Chapter Twenty-Three: Smoke Rises from the Ground

At this time, a thick smoke came out of the thief cave, black smoke, as if there was a fire underground. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When I saw the black smoke, I grabbed it tighter in my hand, and pulled the rope with all my strength, not knowing if the black smoke was poisonous.

When the pangolin finally appeared in the black smoke, I let go of the rope and reached for the pangolin, pulling him one last handful, and letting him crawl out of the hole.

"Is this black smoke poisonous?" Old K covered his mouth and nose and said.

The pangolin waved his arm to dispel the smoke in front of him, spat and said, "Probably not, or I'll die in the hole." ”

As I spoke, I stayed away from the cave.

"Pangolin, what's going on?" I don't know how this black smoke suddenly appeared, I guess the thief hole has been opened, and the black smoke is coming out of the ground.

"It's opened, it's just a small opening, and then black smoke comes out of it." The pangolin wiped his eyes, and it seemed that the black smoke could still smoke his eyes.

"Look at this situation, it must be the smoke that only exists when there is a fire." I will analyze the situation accordingly.

The pangolin sniffed a few times and affirmed, "Yes, the smoke that only exists when there is a fire." ”

"Why is there a fire underground?" Yang Gang asked as he looked closely at the black smoke still rising from the thief cave.

Everyone shook their heads, but immediately all eyes were on me.

"You know what?" The pangolin had a false alarm, and only he had the right to blow his beard and glare at me.

I shook my head innocently: "I don't know, I don't remember that such a thing happened." ”

"Don't say so much about it, hurry up and cover the thief hole, don't let the black smoke rise up, or you will be discovered." The bearded man said as he looked at the black smoke rising into the air.

At this time, everyone reacted, hurriedly looking for something to cover the hole, try to let the smoke disperse, otherwise it will go straight up, the surrounding villagers will see it, they will definitely think that there is a fire in the mountain, and it is strange not to go into the mountain to extinguish the fire, and then call the police, then we will all be exposed, and the consequences are unimaginable.

We covered the hole with a large number of branches, and the smoke dispersed, but it didn't stop coming out, but fortunately it was no longer noticeable, and it should not be noticed.

"Okay, everyone, be vigilant, let's wait, and when the smoke is completely gone, we'll move on to the rest of the work." Yang Gang glanced at the sky, and at this time, there were no patches of black smoke in the sky.

The black smoke is the fog that appears when burning, at this time everyone has a common understanding, only one point everyone is puzzled, this is an ancient tomb, since it is an ancient tomb, the age must be calculated in a hundred years.

"How can there be a fire underground, is it a volcanic eruption?" Old K was the first to guess about this strange phenomenon.

I shook my head and said, "Absolutely impossible, there should be no volcano here, at least not in the past hundred years, even if there is a volcanic eruption, there should be a large amount of burning lava, but there is only smoke here." ”

"The only explanation is that there is something burning in the tomb." The bearded man then said.

Yang Gang immediately retorted to the bearded man and said: "Then it is even more impossible, this is an ancient tomb, once the tomb is closed, even if there is still a fire inside, it will not continue to burn for long, it will be extinguished due to lack of oxygen, how can it burn until now." ”

These are all common-sense knowledge of the understanding of ancient tombs, and for Yang Gang, they are immutable theorems and undoubted objective facts.

"There is a lack of oxygen in the ancient tomb, and the burial goods decay inside to produce combustible gas, and when the pangolin chisels chiss stone slabs, sparks are generated, and the combustible gas is ignited, and then there is a fire in the ancient tomb." Old K then analyzed.

This possibility pangolin has the most right to speak, so he said: "This is impossible, I have this common sense, if so, then I should be the first to know the truth." ”

Apparently, the pangolins don't know how black smoke comes out of the ground.

"If none of this is possible, there will be dirt underneath!" Sun Xiaoya has never been to the tomb, but she has not seen many tomb robbery novels and film and television dramas, and she has not participated in the discussion at this time, and suddenly came out with a sentence, which scared those of us who have been to the tomb, and broke out in a cold sweat.

We are sure that we have encountered a lot of dirty things in the tomb, such as zongzi, such as ghost shadows, such as ghost bones.

After I finished my cold sweat, I thought of the danger in the Qin Tomb, so I said, "This black smoke is the same as the black smoke produced by rotting jade. ”

"The same fart, if it's the same, can you still see me?" The pangolin immediately denied my claim.

"Rotten jade, what is rotten jade?" When Sun Xiaoya heard this word, her curiosity came and asked me.

I looked at her lovely face and smiled and said, "A jade that can turn into black smoke and eat people." ”

"Ah, it's so terrible, and it eats people!" Sun Xiaoya was startled when she heard my explanation, jade is a dead thing, how can it eat people, it is really curious, I wanted to ask me again.

I interrupted Sun Xiaoya's question in time and suppressed her curiosity: "I'll explain to you later, now is not the time." ”

"Okay, don't guess, when the black fog disappears, let's go down and find out, and if you can't say it, we can find the answer." The pangolin broke out in a cold sweat, but unfortunately it was difficult to find water to wash it here.

The pangolin looked around and asked, "Do you see any water anywhere?" ”

"Didn't find out!" I replied, and in fact it is so, that if we go into the mountains together, if we find it, we should all find it.

In fact, the pangolin is not the only person who wants to take a bath, everyone else wants to be so helpless that the environment is like this, so they can only pay attention to it.

I'm also looking forward to taking a hot shower, which not only washes off the stinky sweat on my body, but also relieves my nerves.

"I want to go into the tomb in good condition, so I have to take a shower today and relax." The pangolins insisted on taking a bath at this time, but the conditions were limited at the moment, unless they went down the mountain.

"Well, let's go around in two batches and maybe find water." I really wanted to take a shower, and after digging holes for two days in a row, the sweat from both days was about to condense into salt.

"I don't have to." Yang Gang was on crutches, he didn't want to do much.

"Okay, since that's the case, then we'll have a batch of men and a batch of women except Yang Gang." The pangolin looked at the people present and said.

"Take advantage of the fact that it's not dark, hurry up, I'll stay with the two beauties, and the others will set off to take a bath." Yang Gang sat on a chair and said.

"I'm afraid it's inconvenient for the two of us to bathe in the wild, you bring the water and carry the water back, and we'll find a way to solve it ourselves." Shangguan Yaxiong remembered that he was a daughter and said.

"Yes, Sister Shangguan is right, thank you for your hard work!" Sun Xiaoya echoed in time. (To be continued.) )
