After digging for a while, until he felt that his energy could no longer support him, Lin Cheng stopped, raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and whistled to Coke, who was still digging the hole in front of him.
It can stop.
After turning over and jumping out of the tunnel, Lin Cheng, with Bai Ling's help, rinsed the dirt on his hands with water, wiped his face randomly, then walked to the side and sat down under a tree, lit a cigarette and rested
.
Seeing Lin Cheng holding a cigarette in his mouth and closing his eyes to rest, Bai Ling waited for a while and couldn't help but asked him: "What are you going to do next? Should you find a place for the team to rest first, or should you rest here for a while?
Just keep digging?"
Hearing Bai Ling's inquiry, Lin Cheng slowly opened his eyes, flicked the long ash behind and said: "What should I do... Reason tells me that the overall condition of the team is now poor and urgently needs a rest, but intuition tells me that we are still far away from this.
The end of the pipe should be not far away, so I don’t know what to do now, how about you help me choose one?”
Seeing Lin Cheng actually throwing the question back to him, Bai Ling couldn't help but glared at him and said, "If I had to choose, I would definitely choose the first one! But I understand that you actually had a plan in mind, so the two of us
Rather than wasting time here, it’s better to take a break and continue working.”
After saying that, she turned around and jumped directly into the tunnel to continue digging.
Although the rest time is not long, Bai Ling is a powerful ability user after all. Even though her body still feels a little tired at this time, she does not intend to waste time resting anymore, because as she just said
In this way, Lin Cheng actually had the results already in her mind, and she had dug all the way to this point, and she herself was not willing to stop there.
Seeing Bai Ling jump down and start digging without saying a word, Lin Cheng shook his head, took a last puff of cigarette, then put out the cigarette butt, and jumped down and started digging too.
…
Another two hours passed unknowingly as the three of them kept digging holes.
"Wow..."
Throwing the excavated soil aside, Lin Cheng stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He turned around and saw that Bai Ling had straightened up at this time. His handsome cheeks were stained with a lot of dirt.
She looked a little embarrassed because of the dirt, so she couldn't help laughing and said: "Can't you see, you, a woman who usually pays more attention to her image than anyone else, are no worse than me and Coke in doing such rough work!"
Hearing this, Bai Ling couldn't help but glared at him, "dig your hole carefully, there is so much nonsense!"
As she spoke, she bent down again, waved the shovel in her hand, and was ready to continue working.
"Woof woof!!"
But before the shovel in her hand fell, Coke, who had been rotated up to rest, suddenly called out. Hearing its call, Lin Cheng couldn't help but look at Bai Ling, and then saw them drop the shovel in their hands.
The shovel quickly ran towards the direction where Coke screamed!
"Wow... Wow..."
After removing the dense branches and leaves blocking the road, it took Lin Cheng and Bai Ling less than a minute to rush to Coke. Seeing that it was raising its head and looking fiercely in one direction, they quickly turned their heads to follow its line of sight.
As soon as I saw it, I was stunned!
Through the gaps between the branches, they found that less than a hundred meters away from them, the ancient trees and flowers that were originally lush and annoying had all disappeared, replaced by a low and flat lawn. At a glance,
This lawn covers an area of about three or four acres, but due to the influence of the building made of huge rocks in the middle, the area that can be observed from this lawn is relatively limited.
However, Lin Cheng and Bai Ling had no interest in this lawn at this time. All their attention was attracted by the pyramid-shaped building made of gray boulders in the middle of the lawn. This building was less than a hundred meters tall.
meters, covering an area of less than 1,000 square meters. The appearance looks ordinary and there is nothing eye-catching about it, but the momentum it exudes is not to be underestimated. Just taking a look, Lin
Cheng and Bai Ling both felt a strong sense of history from this building!
In this place that looks like an ancient forest, there is an ancient building that looks like a mausoleum hidden. This thing makes people feel a bit mysterious no matter how you look at it. And based on the direction they calculated just now by digging the glass pipe,
That glass pipe may eventually lead to the location directly beneath this building!
"It seems... we should have found the rightful owner."
Not in a hurry to approach the pyramid-shaped building in front of him, Lin Cheng frowned and said to Bai Ling while observing the situation around him.
"I think so too."
Hearing this, Bai Ling nodded first, and then saw her face confused and said: "But what I am more curious about is that this building has been here for countless years, and the glass pipe looks like
But they are extremely new. How can there be any connection between these two things, the new and the old?”
“Who told you that looking new is the same as something new?”
Hearing Bai Ling's question, Lin Cheng shook his head, looked at her with a funny face and said: "In my opinion, this entire underground city is a relic left over from the ancient times, no matter how the things inside look like
Brand new, but in fact they all belong to the category of ancient relics! Therefore, whether it is the glass pipe that looks brand new or the pyramid building in front that gives a strong sense of history, it is very likely that they are actually products of the same era, and the difference is only in shape.
I just gave you this illusion."
"That's...okay."
After hearing what Lin Cheng said, Bai Ling realized that she had entered a misunderstanding. In fact, if she thought about it carefully, she could understand that before she came to the apocalyptic sinkhole, so many scientists could not open the outermost side.
The Talisman Gate, doesn't this mean that no one has entered this dungeon for a long, long time? And if no one has entered, how can there be new things in it?
Feeling that Bai Ling seemed to be entering a state of declining IQ again, Lin Cheng frowned, interrupted the messy thoughts in her mind, and said solemnly: "Be careful! Since we have arrived here, it is very likely that what will happen next
I will meet Vincent, remember, you and Coke must not be impulsive once you see him, and follow my instructions in everything, do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand!"
Hearing Lin Cheng's warning, Bai Ling nodded quickly, not daring to think about it any more. He followed him and pushed aside the branches and leaves in front of him, and slowly walked towards the pyramid building in front of him.
