Chapter 247 Who Goes Down First?
The Golden Fleece used an engineer shovel to draw a foxhole for himself on the ground. He crawled inside, then took out the circuit board connected to the electronic detonator and the electronic trigger, opened the last safety, and was ready to trigger the blast.

After everything was settled, the Golden Fleece made a gesture of "everything is ready" to all of us, and then motioned us to get down as much as possible.

When everyone blocked their ears and bowed their heads together, there was nothing left but to wait quietly.

About ten seconds later, I suddenly felt a tremor, from head to toe, all over again, hitting my chest with pain.

The plastic explosives are very powerful. Although I plugged my ears at this time, under such a huge impact, it had no effect at all.

My whole body absorbed the shock wave like a gigantic ear, and was scattered and pierced by the paper-like vibrations of the shock wave.

Humming all over, that was my reaction at the time.

I don't know how long it took, but when I raised my head again, the direction of the huge boulder in front of me was basically settled. The Golden Fleece used precise calculations to create an obliquely tangential explosive force, which cut open like a knife. Take the whole stone and "throw" it a few meters away.

There was a smell of bitter almonds in the air. I supported my numb body in this smell, and then walked step by step to the place where the blast exploded.

When approaching the fragments of the stone pile to seven or eight meters away, all of us finally saw the hidden "hole" under the boulder!
The "blood well" discovered by Gu Po Rui Mingliu is now fully presented before our eyes.

This is a very ordinary circular hole. To put it bluntly, it is the same as an ordinary sewer without a safety manhole cover.

The only difference between this wellhead and the sewer is that on one side of the wellhead, there is a rusty iron chain dangling straight into the bottom of the well.

Maybe because of the seal, this section of the iron chain is relatively well preserved, and I can finally see the secret of the connection between the blood well and the iron chain through this unexpected harvest.

The chain at the mouth of the well is two or three fingers wide and narrow. It is actually not very thick, but the workmanship is really rough and wobbly, and even many links are of different sizes. Even the products produced by modern small workshops are more regular than this iron chain, black. The chains were covered with bright red rust. Looking at it from a distance, it looked as if it was stained with blood. It was worthy of Rui Mingliu's calling it a "blood well".

I walked to the root of the blood well and reached out to grab the iron chain.

One end of the chain was empty, as if nothing was tied to it, but the hand I pulled the chain felt a huge suction force in the air, "grabbing" me to the depths of the well.

The feeling on my arm made me understand that there is obvious air convection in the well, which often means that there is an exit to the outside world or a huge cave space at the other end of the well, and that space forms its own "microclimate", which is why An imbalance of internal and external pressures.

I withdrew my hand and said to Xian Hongye: "I'm afraid we've come to the right place. If the 74th engineering unit is wiped out here, the most likely thing is that something happened in the underground palace. As a history expert, your grandpa is most likely here." killed."

Xian Hongye's reaction was as complicated as ever. She seemed excited to find her grandfather Xian Yundu, but she seemed unwilling to directly face the next possible scene. In this entangled state of mind, Xian Hongye seemed a little What to do.

Also because of this helplessness, Xian Hongye said almost nothing to me, just held her breath, bit her lips, and stared at the mouth of the well.

At this time, Lin Shaosong came over, he took some lame steps, paused, looked at the deep hole, and said to Xian Hongye: "Yezi, I suggest you don't go down."

Lin Shaosong's words are very surprising. You must know that Xian Hongye came here for the affairs of Heilanbo City. None of us thought about not letting her go down.

Facing Xian Hongye's puzzlement, Young Master Lin acted slowly. He smiled slightly and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm afraid that when you find Grandpa, you won't be able to control your emotions."

What Lin Shaosong said makes sense.Although Xian Hongye has never met her grandfather, she has always taken him as her role model. Moreover, Xian Hongye's excursion is carrying the dream of three generations of Xian's family to find their parents.If Xian Hongye could really find Xian Yundu's body in the underground palace, then she might not be able to control it.

It is very dangerous to be unable to control emotions in the underground palace.

In this way, Lin Shaosong's words are very reasonable, and not only reasonable, I agree with both hands.

Seeing Xian Hongye's anxious look, I hurriedly helped Lin Shaosong: "Ye Zi, this young master Lin is right! If you can find Mr. Xian at that time, they will also send you up. It doesn't matter if you go down or not." Besides, this expedition was organized by Young Master Lin, so you have to make him behave!"

My words suddenly caused Lin Shaosong's face to convulse, and then he barely demonstrated his panic and said: "Me? You let me go down?"

I nodded slightly confused and said: "You don't let Xiao Yezi go down, isn't it because you want to do it for yourself?"

Lin Shaosong did not agree to my question, but stared at the mouth of the well for a long time without speaking.

At this time, I was embarrassed to find that I might have made a mistake.

Young Master Lin didn't have the guts or intention to go down by himself, he probably wanted to find an excuse to drive us all down the cave, firstly to avoid any harm to himself, and secondly, he wanted to "drive" us down and create A chance to be alone with Xian Hongye?
This little abacus is really not bad.

Although Lin Shaosong's thinking has been fully figured out by me, I have not exposed his thinking. What I think is that I quite understand him. After all, he spends so much money to do things for the Xian family. Xian Hongye didn't even let him touch her hand, it's a bit unreasonable no matter how you say it.

Therefore, I very "understanding" and said to him: "I said young master, I think you have bad legs and feet, so don't go down. How about a few of us going down, and I will notify you when it is safe?"

My words were all good intentions, without the slightest trace of contempt or oppression, but for some reason, when Lin Shaosong heard them, he changed completely!

The boy gave me the same stare as he did on the mountain, and then said to me: "I have no problem with my legs. I will lead the team down in person in a while, and I will definitely send Xian Yundu up to his old man's house!"

"No." I was surprised.

Before I could say anything, Lin Shaosong suddenly raised his voice an octave and said, "This is my expedition team! Please let me do what I want! Oke?!"

Afterwards, Lin Shaosong did not leave me, but continued to walk towards the direction of the Golden Fleece with slightly limping steps.

His legs seemed to be some kind of unspeakable taboo.
