Chapter 52: Self-Help

Lei Lao Wu walked up: "What's wrong?" ā€

"Don't talk." I wrote these three words on the shoal, and then showed the stone to Lei Lao Wu.

Lei Lao Wu glanced at it, and immediately gasped: "What's wrong?" ā€

"He stuffed it to me." I said, "Just be careful." ā€

Lei Lao Wu seemed very puzzled, but I asked him not to speak, so he had to hold back his curiosity and remain silent.

Wang Zhengtai walked forward without saying a word, and Lei Lao Wu asked me: "What should I do?" To keep up or not to keep up? ā€

I hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go, don't arouse Wang Zhengtai's suspicion." ā€

The two of us followed Wang Zhengtai closely, and walked forward along the shallows one foot deeper.

The further you went, the more bones came out of the shallows.

I soon discovered that the skeletons had one thing in common, and that was that they all had a crack in the back of their heads. I know they must have been hit on the back of the head with a blunt object before they died.

What are the identities of these dead people? And who killed them? What is the purpose of this stone chamber?

As I continued to walk a little further, I discovered something familiar.

A wooden man.

Although the wood has decayed and dried, it still retains the shape of a wooden man. Moreover, the shape of this wooden figure is very similar to the wooden figure left to me by my grandfather.

Could it be that this is left by the people of Panmen Mulu? The people of Panmen Mulu have been here?

Or...... The people who died were actually Panmen.

Grass, the thought startled me, and I felt more and more that it was a great possibility, and the people of Panmen were sent to this place to carry out the project. Later, in order to keep it secret, the owner of the project simply killed the people of Panmen.

Originally, I was suspicious of this, but when we found a "big well" leading to the bottom, I was desperate to find that the person who died here must be the person from Panmen.

In previous years, there were no decent tools that could build a hole of this scale, carve such a huge face, or even carve such a large well by hand, and no other organization could accomplish this difficult task except for the world's finest organization of craftsmen, Panmen.

My scalp was numb, knowing that the bones of the hundreds of years of sleeping were the predecessors of Panmen, and my heart was sad, and I knelt down with a bang, and kowtowed twice.

Lei Lao Wu was dumbfounded and asked me what's wrong?

I didn't speak, stood up and looked at Wang Zhengtai, and asked Wang Zhengtai what to do next?

Wang Zhengtai pointed to the big round well with a diameter of two meters, and said to me, "Go down." ā€

"Where does this well lead?" I asked.

Wang Zhengtai shook his head: "I don't know." ā€

Just as I was about to go down, there was another conversation from below.

It seems that the movement we heard on the cliff before came from this well.

It's just that they still don't understand what they're discussing. But I'm sure it's the sound of people talking.

Someone's down there?

Moreover, will the other party be the owner of this project? It can't be, this cave seems to be hundreds of years old, and even if the owner of the project had stayed here, he would have died here a long time ago.

Not to mention that a group lives down there, if they intersect and multiply, it is theoretically possible to survive until now.

But when I think about it, I think I'm a fucked up. What do they eat and drink?

Based on what had happened before, I judged that the mercury level must have exceeded the standard, and it was impossible to plant crops. What's more, it's still a stone ground underneath.

Don't talk nonsense, since Wang Zhengtai is the first to go down, I know that Wang Zhengtai must be sure that he will not encounter danger.

So Lei Lao Wu and I also followed closely and followed.

This ancient well is less said to be hundreds of meters, and the wall of the well has obvious traces of artificial carving, which seems to be made out of hairpins. It is impossible to dig out this well from such a solid stone, without enough patience and perseverance.

The air in this well is obviously insufficient, but in order to figure out the situation below, I still hold back my discomfort and follow Wang Zhengtai to climb the rock little by little.

After about half an hour's climb, we went down to the end of the ancient well. But what made me feel incredible was that the ancient well did not lead to any spacious place, but to the bottom, and it came to an end. Under his feet, he was surrounded by sturdy stones.

What's even more bizarre is that there is a stone hairpin used to hairpin stone at the bottom of the stone well, although the metal has rusted, but it is still very sharp, one end of the hairpin into the stone crack, it seems that someone is working when something suddenly happened, temporarily left.

It's just that this one left and never came back.

"Wang Zhengtai, why are you going?" Lei Lao Wu suddenly shouted.

I was looking at the stone hairpin in a daze, and immediately looked for Wang Zhengtai, but found that Wang Zhengtai was like a gecko, climbing up the stone well.

I suddenly blushed for a while, and remembered the stone that the dead man secretly stuffed into me: "Be careful of Wang Zhengtai." ā€

"It's not good, climb out." I immediately shouted, and then climbed up without hesitation.

Lei Lao Wu also scolded "I cĒŽo" and followed me to climb up.

However, our speed was obviously not as fast as Wang Zhengtai, who quickly climbed to the top of the stone well, and then blocked the entrance of the stone well with a stone.

The huge shaking made it impossible for the two of us to grasp the stone, and it fell down with a bang.

This blow can make me fall very lightly, dizzy and swollen, I can't stand up at all, very nauseous, I guess it was a concussion.

Lei Lao Wu simply fainted from the fall.

My day, I have been tricked, Wang Zhengtai must have deliberately lured us here to imprison us.

We used to regard Wang Zhengtai as a savior, which is really ironic to think about.

I hurriedly woke up Lei Lao Wu, and Lei Lao Wu asked us in a daze, where is this?

I said stop talking nonsense and hurry up and climb up.

When Lei Lao Wuyi opened his eyes, he sighed, his whole body was weak, and his whole body convulsed.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm claustrophobic."

Damn it, why is this guy so bad?

"You wait." I said, "I'll go up and see if I can push the stone away." ā€

Lei Lao Wu said don't speak, let me faint for a while.

I immediately climbed up the stone well. The ** of survival forced me to display the potential of my whole body, and I soon climbed to the top.

But the stone was as big as a mountain, and I couldn't move it with the strength of my flesh alone.

I want to use the lever principle to pry the stone open. The only thing that can be used below is the stone hairpin. So I climbed down again and carried the hairpin on my shoulder.

Lei Lao Wu is still fainting, and I don't count on him anymore.

But it still didn't work, the stone hairpin crushed the stone under the head, and my account was also numb from the shock, but the stone showed no signs of moving at all.

I gave up, knowing that even if I had potential, I couldn't pry the stone open, so I had to climb down again for the time being.

"What to do? What to do? Lei Lao Wu panicked like a headless fly, wandering around.

I shouted, "Okay, stop me, keep the dots, and think about it." ā€

"We're dead." Lei Lao Wu said: "We are here, we have no food or drink, after a long time, maybe we don't even have oxygen, won't we be suffocated to death?" ā€

I said, "No, his purpose is not to kill us. Along the way, he had countless opportunities to do so, but none of them. He must have brought us here for some other purpose. ā€

Lei Lao Wu said: "What purpose?" ā€

I glanced at the stone hairpin and said, "He wants us to dig a stone well." ā€

"Digging a stone well?" Lei Lao Wu said: "What does he want this stone well for? ā€

A horrible thought popped into my head.

Will those guys above be tricked here by Wang Zhengtai just to dig a stone well, and when they die of exhaustion, they will be thrown outside at will?

This project must have lasted for hundreds of years, and as soon as someone died, Wang Zhengtai would trick the people from Panmen to come here and work for him.

However, since the project has lasted for hundreds of years, it should not be Wang Zhengtai who deceived the people of Panmen before, maybe it is Wang Zhengtai's family?

It's like the people who deceived the door.

The thought scared me, grass, what a madness.

"We must save ourselves." I mustered up the courage to say.
