I looked back at Cui Hao.
He still held the hammer and hammered the nails into the wall. Unfortunately, the soul-killing nails that were nailed to the wall would fall off the wall with just a slight shake.
After all, this is not a soil layer, but a hard rock layer.
The soul-suppressing nail was originally made of steel, and the tip in front was very tough.
There is no way to knock the bend directly.
Even if it is bent, it is difficult to embed it directly on the stone wall. Instead, it will slide outward every time.
Although this thing is feasible to a certain extent, its safety is really poor.
If you can climb over the wall, it might be possible for a lighter child to try.
But if we try it, I'm really afraid that we will fall from mid-air and fall to the ground.
At that time, the hole here will completely become the burial place for the two of us.
I didn't believe in evil, so I simply started tapping the edges of the surrounding holes again, trying one last time.
Cui Hao had completely lost confidence at this time.
He sat next to me with a pile of nails and rope, staring blankly into the void ahead.
"It's so scary. Who set up this place? Why does this mechanism move when we step on it? The most terrible thing is that it can be restored. Who is so perverted that he can come up with such a thing?"
I was noncommittal and asked him to find something and knock on the ground with me.
Cui Hao seems to be extremely repelled by this work.
He suddenly picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it hard on the ground in front of him.
"When will we find a way out?"
The stone hit the ground with a crisp sound.
Suddenly a hole appeared in front of us again.
The stone fell instantly.
"oops!"
Vaguely, I seemed to hear a cry of pain from below.
I took a breath of confusion.
"Cui Hao, did you hear anything?"
Cui Hao looked up at me, his eyes dull and shook his head.
"What sound can there be? Aren't there just two of us alive? Is there anything else?"
As he spoke, he looked up at the entrance from behind.
"Could it be those guys in the crack just now? I wonder what they shouted?"
After speaking, Cui Hao even took a few steps back.
I frowned, picked up the stone, and quickly hit it at the point where Cui Hao had just thrown the stone.
With a bang, the stone fell to the ground.
That place was hit hard, and a large hole suddenly appeared again.
The stone fell again.
There was a crisp sound, and another faint shout came from below.
I immediately realized that the sound was coming from the hollow.
I grabbed Cui Hao and pulled him to me.
"Come here and listen carefully. Is the sound coming from inside the cave?"
Cui Hao was stunned, and quickly stood beside me, listening carefully to the front.
I threw the stone again.
This time, both of us clearly heard the sound of national essence coming from inside.
"Who is it that will chop off your heads after I get out?"
We both looked at each other with excitement in our eyes.
I immediately picked up the stones, aimed them at the holes nearest me and threw them down one by one.
But this time, there was no expected response.
It was very quiet down there, and there was no answer from anyone.
"Strange, is there someone in only that one?"
I thought for a while, took out a piece of paper from my body, and took out the precious jade brush and ink that Cui Hao had hidden on me.
He looked at me with pain as I wrote a string of words with a brush, then tied it to a stone and threw it towards the previous location.
With a bang, the stone fell to the ground.
Soon there was another shout from below.
"Do they have anyone? Find a way to rescue me."
Because the voice was shouted this time, the volume was very high and the sound was extremely clear.
The two of us clearly heard that this was a person below who was hit by our rocks and then shouted out.
Cui Hao looked particularly excited.
"Let me go. Apart from the people in the crack, are there other people locked down here?"
Cui Hao was stunned and took a breath of doubt.
"Why is this place so weird? I think it's much weirder than the previous places. There are so many people imprisoned here. How did they get here? This is not important. The important thing is that they all stay here. How long did it take and how did you survive? Is there anything to eat here?"
Faced with so many whys, I naturally can’t answer any of them.
I covered Cui Hao's mouth.
"Shut up and let me think about it."
I thought for a moment and walked back quickly.
"Cui Hao, come back with me. Let's go to the crack and ask again to see what the people inside have to say."
Cui Hao nodded and followed me out.
We soon returned to the edge of the crevice.
I looked through the crack again, but I still couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.
But as we moved, the people inside began to shake their bodies slightly.
Soon, I felt that a person seemed to be walking in front of the crack.
The man sighed softly at me.
"Have you found a way out?"
His voice was hoarse, but it was much better than before.
It seems that I gave him water and food, which helped him regain some strength.
I responded immediately.
"No, but we saw a lot of holes in front of us. When we threw things into them, there were still people inside who responded."
I tried my best to describe the situation just now as carefully and as carefully as possible without missing any detail.
"So I just want to ask you, do you know what's going on there?"
After listening to my words, the person in the crack suddenly showed some excitement.
"That's the entrance, that's where we fell in."
I was stunned.
"What did you say?"
You must know that it is a hole in the ground, and you don’t know where it leads down there.
But the horizontal position is at least much lower than the ground we are standing on.
The clearing at the cave was clearly on the same level as the crack.
So if they fell into the tunnel, how did they get to the high ground?
It seems that he noticed my doubts.
The man struggled to respond.
"There is only one long tunnel underground. I walked along the tunnel deeper and then came to this place. This tunnel has a slight slope and I gradually passed up, so I Made it this far.”
As he spoke, there was a bit of excitement in his voice.
"I remember that when I was passing through the ground in front, I missed my footing and fell into the tunnel."
I nodded and immediately asked this person.
"Then do you know how to safely pass through this tunnel? Because when we smashed the rocks, the responding voice was at the far end."
I carefully recalled the situation just now.
When we smashed the stone, the hole clearly appeared near the edge of the coffin.
This means that someone found a way to get to the position only one step away from the sarcophagus.
It's a pity that an accident happened, and they still didn't escape the fate of falling into the tunnel, and eventually fell in.
But even so, it is much better than us stumbling around here looking for it at will.
After hearing my question, the person in the crack sighed.
"I don't know, because I fell in front. I just took a step and fell directly into the hole."
As he spoke, he knocked on the wall again.
"Moreover, there are many people around us who are in the same situation as me. They almost always fall in when they take a step forward."
Speaking of this, the man's voice seemed to be filled with fear and sadness.
"You don't know, there are several corpses lying next to me. They should all be trapped alive under here. They didn't have anything to eat or drink, so they died underground. Because I still have some food with me, That’s why we’ve survived until now. But if you find that guy, maybe he really has the ability to reach the end of the tunnel.”
Hearing this, I nodded.
"Cui Hao, it seems that the most important thing for us next is to contact the guy in the cave at the end and ask him to go forward. Come to these cracks and exchange information with us."
I just walked around carefully in front and couldn't find a way to go back.
There is only one way before me now, and that is to let that guy show us the way forward.
After listening to what I said, Cui Hao nodded and agreed with my opinion.
"Okay, then I'll go over there and throw stones, then write down our requirements and ask the guy to come over. You just wait here and see which crack around you will make noise again."
I handed the pen and paper to Cui Hao, and he quickly went to the cave in front of him with the things in hand.
I stayed where I was and had a brief conversation with the man in front of me.
He told me that he had been underground for nearly a week. He had a watch on him, and he could easily judge the time through the watch.
"What are you doing here?"
I'm curious.
Cui Hao and I came to this dangerous place just because of the shroud here.
I saw that the guy in front of me spoke clearly and had average abilities. He didn't seem to be a well-prepared tomb robber.
That being the case.
Ordinary people have no way of going deep into such a high place. When they are in the dense forest in front, they will be charmed by the ghosts inside, and thus they will be completely lost in the forest in front.
They would never come to this place at all.
But now that this guy is here and even has some supplies with him, it proves that he does have ulterior motives.
I feel that this person definitely did not come alone. There should be other guides beside him.
Facing my questioning, the man was silent for a moment before speaking.
"We're here for the baby!"
