Afterwards, Chen Ziyan and the others began to organize an evacuation.
Although a simple fortification was built here, all the black-faced turtles nearby should also have been cleared.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand in everything, just be afraid of the unexpected!
So spending the night here is not a good choice. It is far less reassuring than returning to the ground.
Without further ado, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these two days, Chen Ziyan and others continued to repeat the previous routine, looking for a suitable location, clearing out the black-faced cockroaches entrenched there, then using local materials to build fortifications, and finally using Wang Kaixuan as bait.
Fishing for nearby black-faced cockroaches.
This kind of operation can be said to have reduced their overall workload by at least half than expected.
Of course, during the methodical settlement process, they also encountered an even larger black-faced cockroach.
However, relying on the advantages of the terrain, these more lethal big guys did not cause them any real trouble.
The size of these big guys has meant that they cannot enter those narrow underground passages.
In the process of clearing the money, Chen Ziyan also gained a deeper understanding of the creature with a black face and a human face.
He felt that their social structure model was very similar to that of ants and bees.
For example, those larger black-faced spiders can be seen from the connecting channels in their areas. They basically will not leave the area where they are, and they should usually rely on the support of the spiders and spiders to survive.
Through this characteristic, Chen Ziyan guessed that the black-faced spider worm is probably like an ant or a bee, and the core of the population is the so-called spider queen.
These larger black clams are, not surprisingly, the guardians of the core area.
If this is the case, it would be good news for Chen Ziyan and the others.
This means that they only need to deal with the Spider Queen who is responsible for producing offspring, which is equivalent to cutting off the future of this ethnic group from the source.
In terms of numerical values, it can be said that the task progress has been directly increased by at least fifty percent.
At the same time, Chen Ziyan was secretly glad that he chose the second option.
If his guess was correct, then the difficulty of completing the first option would simply increase in a straight line, and even he was not sure that he would be able to do it.
While Chen Ziyan was thinking, Wang Kaixuan quietly came over and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, do you think these big guys are guarding some treasure?"
When he was studying these spider corpses that were nearly a person tall, he suddenly thought of this question and wanted to ask Chen Ziyan for his opinion.
Wang Kaixuan felt that with the current development, the shady people he would encounter in the future would probably become bigger and bigger.
He was familiar with this routine. Didn't they all say in those Western painting books that the guardian beast of the treasure is just like the lizard dragon over there.
The possible appearance of the treasure instantly aroused Wang Kaixuan's enthusiasm. He didn't even care about his physical fatigue and immediately ran over to inquire about the news.
When Chen Ziyan heard this, he glanced at this guy speechlessly and reminded: "Have you forgotten, these black-faced bastards are tomb-guarding beasts?"
He remembered that he had mentioned this matter, and it seemed that the fat man must not have listened carefully at that time.
"The tomb guard beast..." Wang Kaixuan's high emotions came to an abrupt end.
After Chen Ziyan reminded him, he also remembered that such a thing really happened.
These black-faced beasts are indeed the tomb guardian beasts guarding the ancient tomb deep inside.
Hu Bayi said at this time: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with what you said, Fatty. In a sense, this ancient tomb is just a large treasure chest."
Wang Kaixuan was a little disinterested: "Hey, aren't you thinking about some unexpected surprises?"
In his opinion, the ancient tomb was already in their possession, and it was not worth being happy about.
"who!"
At this moment, a sharp shout suddenly sounded, interrupting the conversation of several people.
They quickly looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a militiaman at the entrance of the passage, looking inside with a gun on guard.
Obviously, the sound just now was made by him.
When he got closer, Chen Ziyan recognized this militiaman, it was Pan Ziyi whom he was planning to recruit.
"Little brother, what's going on?" Hu Bayi glanced at the dark passage and asked.
He heard clearly who Pan Ziyi shouted just now!
This meant that what he saw just now was not a black-faced creature with a human face. It was most likely a person, at least a humanoid creature.
As for whether he is a human being or not, it is not yet certain. After all, there is nothing evil going on under the ground.
Especially since this place is within the scope of an ancient tomb, it is even more possible.
Sure enough, what Hu Bayi thought was true. The next second he got a positive answer, and heard Pan Ziyi say: "I saw a figure in this passage just now."
Chen Ziyan asked: "Human figure? Are you sure you saw it correctly?"
When he heard this, the first thing he thought of was the group of people who came down before them.
Speaking of which, several days have passed. Even though they have been active underground for more than two days, they haven't even seen a shadow of that group of people. This is obviously unreasonable.
In Chen Ziyan's view, even if some people were imprisoned in the Ghost Tomb by the Wushuang Ghost and were squatting there with him, it was impossible for everyone to go that deep.
You must know that the black-faced turtles on this road are not vegetarians. If ordinary people want to pass by their territory, they have to peel off their skins.
Therefore, this made Chen Ziyan a little confused.
It's understandable that there were no living people to be seen. Maybe those people were too weak, and they were all packed up and taken back to their lair by the black-faced worms, and became their food reserves.
But there wasn't even a corpse in sight, which seemed a bit strange.
Chen Ziyan doesn't think that the black-faced people will believe in any development principles.
What they should do more is to fill their stomachs first and then take back the remaining prey.
And considering the way they eat, there's no reason why they wouldn't be able to see their devoured corpses.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But now Pan Ziyi said that he saw a human figure, which made Chen Ziyan think of another possibility.
Maybe it wasn't that those people were too weak, but that they were very strong and could handle the black-faced beasts underground, so they didn't leave any corpses along the way.
But because the environment here was too complicated, they could not find a way out. This situation continued until they came down.
The sound of gunfire gave the other party guidance and allowed them to successfully find themselves and others. However, because there were so many people here, those people had to hide and watch in secret and did not dare to make any move.
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Ziyan felt that this seemed very possible. After all, no one stipulated that there should be no masters on the opposite side.
While he was thinking, Hu Bayi had already entered the passage and checked it out.
After returning, he said solemnly: "There are indeed traces left by someone. I found some footprints inside, and judging from the scale, there are quite a few."
As a professional soldier, this level of investigation is just child's play for him, and he can only get the information he wants at a glance.
Hearing this, the corners of Chen Ziyan's mouth twitched slightly.
This is really a good but bad spirit!
I just guessed that the other party might not have been tricked by me, and might still have a large number of people hiding in secret. Unexpectedly, I got the evidence of Stone Hammer in a blink of an eye.
Wang Kaixuan also looked a little more serious: "If this is the case, then we have to be more careful next time."
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you.
Many times, it may be extremely difficult to achieve something, but it is much easier to do damage.
Even if you think about it, you can know that these people have absolutely no good intentions towards them, especially now that we are still in a state of darkness and darkness, it is not a fun thing to be secretly tricked.
"Take everyone with you and let's go to the next location." After thinking about it, Chen Ziyan made a decision.
He originally planned to leave some manpower behind to clean up the place, but now it seems that this is not necessary.
If you keep too few people, you're afraid of being attacked by surprise, and if you keep too many, you're afraid of delaying the next thing, so it's better to leave them all.
Anyway, there are heavily armed police officers on the ground on guard. If those secretive people want to sneak away, they will be trapped in a trap.
But what Chen Ziyan never expected was that things were completely different from what he imagined.
Even...from the beginning, this matter was beyond his control.
In an underground space not far from them, more than twenty people were waiting silently.
Following the sound of rustling footsteps, a strong young man arrived here.
He walked up to a middle-aged man who was guarded by others in the center, bowed his head respectfully and said, "Master Jiu, they have almost reached the core of the black-faced cockroach's lair."
Even in such a place, this middle-aged man is still wearing a crisp suit, and even his idol's hair is taken care of meticulously.
Hearing this, his frown softened slightly, and his dry and hoarse voice spoke: "In this case, our journey should be easier."
