Based on the principle of safety first, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan started to expand around this point.
What Hu Bayi originally thought was to just choose a direction and go around the side wall of the tomb to find a way to get in.
But then he thought about it and felt that instead of blindly selecting like this, it would be better to expand the location directly so that a few more people can help.
After all, they are not professional robbers, so Chen Ziyan and the others can also help.
Chen Ziyan has no objection to this, and other people have no objection even more, because even if they go to help, it is Chen Ziyan and Wushuang Ghost.
As a sick patient, Da Jinya would naturally not let him do anything. As for Ding Sitian, the only woman in the team, he would not let her do anything easily, otherwise it would appear that the men are too useless.
After the staff doubled, especially after the powerful player Wushuanggui was added, the speed of excavation was accelerated, and it didn't take long to create a space of more than ten square meters.
"This tomb is bigger than we thought!" Hu Bayi put down the engineering shovel in his hand and wiped his sweat and said.
They have dug out such a large space, but there is no sign of touching the edge.
Wang Kaixuan was already sweating profusely and gasped, "Why don't you go look at the stars again, Lao Hu?"
There was no telling how long it would take to continue, so he wanted Hu Bayi to make sure again so that he could stop the loss in time.
Hu Bayi couldn't understand the subtext of this guy. He glanced at him and said, "It's useless to look at it a few times. Let's just keep digging here."
Before taking action, Hu Bayi had already verified it several times. This is the core position, but this core is a bit big.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think?" Seeing that Hu Bayi didn't accept his opinion, Wang Kaixuan turned his attention to Chen Ziyan next to him.
Chen Ziyan was looking at the space they dug out, wondering if the Qixing Lu Palace was under his feet. Hearing Wang Kaixuan's words, he replied casually: "I think we can try to go down directly from here."
He felt that instead of digging like this, it would be better to take some risks and try to crack the mechanism. Anyway, Wushuang Ghost is here, and strong acid can't do anything to him.
Hu Bayi's first reaction was to object: "Mr. Chen, if we start from here, the risk is too great. If it accidentally causes a collapse, we may be no different from falling into a sulfuric acid pool."
If it was cracked before, the possible danger would be sputtering, but now it is not that simple.
In particular, Hu Bayi didn't have deep knowledge in government agencies, so he didn't want to take this risk.
He can crack most of the mechanisms, but there are many factors that need to be considered whether the cracking methods are good or not, and most of his methods are of a relatively blunt type.
When Chen Ziyan heard what he said, he said: "Then keep digging. Since you have seen something, it proves that the place is not wrong."
As for Wang Kaixuan's proposal, he had never thought about it.
If we leave the core location alone, is it possible to look for the edge areas?
"Masters, come up quickly!" At this moment, Big Gold Tooth's shout suddenly came from above.
Chen Ziyan raised his head and asked: "Lao Jin, what's the matter?"
"We have a new discovery here! A major discovery!" Da Jinya replied.
After receiving this response, Chen Ziyan was a little curious.
Then he said to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan: "Let's go up and have a look!"
He knew that although Da Jinya usually likes to show off his words, he is still very reliable in serious matters. Now that he has said this, then Ba Cheng has really discovered something.
Several people immediately ignored the lake and hurried outside along the specially left earth steps.
As soon as Chen Ziyan showed his head, Big Gold Tooth said quickly: "Master Chen, come over here!"
As he spoke, he walked not far away.
And where he was going, Ding Sitian was squatting there looking at something.
Chen Ziyan didn't waste any time and followed directly behind Da Jinya.
When she got closer, she discovered that there was a fist-sized hole in front of Ding Sitian, and she was shining a flashlight into it.
"What did you find?" Chen Ziyan asked.
The hole was too small, and there were differences between men and women, so he didn't go directly to it.
Ding Sitian retracted her gaze and said: "There is a very wide space below. The specific area cannot be estimated, but there should be some kind of plant growing directly below. It looks like... a tree."<
/p>
She paused slightly after speaking because she remembered the Hydra Cypress that Chen Ziyan had said.
This is also the reason why she did not rashly expand the hole. Who knows if a vine will suddenly protrude from it.
"Underground space? Hydra Cypress? Let me take a look!" Hu Bayi, who was following Chen Ziyan, heard this and immediately came to Ding Sitian's side, took the flashlight and looked inside.
Compared to Chen Ziyan, he doesn't care so much.
While Hu Bayi was observing, Wang Kaixuan approached Chen Ziyan and asked, "Mr. Chen, do you think this is the same as the time we were in Yerengou?"
This familiar scene reminded him of the memory of Yerengou. Although it cannot be said to be exactly the same, there is nothing wrong with saying that it is similar.
Chen Ziyan shook his head: "No."
How could it be the same? Yerengou was just a general's tomb, and if I guessed correctly, it started out as a prince, not to mention that it was still the imperial tomb of King Zhou Mu.
Even though the tombs in the Western Zhou Dynasty were not that luxurious, they were still beyond the comparison of a general’s tomb.
Wang Kaixuan wanted to ask something more, but Chen Ziyan did not give him this chance and asked: "Lao Hu, have you found anything new?"
He was not in a hurry to go see it himself. Given the size of the cave in front of him, everyone would have similar results, so he could get the answer he wanted by asking Hu Bayi directly.
"It's the same as Si Tian said." Hu Bayi thought for a while and said, "If the plant down here is not Hydra Cypress, it should be a natural underground cave."

There are no artificial traces below, so there is such a guess.
"Is that so? We'll find out if we expand the entrance of the cave a little bit." Chen Ziyan made a decision immediately.
In this situation where they can advance, attack, retreat or defend, even if there is Hydra Cypress below, it will not cause much trouble to them.
If you really can't handle it, just follow the entrance of the cave. This is not a soft sand layer, and the Hydra cypress can't come and go freely.
"Then expand it a little and go in and take a look." Hu Bayi also thinks this is a good idea.
In other words, it can be said that this is the only way in front of them, and it is possible that they can just give up.
After finishing speaking, he directly used the engineer shovel in his hand to expand along the entrance of the hole.
The hole looks very short, but in fact the surrounding soil is still very thick, otherwise so many of them would have fallen into it long ago.
However, the soil was thick, so it did not have any impact on the excavation work. Hu Bayi did not need help from anyone else, and he made a hole about half a meter in diameter in a few clicks.
Although Wang Kaixuan and Wushuang Ghost cannot pass through a hole of this width, it is basically no problem for others.
More importantly, with such a hole, their advantage of being able to move forward and retreat freely is not affected.
"Fat man, fix the rope!" After completing the expansion work, Hu Bayi took out a bundle of climbing ropes from his backpack, tied one end around his waist, and threw the other end to Wang Kaixuan.
Needless to say, Wang Kaixuan had a tacit understanding with him. Before Hu Bayi finished speaking, he was already ready.
When Hu Bayi saw this, he didn't hesitate and entered directly from the entrance of the cave.
Chen Ziyan asked Wushuanggui and Wang Kaixuan to grab the rope together, while he came to the entrance of the cave and looked down.
This is the first time he has seen the situation inside. Just like what Hu Bayi and the others said before, there is a very wide space below, and directly below the entrance of the cave is a very thick tree.
However, from their angle, they could only see the top of the tree, not the height and thickness of the tree.
But the moment Chen Ziyan saw this tree, he had already concluded that it was the Hydra Cypress.
Take a peek and get the whole picture.
The slender top alone is already so thick, so one can imagine the condition of the tree god.
And in this area, apart from the Hydra cypress in the Lu Palace, no other tree can have such a scale.
Hu Bayi didn't hang in the air for long. After falling about three meters, he had already landed on the tree.
Even the top position is enough for him to stand firmly.
After standing on the branch and looking down for a while, Hu Bayi raised his head and said: "There are at least dozens of meters below."
The flashlight light was obstructed by the branches, so it could not shine directly to the bottom, but through the visible area, Hu Bayi made this inference.
After Chen Ziyan heard what he said, he said to the people around him: "You guys wait here first, let's go down and explore the way!"
Wang Kaixuan said quickly: "Master Chen, why don't I go with Lao Hu? You should stay up there and take charge."
He knew that they had to keep people up there, so if Chen Ziyan went down, he wouldn't be able to follow him, so he wanted to fight for it.
Chen Ziyan glanced at Wang Kaixuan and did not force him: "Okay, then you go, fat man, but you must pay attention to safety."
Then he took the rope and ordered to Wushuang Ghost: "Wushuang, you also follow down and protect them."
It's one thing to let Wang Kaixuan go, but Wushuang Ghost still has to follow.
Wang Kaixuan had the intention to let the Wushuang Ghost stay up there, but he didn't wait for the words to come out.
The big Jinya next to him said weakly: "Master Chen, Fat Master and Wushuang brothers are so strong, I'm afraid they won't be able to get down."
After hearing Big Gold Tooth's words, several people remembered that there was no way they could pass through Hu Bayi's expanded hole.
If Wang Kaixuan continues to think about it, he will have to expand it again, but this will not be safe.
Ding Sitian suddenly said: "How about I go."
However, Chen Ziyan immediately refused: "You are thoughtful, and you can better take care of them by staying up there. Leave the exploration of the road to Lao Hu and me."
His words were not polite, but there was another reason why he didn't say it, and that was that if Wushuang Ghost couldn't go down, he really didn't feel comfortable letting a few people go down.
Who knows if anything will happen in this place, so it would be safer for him to go alone.
Chen Ziyan didn't say much. After saying hello, he grabbed Hu Bayi's rope and swung down.
It was said that he was just swinging down, but in fact he was just sliding down. Hu Bayi was only a little away from the entrance of the cave at this time, and he had reached it in a few seconds.
"Let's go."
After landing next to Hu Bayi, Chen Ziyan fixed the flashlight on his body, grabbed his weapon and jumped towards the branches below.
Hu Bayi was also not at all conceited. He untied the rope from his body and followed closely with an engineering shovel.
The two people were like vigorous apes, jumping and jumping on this huge tree, descending at a stable frequency.
The further down, the more Chen Ziyan's heart beats.
Because he found that the height of this Hydra cypress was a bit beyond his imagination.
Although the specific scale of this thing was not mentioned in the original plot, he felt that it would be good if it was half the size.
Now they have descended almost fifty meters, but they still can't see the ground, which is enough to explain everything.
It feels like even if we drop another fifty meters, we may not be able to reach the bottom.
This was completely different from what he knew. The Qixing Lu Palace in the original plot was far from having such depth.
After continuing to descend ten meters, Hu Bayi glanced down and asked Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, this place is probably very dangerous!"
Although the journey was calm and not even a bug appeared, he felt an indescribable feeling of fear in his heart.
It was as if they were being targeted by something extremely terrifying, and this feeling became stronger as they went deeper.
Although Hu Bayi claimed not to believe this, he still believed it in his heart. Especially after experiencing so many strange things in recent years, it was difficult for him not to believe that there were indeed some things in this world that were difficult to explain scientifically. p>
Especially what happened in Longling not long ago, even people from three thousand years ago are still alive, so what else is impossible to happen? It’s gone.
Although they still look the same as before, these things have inevitably affected several people.
Maybe only Chen Ziyan, who knew the inside story in advance, was better off.
"Look further down. If it's dangerous, we'll retreat." Chen Ziyan said in a deep voice.
We have already come this far, and he will not be willing to give up halfway now, so even if there is danger down there, he has to see it with his own eyes.
And even before coming down, Chen Ziyan had expected this.
If it is what he knows, then there are four kinds of dangers here, one is a corpse turtle, one is a blood corpse, one is a blue-eyed fox corpse, and the other is the hydra cypress under your feet.
However, the possibility of King Zhou Mu cannot be ruled out, but the premise is that the other party is still alive.
The most threatening thing to them is actually the Corpse Turtle, which seems to be the easiest to deal with, because sometimes the numbers are really overwhelming.
But this is for other people, but Chen Ziyan just has a way to deal with this kind of creature.
Therefore, the risk is greatly reduced, which is also one of the guarantees for him to come down.
