"What? What did you say? What happened to those three people? Chen Ziyang couldn't believe his ears anyway, how could the three people who were tied up run away for no reason like this? And these three people have been knocked unconscious, if you calculate the time, if you are hit like that, it is very likely that you will not even wake up by now, let alone escape.

But when he thought of the diamond under his feet, Chen Ziyang didn't listen to Yang Lei's words, but took the oxygen cylinder and connected it to the catheter, lengthened the rope tied to his waist for a while, and then asked Umbrella Shishuai to help slowly put the rope and drill into the deep well again.

While descending downward, Chen Ziyang said: "I seem to have found the diamond just now, I will be back in a few minutes, take advantage of this time you two are keeping an eye on it, hurry up and pack your things, and when I get it, let's leave here immediately." Things have come to this point, and I can't give up now. ”

Umbrella Shishuai was a little difficult to support Chen Ziyang's weight alone, so he wanted to call Yang Lei over to help, but when Umbrella Shishuai raised his head, he saw that Yang Lei was still standing there with a panicked face, and his expression was very weird, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.

"Don't be stunned there, hurry up and come over to help, I can't hold it anymore." After Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai put Chen Ziyang at the bottom of the deep well, Umbrella Shishuai asked Yang Lei why he looked confused.

"Old umbrella, I feel that something is wrong outside, the disappearance of those three people is so unusual, I can't say what the reason is, but there is that strange feeling, as if these three people did not break free and escaped, but disappeared out of thin air.

And think about it, we used the sneak attack before, knocking them unconscious one after another, if these three people are together, we are not their opponents at all, since they broke free from the rope, why don't they come in to find us, but escape?

Did you think there was something unclean here, and we ate the three of them while we were in there? ”

The three of them have also experienced a lot of strange things together, so after hearing Yang Lei's words and seeing his expression, Umbrella Shishuai knew that Yang Lei was not playing tricks this time, but this matter really confused him.

But now that Chen Ziyang has been drilled into the deep well, he can't get out for a while, even if there is something weird outside, he has to survive here until he comes back.

"Don't worry so much, this big beauty, you help watch the rope, if the rope shakes anything, you call us, the two of us guard the entrance of the passage to prevent anything else from happening." After all, Umbrella Shishuai is a person who has been a soldier, and the more moments like this, the calmer he becomes, and now it is undoubtedly the most appropriate for him to arrange it like this.

However, the two men had no weapons, and could only crouch on both sides of the passage with a sapper shovel, listening quietly. After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement outside, Umbrella Shishuai asked Yang Lei to start packing up his things. The disappearance of the three people outside was too sudden, and they had to be on their guard.

After Chen Ziyang was put under the deep well by the umbrella stone handsome, he realized that because of the limited field of vision just now, he didn't notice that this deep well was not connected to a bottomless abyss, but a crack in the soil layer that was obliquely downward. The soil in the cracks is darker and looks black.

In the process of falling, Chen Ziyang turned on the flashlight, and after looking around carefully, he did not see the reflection of the diamond. After landing, Chen Ziyang was also looking carefully, but he still didn't see the diamond, which was really strange. Chen Ziyang was 100% sure that he hadn't been dazzled before.

And he didn't find the flashlight that he had dropped earlier, and it seemed that the flashlight had rolled down the slope of the fault into the distance. At this moment, Chen Ziyang was really a little anxious.

Although he couldn't feel the heat in the tomb here, Chen Ziyang knew that something strange must have happened in this tomb. Originally, he thought that after coming down here, he would be able to leave with the diamond in three or two minutes, but now there was no clue.

There are still three people guarding themselves, and they can't be allowed to become their substitutes, and if you stay here for one more minute, you will be in danger one more point.

Chen Ziyang looked at the trachea in his hand, the depth of the deep well was about more than 20 meters, which means that with the help of this trachea, he could explore the range of about 80 meters forward. Then he gritted his teeth and decided to walk forward.

The range set by Chen Ziyang for himself is to search the distance of 80 meters, and then return the same way, no matter whether he finds the diamond or not, he must leave here with other people immediately.

Standing where he was, he carefully recalled the situation when he first went down here, because the soil here was darker, so he mistook the space below this deep well for an endless abyss.

This is a visual illusion, Chen Ziyang searched his previous memories, carefully recalling the location of that shining point. Having generally determined a direction that he was not sure of, he untied the rope around his waist and walked forward.

The cracks in this soil layer are not too wide, the distance between the left and right is more than ten meters, but the cracks are very long, and there is still no end in sight after the flashlight shines out for a distance of 100 meters. Walking to the side of the crack, Chen Ziyang groped his way forward along the side wall of the crack, and only then did he notice that there were many horizontal scratches on the side wall of this crack.

The scratches were about a centimeter deep, one after the other, covering almost the entire side wall of the crack. But these scratches are irregular, the length is different, and the depth is also very different, and each scratch is a side of the deeper, very abrupt appeared on the soil wall, and the other side of the scratch gradually slowed down. Comparing it with his fingers, Chen Ziyang found that the width of the crack was about the same thickness as a human finger.

The scratches gave Chen Ziyang a feeling as if the scratches were caused by some kind of creature with long nails that often crawled around the side wall of the crack. With this discovery, Chen Ziyang hurriedly pinned the flashlight to his waist and pulled out the Xuanming Ancient Sword with his hand.

The air in the crack was still full of a strange smell, although Chen Ziyang had been breathing the oxygen in the oxygen cylinder with a trachea, but there was still a small amount of this smell running from his nose and mouth into his mouth, and he inhaled it. Just such a small amount of air in the cracks made Chen Ziyang feel dizzy for a while. Fortunately, thanks to the closed qigong taught by Lao Lu, coupled with the two-pronged approach of oxygen, he was able to persevere.

After groping for a distance of dozens of meters, Chen Ziyang suddenly saw a protruding object on the side wall of the crack. When he got closer, he found that it was a cone-shaped object embedded in the soil, and he took the object down and put it in his hand, and Chen Ziyang looked at it carefully.

The conical object was about ten centimeters long, and the thicker end of the object had a distinct cross-section, which seemed to have broken from something. The thinner end does not have a sharp point, and the tip is spherical and has many scratches on it.

This object gives Chen Ziyang the feeling of being like a fingernail on the claws of a pangolin, except that this object is much larger than the fingernails of a pangolin. Holding this object and comparing it with the scratches on the cracked soil layer, Chen Ziyang found that the object was very consistent with the scratches, and it seemed that these scratches were made by this object.

According to Chen Ziyang's guess, the object should have been relatively sharp, but because of the frequent sliding around on the soil, the tip was rounded. Thinking carefully about the black monster he encountered in this tomb, Chen Ziyang remembered that the black monster did not have such sharp nails, and it seemed that it should be left by something else.

At this moment, out of the corner of Chen Ziyang's eye, he saw as if something suddenly flashed on the dirt wall on the other side of the crack. He had always been vigilant, and he squatted down violently, holding the Xuanming Ancient Sword across his chest, carefully vigilant.

However, the air in the crack made Chen Ziyang's head dizzy, and it was difficult to concentrate. Even now, he felt that a few Venus had appeared in front of him. Even with the air duct supplying oxygen, Chen Ziyang still felt that he couldn't last long here.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see anything flash again, and Chen Ziyang used a flashlight to shine all the front, back, left and right of the entire passage, and found nothing else. The inside of the soil crack is very dark, and the strong flashlight can shine out at a distance of more than 100 meters, and the crack is not too wide, so the objects of 100 meters before and after the entire crack can be seen at a glance. Then he thought that it might have been his delusion caused by the lack of oxygen.

But just when Chen Ziyang had just relaxed his vigilance and took a deep breath of oxygen with the catheter, suddenly, he heard a heavy breathing sound in his ear. Along with the sound of breathing, a thick stench came along.

It's like someone blowing gently in your ear. Even Chen Ziyang felt as if there was a slight heat coming from his ears. It was only after a moment of fright that he hurriedly turned around and swung out the Xuanming Ancient Sword in his hand at the same time.

A black shadow suddenly floated backwards, as if it was Chen Ziyang's sudden movements that frightened it. But after this black shadow jumped, it disappeared into the darkness, Chen Ziyang wanted to use the flashlight to continue to search for the figure of this thing, but because he pinned the flashlight to his waist, and his two hands grasped the trachea and the Xuanming Sword at the same time, the beam of the flashlight could not move according to his thoughts.

The flashlight kept up a little slower, and it was the delay of one or two seconds that made Chen Ziyang not see the appearance of this thing clearly, and at the same time lost the clue of this thing. But he really saw that when the light of his flashlight flashed, there seemed to be a trace of reflection from the direction where the black shadow jumped back before.

Could it be that the reflection I saw before was emitted by this object? So what does that mean you're not seeing the diamond? It's no wonder that after entering here for the second time, I lost the clue of the reflective object, and it turned out that the reflective thing could move.

Now that he knew that the diamond was not here, and the conduit was basically coming to an end, Chen Ziyang decided that it was better to leave here quickly, he had done his best, he couldn't find the diamond, there was no way to fulfill Lao Lu's last wish, and he couldn't complain about all this.

But then he found a very headache for him, that is, the direction in which the black shadow jumped in just now was the direction in which he came down. In other words, if you want to go back the way you came, you will most likely encounter this thing again.

But what should be faced is always to be faced, and now time is more important than anything else, Chen Ziyang turned around, shone a flashlight again, and after finding no clues about diamonds, he strode back.

Because of the previous experience of suffering, this time Chen Ziyang held the flashlight in his hand holding the trachea, but fortunately, the trachea was not too thick, allowing him to grasp two objects at the same time, and Chen Ziyang's right hand had been holding the Xuanming Ancient Sword tightly. The things in this tomb are so weird, so extraordinary, I have to be careful and vigilant.

Although Chen Ziyang wanted to be vigilant to deal with unexpected situations, the air in the tomb made him unable to concentrate, especially the foul smell that had just been sprayed out by the thing behind him was inhaled by himself a lot, this foul smell made Chen Ziyang feel nauseous, he felt that it was very likely that the air in this crack and the stench emitted by the object were poisonous, and he had already shown signs of poisoning.

So Chen Ziyang could only cheer up and let himself walk back as fast as possible, but at this time he fell into a vicious circle, the faster Chen Ziyang moved, the faster the blood flowed, and the more obvious this poisoning-like reaction became.

But if he slows down his movements at this time, it is likely that he will stay in this rift for a longer time, and then he will inhale more of this poisonous gas.

Now Chen Ziyang regretted it, he was in a hurry just now, and he didn't come down with a gas mask at all. The whole thing was originally planned to use the oxygen transmitted by the airway to feed himself, but it was conceived to deal with the underwater situation.

The situation is different now, but I made a huge mistake and still followed the previous plan, so it is no wonder that I fell into such an embarrassing situation.

Just when Chen Ziyang regretted it, he suddenly saw a figure that was not too tall appear under his flashlight, staring at him with a pair of big white eyes.
