Chapter 13 Hair

The pirate cave was not far from the ship. I saw a big crater blasted out on the bottom of the sea. The hole was at the bottom of the pit. I thought it was indeed Uncle San's trick. We searched around the cave and found no signs of collapse. , it seems that Uncle San’s technology has not deteriorated.

I also saw a few stone anchors, which were the same as what Third Uncle described, but I couldn’t be sure they were the ones Third Uncle mentioned.

The traces of the underground palace planned by the third uncle are still there. Zhang Tu and I both took note of it carefully. Judging from the location of the robbery hole, it should be dug into the ear room, and the bricks in that place should be relatively thin.

We searched for about 5 minutes, but there seemed to be no need to search any further. The fat man waved his hand to me, asking if I should go in now. Aning looked at the diving watch and nodded.

Our equipment now is no better than it was 20 years ago, and we all travel lightly. We finally checked the equipment and the agreed code words at the entrance of the cave to make sure everything was fine. Only then did the fat man calm down, and the first cat went in. The few of us Turn on the search light and follow, diving five or six meters in all at once.

This bandit cave is very irregular, sometimes wide and sometimes narrow. As I swam, I looked at the wall of the cave. The more I looked at it, the stranger it became. Why didn’t it look like it was dug by someone? If it was the third uncle who dug the hole, he must have dug it with one shovel after another. It was very neat, but now the marks here and there are messy, and the holes are dug, and they look like holes made by animals.

We swam more than 20 meters with difficulty, and the light from the entrance of the cave could no longer shine. At this time, the direction of the cave suddenly changed, and he dug vertically. I couldn't help but feel a little strange. Since the grave has not been dug yet, why change the direction?

Since I couldn't speak and I couldn't express my questions, we took a rest at the vertical hole. The fat man made a careful gesture to us, and then swam down first. I watched his light keep going down and down until it turned into a small dot. I couldn't help but be stunned, wondering why it was so deep.

At this time, he waved the search light below to indicate that it was safe below. We immediately dived one after another. I looked at the diving watch and saw that we were already more than ten meters deep. I had never dived so deep before and I didn’t know if my body could hold on.

A large space had been dug out below. We immediately saw the tomb wall of the ancient tomb. There was a big hole in it. I was even more confused when I saw it. The hole was so irregular that it didn't look like an ordinary tomb. They were carefully removed piece by piece, and a few bricks were actually cracked. The fat man looked at me, and I looked at him. The two of them blew a few bubbles together. He pointed at the broken bricks and made a monkey gesture. I knew he wanted to say: This hole may be What the sea monkey dug was not a robber hole.

I nodded in agreement and pointed to the underwater gun on his back. He took it off, pulled the safety cover, and swam into the cave.

This is my second time to enter the ancient tomb. Although I am a little excited, I still feel uncomfortable when I think of the last experience. Especially underwater, the resistance of my hands and feet is great. If I encounter danger, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it like on land. Escape just as fast as above.

The tomb passage was much bigger than I thought. I turned up the brightness of the search light, turned on the waterproof flashlight in my hand, and followed the fat man. Our lights were very bright, and they shone far away in one go. The entire curtain road lit up. I saw that on the wall of the tomb, there were indeed the reliefs of human faces that my third uncle mentioned. Not only that, but the foreheads of these human faces were also carved with some strange animals, which were very delicately carved. I watched as I swam, and the more I looked, the weirder I felt. Most of these animals were tomb beasts, but none of them had eyes carved on them, which looked a bit weird.

At this time, I suddenly saw a human face with what looked like three bronze fish with snake-eyebrows carved on its forehead. I couldn't help but feel nervous. I quickly pulled the fat man to stop, and then went to study the relief.

The fat man was hurriedly walking inside. He was very impatient and didn't know what I found. He turned around and looked at it for a few times. He didn't see anything, so he waved anxiously.

I asked him to wait, and leaned over to take a closer look. I saw three snake-eyebrow copper fish connected end to end, forming a ring shape. Each one had a different shape. I could tell that two of them were in my bag. There is also one with three eyes, which I have never seen before, so I don’t know what this is a hint for. Under the fish, the face was different from the others. It was a face with obvious female characteristics, but because there were many things attached to it, the face looked a bit disfigured. Not very comfortable.

I still wanted to study it carefully. At this time, Aning from behind also urged me. I had no choice but to continue swimming forward. Fortunately, the carvings would appear again at intervals, and I could take a few more glances. It seemed Looking at it, I didn't find anything more, but I just vaguely felt that something was wrong.

After looking at it, I waited until I counted the fifth time the face relief appeared, and then I discovered the problem. I remembered that the face on the first stone slab had closed eyes, and on the second stone slab, There seems to be a tendency to open the eyes, and by the third and fourth stone slabs, the eyes are getting wider and wider, and now on the fifth stone slab, they are almost fully open.

I felt a little bad, so I grabbed the fat man and told him not to go forward. Then I took out the underwater drawing board and wrote on it: "The eyes on the face on the tomb wall are gradually opening. I'm afraid there's something wrong." !" After writing, he pointed at the wall.

The fat man touched the face, shook his head, and wrote: "I didn't pay attention. They are just some stone reliefs. There must be a whole stone inside. You think too much."

I shook my head firmly and asked him to pick up the gun. Seeing my serious expression, he had no choice but to do so. After a while, I saw the same relief sculpture appearing in front of me. The fat man was a little scared by what I said and stopped. I illuminated it with a light first. The eyes of the stone face had been fully opened, and the whole face was facing forward, and the eyes were looking straight forward, looking a little dull. The fat man looked at it again and again, but there was no change, so he plucked up the courage to walk over, touched it, and then He gave me a no problem gesture.

I swam over and took a look. Sure enough, it was still a solid stone. There was nothing special about it. I inserted my fingers into its eyes, but there was no response. I couldn't help but shake my head mockingly. It seemed like this was just a prank by the designer of the tomb. It's a gimmick, used to scare possible tomb robbers, or it has some special meaning. I actually scared myself here. It's really shameless. The fat man patted me and told me not to think so much and to hurry up.

We continued to swim forward, and I remembered that my third uncle told me that he was sucked into the spring after hitting a mechanism, but these tomb walls were all the same, how could he be found? The one that hit that time?

My mind was spinning so fast that there was no way to keep swimming forward like this. I didn’t know where this tomb passage led to. It might be another loop. If I got lost in it, I would be doomed. I thought in my mind that my third uncle could see it at a glance. When you reach the last person, you should be in a very long corridor. We have made several turns just now, and there are only two such corridors. In this way, it is not very difficult to find, but it will take some time.

At this time, the fat man in front stopped. I couldn't stop and bumped into his butt. I thought something was going on in front of me, so I rushed over to take a look. It turned out that the tomb passage ended, and there was a stone in front of it. Ban Dang stopped on his way.

This stone slab was bare, with no words or reliefs on it. I searched for a long time and couldn't find any mechanism. I couldn't help scratching my head. Then Aning wrote and asked me: "How can it be a dead end?"

I wrote back: "There is a clever stone mechanism nearby. Let's look for it and see if there is any loose tomb wall."

They all nodded, and the fat man began to knock here and there, carefully examining the human face reliefs. I mentally recalled all the clues mentioned in the notes, and even used a dagger to cut through every gap on the side, but there was no progress. The stone slab was still blocked there, motionless.

I couldn't help but feel a little depressed. I turned around to see how the fat man was doing, and found that the fat man was in a daze. I patted him and wrote, "Have you discovered anything?"

He looked at me with a strange expression and asked me in writing: "Do sea monkeys have hair?"

I didn't know what he meant by suddenly asking this, and I couldn't help laughing. I really didn't pay attention to whether the sea monkey had hair or not. In my memory, it seemed that the entire head was bare and covered with scales.

I told him truthfully and asked him why he was asking. He pointed to the crack in the wall. I followed his finger and immediately saw that there was a strand of black hair floating out of the gap between the stone slab and the tomb passage.

I was stunned. How could this be possible? Is there someone leaning on the other side of the stone slab?

The fat man was brave and wanted to reach out and pull it. Unexpectedly, the hair suddenly shrank and was retracted into the gap. The fat man glanced at me and wrote: "There is a ghost behind the stone slab."
