Chapter 259 Entering the Tomb (continued)


Chapter 259: Entering the Tomb (continued)

In line with the principle of safety first, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan started to expand around this point.

What Hu Bayi originally thought was to directly choose a direction and go around the side wall of the tomb to find a way to get in.

But then he thought about it and felt that instead of blind selection like this, it would be better to directly expand the location so that a few more people can help.

After all, they are not professional robbers, so Chen Ziyan and the others can help.

Chen Ziyan has no objection to this, and others have no objection even more, because even if they go to help, it is Chen Ziyan and Wushuang Ghost.

As a patient, Da Jinya will naturally not let him do anything. As for Ding Sitian, the only woman in the team, he will not let her do anything easily, otherwise it will appear that the men are too useless. .

After the staff doubled, especially after the powerful player Wushuanggui was added, the speed of excavation was accelerated, and it didn’t take long to create a space of more than ten square meters.

“This tomb is bigger than we thought!” Hu Bayi put down the engineering shovel in his hand and wiped his sweat.

They have dug out such a large space, but there is no sign of touching the edge.

Wang Kaixuan was already sweating profusely, and he gasped and said, "Why don't you, Old Hu, go look at the stars again."

It's unclear how long it will take to continue, so he wanted Hu Bayi to confirm again. It's better to stop the loss in time.

Hu Bayi couldn't hear the subtext of this guy. He glanced at him and said, "It's useless to look at him a few times. Let's just dig here."

Nothing just now. Before starting, Hu Bayi had verified it several times. This is the core position, but this core is a bit big.

"Master Chen, what do you think?" Seeing that Hu Bayi did not adopt his opinion, Wang Kaixuan turned his attention to Chen Ziyan next to him.

Chen Ziyan was looking at the space they dug out, wondering if the Qixing Lu Palace was under his feet. Hearing Wang Kaixuan's words, he replied casually: "I think we can try to go down directly from here."

He felt that instead of digging like this, it was better to take some risks and try to crack the mechanism. Anyway, Wushuang Ghost was here, and the acid couldn't do anything to him.

Hu Bayi's first reaction was to object: "Mr. Chen, if we start from here, the risk is too great. If it accidentally causes a collapse, we may be no different from falling into a sulfuric acid pool."

If you cracked it previously, the possible danger was splashing, but now it is not that simple.

Hu Bayi, in particular, does not have deep knowledge in government agencies, so he does not want to take this risk.

He can crack most of the mechanisms, but the cracking methods are also very particular, and most of his methods are of a relatively blunt type.

When Chen Ziyan heard what he said, he said: "Then keep digging. Since you have seen something, it proves that you have found the right place."

As for Wang Kaixuan's proposal, He didn't even think about it.

If you don’t want to leave this core position, is it possible to look for the edge area?

"Gentlemen, come up quickly!" At this moment, Big Gold Tooth's shout suddenly came from above.

Chen Ziyan raised his head and asked: "Old Jin, what's the matter?"

"We have a new discovery! A major discovery!" Da Jinya replied.

After receiving this response, Chen Ziyan was a little curious.

He said to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan: "Come on, let's go up and have a look!"

He knew that although Da Jinya usually likes to show off his words, he is still very reliable in serious matters. Damn it, since I said this, then Ba Cheng has really discovered something.

Several people were immediately unambiguous and quickly came outside along the specially left earth steps.

As soon as Chen Ziyan showed his head, Da Jinya said quickly: "Master Chen, come here!"

As he spoke, he walked not far away.

Where he was going, Ding Sitian was squatting there looking at something.

Chen Ziyan didn't waste any time and followed directly behind Da Jinya.

When she got closer, she discovered that there was a fist-sized hole in front of Ding Sitian, and she was shining a flashlight into it.

"What have you found?" Chen Ziyan asked.

The hole was too small, and there were differences between men and women, so he did not go directly to it.

Ding Sitian retracted her gaze and said: "There is a very wide space below. The specific area cannot be estimated, but there should be some kind of plant growing directly below. It looks like... A tree."

She paused slightly after that because she remembered the Hydra Cypress that Chen Ziyan said.

This was also the reason why she didn't rashly expand the hole. Who knew if a vine would suddenly protrude from it.

"Underground space? Hydra Cypress? Let me take a look!" Hu Bayi, who was following Chen Ziyan, heard this and immediately came to Ding Sitian's side, took the flashlight and looked inside.

Compared to Chen Ziyan, he didn't take it into consideration that much.

While Hu Bayi was observing, Wang Kaixuan approached Chen Ziyan and asked, "Mr. Chen, do you think this is the same as the time we were in Yerengou?"

This familiar scene reminded him of the memory of the Savage Valley. Although it cannot be said to be exactly the same, there is nothing wrong with saying that it is similar.

Chen Ziyan shook his head: "No."

How could it be the same? Yerenggou was just a general's tomb, and if my guess is correct, he started out as a prince, not to mention that he was still King Mu of Zhou. The imperial mausoleum.

Even if the tombs in the Western Zhou Dynasty were not so luxurious, they are still beyond the comparison of a general's tomb.

Wang Kaixuan wanted to ask something more, but Chen Ziyan did not give him this chance and asked: "Lao Hu, have you made any new discoveries?"

He was not in a hurry to go by himself. Look, the size of the cave entrance in front of you is here, and the results are similar for everyone, so you can get the answer you want by asking Hu Bayi directly.

"It's the same as Sitian said." Hu Bayi thought for a while and said, "If the plant down here is not Hydra cypress, it should be a natural underground cave."

He There are no artificial traces below, so there is such a guess.

"Really? We'll find out if we expand the entrance of the cave." Chen Ziyan made a decision immediately.

In this situation where they can advance, attack, retreat or defend, even if there is Hydra Cypress below, it will not cause much trouble to them.

I really can't handle it, just follow the entrance of the cave. This is not a soft sand layer, and the Hydra Cypress is not able to come and go freely yet.

"Then expand it a bit and go in and have a look." Hu Bayi also thought this was a good idea.

In other words, this is the only way they have in front of them. Is it possible that they can just give up?

After finishing speaking, he directly used the engineer shovel in his hand to expand along the entrance of the hole.

The hole looks very short, but in fact the surrounding soil is still very thick, otherwise so many of them would have fallen into it long ago.

However, the thickness of the soil did not have any impact on the excavation work. Hu Bayi did not use anyone else's help and made a hole about half a meter in diameter in a few clicks.

Although Wang Kaixuan and Wushuang Ghost cannot pass through this wide hole, it is basically no problem for others. More importantly, with such a hole, their advantage of being able to move forward and retreat freely is not affected.

“Fat man, fix the rope!” After completing the expansion work, Hu Bayi directly took out a bundle of climbing ropes from his backpack, tied one end around his waist, and tied the other end to his waist. One end was thrown to Wang Kaixuan.

Needless to say, Wang Kaixuan had a tacit understanding with him. Hu Bayi was already ready before he finished speaking.

Hu Bayi did not hesitate when he saw this, and entered directly from the entrance of the cave.

Chen Ziyan asked Wushuanggui and Wang Kaixuan to grab the rope together, while he came to the entrance of the cave and looked down.

This is the first time he has seen the situation inside. Just like what Hu Bayi and the others said before, there is a very wide space below, and directly below the entrance of the hole is a very thick stone. Tree.

However, from their angle, they could only see the top of the tree, not the height and thickness of the tree.

But the moment Chen Ziyan saw this tree, he had already concluded that it was the Hydra Cypress.

Peek into a corner and get the whole picture.

The slender top alone is already so thick, and the condition of the tree god can already be imagined.

In this area, apart from the Hydra Cypress in the Lu Palace, there is no other tree with such a scale.

Hu Bayi didn't hang in the air for long. After falling about three meters, he had already landed on the tree.

Even the top position is enough for him to stand firmly.

Standing on the branch and looking down for a while, Hu Bayi then raised his head and said: "There are at least dozens of meters below."

The flashlight light was obstructed by the branches, so it could not directly reach the bottom, but through the visible area, Hu Bayi made this inference.

After Chen Ziyan heard what he said, he said to the people around him: "You guys wait here first, let's go down to explore the way!"

Wang Kaixuan said quickly: "Mr. Chen , How about I go with Lao Hu, and you, the old man, should stay up there and take charge."

He knew that they had to keep people up there, so if Chen Ziyan went down, he wouldn't be able to follow him, so he thought. You have to fight for it.

Chen Ziyan glanced at Wang Kaixuan and did not force him: "Okay, then you go, fat man, but you must pay attention to safety."

Then he took the rope and ordered Wushuang Ghost: "Wushuang, you also follow down and protect them."

It is one thing to let Wang Kaixuan go, but Wushuang Ghost still has to follow.

Wang Kaixuan had the intention to let the Wushuang Ghost stay up there, but he didn't wait for the words to come out.

Big Jinya next to him said weakly: "Master Chen, Fatty and Brother Wushuang, I'm afraid they won't be able to get down."

Hearing Big Jinya After saying this, several people remembered that there was no way for them to pass through Hu Bayi's expanded hole.

If Wang Kaixuan wanted to continue, he would have to expand again, but this would not be safe.

Ding Sitian suddenly said: "How about I go."

But Chen Ziyan immediately refused: "You are thoughtful, and you can better look after them and explore the way if you stay up there. Leave the matter to me and Lao Hu."

His words were not polite, but there was another reason why he didn't say it, and that was that if Wushuang Gui couldn't go down, he really didn't feel comfortable letting a few people go down.

I don’t know if anything will happen in this place, so it would be safer for him to go alone.

Chen Ziyan didn't say much. After saying hello, he grabbed Hu Bayi's rope and swung down.

It is said that it is swinging down, but in fact it is just sliding down. Hu Bayi is only a little away from the entrance of the cave at this time, and he has reached it in a few seconds.

“Let’s go.”

After landing next to Hu Bayi, Chen Ziyan fixed the flashlight on his body, picked up his weapon and jumped towards the branches below.

Hu Bayi was also unambiguous. He untied the rope on his body and followed closely with an engineering shovel.

The two people were like vigorous apes, jumping and jumping on the huge tree, descending at a steady frequency.

The further down, the more Chen Ziyan's heart beats.

Because he found that the height of this Hydra cypress was a bit beyond his imagination.

Although the specific scale of this thing was not mentioned in the original plot, he felt that it would be good if it was half the size.

Now they have descended almost fifty meters, but they still can't see the ground, which is enough to explain everything.

It felt like even if we dropped another fifty meters, we might not be able to reach the bottom.

But this was completely different from what he knew. The Qixing Lu Palace in the original plot was far from having such depth.

After descending for another ten meters, Hu Bayi looked down and asked Chen Ziyan: "Master Chen, this place is probably very dangerous!"

Although it was calm along the way, Not even a bug appeared, but there was an indescribable feeling of fear in his heart.

It was as if they were being targeted by something extremely terrifying, and this feeling became stronger as they went deeper.

Although Hu Bayi claimed not to believe this, he still believed it in his heart. Especially after experiencing so many strange things over the years, it was difficult for him not to believe that there were indeed some things in this world that were difficult to explain scientifically.

Especially what happened in Longling not long ago. Even people from three thousand years ago may still be alive. So what else is impossible to happen? It’s gone.

Although they still look the same as before, these things have inevitably affected several people.

Maybe only Chen Ziyan, who knew the inside story in advance, was better off.

"Look further down. If there is danger, we will retreat." Chen Ziyan said in a deep voice.

We have already come this far, and he will not be willing to give up halfway now, so even if there is danger down there, he has to see it with his own eyes.

And Chen Ziyan had expected this even before he came down.

If it is what he knows, then there are four dangers here, one is a corpse turtle, one is a blood corpse, one is a blue-eyed fox corpse, and the other is the hydra cypress under your feet.

However, the possibility of King Zhou Mu is not ruled out, but the premise is that the other party is still alive.

The most threatening thing to them is actually the Corpse Turtle, which seems to be the easiest to deal with, because sometimes the numbers are really overwhelming.

But this is for other people, but Chen Ziyan happens to have a way to deal with this kind of creature.

So the risk is greatly reduced, which is also one of the guarantees for him to come down.
