"Will it be too far?" Song Wei asked hesitantly.

The straight line distance here is more than two hundred meters from the entrance of the tomb she entered. Although experts speculate that the tomb is very large, Song Wei did not dare to confirm whether their feet are still in the range of the tomb.

After all, everything is just an expert's speculation. Their investigation was forced to be suspended just now. No one knows how large the scope of the tomb is and how its distribution is.

Compared to Song Wei's uncertainty, Xia Rufei is somewhat sure.

Because at this location, the heat of sensing jade leaves is still very high, which means that the boundary stone is nearby, so there is no doubt that this place must be the scope of the tomb.

Xia Rufei smiled and said, "My intuition tells me that there should be gains here!"

Song Wei had a speechless expression: "It's intuition again..."

"My intuition is sometimes quite accurate!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

This location is a depression and is far away from the patrol security guards, so the two of them are much more relaxed than before.

"Then does your intuition tell you how we should start?" Song Wei asked with a smile.

Xia Rufei stood up with a mysterious look on his face, walked a few steps around here, then stomped his feet, and said, "Just dig in from here!"

Song Wei was stunned: "It's that simple?"

Xia Ruofei shrugged and said, "Otherwise! Since it's all about taking chances, it's better to believe my intuition once!"

Song Wei was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Okay!"

She is a major in archaeology, and she is also clueless when facing such a situation where there are almost no clues. Since Xia Ruofei believes in his intuition so firmly, it is better to believe him once, otherwise she wouldn't have been wandering around the wilderness in the middle of the night!

The two took off their backpacks and put them aside. Song Wei took out the Luoyang shovel from her bag and skillfully assembled them together.

Xia Ruofei reached out and said with a smile: "Leave this kind of physical work to me!"

Song Wei was not polite and handed the Luoyang shovel to Xia Rufei directly.

In fact, this Luoyang shovel has two shovel heads. The small shovel head that is installed now is mainly used for cave exploration. Take the soil below and judge whether there is a tomb below based on the soil quality.

Xia Ruofei digged without saying a word. Song Wei looked at it and smiled and said, "The movements are quite professional. Could it be that you have robbed the tomb before?"

"Yes! And he even stole the royal tomb!" Xia Ruofei said without raising his head.

"Brave!" Song Wei said with a chuckle.

After a while, Xia Rufei took some soil and came up. Song Wei took the flashlight and turned it on it and looked at it seriously. He said with surprise: "There is really a tomb below!"

After saying that, Song Wei pointed to a piece of soil that Xia Rufei took up and said, "Look, this is the obvious three-dimensional soil feature, and from the color, it is mixed with glutinous rice soup. The specifications of this tomb are very high!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Do you believe my intuition now?"

Song Wei giggled and said, "The blind cat will encounter a dead mouse! And if we dig it rashly from here, it will be dangerous if the tomb collapses, and it will really be a death!"

Tomb robbing is actually a high-risk industry with heavy physical strength, and it is common to have tombs accidentally die.

During the archaeological excavations that Song Wei participated in, several times saw lying dead bones in the tomb. These were basically the remains of tomb robbers. They either died in it because of lack of oxygen or other unknown dangers, or even were killed by their accomplices because of uneven distribution of spoils.

Xia Ruofei said: "Let's be careful. This tomb is so large that if nothing unexpected happens, it should be a complete underground palace and it will not collapse so easily."

Song Wei nodded, and she also agreed with Xia Rufei's point of view, so she said, "Then... let's try to dig it down?"

"Of course!" Xia Ruofei said.

All have reached this point, and the sense that the jade leaves emitted a scorching breath at all times. No matter whether there is any danger below, Xia Rufei must continue.

Song Wei didn't say anything, and took out another larger shovel head and replaced it, and then silently handed it to Xia Rufei.

This shovel head is specially used for digging holes and is much more useful than ordinary shovels.

Of course, with the development of technology, many tomb robbers now use technological equipment, such as single-person load-carrying drilling machines, etc., which makes them even more efficient.

Xia Rufei took the Luoyang shovel and began to dig the soil at the location where he had just drilled the hole.

He has a lot of strength and good physical strength. In addition, he has trained to excavate individual bunkers when he was in the army before, so there is no problem with his skills, so his speed is naturally very fast.

In a short while, a circular hole with a diameter of about 70 cm appeared.

Xia Ruofei kept digging deeper, while Song Wei gave him a flashlight, and the two of them had a clear division of labor.

After digging down for about two meters, Xia Rufei was already inside the cave, and Song Wei was almost lying at the entrance of the cave and reached out to illuminate Xia Rufei.

The hole is not completely vertical, but digs straight down first, and starts digging diagonally downwards to about half a meter deep, so in fact, Song Wei's flashlight does not play much role.

But she felt that it was not good to be idle and always wanted to do something.

Just then, Song Wei heard a "ding" sound coming from the bottom, which was obviously different from the sound of digging the soil just now. She hurriedly asked, "Ruofei, what's wrong?"

Xia Ruofei said below: "Song Wei, hand me the flashlight!"

Because Xia Rufei had already penetrated deeper, the sound was a little dull, but Song Wei was still quite clear. She quickly took out a rope from her bag and tied the flashlight, and then went down.

After a while, Xia Rufei retreated along the entrance of the cave. He supported his hands and sat at the entrance of the cave, saying to Song Wei: "It must have been dug up the tomb brick! I want to change the tools."

After saying that, Xia Rufei searched in the mountaineering bag next to him, took out a bag of tools and put them in his pocket. There were small spudgers, shovels, etc., all of which were prepared for the limited space below.

He thought about it, and took out a roll of plastic cloth from his bag, stuffed it into his pocket, and then said, "I'm going down!"

Song Wei felt nervous for no reason, and she grabbed Xia Rufei's arm.

Xia Ruofei was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"

Song Wei's pretty face turned hot and she said, "It's nothing...you...be careful!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Don't worry! I'm not a reckless person. Once something is wrong, I will withdraw immediately! By the way..."

Speaking of this, Xia Rufei remembered something again. He found a black bag from his mountaineering bag and handed it to Song Wei, and said, "I will pull the rope later, and you will straighten the tube inside!"

For safety reasons, Xia Rufei tied a rope around his waist when he was working underneath. If something unexpected happened, Song Wei could still pull him up.

Of course, it’s all to say whether the delicate Miss Song can move Xia Rufei.

Song Wei opened it and showed a look of surprise: "Snake tube endoscope! You are quite well prepared!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Isn't this a precaution? Safety first!"

Seeing this, Song Wei felt relieved a lot and nodded and said, "Then you go down! I'll wait for your signal!"

Industrial-grade snake tube endoscopes allow people to see the situation inside without having to go down to the tomb in person, which is equivalent to the second pair of eyes, and can largely avoid some unknown risks.

Xia Ruofei grinned at Song Wei and got into the hole again.

He soon arrived at the place he had just dug. The soil here had been cleaned up by him, and in front of him were slightly curved tomb bricks.

The bricks are tightly intertwined, and the construction process is quite clever.

Xia Rufei directly took out the military dagger from the spiritual map space, inserted it hard into the tiny gap, and then pried it carefully.

Gradually, the tomb bricks began to loosen.

As the gap increased, Xia Rufei replaced the small spudger and pried a whole piece of tomb tiles.

After taking out one piece, the rest became easier, and soon all the tomb bricks in front of him were pried off.

However, what surprised Xia Rufei was that the tomb bricks was not a hollow tomb chamber under the tomb bricks, but still had solid three-combination soil.

This tomb chamber should be compacted with three-piece earth, and there is a layer of tomb bricks in the middle, similar to sandwich biscuits.

Xia Rufei didn't know what this design is about, but he didn't want to dig so much. Since it was still a three-metal soil, then continue digging down.

After digging for more than 40 centimeters, Xia Rufei finally felt a lighter in his hand. He immediately showed a hint of joy. He knew that he must have dug through it.

However, thinking that the tomb might be filled with cold unknown toxins, Xia Rufei's expression also condensed slightly. He immediately took out the plastic cloth that had been prepared from his body, blocked the small hole he had just dug out, and then pulled the rope around his waist.

Song Wei on the top had been waiting for a long time. When she felt the rope shaking, she quickly moved the endoscope of the snake tube.

Xia Rufei put the endoscope along the small hole into the tomb chamber, and then crawled out along the hole.

"How is it?" Song Wei asked.

"It's already dug through!" Xia Ruofei said, "Let's take a look at the situation below first, and then decide whether to go in!"

"Yes!" Song Wei nodded heavily.

Xia Rufei took out the laptop from his bag and the control end of the endoscope and connected it skillfully.

The snake tube endoscope is powered by a battery, and soon the picture below appears on the laptop screen.

Song Wei naturally came over to watch it with great anticipation.

The images captured by the infrared camera are colorless, but you can still see the situation of the tomb below more clearly.

The place I dug through just now seemed to be a passage, about two meters high. There were two rows of sculptures standing on both sides of the long corridor, which looked a bit gloomy and weird.

Xia Rufei controlled the endoscope of the snake tube to shoot at both ends of the passage, and did not see any danger. Although it felt gloomy, it was very quiet.

So he called out another interface on the computer and integrated sensors at the top of the snake tube endoscope, which can detect the air condition in the tomb.

The data shows that everything is normal. Except for the lower oxygen content, there is no situation where the content of harmful gases exceeds the standard.

Song Wei and Xia Ruofei looked at each other and asked, "Do you want to go down?"

Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Down! But..."

"I'll go down too!" Song Wei said first before Xia Ruofei finished speaking.

Xia Rufei said helplessly: "Okay! I'll do some final things, and then let's go down together!"
