I asked him what was going on, and he pulled me to the cut-off tomb passage and said: "To put it bluntly, it is an illegal construction.
This tomb was originally dug along the river bed.
If the tomb passage is forcibly expanded now, it will 100% cause the load-bearing rock to break. .
If it’s serious, the river water may flow in.
This is no joke.
Please advise Mr.
Wang.”
"Old Wang, this is what's wrong with you.
Experts say it's dangerous, but you still want to continue digging.
Why did you come to him in the first place?"
"Shut up, I don't need you to teach me a lesson."
After saying that, he glanced at the engineer and threatened in a deep voice, "No matter what the danger is, I can't take a step back now.
Get out of the way, if you say one more thing, I will your life."
The engineer was also stubborn and shouted with red eyes: "You will die anyway if you dig in.
It is better for you to kill me now than to bury you with so many people.
You are already crazy."
As soon as he shouted, everyone else immediately turned to look over.
Wang Puyuan looked murderous and his fingers clenched in his fist.
When I saw something bad, I quickly stood between the two of them.
I stared closely at his fist, wary of the old man's sudden outburst.
The already crowded tomb was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and paid close attention to the development of the situation.
"Qingzheng left a mark and they have entered the main tomb chamber."
Wang Puyuan sighed, "Your two friends are with him."
His words almost choked me to death.
"When did it happen?
Why didn't you tell me who else besides them was the Japanese?"
I said, Wang Puyuan was so anxious that he was so anxious that he insisted that the Japanese had found the main tomb.
It turned out that the little bastard had left a mark for him.
This old bastard is too calm.
It seems that if the road had not been blocked, he would not have told me about this matter.
"You can imagine their current situation.
This is the only way now.
I have to go."
Wang Puyuan was eager to protect his grandson.
He knew that the other party was powerful, so he tried his best to clear the tomb passage to the main tomb chamber to save people.
I asked the engineer: "How long will it take to pass through the tomb passage without damaging the stone?"
"This is a way.
But I advise you not to have too much hope.
Granite is stronger than you think, and there is not enough space here.
In practice," "Stop talking nonsense, just tell me how long it will take."
At this moment, I fully understood Wang Puyuan's anxious mood, and felt that the engineer in front of me was talking nonsense.
Seeing that we were both anxious, he had no choice but to squat down again to assess.
"With the tools we have at hand, we can penetrate it in about half an hour, but the hole cannot be too big.
As you can see, the geology above our heads is special.

The upper soil and sand structure is too soft, and the rock layer below has cracked.
It all depends on this The big rock is under pressure.
Now I am digging through the ground, facing two hard bones: rock and foundation.
One thing I must emphasize is that if the rock collapses during the drilling process, no one here will get out alive. " Hearing that there was still a glimmer of hope, Wang Puyuan and I almost said in unison: "Stop talking nonsense and take action."
In order to avoid unnecessary losses, Wang Puyuan asked his men to retreat one hundred meters, but I insisted on staying to help.
He was not polite either, probably knowing that he alone could not handle the situation in front of him.
It’s not like I didn’t have some hard time when I was an engineer, but at that time we didn’t have so many restrictions.
If we could change the route, we would still change the route.
If it didn’t work, we would use explosives.
It’s not like now, this doesn’t work, that doesn’t work, and we have to face the situation at any time. danger of landslides.
The three of us first divided the bottom of the rock according to the agreed plan.
The excavation project was more difficult than I imagined.
Sand and soil kept leaking down through the gaps above our heads.
After a while, my whole body was covered with soil.
"Boss Wang, the desertification here is worse than expected.
I think we can still..."
Wang Puyuan focused solely on saving people and couldn't listen to other people's advice.
I saw that most of the bottom of the stone had been cleared away, and Wu was unwilling to stop.
"Master, why don't you retreat first."
I glanced at the tomb passage behind me and said to the engineer, "Bring everyone up.
The old man can't control so much now.
If he wants to find someone to settle the score afterwards, I will Come and carry it.”
"When is it your turn to speak?"
Wang Puyuan thrust the shovel into the ground and said angrily, "No one is allowed to leave."
When everyone saw that the old man was angry, they came over from behind tremblingly.
I said: "Stop causing trouble and take the engineer away.
This place will collapse soon.
If you think money is more valuable than life, you can stay with this dead old man and wait to be buried alive.
At this time, we are uploading There was the sound of the rock formations breaking, and a large amount of sand began to slope downwards along the gaps between the stones.
I hurriedly pushed the engineer out.
When the others saw that the situation was not good, they didn't care about Wang Puyuan's safety, and they rushed towards me.
Retreat at the exit.
I guess the old man is ready to kill me at this time.
Unfortunately, we are now racing against time.
We must cross the barrier in front of us before the rock formation breaks, otherwise we will be greeted by endless darkness.
"Shopkeeper Hu, let me help you."
I looked back and saw that it was Xu San.
He had a white coat on his head and crawled towards us with difficulty.
I said, "Why don't you run away when you have such a good opportunity when you come back?"
He rolled in three steps, shook the dirt from his head and said, "I'm not from the same group as them.
Why don't you run, it would be safer to follow you."
Although Xu San, with his round head and big ears, looks quite stupid, he actually has a delicate heart and can calmly analyze the situation in times of crisis.
Wang Puyuan's group of people were originally desperadoes, and they flew away when the disaster came.
Xu San has never interacted with them.
At this moment of life and death, it is even more impossible for them to take Xu San's safety into consideration.

If they rashly follow the large army to evacuate this place, they may be left behind halfway and end up in the ancient tomb.
Instead of losing his life in vain, it is better to take the risk and go with us.
"Dig" I handed the shovel in my hand to Xu San, then stood up and pressed my coat against the gap above my head, intending to delay as much time as possible, reduce the flow of sediment, and create usable space for them.
Because I was so close, I could clearly see the expanding cracks between the rock layers extending to the end of the tomb passage.
At this time, I suddenly felt a cool feeling on my face.
After reaching out and touching it, I discovered that the fallen sand contained moisture.
This is a sign that the river is about to overflow
I lowered my head and shouted: "The water is about to pour in, don't stop, keep digging, what matters now is speed."
I heard two loud clicks, and the rock wall not far away finally couldn't resist after a long period of squeezing.
Under the pressure of the outside world, it collapsed suddenly, and a huge gap suddenly appeared in front of us.
At the same time, Wang Puyuan finally dug out a glimmer of hope at the bottom of the "stumbling block".
Xu San shouted to me excitedly: "It's dug out, let's go quickly."
Xu San cried with joy, holding the medicine box and ducking into the crack.
The rock wall above our heads kept pouring down, and the turbid and powerful river water swept over us in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that the tomb passage was about to collapse, I couldn't care less about the small world above my head.
I took back my clothes and without saying a word, I dragged Wang Puyuan and went underground.
The temporary dug passage was full of gravel and gravel, but I didn't dare to stop even a step, pushing the old man desperately to crawl in this narrow cave.
The Youshui roaring behind me was freezing cold, and my lower body was completely immersed in the muddy water.
The surroundings were pitch black, and I couldn't even see the road clearly.
It felt like I was buried alive.
"Boss Hu, this way, this way" Xu San's voice kept echoing in front of him.
It seemed that he had successfully climbed out of the cave and reached the tomb passage on the opposite side.
Although Wang Puyuan is very young, his physical fitness is much better than that of Professor Li.
He is agile and moves extremely fast.
There were several times that I almost couldn't keep up with his pace.
The water level in the cave rose rapidly and gradually covered my shoulders.
The resistance of the water and the narrow passage made it extremely difficult to move forward.
I choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and my entire nasal cavity was sore and painful.
Not to mention how uncomfortable it was, I simply held my breath, relaxed my hands and feet, and swam forward.
Fortunately, the distance to the cave was limited.
Following a sudden steep slope, I jumped up and emerged from the water.
Wang Puyuan had been waiting for me on the shore early, wiped his face, and stretched out his hand to pull me up.
My mouth was full of mud and water, and I vomited for a while before I felt a little better.
Wang Puyuan said: "There is no time to rest, so hurry up and leave.
This stone will not hold up for long, and the river will soon surge here."
Xu San panicked: "Then this side will also be flooded, what should we do?"
I asked Wang Puyuan how long it would take to reach the tomb of the main tomb.
He shook his head: "The map recorded in the undersea tomb is only half of it.
It was broken before reaching the main tomb.
I don't know why.
The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge.
Anyway, leave here first."
The second half of the tomb passage is still a temporary passage dug by the Qing soldiers.
Although the whole road is rugged, it is better than being trapped underwater just now.
"Let's find a way to dry our clothes first.

There's water dripping all the way and it's inconvenient to move."
After walking for a while, Xu San turned back to ask for our opinions with a grimace.
The three of us glanced at each other.
This drowned rat look was indeed inappropriate.
"This place has no ventilation and no light.
The river water will rush in at any time.
Just bear with it.
At least find a place where you can light a fire."
After I finished speaking, I heard a gurgling sound of boiling water coming from behind me.
Voice.
Wang Puyuan's face changed greatly and he shouted: "I can't stand it any longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, the boulder broke apart, and the rolling Youshui flooded the sky with huge waves, and the broken stones violently impacted the surrounding areas. rock wall.
I didn't run a few steps before I was swept into the cold river water.
On the other side, Xu San and Wang Puyuan also felt uncomfortable.
They were covered by huge waves one after another and disappeared from my sight.
I drank a lot of muddy water, and finally raised my head to take a breath.
In an instant, I was knocked back again by the water pressure, and I couldn't control my balance at all.
The most terrifying thing is the gravel hidden in the torrent.
At this speed, if you hit any of it, you will be shattered to pieces.
The river water stirred up with sediment rushed into my mouth and nose from time to time.
I felt that if this continued, I would be strangled to death before I drowned.
The only good thing is that this illegal tomb passage is only about two meters high and is not sealed.
It is more difficult to drown people.
What you need to watch out for now is unintentional collisions.
Whether it is gravel hidden in the water or a hard and sharp rock wall, the slightest carelessness will bring disaster.
I tried to stand up in the water, but as soon as one foot touched the ground, the waves behind me came up and knocked me down again.
I took advantage of the buoyancy in the water, took a breath, and tried my best to hold on to the bump above my head.
The uneven stone wall finally got a chance to breathe.
I lowered my head to look for Wang Puyuan and Xu San, and found that the river had long dispersed the two of them.
Apart from the occasional rolling sand, no one could be found on the turbid water.
I shouted several times but no one answered.
Then another wave came up and I was once again swept into the rushing river.
I struggled like this all the way, constantly wandering between life and death.
My physical strength and will were slowly exhausted, and I wished I would never touch water again in this life.
I don’t know how long I was tossed about, but by the time I reacted, the speed of the water had slowed down significantly.
I hurriedly took the opportunity to reach out and look for something to anchor myself to.
There was water everywhere, and my vision was blurry.
I could only stretch out my arms and dance wildly, hoping to catch something.
I fumbled for a long time and finally grabbed something that felt like a rope.
I gritted my teeth and used that force to pull myself up from the water.
The moment I emerged from the water, my whole body suddenly became extremely relaxed, and I leaned against the wall to catch my breath for a long time.
There were no lights around, and my flashlight had been washed away somewhere.
I felt along the wall for a while.
The wall here was much smoother than before.
The water had just reached the top of my thighs.

The road under my feet was relatively flat.
It seemed that I had been washed out of the tomb passage by the river and arrived at a new place.
I turned around and shouted a few times, but there were echoes one after another, which showed that this place was not small.
I picked up my water-soaked backpack and found a candle and a lighter in the dark.
With the mentality of giving it a try, I polished the lighter and lit the candle.
The candle first smoked for a while, and then a huge flame burst out with a "boom".
I leaned so close that my eyebrows were almost burned off.
Thanks to Master Yu, this candle is not only windproof, but also waterproof.
When it gets wet, it actually burns more intensely than before.
It seems that we need to do a good study of what materials he used after returning home.
I held up the candle and looked around, and I was shocked
