"Huh~~"
"How are you!?"
After escaping the pursuit, everyone who entered the cave sat down and gasped.
The torch in his hand is also swaying slightly with the wind.
After Chen Hao took a breath, he immediately raised his head, looked at everyone, and asked.
"It's okay!"
........
Everyone responded one after another.
Only Li Ergeng remained silent
But it was also because he was frightened that he was lying on the ground and breathing heavily.
"Fat man, are you injured?" Soon, Lao Hu noticed the injuries on Fat Man's arms. Several wounds seemed to have been caused when he had just dealt with the earth-burrowing dragon, and his arms were still bleeding.
When the fat man heard the sound, he lowered his head and glanced, then waved his hands indifferently and said: "Hey~~ These are just minor injuries on the skin, I didn't even take them seriously."
"Don't underestimate minor fur injuries! These bugs live underground all year round, and they might be contaminated with toxicity. Even if they are not toxic, it is not good if they are infected!" Chen Hao took over the topic, and then took out the prepared medical kit from his bag. As well as medicinal wine, he handed it to Da Jinya and said, "Old Jin, bandage it."
"Eh~" Da Jinya responded, took the things and walked towards the fat man.
Looking at the battle in front of him, the fat man reached out and scratched his forehead, and said with a smile: "Hey, shopkeeper, I, Wang Kaixuan, am a rough man, not so delicate. I see that the quantity of medicinal wine and gauze you have is quite small. Now we are being Being stuck in this place, what if there is something else and it is not enough? I think I still..."
In fact, the fat man was thinking about the overall situation, and it was rare for him to be so careful.
The main reason is that they are now forced to be trapped in this cave. It is hard to say what will happen in the future and whether they can get out.
In this case, medical equipment is extremely precious. They are rough people and often get one or two cuts on themselves. He never takes it seriously, but Chen Hao is different. After all, he is For a big boss who lives in the city, this thing is still more important to him.
"In my eyes, there are no rough people or noble people! You were injured because of me, so I must be responsible! Besides, these things are meant for everyone. If anyone is injured, I will take it out. Don't Having said so much, hurry up and bandage it!" Facing the fat man's words, Chen Hao didn't understand, but as a leader, he naturally had his own arrangements.
These words also come from the heart.
At this moment when everyone is surrounding the cave,
As a leader, this speech also greatly stabilized the morale of the military.
Not only the fat man recognized it, but others also did so at the same time.
"Fat man, just listen to the shopkeeper. These bugs will inevitably be contaminated with toxins and the like. It will be bad if they are infected. The current situation is special. Disinfection and bandaging are the key." Old Hu also spoke to persuade at this moment.
Similarly, his recognition of Chen Hao has also deepened a lot.
"Hey!" In this case, the fat man stopped talking and became obedient.
Chen Hao nodded, taking this time to raise the torch and turn his eyes around.
After a brief observation, Chen Hao found that the internal passage of the cave was very large. The dark passage was completely invisible to the camera. The interior of the cave was of different sizes and was as winding as a small snake.
Later, there were countless flying insects flying around outside the cave entrance.
There are gusts of wind inside, but this is a good thing! The sound of wind proves that the inside of the cave is not small and there is a place leading to the outside. This means that what they entered is not a dead end!
"Now we can't get out for the time being. I think we can only walk inside and see if there is a way out." Chen Hao held the torch and suggested to the people behind him.
After hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment and then nodded.
"Shopkeeper, we all listen to you." The fat man responded while accepting the bandage.
After resting in place for a while
Chen Hao came to the back and listened to the situation outside, and found that there were still a lot of sounds of insects outside, so he asked everyone to take out the things in the baggage, and then put some stones in the baggage to make a strong city wall. Enter the cave entrance to prevent flying insects from breaking through the encirclement.
Afterwards, Chen Hao took out the searchlights he had prepared before, one for each person. After each person ate a large piece of biscuits and dried meat and drank some water to replenish their strength, they set off on the road again.
This cave is smaller in size
Therefore, the width can only accommodate one person walking inside, and he has to do so in a semi-crouching position.
Therefore, the formation at this moment was divided into Fatty taking the lead, Lao Hu following closely behind, Chen Hao and Da Jinya following behind, and Li Ergeng behind.
But fortunately, the cave became obviously wider as they went inside. From the beginning, they had to bend forward, and later on, they could stand upright more easily.
The scale of this cave is very large, and its internal structure far exceeds Chen Hao's imagination.
Chen Hao felt that... the cave outside just now was more like a passage... or... more like a larger robbery cave! ?
"The shopkeeper's!"
"Come and look, there are two doors!"
Just when Chen Hao was confused about the situation around him, the fat man's shout came from ahead, interrupting his train of thought.
"Um!?"
After coming back to his senses, Chen Hao immediately raised his eyebrows and saw the fat man standing in front of him, constantly waving to him, as if he had discovered something new.
In front of the searchlight, there were two huge stone doors. As they moved forward, they seemed to have followed the passage to a vast interior area of the cave, and these stone doors blocked their way.
"Look, why is there a stone gate here?"
The fat man raised his searchlight high, and after Chen Hao came over, he pointed at the stone door in front of him and shouted.
Chen Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard the sound. In front of him were two huge stone gates. There were two handles directly in front of the stone gates. They were shaped like dragon heads and fish tails. They looked majestic. Their sharp fangs were biting two round buckles.
"Is this... Chi Kiss?" Chen Hao looked at the handle above and quickly recognized the pattern.
"Chi Kiss!? Oh~ This man is a mythical beast building that was often used in the Imperial Palace during the Tang Dynasty." When Da Jinya heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.
"During the Tang Dynasty? How many years ago was that?" The fat man blinked his eyes and couldn't help but ask.
"Chiki is a mythical beast in the ancient culture of the Dragon Kingdom. He is the youngest of the nine sons of the Dragon. He is fond of swallowing. The shape of the animal head on the ridge of the temple is his portrait. The five spines and six beasts can only be owned by officials. Some houses will have The small Chi Kiss, look at this head, it is not used by civilians at all." Lao Hu held the searchlight high, carefully looked at the door handle in front of him, and said softly.
"Hiss... Then the person living here couldn't be a certain emperor from the feudal era, right?" When the fat man heard this, he immediately became interested and asked quickly.
"It's hard to say..." Chen Hao squinted his eyes and shook his head: "But... Chiqi is usually used on the roof, and is located on the left and right sides of the house to guard. In ancient times, it was usually used The chi kiss is made into a shape of opening its mouth to swallow the ridge, and a sword is fixed to it. The small beast made of clay is invited to the roofs of palaces, temples and nobles to look down at the world, which means "smooth progress to the clouds" and "one person can win." "Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven", but I have never heard of anyone using this thing as a door handle, and the end is still downward..."
"This...is not in line with the Feng Shui pattern."
Chen Hao held his chin and shook his head gently.
"Hey~~ Shopkeeper, do you also know Feng Shui?" The fat man's eyes lit up when he heard these words, and he quickly pointed at Lao Hu and said: "Lao Hu and his family once handed down half a book, and it also talked about Feng Shui. Ah and stuff like that, I heard him talking a long time ago."
"Oh? Mr. Hu, do you also know Feng Shui?" When Chen Hao turned his eyes over, Da Jinya asked in surprise.
Hu Bayi was obviously helpless when the fat man carried him out so suddenly. However, facing Chen Hao's eyes, he did not hide much and said: "Yes! Our ancestors handed down half a book, which contains some information about this aspect." There are records, but... there is no record of the situation at this door today."
As soon as these words came out
No one said anything more.
But Chen Hao had some conjectures in his mind at this moment.
He raised the searchlight in his hand high and glanced at the area above his head. Suddenly, in front of the two large stone doors, there were many stones protruding from the top, as if they were pressed down by something.
Noticing this scene, he turned to look at Li Ergeng beside him and said, "Brother Ergeng, you said before that you saw the dragon. Where was it? Is it on the road we must pass?"
Li Ergeng was stunned for a moment by Chen Hao's sudden question, then he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, we have to pass that place when we want to go to the village."
"Then you can calculate the distance and passage we just walked. If converted into the flat road above, have we reached the place where you saw the dragon's tail before?" Chen Hao continued to ask.
"Shopkeeper, you mean...we are now under the place where Brother Ergeng saw the dragon, that is...under the big pit?" Da Jinya had a clear mind. , was the first to react and quickly confirmed.
Chen Hao nodded when he heard the sound.
Lao Hu and Fatty on the side looked confused.
At this moment, Li Ergeng also raised his eyebrows for a moment and said quickly: "I think about it! There is a big hole in this place, which was dug out by the dragon. If we calculate the position where we walked up and down in front and back, It has become the road above, and now it is right at the place where we cross the mountain, which is the place you mentioned, Boss Chen."
"That's right!"
Chen Hao smiled when he heard the sound, and then looked up at the door in front of him: "If I guessed correctly, we are in front of the big pit. However, we are in a mound tunnel. According to the previous terrain, we are now If you want to get out, you have to enter this door.”
"Isn't that simple!?" Upon hearing this, the fat man immediately rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Shopkeeper, please step back, I'll do it!"
As he spoke, he raised his hands and pressed them.
But the next second, Chen Hao patted his shoulder.
"Wait a moment!"
"It's better to be careful in a place like this. Don't touch the things on it at will. I have gloves in my bag. In addition, before touching, use your weapon to check whether there are any mechanisms around." Chen Hao's character is still relatively cautious. Although the gloves in the bag are meant to be worn when appraising treasures and cannot be invulnerable, they can at least isolate bacteria and viruses.
But in the current area, the surrounding area is completely dark, and the four corners of the two stone doors cannot be clearly seen at all, so in order to avoid casualties, it is better to be careful.
The fat man responded when he heard the words and took out the long knife from the baggage.
At this moment, Chen Hao also waved his hand to everyone, signaling everyone to retreat.
After everyone retreated a few meters, the fat man poked the door handle with the long knife in his hand, and then poked the door.
Fortunately, there were no mechanisms around the door. Chen Hao asked the fat man to insert the knife edge into the gap to check. After confirming that there was no problem, everyone came to the door again.
A group of people worked together and pushed open this thick stone door...
Buzz buzz~~~
The stone door opens
Huge clouds of smoke and dust spread out
Chen Hao asked everyone to put on scarves and used lighters to explore inside. After confirming that there was oxygen, he walked in with confidence...
