Chapter 109: The Ghost in the Tomb 2
"! Did we dig the wrong ten meters deep, and we haven't dug anything, don't say anything, even if it's an aquifer!" Although the wild bull was complaining, the Luoyang shovel in his hand did not have any intention of stopping
In this regard, I had to shake my head when digging beside him, in fact, starting from eight meters, everyone who came down couldn't help but curse a few words, and then continued to excavate, no matter how to say that it was so deep, if you don't continue, do you want to give up this, who can let everyone be willing to give up! After all, this is a small project that took six people ** days! Just like the bull said, if you can't dig up a treasure, even if you dig out a groundwater, you should have done a good thing for the villagers, and digging a well is not in vain
I gritted my teeth, used all my strength, and shoveled down the dirt under my feet, but I had enough strength to stick the sharp part of the shovel into the dirt
"I'm rubbing! It's not so unlucky!"
Everyone should know that when the whole shovel is inserted into the soil, it is unlikely that you want to shovel out the soil, after all, the principle of carrying the rod is there, and the vertical angle almost does not use any strength, so if you want to take out the shovel, just pull it out, if you want to bring a shovel of dirt out, then you don't have to think about it
In that case, I naturally chose to pull out the shovel, and besides, I didn't have a shovel and shoveled woolen dirt, but, to my great surprise, I couldn't pull the shovel out, as if the shovel was embedded in the swamp, because I had used up all my strength, and now I don't even have the strength to pull the shovel out of the dirt
"Haha! Who told you to stick your shovel in the dirt so hard? Deserve! Quack!" The bull was gloating and smiling on the side, but he used a shovel under his hand to shovel the soil next to my shovel little by little, and anyone who has experience in farming knows that this can reduce the force between the shovel buried in the soil and the soil
Seeing that the shovel was about to reveal its original appearance, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and held the shovel with all my might, that is, pulled it out of the soil
"Be careful!" It was also my pull that the brute bull hurriedly screamed loudly
It turned out that the shovel I pulled out, there was a claw full of dirt on it, and I couldn't see the shape clearly, I couldn't pull out the shovel so hard, it turned out that the shovel was stuck in the claw
Fortunately, what made me and the bull have a false alarm is that what I pulled out was just a bony arm of unknown age, and there were no ghosts that we expected
"What's wrong, what's wrong, you're all right?"
Brother Xiao, who was responsible for pulling the rope to the dirt above, heard the sound of the bull, and hurriedly shouted at us in the pit Although Brother Xiao carries a flashlight with him, but to be honest, at a distance of ten meters, the flashlight is basically impossible to shine unless it is that kind of special equipment, unfortunately, Brother Xiao, they obviously can't find that kind of channel to buy
Hearing this, I exhaled lightly and responded, "Nothing! Dig out a skull arm, and now that you've dug up this kind of thing, I think it's probably not far from the goal, so let's get everyone ready."
I said this, but I asked Brother Xiao to pull me and the bull up from the bottom of the pit, one is to discuss the next matters, and on the other hand, it is also to let the two of us have a good rest, how to say that we have been digging for two hours, and we have already lost much physical strength, in order to face the unexpected situation that may happen next, we have to slow down for a while
Sitting on the ground, I picked up the kettle next to me and gulped down the water without the slightest hint of the fact that the water in the kettle was cold because it was cold now
"Shugui and they have dug out a skull arm just now, which means that the direction we dig is correct, and it also means that we are not far from the goal, so next, we should always be vigilant against the best people who go down to dig the soil, and each person is pasted with the spirit rune given by Shugui, so as to increase the safety a little" Brother Xiao picked up the wooden stick and drew a map of the southeast and northwest on the ground, and continued: "Shugui used a compass to set the position, he said that the auspicious position here is the southeast, according to the common sense of people's death, Generally, it will be buried in this line, but because this Li Si is a little opposite, so Shugui also speculates that it is possible that Li Si's coffin will be in the position of the murderer, and the northwest direction is that line, so once the passage into the mausoleum is opened, we only need to take these two lines, as for the rest, if you can't go, our primary goal is still to find map fragments, and when you find map fragments, what valuable hard goods everyone brings one piece just in case, This time, Xiao Liuzi and Manniu will stay here and be responsible for picking us up, because we will probably still come out of here when we arrive, so you should always pay attention to the pulling of the rope and our voice, okay, that's all there is to it now, there is no difference between everyone."
Brother Xiao has arranged it in such detail, who will have a different opinion, even if there is, it is Xiao Liuzi and Manniu, how to say it, they all want to enter the mausoleum, not to respond outside, but since Brother Xiao has arranged it this way, even if they want to disobey, they can't do it, so they resisted twice weakly, so they had to obediently accept the order
How to say it, Brother Xiao arranged for Manniu and Xiao Liuzi to be picked up outside, one is to take care of Xiao Liuzi, after all, his body has been poisoned by scorpions, even if he has been discharged from the hospital for more than 20 days now, and the other is that Manniu has great strength and can quickly pull us up from below, therefore, such an arrangement is completely reasonable, and everyone will naturally have nothing to say
However, that was all after the arrangement into the mausoleum, and now it is only a skull arm dug up, and I don't know how thick the mud layer is when the hole in the mausoleum is opened
In this regard, the revolution has not yet succeeded, everyone still has to dig hard, and soon, Brother Xiao and the mouse tied a rope around their waists and a spirit talisman on their chests to go down, and after a while, they saw that from the soil they dug out, from time to time there were some skulls, teeth, or something, and from time to time there were some ceramic fragments, maybe those things are very valuable for studying history, but for us, that is, some garbage, unless a very complete porcelain is dug up, it will be treated as a treasure by us
To our regret, although occasional ceramic fragments have been excavated, none of them are completely and complete, that is, only one-third of the porcelain bowl and the rest, not even a single copper coin of little value, can be excavated
Maybe I'm really tired, just on the stool with my eyes closed, it didn't take a few moments, or I fell asleep, if it wasn't for Xiao Liuzi running over to call me, I might not have woken up
"Brother Shugui! Brother Shugui! Wake up! Big brother, they have already dug through the hole to enter the mausoleum."
In the haze, I heard someone say that the passage into the mausoleum had been opened, and I thought I was dreaming, but when I felt that my face was patted and my nose was caught and I couldn't breathe, I was cleverly awakened from sleep
"What six sons, what did you just say?"
"Great, Brother Shugui, you're awake! I've been calling you for almost two minutes!" Xiao Liuzi looked at me happily, and then continued: "I just said that the eldest brother and the mouse brother have opened the passage to enter the mausoleum, and now they have entered the mausoleum, and the thin brother is also preparing to go down, you should hurry up."
"Ahh I hurriedly answered, wiping my hand on my face, but I thought in my heart: Brother Xiao, why didn't they wait for us to go in
Thinking about it, I didn't slow to put my backpack on my back and prepare everything, then tied a rope around my waist, and slowly slid down the ten-meter-deep pit with the thin man
By the light of the flashlight above my head, I could clearly see that there was a dark cloud under the pit we had dug before, which was a sign of the underground
It was about thirteen meters or so of sliding, and the thin man and I finally stepped on the hard stone road that made people feel extremely safe, with the help of the light, the thin man and I couldn't help but sigh that the place we were in turned out to be an arched passage, which was about more than three meters high and more than two meters wide, completely like a tunnel, and it was even more incredible for me and the thin man to feel that there were murals on the walls on both sides of the passage, but it may have been too long, due to the erosion of the years, Many of them were no longer obvious, and what made me and the thin man even more puzzled was that the air in the passage was actually circulating with the outside world, because as soon as we entered the passage, there was no discomfort in our breathing
According to Brother Xiao's experience, he once said that the air in the mausoleum that is buried underground and has just been opened is poisonous, so when they are preparing things, gas masks are indispensable, but the gas masks we hold in our hands have not been put on, and we find that this thing seems to be a little redundant
In that case, put the mask back in your bag, and if you don't need it now, you might use it later! Of course, the main thing now is to untie the rope around your waist first
Just as the two of us had untied the rope from our waists, suddenly there was a movement from the darkness not far away, and a series of echoes immediately occurred in this long passage
Fortunately, just as the thin man and I were about to make a defense, the movement slowly leaned towards us, only to hear a very familiar voice coming: "Shugui, is it you?"
Hearing this, the thin man and I glanced at each other, and both saw a hint of relaxation in each other's eyes, after all, before the two of us, Brother Xiao and the two of them had already entered the mausoleum, and after the two of us came down, we didn't see or hear their movements, so naturally I couldn't help but feel worried in my heart, and now I heard the voices of the two of them, and naturally the worried heart calmed down all of a sudden
In a few breaths, I saw the figures of Brother Xiao and the mouse wearing flashlights on their heads appear in front of me and the thin man
"Why don't you wait for us to come in, just come in, it's okay to come in, it's really worrying us for a while" Brother Xiao glanced at them angrily, and then asked: "How is it, you guys walked around here for a while, did you find anything?"
"Look! I guessed what Shugui would say! Remember to give me the money when you go out!" Brother Xiao clapped his palms and said happily: "Thank you Shugui, let me win a thousand yuan of mice, and when I go out, Brother Xiao invites you to drink flower wine!"
"I'm rubbing! You don't call me to bet, otherwise I can win a thousand yuan and go to have a show, I really regret why I have to wait for Shugui to come down together" The thin man exaggerated and made a very regretful expression
