Chapter 55: Finding a Way to Get Out

They broke in another life, and I don't know whether to be happy or sad. Although they were tomb robbers, they were innocent of death, but watching a big living person being burned alive in front of my eyes, I guess everyone was a little unbearable, and his tragic and desperate cry echoed in my ears for a long time.

This blue fire should be methane, that is, biogas, I have learned in chemistry, organic matter will produce methane when it decays in the isolated air, so there is this thing in the ancient tomb, and it can also be explained, but such a big fire, there must be a large amount of methane underneath, which can show that the tomb is indeed well sealed, and second, it also shows that there is a lot of organic matter underneath.

Because the sixth master gave the order, we had nothing else to do, so we could only sit on the floor of the small room and wait for the methane to burn out, and the flames would make my face burn.

After waiting for a long time, the flames did not get smaller, and I kept getting sleepy, and I dozed off a few times in a daze, but I did not let my guard down, so my nerves were tense and I was not able to fall asleep.

Unexpectedly, it burned until dawn, and the fire was not extinguished. I suddenly thought about what the people under me would be burned into, and I couldn't help but feel the hair stand on end, I must have burned down in the crematorium after such a long time.

Seeing that it was dawn, the sixth master woke up one of his subordinates beside him and asked him to go and get some food. After a while, he came with steamed buns and hot water bottles, poured water for the sixth master, and distributed them to the awake ones one by one, he didn't seem to plan to give it to me, but the sixth master gave him a look, and he also gave me one.

I said to the sixth master: "This fire can't be extinguished for a while, you go back to rest and rest first, and then we will call you when it is extinguished." I have my own calculations in my heart, the sixth master is the backbone of this group of people, he is not here, these people will be more relaxed about my yamen, and then I can find a chance to slip away. Day and night are different, as long as I can slip out of the gate, I am basically out of danger.

He nodded and shouted, "Get up!"

A few people who had just slept on the ground jumped up like frightened rabbits, and it was very funny to watch.

The sixth master pointed at a few of them: "You guys," he pointed at me again, "stay here with him and watch, the others will rest first, and then come with me to exchange for them in a few hours."

I could hear that, and this was the one who left them to watch me. But I still looked very concerned about him on my face: "Sixth Master, don't worry about going to rest for a while, it's too torturous to not sleep this night."

He didn't talk to me, but turned and walked out of the hut, followed by the two of them.

So, there were only four people left in the room, including me, who still had nothing to do and sat on the floor. In fact, there were five people, and there was still one lying in the corner, and after a night, his whole body was black, and he was panicked when he looked at it, he really didn't expect the poison of the golden-headed centipede to be so terrifying.

In fact, in my opinion, it is better to take advantage of this fire to throw him down and melt it together, but the sixth master did not give an order, and no one can act rashly.

I stood up, and the three next to me looked up at me instantly, and it seemed that they understood the meaning of the sixth master very well. I pretended not to take them seriously, walked to a pile of sacks at my normal pace, picked up three, turned to the man who was lying down, and carefully covered him with the sack so that I could not touch him.

The brother didn't say anything when he saw me doing this, but his demeanor had already revealed that he had relaxed his guard against me. Among these three people, I found that there was the person who was slapped by the sixth master just now, so I walked over to him and sat down.

He was visibly uncomfortable, not very receptive to my appearance, he looked at me and moved his body to the side a little.

I said to him: "This is something that no one can imagine, the sixth master has been doing this business for so many years, he should be able to see it."

He looked at me, nodded reluctantly, and said nothing.

"The biogas in this tomb can burn for so long, it must not be easy inside, and we will have to be extra careful when we go in."

He still ignored me, but someone next to him spoke first: "You say there is still danger here?"

I replied to him with a smile: "There should be, but don't worry, I will do my best to help you, not to mention the sixth master, it's always right to be careful."

At this time, the guy next to me suddenly grabbed my collar and almost shouted: "Be careful, be careful, be careful of the son of the sixth master and not be burned to death!"

I was overwhelmed by the sudden thud, and my body was dragged down, and in a hurry, I reached out and pushed him, and the two of us twisted together. The two next to him hurriedly came over to pull the rack, and said as they pulled: "Third brother, calm down, it's not easy to explain if you kill the sixth master now."

The two of them finally let go of the third child, and after I got out, I quickly stood up, but I thought in my mind: It turned out that it was the son of the sixth master? No wonder the old man's face was ugly at that time, and he stared at the fire all night...... I estimate that the third child may really respect the sixth master, and secondly, he may have a good relationship with the sixth master's son, otherwise it would not be like this.

I suppressed my anger and persuaded him in a kind tone: "Third brother, I know you are angry, but at this moment we are grasshoppers on a rope, why do you have to suffer." The two of them also persuaded the third child, and finally calmed down.

We sat back on the ground again, but the third child still didn't say a word, and I didn't stimulate him anymore. On the contrary, the two people next to him were idle and bored, and I chatted, and I also learned from them that they were a family tomb robbery gang, all of which were related to the sixth master, and the one who was poisoned was a nephew of the sixth master, because the sixth master's ability to rob holes and explore tombs only taught his son and nephew, and distant relatives could not learn, so they could only follow the meal. And the sixth master originally had two sons, one of whom had died before, and today he is considered to have no children and grandchildren.

Of course, they didn't say the word "cut off children and grandchildren", otherwise the third child might be thunderous again. I said in my heart that this old fox thinks very well, and only leaves his ability to the dearest, so that the richest people in the future must be his son and nephew, but I didn't expect such a catastrophe today, and I don't know how many nephews are left. People often say that "digging graves and digging graves, cutting off children and grandchildren", and today I can see the present world newspaper.

But it is said that it is "digging graves and digging graves", which is an act with a destructive and heavy meaning of tomb robbery. The excavation of tombs is not for profit, the process of excavation and research is for scientific research, not to mention that most of the time the excavation of tombs is carried out with the infrastructure to carry out rescue excavations, not only is not destruction, but a kind of protection, this is the most fundamental difference between gold and stone and tomb robbery, so "cut off children and grandchildren" should have nothing to do with gold and stone workers, including me.

In addition to these thoughts, I never forgot a more important issue in my mind - running. But now that the six eyes are looking at me, I'm not sure I can run faster than them, and I'm not sure if they lock the door, and if I rush to the door, I won't be able to get out. Come to think of it, the only thing I had to save my life was the talisman in my pocket. Ay? That's right!

I don't know if it's really that useful, but I can only try.

Thinking about it, I said to the two people who were quite friendly: "Two big brothers, I'm really sorry, I want to, where is the toilet here?"

The older one winked at the other, and the man stood up and led me to the aqua toilet in the backyard, where a foul stench came over my face. There is no way, you still have to "get on". I walked over there to crouch down, and the guy stared at me intently.

"Big brother, can you stare at me, I can't pull it out when I look at me, I can't run here, and it's weird to say, you just wait for me at the gate of the courtyard."

He let out two dry laughs, knowing that I couldn't escape alone in this backyard, and turned around and walked into the house.

I didn't care about anything, so I turned around and unbuttoned my pants and pointed my ass to that side, took out the talisman and put it in the palm of my hand, and my heart was pounding. Pretending to take a paper and looking at the door with his peripheral vision, the guy didn't come back to stare at me.

I pulled up my pants and came out, and it felt like I was living under the watchful eye of someone else, and there was no freedom at all.

Walking back to the hut, I pretended to inadvertently throw the crumpled rune paper into the fire without attracting anyone's attention.

While I waited, I wondered, can the big waist really receive the news? What do I do when I receive the message? Did he bring someone himself, or did he contact the officials in L City? If so, can you find what I'm talking about here? I regret it a little and don't know if I should hope for this strange method, but I don't have much of a chance now. Furthermore, will I be in danger when I am arrested? It's all unknown.

Maybe after sending the message, I had a little hope in my heart, and I sat down in the room and dozed off again. When I woke up, there was already a group of people from the sixth master next to me, and the third child went to rest. I looked at the fire, and it seemed to be burning, but it was smaller than before, and I could see that the wall near the entrance to the thief's cave was blackened. But there are also advantages, this thief hole is a lot stronger, if they take me in too, at least I won't die from such a funny thing as the collapse of the thief hole.
