The sudden noise frightened us again, and we were now "stakes" again, and everyone remained in the same posture as they had just heard the sound, like puppets. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The sound that came from it can be determined that it is not the sound of Wang Changxing firing a shotgun, could it be that there is a collapse somewhere?

We returned to normal, Lao Liu Tou let go of the hand that grabbed the barrel of the gun, and he said to Wang Changxing with a slight anger: "Xiao Wang, why are you so impulsive? Don't do that next time. ”

Wang Changxing said: "We are sad, these two goods are gloating there, and I am angry." I didn't want to kill them, though, I just scared them. ”

Although Wang Changxing said lightly, I saw that Cui Sheng and Cui Deng were still trembling.

This matter has passed, and now the most important thing for us is to find out where the sound came from, and we have to find a way to get out quickly, otherwise, Lao Cai will lose his life, and we will have to go in and squat for a few years if we can't get it right. Besides, there must be something dirty here, but it is an ominous place, and it must not be left for long.

When we were discussing, Lao Liu Tou said: "Don't say it, it was the beacon ants who dug the robbery hole, it was the sound of the robbery cave collapsing, and there was still very high and thick soil and stone on the robbery hole, and we were completely trapped in the Han tomb!" ”

Old Liu Tou's words stirred up a thousand waves, originally waiting for the ants to return to the nest, we still have hope of going out, but once the hole collapses, we are completely trapped in this Han tomb, we have become a "living burial" at this time, if we can't get out, the end will be the same as Liu Er's family of the big landlord who stuffed in. But what about the bones of the people in this Han tomb? What the hell is all this going on? The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I almost went crazy.

We don't have to go to the tunnel to see it, whether the ants return to the nest or not, we can't dig the hole when it collapses, or we have to dig for a long time.

Why? Because the tomb road of this Han tomb is a big ditch in the mountain, the tomb road is filled with earth and stones, the closer to the tomb door, the thicker the soil and stone on the top, the thickness should be from the bottom of the tomb to the top of the mountain, that is to say, the soil and stone above the tomb door are about twenty or thirty meters high, and the width of the tomb road is about three meters, so the amount of soil and stone is very large.

The large amount of earth and rocks is only one problem, and the other problem is that the cave has collapsed, and the soil and stones in the tomb have become soft. If we dig a hole from the inside of the tomb door, the earth and stone will continue to collapse, if we want to dig a way out, we almost have to dig most of the soil and stone in the tomb into the Han tomb, with a few folding shovels in our hands, I don't know how to dig until the year of the monkey.

As the saying goes: there is no way to heaven. It's very simple to save us, if someone outside knows that we are trapped in the Han tomb, they will find a large excavator to dig up the earth and stones in the tomb in half a day. But the problem is that even if the cave doesn't collapse, our mobile phones have no signal, and the cave collapses, and we are even more isolated from the world.

At this time, I had a terrible thought in my heart: Could this Han tomb be a trap?

There are insectivorous plants in nature, and their petals secrete sweet sap, and once the insect is attracted to eat the sap, the petals of this plant will immediately close and trap the insect inside to digest it. At this point, I feel like we're cheap insects.

When Lao Liu Tou came in, he said that the thief hole we dug was like a dog gnawing on it, and it would collapse as long as it rained heavily, and it didn't rain outside, but why did these ants gnaw on the soil and rocks in the thief hole? They obviously want to dig up the hole, are they trapping us and we become their food? Thinking of the idiom "ten thousand ants eat bones", I couldn't help but shiver, and a layer of goosebumps got on my body.

Silence, silence, it was silent in the back room of the Han tomb at this time, and only the sound of our breathing could be heard. After experiencing a few frightes, we have become numb, no matter how distressed we are at this time, it is useless to complain about the heavens and people, we came in to find the pearl of the night, and the birds died for money, even if we died here, we also brought it upon ourselves. Lao Cai found a diary, and got carried away and took us to hunt for treasure, he had died tragically at this time, which is the best example of "people die for money", and he is still called Lao Cai.

And Cui Sheng and a few of them couldn't walk when they saw the cheap, but they just entered this dangerous ancient tomb, they really fucking came to find death, it seems that if people want to die, no one can stop them, and they can only blame themselves. The so-called world has no love for no reason, and there is no hate for no reason, and you must be responsible for what you do. It's just that the dignity point of how everyone dies next is the problem.

Now I feel that the one we are most sorry for is Lao Liutou, hey....... If Lao Liu Tou grabbed us with a gun last night and handed us over to the Public Security Bureau, it would have been forgotten, but it was because of a broken diary that connected us. The old man treats us well, but a few of us tricked the old man into digging the grave with us, and I constantly suspect that the old man has some ulterior motives and something to hide from us.

When I think of death, I think of my family and friends. When the sun rises again tomorrow, billions of people around the world will get up, sleep and sleep, and what should everyone do. As for us, trapped in a dark tomb, we are slowly dying in despair, never to see the dazzling sunlight again, no longer hear the wind, and no longer breathe fresh air. No wonder many people don't want to die, mainly because of their mental imbalance---- why do I have to die while you should eat and drink?

When I was in the fugue, Zhang Yuan broke the silence and asked Lao Liu, "Master Liu, what did you say just now?" Beacon ants? Do you know those ants? ”

Zhang Yuan is really careful, it is estimated that Lao Liu Tou inadvertently said the word "beacon ant" just now, I really didn't care, thanks to Zhang Yuan brought it up, his question suddenly brought up our spirits, we quickly sat up straight, everyone was looking forward to Lao Liu Tou's answer.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess that Lao Liu Tou knows about these ants, otherwise he would not have led Cui Wu and Cui Liu to the ear chamber to provoke those ants.

What we hope is that Lao Liu Tou not only understands these ants but also understands this Han tomb, I suspected that he heard his grandfather Liu Er talk about this Han tomb, I hope this is true, I hope that Lao Liu Tou will take us out of this Han tomb.

Old Liu Tou did not directly answer Zhang Yuan's question, he asked us: "How much smoke do you still have?" The smoke on my body is almost gone, and if there is no smoke, it is uncomfortable. ”

I touched my trouser pocket and in my tool bag, I still have a few packs of cigarettes, Zhang Yuan and Wang Changxing also have them, and Lao Cai also has cigarettes on his body and in his bag, but we didn't take them, he was addicted to cigarettes when he was alive, and those cigarettes were left for him to smoke in that life.

Old Liu Tou was very happy to hear that we still had a lot of cigarettes, so he lit one and smoked a few puffs and told us about the "beacon ants".

As for how this kind of ant appeared here in the ancient mountain, Lao Liu Tou didn't know, he hadn't seen this kind of ant on the mountain, he just heard what his predecessors said, and what he told us was also his hearsay.

I don't know what the specific scientific name of the beacon ant is, but this kind of ant has a habit of being afraid of heat and the sun, if they are exposed to the sun for more than ten minutes, they will burn, so they choose to live in ancient tombs and caves, hide in dark and cool places during the day, and will look for food at night.

So why do these ants burn? It has to do with the food they eat. As we all know, almost all ants eat meat, even the small ants in the house will gnaw bones, and this beacon ant is mainly meat-eating. But they don't dare to go out during the day, so they only come out at night to catch insects and eat. But most of the insects are hiding at night, and it is not easy to catch them.

They also have an instinct ---- secrete formic acid, which is corrosive and can help them burrow in the cracks of stones. With this characteristic, it is convenient for them to make nests in mountains and rocks and ancient tombs. Not only that, but they can also burrow into other graves and bite through coffins to eat the bones inside.

This ant does love to eat bones, and formic acid can help them digest, so they even eat the white bones in mass graves. Bones contain phosphorus, and the more bones they eat, the more phosphorus they have in their bodies, and phosphorus is flammable, so as long as this ant is exposed to the sun, it will catch fire, and if it is ignited by someone, it will also catch fire. It is this characteristic that beacon ants do not come out of their burrows during the day, so they are rarely seen.

As for why it's called beacon ants? It's just a legend, saying that in ancient times, when the two countries were at war, the people who died in the war were left on the beacon tower, and the beacon ants didn't care about the sunlight in order to eat the bones, and as a result, the beacon tower was ignited by the sun, so it was named beacon ants.

Lao Liu Tou also said that in the early years, there was a war here in Gushan, and there were many corpses in the open space surrounded by several mountains, and the villagers saw this kind of ant when they went to the corpse pile to find silver dollars at night, and they ran out in the winter, and some people were bitten by them, and everyone knew about this kind of ant, but after cleaning up the battlefield, people never saw them again.

Since this kind of ants can eat bones, and they are very good at making holes, they should have had enough food when the corpses were not burned in the early years, but later they were all burned, and the bones turned into ashes, do these ants still eat ashes? Otherwise, how could so many ants in this Han tomb survive? Lao Liu Tou also said that the north side of the mountain is full of graves, depending on this possibility.

When I saw the ants in the stone cave in the ear chamber, they may have been rushing to find food, and when Cui Wu or Cui Liu put their arms into the stone cave, these ants smelled meat, and they didn't immediately come out of the nest?

As for the soil and rocks they dug the hole, it is estimated that the blower outside has been blowing hot air into the Han tomb, and these ants can't stand it anymore, so they have to dig the soil to block the hole.

After listening to Lao Liu Tou talk about the characteristics of this kind of ant, we suddenly realized, of course, what we are most concerned about is how to leave this Han tomb.
