I strongly asked to go with me to Lantern Festival and continued to explain to me, "Don't be excited if I say that. The ancestral tomb belongs to your family. I will never move. Even if there is a gold mountain hidden inside, I will not move a finger. But the dungeon ruins below are not your ancestral tomb. Do you want to eat alone? Let me tell you, and I also know the location of the dungeon. If you don't let me go, I can find it myself."

I know the purpose of Lantern Festival saying this. I don’t know if there is any good thing below, but it is true that there is danger. Lantern Festival is also worried about my safety, so I had to smile bitterly, "Okay, I'll accept you. While I still know my second uncle's location, you come here as soon as possible. I'm worried that there are many dreams in the night."

"Okay," Lanxiao agreed, "I'll buy tickets now. If it goes well, you will be waiting for me in the evening."

After hanging up the phone, I left the village and went straight to the county town. If I wanted to go to the ground, we still had some necessary things to prepare to think about them, and I was a little amused. When we came last time, we didn't have the equipment to cram the moment, and this time it was like this again.

While it was still early, I traveled half of the county to buy short knives, ropes, gloves, lighters, some food, bandages and iodine and other first aid drugs. What surprised me was that I actually bought some cold fireworks at a wedding ceremony company. Although they were not the same as those we had used before, they were better than nothing.

More than an hour has passed since I just talked to Lanxiao. I called Lanxiao to determine his location. He told me that he had gotten off at the train station in our city and now he took a taxi to me. It is estimated that it will take about 40 minutes to get there. I couldn't help but sigh that the current development of transportation has shortened the distance between people.

I found a fast food restaurant, ordered a drink, and sat in it to rest, waiting for the Lantern Festival. Looking at the dizzying sky outside, I unconsciously saw thousands of lights outside, and the streets were just on the first lights. The last time I came here, it was during the Chinese New Year. I sat here again not long after. Although it was still the same, I encountered so many incredible experiences in the middle. I made me think a lot and sigh at the impermanence of fate.

Nearly an hour passed, and during this period, a text message from Lantern Festival asked me where I was. Not long after I sent him the location, he appeared in front of the store.

Yuanxiao was cursing and sat opposite me, "I went to the taxi I called at the railway station just now, it was really bad. From the city railway station, it was a total of more than 30 kilometers. The bastard driver asked me for 300 yuan."

I took a sip of the drink, "How much did you give him?"

Yuanxiao curled his lips, "I gave it to Ya 200, and he didn't dare to say anything."

I nodded and smiled, thinking in my heart whether to tell him the truth. In fact, it is only 100 yuan to get a taxi.

"I haven't eaten yet. Have you eaten some food together?" As he said that, Lantern Festival started ordering dishes. I suddenly realized that when Lantern Festival and I were alone, we were basically eating and drinking. We were indeed good friends with wine and meat with good relationships.

After dinner, I threw a backpack to him, "I have prepared the equipment I can buy, one serving for each person."

Yuanxiao opened and glanced, "Since that's the case, then go early or late, set off."

We took a taxi back to the village while it was not too late. We got off the bus far from the entrance of the village. The weather was no longer so cold at this time, and many people in the village were not asleep. Yuanxiao and I waited for a while, and saw that the lights in the village began to go out one after another. We carefully walked through the village and went up to Guibei Mountain to go straight to the Zhuo family's ancestral grave.

This time, we were familiar with the road. After arriving at the cemetery of the Zhuo family’s ancestral tomb, we found the steep slope we had slid down last time, and then went upwards and began to look for the hole we entered and exited last time. However, what we didn’t expect was that the hole that was originally near this place could not be found.

Lantern Festival and I were in a hurry, but there was nothing we could do.

Yuanxiao scolded, "What's the situation? You can run away with a hole in the ground."

I squatted on the ground and groped for a while, and found that there was something unusual on the ground under the weeds. I thought for a while and said to Yuanxiao, "I can't run away, but I must be blocked."

"It's blocked." Yuanxiao looked at me in surprise, "Your second uncle did it."

I nodded, "That's how ten ** is."

"What should I do?" Yuanxiao scratched his head vigorously, "You can't go home, right?"

I didn't say anything, turned my head and looked up above the steep slope. I remember that at the top of the steep slope there was a cliff. I stepped up. The night wind blew on my face. I looked down. Under the cover of the night, despite the flashlight, the bottom of the cliff was still not clear.

Lantern Festival walked to my side and looked down, "What are you looking at? Do you think there is something strange below?"

I frowned and thought for a while and said, "I'm just thinking, will there be other entrances?"

Yuanxiao looked at the bottom of the cliff again, "You have thought about it, I'm not good at climbing up and down." As he said that, he looked around, as if there were other possibilities.

Suddenly, Yuanxiao patted me and said, "Look." I looked along the place he pointed at. Sure enough, I saw slender grooves on the land, and there were some signs of wear on a rock on the edge.

Seeing these, my eyes suddenly lit up the traces left by the steel claws at this time. It was obvious that someone had climbed down from this place with the steel claws. The ten who could come to this place and know how to use steel claws was the second uncle.

Yuanxiao immediately untied the rope from his backpack, but we didn't have professional tools like steel claws in our hands. This is a groove below the steep slope, surrounded by weeds, and the nearest tree is still far away from us. We wanted to go down the rope to the bottom of the cliff, but we couldn't find a place to fix the rope.

After thinking for a long time, Yuanxiao thought of a good idea. He broke several trunks as thick as calves from the tree far away. We took advantage of the narrow position of the groove where we were, and placed a piece of trunk horizontally in the groove, inserted both ends deeply into the soil on both sides of the groove, and then fixed them with other trunks, and finally fixed the rope to the horizontal trunk.

After tied the rope, Yuanxiao and I pulled it hard, and it was indeed very strong. Since we were in a small county town and we couldn't buy professional hiking ropes, I could only buy 15 mm diameter hemp ropes in hardware stores. It was not very convenient for Yuanxiao to climb up and down, so I went down first to explore the road, who was relatively light.

I put the flashlight on my wrist, put on my gloves, and then grabbed the rope and slid down. The night wind blew my body and swung back and forth with the rope. Yuanxiao illuminated me with flashlights on it. This situation reminded me of the experience of encountering a headless stone statue deep in the ground of Tengmen Mountain some time ago. Fortunately, I had such an experience, which made me not feel nervous at this time. The difference is that the weather is good today, the moonlight is falling, and the things around me can be vaguely visible in a light silver light curtain.

I slowly kept going downwards. At this time, the weather had already warmed up, and all kinds of stubborn plants were growing lushly on the steep cliff. Although this situation gave me a lot of footholds, it also brought certain obstacles to me. I had to often push away the branches blocking the trees below with my hands. However, I soon discovered a phenomenon that some stems and branches were broken before I came down, so I could infer that someone had just passed by here. This discovery greatly increased my confidence. So I began to pay attention to the surrounding situation.

Sure enough, not far below, under the cover of a vegetation, there was a hidden hole. I couldn't help but feel happy, and carefully leaned over, fired a flashlight and shone it inside. The hole was very deep, and it was pitch black and there was no end. I sent a signal to Lantern Festival above, and then lowered my head and crawled in.

From the traces on the cave wall, I could see that this was also a thief, and it was a long time ago. I listened with my ears. There seemed to be no sound in the depths of the thief, but if I felt it carefully, it seemed that a faint sound floated into my ears. When I focused on hearing it clearly, it hid it silently. This made me feel very strange.

So, I didn't dare to move forward rashly, so I could only wait for the Lantern Festival to meet. After a while, a sound of leaves shaking violently came over, and then the huge figure of Lantern Festival appeared at the entrance of the cave. The moonlight outside was blocked by him in an instant, and the cave suddenly became dark.

Yuanxiao also got into the hole and patted the grass stick on his body, "Hey, there is really another entrance. It seems that the original entrance above was blocked by your second uncle, but he didn't expect that we could find this entrance."

I shook my head gently, "We can find this place, it's just a loophole. The key is that my second uncle doesn't know that we have discovered this place yet, otherwise with his ability, it would be impossible for us to leave any clues."

Yuanxiao nodded, "Then let's act quickly, otherwise, once your second uncle notices something, I'm worried that something will be buried forever like the tombs under your ancestral home."

I couldn't help but feel moved. I believed this, and my second uncle would definitely do it. I waved my hand to Lanxiao and walked towards the depths of the cave entrance.

This thief hole was not long and it soon came to an end. But when we drilled out the thief hole, the scene in front of us surprised us a little.
