Chapter 173: Caving
An hour later, Ji Wushuang returned.
According to the information she overheard, Wang Quan made two plans:
One is to start overnight, if they can open the secret door, they will immediately send someone in to see, if there is no special situation, they will immediately attack us, and if there is an accident, they will let us go to help them take the lead!
The second is that if they can't open the secret door, they will wait until after dawn to ask us for help, and then, regardless of the situation inside, they will ask us to open the way ahead.
So, for a short time, they won't attack us for the time being.
Except for me, Hong Kaiyuan and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But I was not worried at all, judging from the situation described on the mural, it is estimated that even the five of us may not be able to open the secret doorββ because the number of people who opened the door on the mural is not one hundred but ninety, and the huge copper ring alone, if it were not for the heavy secret door, it would not have been so thick at all!
Therefore, I slept quite soundly this night, and only Ji Wushuang and Gu Xin were taking turns to be on guard.
Sure enough, when I woke up in the morning, I heard Gu Xin's report: these people tossed all night!
After eating something casually, we began to pack up, and as soon as we finished packing, we saw Wang Quan walking leisurely.
"What, you're not with us?" Wang Quan said to Hong Kaiyuan with a smile.
"We're engaged in biotechnology, and we're not interested in things like underground tunnels, so we still don't accompany us!" Hong Kaiyuan also replied with a smile.
"The doctor's words are wrong, maybe there will be some unknown creature under the secret door!" Wang Quan pretended to be mysterious. "Why bother to go far?"
"That's right, but the secret door shouldn't be light, we may not be able to open it!" Hong Kaiyuan seemed to hesitate.
Seeing that Hong Kaiyuan was relieved, Wang Quan immediately said again: "There are so many of us, how can we know if we don't try?"
"Fatty, why don't we try it?" Wen Jing also began to ask Hong Kaiyuan's opinion.
After thinking for a while, Hong Kaiyuan finally nodded: "Okay." β
By the time we passed, there were already people gathered next to the secret room, and someone had already twisted dozens of climbing ropes into a strand and put them in the copper ring, and they were about to open the secret door!
"You see, we're all ready. Wang Quan pointed to the rope and smiled.
"Then what are you waiting for, do it!" Hong Kaiyuan put down the backpack in his hand, and Wen Jing and I followed suit.
I don't know where Wang Quan got two extremely thick iron rods, which have been inserted into the buckle at the other end of the rope, the iron rods are very long, almost one meter six or seven, so that the effect is much better than pulling the rope directly with his hands - although it is not enough for all people to hold the iron rods.
Under the command of Wang Quan, some of the people held the iron rod, and some directly held the rope, shouting the trumpet and began to pull the rope.
I pulled it six times in a row, all of which ended in failure.
So, after Wang Quan explained to everyone how to exert his strength on the rope, he began his seventh attempt!
Two, three, come on, hey......
As soon as the strength of the rope was released, we knew that the secret door had been opened!
Everyone took the opportunity to have another burst of afterburner, and the secret door finally turned over, and when they went down, they realized that there was a huge hinge hidden at the other end of the secret door!
Seeing this, I was also secretly glad in my heart: if it weren't for this hinge, even if there were twice as many people, they might not be able to open this huge door! Of course, if only a few of us came, we would probably not be able to do anything but look at the door and sigh!
"You say, could this be the tomb of a prince?" said the crowd.
"Haha, we really didn't come in vain this time!"
"Of course, with this big discovery, everyone's year-end bonus will be settled!"
ββ¦β¦β
Everyone was babbling and exclaiming, and they didn't seem to be off topic. But unfortunately, no matter how much they pretend, they can't pretend to be as good as professionals.
"Why don't we all go in and have a look?" Hong Kaiyuan asked Wang Quandao with a smile.
"There are so many people, don't go down together, if you break the things inside, the sin will be great!" Wang Quanzheng said.
"Well, just go to a few people!" Wen Jing also nodded.
"Originally, it was inconvenient for you to enter this place, but considering that everyone has contributed, you can go in and have a look, please pay attention to the cultural relics inside!" Ding Jun on the side suddenly interjected.
"It's not a tomb!" Hong Kaiyuan snorted: "Otherwise, let's go together, just go with a few fewer people!"
"Five of you, five of us, fair?!" Wang Quan smiled again. "Ding Jun, you take four people down. β
Without getting tired of talking, we turned around and took our suits, and together with the four people led by Ding Jun, we entered the secret passage.
Going down from the secret door is a long staircase.
The length of the staircase is almost beyond my comprehension: it is more than a kilometer long, and there are almost 9,000 steps!
If each step is calculated by 20 centimeters, the difference of the entire step is at least more than 2 kilometers!!
That is, after walking these steps, we are already two kilometers underground.
The passage that appears at the end of the stairs is exactly the same as our situation in the Gonggong Rockββ the passage is directly excavated from the rock mass, and there is no trace left by any tools, it is square, and the size and shape are exactly the same!
In order to show that we had never seen the world, we pretended to be shocked by the magnificent project in front of us, and we all sighed.
After that, Ding Jun found all kinds of reasons and left them behind.
We all pretended not to know, and the group continued to walk deeper into the passage.
After walking for almost two and a half hours, the passage still had not yet reached the end, like a bottomless pit!
We didn't think so, but that Ding Jun finally couldn't hold his breath anymore and muttered, "What kind of place is this, it's not the end of it after walking for so long?!"
"Since it is a passage, the other end of it must be connected somewhere!" Hong Kaiyuan said: "Anyway, we have already come, and it is nothing to walk more! Although we are not peers, the most important thing in studying is a rigorous attitude and lasting patience! Let's go!"
"I guess Professor Wang, they're in a hurry, why don't you send someone back to say something?" Ding Jun said.
"It's okay, you can arrange it yourself. Hong Kaiyuan didn't care.
At that moment, Ding Jun immediately arranged for two people to return.
The crowd moved on.
Half an hour later, the passage finally came to an end, but beyond the exit was a huge space, and after walking around, I found that this space had an area of at least five or six thousand square meters, and the height was more than ten meters!
Except for the cave wall directly opposite the passage, which is covered with large and small holes, there is not even a gap on the other sides!
"Hold the grass, where should I go now, so many passages?" Hong Kaiyuan cursed.
"If it doesn't work, let's wait for Professor Wang to come!" As soon as Ding Jun opened his mouth, it proved that my inference last night was not wrong, Liu Wenzheng really didn't know the situation of the passage here.
"It's okay, these passages are not like the ones we just walked through, they all seem to be natural, in case you get lost in them, it will be a big trouble!" Wen Jing said.
"Let's eat something first, and I'll go explore the way first. "I had a plan in mind, so I suggested that everyone replenish their energy first.
After eating and drinking, I didn't wait for them to speak, and my stomach began to explore the caves one by one. - Gu Xin must stay to prevent Ding Jun from making trouble! And Hong Kaiyuan and Wen Jing are the bosses, of course they can't easily get into danger!
The reason why I did this was nothing more than to put on a show for Ding Jun and the others, and by the way, I also wanted to see how to turn into the ninth cave from the other tunnels. - I don't want them to know that way!
By the time I walked a few hundred meters one by one, it was already three hours later, and at this time, Wang Quan had already arrived with a large army.
At this time, I also figured out that I could turn back to the ninth cave by turning a few corners from the thirteenth and sixteenth caves, and secretly told Wen Jing, Hong Kaiyuan and others about the situation.
After repairing for a while, everyone finally decided to divide into eleven groups to explore again, hoping to pass through this labyrinth.
Wang Quan is obviously a scheming guy, this time he separated the five of us, Ding Jun took two or three of us, and he took me and Hong Kaiyuan with him!
Of course, I had expected this situation, so I didn't care about it, but just told Gu Xin to take good care of Wen Jing and Ji Wushuang.
