Yue Guanchao saw him crawling in until only his legs and feet were left, so he pulled up a hemp rope and tied it to his ankles. It was not until he saw the ten-meter rope slowly disappearing into the cave entrance that he followed the rope and jumped off the fairy mountain back to the wooden boat.

"Yue Guanchao, the water surface is only five meters away from the top of the tomb. If the tomb wall is really blown open, it will be difficult for us not to be hit by the debris."

Song Siyuan looked at the entrance of the cave that was getting closer and closer to them, and raised her concerns. Once the entrance of the cave was bombed, the debris and bricks flying everywhere would be a big problem.

"If it doesn't work, just run away~"

Yue Guanchao looked into the distance, and it was not impossible to retreat ten meters.

Song Siyuan shook her head at him: "We can't predict the distance at which the gravel will fly. Even if we hide on the opposite wall, we will still be in danger. If I had to choose, I would choose underwater."

"Underwater?"

"Yes." Song Siyuan paused and continued to explain to him: "With the unloading force of the water, the damage to us will be much less once the stone enters the water, but the key is how long we can hold our breath. There are two old people here."

"Young students, you don't have to worry about me. I live on water, Uncle Yu. There's no reason to be afraid of water. It's okay to hold your breath for a while. As for Brother Cat?"

Yu Bo looked at Mao Chunyan, and the old man sighed: "In this case, I have to hold it in, this is the only chance to survive, and you can't let it happen because of me."

"Okay, when Ma Chang gives us the signal, we will immediately enter the water and hide under the wooden planks. We can defend ourselves for a while."

After solving the problem of the two elderly people, it was much easier for Geda and Yue Erpao. Even if they didn't know how to swim, they could hold on for a few minutes with their strong bodies. They made up their minds and stared at the red rope at the entrance of the hole, waiting for the red rope to come out. The moment the rope trembled and swung wildly, several people took a deep breath, put down the bamboo baskets of their backpacks that could not get wet, and jumped off the board to hide under the water.

The underground spring is already cold. The moment you enter the water, a biting cold feeling penetrates into your pores. It is so cold that people get goosebumps under the water.

The only sound left in Yue Guanchao's ears was the buzzing of the water. He adjusted to the stinging eyes and looked around. Most of his companions were like him, grabbing the rope knots under the board and falling firmly under the board.

He looked towards the water. They were only a few meters away from the top of the tomb. At their feet was the tomb that was a hundred meters deep. As he looked down, he could even see the mirror palace pavilions surrounded by silver ribbons, but the light was really dim. , there seems to be a ghost lurking in the darkness, always vague and unclear.

Boom...bang~

Just as he was about to continue observing, there was a roar and vibration above his head. The sound was so loud that even people in the water could feel the sound coming from it, and their ears felt like needles pricking their brains.

Then, more intensive splashing sounds echoed around him. He suppressed his panic and looked around. Many gravel bricks fell from the water, exploding countless splashes, and a string of bubbles fell into the depths.

When the gravel fell completely and there was no more splashing water around them, they rushed out of the water in one breath, like river fish taking a big breath on a rainy day.

"Cough cough cough!!"

After they jumped on the board, Mr. Cat squatted on the ground and kept coughing. He coughed up the water completely with his throat, and then he felt better: "Oh~ I don't want to go into the water again in my life. I was holding it in well at first, but when I came out, I got distracted and drank several mouthfuls of dirty water."

"Mr. Cat, this is not dirty water. There are corpses in the tomb. It can be regarded as broth after all. I heard that drinking corpses that are thousands of years old can prolong your life."

Seeing that everyone was calm and unruly, Yue Guanchao started to talk again. When Mr. Cat heard this, he had already stopped coughing, but he slapped again: "Don't be disgusted with me. What will happen if I want to spread my famous name in this life?" good."

"Okay, okay, Brother Cat, if you don't tell me and I won't tell you, who among the younger generation will talk about tomb robbing in the streets."

While they were talking and joking, Ma Chang's voice came from the entrance of the cave. Yue Guanchao and the others looked above their heads. Ma Chang was standing by the entrance of the cave with a flashlight.

Behind him was a cave the size of the mouth of a water tank that had been blown out. This showed that the method of placing explosives in the cave was completely successful.

"Ma Chang, the cave is not blocked?"

Yue Guanchao asked Xiang Ma Chang in a loud voice.

"No, benefactor, this hole is not a solid brick wall. There is a lot of quicksand poured into the bricks. Once the brick wall is opened, the quicksand will slip away in just a blink of an eye. Miss Song guessed it right. Answer Yin Zun Leaving myself a way out, I cleared the broken bricks along the entrance of the hole and opened the entrance."

"Hurry up and take a look outside~"

Ma Chang's words preceded Yue Guanchao, who also understood that the entrance to the cave had been opened, and began to let everyone climb on the ropes to the vicinity of the cave. Under his protection, Yu Bo, Mao Ye, Song Siyuan, and Yue Erpao gradually climbed up the cave and were pulled up by Geda. .

After a while, Yue Guanchao was the only one left on the water. He climbed up the rope and looked behind him. The water had reached the bottom of the pavilion, and he was only less than three meters away from the cave.

Yue Guanchao took another look at the endless underground flood, climbed into the cave and disappeared into the dark entrance!
