By the time Xiao Yichen and his men arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sun was about to set.
The forest is always more dangerous at night.
For safety, everyone gathered together to move.
In order to avoid getting lost, marks were placed on the way into the mountain.
We also agreed on what kind of mark to make if we get lost.
Always carry matches with you.
If you really get lost, there is a way to deal with it.
Several people were holding flashlights.
Zhou Maolin led the way in front.
Xiao Yichen followed closely behind.
Although this forest is not close to Shangwan Village.
But it’s not very far from them.
It's also his territory.
However, the further he walked in, the more confused Xiao Yichen became.
Are you sure there is a cave here?
Are you sure this isn't an enemy trap?
As the surrounding environment becomes more familiar.
Xiao Yichen became more worried.
He is basically as familiar with this place as his own home.
In his impression, there were no caves, tunnels or the like in this place.
Xiao Yichen's face was solemn.
Give Captain Zhang a look to be careful.
However, the lighting was extremely poor at night and Captain Zhang did not notice it.
A few black lines appeared on Xiao Yichen's forehead.
This tacit understanding is too poor.
In desperation, Xiao Yichen had to remind him: "Captain Zhang, please be careful later!"
While Captain Zhang was looking over, he gave him another look.
Thank God, this time, Captain Zhang finally saw it.
After receiving Xiao Yichen's reminder, Captain Zhang's expression became more serious.
While Zhou Maolin wasn't paying attention, he exchanged glances with others.
Everyone was on high alert and ready for battle.
Fortunately, there was no movement.
Follow Zhou Maolin to a mountain wall.
Just stop and don't move.
Zhou Maolin pointed to a cliff and said, "This is it."
Everyone looked left and right, but really couldn't see anything.
Some people with hot tempers even want to go up and hit others.
Are you sure this isn't a scam?
Xiao Yichen also looked at the mountain wall.
There was some uncertainty in his eyes.
Is there really a cave here?
They don't look alike at all!
Unexpectedly, Zhou Maolin first pushed aside some messy weeds, and then, to everyone's surprise, pried open an irregular stone slab.
After opening it, it turned out to be a tunnel.
Deputy Captain Zhao picked up a dead branch, lit it and threw it in. A section of light dropped more than one meter, illuminating a winding passage in the belly of the mountain.
As the fire grew bigger, the light became clearer, and one could clearly see the traces of artificial excavation on the wall of the passage.
After a while, the dead branches gradually died out.
The entire passage darkened, and under the eerie moonlight, it looked like a monster with its mouth open.
Want to swallow everyone.
When everyone saw that the dead branches could burn, they concluded that this was the place they could go down.
Fearing an ambush and considering the terrain, they decided that Xiao Yichen would take three people down first.
The others followed behind at a distance of about several dozen meters.
Zhou Maolin walked in front.
Xiao Yichen followed closely behind.
The entire passage was very narrow, only about one person tall, and Xiao Yichen could barely stand and walk inside.
However, you have to lower your head when you encounter a low place.
The width is only about one meter.
The whole space was dark and damp.
As people entered, a slight strange noise was heard.
Maybe it was the echo of their footsteps.
Or maybe it was the sound of the wind blowing through the cliff face.
The flashlight can only illuminate a small area in front.
Zhou Maolin obediently led the way in front.
No action was taken.
Finally, after walking for a long time, Zhou Maolin stopped and pointed to the rough wooden door nailed with planks in front of him.
"That's it."
Xiao Yichen nodded.
