68. Serial Mine Cave
It wasn't until Lake climbed up from below that Su Yu found the little thing hidden in his arms.
Maybe it was because he recognized Su Yu, the sable that had just been alive and kicking Leke to climb the ladder was now like a perfect specimen, motionless, and his technique of playing dead had obviously made more remarkable progress than before.
"Hey, it affected me just now, and I almost fell down, and now I know that I am pretending to be dead?" Lake pulled the sable out of his arms with a somewhat helpless look on his face.
"Where did you see it?" Originally, Su Yu didn't care about this sable, after all, it was a small thing that he put out with his own hands.
But now that she had seen it, and had seen it here, she asked anyway, because she suspected that Lake might have come here because of the sable.
As it turned out, she guessed right.
When he heard Lake say that he saw the sable running out and thought it was sneaking out of the territory, so he thought about catching it, Su Yu raised his eyebrows.
"It didn't sneak away, I let it out."
"Huh?" Ryker, who was still immersed in the thought of 'this sable is a fool who doesn't know how to enjoy happiness', was stunned.
Su Yu looked at the white mink, and saw that after hearing his words, his teary eyes turned around, and his pitiful appearance seemed to be that Su Yu was a scumbag who deceived her body.
'Mile ......'
It's a pity that Su Yu was unmoved, and the white sable also saw that Su Yu's attitude did not soften, so it suddenly broke free from Lake's arms, and then jumped to the edge of the hole.
Perhaps because he jumped too hard, he almost missed the brakes, and the whole mink almost fell into the hole in the ground.
It's a shame that it didn't fall this time, otherwise the last time it was because of Ryker's back, otherwise such a small mink suddenly fell, and I don't know if something would happen.
"Giggles!" After standing firm at the edge of the hole, the sable danced excitedly towards the two of them, jumping up and down, and uttering words that they could not understand.
Su Yu frowned, she seemed to sense that this white sable was trying to say something to herself...... Suddenly, Su Yu's gaze turned to the four walls of this mine.
I saw that there were only countless stones on the inner wall of this place called the 'Mine Cave', and there was not a trace of the ore at all.
Originally, Lake was still curious about what Su Yu was looking at, so he also followed Su Yu's example and looked left and right......
"There doesn't seem to be any ore here?" As soon as he said this, Lake felt as if he had said a nonsense.
But that's not the point, the point should be - why there is no ore in a mine.
Is this a stone cave?
No way!
Knowing that this is a mine, if there is such a naturally occurring cave, it must be a mine, not a stone cave with only stones.
'Ahh Seeing that Su Yu and Lake didn't look at him, Bai Mink was obviously a little anxious.
It screamed again, and when it saw that the eyes of the two people were looking in its direction, the white sable went directly down the wooden ladder that Su Yu had erected before and then returned to the cave.
"Hey!" Lake was startled, and then hurriedly went to the side of the cave, looked down to check the condition of the sable, and only then did Lake breathe a sigh of relief when he saw it standing safely at the bottom.
Before he could say anything, he saw Su Yu, who was originally standing behind him, coming over, and then going down the ladder like a white mink.
"Your Lord!" Lake was really confused, he didn't know what was going on...... If this sable goes down, forget it, why does the lord go down too?
Is there something precious down there that can't be done?
…… Lake really guessed right! There's something down there!
Su Yu also knew that this kind of cave located in the mine must be a mine, so when she found that there were no obvious traces of ore on the four walls of the cave on the surface, she began to doubt...... It is suspected that this is likely to be a chain of mines.
Cave Chains, literally, are formed by at least two interconnected caves, half of which are devoid of ore or have very little ore exposed.
In a chain mine, the real location of the ore is in the inner cavern.
Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that this cave is a passage connecting the two mines!
……
After watching Su Yu go down, Lake didn't know for a while whether he should stay on it now, in case of an accident, or if he wanted to go down too......
Just as Lake was about to go down together, he heard Su Yu's voice from below-
"Ryker, take a stick with a fire and hold it up at the entrance of the cave to help light it." Although Su Yu still has the materials to build a bonfire, the space below is too small.
The already small space was put on a wooden ladder, and she stood alone, so there was no space for a bonfire at all, and when a bonfire could not be placed, Su Yu could only use this troublesome way to illuminate.
"Good!" Lake turned around and took a piece of burnt wood back to the hole.
In order to let the fire shine below, Lake also reached out and lowered the wooden stick.
"Alright, that's it." With enough light, Su Yu could see clearly what was going on underneath the cave.
In the absence of light, she could only see that the ground below the cave was full of stone walls, as if it were just an ordinary cave, and there was nothing special.
But now that there is a light source, Su Yu can clearly find that there is a stone wall, and the color and texture of the stone are completely different from the surrounding ones.
Su Yu took out the pickaxe that Lake had dropped before, and then knocked on the stone wall...... The sound is crisp and long.
After confirming the location, Su Yu directly picked up the pickaxe and aimed at this stone wall to excavate.
Lake, who was holding a burning wooden stick, couldn't look directly down, and couldn't see what was going on below, but after hearing this familiar voice, Laker also knew what Su Yu was doing at this time.
In less than three minutes, the fire was already burning.
Just as Lake was about to ask if he needed any lighting, he heard the sound of stone collapsing below.
"It's really a serial mine cave...... Su Yu looked at the 'other caves' behind the stone wall, muttering to herself, and at the same time, her eyes also looked at her sable, which had been staring at her with a sekluster since she came down.
Laike's voice came from above, and Su Yu withdrew his gaze from the white mink, and then said upwards: "You go back first, and remember to bring back the stones you dug when you go back......
