108 into the hole
However, the so-called final team rest is not a rest, in fact, it is almost like standing still. It may be that the "big brother" still has some doubts, so he stays here for a while.
I approached Uncle Biao, handed me a cigarette, and wanted to say a few words to my father almost "Big Brother".
Before he opened his mouth, Uncle Biao said that the person at the head of the "big brother" was not my father, and told me to settle down.
Exercise!
As I walked back to the group, I accidentally glanced around me.
But it's good not to pay attention, this attention is really a bit strange, it stands to reason that the excavation of the tunnel should be a big project, and I have also seen the drawings, but how can there be no traces of artificial construction at the bottom of this valley? Not to mention any large-scale mechanized facilities.
Could it be that the holes were dug little by little with shovels?
Then I realized that the entrance was not a large tunnel as I had imagined, but a hole not much bigger than a manhole cover.
At that time, I was shocked, could it really be that I couldn't dig with a shovel back then?
At this time, Xiao Liu gently stabbed me, snorted at me, and told me to look at the side of the hole.
At first, I didn't really care, but when I looked closely, I realized that he was telling me to see the footprints.
In the other direction of the cave entrance, a footprint composed of unfamiliar footprints stretched far away, coupled with what Uncle Biao said just now, it seems that someone should have entered this cave before us.
So who are these people?
Based on the footprints alone, I can't be sure for a while whether it is Erbiao's team, but it is certain that there are definitely not a few people in this team.
Uncle Biao was still thinking about something, shaking his head and asking questions.
Although he seemed a little anxious, he didn't say anything in the end.
After another two minutes, after Uncle Biao answered the phone, he finally paid attention, and with an order, the operation officially began.
The hole in the manhole cover, which was originally sealed by a very strong door, was now open, and there was no reason for the black hole inside.
But the eerie entrance of the cave in front of us was like a giant beast, opening its mouth and roaring at us......
Uncle Biao took the lead and was the first to go inside.
I wondered, don't you use ropes?
When it was my turn, I realized that there were already handles made of steel inside, like a passage for a submarine.
The others also put on helmets and searchlights, and went down to the cave one by one like miners.
In the beginning, by the light outside, we could still tell what kind of environment we were in, surrounded by iron sheets, like a big chimney.
But the further down it went, the darker it became, and I didn't know when it would end, and I always felt that the vertical chimney was a backup entrance, and the original hole could not be opened for some reason.
Looking at the bottomless darkness below, a mystery mixed with a little fear slowly eroded my heart.
It's not the first time I've gone down to a cave, but it's the first fucking time I've gone down to a cave like this.
Suddenly I had a desire to escape, but the people were already here, and my hands and feet were still moving mechanically downward.
As we went deeper and deeper, we had to turn on the searchlights overhead when we got to a place where the light couldn't reach.
But this is good, the mysterious horror atmosphere is even stronger, bow your head and go down a pillar of light, you can't see it to the end, and your heart says how fucking deep is this?
Suddenly, Uncle Biao's command voice came from below, and with the reflection of the sound wave of the channel, it was already distorted by the time it reached our ears.
But we still heard clearly, he told us to turn on a few lights, and leave two or three lights.
Hearing this, I immediately turned off the overhead lights, and in the end there were only three headlamps left in the line.
Ten minutes later, we went down to the bottom, and Uncle Biao told us to rest for a while.
Indeed, after such a long ladder movement, my hands and feet are a little weak, and I thought to myself, why not slide down with a rope, so much trouble?
At this time, Uncle Biao was holding the map, as if looking for his current location, and I saw that he had marked a third of the map.
It occurred to me that we didn't start from scratch?
But then I understood why he did it, because there was a collapse in the first third of the way, and the only explanation for the collapse could only be related to my father's incident.
When I unloaded my backpack, I smelled a smell of smoke, and when I looked back, there were many points of light shining in the darkness, and it turned out that many people had lit cigarettes.
Smokers are like this, when they see others smoking, they want to smoke themselves.
I also took out my cigarette and was about to swallow the clouds and exhale the fog, but then I noticed that Fan Ping was walking towards me at some point, but after thinking about it, I guessed his purpose, and hid the cigarette back in my trouser pocket.
Fan Ping glanced at us and locked his gaze on Xiao Liu near the wall.
Immediately, Fan Ping went over to greet him with a few warm words, and then began to ask for cigarettes.
Exercise! This forced to be the smoke is gone, looking for someone to ask for cigarettes.
However, Xiao Liu's behavior is a little abnormal, he is smoking a cigarette, but he is particularly interested in the wall.
Fan Ping asked him for cigarettes, but he didn't even look at it, and casually gave out all the remaining half of his pack, which made Fan Ping stunned at first, and then left in a hurry.
Xiao Liu continued to look at me for a while, came to my side, and whispered to me mysteriously: "This wall is a little strange, the outside is covered with a layer of black ash, as if it has been roasted by fire." ”
I took a drag on my cigarette and said disapprovingly, "How do you know it's not ashes that have been hung up for a long time?" ”
"I scratched open a layer, it didn't feel like it, it was roasted by the fire, and there was a lot of slimy material piled up, I don't know what it was."
I was a little too lazy to pay attention to him, and said casually: "Okay, don't be suspicious all day long, if you have any questions, you can ask Uncle Biao." ”
But Xiao Liu then said again: "Then after you went down to the cave, did you have a sense of déjà vu?" ”
I patted him on the head: "Have you dreamed of it?" Pig, it's the first time we've come. ”
Xiao Liu ignored me, continued to smoke, and stopped talking.
After a short rest, the group continued to move deeper.
After going deep into the cave, I realized that this is not so much a cave as an underground engineering facility.
The surrounding area is very neatly trimmed, with pipes of various sizes stretching out into the invisible dark area, and even light bulbs are installed every few meters, but it is estimated that it has long been unusable, and even if the line is fine, power generation is also a problem.
The road is also very smooth, more like to facilitate the transportation of something.
I've been wondering how my father's 100-odd men managed to build such a massive project.
In fact, I was suspicious of Xiao Liu just now, but now I find that I am similar to him, and the deeper I go, the more questions I have.
