Chapter 177: Underground Secret Passage (2 smaller chapters)
Walter first discovered an anomaly under the ancient chariot, and then all four people crouched down and began to dig up the soil on the ground with their hands.
The soil on the ground was very soft, so it didn't take much effort. The four of them encountered something like an iron plate. After increasing their strength, the eight hands dug down quickly.
Finally, after the soil on it was removed, an iron plate with double doors was revealed, each with a deputy. Fortunately, there is no key on it, otherwise it would really be impossible to open.
Wang Xuanyuan and Walter each held an armrest on the left and right, and carefully pulled upwards to avoid making any noise.
God bless me, I didn't make too much noise during this process. It was impossible not to make a sound, but there was no sound that could attract outside attention.
When the iron plate was pulled away, a dark hole was revealed, and cement steps sloping downward could be seen faintly. A rotten smell came from inside, and it was conservatively estimated that it had not been opened for two hundred years.
The four people looked at each other, all with surprise in their eyes.
Mrs. Melanie found a few small dry-cell flashlights from the house and gave each of them one. Then the four of them went down the steps into the secret passage. Wang Xuanyuan and Walter laboriously closed the iron door again from the inside. Then I found a large ancient bronze lock hanging on an iron ring on the inside.
After taking off the big bronze lock, I found that although it had withstood the test of time, it could still turn the parts on it, but there was no key next to it. It seemed that this was a one-time thing and could only be used now. Put the two pieces of iron together. The board is locked.
No matter what, just stay safe for a while. Wang Xuanyuan locked the big bronze lock in his hand on the big iron plate.
The four people came down along the steps. It was a circular passage. It looked like it was dug out manually with a shovel and a chisel. The passage was surrounded by shovel marks, which were densely packed and had a three-dimensional feel.
Wang Xuanyuan reached out and touched the four walls of the passage. It was a very hard clay. Judging from the inclination and length of the steps, it should be six or seven meters deep underground.
At that time, it was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to complete such a large project, how many people would have to be mobilized, or how many years a family would have to work.
There was a slight daze in the secret passage. In this dark underground passage, it is normal for it to be cooler.
Mrs. Melanie introduced: "My husband told me that this place seemed to have been secretly built during the civil war. There is also a place in it to store a lot of war preparation materials, such as grain, white water, candles, etc., just to prevent the Southern War at that time. The army came here, but in the end none of it was used. I have never come down this secret tunnel. If it weren't for the emergency today, I probably wouldn't have thought of it."
The four people were talking as they walked, and the echo echoed here. Wang Xuanyuan was very surprised, where would those war preparation materials be stored?
The secret passage seemed to be seamless, and there were no traces of other caves dug around. After walking forward for about two hundred meters, Wang Xuanyuan felt that the secret passage had turned slightly, but there were still no traces on either side. Traces of a cave were found.
If it is really an air-raid shelter, it cannot be such a simple secret passage. There must be other caves used for resting, storing supplies, living, etc.
The ground inside the secret passage was very clean, without any snakes, insects, rats, or ants. As he walked further, Wang Xuanyuan felt that he had turned a corner, and a similar sloping step appeared not far ahead. It seemed that the secret passage had come to an end. .
Walter stopped at the front and looked up at the steps. There were also two very ancient iron plates on the top. After waiting for all the people behind him to arrive, Wang Xuanyuan said he would go up first. In that case, if there were One or more of Scarlett, Michelle or Jessica would not scare them.
Walter gave up his position, and Wang Xuanyuan slowly walked up the steps, stood on the highest step, used all his strength to push up the two iron plates, and then heard a sound outside: " Who? Who's there?"
