Chapter 237 Underground Ruins (6)

Relying on others is worse than relying on oneself. After Xiao Zuoju came up with an unreliable idea, I stopped counting on them. Standing in front of the stone gate, I began to think about countermeasures.This place doesn't look like the owner's, because there are doors but no windows, and there is no place for ventilation. Xu Kaiyi is now locked inside, and he doesn't know what the situation is.

Just when I wanted to think hard, but couldn't think of any good solution, while listening to the bottom of the inverted pyramid, there was a muffled whistle.

This sound startled me, you know, there is no one else here, could it be Xu Kaiyi who blew the whistle?But Xu Kaiyi is clearly within the stone gate beside us...

and many more!

I suddenly thought of a possibility: Are these rooms connected from top to bottom?Otherwise, how could the sound of the whistle come up from below?The more I thought about it, the more likely it was, and I immediately greeted everyone: "It's useless to delay here. Everyone heard the whistle just now. Let's go down and have a look. I suspect that these rooms may be figured out."

Everyone was meaningless, turned on the searchlights, looked for the stone stairs connecting up and down, and continued to walk down.

We went down a total of three platforms. Except for the shortened side length, there was no change in shape.

"I don't know how deep this pyramid is." Little Chrysanthemum turned on the powerful searchlight, and the straight and strong light penetrated the darkness below, but even so, it was still impossible to see the bottom.

The whistle has been sounding without stopping at all, as if deliberately guiding us down.This reminded me of the scene where the white-haired old thief imitated Jin Le and seduced me in Huangquan Village, which made me a little vigilant for a while.

Soon, we descended more than ten flat floors, equivalent to the height of a ten-story building, and the sound of the whistle was very close to us at this time.

"It's there!" Jin Le snorted, and turned the light to the side, only to hear the sound coming from one of the stone gates.

However, this stone door is open at the moment.

This made me feel for a moment that everything was more like a trap.

Could it be that there is something like the white-haired old thief here?Xiao Zuoju ran over in a few steps, and was about to run into the door, but I immediately stopped her: "It's not right, don't go in."

Little Chrysanthemum looked at me, I pulled out the gun from my waist, and gestured to the crowd to signal them to be vigilant.

When they reached the door, the strong light from the searchlight shone through the open stone door.

The whistle was still ringing, and the sound echoed in the room, but the specific direction could not be discerned.

I saw that the area behind the stone gate was also paved with stone piers, it was empty and there was nothing.The room is not wide, but it is very long. As I speculated before, the rooms between the platforms are connected. When the light is turned to the right, a square hole appears on the ground, which is obviously a direction. Passages such as stairs.

"Xu Kaiyi!" I yelled, but no one answered me, instead the signal whistle kept ringing.

At this time, Jin Le and I thought of going together, he said; "It's a bit like the trap of the old white-haired thief."

Xiao Zouju didn't know what the white-haired old thief was, but she and Doctor No. 2 understood the meaning of the trap. Hearing this, Xiao Zouju said, "You said there is a trap in here?"

I said; "We're just speculating."

Xiao Zuoju said: "Then what should we do now?"

I said, "Regardless of what the whistle sound is, since the inside of the platform is connected up and down, there must be stairs going up, so we can go to the first floor."

Jin Le said: "Xu Kaiyi must not be still in the same place, we should first follow the whistle to look for it, maybe we are just being careless." I nodded, and immediately walked ahead and entered the stone gate.

The narrow and long special shape in the room makes people feel very weird, as if walking into an alley. The sound also becomes extremely unstable in such an environment. The whistle seems to be on the left for a while, and it seems to be on the right for a while. For a while it seemed to be coming from the upper floor, and for a while it seemed to be coming from the lower floor.

At the moment, we take the position we came in as the boundary, Xiao Zuoju and I look to the left, and the doctor and Doctor No. 2 look to the right.

Neither of us found anything when we walked all the way to the end.

At the end it was just a stone wall.

I said, "Let's go and see if the doctors have gained anything."

Xiao Zuoju walked back with me and said, "I'm really not used to you suddenly becoming serious."

I said: "Xu Kaiyi is my elder brother, can I not be serious?"

When I passed the entrance of the underground stairs leading down, I suddenly smelled a smell on the tip of my nose.

Because this place has been buried underground all year round, and the only ventilation opening is very small, the air is filled with a stale and damp smell.But at this moment, when I passed this staircase, I seemed to smell a very fresh smell.

This fresh smell is not so strong in the damp and stale breath, so I wondered if I smelled it wrong, so I pointed to the stairs and asked Little Chrysanthemum: "Do you smell anything down there?" Smell?"

Little Chrysanthemum sniffled, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Fruit, it smells like fresh fruit."

I said: "I think you want to eat fruit. How can there be fresh fruit here? It may be something else." I turned on the light curiously, because the stairs are slanted, so people are at the top of the stairs , If you don't go down, you can't see anything.

While shaking the flashlight, Jin Le and the other two also came, saying that the other side was also empty.

However, at this moment, the whistle was still ringing.

As soon as I squatted down to the stairs, I felt that the sound of the whistle seemed to be coming from below.

But Jin Le went on to say: "There is an upward staircase on our side. I stood there and listened, and felt that the whistle seemed to come from above, and people might be on it."

I signaled him to stand in my place: "Come here and listen." Jin Le followed him, and immediately showed surprise on his face; "Now the sound seems to be coming from below again."

Xiao Zuoju said: "The design of this place is very strange. Anyway, we are here, why not go down and have a look first."
