Through the window in the house, he saw a fire outside. The room was filled with various tools and seemed to be a tool room.
He put his hand out of the manhole cover, picked up a screw cap nearby, and threw it under the corner of the table next to him. It made a crisp "ding" sound, but the room was quiet and there was no reaction.
Just when he was about to get out of the well, he suddenly heard the sound of unlocking outside the room. He immediately held his breath and lowered the manhole cover so that he could barely see the door on the left front.
The door was suddenly opened from the outside, and a plump figure nimbly got in, with a big bundle hanging on his back. As soon as he entered the room, he locked the door from the inside.
He turned around, looked around, and shouted softly: "Dong Qiangqiang, Tong Lele, are you there?"
Seeing Lei Lanting coming in, Dong Qiangqiang quickly raised the manhole cover: "We are here."
Lei Lanting was stunned and trotted over quickly, asking anxiously: "Where is Lele?"
"I'm down there." Tong Lele shouted from the well.
"Come up quickly." Lei Lanting waved his hand, and Tong Lele climbed out in three clicks.
"How did you get in?" Dong Qiangqiang asked.
"I have the key."
"Your room should also be locked from the outside. How did you get out? Where's Mueller?" Dong Qiangqiang looked around.
"When I climbed out, the manhole cover and door of my house were open. I didn't see him, so he must have run away."
"This fire is too big." Dong Qiangqiang asked while observing the situation outside the window, "What's going on outside now?"
"I don't know." Lei Lanting seemed at a loss.
"Then what should we do now?" Tong Lele asked anxiously.
"What else can we do? Run away. Why don't you run away after getting rich?" Lei Lanting patted his pajamas and said, "This time we will get rich."
"Get rich?" Tong Lele felt confused, "Get rich for what?"
"Let's talk about it later, the first priority is to get out of this hellish place." Lei Lanting said as he walked towards the door.
"What if Mueller didn't run out?" Tong Lele suddenly asked worriedly.
"He is German, you don't have to worry about him." Lei Lanting said dismissively.
Just when Lei Lanting's hand was about to touch the doorknob, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps outside.
The three people in the room immediately shut up and pricked up their ears.
The door of the house suddenly "clanged" and was pulled from the outside. Then Dong Qiangqiang and the others heard someone buzzing outside the house: "Have you just inspected this house?"
"Not yet." A thin male voice replied.
"Hey, why is this lock on the ground? Open the door and take a look." Another voice said. It was not clear whether it was a man or a woman from the voice.
"This door seems to be locked from the inside." The thin male voice said again.
"Smash it open." The buzzing man ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, the three people in the room heard the crash, and the three of them hurriedly hid themselves.
Tong Lele clearly heard her violent heartbeat and felt that her heart would jump out of her chest at any time. Her palms were sweaty and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
With a "bang" sound, the door opened.
