Chapter 1665: Deep Ancient Caves, Mummies in Forbidden Lands
An inexplicable wind blew out the torches in the hands of Liu Shiba and Solanta again...
"Ah? Boss... where are you, boss?"
Solanta's scream immediately sounded.
"Call me a hammer, I'm behind you!"
Liu Shiba's sinister voice sounded behind Solanta.
In the darkness, Solanta's scalp was pounding and she hesitated:
"Boss, why does your voice sound so scary..."
"laugh!"
The sound of matches sounded and the two torches were lit again.
Liu Shiba stood there, glaring at Solanta with a sullen face and said:
"My voice is scary? That's because I was startled by your scream."
Solanta was stunned for a moment and said in astonishment:
"Selling ointment, right? The darkness is really scary..."
Liu Shiba rolled his eyes at Solanta, lowered his head and whispered to Lao Hei:
"Old Hei, open the way!"
"Woo..."
Lao Hei looked at Liu Shiba, let out a low whimper, turned around and ran towards the darkness.
Liu Shiba and Solanta held torches and followed Lao Hei quietly and quickly into the darkness...
The darkness seemed boundless. Although Lao Hei was walking in front, he was sensible and never exceeded the range of the torches in Liu Shiba and Solanta's hands.
The two of them and the dog followed Lao Hei silently for a few minutes before they saw a tall exit.
The shape of the exit is like an arch. The arch is inlaid with solid green bricks. It is about three meters wide and two meters high, far exceeding the two corridors in front.
Under the arch, Liu Shiba and Solanta saw a white wooden sign stuck on the ground with four words "No entry!" written on it.
"This is also a corridor. If you go forward from here, you should be at the ancient tomb that Old Man Wang mentioned."
Liu Shiba said calmly.
Solanta followed Liu Shiba and asked blankly:
"It's that Li Mu's grave, right?"
Liu Shiba turned his head curiously and said:
"Do you also know Li Mu?"
Solanta responded triumphantly:
"I not only know Li Mu, but also Sun Tzu's Art of War. Don't you know West Point Military Academy?
In military academies, Chinese military classics from ancient times to the present and classic battle examples of some famous military strategists are regarded as required reading materials for officers?"
Liu Shiba pursed his lips and said:
"Not stupid."
Solanta said doubtfully:
"The only thing I don't understand is why Li Mu's grave is here?"
Liu Shiba's eyes flashed with cold electricity, and he said softly:
"I don't understand either. I wouldn't be surprised if the tombs of any of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, the Qin Dynasty or the Early Tang Dynasty, were found here. Only Li Mu is puzzling to me..."
Solanta seemed very interested at this time and said quietly:
"Let's go in and have a look?"
"nonsense!"
Liu Shiba rolled his eyes, took out two cigarettes and handed one to Solanta.
Putting the cigarette to the tip of her nose and smelling it for a while, Solanta smiled and said:
"Actually, we should be satisfied now. At least we still have cigarettes to smoke. I heard in Dingbian City that these Chinese cigarettes come with green diamonds. They are quite luxurious."
Liu Shiba immediately understood the meaning of Solanta's words. As he walked, he impatiently took out a cigarette from the gold-touching order and threw it to Solanta:
"These are two pieces that Xiao Nian bought for me a few days ago. You can save some money by sharing one piece."
"Hey! Thanks, boss."
Solanta happily put the cigarette carefully into the backpack behind her, and whispered as she walked:
"Xiao Nian, this girl is actually quite good. She works hard and doesn't complain. A few days ago, she didn't say a word even after being tortured by you all night. The next day, she still got up early in the morning to get us food."
How could Liu Shiba not understand the meaning of Solanta's words? He couldn't help but sneered:
"Damn it? Now you have energy when talking about women and you are not afraid anymore?"
Solanta said with a bitter face:
"It's really dark down here and it's scary. If you stay silent, I'm sure I'll feel guilty. I wouldn't be so nervous if we just chatted."
Liu Shiba smiled and said:
"Anyway, I will leave the other two girls at the top of the mountain to take care of the daily life of you guys. When I get there, you can return to the top of the mountain.
I've given you the opportunity. As for whether someone is willing to have an affair with a foreign devil like you, that depends on your own ability."
"I understand what the boss is thinking, hehe!"
Solanta responded with a smile.
Just as he was talking, Liu Shiba's expression suddenly changed, he stretched out his hand to stop Solanta and said:
"stop!"
"bowl?"
Solanta shrank back, immediately biting the torch in her mouth, untied the Barrett behind her, held it in her hand, and loaded it with a click.
Liu Shiba said slowly:
"Look at Lao Hei stopping. He is very nervous. He must have discovered something."
In the darkness, Solanta couldn't see clearly even though she was holding a torch in her mouth, so she could only moan...
Liu Shiba looked around with a torch and found that they had walked out of the arched corridor and came to an empty cave.
The two of them walked gently behind Lao Hei and looked forward quietly, but they didn't seem to see anything in the darkness.
"Old Hei, did you discover something? Is there danger ahead?"
Liu Shiba squatted down and gently stroked Lao Hei's head and asked.
"Woo! Roar..."
Lao Hei was speechless and could only roar in a low voice, looking towards the darkness ahead with a pair of golden eyes.
"Give me the torch!"
Liu Shiba reached out his hand and gently took Solanta's torch from his mouth.
"Hey!"
Then, Liu Shiba took a step back, jumped forward several meters high and threw a torch into the air.
Forty or fifty meters away, the torch slowly fell to the ground like a small flare.
At the moment when the torch was about to fall to the ground, Liu Shiba and Solanta simultaneously noticed that there seemed to be a circular circle of light flashing slightly on the ground.
Then with the light of the torch and the faint light of the circular aperture, Liu Shiba and Solanta finally saw clearly what was in front of them.
There was a dense crowd of people, with a human-shaped shadow standing every two meters, almost covering the entire circle.
The size and diameter of this cave seemed to be only about a hundred meters. It could be said that the entire ground range in front of the two of them was within the flickering aperture on the ground.
"This? What's in this, people?"
Solanta almost screamed.
Taking advantage of the residual light of the torch, Liu Shiba squinted and took a look, and said calmly:
"Don't panic, those standing there are not people, but pottery figurines!"
Solanta stretched out her hand and said tremblingly:
"Those standing ones are pottery figurines?"
"Yeah! It should be."
Liu Shiba frowned and responded slightly.
But then, Solanta stretched out her hand and pointed downwards:
"What about those? What are those clothes lying at the feet of the pottery figurines?"
In fact, Liu Shiba also saw those figures that looked like they were lying down. Liu Shiba and Solanta were both people who had taken level five gene enhancers, so their eyesight was naturally extraordinary.
Liu Shiba's expression became more and more solemn, and he whispered:
"The ones standing are the pottery figurines, and the ones lying down are the dead. They are the dozens of people you told me about the Wang family missing here earlier."
That’s right! In addition to the pottery figurines, what appeared in front of Liu Shiba and Solanta were dozens of withered corpses...
