Chapter 281: Last Chance
Although the wind here was loud, the sudden sound of gunfire was really heard by the three people. At this time, the three of them suddenly remembered that this should be the gunfire of the shotgun that Ness was carrying.
The three men who were frowning were overjoyed at this moment, Ness must still be alive, and the purpose of his shooting was to hope that the three of them would find out where he was. But then the three of them were stunned, the gunshot just now came too suddenly, the three of them did not have the slightest preparation, and at the same time, because the grassland space was empty, although the three people heard the gunshot, but there was no way to judge the location of the gunshot.
Judging by the sound of the gunshots, the place where the shots rang out should not be very far from where the three people were. So while the three of them searched cautiously together, they pricked up six ears and cheered up twelve points, hoping to hear the gunshot again.
After waiting for a while, the second gunshot finally remembered. This time, because the three of them were well prepared, they roughly judged the direction of the gunshot, so the three of them distanced a few meters from each other and looked for the place where the gunshots rang out.
Umbrella Stone knew that this shot was likely to be their last chance to find Nice, as Nice's double-barreled shotgun could only be loaded with two shotguns at a time. It seems that Ness's action must have been inconvenient, otherwise he might have fired earlier, instead of nearly two hours after a few people had been looking for him.
Because of this, it is likely that the second gunshot is the last clue that Nice can give them, and if they can't find it again this time, there really is no chance. When they got to the vicinity of the gunshots, they stopped hitting the grass with sticks and switched to sharp weapons.
Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai took out the baby sapper shovels of the two of them, and Chen Ziyang also pulled out the hundred swords. If Liu Cong saw Chen Ziyang using this treasure like this, he would definitely be angry. But at this time, I really can't take care of it, these tall grasses on the ground are really too obscured from view.
Although the grass is only knee-high, the grass here is very dense, and if there are any ditches or holes in the ground, they will be blocked by these grasses.
A few people had pondered before, this Nice was likely to have stepped on the ground and fallen to the bottom, otherwise, on the grassland of this Ma Pingchuan, it was impossible to hide a person, and only in the underground that a few people could not see could hide a figure as big as Nice.
When a few people finally found a crack in the ground, Umbrella Shishuai was annoyed. It turned out that he had searched for this place just now, but because the crack was relatively narrow, and the grass nearby was relatively dense, blocking his vision, he did not find this crack in time, resulting in wasting such a long time in vain.
Now what Umbrella Shishuai hopes most is that Nice is safe and sound, otherwise he may really regret it for the rest of his life, and regret why he didn't look carefully when he looked for it just now.
This crack is roughly olive-shaped, narrow at both ends and wide in the middle, the length of the crack is about more than a meter, and the width is less than a meter, which is just enough for a person to fall into. The three men lay on the edge of the crack, shouting Nice's name. After waiting for a while, some small whining sounds came from the cave.
Hearing Nice's answer, several people finally put their minds at ease, and finally found it, and this Nice should still be alive. The inside of the crack is very dark, and I don't know how deep it is. Chen Ziyang hurriedly asked Yang Lei to bring over the horse ridden by the four people, the horse had some equipment on its body, and there was a flashlight for the night, and now this flashlight was exactly what several people needed most.
When Yang Lei went to lead the horse, Chen Ziyang and Umbrella Shishuai discussed a way to rescue Nice. Because geoengineering is Umbrella Shishuai's strength, Chen Ziyang can't play any role at all, so he can only help Umbrella Shishuai supplement his rescue plan.
Umbrella Shi Shuai first denied the practice of directly sending people down to pull Nice up. Because the crack in this place is not very wide, it is possible that some parts of it will be narrower, and if you let one person go down like this, it is very likely that the rescuer will be stuck in the middle. At the same time, even if the person is not stuck, because the space inside is very small, it is very likely that the person will not be able to use his hands and feet when he enters and will not be able to rescue.
All that's left is to dig through the crack and go to the rescue. Since there is such a wide crack here, it is enough to say that there are likely to be more internal cracks underneath the ground. Therefore, the place where several people are standing is also very dangerous, and there is a possibility of a landslide at any time. So Umbrella Shishuai proposed not to act rashly now, and wait until Yang Lei brought the horse over.
At that time, everyone will wrap a rope around their waist and tie the other end of the rope to the horse's body, so that when several people are digging and rescuing, they will not be put in at the same time because of the sudden collapse.
When Yang Lei brought the horses over, Umbrella Shishuai tied the horses together with each other, so that if something really happened, the strength of the four horses together could play a very role. So the three of them tied the remaining rope around their waists and shone their flashlights into the cracks, but there was nothing to be seen in them except dirt.
The crack tilts after extending some distance downward. It didn't look like the hole was straight, and Ness probably fell into a corner where their flashlight couldn't get it. Without further ado, several people began to dig into the cracks in the ground.
Fortunately, a few people brought these two sapper shovels, and fortunately, the soil in the vicinity was very soft, and there were no stones in it, so the excavation went relatively smoothly. But it is precisely because of the loose soil near the cracks that some broken soil will fall into the cracks below every shovel, which makes Umbrella Shishuai very worried.
According to his analysis, the reason why Ness couldn't speak, but instead replied with a whine, was probably because Ness was stuck there and couldn't breathe normally. That means there's not a lot of space underneath, and the oxygen content isn't very sufficient, so if too much debris falls, it's very likely that Nice will be buried alive in it.
So a few people slowed down, but each shovel was very careful. They first used a shovel to gently plunge into the soil, and then lifted it outwards forcefully, so that as little debris fell as possible. But in this way, the speed of rescue is much slower.
This crack was expanding little by little under the efforts of the three people in turn, and at this time, Chen Ziyang seemed to have encountered something hard when he shoveled down.
