The depth of the Thief Cave is almost seven or eight meters, but it is not straight up and down.
Instead, they dug down diagonally. Because someone specially used gravel to fix the surrounding cave walls, the thieves made the cave very spacious.
Especially at the bottom, close to the entrance, there is enough room for three people with room to spare.
And when I went down, Alai was still digging on both sides, and I helped to get all the excavated soil to the ground.
Finally everyone came down and crowded in front of the so-called entrance.
I asked Uncle Yan what to do with those big-headed blood babies above?
Da Zhuang supported the old man with ghost hands and said, "Don't worry, those dead things won't be able to get in for a while."
The entrance to Alai is actually a stone wall with reliefs and many patterns on it.
The stone wall is very large and completely different from the tomb gates and inner walls of the corridor in the Central Plains area.
When I saw this stone wall, I thought, unless I use explosives, there is no way I can break this thing open.
"Fifth Master, we can't expand the cave wall anymore. It will easily collapse if we dig any further. We have nothing to support it."
Uncle Yan nodded, without saying anything, and stretched out his hand to fumble on the gray-white stone wall.
More than a minute later, Uncle Yan frowned and seemed to be in trouble.
Then he stood in front of this stone wall and said: "Miss Lengyue, I heard from Dachuan that you have some research on institutions. Come and take a look..."
After saying that, he gave up his position to Leng Yue.
Leng Yue was originally in the outermost position. She seemed to love cleanliness. When Uncle Yan called her, she was cleaning the blood on her body with the surrounding soil.
But as everyone knows, this way of cleaning up makes her more and more embarrassed, and finally she looks like a beggar.
Leng Yue put away her Waning Moon Scimitar and walked to the stone wall. She did exactly the same thing as Uncle Yan, but after touching around, she didn't seem to find anything unusual.
Finally Leng Yue drew attention to our feet.
Just when Leng Yue was staring at her feet, Alai said: "Miss Leng, there are rocks under your feet. There is no way to dig..."
Leng Yue didn't say anything, just took the engineering shovel from Alai's hand and started digging.
Qi Dachuan also came over to help at this time. While digging, he said: "It is better for everyone to believe that Miss Leng..."
Not long after digging back and forth, I heard a very dull sound.
Leng Yue didn't say anything, took the crowbar from Alai's side, held it with both hands, and started tapping it gently under his feet.
In the end, Leng Yue was seen exerting strength with her hands, and her face began to turn rosy.
Uncle Yan said loudly: "Everyone, be careful, it's empty down there..."
As soon as the words fell, Leng Yue had already raised the crowbar high and hit the dull place under our feet hard.
I didn't know how amazing Leng Yue's explosive power was, but there was a sound of cracking plates under my feet.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sudden jump under our feet, and the gravel and soil all fell down together with us.
I didn't have time to react too much, and my whole body was like a slide, falling down diagonally.
The descent lasted only about ten seconds, and finally his head hit a piece of wood hard.
Fortunately, it was just wood. If it had been stone, I might have gone directly to the Lord of Hell to report it.
I rubbed my stunned head and sat up, shouting to Uncle Yan to help them.
"I'm so stupid, I've been beaten to death."
A loud voice came from in front of me, followed by the light of a flashlight.
Uncle Yan was right next to me. When he saw me, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief and pulled me up from the ground.
Finally, Qi Dachuan and Leng Yue came over one after the other.
But Alai and the old man with ghost hands were nowhere to be seen.
When we went back to look for it, we found that the back road had been completely buried due to the loud noise just now.
Not only that, there seems to be another layer under our feet, because I saw a lot of cracks.
It's just that the entrance was buried by the landslide of earth and rocks, and the huge stone slab was now displaced by the backlog of earth and gravel.
"Fifth Master, Alai, Qi Master and others..."
Da Zhuang was hesitant to speak. Being buried alive in a place like this, it was basically impossible to save people.
Even a newbie like me who knows nothing knows this.
Without thinking, Uncle Yan turned around and said, "You need to have the consciousness to do this job. Since the entrance has been buried, let's move on and find another way to save them."
There are some things that I already know, but when I say them openly, I still feel a little different in my heart.
Uncle Yan's words were a bit too cheerful, because as far as I know, he is not such a cold-blooded person.
But seeing that no one said anything, it was hard for me to come forward and say too much nonsense.
After all, people have two sides, and their profession is like this. Maybe Uncle Yan is completely different in front of outsiders than in front of me.
I have no reason to kidnap him morally.
A group of five of us walked inside this corridor that resembled a corridor, but we didn't find any mechanism.
No wonder, everywhere here is made of the kind of mountain rocks outside, not even a single blue brick can be seen.
The air around seemed a little thin, and the atmosphere was quite depressing.
But the good news is that there should be no problem with air quality.
Because except for some mildewy smell, the air here seems to be better than outside.
Da Zhuang walked at the front, Uncle Yan and I walked side by side, while Leng Yue and Qi Dachuan walked at the back.
Everyone except me has a flashlight. This corridor is diagonally downward, there are no so-called steps, and there are many dragging marks on the ground.
We walked all the way down this corridor for about five or six minutes, when a black figure suddenly appeared in front of us.
When the incandescent light of the flashlight shone through, it could be seen that it was a large, square box.
The box was so large that it almost occupied the entire corridor. The distance between the top, bottom, and left and right was only about twenty centimeters.
"What's this?"
A group of us stood two or three meters away from the big box, and no one dared to get close easily.
Firstly, there is no escape route in this corridor, and secondly, this corridor is only as wide as two and a half people.
Once an accident occurs, there is no place to run.
But there was only one way in front of us, and it was blocked by the big box in front of us.
If we don't move or break this box, we won't be able to get through.
There was a stalemate like this for a while, then Uncle Yan turned his head and glanced at Dachuan behind him and said: "Dachuan, you and Da Zhuang go up and have a look...!"
Qi Dachuan nodded slightly, took out the pistol from his bag and handed it to Da Zhuang, but Da Zhuang waved it down.
He also said that he would use a machete to save trouble.
Then the two of them slowly approached the big wooden box, one holding a gun and the other holding a machete.
I stood still, not that I didn't want to go up and check.
It's because of the above things that I'm a little scared, although I don't want to admit that I'm a coward.
But the fear became more and more serious.
I don't know how I feel now, I only see Uncle Yan's hand pressing on my shoulder.
I looked up at him, but he didn't look at me.
Instead, he said in a deep voice: "If it hadn't been for an accident, I wouldn't have let you down at all."
"Now that we're down, don't lose your old Chen family. This is already the case before we even enter the main tomb."
"If you meet the real owner later, why don't you pee your pants?"
Uncle Yan's words were very powerful, completely opposite to his attitude when talking to Guishou on the ground just now.
However, I was also given a little bit of blood by Uncle Yan's words, and the fear in my heart was also diluted a little.
As for Leng Yue behind me, I glanced back and found that she had turned off the flashlight in her hand.
Leaning against the wall next to her, her body was at the junction of light and darkness, and it was impossible to see the exact expression on her face.
When I turned my head around again, the big man in front shouted at us.
"Fifth Master, this, this seems to be a coffin?"
Uncle Yan was stunned for a moment, looked down at me, and walked forward without thinking.
When I saw Uncle Yan passing by, I naturally didn't dare to neglect and followed him.
Leng Yue followed me slowly and came to this huge box.
After walking in, I realized that this box seemed to be somewhat different.
First of all, there are many lines on it, and these lines create many weird patterns.
I can't understand this pattern, it's a bit abstract, but if I have to describe it.
That should be a big-headed blood baby.
No!
To be precise, it should be an image of a big-headed figure sitting on his knees...!
