Before long, the hole was completely dug, and the man with the torch went in first.
Although he was a little nervous, as a subordinate, he couldn't let his boss go in first. After all, his job was to protect his boss.
In addition, he was holding the torch. If he gave the torch to someone else and let them go in first, he wouldn't feel good, so he had to force himself to go in first.
The man with the torch carefully went through the hole and entered the cavern inside. Although there were some snakes, insects, rats, and ants inside, they all moved away when they saw the torch, so the man wasn't attacked at all.
Seeing this, the man heaved a sigh of relief.
The people outside didn't follow the man in. Instead, they waited for him to come in and make sure there was no danger before coming in.
"Boss, there's no danger inside. We can come in now, but it seems that there is no exit. It's just a closed cavern," the man said after looking around.
Hearing that, Ma Shibiao didn't take action right away, but looked at Gu Ning silently. After all, it was just a closed cavern.
After what had happened several times, Ma Shibiao subconsciously regarded Gu Ning as the leader, and listened to Gu Ning's opinion on everything.
"Let's go in first and see if there are any traps around. If there's nothing inside, there's no need to build a cavern and separate it with a thick wall," said Gu Ning. "Of course, I just think it's possible, but no matter what, the hole is already dug out. If we don't go in and have a look, we'll waste our time."
Because they hadn't observed it carefully, Gu Ning wasn't sure.
Hearing that, Ma Shibiao agreed. No matter what, the hole was already dug out, so it was safer to go in and have a look.
Besides, after the tomb passage and the cavern were separated, who knew whether there was another cavern next to the cavern?
After that, they climbed into the cavern one by one.
After they entered the cavern, they began to observe the situation inside.
The cavern wasn't large, only about 10 square meters. It was surrounded by walls, and the cavern was built with bricks. There was nothing special about it.
The others couldn't tell what was going on, so they all put their hopes on Gu Ning. To be more precise, they put their hopes on the monster fox.
The monster fox didn't understand it, but it listened to Gu Ning's words and pretended to walk around the wall, as if it was observing something.
Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see if there was another cavern outside.
Sure enough, on the other side of the wall, there was a chamber. Although there was still nothing in this chamber, there was a tomb path leading to the front.
Gu Ning didn't know where the tomb led to, so she had to go in and take a look.
"There should be another cavern over there," Gu Ning said.
"Dig." Hearing that, Ma Shibiao didn't doubt it at all, and directly ordered his men to dig.
Because of Ma Shibiao's three subordinates, one was injured and one was holding a torch, so only one of them was left to dig.
Although it was a little strenuous, it wasn't very tiring.
About an hour and a half had passed since Gu Ning left Tao Lin, and Tao Lin arrived at Huafu Hills.
Before Tao Lin arrived at Huafu Hills, Xin Bei and the others had been waiting for him for a long time, but they didn't feel impatient. They were only worried that something might happen to Tao Lin on the way.
Xin Bei recognized Gu Ning's car, so he recognized it when it approached.
Since Tao Lin was able to see it, it meant that he was fine.
Tao Lin also saw three people standing outside the gate of Huafu Hills from a distance, and he recognized that they were Xin Bei and the others.
Tao Lin stopped the car in front of the gate of Huafu Hills, then got out.
"Tao Lin, are you alright?"
Even though they knew that Tao Lin was fine, Xin Bei and the others still asked him with concern.
"I'm fine. I'm just worried about my sister-in-law," Tao Lin said. He felt guilty. After all, it was because of him that Gu Ning went to the wilderness in the middle of the night. She not only saved him, but also chased after the criminal.
After all, Gu Ning was just a girl.
Even though Leng Shaoting was willing to let Gu Ning go, which meant that Gu Ning had the ability to do it, he was still worried about her.
"Don't worry. She'll be fine," Xin Bei said to comfort himself.
"What was the situation like when Gu Ning arrived?" Ai Weishun asked.
Gu Ning only told Xin Bei that Tao Lin was found and drove back, and that she was going to chase after the criminal. She didn't know the details.
"When Gu Ning arrived, I fainted in the car, and the criminal was already gone. I heard that they found an ancient tomb, so they went to rob it. Gu Ning saved me and told me to come back with the car key. She went to chase after the criminal herself. I didn't want to come back, but she used our boss to pressure me, so I had no choice but to come back, "Tao Lin said with guilt.
"Alright, you don't need to feel guilty. We can't disobey our boss's decision. Let's go back and wait for the news. Boss is already on his way, but it'll take him several hours to arrive, "Xin Bei said, then led them to Cao Wenxin's place for a rest.
Cao Wenxin had already agreed, otherwise it wouldn't be convenient for them to go to other places at such a late hour.
In Gu Ning's place.
This time, the wall was half thinner than the previous one, so it didn't take long for the hole to be dug through.
Because they had been attacked by bats last time, the man who was digging the hole was much more careful this time, especially when he was digging through the hole. He immediately stepped aside in case something would come out and attack him.
Once the man who was digging the hole stepped aside, the man who was holding a torch moved his torch closer to the hole. After waiting for a while, the man who was digging the hole continued.
After the hole was big enough to accommodate people, the man who was holding a torch walked in first.
After walking in, there were still snakes, insects, rats, and ants around, but no one was attacked.
"Boss, there's a passage inside," the man said to Ma Shibiao once he saw the passage.
Hearing that, Ma Shibiao's face lit up. He believed that they could find the tomb if they followed the passage.
When they arrived at the cavern, they indeed saw a tomb passage. Then, they walked towards the tomb passage.
Gu Ning still walked at the front.
