Chapter 52: Detonating the Entrance

As soon as he heard that the compass had turned, Jiao Ba suddenly came to his senses, he immediately looked at it, and said excitedly, "There is an effect, the compass is starting to react." ”

"Didn't you say this thing was going around all the time?" I'm not interested anymore, I don't know how capable this little thing is, I just know that I've been tossed several times, and I haven't seen any effect.

"This time it's different, the compass is really working." He immediately stood up, looked in a circle, and said, "According to the layout of this imperial tomb, combined with the guidance of this compass, I speculate that the entrance to the tomb should be on the left side of the main tomb. ”

"To the left of the main tomb? Which side exactly? "Since I came here, I can't even tell the difference between east, south, west, and north.

"It should be south, the compass shows this, Brother Yi, let's go down and look for it in the south." Jiao Ba didn't wait for me to get up, and rushed directly down the slope.

"Wait for me." I quickly got up and followed.

We rushed all the way to the bottom, Chang Shan and Li Xin were still waiting for us below, and after seeing us come back, Chang Shan hurriedly came over and asked, "How is it?" Found the entrance? ”

"It's pretty much there, it should be over here." Jiao Ba stretched out his hand and pointed to the left of the large mound, which was still desert, but at least it was still in the building of this mausoleum.

"Are you sure?" Li Xin asked.

"I'm not completely sure, let's do our best, let's go." Jiao Ba held the compass in his hand and walked forward.

The rest of us held the gun and patiently followed him, Jiao Ba kept holding the compass to look, every time he walked for a short time, he would stop and take a look, none of us dared to say much, Jiao Ba at this moment was more serious than ever, without a trace of a smile on his face.

After we had walked a distance, Jiao Ba stopped again, and suddenly lay on the ground, with his ears on the ground, as if listening to something, I finally couldn't help but ask, "Hey Ba, what are you doing?" In the end, I found it. ”

"Don't talk." Jiao Ba glared at me angrily, and I had to quickly shut up, at this time he was the boss, and we had to listen to him all.

After a few minutes, Jiao Ba got up and said, "The entrance to the tomb should be right below here." ”

"Down here?" I took a quick look, and it was less than a few kilometers away from the big mound, not far away, not close, and almost to the left wall.

"Well, it's down here, but I don't know how deep it is." Jiao Ba put the compass away and said seriously.

"Can you be specific, is the entrance around here, or where?" Martin asked anxiously.

Jiao Ba stomped his feet and said, "It should be right under my feet, we have to find a way to open this entrance." ”

I crouched on the ground and looked at it and said, "I don't see anything at all?" And the ground is all yellow sand, and we have to dig it up with a shovel, otherwise how can we go down? ”

"No, big man, you take out the explosives, and we'll just blow up the entrance." Jiao Ba said calmly.

"Explode? Normally, the entrance is sealed, can it be exploded? Chang Shan asked suspiciously.

Jiao Ba took out a knife at this time, drew a big circle on the ground, he pointed to the middle of the circle and said, "Normally, the main entrance to the tomb will definitely be sealed, but there will be a side door, I think there should be a side door here, or a passage, as long as it is blown open, you can go directly to the entrance of the tomb below, and along this road, we can go directly to the main tomb." ”

The rest of us looked at each other, and Jenny asked, "How sure are you?" ”

Jiao Ba stood up impatiently and said, "Please, eldest sister, even if I am only one percent sure, what should you do?" To fry or not to fry? If there's a better way, then you can think about it, and I'll have to worry about it. ”

"If only Mai Lao was here, I think he would have a good way." Martin said with a sigh.

"Yes, it's been so long, and Mai Lao hasn't caught up, will something happen to him? My general guarding the mausoleum is very difficult to deal with, why don't we go back and take a look? Jenny looked left and right and asked for everyone's opinions.

"Look at what, don't worry, Mai Lao can take care of himself." Jiao Ba immediately vetoed it.

Jenny whispered, "But I'm still a little worried, it's been so long, and I don't have any letter at all." ”

Jiao Ba looked at her helplessly, "I said Jenny, you're thinking a little too much, what's the use of going back now?" If Mai Lao couldn't fight him, he would have died at his hands a long time ago, even if we went back, what would we do? Nothing can be changed, if he is still alive, he will definitely catch up, you don't have to worry about this. ”

"Jiao Ba is right, if Mai Lao is really dead, will that big guy let us go? Presumably they have been killed a long time ago, but now they haven't chased after them, and it's likely that they are still fighting, so let's just wait patiently. Chang Shan held Jenny's shoulders and said earnestly.

"Okay, let's talk less nonsense, in a word, to blow up or not to blow up." Jiao Ba pointed with his hand and asked a little irritablely.

"Big man, take out the explosives, we'll blow up the mouth." I choose to believe Jiao Ba, there is no reason to continue to wait, if I wait for Mai Lao to come back, maybe it will be the Year of the Monkey, and I always feel that Mai Lao is deliberately avoiding us.

The big man hurriedly took out the explosives from his backpack, and he carried a total of six bundles of explosives, each of which consisted of five tubes of explosives, and the power of this bundle of explosives was amazing, enough to disable a heavy tank.

We plan to use four bundles of explosives to place them in four points along the circle drawn by Jiao Ba, up, down, left and right, but before placing them, we first have to dig four and a half meters deep pits under the yellow sand, and then link the fuses of the four bundles of explosives and put them into the dug pits.

After all the preparations were made, I asked everyone to withdraw a hundred meters away, leaving only Chang Shan and me to wiring the wire, the power of this explosive is too great, any fragment can blow people up and seriously injure them.

But at this time, I found an important problem, the fuse is too short, only five or six meters away from the explosives, this is a big problem, such a close distance, who dares to ignite a fire, a few seconds of effort can blow people up, this is not a joke.

Jiao Ba saw that I hadn't moved for a long time, so he ran over from a distance and asked, "What's wrong, Brother Yi?" ”

"The fuse is too short, too close to the explosives to ignite." I crouched on the ground and frowned.

It's hard for me, it's not a question of daring, if a grenade is powerful, but it's four bundles of explosives, enough to blow up a building.

"Is there no fuse?" Jiao Ba squatted down and asked.

I shook my head and said, "There's nothing extra unless we remove the other two explosives, but then those two explosives will be scrapped, and we'll be out of explosives if there's still something useful in the back." ”

"What the fuck, how good is this, hey, any of you have extra explosives." Jiao Ba turned to the others and asked.

"No, we don't have any extra explosives." Li Xin waved his hand and shouted loudly.

"There are only a few explosives in total, all in the hands of the big man, we don't have any excess, is there any problem?" Chang Shan walked over and asked.

"The fuse is too short to detonate, otherwise something big will happen, and we have to find a way." I have a headache, and the more anxious I am, the more troubled I am.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll light it, just hurry up." Chang Shan said very gentlemanly.

I shook my head and said, "No, unless you don't want to live, this fuse is very fast, and it can detonate explosives in an instant, so close at this distance, you don't even have a chance to escape, and you will be blown to pieces." ”

"So what do you say? Someone has to detonate this explosive? Chang Shan looked at me and asked.

I looked at the yellow sand behind me, my head was spinning rapidly, I had to think of a foolproof solution, this is not a trivial matter, once I make a mistake, I will die.

"Brother Yi, if it doesn't work, just come hard, I don't think there's anything I can do." Jiao Ba was a little impatient.

At this time, it occurred to me that I could dig a pit nearby, and after the explosives were detonated, I could just jump into the pit, which may not be 100% safe, but at least more than half of the safety guarantee, which is the best way at present.

"I thought of it, old eight, let's dig a pit about two meters deep here, so that we can ensure a certain amount of safety."

"Dig deep pits, don't be kidding, we don't even have shovels, how can we dig them? It's a waste of time, no, I'll do it, just run faster, you two stay away. ”

As he spoke, he was about to start a fire, but I grabbed him on the shoulder and said, "What are you crazy about, before you can run far, this explosive will explode, and it will kill you directly." ”

"That's... How do you say? Is it really digging? Jiao Ba asked with an ugly face.

"Dig, let's do it quickly."

We don't have any tools, so we can only use knives to dig, but the only fortunate thing is that the yellow sand in this place is relatively soft, not as strong as I imagined, it is estimated that the mausoleum of Emperor Jianwen should be fixed by other methods, otherwise the yellow sand here is so soft, this mausoleum would not have collapsed long ago.

In about half an hour, a few of us barely dug a small pit, and after the incident, I asked Jiao Ba and Chang Shan to stay away, and I wanted to ignite the explosives myself, after all, I still have some experience, and I am better than them.

"Then be careful, let's go over." The two of them ran in the opposite direction, Jenny and Li Xin were both over there, and now as long as we blew the entrance open, we could go straight to the ancient tomb.

I took out a cigarette and lit it, first took two puffs, let my nervous mind relax, a few seconds later, I lit the fuse with the cigarette, when the fuse sounded, I immediately turned around and ran, rushed to the pit dug before, I jumped into the pit, holding my head in both hands, my whole body curled together, just when I was ready, 'coaxing' four loud noises in a row, the whole earth trembled, and the yellow sand almost buried me.
