Chapter 61 Message
On the silent and dark stone steps, the three of Chen Ziyan were walking slowly.

After reaching a consensus, they did not delay too much, and soon entered the secret passage.

It was also when they approached the secret passage that they discovered that the situation in this secret passage was a little different. It was not a straight ladder leading directly to the ground as they thought, but a circular staircase built around the rock wall.

The overall structure of this space is in the shape of an inverted cone, and the suspended part in the center is like a slightly smaller inverted cone.

As for the overall height, they have no way of knowing for the time being, because the flashlight can't reach the bottom at all.

After walking like this for about half an hour, Wang Kaixuan, who occasionally took a flashlight to take pictures below, suddenly reminded: "Master Chen, Lao Hu, we are going to the end!"

When Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi heard the words, they also quickly looked down, and saw that under the low light of their hands, they could vaguely see something at the bottom of the cave, which was originally pitch black.

Although there is no way to see the specific situation clearly because of the distance, what is certain is that they are not far from the bottom at this time.

Seeing that victory is just around the corner, they don't need to maintain their own speed in order to preserve their strength. Now it is king to reach the end of the stone steps as soon as possible.

With this thought, the speed of the three of them increased by more than one notch in the blink of an eye.

Not long after, Chen Ziyan and the others came to a position a few meters above the bottom.

Here, the light of the flashlight is enough to see everything below.

Instead of rushing through the last section of the road, they stopped here temporarily, standing on the stone steps and looking at the situation below.

With the help of a flashlight, one can clearly see a circular platform below, which is made of bluestone as a whole, with a diameter of about ten meters, and a square stone well in the center.

The most conspicuous thing is the edge of the stone platform, where there are actually two tents.

"Why are there still tents here?" Wang Kaixuan asked curiously, looking at the two old tents.

"I don't know." Chen Ziyan shook his head.

He really didn't know what was going on with the tent, it wasn't mentioned in the diary at all.

"Do you think this tent was left by the previous group?" Hu Bayi said thoughtfully.

"That's not sure." Chen Ziyan thought about it, and felt that it made sense.

According to the information they got, two groups of people should have come here one after another.

But the Kwantung Army has special barracks above, so there is no need to set up camp here underground.

In this way, only the group of people in front of them are more likely to do so.

"Go, go down and take a look." Wang Kaixuan didn't bother to think about it, so he immediately picked up his submachine gun and walked towards the stone platform below.

He has always been able to do it without talking about that wave, and now that he has something in his hand, it is even more so.

The two tents were not far from the stone steps, so they walked down the stone steps and came to the tent in two or three steps.

Wang Kaixuan walked in the front without hesitation. In order to prevent danger inside, he did not rush to lift the curtain of the tent, but directly cut the side tarpaulin with a bayonet, opening an exit for the tent again.

But to their surprise, there was nothing in the tent, as if it had never been used.

"Look at this again!"

Afterwards, Wang Kaixuan followed suit and scratched the other tent. The condition inside was exactly the same as the previous one.

The tent was empty, there was nothing there, it was just an empty shell.

"What's the situation?" Wang Kaixuan put away his bayonet and looked at Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi.

He's never been good at this kind of brainstorming.

Chen Ziyan frowned and pondered for a while, then said, "This looks like an abandoned tent, but it seems a little strange that the inside is so clean."

"It's as if it was placed here on purpose." Hu Bayi continued his words.

Afterwards, the two looked at each other and said in unison: "Put it here on purpose?!"

This is not a very hidden arrangement, so they can see the clue so quickly.

Since it is placed here on purpose, is it to cover something?
Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan pulled out a short stick, lightly picked the tent in front of him, and turned it upside down.

But to his surprise, there was nothing unusual on the ground under the tent.

"No?" Seeing this, Hu Bayi also frowned.

After they came to the conclusion that the tent was placed on purpose, they all guessed that the mystery might be hidden underneath.

That's why Chen Ziyan overturned the tent.

But now there is smooth bluestone underneath, which is a bit unexpected for the two of them.

"Eh? Are there words in it?"

Just when the two of them were thinking about what went wrong, they heard Wang Kaixuan's astonishment.

The two hurriedly turned their heads to look, and found that the tent that was overturned by Chen Ziyan just now fell right in front of Wang Kaixuan, and the side that was cut was still on the top. On the inside, it seems that there are lines of small characters written on it.

Taking the bayonet in Wang Kaixuan's hand, Chen Ziyan carefully dismantled the tent, and saw that there were indeed some handwriting on the side where the curtain of the tent was.

"This is really good at playing. If you write the words on this surface, you won't be able to find it if you don't drill in." Wang Kaixuan didn't bother to study what was written on it, and commented on this method from the side.

Hu Bayi, on the other hand, was more concerned about the above content, so he started to study it immediately.

Chen Ziyan was not in a hurry to look, but took a bayonet and went to take apart the other tent to see if there was such a message inside.

But unfortunately, the tent was obviously a tactic of suspicious soldiers, and the inside of the tarpaulin was empty.

When he turned around and wanted to ask Hu Bayi what was written on it, he found that something was wrong with Hu Bayi's state.

Although he couldn't see Hu Bayi's expression, with the help of the flashlight, Chen Ziyan could clearly see that Hu Bayi's hand holding the tarpaulin was covered with veins, as if he was forcibly enduring something, even his tall and straight body , trembling slightly.

Wang Kaixuan next to him also noticed this, and quickly asked, "Old Hu, are you alright?"

Hu Bayi did not reply, but continued to stare at the tarpaulin in his hand.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan came to Hu Bayi's side, and also looked at the tarpaulin, wanting to see what was written on it, which could make a man like Hu Bayi lose his composure so much!
The handwriting on the tarpaulin is beautiful and neat, and it looks like it was written by a woman.

And when Chen Ziyan saw the above content clearly, he finally understood why Hu Bayi behaved like this.
