Chapter 325: The Walking Corpse Department
The deep corridor became wider and wider, and the traces of algae gradually faded away from the walls, becoming smoother and smoother.
This change made everyone look forward to it. They stared closely at the picture coming from the man with glasses. After holding his breath for five or six minutes, Uncle Zhang reminded: "If he can't reach the end, he has to return, so let him pay attention." How long can I hold it in?"
Carlos is also worried. He has only seen the man with glasses hold his breath for eight minutes once. Judging from the current situation, he doesn't know how long the man with glasses can hold on.
For convenience, the man with glasses did not wear an oxygen tank. It was originally my first try. If it didn't work, I would come back and wear the equipment. This would be more reasonable.
"Are you okay? Pay attention and come back when you're almost done. This is just the first try." Carlos reminded the communication device.
I saw the man with glasses making an "ok" gesture in front of the camera and still swimming inside.
Mr. Li was very calm: "You all underestimate him. I said he has good water skills, but he is not ordinary good. Ten minutes is not difficult for him."
Carlos was really surprised: "He is so powerful? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"This is our family's hidden treasure." Mr. Li smiled, holding a cigarette in his mouth but not lighting it. "What do you think, the treasure can be known to others casually?"
Others are a bit complicated. There are several families of tomb robbers, and every family is looking for a weapon to ensure an advantage after entering the tomb.
The Li family's trump card today should be Mr. Li and a man with glasses. The others are either recuperating at home or taking on other jobs.
“Look!” Shijiu interrupted their chat and shouted in surprise, “We've entered, it's really a tomb!”
A few people turned around and looked back at the screen. A piece of light appeared in front of the man with glasses. The bright light was like the only light in the whole world in the darkness, making people's hearts throb.
He speeded up and swam forward. Finally, his head was out of the water and he breathed enough oxygen.
The man with glasses floated on the water, looked around, and passed the picture back.
Not far ahead is the shore. On the shore is a flat stone platform. The light comes from the stone wall above. A luminous pearl the size of a woman's hand is embedded in it. It is surprisingly beautiful.
This is not what makes the well-informed team members jealous, what makes them all excited is...
Behind the stone platform is the tomb that everyone misses!
A thick and beautifully carved stone door stood quietly with the weight of history. The man with glasses standing in front of the stone door felt suffocated, and it was a kind of awe.
This is the burial place of the famous Demon Dao thousands of years ago.
The man with glasses walked forward, and with the support of Carlos, he reached out and touched the stone door.
The bumpy feeling traveled under his gloved fingers, and he tried to fumble for the mechanism above.
He was in a very emotional state now, not only nervous, but also shocked.
After a legend dies, his body is forgotten in this deserted underground, separated by water. And now, he is the first to arrive here in thousands of years—
The stone door opened after he pushed it.
The man with glasses was a little confused for a moment. They all know with experience that they must find a mechanism to open this kind of door. Why doesn't this Demon Tomb Palace play its cards according to the routine?
The people outside were also silent. Through the gap of the opened stone door, a broken lock could be seen.
what's the situation.
Has anyone come in here? !
The bespectacled man's expression changed drastically. He took a step back cautiously, and then looked at the stone platform again.
The stone platform is damp and no footprints can be seen, but in the crack of the open door, you can faintly see traces of dust being blown around.
"Exit first - no, wait for us there, don't move, we will send people in now." Mr. Li took the communication device from Carlos's hand, and his deep and vicissitudes of voice soothed the bespectacled man's heart. A trace of panic.
This panic is not because they are afraid of being ambushed by those who get in first. Everyone is doing it for money and secrets. Although what they are doing is illegal, they will not kill their competitors when they see them. This circle is so big, and maybe there will be more in the future. They have to cooperate, so few tomb robbers will directly kill people.
What makes the man with glasses panic is that to them, the secret of resurrection in the Demonic Path's tomb is far greater than the treasure.
If someone goes in early, it means that the secret of resurrection in the tomb is no longer safe! Who knows how long others have been in there? Maybe it was after San left Live Tail Lake to look for them, maybe a few days ago.
“Wait, let him come closer and aim the camera near the lock.” Yu Xing suddenly spoke up, giving a rare order.
Carlos raised his eyebrows, saw Yu Xing's calm expression, and chuckled: "Look, isn't this the benefit of having you join the team?"
He patted Mr. Li and said, "Do as he said."
Master Li cast his eyes deeply on Yu Xing, pressed the communication device, and repeated Yu Xing's words. The man with glasses immediately followed the instructions and squatted in front of the door.
The picture was very high-definition. Yu Xing squinted his eyes and watched it for a long time, then raised the corner of his mouth: "That's it."
Mr. Li: "That's all right, please step back."
Hearing Master Li's words, the man with glasses silently returned to the water, found a position where he could see the gate, and kept surveillance, waiting for his teammates to arrive.
On the shore of Live Tail Lake.
“What's wrong with the lock? Is it left behind after someone broke it?” Carlos asked expectantly.
"Yes." Yu Xing's answer obviously disappointed the team members who were also looking forward to a negative answer. They opened their equipment one by one and started wearing it, and also greeted others.
“Quick, quick, get down now!”
"I'll leave it to you to look after us, and wait for our good news." "Let's go, Mr. Li, just tell me that none of us are afraid of taking risks, so we're going to do it with you!"
This move was really unexpected. Before this, everyone thought that Demon Dao's tomb was well hidden. They couldn't find it, and neither could other teams. Everyone's mentality was more or less disturbed when they saw the traces of the invasion. .
Yu Xing consoled him: "Don't worry. In fact, I have seen another team with good strength in the mountains. They definitely didn't arrive for a long time. If we go in now, we can catch up in time. After all, the tomb palace is not a tourist attraction. We have to arrive first." Let's take a look first. Its secret must be very deep. If someone comes in from the front, it's time to help us.”
“Other teams? Whose?” Mr. Li's eyes sharpened for a moment.
Yu Xing did not answer directly, but turned to Shijiu: "Remember Ai Li."
Shijiu was stunned for a moment: "Of course, my memory is not that bad. Isn't Aili the little doctor in Brother Sun's team?"
"Like you, she is also an undercover agent, but the team she is in is much more confidential than Brother Sun, so you should not have found them, just like they have not found you... or maybe their information More than you, I knew you were coming." Yu Xing said, "Ai Li later left Brother Sun's team like me and walked in front of me."
“Good guy, is that woman so good at pretending? Shijiu didn't even notice?” Ash was extremely surprised.
Shijiu couldn't accept it: "Oh my god, when I was in the team, she looked really ordinary."
"Not only is she extraordinary, but like Carlos, she should have some kind of unique ability. She is definitely a very difficult character." Yu Xing said, "If I checked correctly, the force that Ally belongs to should be Os. Special Company.”
"Oster Company..." Carlos murmured and repeated. Obviously, he was no stranger to this name after having experienced many deductions in this world.
“Damn it, why are they everywhere!” Shijiu scolded directly, “When will this lousy company close down?”
“With the strength here, of course I can get involved in everything.” Uncle Zhang took the cigarette handed over by Mr. Li, the lighter made a crisp sound and the flame ignited.
It seems that everyone is very familiar with this company. Yu Xing turned around calmly and winked at Carlos.
Carlos understood, spread his hands and said: "Yeah, there is no way, who is the famous financial consortium in the entire intercontinental world? They do any kind of money-making work, and they are divided into many departments. This time, I am afraid that the walking department is involved again. ”
Walking means walking and walking. You can understand the nature of this department just by hearing the name Yu Xing.
"As expected of Oster, he surveyed the terrain so clearly and found the bottom of the lake one step ahead of us." Lin said in a deep voice. He studied geography, and surveying the location should have been his job, but he lost on this point.
Oster Company's financial resources are sufficient to support the best exploration equipment in the world. At this point, he is indeed incomparable.
"It's okay, Lin. Your main function is Feng Shui, not field measurement." Uncle Zhang blew out a smoke ring and patted Lin on the shoulder.
"How much does Oster Company know about the tomb?" Yunika squinted her eyes, "Even if they are rich and capable, when it comes to this trip to the tomb, we definitely have an advantage over them. We just don't know... they How long have you been in there?”
This is what everyone is most worried about.
Yu Xing smiled, and the leisurely calmness in his tone indirectly affected the team members: "Just now I took a closer look at the marks next to the lock."
"Because it has not been opened for many years, the dust inside is very thick, and you can clearly see any traces of someone passing by. Inside the door, the dust is underneath, and the lines are complete. Where the lock is, the dust lines are radiating like a spider web. It was caused by the lock falling down."
"Some of the dust on the lock has been shaken off, and it is scattered around the lock. This is not the point. The point is that there is no dust accumulation next to the lock that was pushed along with the door. Just now he-" Yu Xing was referring to The man with glasses said, "The opening of the door is so small that even a person can't get through if he turns sideways. If someone really wants to get in, the opening of the door will definitely be wider than ours."
"Do you remember what it looks like next to the door? There is a thin layer of fresh dust accumulated under the door, which is very obvious on the ground. But there are no other marks on the ground, and there is no one on the lock, which means that this time we pushed the door, it was the second time. It was opened every time, and the people in front came in batches."
Since everyone was in a bad mood, Yu Xing explained quickly without wasting time.
Yunika: "I understand. The Ellie you mentioned just now walked a little ahead of you. She belongs to Auster Company. But now that they have entered the tomb palace, there is no trace of opening the door for the second time, which means that Auster Company The team sent waited for Aili to come back before entering the tomb."
Calculating the time, it's just over a day.
Uncle Zhang agreed: "So, her team probably entered just one day ago."
That's what Yu Xing wanted to say. He reminded him in place and said: "Be prepared to go into the water. Put the electronic equipment in a waterproof bag. It's only one day away. We have many opportunities to get the secret of resurrection."
Having said that, when the six people who needed to get into the water dived to the bottom of the lake and started swimming, Yu Xing could feel that except for himself, they were all very fast.
Wearing a tight-fitting waterproof suit, the bag on the back and the painting tube and Tang knife hanging on the waist are also covered with waterproof covers. When we get to the shore, we can throw away the covers and the things will still be dry.
Yu Xing swam to the last position, looked at the figures entering the corridor one after another in front of him, and thought about the situation after entering the tomb palace.
He has several good teammates in the Tomb Palace. Auster Company has Ai Li. Since this is a deduction, Ai Li should also have a few deducers around her.
As long as the deducers meet each other, things will be much more complicated. The deducers' abilities are unpredictable, and fighting each other will probably be the biggest variable in the tomb.
Brother Sun's team can be ignored. He is the only one sent by the investigation studio. Therefore, the only forces that can compete for the secrets of the tomb are the Auster Company and Carlos' team.
After entering the Tomb Palace, the team faces four threats. One is Oster Company, the second is the Tomb Palace Mechanism, the third is monsters such as zombies, forbidden women and fish monsters, and the fourth is time.
The overlapping or fusion of time in the tomb must be the top priority of prevention. The flashlight in Yu Xing's hand swayed and finally followed him through the corridor.
I didn't feel anything when I looked outside just now, but when I finally entered the corridor, I felt a suffocating cramped pressure coming from all directions. The dark surroundings gave people the illusion that there was some kind of monster hidden there.
He swam for a while, always counting the number of flashlights in front of him to make sure no one was missing along the way.
He did not wear a camera on his head, and the number of devices was limited. There were seven people in total. Only the man with glasses, Ash, and Mr. Li wore cameras. There was only one communication device for each person. People outside looked at the little red dots belonging to their companions on the radar. , feeling positive and anxious at the same time.
When we were about to reach the end of the swim, a man with glasses came to meet us from the front. His flashlight flashed and pointed a direction to the companions who were following us.
Such a long distance is too difficult for people with ordinary water skills, but it is not necessary to carry oxygen. The bottle is very heavy, and it can only be left on the stone platform if it is brought up. If someone from Oster sees it, it will be in vain. I gave equipment to people.
So they all swam over with one breath.
Yu Xing raised his head from the water, his hair was clumps in the water, water droplets fell from his fair face, and he seemed extremely relaxed amidst the loud gasps of others who could not control themselves.
