"Ah..." Li Shilan was so frightened that her mouth was covered from behind, and she struggled desperately.
"Don't scream! It's me!" A familiar voice came from behind, and at the same time the hand on his mouth was removed.
"Luo Jian? Why is it you?" Li Shilan calmed down, turned around and asked in surprise.
"Shh... keep your voice down!" Luo Jian lowered his voice and said, "The night watchman is still nearby!"
"Okay, okay!" Li Shilan also lowered her voice. "Didn't you go back to the dormitory? When did you come back?"
"Brother, am I worried about you? Seeing that the dormitory door is closed and you haven't come back yet, I'm afraid something will happen to you!"
"So loyal! But the dormitory door is locked, how did you get out?"
"The window of the toilet on the second floor!" Luo Jian said proudly, "Climb down along the anti-theft iron mesh on the first floor in the corner, it's easy!"
"I really belong to you! I didn't realize that you are not tall, but you are quite nimble!"
"Are you praising me or scolding me?" Luo Jian pretended to be angry.
Before he finished speaking, there was a rustle of footsteps, and the two of them fell silent at the same time.
"Do you think Lao Zhao is making such a fuss? Where did the tomb robber come from in the middle of the night?" came a thin man's voice, "It's enough for you to guard by yourself, and you called me to come over!"
"It's not those students who are causing trouble!" Both Li Shilan and Luo Jian recognized that the voice belonged to the night watchman from before. "Recently, students come here every few days to cause trouble. Do you think it's a treasure hunt?"
"Are you a student?" asked in a high-pitched voice.
"Yes! They are probably from Xijing University of Architecture and Architecture," the night watchman said. "Two girls came here a few days ago! It's just nonsense!"
"Girls? These college students are becoming more and more unruly! Hey! Do you have any cigarettes?"
"Here, just this one! Didn't you just have surgery on the front of your throat? Pay attention!"
"I know, I know, it's okay!" The thin voice agreed and sat on the folding chair. "You go to sleep, I will keep an eye on you for a while."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work! If you get sleepy later, ask me to change you."
"Go, go, cough, cough, it's okay, it's okay!" The thin voice said while coughing. It seemed that he was indeed a long-time smoker.
As the rustling footsteps gradually disappeared, only the occasional cough and the smell of cigarettes were left in the air.
Li Shilan and Luo Jian looked at each other and made helpless expressions at the same time.
After a few minutes, Luo Jian rolled his eyes, touched Li Shilan with his hand, and winked, meaning to ask him to follow him, and then quietly crawled towards the right side of the tunnel. Li Shilan almost laughed when he saw Luo Jian's posture.
He made a sound, but he immediately realized that this was the only way he could avoid being discovered.
After climbing for more than thirty meters, they finally reached the turning point. After turning left, the two of them leaned against the wall of the pit and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Cough...cough..." The thin voice was still coughing from time to time.
"What should we do down there? The pit here is deeper and we can't get up!" Li Shilan looked up and asked quietly.
"Well, I'm afraid I can't go back now. I have to wait and see. When he goes to the toilet, he has to go back to the slope before he can go up."
"Let's climb up to the front and take a look. There are so many tunnels. Maybe there is a shallow tunnel somewhere, so we can go up and go back to the school." Li Shilan didn't give up yet.
"Don't waste your time, we will only go deeper and deeper here!" Luo Jian shook his head.
"Have you been here before?"
"Yes, otherwise why would I bring you here."
"Alas..." Li Shilan wiped away the mucus from her nose and sighed.
At this time, Luo Jian waved to Li Shilan again, indicating to follow him. The two of them did not have to crawl this time, and walked nearly twenty meters further inward.
"You can speak a little louder this time." Luo Jian said as he sat down. "It's not good for that old smoker to hear you!"
"Alas..." Li Shilan sighed again. "I don't know how long I have to wait before I can go back."
"Alan, you don't have to sigh." Luo Jian smiled mysteriously, "After all, we didn't come here in vain, right?"
"What if I didn't come here in vain?" Li Shilan said listlessly. "Tonight is really unlucky!"
"You should have been in the tunnel before me, right? You haven't discovered anything for so long?" Luo Jian didn't seem to believe it.
"Oh, I just found a stone door, but I couldn't open it after a long time of effort! Then I heard someone coming in, and the night watchman was chasing me. Then I kept hiding until I met you." At this point, Li Shilan raised her head and stared.
Looking at Luo Jian, "Don't tell me, you were the one the night watchman was chasing just now, right?"
"Hey hey hey, you're right down there!"
"I'll go! By the way, I forgot to ask just now, how did you think of coming here?"
"I'm not looking for you! I saw no one on the playground, so I tried to come here. Unexpectedly, as soon as I got out of the pit, someone yelled and chased me. I was so scared that I didn't care and ran away in one breath.
I didn’t dare to stop until no one was chasing me. As a result, I found a fun place!”
"A fun place?" Li Shilan seemed to be more energetic, "Have you entered the underground palace?"
"Uh-huh!" Luo Jian imitated the tone used by foreigners when affirming.
"Take me to see it quickly!"
"Aren't you in a hurry to go back now?"
"Anyway, there are people guarding me now, so I can't get out! If I can go into the underground palace and have a look, it means tonight's work was not in vain!"
"Okay, let me show you something, hehe!" Luo Jian said as he stood up and walked deeper into the pit, with Li Shilan naturally following closely behind.
The two walked more than ten meters, then turned to the right. After walking nearly twenty meters, a large pit appeared in front of them. This pit was more than one meter deeper than the tunnel they came from. Li Shilan followed Luo Jian and jumped into the pit.
, look carefully through the light on the wall of the pit.
The pit is about fifteen meters long, ten meters wide, and about five meters above the ground. The ground near the side walls of the pit is filled with pottery pots and bowls, some complete and some incomplete. Between the pots and bowls
, occasionally there are one or two human figurines, which look like servants.
"Wow, I finally saw an antique!" Li Shilan exclaimed.
"What's this! It's just a broken earthen pot." Luo Jian curled his lips, "There are more fun things later!"
"Then take me there quickly!"
"Follow closely! Hehe!" Luo Jian trotted through the pots and jars in the pit.
"Hey, wait for me!" Li Shilan wanted to shout but did not dare to shout loudly, so she could only run after the "crazy" Luo Jian.
There is a tunnel connected to the north side of the big pit. The two people ran along this tunnel for more than 30 meters before stopping. At this time, another iron fence appeared in front of them. No need to look, it must be "pay attention to safety" on it.
Such prompts. The two of them walked around the fence one after the other. Before they had gone far, a corridor extending downward appeared at their feet.
"Hey...the situation here is the same as what I encountered on the left before!" Li Shilan thought to herself, "It's just that the path I found is paved with steps, and this is a corridor."
"How about it, do you dare to go down?" Luo Jian smiled provocatively.
"You've been there before, what else do I have to be afraid of!" Li Shilan refused to be outdone.
"Okay, he's a man! Hahaha!" Luo Jian returned to his unserious bitch look. "But please slow down! It's a bit slippery here. I almost twisted my foot when I went down before."
"Thank you for reminding me, can you leave?" Li Shilan said impatiently.
"Ouch! Are you impatient? Okay, let's go down now!" He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and turned on the flashlight function. The corridor suddenly became brighter. Although it was very deep, the two of them quickly reached it.
bottom.
As Li Shilan expected, there is also a similar stone door here. The lion's head on the door and the patterns carved on the doorpost are almost exactly the same. There is only one difference - this door is open!
