Standing on the edge of the cistern, Liu 18 went around to the back of the pool and pulled out the wooden plug from the pool outlet.

After a few minutes, the water in the cistern was cleaned, leaving only a layer of yellow sand at the bottom of the tank.

Liu 18 and Soranta gently turned over and entered the pool, and after picking up the yellow sand at the bottom with their hands, they saw a boxy wooden door underneath.

When the planks were uncovered, a layer of waterproof oiled paper was laid underneath, and underneath was a slightly smaller square iron lid.

"Canopy!"

Liu 18 and Soranta pulled together, and the iron lid opened, revealing a stone staircase carved out by man.

Looking at the deep and bottomless staircase, Soranta couldn't help but feel an inexplicable chill all over her body......

"Smack!"

Liu 18 lit the three torches he carried with him, handed one to Soranta, and then greeted Lao Hei standing on the cistern:

"Old black, come down!"

Waiting for Lao Hei to jump to the bottom of the pool, Liu Shibai took out a rope and tied a slightly smaller torch to Lao Hei's back.

After doing all this, Liu Shibai took out two cigarettes, handed one to Soranta, lit one himself, took two puffs and said softly:

"Let's go down, Lao Hei will take the lead and explore the way. ”

————————

Two people and one dog, lit torches and carefully descended the stone stairs less than ten meters to the bottom.

Liu Shibayang looked around with a torch and found that this place was a natural karst cave with an area of less than several hundred square meters, and the ground and the stone walls on all sides were very wet.

"Wow!"

At this time, a slight yin wind came, and the old black, who had been standing quietly after coming down, ran directly into the darkness.

"Go! ”

Soranta finally got down and put on the iron cover with his backhand, and before Soranta could stand firm, Liu Shibai pulled Soranta in a low voice and chased after Lao Hei.

Because Lao Hei also had a torch tied to his body, he could see clearly along the road, and when he walked to the end of the cave, he saw a pitch-black road with a length, width and height that was only for two people to walk in parallel.

Ten meters not far from the road, Lao Hei stood quietly and waited, not running far......

"Boss, it's so oozing, I haven't felt like this in a long time. ”

Soranta looked around in horror as she followed behind Liu Shiba.

"Shhhh......h Follow Lao Hei forward. ”

Liu Shibai frowned when he heard this, and said in a low voice.

Soranta trembled and replied:

"What does it mean that yin qi is heavy?"

As soon as the torch was lit, Liu Eighteen suddenly turned around, a strange brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Soranta and said lightly:

"It's been a long time since I've encountered something so interesting, and I've almost forgotten that I'm a grave robber, haha!

Yin Qi is heavy, which means that many people have died in this place......"

"A lot of dead people, ...... who sell anointing"

Soranta trembled with fright, feeling that her skills had been useless since she came down, and the sniper rifle she was carrying on her back seemed to have become a big burden.

The road is very dark and long, as if it is slightly inclined downward, and after the two of them and a dog quietly walked forward for about two hundred meters, their eyes suddenly opened up!

What appeared in Liu Eighteen's eyes was a huge karst cave, how big it was Liu Eighteen could not describe, at least there were thousands of square meters.

Soranta raised the torch above his head, as if he couldn't see the dome, and after following the old black around, Liu Shibai was surprised to find that on the stone walls around the cave, there were inlaid humanoid sculptures every few hundred meters.

These stone sculptures are of various shapes, without exception, all of them are ancient men in armor, and each statue holds a variety of weapons to come to life and be extraordinary.

"These sculptures are works of art, amazing. ”

Soranta followed behind Liu Shiba, her eyes widening and she exclaimed.

Liu Shibai stood in place, but there was a trace of strangeness in his heart, and he turned his head and hissed at Soranta:

"Soranta, you walk around this place and count how many statues there are. ”

"I, me?"

Soranta's heart trembled, holding the torch to look around the pitch black, and then looking at Liu Shiba's smiling face that seemed to be a little green under the torch light, and couldn't help but tremble.

"Head, head, why is your face green, green?"

Finally unable to take it anymore, Soranta asked in a low voice.

"Huh?"

Liu Shibai smiled strangely when he heard this:

"Your face, I don't think it's green, it's okay, it means that this place is very phosphorus-rich.

When the torch burns, it emits a little bit of green light, and it doesn't matter! as long as there is green phosphorus, it means that there are only dead people down there.

If there is no green phosphorus, it is difficult to say, which means that there are often people in and out of this place, and only living people ......"

As if frightened, Soranta swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hesitated:

"Ah, boss, let's go out? You can improve your strength in the small black building outside, there is no need to come down in the dark, or let's come down again during the day?"

Liu 18 couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Are you sick in the brain? In this environment, day and night, there is no difference, you hurry up and count how many statues there are, if you are afraid, let Lao Hei follow you, speed!"

Watching the trembling Soranta drag Lao Hei away in the dark cave, Liu Shibai turned his head, and looked at a sculpture on the stone wall in front of him in the light of the torch.

The sculpture in front of Liu 18 is a male general, about two meters high, the material is not clear, but the facial contour is rarely carved very exquisitely, and the face is cut into a faint oblique plane.

In addition to the exquisite carving, this military commander also outlines the plump lines of the eyes, eyebrows, nose bridge, ears and other parts of the body with black color, and the armor drags the ground and also applies red, black, brown and other colored stripes.

Then, Liu 18 quickly ran to the second statue hundreds of meters away to take a closer look, and found that this one was the same as the previous sculpture, with more beards and decorations such as a mustache, belt, placket, sleeves, and skirt.

However, these two statues are definitely not ordinary stone sculptures, because they both have an extremely rare feature, which is not found in those statues that Liu Shibai has seen before.

"Interesting!"

Looking at it, Liu Shibai couldn't help but touch his chin and smile slightly, he found that the two sculptures had one thing in common.

Just as he was thinking, there was the sound of eager footsteps behind him, and Soranta walked over quickly, panting and sweating profusely:

"Boss, I went around and there were eight statues...... Whew...... Eight...... Whew!"

Liu Shiba's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded:

"It's only been a few minutes, and you've counted? Each sculpture is at least a hundred meters apart?

The eight sculptures are at least 800 meters close to a kilometer, and you even told me that you could count them in less than five minutes......

Why are you still holding torches? The world champion among the 100-meter track and field athletes doesn't have this speed?"

"Whew!"

Soranta gasped and smiled bitterly:

Actually, about the same, a 100-meter athlete has to run for more than ten seconds. Eight, 800 meters also have to run for two minutes, I'm much slower......"
