Chapter 574 Earth Tide

Those guards brought back many valuable things.

Because, they found traces of people living here.

The guards brought back some bones that were almost fossilized, but Su Peng could still recognize them at a glance that these bones were definitely human bones.

"Captain Su Peng, there are such bones everywhere here, as if they are human bones, but it seems that these people were attacked and died everywhere."

The little guard leader who went to search for these bones said to Su Peng.

Su Peng nodded. He looked at the bones of these humans that were about to fossil and found that these bones were not very big, and seemed to be a little shorter than ordinary people.

"This may be the characteristic of the people of this ethnic group here, right?"

Su Peng thought so in his mind that from the size of the bones, it seems that everyone here is of the same race, which is very different from the current Western Regions people. Of course, this may also be caused by long-term malnutrition.

Some of the other things found were all slightly corrupt weapons, but there were a few weapons, which were made of unique materials in this underground city that Su Peng had seen. They had not decayed for thousands of years.

After looking at this fortress-like city, Su Peng could already determine that this place should be the fortress fortress built by people from the above cities below.

"Go out and take a look... President Yang Xi's men should have left here. The sound of the mechanism we heard above before was the sound of them using this lift platform to enter the underground."

Su Peng glanced at the environment here and said to his subordinates.

The same was true for the leader Adulaganluo and others. Everyone rested for a while and then continued to march underground.

Su Peng and others walked out of the underground outpost fortress and walked outside.

This outpost fortress was not very big. Su Peng and others walked for a while before they arrived outside, but they saw that outside was like a very empty underground plain. It seemed that there was another layer of space underground, and I don’t know what the cause of geology here was.

Su Peng had good ears. He listened vaguely. There seemed to be some running water sound in front of him. Su Peng led the team and walked in the direction where the sound was produced.

After walking for a while, Su Peng and others found that the sound of the water flow in front of them became clearer and clearer. He knew in his heart that, sure enough, the groundwater source of the entire city should be below.

But Su Peng still has a little doubt. It is, if the water source is in such a deep place, those who live underground will have no special mechanism to retrieve water when they are usually living, would it be a bit troublesome?

However, Su Peng was not particularly worried about the ancients. He led the team over and soon arrived at a special plain.

"Hmm? Why is this terrain here?"

When Su Peng came here, he realized that the terrain he was in was extremely strange.

The terrain here is like a huge cheese. There are many huge and bottomless holes on the ground of this underground plain.

Among these holes, the small one is about the size of a football. The large hole, even as big as a crater on the moon, is almost larger than the lake Su Peng just encountered.

Between these holes, there are many places for people to walk. In the wide places, even if Su Peng lined up the team horizontally, he could easily walk away. In the narrow places, he could also allow ten people and twenty people to walk side by side.

However, although it can be used for people to walk, walking in this area requires a lot of courage and a strong heart, because these holes look bottomless, and are pitch black inside, which looks extremely terrifying... It is normal for people to feel that a giant dragon suddenly flew out of it.

The rest of this area is extremely vast in front of it. The terrain of the holes is more than 20 meters lower than Su Peng's current location. However, you can walk along the rock slope. The rock slope seems to be dug by manpower. It seems that ancient people often enter this area.

"Brother Su, should we walk through this area?"

Seeing such a strange terrain here, Ouyang Qing asked Su Peng next to Su Peng.

Su Peng looked here and did not feel particularly dangerous in his heart. Moreover, he could hear that although the sound of running water was very deep from here, it should be deep below the holes.

"Master Adullah, I heard that you have a good tracking method. Did you find out which direction did the people we are tracking go?"

Su Peng did not answer Ouyang Qing's question for the time being, but asked Adula.

After hearing this, Adula twitched his nose a few times, and said, "They should have traveled through somewhere in this area."

"Oh? Why do you judge this?"

Su Peng saw Adula twitching his nose and felt curious and asked him.

Adula smiled and said, "I often walk in the desert, and my nose is like a camel... Although I can't smell the water source dozens of miles away, I have no problem with my range of more than ten miles. And I smelled the aroma of some fragrant powder used by women in the air. I heard that there is a woman in the other party's team. I think the fragrance is the fragrance of that woman."

Su Peng couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this. He remembered that he had watched a remade version of the movie called "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman". The protagonist in the new version of the movie seemed to have this ability to smell the body fragrance of a special woman within a range of several kilometers.

However, the protagonist in the movie is a handsome foreign guy. Although Adula looks quite masculine, it has nothing to do with the handsome guy, but he didn't expect to have this ability.

"Okay, since you're so sure, I don't think it's wrong. Since they've walked through this area, we're not afraid of anything... Let's find a place that looks narrow and pass through this place."

Su Peng smiled slightly and said to Adula.

Adulla nodded, and he touched his nose and said, "If you can trust me, let me open the way. I can pursue the fragrance all the way to find them."

“It’s so hard.”

Su Peng nodded and said, but with a smile. Adula looked so hard and really treated himself as a police dog.

Adula received a definite reply, cheered up, kept twitching his nose in the air, and walked in front of the team.

Su Peng and others led the team and followed Adula, heading towards the bottomless hole like cheese.

In this way, Su Peng and others walked to the hole area, walked on it for nearly twenty minutes, and walked a certain distance.

At this time, Su Peng and others were near the center in a relatively narrow place in this hole area. When they walked here, Su Peng and others suddenly heard the entire hole area and made a harsh sound like a whistle.

The sound came from all directions, and it felt even sharper than the whistle of the old steam train. Not only did the guards hug the ears, but even Su Peng frowned slightly.

"What's going on?"

Su Peng looked around and asked.

No one around could answer it, but immediately, Su Peng discovered where the sound came from.

I could only hear sounds constantly underground in the hole area where Su Peng and others were located, as if something was gushing up from the ground.

Ouyang Qing listened for a while, suddenly his face changed and he said, "No! A lot of water is pouring up from below!"

Su Peng also heard this voice at this time, and his face changed slightly.

The sound was similar to the sound of the tide. As soon as you heard it, you knew that a large amount of water was rising from the ground and rising from the holes toward the top.

Among the guards behind, there was a smart man who screamed in shock.

At this time, Su Peng and others had already entered the hole area very deep. They walked for about twenty minutes. At this time, they were in the center. No matter whether they were forward or backward, they could not immediately reach a higher place.

If water really surges up the underground at this time, Su Peng and others will be flooded immediately. Perhaps a few martial arts masters and people in the Central Plains can escape, but these soldiers from Kucha Qiancheng could not get out.

Who made the Western Regions so small that there were water sources and oasis lakes were strictly controlled, and it was impossible to give people the opportunity to go in and swim. The soldiers of the Western Regions were naturally landslides. If anyone came up, these guards would definitely be dead and would definitely be drowned.

These guards were not all fools. Someone soon realized this and suddenly a panic spread among the guards.

"Everyone is calm! What's the use of chaos! Give me peace of mind!"

Seeing these guards, the leader Ganluo turned around and shouted, yelling at the guards behind him.

The guards themselves were a little unruly, and they were quieter after hearing the shouts of Leader Ganluo.

Although these guards themselves cannot swim and will drown if they flood the water, they have already arrived at the center of this place. Anyway, they cannot escape from the left and right, so they did not look like they were running around in scattered ways.

After Su Peng thought of what might have happened, he felt aroused in his heart and shouted to the back: "Everyone is calm! It may not be as bad as he imagined!"

Su Peng and others calmed down the guards for a while, but the water underground did rise.

The water underground rose very quickly. Su Peng estimated that these holes were probably thousands of meters deep, but for some reason, the water level below began to rise like a tide, and the height of thousands of meters increased quickly.

Soon, some narrow holes around Su Peng and others had already started to spray out the fountain-like water column.

This made the guards panic, but Su Peng remained calm and looked at the large holes as wide as meteorite craters.
