Under the stone wall near the ground, there are countless holes of all sizes, the largest ones can only fit one person through, and the small ones are only the thickness of a wrist. The distance between the openings varies from one to the other, with some two openings close to each other and others separated by a long distance. Most of the holes are blocked by human bones, which need to be pulled aside to be touched.

"What are these holes for?" Wu Zhiyuan secretly questioned that where the mausoleum underground palace was built, it would not generally dig this kind of hole at the bottom of the stone wall, which would make the stone wall unstable and lead to the collapse of the entire mausoleum. Therefore, it is very likely that these holes of different sizes appeared after the construction of the underground palace, and it is impossible to know who is digging the holes. However, one thing is certain, these holes are definitely not robbery holes, and the robbery holes should enter the underground palace from the top of the cave, and the number of them will not be so large, and many of the holes are extremely narrow, and there is no room for people to climb in and out.

Thinking of what the woman said, Wu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand to test the situation in the cave, and just when his hand touched the edge of the cave, a miserable scream suddenly came from a distance, the sound was terrible, echoing in the underground palace, endlessly.

Wu Zhiyuan was so frightened that he retracted his hand and listened carefully to the direction where the scream came from, but the scream kept echoing in the underground palace, and it was impossible to identify the specific source. But the voice of this scream was relatively unfamiliar, and it could be heard as a man, Wu Zhiyuan concluded that it was not Sun Heizi, let alone Moon Shadow Fuxian.

The screams gradually subsided, and there was a brief silence in the dungeon. Immediately afterwards, two more gunshots were heard, and there was a short time interval between the two shots, presumably from the shell gun, and if it was a crooked handle, it would be a series of sounds.

"Looks like Moon Shadow and Sun Hemp have already come in." Wu Zhiyuan secretly said in his heart, the two gunshots just now may have been the one they had encountered, and Sun Haozi had just fired the shot, and the person who made that scream might be Baolin Tang or one of the two bannermen.

If I could meet them as much as possible, my situation would not be so embarrassing. Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan shouted loudly into the darkness in the distance: "Moon Shadow, Brother Sun!" ”

The voice quickly echoed in the darkness of the dungeon, gradually disappearing, but they didn't hear any response from Moon Shadow Fuxian or Sun Haozi at all, didn't they hear their own shouts? Wu Zhiyuan wondered in his heart, he could hear their voices, they shouldn't not be able to hear their own shouts, why didn't they respond?

Wu Zhiyuan was pondering, and suddenly saw a little bright light coming from the hole under the stone wall, the brightness of the bright light was weak, but Wu Zhiyuan had stayed in this dark underground palace for a long time, so he was extremely sensitive to the light. He hurriedly threw himself on the ground and peeked in through the cavern under the stone wall.

The bright light really came from the cave, and Wu Zhiyuan saw that the scene in the cave was getting clearer and clearer, indicating that the bright light was getting closer and closer to the position where he was leaning over. As the light became brighter and brighter, a faint burst of footsteps could be heard, and the footsteps were rather chaotic, as if it was not a person walking.

Wu Zhiyuan was overjoyed in his heart, thinking that it was Moon Shadow Fuxian and Sun Haozi and others, and just as he was about to open his mouth to call, he heard the voice of a person inside asking, "Are you sure it's around here?" The voice was old and sounded very awkward, but Wu Zhiyuan immediately recognized that this person was the old bannerman, although his voice was slightly sharper at this time, but his voice could still be distinguished.

Another deep and deep voice replied, "That kid shouted twice, and I also heard the sound to distinguish the position, how could I tell so clearly?" But he should be around here, pay more attention. There is no doubt that this person is the middle-aged bannerman, although he has always been silent, but he is the only one who can get so close to the old bannerman.

The old flag man agreed, and the two continued to walk towards the entrance of the cave where Wu Zhiyuan leaned over. The first to enter Wu Zhiyuan's line of sight was a pair of black satin high boots, the boots were of excellent workmanship, reflecting the crystal light of silk under the beating firelight. Wu Zhiyuan thought for a while, the clothes of the old banner and the middle-aged banner were relatively shabby, and their life guarding the tomb must be very difficult, how could anyone among the two of them afford to wear such expensive boots?

Just thinking about it, another pair of feet also walked into Wu Zhiyuan's sight, and to Wu Zhiyuan's surprise, this person was actually wearing a pair of ten-square shoes on his feet.

Shifang shoes are shoes that only Taoist priests will wear, could it be that this person's identity is a Taoist priest? In other words, one of the old and middle-aged Qiding is a Taoist priest? It seems somewhat unbelievable.

It's just a guess, Wu Zhiyuan can only be sure of one thing at the moment, there are only these two people on the opposite side of the stone wall, and there is no Moon Shadow Fuxian and Sun Haozi.

In this case, how did these two flag men get rid of Sun Hezi? Could it be that the two gunshots just now were because the two of them tried to escape, and Sun Haozi fired a warning shot? But what is the explanation for that heart-rending scream?

A series of questions surged into Wu Zhiyuan's mind, what happened during the period of time when he was separated from Sun Haozi and Moon Shadow Fuxian, he didn't know anything, he could only infer based on what he saw now, so his credibility was not high.

As he continued to ponder, he only heard the old bannerman's voice say, "Hey, why are there so many holes under this stone wall?" ”

Wu Zhiyuan secretly screamed when he heard this, he was leaning over next to the largest hole, if the two people inside looked down, they could find that there were people on the other side of the cave at a glance. But at this time, it was too late to dodge, Wu Zhiyuan was surrounded by piles of bones, and if the movement was too big, it would make a sound when it touched the bones, and the two people inside were only separated by a wall from themselves.

Wu Zhiyuan's eyelids jumped a few times, only to see that the light falling on the ground suddenly brightened, the person with the ten-square shoes squatted down, and a torch appeared at the entrance of the cave, Wu Zhiyuan's eyes were closed, and he was about to roll to the side on the spot, but before he could act, he suddenly felt that his belt was tight, and at the same time, his body was light, as if he was floating.

When he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, only to see that his body had actually risen out of thin air and had risen into midair. Before he could react to what was going on, he heard a voice as thin as a gossamer commanding in his ear, "Don't make a sound." ”

Only then did Wu Zhiyuan realize that there was a person above his head, and this person actually grabbed his belt with his hand and lifted him up. It's not unusual to mention a person, but it's not something ordinary people can do by climbing on a smooth stone wall with their bare hands.

A moment later, the torch at the entrance of the underground cave was picked up again by the man who was wearing ten square shoes.

"There seems to be a pile of dead human bones outside the hole." The voice of the middle-aged flag man said, there is no doubt that the person who pedals the ten square shoes is him, he is a Taoist priest.

"When this underground palace was built, I don't know how many unjust souls were buried, and it is not surprising that there are dead people's bones." Lao Qiding's voice replied slowly, "It's just that the situation in this cave is a little strange, according to reason, there should not be such a strange stone cave in the imperial tomb, and I don't know what this cave is used for." ”

The strange stone cave that Lao Qiding said naturally refers to the hole where he and the middle-aged Qiding are located, not the hole that Wu Zhiyuan is in at this time.

The two men on the other side of the stone wall were silent for a moment, and then continued to walk forward, and the footsteps inside gradually faded away, and soon, the hole under the stone wall became dark again.

"Who are you?" Seeing that the two people inside had already walked away, Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly asked questions, and at the same time he was about to look back.
