Chapter 693 Black Water
Du Fei thought for a while and said, "Comrade Xiucheng, I appreciate your professional ability very much, but I feel that the way of thinking needs to be changed. Let's not consider economic benefits. Where is the most likely entrance?"
Yang Xiucheng was taken aback for a moment, but his mind didn't react for a while.
As the saying goes, the ruler is longer and the inch is shorter.
Often a person has a special talent in a certain field, but there will be various defects in other places.
The same goes for Yang Xiucheng.
Instead, Gong Yong came to his senses and continued, "Comrade Du Fei, you mean the people who built this place are the kind of big dogs who don't consider the cost at all?"
When Du Fei heard this, this description was apt. Prince Qing was really the biggest dog.
Yang Xiucheng also understood, but frowned, still disapproving.
He was born as a poor boy, if it weren't for Xinhua, he would still be herding sheep!
After graduating, he went directly to the army to serve as a soldier. I have never seen the so-called big dog who treats money like dung.
Gong Yong knew him well, guessed what he was thinking, and immediately glared and said, "Xiucheng!"
He only called out his name without any unnecessary reprimands or orders. Yang Xiucheng understood it, curled his lips and said, "If you have to say that, it's here."
As he spoke, he pointed to the middle of the back room, where the coffin was originally placed.
Du Fei followed his hand and looked over.
There stood a pedestal carved from a single block of white marble.
Originally, after Zai Zhen died, his coffin would be placed here.
But this place has become a big warehouse, which was sealed up in advance.
It is naturally impossible for Zai Zhen's coffin to be sent here.
After cleaning out all the silver coins, the base of this white marble is particularly conspicuous.
Du Fei checked it before, but didn't see anything.
But since Yang Xiucheng pointed here, he must not be aimless.
Gong Yong scratched his head a little. The previous few places were all brick walls, so just use a chisel and hammer.
But such a large piece of white marble is three meters long and 1.5 meters wide, and the middle is tightly stitched without any splicing.
It is estimated to weigh more than ten tons, and it will definitely not be able to be moved by manpower alone.
Fortunately, Gong Yong is also a veteran engineer, so he directly asked someone to build a wooden frame and put on a jack.
However, to his surprise, even if he bent the wooden bar with the thickness of an adult's calf, the base of the white marble still remained motionless!
Gong Yong was not surprised but delighted.
It stands to reason that no matter how heavy the base of this piece of white marble is, it should be able to lift it up with a jack.
Now that there is no movement at all, it can only explain one problem.
This base is not placed on the ground, but has a connection structure with the bottom!
Du Fei and Yang Xiucheng also noticed it and looked at each other.
Yang Xiucheng didn't care about this kind of slap in the face.
He is a very pure person, right is right, wrong is wrong.
And being able to find the right direction is the most important thing for him.
Yang Xiucheng stepped forward, put his ear on it, took a small polished hammer, and tapped lightly.
After a while, he straightened up again.
Gong Yong hurriedly asked how?
Yang Xiucheng said in a deep voice: "The structure inside seems to be very complicated, and it will take a lot of time to decipher it."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Du Fei, and continued, "If you're in a hurry, you can use explosives."
Gong Yong also looked at Du Fei and said, "Comrade Du Fei, what do you think?"
Du Fei didn't even think about it, he just waved his hand: "Put the explosives on!"
This wasn't a puzzle game, he didn't have time for such trouble.
This answer was very against Gong Yong's temper, but Yang Xiucheng was a little disappointed.
He is very interested in this kind of mechanism, if Du Fei gives him time, he is willing to try it.
pity……
But obeying orders is the bounden duty of soldiers.
Yang Xiucheng quickly adjusted his mentality and began to prepare to drill holes and shoot.
Du Fei knew the power of the explosives, so he didn't dare to go forward and hid far away.
Watching Yang Xiucheng quickly calculate in the notebook, while instructing the engineers to drill holes in the white marble to place explosives and detonators.
This process took about an hour.
Du Fei had never seen anyone else do this job, but Yang Xiucheng gave him the feeling that at least he looked quite stylish.
After they were done, everyone withdrew outside and pulled a wire from the long passageway.
The detonator was held in Gong Yong's hand.
Until the final confirmation, everyone was ready, and there was no counting down a few numbers, so Gong Yong directly pressed the button.
There was no "bang" explosion, but a series of muffled "bang bang bang".
Immediately afterwards, a cloud of gray smoke and dust gushed out from the opening of the tomb passage.
Immediately, everyone felt a slight tremor on the ground under their feet.
It was like an earthquake!
It took more than ten seconds for the vibration to stop.
Just now Du Fei and the others retreated behind the bunker more than ten meters away from the entrance of the tomb.
The movement of the explosion was expected, but the slight earthquake that followed did not bode well.
Du Fei, Gong Yong and Yang Xiucheng glanced at each other, feeling very upset.
Fortunately, all the silver coins have been transported away before, even if the explosion directly destroyed the place just now, it will not affect the mission this time.
I started the fan and blew it at the entrance of the tomb for more than ten minutes, finally blowing away the dust inside.
First send an investigator with a rope tied to his body to look inside.
After confirming that there was no problem, Du Fei and the others followed in.
When I came to the back room of the tomb again, the previous white marble pedestal had been blasted away.
It was torn apart, broken into dozens of pieces.
In the middle, there was a dark hole with a diameter of more than one meter.
Below the gravel is a spiral staircase descending from level to level.
Du Fei secretly called out "Sure enough"!
At the same time, with a thought, he released Xiao Hong while the others were not paying attention.
Because of the blasting, the previously arranged searchlights were removed.
When I came in this time, there were only a few bright flashlights, all of which were pointing at the blasting, and didn't pay attention to Du Fei at all.
After being released, Xiao Hong immediately ran to the corner of the wall, and blatantly, she darted into the blasted hole first.
The sudden appearance of a black shadow startled everyone.
But after seeing it clearly, it was just a mouse, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
Only Du Fei secretly turned on the synchronization of vision.
Follow Xiaohong down the spiral staircase.
He reached the bottom in a blink of an eye, but just halfway down, he couldn't help being stunned.
The secret room below the tomb is smaller than the back room above, and its height is uncertain.
Because the bottom of this secret room was completely flooded with water!
Du Fei synchronized his vision and saw the black water under the stairs, he couldn't help frowning.
And at this time, above, the two scouts were ready to go down the stairs.
If Xiaohong leaves quickly, she will be blocked on the stairs.
As the first of the "four pests", it wastes food and spreads diseases.
People at this time absolutely hate mice, and there is no saying that they are afraid of mice.
Even if it is a child, as long as he sees a mouse, he doesn't need to look for a brick, just go up and kick it, and it will be trampled into a mouse cake.
Du Fei didn't want Xiao Hong to become the soul of a certain soldier.
Immediately, with a thought, let Xiaohong go into the water first.
The mice can swim, so they are not afraid of being drowned.
But Xiaohong seems to be very repulsed by going into the water, and it doesn't seem like she has wet her hair.
But there was nothing to do, Du Fei gave the order for the second time, and Xiao Hong had no choice but to be obedient.
Descended two more steps, parted the waterline, and swam into the darkness.
The two investigators who came down from above also faced Xiaohong's dilemma.
Nor did they expect that the stagnant water would completely flood the chamber.
However, the water still flows down from the hot spring above, and even in the twelfth lunar month of winter, it does not freeze, but emits a trace of heat.
"Report! There is water below." An investigator shouted.
Gong Yong also saw the glint of water below, and ordered: "Try the depth of the water."
"Yes!"
The lower part responded, took out the folded ruler, straightened it and plunged into the water.
"1.2 meters... 1.3 meters... 1.2 meters..." The scout took three places and found that the depths were different.
It stands to reason that the ground of the man-made tomb here is paved with bricks and stones, so it should be flat.
The scout with the ruler stirred it instinctively, and found that the bottom was not the ground, but something soaked in the water.
Take a ruler and touch it with a little force, it is not heavy, and it can still move!
The two investigators couldn't help but look at each other, all showing solemn expressions.
Although the bottom is full of dirty water like ink, the bottom of the water is completely invisible.
They vaguely guessed the following situation.
The two retreated to the top and immediately reported to Gong Yong.
At the same time, Du Fei's complexion was not very good-looking. Just now, by synchronizing with Xiaohong's vision, he saw more things underwater.
When Gong Yong heard it, his face was heavy, and he waved his hand: "Go to the water pump!"
After waiting for about half an hour, more than 20 soldiers from the engineering battalion chanted, stepped on a simple mountain road, and carried a diesel water pump from a truck down the mountain.
The diesel engine vibrates greatly. In order to prevent resonance, the water pump was not dared to be lifted into the tomb.
Outside, a workbench was built from the soil from the previous excavation of the tomb.
Put the water pump on top and flick out a black rubber tube that runs down the back chamber of the tomb.
With a burst of "chug chug", the sound of the diesel engine starting.
After a while, a stream of black water sprayed out from the drain of the pump.
Just like in the tomb, the black water was still and did not emit any peculiar smell.
Now it was completely stirred up, and a stench instantly diffused from the drain.
Some nearby soldiers were caught off guard, as if they had eaten two catties of rotten eggs in one bite, and their stomachs turned upside down in an instant.
Some people reacted faster and immediately shouted: "No, it's poisonous!"
Fortunately, it is not a closed space. Although the stench is strong, it will dissipate when it is blown by the strong north wind on the mountain.
It was difficult to deal with the inside of the tomb, as the rubber tube vibrated in the water, the stench spread out one after another, it really irritated the eyes!
Thanks to Gong Yong's experience, he led people out early, leaving only two people with gas masks staring at them.
At first, Du Fei was a little worried about whether Xiao Hong would be poisoned.
Unexpectedly, this product was not affected at all.
Swimming around in the black water, he quickly found a platform in the corner and shook the water off his body.
Xiaohong's fur is very oily and doesn't get wet at all.
Then he swung his paws up and dug a hole to get in after a while.
After another hour of waiting, the chamber below was finally drained.
Du Fei, Gong Yong, Yang Xiucheng and the other two company commanders went down the stairs.
Taking a photo with a bright flashlight, everyone felt their scalps tingling for a while at the scene they saw.
