All members of the treasure hunting team looked in the direction Jiu pointed, and at first glance they didn't even see the door at the foot of the mountain.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that not only were there many giant rocks near the place that looked like the entrance, but the entrances to the interior were also completely blocked by rocks of various shapes, with almost no obvious gaps visible.

Several members of the Kyoto University group estimated the thickness of the stones and looked at each other in confusion for a moment.

It was hard not to remind them of these huge rocks, the Dragon-Breaking Stones in some martial arts novels that were difficult to open after they fell. They did not look like they could be opened by manpower alone without the aid of tools.

Finally, Jiu stood at the entrance again, his eyes fixed on the cave entrance, and he walked towards it step by step as if unconsciously.

The other thirty or so people followed him and slowly approached the cave entrance which was large enough for several people to pass through.

When Jiu stood only a few meters away from the cave entrance, everyone could see all the details of the cave entrance clearly.

——This entrance, which was not sure whether it was facing upwards or downwards, was several meters wide and roughly one floor high. The overall shape of the cave entrance was like an irregular oval, or like two diamonds with rounded tips.

There are two circular grooves slightly below the two sides of the hole, which are difficult to find without careful observation. It seems that something rough or sharp has been placed there before. There are also very obvious white scratches on the inside of the grooves.

Moreover, slightly inward from the outside of the cave entrance, one can see several linear depressions that were clearly carved by tools. It can be inferred that before the entrance was damaged artificially, there was most likely a sheet of stone door that could fit perfectly into the shape of the cave entrance.

After seeing the full view of the cave entrance, the first thing that came to Xu Yiyu's mind was the entrance to an underground palace or a mysterious tomb in some adventure movies.

Xu Yiyu thought about it deeply and felt more and more that this speculation was very likely.

She looked up to estimate the height of the cave entrance, and subconsciously tried to push the huge rocks that blocked the passage, but before she could put her hands on the stone, Jiu stopped her.

"Don't move yet!"

Xu Yiyu's hand froze a few centimeters away from the stone surface. She looked back at Jiu, waiting for his next explanation.

She could see that Jiu was very anxious when he spoke, and even his voice had a hint of cracking.

"This place is likely to collapse, and under these rocks... there may be a companion buried who could have escaped with me."

Jiu's eyes had not yet moved away from the stone sealing the door. His gaze seemed to pass through these huge stones and look at someone who had left his life here.

"it is good."

Xu Yiyu put his hand down, looked at Jiu's profile with a melancholy look, and did not insist on trying again.

Every movement she makes now may hurt that body which may still be relatively intact, so it would be better for her not to act rashly for the time being.

The ten people in the practical group and the Kyoto University five-member group looked at each other and saw the same look in each other's eyes.

——Without the help of machinery, ordinary people alone cannot move the stones at the entrance of the cave.

They believed that everyone present should have seen this fact.

Tianlin, who was just watching from the side, roughly observed the situation at the cave entrance, walked up to Xu Yiyu, and saluted her with his hands on his chest.

"Miss Yi Yu, if Mr. Jiu trusts me, I can try to open the hole without harming the remains of that gentleman's companion."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yiyu and Jiu turned their gazes to Tianlin, with Jiu's face still full of disbelief.

"Are you sure?"

"Ninety-nine percent."

Xu Yiyu knew Tianlin's strength, so after asking a simple question, he turned to Jiu to ask for his opinion.

When Tianlin says he is 99% sure about something, it basically means it is 90% certain, and he usually doesn't say too much.

After more than ten seconds, Jiu's expression of disbelief eased slightly. He looked back at the door-sealing stones with a complicated expression, and finally nodded to Tianlin.

"I'm sorry to bother you this time, Mr. Tianlin."

Jiu bowed deeply to Tianlin and then took a few steps back.

Tianlin glanced at all the members of the action team and gestured frankly to a place farther away.

"Everyone, I personally suggest that you stand at least ten meters away and watch. That's where it's absolutely safe for you."

As soon as his assistant said this, Xu Yiyu instantly realized what he was going to do next, so he took the lead and walked further away, until he came to a huge rock that was large enough to cover his entire body, and then he stood still.

Everyone in the treasure hunting team looked at each other, hesitated for only a few seconds, and then walked in the direction of Xu Yiyu.

Xu Cheng hid behind the rock where Xu Yiyu was standing. The other thirty or so people each found a huge rock that could completely hide their bodies and withstand the impact, and then they all stuck their heads out and looked towards the cave entrance.

Jiu's hiding place was not far from the two ladies surnamed Xu, on their right side.

About five meters to his right, Tan Tai Hong poked her little head out from above the stone and looked curiously at Tian Lin who was officially preparing to take action.

Tianlin stood one step away from the cave entrance. He turned around and pressed his hand down towards the hiding place of the action team members, signaling them to lower their heads.

Everyone who was curious about what Tianlin was going to do just now now retracted their heads obediently, fearing that they would be accidentally injured by the flying debris.

Except for Xu Yiyu who leaned out a little, everyone else hid obediently behind their cover.

Tianlin moved his wrist symbolically, casually glanced up at the top of the door-sealing stone, and had already made his own judgment on the strength and angle of the attack.

A stone of this size and weight is actually nothing to him.

The most important thing for him was not to damage the bodies buried by the rocks when he attacked.

Without hesitation, he identified the weakest point of the stone sealing the door, changed his palm into fingers, and used the index and middle fingers of his right hand to make sword-like shapes, and poked the weak point accurately.

boom!

After a loud bang, the rocks seemed to be blown up by some powerful explosives and were directly blown away by Tianlin's seemingly casual finger.

The people hiding behind the bunker were startled by the sudden loud noise, and many of them subconsciously covered their ears.

Xu Yiyu frowned, and while retracting his body in time, he looked in a certain direction in confusion.

The alarm bells in my mind suddenly started ringing wildly in the next moment.

"not good!"

She didn't have time to think, and picked up a piece of gravel at hand as quickly as possible and threw it in the direction of Tan Tai Hong without any hesitation.

Just now, at the moment when the door-sealing stone was broken by Tianlin, someone in the distance must have taken the opportunity to pull the trigger of a sniper rifle!

The aim is in the direction of Tan Tai Hong!

Xu Yiyu's reaction was very quick. She watched the piece of gravel she threw fly accurately towards the sniper bullet.

——Finally, after it slightly grazed the edge of the bullet, it was instantly bounced off.

Before Tan Taihong could react to what was happening, she felt a sudden pain in the left side of her waist, and the force of the bullet knocked her against the boulder in front of her.

"Do not!!!"

Xu Yiyu watched with bloodshot eyes as Honghong's small body hit the hard stone surface. He didn't care about the flying stones that were still attacking indiscriminately in the air. He shouted and ran to Tan Tai Hong as fast as he could.

Lin Yi, who was on Tan Tai Hong's right, turned his head when he heard Xu Yi Yu's voice. The first thing he saw was a large area of ​​scarlet on Tan Tai Hong's left abdomen.

——And the small body, clinging to the rough stone surface, slowly slid to the ground at his feet.
