"Given how broken the stone pillars are outside, even if we set up some defensive measures inside, we will still be beaten into a hornet's nest.
Is it really necessary to continue digging in such a dangerous territory? "
Jiang Yingxue looked at the iron arrow that was deeply inserted into the stone wall, and had huge doubts about whether she could continue to explore along this path.
Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man, and the big reward is the ability to bear risks, not death.
The gang of desperadoes who drove Ivan's men before need to consider the overall intensity of the danger, let alone the bodyguards, a group that eats regular meals.
"Just like this cold current, this iron arrow shot from the wind channel is also a warning to tomb robbers.
But the more this is the case, the more it shows that there is a core secret underneath this path.
The brain is the most fragile tissue in the human body, and what protects it is also the strongest bone in the human body. "
Bai Ning's words have no problem at all on a theoretical level, and they also highlight his own character when facing danger.
However, not everyone is like Bai Ning, possessing an absolutely calm madness.
After hearing Bai Ning's judgment, most of the bodyguards on the scene showed an overall panic attitude.
Because everyone knows that the boss can hide in a safe place, and it will always be them, the workers, who do the dirty work.
No one has come forward to object now, just because Jiang Yingxue, the biggest boss, has not come out to express his position.
"So you've found a safe way to explore?"
Jiang Yingxue knew Bai Ning's adventurous nature and knew that he could not stop his madness. He could only hint to Bai Ning in this way and give some general psychological comfort to the bodyguards beside him.
Even if you want to send people as cannon fodder, you should paint a nicer picture instead of putting the danger in front of everyone with unquestionable nakedness.
In response, Bai Ning just glanced at Jiang Yingxue lightly, which made the situation on the field seem a bit delicate.
Jiang Yingxue believed that Bai Ning would not be so reckless in a critical moment, so she did not respond, as if she was quietly waiting for Bai Ning's follow-up answer.
"The traps here are indeed a huge problem, but for a trap waiting for you, the best way is to bypass it.
Sending people down to dig into the stone wall or the ground may trigger the bed crossbow mechanism near the wind duct, so we will go around from the side.
Have someone temporarily seal the entrance to the cave, and start digging down from the tomb passage area next to it. "
After waiting for a long time, Bai Ning's response was unexpectedly like this.
This answer seems to reasonably avoid the immediate risks, but it makes the originally bright future become murky and unclear.
It has been confirmed before that the structure next to the tomb passage is probably a whole rock formation.
If you want to dig holes into rock formations, there is actually no skill at all, and it is also the most time-consuming and labor-intensive method.
If there is a slight deviation in the direction, or they are misled by the structure of the tomb, the tomb passage they built will be in vain.
Is it a stupid way to do it as a last resort?
This can be regarded as a helpless move in a desperate situation, and perhaps the only antidote to such a crisis-ridden area.
Still full of doubts in her heart, Jiang Yingxue waved her hand and signaled the staff to start following Bai Ning's instructions.
Not long after, the ground in the tomb passage area was opened, revealing the sand layer buried underneath.
This was one of the few hopes. As the sand was cleared away and the irregular rocky ground was exposed, everyone's confidence was shattered.
Judging from the overall structure of the current local area, the previous sand was used to fill the corner spaces. The entire mausoleum should be built on a funnel-shaped tunnel that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom.
"What, does it really need to be excavated?"
Although the surface rock here is not too hard, it is quite difficult to excavate it with an oil drill. Perhaps they have been working here for half a year and have not really reached the core area of the tomb.
"Dig along the base of the wall. There is no need to harden the rock layer. We only need to clear the area where the stone strips exist to create a tunnel."
Bai Ning's response was simple, but it was still a chore. What is the essential difference between stone bars and stones?
What's more, the quality of these stone bars is much harder than the surface rocks, which to some extent can be regarded as increasing the intensity of everyone's work.
If there is any advantage to this behavior, it is that it will not deviate too far from the tomb.
Sighing softly, Jiang Yingxue waved her hand to signal everyone to speed up the excavation. Suddenly, there was a loud clanging sound in the tomb chamber, which made people feel numb and irritable.
After finally digging into the lower space, a burst of cold air suddenly roared in, which instantly alerted everyone who was sweating profusely.
Working in the wind is really not what people do.
Under the stimulation of money, everyone could only grit their teeth and continue working. Several more stone strips were moved away, and a dark space appeared where the rock layer should have been.
Cold air rushed into this space, stirring up a thick layer of ice crystal fog that blocked everyone's sight.
This unexpected surprise made Bai Ning stunned for a moment. The internal structure of this mausoleum was really unpredictable and somewhat inexplicable.
However, various counter-intuitive and counter-intuitive designs also represent absolute calculation and danger.
If Bai Ning had taken the risk to dig along the possible rock layers before, he would have immediately entered the hidden tomb.
What kind of surprises are waiting in this tomb? It’s scary even without even thinking about it.
Continuing to dig along this wall, as the two secret rooms were completely connected, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly flashed in Bai Ning's heart.
Not out of an intuition, but based on an overall prediction of the current sophisticated trap.
According to the previous overall appearance, the iron arrow can penetrate deeply into the wall, which proves the fragility of the wall from one side.
If Bai Ning wants to find a direction to continue digging, this wall will definitely be his first choice.
Because of this, shooting arrows in the wind tunnel and inducing the unlucky thieves to dig into the fragile walls is a series of tricks.
According to this basic speculation, this wall that was supposed to be a trap triggering mechanism has now been stepped on less than half, but it still has not triggered any danger.
This phenomenon that is inconsistent with the established expectations either shows that Bai Ning's guess is wrong, or that a big crisis is gradually brewing.
After taking a look at the still smoke-filled scene in the tomb next door, Bai Ning stopped the current excavation work.
"Why, do you think there's something wrong with the ice fog here?"
Jiang Yingxue was also very confused about the lingering ice crystal mist in the secret room next door.
It stands to reason that there is only one wall between the two tombs. Even if there is a temperature difference, it will not be too different. After such a long period of air circulation, the cold air has already filled the next tomb.
But the current situation is filled with ice and fog, as if a stream of warm and humid air is continuously pouring out from the tomb next door.
This is a guess, but there is no air turbulence in the air flow area, so Jiang Yingxue is not too sure.
"If the tomb next door is sealed, the backflow of air will definitely disperse the ice mist.
Now this ice mist is too stable, as if some mechanism is deliberately guiding the flow of gas in the chamber to form a stable fog area in this area.
Our goal is to find a breakthrough from the side. Although this obstacle is simple, it is effective.
In addition, no one knows what traps will exist behind the ice fog. If you want to pass through, you must risk your life. "
Bai Ning's speculation on the mechanism of ice fog made Jiang Yingxue fall into silence.
The entire mausoleum is like an interlocking war fortress. Everywhere is dangerous and every place is a struggle for life.
"Use directional blasting to destroy this wall."
In Jiang Yingxue's silence, Bai Ning gave his solution.
The first floor of the tomb has just been excavated, and such violent methods of destruction have already begun, which can only give people a sense of embarrassment.
Furthermore, explosive blasting is a last resort. If we want to destroy the structure of the mausoleum now, it may cause major hidden dangers for subsequent excavation and exploration.
After staring at Bai Ning's cold side face for a second, Jiang Yingxue waved her hand helplessly, signaling the relevant personnel to prepare for the blasting.
Jiang Yingxue once praised Bai Ning as a lucky gambler. At this critical moment of dilemma, she was willing to believe in Bai Ning's gambling luck.
Although there are some concerns in my heart, they still cannot be completely dispelled.
More than half an hour later, a ring of directional blasting explosives was placed. Everyone went to the outermost stone forest area and pressed the detonation button. There was a series of dull explosions, followed by a burst of shaking. A series of explosions.
There is no doubt that the relevant mechanisms in the tomb have been triggered, and a large number of flying crossbow arrows are wreaking havoc on the areas they can reach.
When the movement is the loudest, it even gives people the illusion that the tomb will collapse at any time.
After all the dust settled, the early exploration personnel took the lead to confirm the situation. Liu Cheng stretched his neck to see what was going on in advance, but the heavy dust made it impossible for him to return.
Judging from the irregular movement of the dust, the previous air duct should have been destroyed.
A few minutes later, the people who went down to explore the path reported back through the intercom that the tomb below was filled with iron arrows. The wall of the previous air duct had been completely destroyed, revealing a dense crossbow array behind it. In the next room, There are also a large number of damaged bed crossbows.
In this round of passionate exchange, anyone involved will be instantly annihilated.
When Bai Ning and others saw it with their own eyes, the tragedy at the scene was even more cruel than expected.
Just as Bai Ning had expected, once they dug along the direction of the stone wall, they would be beaten into a pile of rotten flesh by the crossbows in the two tombs.
