209, down the hole
After Lao Wei's analysis, we all feel that it makes sense, after all, there are obvious traces of people going down to this robbery cave, and the tent erected next to it must also be for this group of tomb robbers.
Considering the geographical location, we judge that this thief cave is likely to be the fairy cave that leads directly to the Crystal Palace, because this is just in the middle of the Nanshan ridge, and the location is unbiased.
"Otherwise, let's go down here and have a look? I've been looking for it all day, and I don't want to waste any more time! Tiger Wazi said a little impatiently.
Lao Wei was more steady, and persuaded him: "Don't panic first, even if you are not completely sure, at least you have to be six or seven percent sure before going down." ”
He looked back at our "guide" Xiao Juan, and repeatedly confirmed: "Xiao Juan, are there any other robbery holes around here?" Probably on the ridge? ”
Xiao Juan pointed to the distance and said, "There is still a robbery hole over there, but it is not in the middle of the ridge, it is a little crooked." ”
Lao Wei asked, "How far is the thief cave over there from here?" ”
Xiaojuan thought for a while and said, "Three or four hundred meters." ”
"That's not right, it's a bit out of place." Lao Wei thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind, and said: "Count the ball, seeing that it's getting dark, let's not look for it, let's go down and have a look, at least give a nest of rats that get in!" ”
Speaking of this, he greeted the police officer who drove us over just now, and said, "Excuse me, send these two children back to the county seat, it's going to be dark soon, and their parents should be anxious when they go home late." ”
The driver's uncle nodded and said to Xiaojuan and her little boyfriend, "Let's go, I'll send you home." ”
Before leaving, Xiao Liang and I walked over to thank them.
I said, "Thank you, Xiaojuan, and I'll treat you to a good meal when we come back." ”
Xiaojuan smiled and nodded, and instructed us: "You must be careful, don't be harmed by tomb robbers." ”
I hurriedly promised: "Don't worry, we have dealt with rats several times, and we already have enough experience in fighting." ”
After speaking, I watched Xiaojuan and her little boyfriend go down the mountain, just in time for the sun to set, and the light of the setting sun was shining brightly, shining on them, stretching the figures of these two students very long.
Lao Wei stood on the side, looked at the backs of these two students, and said with a smile: "These two children are very good, they are both enthusiastic." ”
After Xiaojuan and the others left, we returned to the side of the robbery cave, and Lao Wei sent someone to take out two rope ladders and hang them on the tree next to them, and then began to go down to the tomb in order.
Although there are traces of people going down to this thief cave, the first thing to do is to detect the air composition under the thief cave for the sake of safety.
If the oxygen concentration in the thief cave is too low, the person who goes down will not even have a chance to struggle, and will be finished on the spot.
To do this kind of thing, Lao Wei was the first to go down, which he and Jiang Yongguang were the same, since they were leading the team, they must take the lead, and they couldn't let other brothers take this risk.
After about five minutes, I heard the sound of the machine "beep" from under the thief cave, and then Lao Wei shouted to the top: "The air is fine, come down." ”
"Okay!"
I answered, and followed Xiao Lingwei and Hu Wazi down in order.
Walking down the rope ladder to the bottom, I found that it was a typical "L" shaped thief hole.
The characteristic of the "L" shaped thief cave is that its whole shape presents an "L" shape, first straight up and down, a hole is dug down, and then after reaching a certain depth, it suddenly turns a right-angle bend and turns into the ancient tomb.
The height of this robbery hole is about seven or eight meters, it belongs to a relatively large scale of the robbery hole, when we came to the corner, I found that the thief hole below is really as Lao Wei said, there is a fork in the road.
One of the thieves is obviously an old thief hole.
As the saying goes, "the ancient circle is near the square", this old thief cave is very old, and the surrounding cave walls have been weathered very round, and there are even no traces of artificial digging, and it is also full of plants such as grass and vines.
But the other robbery hole is obviously much newer, the traces of shovels and pickaxes are still there, and there is not even a little grass growing on the cave wall, it is bare, and it is very new.
Lao Wei only glanced at it, and said happily: "This new thief hole has just been dug up for no more than two weeks!" Let's find the right one, this Eight Achievements of Thief Cave is the Immortal Cave that leads directly to the Crystal Palace! ”
Hearing this news, I was also very excited, because finding the Immortal Cave means that I can find the Crystal Palace, and finding the Crystal Palace means that I can rescue Sister Xiaomei!
The tiger baby was as excited as I was, he rolled up his sleeves and walked forward, saying, "Hurry up, go down the fairy cave and rescue An An!" ”
Lao Wei hurriedly stopped and said, "Tiger baby, slow down, beware of an ambush, don't forget that a group of rats just came down from above." ”
Xiao Liang also reminded: "Lao Wei is right, the rats on the other side of the tent left suddenly, they must have encountered some emergency, I don't know what danger is in this thief cave." ”
The tiger baby was not afraid at all, and waved his hand and said: "No danger can stop me from saving An An, brother-in-law, let's go and rescue An An!" ”
I was also worried about the ambush in the tiger baby, so I hurriedly walked in front of him, and then deliberately slowed down and stuck his position, so that he wouldn't be so angry and go forward.
Lao Wei and Xiao Liang also hurriedly walked forward, holding flashlights along the way to observe the situation inside the robbery cave, for fear that the rats in it would arrange some traps for us like Uncle Liu Huang did before.
After walking a few steps at first, there were no surprises in the cave, and everything was normal.
But after walking more than ten steps along this brand new thief hole, I suddenly smelled a foul smell.
The smell was particularly stinky, which made me retch, and the tiger baby walking next to me also frowned and scolded: "! What does it taste like? It smells so bad, too! ”
Soon Lao Wei and Xiao Liang also smelled this smell, Lao Wei wrinkled his nose and sniffed, and immediately said: "It's not good, this is the smell of blood, it is estimated that there will be a death ahead!" Be careful, everyone! ”
This smell of blood mixed with the smell of earth, and the smell of feces and urine, it is estimated that it is the most unpleasant smell I have ever smelled in my life, how bad it is.
I took the flashlight, reluctantly moved forward, and after two more steps, I saw a person lying deep in the thief hole in front of me.
"There's a guy here!" I said in a low voice.
As soon as he heard this, Xiao Lingwei in the back took out the big baby on his waist with a "sigh".
