Chapter 92 Going underground
So Jerry's head is a little useful. Chen Qinghan thought about it and said that there might be a passage below, but we didn't find it.
Yes, no one stipulates that the ancient tomb can only have two floors. Besides, the tomb of the Heavenly Girl has no fixed specifications, and they are all built as they please.
The space we are in is somewhat similar to the elevator repair room. I don’t know, did the designer plan to regularly maintain and repair the agency passage when we built it?
In short, the designers left us a ‘repaircraft channel’, Pete’s team, Chen Qinghan and Jerry, and a five-sister group. They all rely on this channel to escape from the numerous organs.
The five sisters group took us to discover the second hidden passage, under a three-person thick shaft, there was a hole that could allow one person to drill through.
The footprints of the five sisters disappeared from the edge of the cave entrance. Chen Qinghan squatted down and checked the soil around the cave entrance.
"This is not a new dig." Chen Qinghan twisted the soil residue, put it under his nose and smelled it, then frowned.
"What?" I saw him lowering his head and not talking, and squatted down and looked into the hole.
"The hole was dug by that hole." Chen Qinghan blurred his title, but he could tell who he was talking about. If it was a tomb robber, he could say that deliberately blurring his identity must be a chicken shit.
We all know that chicken shit can move, and the "inspection passage" has no doors or windows, so she can of course pass by at will.
But why is she digging a hole here? Could it be that she wants to escape from prison by digging a hole?
"We don't want to go down, it's too dangerous." Jerry saw that we both planned to go down and find out, and quickly waved his hand.
"You stay on it." Chen Qinghan wanted to keep some food for him and took out two packs of compressed biscuits from his pocket. "When we come back, if we haven't come back in 24 hours, you can find a way to leave yourself."
"Don't, don't leave me behind! I'll go down with you." Jerry pushed the cookies back. Compared to death, he was obviously more afraid of staying alone in this dark underground world.
"I'm afraid it's useless. No matter how afraid you are, you still have to--"
My last word was interrupted by Chen Qinghan. He pressed my shoulder and said, "You go down and explore the way."
As he said that, he deliberately pinched my shoulder hard and threw me a warning look.
I would love to say that I was just comforting Jerry and trying to help him overcome his fear of death.
But Chen Qinghan obviously didn't think so. He grabbed my hand, put me down the hole in the ground, and prevented me from finishing his words.
The space below is really the only one who can enter, because it is too narrow. Chen Qinghan looks thin, but his actual skeleton is not small. Needless to say, Jerry is, he has no chance.
I asked Chen Qinghan to pull me up again, so that the hole could be entered first before climbing forward. There was no room for turning around, otherwise I could only climb backwards.
The director changed his position. Chen Qinghan put my head down into the hole, and then crawled forward bit by bit, constantly cursing her in her heart. Since she could turn into a big snake, why did she not change into an excavator when digging the hole? With such a narrow space, her hands and feet couldn't move at all.
However, my physical fitness is strong enough and I don’t need to stop and rest. Although my movement amplitude is small, my movement frequency is fast. After climbing forward for about ten minutes, I heard someone talking.
I slowed down, moved forward as gently as possible, stretched my ears and listened to what the person in front was saying.
The person in front of him was the five sisters group. They were discussing the underground river and saying that this tunnel might lead to the underground river. Ji Shi wanted to escape from the ancient tomb along the underground river.
Of course, chicken shit is what I call that person, and they call her "priest".
It seems that the five sisters know more information than us, and so are the two people from Sakura. Perhaps those who have that logo can obtain information related to the tomb of the Heavenly Girl from special channels.
I searched for memories related to the "priest" in my mind, and the information I found was pitifully small. What was the secret of living, the mysterious behavior, and the rare people...
Is Chicken Shit such a person?
Of course, priests are just a profession, and there are more than one person holding this position, so if you want to know the information related to chicken shit, you still need to know her name.
The five sisters in front mentioned the "traitor" and "punishment". There was no burial object in the tomb of Chicken Shit, nor was there a mural decoration, only a "beautiful" mechanism, which looked quite similar to my tomb.
So are such tombs built by the Heavenly Girls clan for criminals?
My tomb is more dangerous than chicken shit. Does this mean that I am more sinful than her?
But why did she become like a chicken shit, but I stayed in a zombie for thousands of years?
The Heavenly Girls clan not only built tomb monsters, but also monsters, and they all have a bit of unique skills. I wonder if they each have a superpower like Marvel heroes.
When I found that my mind was a bit off, the five sisters in front suddenly stopped.
They seemed to have climbed to the exit and sent two people out to check.
Sure enough, there was a sound of running water at the end of the cave, and maybe there was an underground river.
The two women who went out to check came back and said there was a bridge over the river and asked others to go and see it too.
All five people crawled out of the hole, and the girl whistled shoulder-to-shoulder, saying, "I didn't expect that there was another world below."
"Looking at that bridge, it doesn't look like the style of the Tiannv tribe." said the girl with waist-length hair.
"Yes, but the ancestors of this place did not have such technology to build such bridges? They wouldn't have been formed naturally, right?" The girl Qi Erfa also joined the discussion.
"It doesn't matter, it's important to find a priest." The short-haired woman spoke and ended their discussion.
"I don't know where this river leads. Is it possible that she will take the waterway?"
"That's what if the river flows deeper into the groundwater system."
"Let's go across the bridge and have a look. Maybe she's there."
The short-haired woman pondered for a moment and finally accepted the suggestion. The five people went up the bridge one after another. I don’t know how long the bridge has been in this underground world, but it still has not collapsed today, and it’s okay for the five of them to go there.
When they passed, I came out of the hole, walked around, and moved my hands and feet.
There is a river beach outside the entrance of the cave. This river is wide enough, but the water flows are not fast, so when I listen to the sound in the cave, I didn’t expect it to be such a wide river.
There is indeed a bridge on the river. Standing on this side of the bridge, you can't see the people on the other side of the bridge, which shows how wide the river is.
The bridge mentioned by the five sisters leads directly to the other side from here, a straight suspension bridge with no support under the bridge, and the bridge deck is not arched, and the bridge deck is less than half a meter away from the river surface.
If the water level of the underground river rises, the bridge will be flooded by the river. I am also a little curious now. Who built this bridge, which has no piers to bear the load and is often impacted by the river, but can stand for many years.
