Cong Rong nodded and opened the car door. A group of people in the car opened the door and got out of the car. The strong wind swept the yellow sand. Several people were blinded by surprise, and the dry sand poured into their throats, itching unbearably.

Junzhi, Qiji and the others split up to look for clues around, Qiao Yu covered his mouth and coughed a few times, then whispered to the man, "How is it, did you find the entrance to the underground palace?"

The man shook his head, "I searched all over this area, but I couldn't find the entrance you mentioned. Are you sure that Sissen's underground palace is here? The climate here is so bad, the soil erosion is severe, and the soil on the surface has long been dry and cracked. How could it be possible?" Supporting a huge underground palace, don't you fool us?"

Just as Qiao Yu was about to speak, Cong Rong grabbed his arm and signaled him to be quiet, "If you were Sissen, would you be so stupid as to build your own dungeon where anyone could find it? You complained at the very beginning of the operation, I wonder if you are looking for it seriously, the director asked you to come here to fully cooperate with Ye Xing's work, but do you have the attitude of doing things?"

These words were very harsh, without saving any face for the other party, the faces of these people became ugly, and one of them raised his head unconvinced and said: "Team Cong, although you have a higher official title than us, this is not the case. It means we should listen to you in everything. This kid Li Yexing has just been dismissed from public office. Who knows if what he said is true. If he has some evil ideas in his mind, the brothers don't even know how he died. "

Cong Rong sneered, he knew that the reason why these people were so arrogant was not to expect the director to support them, the director sent these people out just to make a show, and wait until Qiao Yu and Xi Sen were both hurt, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman, so it was natural in his heart I don't want to risk my life for someone I don't care about.

"So you plan to disobey the order?"

A dark-skinned team member stood up and looked at the other members behind him and said with disdain: "Team Cong, some people are as cowardly as a mouse. They are afraid that they will lose their lives when they encounter an enemy. I, Li Da, will not go back, and I have to complete the task no matter what I say today."

"That's right." The four or five people standing around Li Da nodded in agreement.

"What do you mean? You deliberately provoked trouble, right?" Several other people rushed up and grabbed Li Da's collar, with angry faces.

"That's the truth. With your three-legged cat skills, aren't you afraid?"

Before Li Da finished speaking, several other people rushed up to fight with them, still yelling things like "I don't want to beat you to death today".

At this time, the ten people had been divided into two factions, five of them did not cooperate at all, and did not want to help Qiao Yu as much as possible, while the other five obeyed orders very dutifully.

Qiao Yu and Cong Rong looked at each other, and understood that this gang of internal strife was unreliable at all. Looking at this posture, if they entered the underground palace for a while, they didn't know what would happen.Qiao Yu stretched out his hand to persuade him to fight, but was pushed aside and almost fell to the ground.

At this moment, Qiji's voice came from a distance, "Hey, boss, Xingxing, what are you doing? We found something here!"

Qiao Yu froze for a moment, then patted Cong Rong on the shoulder, "I'll leave this to you, I'll go over there and have a look."

Cong Rong smiled wryly, and threw the most difficult task to me. This group of arrogant and arrogant guys didn’t come to help at all. They came to cause trouble. It seems that these people don’t know their surnames without using force. Yes, he rolled up his sleeves and walked into the group of ten scuffling people.

Qiao Yu hurriedly ran to Qiji's side, and found that he was bending over looking at something, he patted his shoulder, "Hey, what did you find? You called us in such a hurry."

Qiji raised his head and found Qiao Yu who was standing beside him, and then excitedly grabbed his sleeve, pointed to a part of the mud on the ground with a slightly brighter color, and said, "Touch this piece of soil, it seems to be different from the surrounding soil. .”

Qiao Yu was taken aback, bent down and dug out a palm-sized clod of soil with his hands, and crushed it with his hands, and was surprised to find that the soil in his hands was actually wet.

"There's not even a single plant here, why is the soil so wet?"

Qi Ji nodded, "I'm also surprised, I've seen the soil quality in this area, only this palm-sized area is wet, and the other areas are dry and blown away by the wind, do you think it is Someone accidentally spilled some water here before we came, and that's why?"

Qiao Yu pursed her lips and said nothing, squatting down and scraping away the surrounding soil clods vigorously, exposing the soil layer under the yellow sand. As a result, the soil became wetter as she dug down, and even left water marks on her hands.

He looked up at the sky, the sun was scorching, the sky was full of yellow sand, the surroundings were desolate and open, and as far as the eye could see, there was not even a shadow of any plants. In such a harsh environment, any water that was sprinkled on the ground would evaporate quickly, let alone It is said that there will be moisture under the soil layer.

"If the surface is sprinkled with water, the soil below the ground will not be so wet. There should be other reasons."

Qiao Yu stood up and patted Qiji on the shoulder, who would have thought that this guy would suddenly jump up with a scream, "Ah!"

"Thought the clue?" Qiao Yu grabbed his collar in surprise.

"What, you just rubbed your hands against my body after digging the soil, it's so beautiful~" Qi Ji covered his face shyly, and put his legs together in a quail costume.

Qiao Yu suddenly choked on his own saliva, his face turned completely black, please, what time is this and still care about this, can a little professionalism be enough?

"Go to hell, go find Junzhi if you want to be cute." Qiao Yu rolled her eyes, and squatted down to study this strange soil again.

"Hey, that guy Junzhi never cheers. I did it to ease the tense atmosphere. Really, you don't appreciate it." Qi Ji curled his lips unwillingly, squatting down and leaning against Qiao Yu, " Xing Xing, don’t study these soils, in fact, according to my opinion, there is probably a water source leading to the underground palace here, so the soil on the surface is wet, so don’t think too complicated.”

Qiao Yu's eyes lit up. Since he had judged that the water was overflowing from the ground, it must have a source. If he traced back to the source, would he find the underground palace if he dug down along this clue?

At this time, Jun Zhi, who was standing not far away, waved to them: "Yexing, come here, the soil here is also different from the surrounding ones."

Qiao Yu and Qi Ji looked at each other, raised their legs and ran towards Jun Zhi.At this time, Cong Rong didn't know what method he used to subdue the ten infighting team members, and honestly scattered around looking for the entrance of the underground palace. He laughed lowly and ran in the direction of Junzhi. past.

Qiao Yu was surprised when he saw those disobedient team members working peacefully, and patted Cong Rong beside him and asked in a low voice, "Be honest, what trick did you use to make these people So listen to you?"

Cong Rong pursed his lips and lowered his head with a smile, "What kind of tricks can I play? Why don't I use power under the stick? If I don't clean up these guys myself, they won't even know what my last name is."

Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Cong Rong's lower body and said with a smile, "Yo, it's still a stick. Do you have this thing?"

Hearing what he said, Cong Rong felt bad, and while Junzhi and Qiji were talking, he raised his hand and gently squeezed Qiao Yu's sensitive waist, and leaned into his ear and said erotically : "Don't you know if I have a stick, wife?"

Qiao Yu's ears were turned pink by the air exhaled by Cong Rong. He originally wanted to tease Cong Rong, but unexpectedly, he was teased instead. How aggrieved!

He raised his elbow and slammed Cong Rong's chest hard, cursing in a low voice: "Bah, why are you so thick-skinned?"

Cong Rong sneaked a kiss on Qiao Yu's face while others were not paying attention, "Yes, yes, what my wife taught me is, how can such issues that affect the construction of spiritual civilization be discussed in broad daylight, next time we go home at night Talk to each other in bed."

"You!" Qiao Yu was deflated, her face flushed.

"Yexing, look at this piece of mud. It's just as wet as the one Qi Ji found, and it's only the size of a palm. If you don't search carefully, you won't be able to find it."

Junzhi's words suddenly interrupted the charming atmosphere between Cong Rong and Qiao Yu. Qiao Yu raised his head and gave Cong Rong a look, coughed a few times to hide the embarrassment on his face, and leaned over to look, "Don't talk about it." It’s really the same as the land just now, it’s really amazing that watermarks can be left when you touch it with your hands.”

Junzhi nodded, thoughtfully, "Do you think this has something to do with the entrance of the underground palace?"

Cong Rong twirled the clods of soil with his hands, "Could it be a coincidence? Even if this piece of soil is different from the surrounding ones, it cannot be concluded that it has something to do with Sisen's underground palace. After all, we have no clues. It's too unreliable to draw a conclusion based on this, what do you think?" He turned his head and asked Qiao Yu and Qi Ji beside him.

Qiao Yu pursed her lips, looked in the direction of the piece of soil that Qiji discovered just now, and said softly: "I think there may be some connection. Qiji said just now that the reason why this piece of soil is so wet is probably because of the underground soil. There is a water source, and Sissen must drink water when he is retreating in the underground palace, so it is not guaranteed that these people will be able to touch the entrance of the underground palace along this clue."

Cong Rong frowned and meditated for a moment and said in a low voice: "If what you said is true, then have you thought about the cost and time? If you really follow these two wet lands to find water sources, you must This large area of ​​soil has been dug out, so we have to use large machines, and there is definitely nothing to be dug out today, so when will we drag and search slowly to find the entrance."

Having said that, the four of them were silent, and the strong wind whizzed past the sand, like a knife slashing their faces, and the frozen people shivered.

Qiao Yu stroked his chin and thought for a while, then patted Cong Rong and said, "You call Ouyang and Shu Qing to come here, let ten people continue to search, let's get together and think about countermeasures."

Cong Rong nodded, took out his mobile phone and dialed Ouyang's number.

"Boss, what's the matter? I was just about to call you, but I didn't expect you to contact me first."

"Is Shu Qing near you? If so, you and he should come to the car first, we found some clues here."

Ouyang was stunned on the other end of the phone, and then said loudly: "We also found some clues. I just wanted to call you just to talk about this. What did you find over there?"

Cong Rong raised his eyebrows, "Oh? We found two soils in the north that are different from the surrounding ones. They are as wet as if soaked in water. Water can flow out when you pinch them with your hands. We suspect that they may be similar to those in the underground palace. The source of water has something to do with it."

After hearing this, Ouyang yelled: "Oh, that's right! Shu Qing and I also found the same two pieces of soil here, which were also wet, and the color was darker than other places. The more you get into the water."

Cong Rong was taken aback, he closed his phone with a click, and his expression was a little excited: "Ouyang and Shu Qing also found the same soil clods, if one or two are accidental, then three or four are definitely not that simple Alright, let's go and have a look."

Qiao Yu looked at each other with Qi Ji and Jun Zhi, and ran towards Ouyang and Shu Qing without saying a word.

On the road, just facing the sun, the glaring sunlight shone on the face, making people's eyes hurt. Qiao Yu subconsciously turned his head, looked behind him, and was surprised to find that the piece of soil that Qi Ji found happened to be in this desert The place Junzhi found was exactly 45 degrees north, that is, the location due northwest.

I don't know if he thought too much, but he always felt that the placement of these mysterious soils was very mysterious, as if they had been calculated deliberately, and there was almost no deviation.

What is the purpose of these regular soils?Is it really related to the huge underground palace?
