Chapter 137 Borrowing a Rat to Get Out
"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock..."

Drops of water gathered and formed from the tip of the soil at the top, dripping onto the water formed below, making a faint lapping sound.

In front of the eyes, as the depth goes deeper, the line of sight does not become darker, but there is a little light coming in, making people wonder where the light comes from...

Wang Jin, who was walking in front, stopped again. Chen Musheng, Li Yan, Bai Lingxi and others behind him looked in front of him.

Their faces became stunned.

"There are three channels?"

Fu Ping said in surprise.

He stepped forward and stood in front of Wang Jin, a little worried, "How do I choose?"

Everyone was a little confused now. Wang Jin didn't seem surprised when he saw the two extra passages. Instead, it seemed that everything appeared according to his ideas.

"Sure enough, Li Yan wants to play this game of [finding the tunnel]..."

Before anyone could ask, Wang Jin said, "If my guess is correct, there will be more than just three passages, and there will be more passages as you go inside."

Chen Musheng frowned.

If this is the case, how can they choose the correct tunnel leading to the hillside without any equipment?
Isn't this difficult for the strong?

"There are three channels: left, right, and center. Which one should we choose?"

Bai Lingxi carefully looked at the three passages in front of him, and couldn't see anything strange. They all seemed to be the same, so it was difficult to make a choice.

No one at the scene knew the answer, and no one dared to make an easy choice.

Only one of the three channels is correct. If you choose the wrong one, you will face the danger of ignorance.

Therefore, everyone present couldn't help but look at Wang Jin.

Wang Jin said nothing as he came to the front of the three entrances.

As things stand now, there aren't many choices before him.

The first option is to separate the team and enter each channel.

The advantage of this is that you can know the conditions of each channel, and someone can find the correct path 100% of the time.

If the passage is not deep, you can go back and notify others.

But the disadvantage is that after entering the channel, if there is a steady stream of channel choices, it is easy to get lost.

The second option is for everyone to enter the same channel.

The advantage is that you don’t have to worry about people getting scattered and lost, but the disadvantage is that if you make the wrong choice, everyone will fail.

"So, how to choose..."

Chen Musheng seemed to know what Wang Jin was thinking. He also walked up and asked such a question spontaneously.

"Boom—"

The surrounding mountains shook, and everyone's expressions changed. They all immediately looked for nearby bunkers to stabilize their bodies.

"This 'vibration every 15 minutes' is really troublesome..."

Fu Ping complained.

Under this shock, everyone was almost unable to stand in a short period of time.

"Squeak... squeak..."

"Did you hear that?"

Next to the entrance of the passage, Wang Jin ignored the swaying mountain and asked Chen Musheng.

"Did you hear it? It sounded like a mouse?"

Chen Musheng knew that Wang Jin was asking about sounds other than vibrations, but he was not sure.

At this time, the shaking of the mountain stopped.

But the voice that was suspected to be that of a mouse became louder and louder, and then gradually became quieter...

They seemed to be moving away.

"It came from the middle passage."

This time, Chen Musheng was sure, he said.

"Yes, but have you ever heard of [Miner Rats]?"

Wang Jin asked.

Others shook their heads, and Chen Musheng guessed, "The rats encountered while digging the mines? What is the relationship between the two?"

"In some cases, [mine rats] can save the lives of mine workers..."

With that said, Wang Jin turned around and motioned for everyone to follow him, "Just like the rat noises coming from the middle channel now, their function is similar to [mine rats]."

"Let's follow him." "How can we find the correct passage?" Chen Musheng asked others to follow him quickly, and he asked Wang Jin doubtfully.

Wang Jin nodded, "The voices of these mice are getting smaller and smaller. If they can come in, they will definitely know the exit. If they are not walking towards us, it only means that the exit is on the opposite side..."

"So it is."

Everyone seemed to understand, and unknowingly, the mouse helped them.

Fortunately, Wang Jin knows so much...

What everyone didn't expect was that after entering the middle passage, which was only a dozen meters away, six more passage openings appeared in front of them.

It's time to make a choice again.

"Is it wrong?"

Fu Ping was anxious.

Wang Jin made a "shh" gesture to silence everyone...

Soon, the faint "squeaking" sound of the mouse that was about to disappear came from the passage on the far right...

"This way."

Wang Jin immediately led the way towards the passage on the far right.

The others immediately followed.

Then there were eight more entrances, which made people feel numb.

Fortunately, Wang Jin has very good hearing and can always use mice to find the right path.

It wasn't until 10 minutes later that we came to a strange flat land.

I saw the dim light that I had not seen for a long time.

The surrounding gables are raised one after another, just like standing under a mountain well.

"Fortunately, you discovered the characteristic of mice, otherwise we would have been completely lost by just those dozen or so passages."

Arriving next to Wang Jin, Chen Musheng patted Wang Jin on the shoulder with some admiration, "However, this doesn't seem to be a good place after coming out. It seems that I can't get out..."

"Yeah, now that I don't have the ability, these tens of meters high walls have become obstacles." Fu Ping came over and said as well.

"Just, why is it like this?"

Bai Lingxi said something strange, and everyone quickly looked at her.

"I mean, why did we appear in a place like a 'patio' after we came out?"

Bai Lingxi said, "This doesn't seem to be the exit to the top of the hillside. I think it went downhill instead and came to the edge halfway up the mountain. We are trapped here."

"Wang Jin, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Wang Jin remained silent, Chen Musheng looked at Wang Jin.

When no one noticed, Wang Jin had already closed his eyes.

Now when he heard Chen Musheng ask him, he opened his eyes and said something surprising.

"It is very possible that we have arrived in the valley..."

Wang Jin turned around and looked at the road to the left, "There was the sound of water..."

The others' expressions darkened and they all looked towards where Wang Jin was talking.

A huge waterfall appeared a hundred meters away, with a large amount of water vapor emitting around it.

"how so…"

Li Qiqi seemed to see despair and murmured.

Go back the way you came?

It is basically impossible. Without the mouse to guide the way, it is easy for everyone to get lost in the road passage just now.

But stay here?

You can't get out even if you stay here. It's surrounded by high and raised mountain walls. There is only a waterfall more than ten meters wide in front of you a hundred meters away.

There is no breakthrough at all.

"Go to the waterfall and see..."

Wang Jin took the lead to move.

"It's just a waterfall. Is it useful to see it?"

Lu Guang asked. He hadn't spoken for a long time and seemed to have finally found a topic to talk about.
