Chapter 36 The Cellar 03

More than a dozen people stood in front of us in full gear, all brushing like terracotta warriors. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

I silently turned on my flashlight and miner's lamp, and it was clear that our equipment was a little inferior to theirs.

He Chen and Siming stood up from the spot and looked at me with a confused expression, and I just shrugged my shoulders, indicating that I didn't know what was going on.

The scene was a little embarrassing, and I was about to find a topic to speak first, when suddenly a white-haired middle-aged man stood up, first walked to Zhang Shiyang's side, and nodded very respectfully, maybe because we were there, he didn't do it obviously.

Zhang Shiyang seemed to have forgotten our existence, and asked in a cold voice, "What are you doing here?" ā€

The white-haired middle-aged uncle hesitated, "Time is running out." ā€

Five words, it says it all.

I looked at Zhang Shiyang's back, and I suddenly felt that I was wrong, I thought he was a twenty-year-old boy, Zhang Xiyue's nephew, and my relative, so I automatically blocked out some things, didn't think about it, and didn't go to the right seat.

However, these five words made the glass wall that I had built up in my heart collapse instantly.

Zhang Shiyang nodded, and then with a wave of his hand, several people came up and surrounded us, and then one of them said to me: "Safety first, please cooperate." ā€

I looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?" ā€

However, no one responded to me, I just felt a chill in my neck, and when I woke up, I found myself lying on a wooden floor with He Chen and Siming, and there was a strong smell of wine all around, and that kind of intoxicating feeling will never be forgotten in my life.

Because there was no light, it was dark all around, so I had to touch around with my hands, and I found that this was a wooden floor, and there was a mezzanine between the floor, and there were very serious signs of wear, in addition, I also noticed a detail, these woods are all fine golden silk nan, so, when I thought of this, I thought that this was a coffin soaked in wine.

"He Chen, Siming, where are you?" I sat on the ground and didn't dare to move.

In the darkness, I felt that in front of me on the left was He Chen, and on the right was Siming.

He Chen stretched out his hand and patted the floor, then shouted, "We seem to be somewhere." ā€

Siming was calmer, listening to the movement as if he stood up, and after taking two steps, he heard a muffled snort, probably crashing into something.

"You're alright?" I asked, and tried to stand up, but I was a little luckier than him, and when I stood up, I felt that there was still a wide distance above my head, and I tried to touch it with my hand up, but I couldn't reach the roof.

"Siming, what's your situation?"

Siming moved and said, "It's like a staircase up there." ā€

"Stairs?"

He Chen slowly moved towards me, step by step, and said as he walked: "I think this place is an underground wine cellar, the kind with compartments, did you ask, the wine here can be intoxicating, it is a high-quality wine." ā€

"So what?"

The three of us gradually approached each other by virtue of the direction of the voice, and soon, the three of them got together, He Chen said: "The aroma of wine is so strong, this shows that there is a lot of wine around here, let's look for it, under normal circumstances, where the wine jar is piled up, the opposite side is the exit." ā€

I asked, "Where did you get this theory?" ā€

He Chen groped around and said: "Our old house has a wine cellar, which was built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and later my uncle discovered the ruins of this wine cellar, and built a house on it, I went there once when I was a child, so I know." ā€

I also followed his example and looked around, looking for a place with a strong smell of wine, "You still have an uncle." ā€

He Chen smiled, "Isn't this weird?" ā€

"Nothing, just ask."

Siming suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Come here, there's a door here." ā€

Door, this is the best news for us, He Chen and I immediately gave up the search on our side, turned around and walked towards Siming's side.

Touching the wooden plank, I realized that there was indeed a one-meter-five-high door here, but I couldn't touch the deadbolt, which looked a little strange.

"There's something strange about this door, you guys stand back a bit."

As I spoke, I was about to raise my feet, but He Chen grabbed me from behind me and said, "Don't move if this place can not be moved, if you kick it down, what if the building collapses, it will be miserable to be buried alive." ā€

I thought about it right, and let go of the idea of kicking the door and pushed it with my hands, but I found that this so-called door didn't look like a door at all, because it was very strong, and I tried my best to push it at all.

I stood in place, surrounded by darkness and very oppressive, accustomed to the bright lights of the metropolis, lighting has become a habit of life for us, and now, we are in a strange environment, and there is no light, a kind of fear arises spontaneously.

I took a deep breath and tried to relax my mind, at this moment, He Chen suddenly pulled my clothes from behind and walked to the side, Siming also followed, I was curious about how fast this kid moved, in a dark environment, we didn't speak, but he could accurately find our position.

The sound of rustling is as if something is crawling on the ground, and there are a lot of them.

This voice is all too familiar to me, this is a reptile.

It's not a snake, because if it were a snake, the movement wouldn't be so loud, and the bell was also ringing from far to near, I didn't dare to guess, because I was afraid that what I guessed would become reality and appear in front of me.

The faint fragrance spread, and I was wondering what this thing was, but I saw He Chen taking my hand and continuing to walk to the side, and at the same time, Siming followed us closely.

"Is it a rattlesnake?"

When He Chen heard the sound of the bell, he naturally thought of this.

I listened carefully and didn't think it was like it, but I did hear this voice for the New Year, thought about it, and said, "This may be the two-tailed red flame snake, which is an underground species that often appears in the entrance tombs." ā€

"Have you seen it? Is it toxic? He Chen's voice was a little dull.

I said, "Two tails, which means that it has two tails, and there is a triangular bone on the tail, and when the snake crawls, the two tails shake, producing a sound similar to a bell." ā€

"Let's try to avoid it, if it's really a two-tailed red flame snake, it's really our luck, this kind of snake is blind and has no sensitive sense of smell, as long as we don't provoke them, they won't find us."

"So, let's be careful, don't touch them, and, follow them, the two-tailed red flame snake needs to find a water source to replenish water in the early hours of every morning."

He Chen nodded, "In other words, can we go out with them?" ā€

I said, "Cleverly, it's dangerous to follow them, but you can get out of here, be careful, everyone smells so strong here, if we don't find the jar, then the wine should be outside this hut." (To be continued.) )
