Maitreya narrowed his eyes and looked at me with a sneer: "I almost got deceived by you. If you knew the secret inside, why would you still wander around the house?"
I also laughed: "Since you have planted spies at the entrance of Longshan Pavilion, you must know very well what my purpose is. People from Longshan Pavilion have already entered. You Ye should know better. Do you think we know nothing about it?" ? I was looking for the message he left in the house. To tell you the truth, given the danger inside, if just a few of you go in, I guarantee that you will die completely." After saying that, I took out the stone I got in the main room. Throw the piece to him.
His expression changed as soon as he saw the stone flakes, and a guy behind him also took a breath and stopped talking: "This..."
Since the person behind Maitreya has infiltrated into the whole incident, I believe he will not fail to understand the meaning of the stone tablets. If I want to survive, I can only pretend that I am an insider and continue to act. For people like Maitreya, I must show my face. own value.
Maitreya waved his hand, weighed it for a while before his expression softened, and looked at me with a smiling expression: "I think the second master is reliable, so I'll ask you to go with our brothers this time. Let's get out safely." , I will see you off personally."
I thought to myself, fuck your mother, if you can let us go, Datou will stop washing feet.
Maitreya's murderous intention towards me has just been revealed. I know that even if I agree to let him in, it will only be a poison to quench my thirst. Zhao Gu said that I should lead the troops to move reinforcements. Now I can delay it for a while. Looking back at the front yard, Datou, Datou, I am now a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, so just ask for blessings.
Maitreya's people had already cleared out the bottom. I stepped on the stirrups and went down. I saw another hole appeared just opposite the hole we had opened, with bricks neatly laid out on both sides. I was surprised, and I wanted to pretend to be a I had known this to be the case.
Maitreya's men were holding miner's lamps to clear the way in front. The hole was not big, so we all had to bend down and walk in it. This walking method was very strenuous, and we were sweating profusely after a while.
The secret passage was very long. I looked at my watch and it had been half an hour since I walked out. There was no exit in front of me. The person who opened the way found a cavity of about five or six square meters. I thought I could hold off for a while, so I complained that I was too tired. When it was time to take a rest, Maitreya wiped the sweat from his head, looked ahead, and called their people to stop and rest.
I sat down against the wall. My waist was really sore. I took a breath and looked around at the same time.
This cavity was like the space where we made soil when we came down. There was some dark stuff on the ground. I rubbed it with my feet. It looked like some kind of moldy stuff. I thought it might be some food. Residues, it seems that this secret tunnel has been dug for a long time.
Another thing that concerned me a lot. During the process, I noticed that the shovel marks on both sides of the secret passage were very even. At first glance, I could tell that I was an expert at digging holes for thieves. This was very consistent with Wan Hongbing's identity. He was an old Changsha native master. , this skill is still possible.
If it was really him, what was his original intention of digging this secret tunnel? An old country man pretended to buy an old house, but actually dug a hole in the well in the backyard. This scene looks like a tomb robbing incident. It's fucking unreasonable to say that he has access to sewers.
After I dragged on for more than ten minutes, Maitreya asked people to continue walking. The cave was very narrow, and we had to walk one by one. Not long after we walked, a guy in front of us roared for no reason and stopped cursing.
I stretched my neck to look, and it turned out that the guy who was clearing the way was crawling in front and found a small dirt bag. He opened it out of curiosity and saw that there was a fresh pile of feces inside, mixed with dirt, and he grabbed it with his hand. .
Maitreya looked back at me and I shrugged, indicating that it wasn't me. At the same time, I was also wondering, was it Han Sheng? It turned out that Han Sheng also wanted to poop.
After this incident, the team continued to move forward. The shit was so smelly that I always held my nose while passing by.
After walking forward for another thirty or forty minutes, the team suddenly stopped. It turned out that we found a fork in the road. Maitreya and I turned sideways to look at it and found that there were not two forks in the road, but three, leading to the left, right and front respectively.
I frowned. All three roads were dark and led into the distance. Judging from the amount of work alone, it exceeded my expectations. This cannot be completed by one person overnight.
I asked the person next to me for a flashlight and crawled over to check. This closer look immediately made me discover something fishy. I shouted, the shovel marks on both sides of the fork and the fork were different. I guessed it must be Wan Hongbing. Drill holes into this.
Originally, there was a large-scale robbery hole underneath.
I climbed into a fork and turned my flashlight to high light to shine inside. I saw some blurry things. I thought about it and gradually realized where it was. Unexpectedly, Wan Hongbing had dug a hole in it. .
I crawled back, patted the dirt on my hands, and said to Maitreya: "Congratulations, you have arrived at the revolutionary anti-Japanese scenic spot. Next, Tour Guide Cao will introduce the history of the scenic spot to you."
He frowned in confusion. I sat down against the fork and drew on the ground for him to see: "This is our inn, this is the lake and mountain, we are here now."
"So far? How did you know?"
"Hushan was an anti-Japanese battlefield before. At that time, the Japs took over the mountain and almost hollowed out the entire mountain. They dug hundreds of tunnels underneath and there were bunkers above." I threw the flashlight to him, " Look, there are supporting structures in the tunnel. As expected, you will also see cement reinforcements in a while. This kind of project cannot be done by just a few people. Except for digging a Japanese tunnel, there will be nothing like this nearby. A tunnel of modern scale."
Maitreya looked like this, and I secretly smacked my lips. Thanks to the "tutoring" from the innkeeper, otherwise I would have shown my timidity.
Maitreya asked me where to go next. I looked at the three forked roads, pointed to the front road and said, go this way. He looked at me with some confusion, but I pretended not to see him and said to go quickly.
In fact, I was already worried. Who knows where Zhao Hongbing has gone? I don't even know whether he deliberately dug the hole into this place or whether he bumped into it by accident like the rest of us. But I know I must not hesitate at this time. , with Maitreya's character, he knew that I was deceiving him, and Zhao Gu and I would not be safe.
The passage became wider and wider as we walked, and we could now stand up and walk. In fact, we had entered the little devil's tunnel. We also encountered several side roads during the journey. The big one was the same as the current one, and the small one was just better than a dog hole. It's the kind that can only be climbed in by one person.
I now completely regard myself as the Wan Hongbing who came in for the first time.
He deliberately bought the old house in Wangyu Town and broke in through a hole. It was definitely not to save money on tickets to the scenic spot. There must be something in the mountains that attracted him.
Then it's probably just an accident that he got here. I'm looking at these holes from his point of view. He will definitely not go into those small holes. Judging from the direction of his robbery, he is most likely to go straight south. .
Not far after walking out, a small room appeared in front of him. The guy at the head suddenly stopped and made a silencing gesture to the people behind him, indicating that something had appeared in front of him.
