242. Brainstorming (2)
After everyone heard Medusa's ability, they all gasped, and they all looked at Chen Xiao with an incredible expression, as if they didn't understand why he could sit here safely, and how could this arrogant woman be tamed by him?
"What do you think I'm doing? Do you think so much about me to die? Chen Xiao said in surprise.
"No, we just want to know, how did you get to where you are now?"
Chen Xiao felt helpless for a while, after all, she didn't know anything about this, when she saw Medusa for the first time, she was indeed fascinated by her petrification, but maybe for some reason, he escaped from that illusion, maybe this is the difference in spiritual power?
Before he could speak, Medusa preemptively spoke.
"Chen Xiao, he is the only man I have seen so far who can withstand my petrification ability, and it is because of this that I am so obsessed with him, after all, all the people I loved before have turned into stone statues..."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere became heavy.
At this time, it was Yu Meng who broke the deadlock.
"Well, when I heard your abilities, I suddenly had an idea, do you want to hear it?"
"Come on, we don't have much time!"
They have been discussing this for a long time, and if they don't hurry up and show their heads, it is estimated that they will arouse the suspicion of the guards.
"Good! Then I'll make a long story short, there are five people who are known to have abilities, me, Medusa, Chen Xiao, Wanhua, and Xiaoxi. Xiaoxi doesn't care for the time being, after all, she belongs to the auxiliary ability, and the other four abilities have to give full play to their own abilities and cooperate with each other. ”
"First of all, I will take two incapable people out first, and join the two people outside that Chen Xiao said, and then Chen Xiao and Wanhua will explore and excavate the tunnel here, and strive to make a passage as soon as possible to bring the rest of the people out, and Medusa, you are responsible for the back of the mat, and all the people who come to stop are fixed, after all, the guards here are all men."
"If there are people with higher spiritual power than you, you can temporarily retreat to find Chen Xiao and ask him to help you for a while, or let him be a bait to lure those people away, and you can take advantage of the chaos to escape!"
"Of course, this is an afterword, and it is also a helpless move, if that situation really happens, we should also consider ourselves unlucky!"
Yu Meng told her all about her plan, and everyone agreed, after all, there was no better way now.
And the people who should have dispersed did not choose to leave immediately, but went up to show their heads, gathered again, and began to study in this cave.
"Is this a natural hole? How can this wall be so flat? Chen Xiao asked.
According to his observations, the walls were so angular that they had been dug up with some kind of tool, otherwise he wouldn't have asked them at the beginning if they had dug them.
"Of course not? Didn't I tell you? Is there anything wrong with this wall? ”
Yu dreamed that Chen Xiao had been studying the wall, and he also stepped forward to observe.
"Look at this wall, it is smooth and smooth, and it looks like it was dug out of something, although it is not caused by inferior shovels like yours, but it is estimated that it is also caused by similar tools."
"So you mean it's an artificial hole?"
"How is this possible? It's a few meters underground! Who is going to dig a useless pit here? Chiba asked.
"Nope! It's possible, because a few months ago, it wasn't underground..."
Yu Meng's words made everyone suddenly wake up, and they finally remembered the sandstorm when the disaster came a few months ago, and the sandstorm was enough to turn this place into several meters deep underground.
Chen Xiao began to knock on the walls of the cave, and after a while, he found a clue.
"Come and listen! There's a sound of emptiness here, and there's still room in there?! ”
Everyone hurriedly came over, and Wanhua came to Chen Xiao's side and said softly.
"Let me see..."
Chen Xiao hurriedly gave way to Wanhua, he didn't know her ability before, after understanding just now, he knew that this girl's ability is perspective, she can see through everything she wants to see, but it only includes things in the internal structure, not what she thinks in her heart.
Wanhua pressed her eyes against the wall, her fists clenched, and after looking at it for a while, she turned back and said to everyone.
"There's a space in there, it looks big, and it leads underground, but it's too dark for me to see!"
"Really? Is this an escape route built before? Can we get out of here?! ”
"Let's not worry, we don't know if it's dangerous here, if you rush in, it's easy to be ambushed!" Chen Xiao said softly.
Chiba glanced at Chen Xiao with slanted eyes and said very impatiently.
"When will that be? Since there's a ready-made passage to get out, why don't we take advantage of it? Since you're timid, let me take the lead! Get out of the way! ”
Qianye pushed Chen Xiao away, don't look at her as just a little girl, but her strength is indeed not small, just a light push, Chen Xiao took a few steps back.
"It turns out that this girl is also a capable person, but it's just a physical strengthening, I didn't notice it..."
Chen Xiao only found out at this time that Chiba was also a capable person, maybe she didn't realize this fact herself.
Chiba walked quickly to the wall, and with a few sharp pushes with both hands, a large hole was revealed in the wall in front of him, and he saw the space inside.
After seeing success, Chiba took the lead in walking in, and Wanhua saw her entering, and she also walked in helplessly.
The rest of the people began to look at each other, but Yu Meng shook his head and whispered.
"Forget it, they're all in, we can't stay here, let's keep up!"
Everyone also slowly walked into the big cave, but they didn't notice that there was another person who did not go in, but silently left the cave and climbed to the top.
Several people struggled to make their way through the big hole, and it didn't seem to be a flat space, just a small path, and it was more of a pipe than a small path.
"This place is too small, and it seems that you have to squat in front of you to move forward!"
"What the hell is this place? How can it be so weird? ”
Chen Xiao stretched out his hand and touched the cave wall in front of him, which felt almost the same as the hole outside, and then a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of something.
"Looks like I know what this passage is?" Chen Xiao said with a smile.
"What did you find?"
"The surface of this wall is the same as the hole outside, which means that they are from the hand of one person, and look at the skill of digging this hole, if you want to dig this kind of hole, you must dig it all over again, otherwise it will cause cracks, and this can be so seamless, which shows that the person who digs the hole must be a top master!"
"And the only kind of people I can think of, who can dig such holes, are them, tomb robbers!"
Chen Xiao's words surprised everyone around him, especially Yu Meng.
"Tomb robbing? Now in a civilized society, how can there be such people? ”
"You don't understand that, do you? It's just that you don't know, even before the end of the world, there are still surviving tomb robbers, but they have all washed their hands in gold, but their ways and methods are still there, which cannot be changed! ”
Chen Xiao pointed to the surrounding walls, signaling that they must have done it.
"So what are they here for? There are tombs here? ”
"I don't know." Chen Xiao shook his head. "Judging by the wear and tear of the walls of this cave, this cave must have been dug for a long time, but it must lead to a tomb underneath, otherwise the meaning of his existence would not exist."
"That being the case. Then let's hurry up, those two girls are still ahead! ”
Several people hurriedly quickened their pace and quickly crawled forward.
I don't know how long they climbed, they finally came to an open field, and they also saw the two of them in front of them, they were standing not far away, not knowing what they were looking at.
"Hey! What are you doing standing there? Anything about it? ”
They did not respond to Chen Xiao's words, but talked to themselves in the same place.
"Gold... A lot of gold...! ”
