Chapter 211 [Unbreakable] (Part 2)
Luo Lie was the last one to come down. The water was almost dry. He came to the cave where he had just been drilled out of the coffin and found that the cave was almost closed, but because the flowing water brought the surrounding white sand and flowed into it. The cave continued to shrink and was now close.
Song Changjin said: "Did the coffin fall into this?"
Luo Lie realized his unusual concern for the coffin and smiled indifferently, "Now we must first consider how to escape."
Yan Tianxin said: "There is a hole over there!"
Luo Lie looked up and saw that there were two caves around them. One of them was the water cave where he and Yan Tianxin had swam into before. The entrance was tilted downward and they would completely enter the water after walking less than ten meters. The other was the cave entrance that had just been revealed. The entrance was square, and normal people could only crawl through it. However, judging from the size of the cave entrance, the huge one-eyed beast should not be able to pass here.
Zhang Changgong pointed to the square hole and said, "I think this hole is safer."
Luo Liedao: "I'll go explore the way."
Wu Jie said: "You are injured and there is no light inside, so I'll go."
Luo Lie and Yan Tianxin looked at each other. They did not persist this time. If they persisted blindly, they would definitely make their companions suspicious.
After Wu Jie left, Song Changjin actually returned to the place where the coffin had just entered. He took out a engineer shovel and began to dig out the sand and soil. Luo Lie and the other two knew that this guy must have a plan, and they didn't stop him. They watched the guy be busy there coldly.
Song Changjin worked hard for a long time but still couldn't find what he wanted.
Luo Lie had actually quietly explored with his watch. The coffin was no longer within the range that the watch could explore. With the tools they currently have, it was impossible to find the coffin. So Song Changjin is useless now. Even if he digs until the sky is dark, he cannot find the coffin.
Song Changjin finally gave up his efforts and threw the engineer aside in dejection.
Zhang Changgong gloated and said, "Have you dug up the treasure?"
Song Changjin said angrily: "There is one of the treasures."
Yan Tianxin and Luo Lie did not join their quarrel. Taking advantage of this time, Yan Tianxin treated Luo Lie's wounds to prevent infection.
They thought Wu Jie would go back, but they didn't expect that Wu Jie would leave for nearly an hour but still didn't see him return.
Song Changjin was the first to calm down and sighed, "You said nothing happened to him, right?"
The other three people chose to remain silent at the same time. Song Changjin said again: "He has no one to take care of him, and he can't see his eyes after talking."
Zhang Changgong said: "It is always better to see clearly than a blind person."
Song Changjin smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm not worried. After all, everyone came out together, so we should take care of each other." In fact, he was in the forefront of the slander, thinking that Wu Jie might have found a way out, so he left them aside.
Although Yan Tianxin believed in Wu Jie's character, Song Changjin's words were not unreasonable. After all, Wu Jie had been away for so long, and she whispered to Luo Lie: "It's better for me to go over and take a look."
Zhang Changgong said to the side: "I'll go."
Luo Lie thought about it and said, "Wait a little longer. If Mr. Wu doesn't come back in half an hour, let's go in and take a look." He knew Wu Jie's temperament very well. Wu Jie chose to go in alone to explore the way, and if they entered it without waiting for Wu Jie to come back, Wu Jie's understanding is distrust of him. With Wu Jie's arrogant temperament, such actions are untolerable.
However, time passed minute by minute, and when Luo Lie said the deadline, Wu Jie still did not return it. He began to realize that something was wrong with this matter. Yan Tianxin had the smallest skeleton and the best flexibility of his body. She opened the way ahead, Luo Lie followed closely, then Song Changjin, and the last one was Zhang Changgong.
At the beginning of more than ten meters, the square holes could only crawl forward. After more than ten meters, the front suddenly became wider. Luo Lie handed the lighter to Yan Tianxin. Using the lighter, Yan Tianxin found an arrow on the wall to guide the direction. The arrow should have been drawn on the rock layer with sharp weapons. According to the scratches, the time should be short-term. It is probably left by Wu Jie. From this, it is inferred that Wu Jie does not want to go away forever, otherwise why should he spend his energy to leave the mark?
Walking forward for more than twenty meters, the corridor became more and more spacious. With the height of Zhang Changgong, you can keep moving upright. The water in the passage receded for a while, so it was still wet inside. There were arrow marks at every distance, and they followed the marks and kept moving forward.
It was Song Changjin who broke the silence again. He caught up with Luo Lie and whispered: "Will he deliberately set up a trap and let us get into it?"
Luo Lie couldn't help laughing. This third uncle judged the gentleman's ambition by his villain's heart. Luo Lie believed that Wu Jie was a person, and he would not and had no reason to harm them. What's more, the path they took was always tilted upwards. According to the direction, there should be no mistakes.
Yan Tianxin stopped and an open stone door appeared in front of her. The stone door was structured up and down. The stone above was usually called the Broken Dragon Stone, which was about two meters thick. Looking inside and outside the door, you can find that they had just entered the water, while the other side of the door was extremely dry, with both sides clearly dry and wet, which proved that the door played a role in isolating the water flow outside and should be opened soon.
Song Changjin is an expert in this field. He urged everyone to pass through the gate quickly, and then said: "This gate is called the Broken Dragon Stone. Once it falls, it will not be opened unless the person who controls the secrets of the agency is in danger of being able to open it with manpower. Your Mr. Wu has deceived us, and he should have been here before."
Zhang Changgong had no way to refute everything in front of him. Song Changjin said it right. If he hadn't been a person who knew the structure of the internal mechanism, how could he have successfully opened the Broken Dragon Stone? However, Zhang Changgong still didn't believe that Wu Jie would be detrimental to them. If he really wanted to harm these people, he would not have left this door to them.
Going further forward, I saw a large piece of stone pillars appearing in front of me. The top of the stone pillars is level with the ground, five meters deep below, and sharp stalagmites are standing at the bottom. Song Changjin said: "As expected, he proposed that he had ulterior motives when he came here."
Yan Tianxin said: "What's the point? I specially cleared all obstacles so that we can get through without any obstacles?" As long as it is not a blind man, he could see that the mechanisms all over the place have been unlocked. If Wu Jie had not cleared the obstacles for them, they would not have been able to reach this place.
Zhang Changgong said, "Is this a path?" He wanted to step onto the stone pillar, but Song Changjin reached out to stop him. Zhang Changgong stared at him and said, "What are you doing?"
Song Changjin said: "Wait!" He took out the compass, and at this time his compass had returned to normal. Song Changjin observed the direction and judged the good and bad luck based on the distribution direction of the stone pillars.
Although Zhang Changgong hates Song Changjin, he has to admit that he is a master of this. He naturally has his own tricks in judging the good and bad luck of Feng Shui and cracking the traps of the mechanism.
Song Changjin looked at it for a while and finally said, "Master, I didn't expect that he was also a master in this way." He took the lead and walked up to the stone pillar: "Everyone be careful not to fall down, this stone pillar is fine."
The four of them walked carefully past the group of stone pillars. As soon as they walked past, they heard a squeaking sound from behind, but they saw the group of stone pillars moving on their own. After a while, all the gaps had been filled. The original group of stone pillars had turned into a flat surface on the outside, looking no different from other grounds.
Song Changjin said: "He only left four people with the opportunity to pass, that is to say, after the fourth person passes, the mechanism will automatically trigger..." Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud rumbling sound from behind, and soon a thunder sound was made, but the sound of the broken dragon stone closing. The broken dragon stone fell, and they could not turn around.
Zhang Changgong humbly asked for advice: "Why did this mechanism activate when it just passed the fourth person?"
Song Changjin smiled and said, "The mechanism is vast and endless. Even if I say it, you don't understand, so don't waste your energy." He took the opportunity to retort Zhang Changgong once, which was so angry that Zhang Changgong stared dryly, but had nothing to say.
The few people were basically relieved when they walked here. The possibility of Wu Jie coming here was very high. Even if he had never been here, he was very familiar with the local authorities and had not appeared until now. He should have left quietly. Perhaps he did not want to be exposed by everyone in person. Perhaps he had other important things to do.
On the way, we passed several stone gates. Because Wu Jie had opened the stone gate in advance, they all passed through smoothly. There was already a sandstone area around them. After walking a few steps, we heard the sound of Tiewa calling them.
Several people were overjoyed when they heard the sound. It seemed that they were not far from the exit, and they followed the sound along the winding cave.
Lu Weilin led everyone to use all possible tools to dig the huge rock that blocked the hole. Several people took turns to fight. Although they tried their best, the effect they received was minimal. Except for Zhao Luxin, who had broken an arm, everyone joined the rescue operation. Although everyone knew in their hearts that the possibility of breaking through the huge rock almost did not exist, no one proposed to give up.
In addition to trying to open the entrance, they were also searching for other paths everywhere, but after a long time of hard work, they did not find anything. Just as the hope in everyone's hearts was gradually shattered, they suddenly heard a loud voice from behind: "We are back!"
The sound came from Zhang Changgong. Tiewa was most familiar with the master's voice and said in surprise: "Master!" He put down the tool in his hand and turned around and ran towards the direction where the sound was heard.
