Chapter 296 Carbon Deposition

Tang Sancheng tied the rope around his waist, glanced at the hill, and then slowly went down. It must be uncomfortable to have the rope tied around his waist. Tang Sancheng felt very uncomfortable every time he was hung up, and it was not the same this time.

Exception, today's clothes were thin, and the rope was cut directly into the flesh, which made it more painful. After a few meters, I had a grimace on my face. I finally reached the bottom and was caught by Qixie: "Are you okay?

"

"It's okay." Tang Sancheng looked at his belly: "It just hurts a little today."

"This is already a cotton rope, solid and soft," Bai Yi said, "This is the south, and I don't have much clothes to wear. There is really no other way. Tang Sancheng, please be patient. Anyway, I am not a person with delicate skin and tender flesh.

"

Tang Sancheng looked at the people in the cave. It should be four to three now, but now it is still four to one. Slender Monkey's companion is not here, and the place below the cave is not simple. It is also like a maze. There are everywhere.

They are entrances, some are open, and some are tightly blocked with stones: "This is another underground maze."

"More than that, the soil here is very soft, the ground is very clean, and there are no extra stones." Bai Yi stamped his feet: "The soil is very soft. It seems that if your companion falls, it will not be a serious problem. Moreover, if you come down,

There is a buffer zone in the middle.”

Tang Sancheng knew that the so-called buffer zone means that when you come down, you will encounter a big tree root and come out from the soil next to it. If a person falls directly, he will definitely hit the tree root first and then continue to fall. This

As soon as it came, the downward gravity was relieved a lot, so Wang Wei did not fall to death. Although Shouhou's two companions also fell carefully, they would be fine.

At this time, the hill came down with cheers. The thin monkey counted their number and said: "It seems that you have to leave one person up there to watch the wind."

"No need." Bai Yi pursed his lips and revealed a slight smile, a very proud smile.

The extended version of the Luoyang shovel made the thin monkey's jaw almost drop. This was not the first time Lei Zi used it. This time he had to be more proficient. He came down in three or two strokes, and then retracted the Luoyang shovel as usual.

The thin monkey was stunned: "Is this a Luoyang shovel?"

"Extended, retractable version." Lei Zi said proudly: "How about it, see you for the first time."

"More than that." Shouhou said: "The front end has also been improved." Shouhou's observation ability is quite keen.

"This is an underground maze. With so many passages, where should we go? Bai Yi took out the painting and tried to find some clues. Unfortunately, the value of this painting is mainly reflected on the ground. As for this underground

, you need to explore by yourself: "Your companion should have chosen a passage and left."

The thin monkey blinked: "In that case, I can only follow you for the time being."

Huh, this thin monkey, Bai Yi can see that he is not a simple guy. Even though he has a small head, his heart is still alive. Of course there is no problem in being together now, but he is afraid that the enemy will show up later, and this competition is inevitable. Bai Yi

Yi sneered: "Of course you can."

Now they have to choose a passage and continue to set off. Lei Zi took the Luoyang shovel and started construction. The Luoyang shovel was in their hands. The real value of the Luoyang shovel is not great. Today, it is finally going to play its original role.

, Lei Zi first walked to a passage that was not blocked by stones, and dug the Luoyang shovel down from the soil. While exploring, he stretched the length. When he felt it to the end, he pulled up the Luoyang shovel, with some mud on the tip.

When he came up, he smelled it and shook his head: "No."

The biggest function of the Luoyang shovel is to bring up the soil from the ground. Experienced bucket collectors can judge whether there is a tomb underground based on the soil quality. Speaking of its history, it is a long time ago. As for how to smell it, take a look at this

Tang Sancheng and Xiaoshan naturally don't understand. Xiao Ning naturally knows the secret from his father.

In all the passages that were not blocked with stones, Lei Zi detected them one by one, and the results were very disappointing. However, Lei Zi did find some clues. Originally, there were many people underground, and the footprints were a bit messy, but

In the passage, because only Lei Zi entered, the footprints were much easier to identify. In one of the passages, Lei Zi found another two rows of footprints. It was obvious that they belonged to the thin monkey companions. They followed this

Entering the passage: "Mom, you are so stupid, why don't you know how to use a Luoyang shovel to explore?"

There was some resentment on the thin monkey's face, and Bai Yi shook his head: "Something must have happened that we don't know about. Well, Lei Zi, it seems that all these passages are old and suspicious, and now only these are blocked by stones.

Live at the entrance of the cave."

Lei Zi nodded, moved the Luoyang shovel diagonally down, brought out the soil, and checked four times in a row, but found nothing. Lei Zi became more and more frustrated. Bai Yi saw that he was tired, so he took it over himself.

, now there are only the last two left. Bai Yi poked the Luoyang shovel in at an angle, brought out a little mud, smelled it, and smiled on his face: "Leizi, if you insist on one more step, the credit will be yours."

Already."

"Damn it, no way." Lei Zi rushed over, picked up a little bit of the mud on the Luoyang shovel with his fingers, finished it, and spat on the ground: "What a bad luck!!"

"What's going on?" Tang Sancheng then asked, "What's the difference between this mud and the one just now?"

"There is a layer of carbon deposits in the mud." Bai Yi said, "This shows that someone has deliberately burned charcoal underground."

"Burning charcoal?" Tang Sancheng didn't understand the principles of chemistry.

"The carbon deposits in ancient tombs can be said to kill three birds with one stone. Firstly, it can dry out the tomb and preserve the body. Secondly, there is charcoal in the soil, making it difficult for thieves to dig holes. Thirdly, it is also the most important.

One thing, when charcoal burns, it produces carbon monoxide, which is what we call poisonous gas, which is tomb poison. Once it enters by mistake, it is a word of death."

Tang Sancheng shrank his shoulders: "Fortunately we have gas masks."

Looking at the cave entrance sealed by stones, Bai Yi was worried about how to open the cave entrance. The Luoyang shovel just shoveled out the charcoal mud about five meters below, which meant that the tomb chamber had to go further down.

Five meters, the location is right at the entrance of the cave. Use explosives? Bai Yi looked at Lei Zi. Lei Zi had been waiting for Bai Yi to give the order. He rubbed his hands and said, "My hands have been itchy for a long time."

Lei Zi took out the explosives from his backpack, first measured the size of the hole, and then began to prepare the explosives in his mouth. During this process, the thin monkey stayed silently without any movement. Bai Yi suddenly

Looking back at his face, I found that he was staring at Lei Zi very excitedly. When he was watching Lei Zi preparing gunpowder, his eyes were almost shining. Is this person excited about Lei Zi or gunpowder?
