However, Ashue's expression did not change. Instead, she frowned slightly and said, "Is this your grandfather's? But I didn't see him."
My heart skipped a beat, and I had an ominous feeling, but in the end I suppressed my uneasiness and asked her where she got the ring. I know the old man's temper very well, and he rarely knows how to wear something as personal as this.
Lost unless something unexpected happens.
Ashue was silent for a moment, then said: "Do you still remember that we were in that crack? That's where I saw this ring finger, but I accidentally slipped it when I went to pick it up. You were cleaning the moss at that time,
Then we fell here, you should know it by now!"
After hearing this, I suddenly understood that it was the moment before we slid down. At that time, I thought that Axue fell on me because she was weak due to injuries. It turned out that she was trying to pick up the ring.
So since this wrench was picked up from the crack, it means that the old man has been there before, but what happens after that? Did he enter here or go out from there?
At this time, I began to become impatient. I finally got some clues about the old man, but now I can't figure it out at all. Even if I can find the direction in which the old man is walking, it is a comfort to me.
Seeing that my forehead was sweating, Axue chuckled lightly and said: "Wang Fo, you are too nervous. With your intelligence, you should be able to think of it. In fact, this problem is very simple. Look at that stone platform.
It's so slippery that it's impossible to climb up from below, so I conclude that your grandfather fell from there just like us. But I don't know what kind of danger he encountered that actually forced him to enter that crack."
"The old man is in danger? Will he be okay?" I asked hurriedly. Now my heart is completely confused and I can't even keep up with my thoughts.
"You don't have to worry. The fact is that your grandfather has already gone out. I think he must have dug the hole down here."
I let out a sigh of relief, and then gave a wry smile. In fact, I should have understood these problems as soon as I thought about them. I just care about them and it is confusing. Maybe I want to find some comfort from other people's affirmative words!
Turning to look at the stone bed, my mind began to spin again. If the old man really made the hole, it means that his situation is not very bad. But according to what the fat man said, the hole leads to the fault.
And there was no other exit there, so where did the old man go? How did he leave? What was he going to do?
"Wang Fo, it seems that it depends on you whether we can leave here this time." At this time, Ashue suddenly said to me.
"Rely on me?" I couldn't help but smile bitterly. Now I have fully realized the gap between myself and these veterans. It's up to me to lead them out of here. To be honest, I really don't have the confidence.
I told her that you should stop looking up to me. I know my own worth. Even if I say that I am more than I am, I think it is too much. How can a complete dragster have the ability to lead you out of here?
I think the only way I can help you is to cause you as little trouble as possible!
"Wang Fo, you are too arrogant to belittle yourself. Everyone has their own strengths. To be honest, you know more than us. But this time it's just your lack of experience. It's understandable that you rely on others.
But I'm afraid I have to have your help this time, because you are the person who knows your grandfather best here."
"you mean?"
"It's very simple. Since Fatty and the others didn't find another exit from the robbery hole, then the exit must have been hidden by your grandfather. Based on your understanding of your grandfather, where do you think he would hide the exit?
"
I lowered my head and pondered. What is the old man’s character? Speaking of it, one of the more obvious things about him is that he is cautious. No matter what he does, he must have a backup plan. He is also a little suspicious. He will not trust someone easily. In fact, this is not the most outstanding thing.
The most outstanding thing about him is that he likes to take the initiative in everything. He is very good at planning and likes to lead others by the nose rather than being led by the nose.
With a character like his, when he knew there was danger behind him, the holes he created that could be directly seen must be fake. It was just that he deliberately set up obstacles to confuse others, and the real exit was somewhere else.
The most amazing thing is that this place should be hidden at a certain point in the obstacle that is not easy to detect. In other words, the exit is still in the robbery cave, but it is hidden by him. It can not be easily discovered by others.
, that’s only...
"I know, the exit is above, no, it's at a certain point above the cave." I said confidently. Most people who climb parallel caves like this usually only pay attention to the front, both sides, and the situation below.
, few people pay attention to the top of their heads. With the old man's caution, he will definitely place the exit in a place where it is not easy to be noticed. If an unsuspecting person climbs this hole, he will not think about it until he reaches the end.
It is a fake. In that case, most people will basically think that the real robbery hole should be somewhere else, and will not notice whether there is something wrong with the fake robbery hole itself. This is the power of the old man.
By the time we lifted the stone bed, it was already a day later. Three of the four of us were seriously injured. Fatty's stomach was drilled by an insect and a hole has not healed yet. Axue's arm was shot.
, and I was covered in injuries all over my body. Although none of the injuries were too serious, when added together, it was very serious.
Fortunately, we were very well prepared in terms of medicines when we arrived, including many antibacterial and antiviral drugs, so we were able to control the injury from getting worse.
When I saw the robbery hole, I had a strange feeling in my heart. Is this what the old man made? The fat man said that this robbery hole was drilled very carefully. Only one person can pass through it. It is not the usual round shape.
It is not square, but semicircular in shape. The bottom is like flat ground, while the top has a curved dome. This kind of cave is not easy to collapse, and it is also very easy for people to crawl inside.
It can also be imagined that when people crawl in a cave, they use their elbows to support the ground and crawl forward little by little. This requires that the ground must be flat to make crawling easier. Of course, the straight up and down kind
Burglary holes don't need to be like this. It only needs to ensure that the human body can pass through normally. Square burglary holes are too labor-intensive. So the fat man said that this kind of semicircular arc-shaped burglary hole can be seen by an experienced veteran at a glance.
of.
We got into the robbery hole one after another, this time the fat man took the lead, I followed the fat man, Axue was behind me and the monkey was at the end. He was the only one among us who was not injured, so most of the things
He carried them all.
The fat man also kept joking, saying that monkeys are so cunning. When encountering any danger, they would run faster than real monkeys. I fully agree with this point.
Along the way, we paid careful attention to the top of the dome, but after we passed more than half of the cave, we still didn't find anything.
"Young prince, where is the exit? It's almost over. Could it be that you guessed wrong?"
I shook my head, I was very confident about this. I said: "No, I know the old man very well. The exit must be up here, and the possibility is greater the further back you go. Think about it, how can a person get into such a small place?"
In the thief's cave, one must be very vigilant at first and focus on the surrounding environment. However, as time passes, the person's spirit will become more relaxed and the possibility of discovering flaws will be lower. So I am sure that the old man will
The exit must be near the end of this robbery cave."
The fat man laughed after hearing this and said: "Your old man is really cunning and cunning. Fortunately, you are here. If I were alone, I would not be able to find the exit even if I drilled ten times."
What happened next was exactly as I thought. When there were only about ten meters left in the cave, I suddenly found a ring mark on a piece of hard soil on top of the dome. After careful observation, I determined that it was the sign of a finger being pulled.
Something like that is pressed up.
I took out the ring ring that the old man had left in my arms, and compared it, it just fit.
"Found it." I said excitedly, and the three of them stopped. The monkey behind handed me a Luoyang shovel, and I began to dig carefully around the circular mark.
After digging about half a meter deep, the soil above began to loosen, and then all of it fell down, revealing a hole diagonally upwards.
"Really here? My young prince, your old man is really amazing. He deserves to be called the Rat King. He can seal this hole from above and make it so that no one can notice it. With this skill, I have been chasing after him all my life."
I can't get on." The fat man in front kept sighing. It is true that the old man's method of digging holes is amazing and he is one of the best on the road. Let alone the fat man, I am afraid that it would be impossible for anyone else.
You can definitely find it.
I headed up the hole and crawled up less than five meters, but had to stop.
"Little prince, why don't you go up?" the fat man below kept urging. I responded, sighed, and continued to climb at night.
Sure enough, just after climbing a few meters, the fat man below started shouting: "'Hutou, you don't listen to me, I will beat your ass when you get back.' Wow, little prince, this is what your old man left."
Coming down? He is really good at predicting things. He knows that only you can discover this robbery hole, and he even left a special admonishment, hehe, I will beat your ass, little prince, now you will be in trouble."
I was a little depressed, and I secretly blamed the old man for what he was doing. Telling others not to laugh made me feel uneasy. The old man has a very stubborn temper. If he said he wanted to beat someone, he must not have run away.
.
After climbing up diagonally for almost twenty meters, the Thief's Cave became straight again. After climbing for a while, it extended upward again.
When I reached the end of the cave, I touched a stone slab and pushed it against the roof. The stone slab was loose. I carefully removed the stone slab and then drilled out along the entrance of the hole.
