Mu Yingchen saw Muchuan coming and greeted him excitedly.
After all, Xiaoying is still a girl, so she is still a little scared to be alone in such a gloomy environment.
Muchuan nodded towards Xiaoying and jumped onto the ground.
"Master, look what I found."
At this time, Xiaoying handed some colorful rags to Muchuan.
"I just found this here. It seems to have been scratched and brought down by the protrusions on the stone wall."
Muchuan took the cloth, looked at it carefully, and gave his own judgment.
"This is what happened."
"After those assassins killed Li Chengqian, they gathered all the people in the government and forced them to jump into the well, thereby driving them into the secret passage here."
"Some of them had a strong desire to survive. When they fell, they tried to hold on to the wall of the well to survive, and their clothes were scratched."
After listening to Muchuan's words, Xiaoying felt that the sounds of men and women begging for mercy and the screams of falling rapidly could be heard in his ears.
Xiaoying said with admiration on her face: "Master, you are so amazing. You actually told the whole story with just a few rags!"
Muchuan shook his head, looking slightly helpless.
Sometimes Xiaoying's blind worship of herself makes her a little overwhelmed.
All in all, Muchuan found the secret passage this time, and at least the big stone in his heart was finally relieved.
But now there is another problem, that is how to open this thick stone door.
Muchuan made a general observation and found that there was no possibility of opening the stone door from the outside. It should be a one-way door.
Even if you want to use brute force to force it open, there is no place to start.
You know, this stone door is tightly fitted, without any force points, and its surface is bare, not even a single pothole.
This is difficult for Muchuan, even if he has ten times the strength, it is useless.
"Master, how about I bring some pangolins over and let them find a way out?"
Xiaoying suddenly suggested.
Hearing this, Muchuan could not help but be stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he had such a powerful weapon as Xiaoying.
Indeed, this stone door is very strong and solid, and it is impossible to open it manually.
But if you let the pangolin, which digs out rocks like mud, you can just ignore the stone door and dig a road to the inside.
"Don't worry, let's look around first. Usually places like this have emergency exits."
Muchuan did not ask Xiaoying to find the pangolin directly, but planned to search nearby to see if there was an emergency exit.
After a long search, Muchuan actually found it!
Under the water, there is an iron rope hidden. This iron rope must have a special function. It can't be to supplement iron for people, right?
The reason why Muchuan was able to discover this iron rope was due to his eyesight that was ten times that of ordinary people, which allowed him to see clearly things in the water in such a dark environment.
As for Xiaoying, even if Muchuan pointed out the location of the iron rope to her, she couldn't see clearly at all.
In her eyes, the water was as black as ink. Not only could she see it clearly, but when she put her hand in, it felt like it had been swallowed.
"Master, point out the location to me, and I'll go down and fish out the iron rope!"
Although Xiaoying couldn't see clearly, he still volunteered to go into the water.
She can't let Muchuan do such a thing, right?
She couldn't bear it.
Muchuan naturally refused. The water was extremely cold. If he went down hastily, the root cause of the disease might be caused by the cold.
Seeing that Muchuan rejected her, Xiaoying couldn't help but become anxious and said repeatedly: "Master, how can I let you go down? You don't have to worry about me. My body and bones are very good, and the water temperature is nothing!"
Muchuan refused again, which made Xiaoying extremely anxious.
"I don't care, unless the master knocks me out, I will go into the water no matter what!"
Xiaoying actually got angry.
Muchuan shook his head dumbfounded, shook the cloth in his hand, and said, "No one needs to go down, I have a way to pick it up."
Mu Yingchen couldn't help but be startled. Then she realized that at some point, Muchuan had tied the rag strips into a simple rope and tied a stone to his head.
This discovery made Mu Yingchen's face suddenly turn red.
She had been anxious for most of the day, but now it seemed that it was all a joke.
Muchuan rubbed Xiaoying's head, stopped teasing her, aimed the stone at the underwater cable, and smashed it down hard.
"Plop~!"
For a moment, water splashed everywhere. Muchuan narrowed his eyes and controlled the rope to get entangled with the iron rope.
After the two were entangled, Muchuan slowly used force to pull them up.
Muchuan did not dare to use too much force, fearing that the simple rope would not be able to withstand it and break.
If the rope really cracked, I would have really gone into the water and fished it out myself.
Fortunately, objects in the water are buoyant. Even if the iron rope is quite heavy, with the help of buoyancy, it will not collapse the rope.
Slowly, the iron rope emerged from the water.
Muchuan quickly grabbed it and pulled it out of the water.
After pulling out a certain length, Muchuan suddenly felt resistance.
This resistance is not great, but it is definitely not the resistance of water.
It seems that it has touched a mechanism!
Muchuan felt happy and pulled harder.
Soon, with a dull creaking sound, the thick stone door behind him slowly opened.
"Master, it's open!"
Xiaoying was very excited and quickly reminded Muchuan.
Muchuan smiled and said nothing. She had already noticed it without her having to say anything.
Things were progressing so smoothly, but it inexplicably gave Muchuan a bad feeling.
However, this premonition disappeared as soon as the stone door was fully opened.
After the stone door was opened, a staircase extending downward was revealed.
Muchuan looked down the steps and saw that the steps were almost endless, and he could not see the end at a glance.
So deep!
Muchuan was shocked, feeling that the stairs seemed to lead to the underworld.
From this point of view, the person who killed Li Chengqian must be a quite terrifying force. They were able to dig such a passage in this inner mountain. The amount and difficulty of this kind of project are simply astronomical!
Once upon a time, Muchuan suspected that Li Zhi was responsible for all this, but now that he thinks about it, he probably doesn't have such strength.
Could it be the force behind Li Zhi?
Muchuan couldn't help but frown, feeling that this case was far more complicated than imagined.
"Master, what should I do?
Shall we go down?"
At this time, Xiaoying's voice brought Muchuan back to reality.
Muchuan hesitated for a moment, but decided to go down and take a look first.
It is said that people with high skills are bold. In this era without thermal weapons, Muchuan, who has been strengthened ten times, is no different from superman.
Not to mention that Xiaoying is still assisting him this time. Even if the front is really the underworld, Muchuan dares to explore it!
