Chapter 296 Under the Stone Statue
Everyone worked together to clean up the surroundings of the stone statue, and only then could they see the whole picture clearly.
The age is too long, and the color of the moss has penetrated into the stone, becoming a protective color that almost blends with the surrounding environment.The surface of the stone statue is damaged in many places, and it is not complete.
The problem is that apart from the stone statues, there are only rocks and weeds here.
"The treasure can't be this stone statue, right? It's nothing special, it's not worth much!" Xia Yong observed closely, but couldn't see anything special about the stone statue.
"The treasure should not be it, everyone look around, maybe there is a clue!" Qin Shou ordered.
A group of people searched carefully near the stone statue, but found nothing.
"There's nothing here!" Lei He reported.
"In addition to stones, there are weeds." Ding Dianjun's team didn't find it either.
Others reported one after another, but could not find any clues related to the treasure.
Yu Shixiu's eyes fell on the stone statue, and after careful consideration, he said, "Perhaps, the clue is on this stone statue?"
"I've looked at it several times just now, and there's nothing on it except moss!" Lei He replied.
Yu Shixiu stretched out his hand to touch the stone statue. Just now, everyone just looked around the stone statue with their eyes, and no one started.
When he touched the stone statue's right arm raised in mid-air, he found that the tactile sensation was different from other places. He stretched out his hand to uncover the moss on the elbow, and his eyes lit up. elbow.
Quickly remove the moss on the left elbow of the stone statue, but the other side is closely matched, completely different from the right hand.
"I think the clue is here!" He said excitedly, and tried to move the arm of the stone statue, but found that it didn't move at all.
Qin Shou and others also gathered around, seeing this situation, Lei He stepped forward quickly: "I'll come!"
Yu Shixiu took a step back, and Lei He grabbed the stone statue's arm with both hands and pulled it back with all his strength, even with all his strength, the stone statue's arm moved a little, not much.
Lei He tried his best to break it again and again, but failed.
"Together!" Ding Dianjun greeted the strongest soldiers and went up to help Lei He.
A group of people broke down vigorously, and a large amount of stone chips and rust-like things fell from the gap in the right arm of the stone statue. They were broken off by brute force, and changed from a raised hand to a lowered posture.
After successfully shaking his arm, the ground suddenly shook, and the stone statue trembled violently, scaring Lei He, Ding Dianjun and others to back away immediately.
Qin Shou and the others were also taken aback, and kept on alert, watching with their own eyes that the stone statue slowly descended amidst the vibrations, and actually sank into the ground until it disappeared, leaving them with a square hole.
When the vibration disappeared, everyone approached the pothole and looked inside. They found that the bottom was bottomless, and the bottom was pitch black. They didn't know what was going on at the bottom.
"It seems that the secret is below!" Qian Zhiqiang said, "I don't know if it's dangerous or not."
"Try it and you'll know?" Lei He moved a big rock from the side and threw it into the pothole.
The people next to him didn't react, so naturally they couldn't stop it.
The stone fell into the pothole, and it took a long time to hear a slight sound.
"Just throwing stones down like this, what if you smash something?" Gan Zhiqiang accused Lei He, "Perhaps there are legendary treasures in King Danyang's treasure chest!"
"The stone statue can sink all the time, so the treasure shouldn't be placed in such an obvious place?" Lei He didn't care, "Listen to the sound, this hole is very deep, how do you get down?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, even if the rope was not so long, it could not be extended to the bottom of the pit at all.The only possibility is that Qin Shou, the chosen one, uses his ability.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Qin Shou immediately stepped forward: "The key is up to me! This pothole is only suitable for one person to enter, and I don't know what's going on below. The existing tools can't be used. The fastest and most convenient way is to go all the way. Build a ladder. In this way, you wait here, and I will go down to find out!"
"Why don't you build a ladder and I'll go down?" Ding Dianjun said, "I don't know what's under the pothole, if there's a trap..."
"That's why it's safer for me to go down!" Qin Shou said, "There are really traps, you will definitely die if you go down, I can destroy them with special abilities, everyone back away!"
Everyone obeyed the order and retreated one after another.
"Be careful!" Luo Yuxi said worriedly, and the other women also asked him to be careful.
Qin Shou took out the wooden ladder from the virtual backpack and kept it as a spare to deal with various situations, placed four or five down along the pothole, then climbed the wooden ladder into the pothole, and slowly descended.When you reach the fifth square, continue to place the wooden ladder down, and climb down the ladder like this.
When the light became dim and it was almost impossible to see clearly, I opened the virtual backpack and found a miner's hat strap, turned on the light and continued to go down.
The people outside gathered around the pothole and looked at Qin Shou worriedly, but they didn't dare to get too close. It would be bad if they stumbled and fell. If it hit Qin Shou and both of them might fall to their deaths, it would be even worse!
Qin Shou took the wooden ladder and slowly descended, and found that the pothole was really deep, like a bottomless pit, which made people doubt whether there was an end.
It was not until 134 wooden ladders were used that the stone statue sunk to the bottom was discovered. It was integrated with the soil. Looking back, it turned out to be a square basement of at least 200 square meters.
Looking carefully at the basement with the light, there is a stone door directly opposite, the walls on both sides are hollowed out, and there are three stone sculptures of different animals standing inside.
The stone gate is unpretentious, but there are three copper locks on the front.
Seeing the copper lock, Qin Shou reacted, and silently took out the bronze key placed in the virtual backpack.
I thought that these three keys were used to point out the treasure, but now it seems that they are still needed to open the door of the treasure room!
Qin Shou didn't dare to rush forward, and bent down to pick up some small stones. Although there were some in his backpack, the big stones thrown by Lei He were completely broken, so there was no need to waste them.
Throwing a few pieces forward did not respond, and then slowly moved forward.
All the way to Shimen, there is no mechanism.
Looking closely, although the dust along the way is thick, the three bronze locks are as new as the keys.
Find the key to the right lock, and open them one after another. The stone door vibrates violently, dust is flying, and it slowly opens to both sides.
Qin Shou took out his mask and put it on to avoid inhaling dust.
When the stone gate was opened, it was discovered through the gap that there was a larger space inside, with more stone gates.
"A labyrinth?" He was confused by this situation. The problem is that there are only three bronze keys, so there are too many doors inside?I hope these doors don't need a key, but if it doesn't work, I have to use an iron pick to dig them.
When the stone door was fully opened, Qin Shou entered it cautiously. The light from the miner's hat illuminated it left and right, and found that the space was fan-shaped, which was different from the square behind it.
On the fan-shaped semicircular wall directly opposite, five stone gates are neatly arranged.In the middle of the room, the ground is uneven, and there are countless huge square stone piers, with gaps in the middle, just like enlarged plum blossom piles.
