The fat man was mysterious, and the stuffy oil bottle on one side never spoke.

I don't know what the hell the fat man is up to, but the attitude of the stuffy oil bottle tells me that he doesn't deny the fat man's claims. The doubts in my mind reached a peak, and I decided not to worry about these things for now, and then I would see.

I thought so, but I was more than capable of doing so, and I was supported by the fat man, trembling, and I had to hook his neck to prevent him from falling.

The hole where it is located is only thirty square meters, in fact, there is nothing to see, the torch turns around, it is all traces of artificial excavation, and there is nothing else. The only special trace of the face is the black sè, and it is not known what minerals are contained in the rocks here.

I followed him through the knife-like passage to the hole on the other side.

There was a hole here, at least twice as big as the one I had stayed in, and it was full of rusty tools, wooden shelves and baskets, and piles of green bricks, and a lot of stone mills I didn't recognize.

To my surprise, there were several shelves in the corner of the cave that reached the top of the cave, and in front of them lay those iron figurines. The roof and walls of the cave are covered with dark green stripes, which are clearer under the light of the searchlight, and exude a glass-like light.

In the middle of the cave, there is an upside-down jar, the face is a god statue, I don't know what the god is, and there are a few points of incense burner in front, very simple.

"What the fuck is this?" I was surprised, it looked like a stone chamber that was still being excavated, and the project was only half done, and there were a pile of tool boxes and raw materials.

"Our guess is that this should be a mine." The fat man said.

"The pit?" I looked around and said, "What type of pit?" Then he looked at the iron figurines and asked, "Is it iron ore?" ”

The fat man shook his head: "It's much more damn worth more than iron ore!" Come and see. He pointed to the dark green stripes on his face, "Can you tell what kind of stone this is?" Think about it, what's the most abundant in this neighborhood? ”

I didn't quite understand what he said, but when I touched the lines of the stone, I felt that it was surprisingly warm and smooth, almost like a girl's face. He didn't talk nonsense, it was really unusual. On second thought, a concept flashed through my mind, "Damn!" Could it be that these stones are ...... Jadeite? ”

The fat man nodded: "I'm not an expert, but in my opinion, even if it's not jadeite, it won't be too bad jade." This should be a very good jade vein. ”

I let out a sigh, my brain jumped, and I remembered all kinds of strange phenomena I had seen in the stone village at the bottom of the lake before.

This cave seems to be part of the underground of the strange ancient building, I have always suspected that there is something in the mountain here, and I feel that the biggest one may be the ancient tomb, but I didn't expect it to be a jade mine.

I didn't expect this, but I've figured it out so far.

There is a hidden jade mine here, which is similar to the ancient tomb, but the value of the jade mine is not comparable to the ancient tomb at all. Gold has a price, jade is priceless, and having a jade mine is rich enough to rival the country.

In this way, all kinds of strict arrangements will be completely reconciled at once - if it is for stealing jade mines, not to mention building a building, it is not a loss to build a castle.

Building this ancient building here, maybe even the King of Yao has a stake in it, and uses his privilege to protect it, the value of the jade mine is too great, and no regime can give up this temptation.

As for why it's hidden? Quite simply, if it is known by any other local force, it will definitely send troops to fight immediately. How much opium can you buy when this thing is exchanged for money?

"I think what happened here, I think it has something to do with the jade mine. For this thing, it is not strange to be weird in the horror yīn, the value is too great. The fat man said.

"And what's going on with these things?" I looked at the iron frame in the corner and the dozen or so iron figurines lying horizontally, and asked, "Are these also tools?" They thought the foreman was too harsh, so they made the hoe look like the foreman and smashed it every day?"

The fat man didn't smile, he didn't seem to have much strength to joke, and said: "I don't know, but you see these things, they are all cast iron tools, and there are iron brackets on the side, I think these iron figurines are used to transport things like us go to large goods." The ore is dug out, sealed directly into the iron figurines and pulled away, and then melted locally. At that time, there was a shortage of soldiers, so this could prevent accidents on the road and break the jade, and secondly, there were carved patterns on the face, which were broken after rusting, and it can be said that it was collected to make bullets. ”

"Oh!" I took a breath and said to myself.

Snakes have snake paths, and people like them can understand it at a glance. I was extremely puzzled before, and I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, I thought that there was a deeper story behind this iron figurine.

After thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong. Did those archaeological teams salvage these pieces of iron just to salvage the jade in them?

Unlikely, although the value of jade is great, with the national strength at that time, it should not be so poor that the archaeological team can salvage it, is there any other use for these things?

The fat man just smiled, and his expression was not relaxed. Walking slowly around the cave wall, I continued: "However, looking at the scale of this mine, it seems that they have not excavated much, and the breadth of mining is not high! ”

"The scale of the jade mine is not very large, this is not the key to the problem," he straightened me a little, "You fat man, what I want you to see, it's not these things." ”

I turned my head and looked around, but I didn't see anything else that attracted attention, so I asked, "What are you trying to make me see?" ”

The fat man raised the torch and asked, "Didn't you find out?" There are no exits here. ”

I was shocked, I grabbed him one second before, and the next I understood. Hurriedly looked around the entire cave, and when I saw it, a cold sweat came down.

Indeed, these two holes are not big, and I didn't see any places to go out just now.

The small hole of more than 30 square meters next door is very simple, there is definitely no exit, it is a little bigger here, but there is also no hole.

My mind was a little confused, and I immediately turned around, and the fat man helped me through the caves on both sides again. This time, I was completely focused on finding the exit, and after reading it, I felt cold all over my body, and I could hardly speak.

The fat man is right, there is no exit here. All the walls of the cave are monolithic rocks, and not even a single crack can be found.

"What's going on?" I looked at him, "How so?" ”

He looked bitter and didn't speak.

I subconsciously looked at the top of the cave, and if there was no cave wall, it was possible to be on the top of the cave.

The roof of the cave is very low, you can reach out and touch it, and if you look around, it is the same as touching the rock wall, there is nothing, it is completely a whole rock.

The fat man sighed, waved his hand and said, "Don't look at it!" We've looked for every inch of it, and these two holes are completely closed. ”

I couldn't accept: "How is that possible?" ”

The fat man sighed, "I don't know, but it's true." The hole, as if ......" he paused, his tone a little hesitant "was completely sealed, as if it had been excavated from within. ”

I was stunned for a moment, shook my head and said, "Absolutely impossible, if so, how did we get in?" ”

He asked me to lean against the mountain rock, looked at the stuffy oil bottle that followed, shook his head, and said, "I don't know." ”
