Jiaohua

Chapter 1181
"No, no!" Zisu's boss hurriedly said, sweating profusely, "That's not an old woman down there, and there's no one down there! The voice sounds like it, but it's not!"

"Then where does this voice come from?" Li Guohao asked.

"To be honest, Master Jun, I don't know..." Dong Zisu looked towards the cellar, "The voice came and went, and it seemed to come from the innermost wall, but I didn't dare to go there, and thought about hiring someone to go Take a look, but no one dares to go. This wine cellar is just so deserted."

At this time, the voice came faintly again, Li Guohao who was about to speak stopped, held his breath, and listened intently.

Sobbing and whimpering, whining and whimpering, not crisp, really sounds like an old woman's.

Finally, the sound slowly faded away.

"It's inside the wall?" Li Guohao asked.

"Yes..." Zisu's boss said.

Li Guohao frowned, looking at the deep cellar.

Everyone waited for him to speak, but no one spoke.

Suddenly, a few mice ran out "squeaking", everyone including Li Guohao was startled.

"Damn it!" Li Guohao scolded, "It's another mouse, it's not over yet!"

But at this moment, a very shrill scream came from the depths of the wine cellar, and the "old woman" changed from a sad and depressed cry to a heart-piercing wail.

The sudden startled sound was more terrifying than the "squeak" of a mouse, and a soldier rolled directly down the dirt steps.

As soon as Fang landed on the ground, there was an even harsher loud noise from inside. The soldier screamed in fright, rolled and crawled to the ground, ignoring the pain of the fall, and ran up.

But I heard a person yelling in a deep voice: "Who is making noise!"

The voice was sonorous and powerful, full of energy, Li Guohao blinked his eyes, listening, it was still somewhat familiar...

"But, is Zhang Ji Zhang the order?" Li Guohao said.

There was silence inside, and said: "Li Guohao?"

"Huh?!" Everyone was overjoyed, and Li Guohao said happily, "It's really Zhang Zhiling!"

Don't care about the "old woman" and fear now, Li Guohao was the first to rush down.

Zhang Ji frowned and looked at Shen Lie: "General Shen, it's Li Guohao's voice."

This is a very long earth and stone steps, the steepness is not great, the platform is wide and long, the space is dark and damp, and there is a strong musty smell.

Shen Lie walked in the front, already twenty steps away, because of the movement behind him, he stopped early, and at this moment looked sideways at Zhang Ji.

Ye Zheng followed closely behind, with the torch in his hand throwing Shen Lie's figure backwards, twisting and turning on the pitted rock wall.

"Before Li Guohao spoke, there seemed to be other voices?" Shen Lie asked.

"It seems to be the cries and screams of the old woman." Zhang Ji said.

"How is this possible?" Ye Zheng said.

"General, I can testify, I heard it." A soldier next to him whispered.

"Me too." Another human said, raising his hand.

"I'm not sure if it's true, but it's very similar." Zhang Ji said.

It was precisely because he heard the crying that he stood here and searched.

"Zhang Zhiling?" Li Guohao's voice sounded at this moment, "Is that you? Where's General Shen?"

Everyone immediately looked towards the rock wall.

Li Guohao opened his eyes and waited.

Hearing Zhang Ji's voice just now, he rushed here in a flash of brain, and now he stopped to notice that the ground was densely packed with dead rats, he almost didn't spit it out.

His men were holding torches, and each of them looked uncomfortable.

And that same brain fever followed
"Why are you here?" Zhang Ji's voice came from the other end, "Where are you?"

"Zhang Zhiling, it's a long story, can you see if I can pass here?"

"Wait a moment." Zhang Ji said.

He looked at Shen Lie who was approaching: "General Shen, have you broken this rock wall?"

Shen Lie raised his eyebrows, looked at the aisle from top to bottom, paused, and looked at Ruan Guoliang: "Chisel."

"Yes!" Ruan Guoliang responded, and immediately asked his left and right assistants to go forward.

Ruan Guoliang has a rough temperament, and his left and right lieutenants are selected by him according to his own preferences. Both are big men, reckless and brave.

The two stepped forward with a sledgehammer, raised their hands and chiseled angrily.

As soon as the hammer came down, the shrill and terrifying scream sounded instantly, shaking the sky and the earth, as if a sharp long thorn pierced the ear instantly.

The two big men roared in shock, one sledgehammer fell to the ground in fright, and the other shoulder jumped up in fright.

Many soldiers around were shouting almost at the same time, clasping their ears, and even Zhang Ji, a veteran soldier who was used to wind and rain, almost lost his legs.

On the contrary, a dark man like Ye Zheng who has undergone special training is a little calmer, but his face is pale and bloodless.

Ye Zheng looked at the only young man in the audience who remained calm: "Master..."

Shen Lie looked solemn and stern, his black eyes were as frozen as icebergs, he looked at the cracks on the cave wall, and said, "Cut again."

The two big men didn't dare to disobey the order he gave himself, and after a little relief, they immediately raised the sledgehammer and smashed it down hard.

As the sledgehammer fell, the ear-piercing screams sounded again. Fortunately, everyone was prepared this time and was no longer as frightened as before.

More cracks appeared in the cave walls, which were of surprisingly poor quality.

Zhang Ji suddenly said: "Wait a minute!"

The two big men stopped.

Zhang Ji stepped forward quickly and reached out to touch the cave wall.

He imitated the appearance of groping the cave wall for the first time here before, and suddenly, there was another howling and screaming, which was not as loud as a sledgehammer, but it also penetrated people.

Zhang Ji frowned, and pressed that spot again, and the same howling sound came again.

He took out a dagger and stabbed it, and the sound changed, but it became the difference of thickness, height and scale, instead of timbre.

Zhang Ji was stunned, and a guess appeared in his mind.

"It's a musical instrument." Shen Lie said.

"Yes," Zhang Ji looked back at him, "There are no ghosts or mysteries here. This rock wall has a special structure, just like a musical instrument!"

Some people can play music with leaves, and some people use bamboo chopsticks to play music by tapping porcelain of different heights. Everything can be a musical instrument, and this rock wall is actually the same.

"It's not accidental, it's man-made." Shen Lie looked at the rock wall and said in a deep voice, "Keep digging."

"Yes!" The two big men took the order.

Amid the heart-piercing screams and the occasional cry of the "old woman", the cave wall finally shattered into a large hole.

But the cave wall is too thick, Li Guohao and the others are still on the other side of the wall.

Zhang Ji measured it and roughly estimated that it was at least half a foot thick.

The reason why I was able to talk to Li Guohao and the others was that although the walls of the cave were thick, they were not solid, and there was even wind that occasionally passed through the gaps in the middle.

Whenever the wind blows, there will be the cry of the "old woman", and the strength and weakness will vary with the size of the wind.Later, due to the continuous destruction of the rock mass by the sledgehammer in the hands of the two big men, the "crying sound" gradually went out of tune, and finally changed completely.

Not long after, the howling sound disappeared, and a large man stretched out his hand to tear down a piece of rock mass, and the corpses of many mice slid down through the gap.At the same time, the light from Li Guohao's torch came over.
