"Don't even mention you! I bet even the captain wants to join their camp!"
"Haha! Forget about the captain! I bet even the commander would want to join their camp if he knew! Haha!"
Everyone waited anxiously while watching Lu Yuan and the others.
Because Lu Yuan and the others seemed completely indifferent to these things, they all stared blankly at the bottom of the pit.
They showed absolutely no interest in coming to eat.
At this moment, Zhou Tong and several others descended little by little. In order to see all the pits below clearly, Zhou Tong would pause for several minutes every meter he descended.
Nearly two hours passed, and the group had only descended less than 100 meters.
However, Lu Yuan remained calm and composed, because this kind of work required meticulous attention to detail, as Xiwen's whereabouts could be discovered at any moment.
Two more hours passed, and the people above had already been replaced twice.
After finishing dinner, Luo Xuan brought his men over to help. Although he didn't know what Lu Yuan and the others were looking for, he felt that since he had eaten their food, he should do something in return.
Another half hour passed, and Lu Yuan looked down at the time.
"It's already 11 p.m.!"
Suddenly, a sound came from inside the pit.
"Brother Zhou, come take a look! Is this sandy spot?"
Upon hearing his teammate's voice, Zhou Tong immediately made a mark on the wall and then swung the rope toward where the other person was.
In order to make it clear for the people below, Lu Yuan specially brought several huge searchlights from the dimensional space and shone them towards the cave entrance.
Zhou Tong and his group no longer needed to use dim flashlights for illumination.
Upon arriving at the location, the team member pointed to a wall in front of him and said, "Brother Zhou, look! There's sand in here, and a lot of mud too!"
Zhou Tong immediately took off his gloves, then reached out and scooped up some sand mixed with the soil from the rock wall, rubbing it in his palm.
"That's right! This sand is from our dimensional space! Haha! We found it!"
Then, Zhou Tong spoke into the walkie-talkie to Lu Yuan: "Sand has been discovered inside the space! At a height of 230 meters!"
Upon hearing Zhou Tong's words, Lu Yuan was overjoyed.
"Great! You wait here! I'm coming down right now!"
After speaking, Lu Yuan handed the walkie-talkie to a teammate next to him, then tied the rope he had prepared earlier around his waist and slowly rappelled down into the pit.
As the rope slowly descended, Lu Yuan's field of vision shrank further and further. The pit was so deep that even with the bright light of the searchlight, it couldn't reach the bottom.
However, when Lu Yuan arrived in front of Zhou Tong, the other party and his team had already dug a dent about half a meter long in the wall.
"What's going on? Have you found anything else?"
Zhou Tong pointed to the pit in front of him and said, "Look! The sand and soil inside are mixed together, which means that sand must have flowed from here, but the opening was too small, so it was sealed off!"
Lu Yuan observed carefully and indeed saw that the pit had been completely sealed off, and a large amount of mud and sand had appeared inside.
So Lu Yuan immediately took out several shovels from his dimensional space and gave them to the two of them.
"Come on! Let's dig it open and take a look!"
After saying that, the three of them started digging in the sand. Because the sand was not very firm in the sealed area, the sand in front of them began to get wet after digging about two meters. Lu Yuan also noticed that the further they dug, the higher the road became.
"Could it be that this place was once an underground river?"
Lu Yuan was a little confused, and just then, the team members in front of him dug down with their shovels again, and Lu Yuan felt the sound of the water flowing become even louder.
The water began to splash and wash away the mud and sand, making it difficult for the three of them to stand.
"Oh no! I suspect there's a large-scale groundwater pool inside!"
Zhou Tong reached out and dug through some mud and sand, and then even more water gushed out.
Lu Yuan quickly shouted, "Watch out! Stand against the wall!"
But Lu Yuan had already finished speaking, because the silt in front of them began to collapse continuously, and then a large amount of groundwater began to gush out.
"Oh no! Watch out!"
Then, the entire wall collapsed, and water rushed out. The three people didn't have time to react and were swept out of the hole.
"Splash splash splash"
The hole that had been dug out of the mud and sand finally had water flowing again. The water flow, which started as a small torrent like Hyo-hee's, slowly turned into huge waves, directly sweeping the three of them out of the hole.
The people above were on tenterhooks, shouting desperately, but after the three of them, including Leyuan and Zhou Tong, calmed down, they immediately made a gesture of relief to the people around them.
"Good heavens, we actually found it! It seems there must be some hidden secret here, and maybe we can find Xiwen!"
A hint of surprise appeared on Lu Yuan's face as he reached into the hole and pinched out a handful of sand.
The color of the sand is almost exactly the same as the sand in the dimensional space.
Zhou Tong breathed a sigh of relief. After working so hard for so long, they had finally found a clue to Xiwen's whereabouts, which was a huge encouragement to everyone.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and search along this cave entrance. Maybe Xiwen is inside!"
Lu Yuan nodded, but upon seeing the rapidly flowing water at the cave entrance, he felt a wave of helplessness.
