Chapter 333: The Bottom of the Sinkhole

Kill two birds with one stone? Xiao Laodao said: "Could it be that the government wants us to help them find the hidden soldier cave, and then wipe us out?" ”

The big man hurriedly nodded, "Yes, everyone, I see that you are different from those people in the village under the mountain, while the officers and soldiers have not yet surrounded and suppressed you, leave quickly." ”

When Xiao Laodao heard this, he glanced at the master, "Brother, what do you think?" ”

The master said: "Since it is a trap, let's not wade into this troubled water." ”

Xiao Laodao nodded, "Okay, then pack up your things now and leave here." ”

When the big man heard this, he hurriedly stood up from the bunk and gave the grandfather a few people a fist, "Then I will leave below, I will take a look at the village under the mountain, and if anyone can listen to my advice, I will also persuade them to leave." ”

The big man left, and the grandfather quickly packed his luggage, but before he could go down the mountain, a red light flashed from the south direction, and a few people saw this, looked south, and felt a little strange, as if a lightning bolt had struck the ground.

Just as a few people were looking around, it flashed again, and the grandfather was puzzled, and at this moment, torches lit up in the village below the mountain, and many people rushed towards the place where the red light flashed.

Seeing this, Xiao Laodao said to the master: "The light just now is very strange, or ...... Let's follow them over and have a look. ”

The master did not object, Xiao Laodao asked Xiaoqing again, "There was a red place just now, is it because of the appearance of a strange treasure?" ”

Xiaoqing shook her head, "I didn't feel anything. ”

Xiao Laodao suddenly hesitated, and the master said: "Brother Xiao, it's okay to take a look, in case that big man is lying to us." ”

Xiao Laodao nodded slightly.

The people in the village below the mountain almost poured out of the nest, in groups of three or five, although they were all in one direction, but they did not walk together, only to see the light of torches all over the mountain.

The Tai Ye and the others did not light torches, and quietly followed behind a team of more than ten people, this team was the strongest of all the teams, and it seemed to be well-trained, perhaps it should be a group of heavily disciplined rivers and oceans.

After following the group southward for some distance, they came to a col surrounded by mountains, and saw that inside the col was a bottomless sinkhole, as if the ground had collapsed to form a huge deep well.

The sinkhole was surrounded by dots, all of which were bright with torches, and the master looked at the torches and roughly calculated the people on the pit, at least four or five hundred. However, no one went down to the sinkhole, and there were many discussions on the pit, some said that the red light just now came from the pit, and the strange treasure must be below, and some said that it was not here, and from the distance of the red light, it should be farther.

In the end, everyone returned, because the danger in the pit was unpredictable, and what might happen to them at night, and they all planned to come back during the day.

Seeing everyone leaving, a few people hiding in the shadows, what should I do if I get together, Xiao Laodao meant, just find a place nearby, and wait until tomorrow to take a look.

At this moment, the teams that had left quietly returned quietly after extinguishing their torches, riveting ropes around the sinkhole, as if they were going to explore the sinkhole at night.

Seeing this, the master suddenly became interested, and his competitive spirit made him want to find a place to tie a rope down to see what was going on, but Xiao Laodao stopped him.

Several teams of people left two or three people on it as a response, and the others all went down along the rope, and after an hour, from the place where the teams tied the rope, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared, and with three strokes and five divisions, they knocked down all the people who guarded the rope, carried them and threw them into the bottomless sinkhole, and then untied the rope above and threw them down.

Seeing this, the grandfather and a few people didn't dare to breathe, Xiao Laodao gestured to the grandfather and a few people: peers are jealous, and dissidents are killed!

A few people stayed in the dark for an hour, at this time, the sky was dark, and seeing that there was no movement around the sinkhole, several people quietly left the sinkhole and returned the same way, but surrounded by mountains, if you want to leave this area, you must enter the village.

Just when the grandfather and a few people were passing through the village, they were stopped by a group of people and said to the grandfather and a few people, it's okay to leave here, open the baggage and let them see.

The implication is that I am afraid that my grandfather will get a treasure and leave quietly, and when other people in the village see this, they also surround them, and "Hula" hundreds of people at once.

With the temper of the master, it is impossible to open the burden and check it for everyone, but if this falls out, hundreds of people may really suspect that a few of them have taken a strange treasure, and it will be troublesome if they rush up.

Xiao Laodao gave the master a look, and several people swallowed their anger and opened their respective burdens. After checking the baggage, they were going to search their bodies again, and the grandfather gritted his teeth and asked them to collect it, but when they wanted to search Xiaoqing, the grandfather rushed over and grabbed a person's wrist, twisted it gently, clicked, and twisted the person's arm, and the atmosphere suddenly changed, and the tension immediately became tense.

There was a figure in the crowd who seemed to be the leader, looked at the grandfather, actually laughed, and said to everyone: "Brothers, we have been here for a few days, but no one has dared to dig out of the sinkhole, today this young man hurt people, should be punished severely, it is better to let him go down, for us to explore the sinkhole, I don't know what you think?" ”

As soon as this person's words came out, the people around him echoed him, and they all agreed to send the master down, and the master was furious, but he was not alone at this time, and Xiao Laodao and them, if he fought with them, not only would his life be difficult to protect, but even Xiao Laodao would not be able to live.

Xiao Laodao suddenly said loudly: "If you want us to go down, it's okay, don't detain our luggage, let alone detain our people, if you want to go down, a few of us will go down together!" ”

"Good!" The leader applauded.

The day dawned quickly, and the grandfather and a few people, surrounded by a group of people, escorted the sinkhole near last night.

I didn't see it too clearly last night, and then I looked at the sinkhole, the radius can be dozens of zhang, hundreds of zhang deep, not only the sinkhole is lush and green, but the vegetation below seems to be luxuriant, and there seem to be trees, but the few people who were thrown down yesterday can't see it at all on the pit.

The ropes brought by the master were not enough, and they also provided a few strong ropes, tied the ropes to a tree next to the sinkhole, and several people went down the ropes in turn.

The master was the first to go down, Xiao Laodao was the last, when Xiao Laodao wanted to go down along the rope, he sneered at those people and said: "Poor Dao saw someone go down into the pit last night, but someone on the pit cut the rope, everyone, if you really want our lives, don't cut the rope, right?" ”

When the leader heard this, he packed the ticket and said: "Don't worry, I will wait for you above, if you find a strange treasure, you take half of it, we take half of it, you better not be like those who went down before, never go back." ”

"Good!" Xiao Laodao got up along the rope.

The sinkhole resembles a huge patio with steep rock walls. At this time, the master was at the bottom, and when he went down to the sinkhole for more than half of the time, a platform more than three feet wide appeared on the cliff wall, like a road carved out of the mountain artificially, and the path surrounded the cliff walls around the sinkhole, leading to the depths of the sinkhole in a circle.

The master immediately greeted Xiao Lao Dao above: "Brother Xiao, there is a road on this cliff, it seems that the big man didn't lie to us, maybe there is really an ancient hidden soldier cave here." ”

Xiao Laodao replied, "Be more careful!" ”

Soon, several people all followed the rope and went down to the cliff path, and then, along the path, went down around the cliff wall, and after walking around, there was no end, however, there was a cave on the cliff wall, the entrance of the cave was irregular and long, long up and down, narrow left and right, and he could barely squeeze into it sideways, Xiao Laodao stood at the entrance of the cave and looked inside, and said to the master: "There are traces in the cave entrance, and the people who came down last night should have entered this cave, perhaps, they don't know that the rope was cut off, I can't get out anymore. ”

When the master heard this, he asked, "Are those people above credible, if we can't keep it, we won't be able to get out like them." ”

Xiao Laodao shook his head, "If you come, you will be safe, when you were on it just now, listening to their tone, it seems that you have been here for some days, but don't worry, if you can't get your hands on the treasure, they won't leave, if we really can't get out, when they come down, we will snatch their ropes." ”

The master looked into the cave and asked Xiao Laodao, "Then let's go into this cave now?" ”

Xiao Laodao waved his hand, "The dry food in our baggage is enough for us to eat for a few days, don't worry, let's find out the situation in this pit first." ”

A few people did not enter the cave, continued to walk along the road, walked around the cliff wall twice, and when they saw that they were about to reach the bottom of the pit, there was a cave on the cliff wall, this cave was huge, how high and wide were the two people, Xiao Laodao stood at the entrance of the cave, listened attentively, and said: "This hole is very strange, how do you feel that there is still wind?" As he spoke, he asked Xiao Shiyi to take out a candle and light the candle at the entrance of the cave to try, the candle flame shook slightly, Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled, "This hole seems to be able to lead to other places, the so-called hidden soldier cave, the soldiers are hidden under here, there is always a place to go out, and this is a way out." ”

Xiao Laodao looked around the entrance of the cave again and said, "There is no trace of this cave, no one should have entered it." ”

However, the master didn't go in, continued to walk down, walked two more laps, and came to the bottom of the pit, and saw that the bottom of the pit was a large flat land, the ground was full of strange flowers and plants, and there was really a forest, the most incredible thing is that there was a stream at the bottom of the pit, of course, this could not be seen on it, just like a paradise.
