Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

The corridor was very dark, and even though there was light from torches and flashlights, it still felt like one foot was deep and the other was shallow.

Qi Tiezui turned around and held Chu Ning's hand to prevent the child from falling.

Chu Ning allowed Qi Tiezui to pull him, and also paid attention to the surrounding situation.

The group of people walked for about 20 minutes, and a faint green light came from the cave in front.

Stepping inside, it suddenly became clear that this place seemed to be a naturally formed cave, with piles of sharp rocks standing on the ground.

Adjutant Zhang led the soldiers to inquire around, "Lord Buddha, there is no way.

It seems like this is just an ordinary cave. "

Er Laohong looked up and said, "This is not a dead end. There must be an entrance."

Chu Ning came closer and asked, "What should I say?" He felt the weak wind.

Er Laohong said softly, "If it were just an ordinary mine, the flames would not be swaying."

Zhang Qishan commanded in a deep voice, "Don't give up, search every corner carefully for me."

"Yes!" The soldiers dispersed again.

Chu Ning borrowed a torch, felt the direction of the wind, and finally brought the torch close to a hole in the ground. The torch swayed more obviously.

"Adjutant Zhang, here!"

Chu Ning waved to Adjutant Zhang who was closest to him, and Adjutant Zhang came over quickly.

When Adjutant Zhang saw the small hole, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly pulled Chu Ning back.

At the same time, he ordered the other soldiers who were approaching, "Approach carefully, the bottom is empty."

Zhang Qishan approached and patted Adjutant Zhang, then stepped forward alone.

"Lord Buddha..." Chu Ning pulled Zhang Qishan, and Zhang Qishan shook his head and waved his hands to stop him.

"Don't get close, there should be something separating it underneath."

As Zhang Qishan spoke, Adjutant Zhang understood. He took out a work shovel from the backpack behind him and handed it to Zhang Qishan.

Zhang Qishan dug the hole with the shovel head, finally decided on a location, and ordered the soldiers to dig out the soil from the outside inward.

“This area has been tampered with, and if it bears too much weight, it will collapse.

Those that are closer will be buried. It seems that we have found the right place. "

After Zhang Qishan explained, Qi Tiezui pulled Chu Ning and Adjutant Zhang over with fear, "Are you okay?"

Adjutant Zhang patted Qi Tiezui and said, "If anything happens, I won't stand here."

"Hey you!"

Qi Tie turned away angrily, and Chu Ning moved closer to Er Lao Hong and away from the battlefield where the two were bickering.

Er Laohong looked down at the child who was getting closer to her, and shook her head helplessly.

After waiting for a while, the hole was dug out, revealing a diameter large enough for a person to pass through.

Zhang Qishan took the torch and several people looked closer. Qi Tiezui was shaken by the torch and waved his hand to block the light.

"Sure enough, the more critical the place, the more hidden it is."

Zhang Qishan frowned and looked at the dark hole inside, and said, "This cave entrance is very narrow, go in one by one."

Prepare. "

Adjutant Zhang said to the two soldiers, "You two go down first. If it's safe, blow the whistle three times."

"Yes."

The two soldiers were about to take off the back panel when Erlanhong spoke.

“Wait a minute.

If you can, try to stay close to the wall and not in the middle. "

Chu Ning looked at Erxin Hong, who was giving an early warning to the two soldiers.

These are two living lives. I hope what I said can save these two lives in this critical moment.

In fact, if the soldiers participating in this operation were really in danger, Zhang Qishan would also comfort their families so that they would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

But Erxiahong still wanted to say it.

Wrapping the rope around the stone pillar, he watched the two soldiers descend slowly until they disappeared into the darkness.

Chu Ning asked Er Laohong doubtfully, "Why do you have to walk against the wall? Why don't you take the middle path?"

Chu Ning asked, attracting Zhang Qishan and Qi Tiezui's eyes. They actually wanted to know.

Er Laohong looked at these pairs of eyes that were seeking knowledge, and felt a little dumbfounded. Then she spoke softly and explained to them.

“When people of our clan go to the tomb, the purpose is: not to go through the passages and areas where ordinary people walk.

All traps must be set up in this kind of place. "

Qi Tiezui nodded repeatedly, "Oh, that makes sense."

The two soldiers grabbed the rope and descended slowly. When the soldier who went down first was more than halfway down, he saw carved Buddha statues on the surrounding walls.

The second soldier looked back and forth nervously, falling into the open area, feeling only the dark wind behind him.

The soldier seemed to have noticed something. He suddenly turned his head and saw the stone statues carved on the wall. The soldier's eyes widened in horror.

"Ahhhh!"

The soldier received a visual shock and felt that his hands had no strength, and then he lay on his back and fell freely.

The group of people waiting at the entrance of the cave heard the soldiers' shouts and looked down solemnly.

The soldier fell to the ground, and a brick at the bottom was smashed downwards.

Several short arrows shot out from a spot on the wall and pierced the soldier's stomach.

Zhang Qishan hurriedly grabbed the rope and said, "Leave two people on top, and the others will come down with me."

After saying that, he jumped into the hole.

The soldier who went down first saw several sharp arrows piercing his companion's body. He turned around in horror and opened his mouth wide.

A short arrow pierced the soldier's throat.

Seeing Zhang Qishan going down, Chu Ning hurriedly took out a rope and tied another stone pillar to go down, and said in a hurry.

“I know you want to stop me, but don’t stop me yet.

Lord Buddha told the others to follow. "

Chu Ning finished speaking quickly, and while several people were stunned, he ducked out of the way, grabbed the rope and jumped into the hole. This time Chu Ning finally got his wish.

Qi Tiezui only had time to say, "Xiao Ning, be careful, slow down!"

Seeing that Chu Ning's figure had disappeared, Er Laohong also grabbed the rope and slowly slid down.

Zhang Qishan landed first, and Chu Ning felt that his palms were almost bleeding from the rope. He slipped to the bottom of the rope and his feet could no longer feel the rope.

Chu Ning could only grasp the rope with both hands, but it was still a long way from the ground.

"Jump! I'll catch you!"

Just when Chu Ning wanted to swing the rope, the force of the mountain wall caused it to fall down.

Zhang Qishan's voice came from below, and Chu Ning released his hands with great trust.

When Zhang Qishan came down, he felt some noise above his head. As soon as he landed, he looked up and saw the child's body holding the rope with both hands.

Frowning tightly, Zhang Qishan visually measured the distance and spoke calmly.

Chu Ning's figure disappeared, Zhang Qishan used the rope in his hand to roll it up, and the rope wrapped around Chu Ning's waist.

Chu Ning hurriedly reached out and grabbed the rope. After swinging in the air, Zhang Qishan caught him firmly.

"Thank you Lord Buddha!"

Chu Ning smiled at Zhang Qishan. Seeing that Chu Ning was not injured, Zhang Qishan grabbed the rope and shook it.

Adjutant Zhang saw that the rope used by Zhang Qishan to go down moved, so he grabbed Qi Tiezui who was about to go down next to him.

"Master Ba, don't use Xiao Ning's rope. There's something wrong with that rope."

Then Adjutant Zhang told the people following him, "Use the rope on the left side!"

Er Laohong saw the thrilling scene below on the rope and breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Qishan successfully caught Chu Ning.

At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart that the child was too light. If not, Zhang Qishan probably would not have taken the risk of letting Chu Ning jump directly.
