Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.
Chapter 188 Everything Can Be Exploded
Speaking of this experience, Yan Xuefei's mind was indeed filled with the scene of digging a tunnel to escape from the Western Han Dynasty imperial tombs in the Qinling Mountains.
Whenever Yan Xuefei recalls the scene and the rotting corpses of those tomb raiders, she still feels nauseous and haunted.
Therefore, this arduous yet glorious task was entrusted to Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan.
As professional tomb raiders, digging tunnels is a basic skill, but digging tunnels from mummies is a first for Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan. They can't help but feel uneasy, wondering what if these mummies suddenly move or have some kind of corpse poison...
Just to be on the safe side, Guan Yunlong handed over this arduous yet glorious task to "Knife Boy" above him, saying, "Knife Boy, dig!"
Chen Yibai: "Let me do it? You bunch of sleazy old men!"
Since that was the case, Chen Yibai did not resist. He climbed up to the top, took out a dagger from his body, found a random spot, and began to dig holes in the mummified corpse.
The shriveled flesh on these mummies was like dried meat that had been dried for decades; the knife couldn't penetrate it at all. After struggling for a long time, it only managed to make a small cut on the mummies' bellies.
At the same time, the deafening gunfire outside seemed to be getting closer and closer, as if the police had already rushed up.
Yan Xuefei was panting heavily and shouted at Guan Yunlong beside her, "President Guan, tell your men to hurry up! How long are you going to take this?"
Guan Yunlong was equally anxious and urged Chen Yibai, "Daozi, speed things up!"
"Ok!"
Chen Yibai grunted a heavy nasal "hmm," and began to swing his arm holding the dagger with increasing amplitude, but it was all bark and no bite, making no progress whatsoever.
It's not that Chen Yibai lacks ability, but rather that his performance of dawdling is top-notch.
Chen Yibai said, "You're using me as a tool, aren't you? Then let's take our time and see who gets impatient in the end!"
Da da da……
The gunshots outside grew closer, and they could even hear shouts of "Police...cover your head and crouch down..."
It seems they really caught up with him.
Looking at Chen Yibai again, he was still vigorously waving the dagger in his hand, scraping the dried corpse with a series of "gua sha" sounds.
"Useless! Get out of the way, I'll handle this!"
Guan Yunlong finally couldn't hold back any longer and cursed at Chen Yibai.
"Ok!"
Chen Yibai was waiting for Guan Yunlong to say this, so he immediately hummed in agreement and grabbed the vine, moving two or three meters to the side.
Guan Yunlong climbed up to a suitable distance, then took the black gold knife in his hand and chopped down on the neck of a dried corpse, just like a woodcutter chopping wood.
In Guan Yunlong's eyes, these mummies were just like dry firewood.
With several consecutive slashes, the mummified corpse's neck, along with the roots growing inside its body, was severed. However, the head did not fall off directly; instead, it remained attached to the other limbs, like a piece of 'Sachima' that had been compressed into a single, solid mass.
Guan Yunlong struggled for a while longer, using the black gold knife and dagger in turn, and finally managed to cut off the head of the mummified corpse. However, there was still a layer piled on top of it, or rather, it was unclear how many mummified corpses were piled up on top of it.
"Damn it, will this even work?"
Guan Yunlong casually tossed away the desiccated corpse head in his hand, turned to Yan Xue, and asked.
If the mummies piled up to a height of tens of meters, how long would it take to dig them out?
Yan Xuefei frowned, feeling uncertain and unsure of what to do.
But there's no turning back now. No matter how deep it is up there, we have to keep digging!
"I brought detonators!"
Just then, Wu Daoshan's voice came from the side.
The two turned around abruptly and saw Wu Daoshan take out two detonators from a small backpack.
When tomb raiders travel, they have to bring everything they need. Wu Daoshan was very experienced in tomb raiding and always had a backup plan.
Looking at the two detonators in Wu Daoshan's hand, Guan Yunlong and Yan Xuefei exchanged a glance, both thinking the same thing.
While blasting to create a tunnel is the most effective and quickest method, the situation here is unique, and no one is certain whether the blasting will cause the entire top floor to collapse.
That's nearly forty meters high. If it collapses on a large scale, falling down there would mean instant death.
The atmosphere became deathly silent for a moment.
After a moment, Yan Xuefei seemed to have made up her mind, and nodded through gritted teeth, saying, "Bomb!"
Guan Yunlong nodded, gave Wu Daoshan a look, and extended his hand.
Wu Daoshan handed two detonators to Guan Yunlong.
Guan Yunlong first used a dagger to pry out a hole, and for safety reasons, he inserted a detonator into it.
The detonator's fuse is five meters long, which is clearly not a relatively safe length.
Guan Yunlong rolled his eyes again, then turned to Chen Yibai and said, "Dao Zai, come here and light the fuse..."
After saying this, the three of them retreated to a distance of more than ten meters.
Chen Yibai thought to himself, "This bastard, is he really treating his subordinates like tools? It's become so obvious."
Let's just set it on fire. Anyway, the burning speed of this kind of fuse isn't too fast, so we still have plenty of time to retreat.
Chen Yibai went over, took out a Zippo lighter from his body, lit the fuse, quickly grabbed the vine, and swung to a distance farther than the three of them.
Most modern detonators are remotely controlled, but remote control under ancient tombs is somewhat unstable. In addition, this type of detonator is specifically designed for digging tunnels, and the shock wave from the explosion will only push to both sides.
boom!
As the fuse burned out, a thunderous thud resounded, and the vines held by the crowd trembled violently.
Although the explosion wasn't very loud, it was extremely deafening within the confined space of the Corpse Tower, causing quite a commotion.
Fortunately, the feared collapse did not occur.
After the explosion, Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan immediately took out their wolf-eye flashlights and shone them toward the blast hole.
A black hole appeared at the top of the pile of mummies, emitting bluish smoke. It was estimated to be about 50 or 60 centimeters wide, and some of the surrounding mummies were squeezed and twisted.
The explosion seems to have worked well, even better than expected.
The three of them immediately went over and looked up into the cave. They estimated it to be nearly a meter deep, but they hadn't broken through yet.
"continue!"
Guan Yunlong took out another detonator and, in the same manner, inserted it into the hole to secure it.
Now that the safety has been confirmed, there's no need to waste time asking Chen Yibai to come and light the fire.
Guan Yunlong personally took out a specially made lighter from his person.
Having learned from their previous experience, this time the group didn't hide too far.
A muffled 'boom' echoed once again within the corpse tower.
As the explosion occurred, a large amount of limbs and flesh fell from the hole, and at the same time, a beam of red light shot out from the hole!
