After listening to Du Xiaoworm's analysis, Xu Rui and I glanced at each other, took out daggers and immediately excavated the soil on the ground at the location where the forearm bone was found, but to our surprise, there seemed to be no other bones in this position except for this small arm bone......

I stuck the dagger on the ground, panted and said, "Boss, what's going on, it stands to reason that it is impossible to bury the corpses in one place and one by one, how can it not be gathered together?" ”

"I can't figure this out either." Xu Rui shook his head slightly, and he said thoughtfully: "Could it be that this little arm bone has nothing to do with Yang Lunian's case?" That's why it's hanging here alone? ”

"I have a gut feeling that the source of this bone is one of the owners of those five sets of clothing." Du Xiaoworm held the opposite opinion, she looked around and said: "Since the forearm bone is buried here, it means that the real scene is not far from here, let's search harder, and then Wu Dafang and they will search for a piece of the upper part of the Niujiao Peak." ”

"Hmm...... Give it a try. Xu Rui picked up the metal detector placed on the ground, and Du Xiaoworm and I used flashlights to observe carefully. It took half an hour to expand the range to a radius of fifty meters.

At this moment, our ears moved, and we finally heard a heavenly "Didi!" "Sound, this is ...... Issued in the metal detector!

We took it with us this time, we felt that Yang Lunian would come to Niujiao Peak once a week, and it was very likely that he would open up a space on the mountain or occupy the space left by his predecessors, but in order to conceal it, it was impossible to expose the hole to the sun, so there was a cover with enough hardness to add camouflage that was no different from the surrounding environment, so that it was difficult to be seen through and would not have an abnormal feeling when stepping on it, and there were many cases where the cover used metal plates, so the metal detector became an indispensable equipment for this trip.

We froze, two beams of light superimposed on the bottom of the metal detector, we looked at this position, the ground seemed to be a little different from the other places, I knocked hard, it was quite hard.

We squatted down and touched the ground with our hands, there was no softness at all, as if it had been glued into a whole, unlike other positions, although the weather was cold and freezing hard, but we could also cut small clods of soil or something.

I took my gloves off and fumbled with the ground.

Not long after, when I moved my palm about 30 centimeters, I felt a ridge, and when I pushed the soil on the outside of the ridge, I found that it was really the edge of a whole hard clod. I motioned for Xu Rui and Du Xiaoworm to get out of the way a little, and then swiped forward with the dagger against the ridge line, so that the speed was faster, and in less than twenty seconds, the tip of my dagger went back to the original point, which was a square clod of soil about sixty centimeters on the entire edge!

Du Xiaoworm said suggestively: "Xu Chen, you pick a point on one side and stick the dagger against the edge of it to see how thick it is." ”

I nodded, and immediately complied. I pressed the dagger down vigorously, and when it was about nine centimeters, I couldn't press it. I raised my head and said, "It's more than nine centimeters below, and it's less than ten centimeters, as if it's hitting some hard object." ”

Xu Rui also took out the dagger, and he ordered: "Little worm, you contact Wu Dafang and let them gather here." Xiao Chen, let's dig a certain hollow on the outside of the edge of this piece of hard soil, and then try to lift it up, if nothing else, the bottom is the secret of Yang Lunian's every time he comes to Niujiaofeng! ”

Du Xiaoworm took his mobile phone to the side to make a call.

Xu Rui and I dug in a hurry, the dagger was sharp, and the digging efficiency was also block, and it touched the soil like chopping melons and vegetables. Without waiting for Wu Dafang and them to come, Xu Rui and I dug out empty grooves at the edges of this piece of hard soil, and at the same time, we also found something similar to a handle, which was not straight, a bit similar to a Z-shape, the lower edge was connected to the bottom of the hard soil block, and the upper part was buried in the soil next to it.

"Boss, will you open it when Team Wu comes over or will you open it now?" I asked, tilting my head.

Xu Rui immediately said: "Open now." ”

I held the handle, the muscles of my whole body were tense, and when I finished brewing and accumulating, I lifted it up hard, but what I never expected was that I almost lifted myself a stumbling stumble, because it did not sink as I imagined, and it felt like it was opened with half the force, this is a lid, the bottom end is supported by a steel plate of the same size, and the top is full of hard clods, which are indeed glued together.

I lifted the camouflage lid to the largest obtuse angle, about 120 degrees, I let go of my hand, and looked downward, it was a square entrance and exit with a side length of half a meter, and the edges were covered with hard metal bars for ten centimeters, so I couldn't shake it with the dagger before.

The bottom of the cave was so dark that it was impossible to see.

I picked up the flashlight that I had put aside and was about to turn it on and shine it downward, when my ears moved, and I heard three faint voices:

"There is no more food left......

"I'm starving, I'm going to starve to death......"

"Why are you bastard here so late......?"

These three voices are male and female, but how weak are they? It's like a limp kitten humming, and if the wind hadn't stopped for a while, I wouldn't have been able to hear it.

"Boss, there seem to be people down there, at least three." I was surprised to report that before, I left a thought with Xu Rui that Yang Lunian imprisoned the owners of the clothes, but the possibility is very small, but at this moment it has really become a reality!

"I heard that, too."

Xu Rui asked me to project the light of the flashlight below, and he cleared his throat and asked, "Who is down there?" Can you give us an overview of the situation? ”

"You...... You're not him? This is the movement of the woman squeezing out with force, and she said with a little surprise: "May I ask who are you?" ”

"Police."

Xu Rui said unhurriedly: "Take your name...... Oh no, who is 'he' in your mouth? ”

The woman gritted her teeth and said, "The surname is Yang!" But I don't know what his name is. ”

"The head is one size bigger than the average person, right?" Xu Rui continued.

"Right...... Right...... It's him, with a head. Another man softened, "Great...... Great, finally the police came to the rescue. ”

"Boss, without further ado, go down and save people." I propose the way.

Xu Rui took the flashlight and observed for a while, although he couldn't see the prisoners in the cave, he could see the height, about three meters, but there was a metal pillar with a thick bowl mouth in the corner of the hole, and there were regularly distributed protrusions on the top.

In this way, Xu Rui hugged the pillar and climbed down little by little by stepping on the protrusion.

"Sister Du, you're watching from above." I also plunged headlong into a hole in the ground.

I stood beside Xu Rui, and by the light of the flashlight, I scanned the inside of the cave, and there were six almost rotten coffins, lined up on the walls of the cave on the left and right, and there were some scattered bones piled up next to the coffins.

The scene here makes your scalp tingle!

The cave was about ten meters long and six or seven meters wide, and at the end of the cave at the end of the front were five thick metal chains embedded in the stone, each of which had a slightly thinner metal chain attached to the other end, three of which were wrapped around the waists of two women and one man, and the other two were empty.

The two women and the man had no clothes on their bodies, they were so thin that they were almost covered with bones, and because they had not seen the light for a long time, they were now raising their hands to cover their eyes, and there were some empty plastic bags on the ground, as well as some fragments of animal bones and water bottles. Because the chains are not long, and the three of them are spaced apart, they cannot touch each other.

However, everyone's body was covered with scaly wounds, and there were many scars on the skin of the arms, legs, stomach, and shoulders, both new and old, and the thin strips of knife wounds, arc-wide whiplashes, and lumpy cuts were shocking, and some of the hairs on the scalp were torn off by the scalp, but the only one that was intact was the face.

Not only that, but the wound even showed signs of being bandaged or treated.

Xu Rui and I gasped and looked over the coffin, where rope-like objects hung from the walls of the cave, some of them were shriveled and withered, some of them were rotting and the remaining layers of skin, and some of them were charred black as if they had been burned by fire.

They are...... Parts of the corpse!

Let's take a closer look, the so-called rope turned out to be the intestines, this kind of scene, we have seen it once last night, but the scene of Yang Lunian's death is fresh, and it is obviously after a certain period of precipitation here.

Above the lid of a coffin are a variety of tools, ropes, knives, whips, shovels, small forks, wire brushes, etc...... Next to the coffin, above the lid was a white plastic box, for some reason, with a towel draped over it.

The hole was filled with the mixed smell of dirt, decay, and the stench of excrement, and it choked my nose. Fortunately, the entrance and exit of the cave have been opened, slowly allowing fresh air to replace the odor.

At this time, the three prisoners had adapted to the sense of light, took off their hands, revealing their faces, and the expressions on their faces were also very complicated, resentment, fear, horror, joy and dazedness were constantly intertwined, and gradually turned into teardrops flowing out of their eyes, and slid down their chins "ba" and "ba" to the ground.

"Don't be afraid, you're about to be freed...... I comforted and observed the prisoners, my eyes fell on the woman's face, it didn't look like she was more than twenty years old, but because of malnutrition, her face was yellow and thin, but her face was still a little recognizable, and I vaguely felt familiar, a little like ...... Like a photo of Hu Xiao's daughter Zhao Nan!

At this moment, Xu Rui raised his head and looked above the entrance of the cave, and he shouted in his throat: "Little worm, little worm." ”

"Boss, I'm here."

Above, Du Xiaoworm poked her head out, and she asked, "What's going on down there?" ”

"I can't explain two or three sentences, I'll explain later, first turn over our backpacks to see if there is water and food." Xu Rui ordered anxiously: "If there is, come down, and then contact the police station to send some warm clothes, food and water, and then contact the fire brigade to come here, and say that the metal chain with a thickness of three fingers and one finger will be broken." There is also a hospital, with three medically equipped ambulances and the best surgeons on board. ”

After listening to this, Du Xiaoworm realized the seriousness of the situation, and she immediately went to her backpack and threw down two bags of bread, a bag of potato chips, two apples and three half-filled bottles of mineral water.

"Damn, except for bottles of mineral water, none of them were brought by Lao Tzu." Xu Rui muttered, he and I picked up the food and walked to the innermost part of the cave, I first took off my coat and draped it on the woman's upper body, holding back the strange smell: "Are you Zhao Nan?" ”

The woman nodded in surprise, "I'm ......"

I didn't ask any further, and I planned to wait until the hospital had been treated because now was not the time.

"Huh...... You should eat some to replenish your energy first, and you should have the strength to raise your hands. Xu Rui put a bottle of water in front of each of the three prisoners, Zhao Nan divided a bag of bread and an apple, and the other two men were half bread with potato chips and half bread with apples.

The three prisoners devoured their food.

I told you to slow down, I haven't eaten for a long time, and it's not good to eat fast. But the other party didn't listen, and they wiped out their respective food with three or five strokes!
