Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Professor Liu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he held it back.

"It's not time to give up yet." Lin Ran saw the look of despair on Professor Liu's face.

"There is a passage over there. Maybe we can get out from there." Wang Jinpeng caught a glimpse of a hole on the side of the mountain road at the critical moment.

In fact, he wasn't sure if it was a passage, maybe it was just an ordinary cave.

But at this time, all information must be shared to have a chance to escape.

After hearing Wang Jinpeng's words, Lin Ran immediately turned around.

When he saw the hole, he shouted: "Let's go there quickly!"

Wang Jinpeng was also worried that he had seen the wrong thing. If everyone was wiped out because he had seen the wrong cave, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

But the God of Luck still favors the optimistic. The entrance to the cave is really a secret passage.

Everyone was immediately overjoyed and quickly followed Lin Ran into the cave.

As a result, just as they escaped into the cave, an irregular cylinder fell directly from above near the cave entrance, completely sealing the cave entrance.

Compared with the chaos outside, there is a calmness in the cave.

There was no vibration from the outside world inside. In front of them was a steep slope with a rugged road that continued upward.

Professor Liu walked at the back of the team, and Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning took the initiative to help him.

"Thank you." Professor Liu felt a little wet in the corners of his eyes. These native masters, whom he once despised the most, actually protected him countless times in dangerous ancient tombs.

Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning didn't think much at all, they just supported Professor Liu and tried to move forward.

The further you go, the steeper the slope becomes.

After climbing for more than ten minutes, everyone was so tired that they had to stop and rest for a while.

There were neither traps nor signs of decoration here. Lin Ran guessed that it was a burglary cave.

However, this was the first time he had seen such a deep robbery hole. Only a persevering native would be able to dig such a deep hole into an ancient tomb.

Now they are almost out of ammunition and food, their backpacks are full of bamboo slips, and they can throw away other things as they can.

But there might be a way to save Liu Jingfeng and Ke Hui in the bamboo slips. Lin Ran would never give up on them unless he had to.

"Jinpeng, you and Professor Liu rest here, while Xu Ning and I go ahead to explore the way." Lin Ran was eager to leave the underground world. If he stayed here for a moment longer, he would be in more danger.

The two of them responded and immediately split into two groups. Xu Ning and Lin Ran continued to explore.

Lin Ran originally speculated that it might be a natural cave entrance, but it happened to be dug here by Tufuzi.

After continuing to explore for a while, they found a platform in front of them.

It turned out to be a dead end.

Lin Ran held up a flashlight and looked up, and found that it was a closed space.

Then I looked around and saw nothing but strange-shaped rocks.

"Is this a darkroom?" Xu Ning asked slowly.

From various angles, this is a space where exposed objects are piled, but all the exposed objects have been moved away.

But Lin Ran didn't see any trace of anyone coming on the platform, because when they stepped on it, it actually raised dust. This is only the case in places where no one has stepped in for a long time.

When I looked at the ashes on the ground with a flashlight, I couldn't see any footprints or fingerprints. It was abnormal no matter how I looked at it.

Lin Ran shook his head, and then came to the mountain wall to check if there were any mechanisms or secret passages on it.

They look like ordinary mountain rocks, but those with mechanisms are often laid with bluestone bricks.

The only possibility is the ground of this platform.

Lin Ran squatted down and checked the ground.

Sure enough, he had noticed before that this room was different from an ordinary room, and when he saw it, he really noticed something unusual.

The platform has a certain slope, but the slope is very small, only about 15 degrees.

Because they had just come up a steep slope, these arcs were not obvious to them.

Lin Ran squatted on the ground and inspected the stones on the ground.

Sure enough, I found a bluestone brick on the ground with a height difference from its surroundings, which seemed extremely uncoordinated.

He came to the stone bricks and moved them with his hands.

Bricks are movable.

It might be a trap, or it might be a passage.

The possibility of choosing one or the other.

"Xu Ning, come and help me." Lin Ran decided to take a gamble.

If they were trapped in the cave, they would definitely die.

Xu Ning always worked neatly and neatly. When he learned that Lin Ran asked him to tilt up the stone slab, he immediately took out his short knife and inserted the blade through the gap in the stone slab. He found that the stone bricks were movable.

At first I tried to lift it up with the knife, but the thin blade obviously couldn't withstand the pressure of the stone slab.

"No, you have to call Jin Peng."

At this time, Jinpeng's precious shovel is still reliable.

By chance, Wang Jinpeng and Professor Liu had followed after taking a break, worried about Lin Ran and the others' safety.

"Who is calling me?" Wang Jinpeng felt happy.

"Don't be poor, come and help." Xu Ning pointed at the stone bricks on the ground and said.

Wang Jinpeng immediately walked over with a shovel and said coolly: "Get out of the way."

Then, he directly took the shovel in his hand and knocked it into the gap, and began to pry upward hard.

The stone slab began to move slowly, revealing a dark hole, and it was indeed empty below.

The others held their breath and stared at the hole, for fear that a snake would come out of it.

But as the stone slabs moved, the hole became larger and larger, and a decaying smell that had not been opened for a long time came from inside.

"Very good, keep prying!" Lin Ran encouraged.

"Yeah!" Wang Jinpeng gritted his teeth and tried his best.

Finally succeeded in completely raising the stone slab.

In front of them, a downward hole appeared.

I took a flashlight and looked at it. It was not too deep below, only about two meters high. You could jump directly.

Lin Ran fell down, followed closely by Wang Jinpeng, who caught Professor Liu after he came down.

There was another long corridor, and they kept walking forward in it.

After walking a few steps, a glimmer of light appeared in front of them.

At first, I thought it was because the flashlight was shining on some strange object and there was reflection.

But he rubbed his eyes again and was convinced that it was natural light.

They couldn't help but quicken their pace and came to the light.

Looking up, directly above them was a circular hole like a skylight.

The sunlight shines in from the entrance of the cave.

"Want to climb up?" Xu Ning looked a little excited.

Lin Ran slowly exhaled and looked at the sun, feeling like seeing the sun again.

"No, we are moving forward."

Looking at the growth of the trees at the entrance of the cave, it should be a cliff.

But with light, there is hope.

They enjoyed the sunshine for a while and continued along the passage.

The further you go, the smaller the cave entrance becomes.

At first they could hunch over, but by the end they had to lie on the ground to move forward.
