Chapter 403: "Gold" Tower!

A big hole in the swimming pool?

Several people were confused by Clark McCann's words. Even if it was an earthquake, the magnitude of the earthquake was not too big. There was no crack in the wall of the house. How could it be possible to shake the swimming pool out of a big hole?

After steadying his mind and confirming that the earthquake would not continue, Yang Jing took the lead and walked towards the swimming pool.

Sure enough, the swimming pool full of clean water now has no water at all. At the corner of the swimming pool, a large hole with a diameter of about one and a half meters appeared. It was dark and bulging, like the open mouth of a devil.

"What's going on here? Is the underground here empty? We are half a mountainside here!" Yang Jing looked at the big hole and asked in disbelief.

John Bruno on the side said: "Boss, this is hard to say. San Francisco itself belongs to the hilly area. The geological structure here is very complicated. No one knows what is going on under this land. Maybe we are in this one. In places, there was a hole in the ground, but I’m not sure, and then the earthquake shook the upper layer of the hole open."

Yang Jing shook his head and said, "That's not right. There were frequent earthquakes in San Francisco before, so why didn't you see a big hole in this place?"

George Bruce nodded and said, "Boss, what John said is very reasonable. This villa area was developed in recent years. This house is also a new house. No one has lived in it before. Mr. Zhao bought this villa. After giving it to you, you are the first resident. So the swimming pool here has been unused. We only used this swimming pool after we came. Perhaps the cavity itself is already at a balance point, and we go to the swimming pool. With so much water added to the middle, the hundreds of tons of water pressure at this position, coupled with the earthquake, suddenly broke the balance, so..." George Bruce spread his hands.

Yang Jing patted his head and said, "This is a swimming pool. What if this house is also located on this hollow? Wouldn't it be that when an earthquake occurs, even the house has to sink? That's a terrible thing. ! No, this house can't be bought, and the developer has to retire!"

Yang Jing's words are not nonsense. Whoever learns that his house is actually located in a large hollow, it is estimated that no one can bear it.

If this void collapses, it would be a life-threatening thing.

Chris Barton took out a flashlight, squatted on the edge of the swimming pool and took a photo of the hole. He picked up a small stone and threw it down. Hearing the sound of the stone moving inside, he said: "BOSS The hole underneath should not be too big, but it should be quite deep, and the hole does not seem to go straight up and down, something seems to be blocking it."

Hearing Chris said this, the curiosity of several people was aroused, and at least Yang Jing stopped complaining.

Yang Jing leaned over, stretched his head and looked down. After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't see what it looked like inside.

Chris took a flashlight to take a picture of the periphery of the big hole, and then jumped directly under the swimming pool, squatting on the edge of the big hole and looking down again.

"What's the matter?" Yang Jing asked.

"It seems... as if there is a channel leading to other directions at six or seven meters below. John, find a bright flashlight. The light of this flashlight is too weak to see clearly."

John Bruno quickly ran into the house, and after a while he ran over with a few bright flashlights. At the same time, this guy also carried a bundle of static ropes.

Yang Jing looked at this guy carrying the rope, and asked a little puzzled: "John, do you still want to go down and take a look?"

John Bruno threw the rope, and then one person handed a bright flashlight and said to Yang Jing with a smile: "Boss, aren't you interested in the following? Anyway, I am quite curious about the following. If the situation permits, I I really want to go down and take a look."

Yang Jing helplessly shook his head and gestured to this guy with a thumbing gesture.

Chris changed the flashlight and looked at it, and then said: "Boss, this hole shouldn't be formed naturally, it seems to have been dug by hand. It's just that for some reason, the hole hasn't been dug to the end. But it's six or seven meters below. Location, there is also a passage, and the steps inside can be seen from here."

After a pause, Chris continued: "You all come down. The hole around this hole should be very strong and not hollow."

Yang Jing jumped down after hearing Chris' confirmation.

"BOSS, it’s no wonder the earthquake shook out a hole here. Look at the traces of the hole. In fact, there is only a layer of rock more than 20 centimeters at the bottom of the swimming pool and the top of the hole. This earthquake directly gave this layer of rock. It was shaken, and then under the pressure of water, it became like this."

Yang Jing took a flashlight to illuminate the edge of the hole and nodded. His swimming pool is used for swimming and diving. The deepest part of the hole is 3.5 meters, and next to it is a three-meter high diving platform. The water is so deep to prevent people from jumping to the bottom of the swimming pool when diving.

Through the reflection of the bright flashlight, one can clearly see that six or seven meters below the cave, there is an oblique downward passage. The most important thing is that this oblique downward passage actually has steps.

Seeing this scene, Yang Jing couldn't help but move. It is false to say that it is not curiosity. When anyone sees this situation, it is estimated that they want to figure out what is going on below.

"Let’s wait for a while and make sure there are no aftershocks. In case there are aftershocks just after going down, maybe we will be buried in it!" Although he was curious about what was below, Yang Jing shook his head and vetoed it immediately. Go down. Just after the earthquake occurred, I was still drilling underground at this time. This is not because the old birthday star eats arsenic, and thinks he lives for a long time!

Chris looked at the big hole and asked, "Would you like to find something to cover this hole?"

Yang Jing looked around and shook his head, "No, we have a detached courtyard here. There are so many trees around the courtyard. People outside can't see it here."

Several people returned to the house. George Bruce called the local seismic station and asked if aftershocks would occur. Others helped Yang Jing pick up lunch.

After lunch, after confirming that there would be no aftershocks, the five people immediately became fully armed. Weapons, lighting, and life-sustaining supplies were all prepared. Then they tied a main and a pair of static ropes to the diving platform next to the swimming pool. Go up, and then drilled down from that big hole.

Clark McCann is a tall man, and he has more experience in burrowing, so he started with John Bruno in second place, Yang Jing in the middle, followed by Chris and George Bruce.

Clark McCann quickly landed on the stepped passage leading to the diagonally downwards. After going down, he felt a little bit, and then took off his gas mask and shouted to the top: "Come down, the air is okay. This channel should be connected to the outside world, and the flow of air can be felt in it."

After a few people got down, Yang Jing said: "Let's not go down first. Let's go in another direction first to see where this passage leads to."

This passage is quite spacious, more than two meters high, even the tall Clark McCann can walk straight up here. Hearing what Yang Jing said, Chris turned and walked in the other direction, but after a short time, the passage in front was completely cut off.

Some collapsed rocks and mud sealed the passage tightly, but judging from the direction and upward trend of the passage, the passage should lead directly to the ground, but I don’t know why it was blocked.

Clark grabbed the rocks and observed it for a while before he said: "It should have been a long time since it collapsed. Look, some tree roots have grown here."

"Then go back, I won't waste time here," Yang Jing said, and several people immediately turned their heads and walked in the direction they came.

When he walked under the big hole, Chris felt it again and said: "There should be a passage to the outside below, and the air is discharged upward from here, which is enough to explain this."

George Bruce nodded his nose and said with a smile: "It smells like the sea. Could it be that the bottom is straight to the sea?"

Yang Jing also smiled and said, "It's best to go directly to the Dragon Palace of Lord Dragon. Oh, by the way, you don't recognize Lord Dragon. What do you recognize is Poseidon, the sea god."

Clark quipped: "Boss, we are certified atheists, we believe in Engels..." Several people laughed.

While talking and laughing, they walked down cautiously, and as they walked, everyone discovered that the downward passage turned out to be spiral, and as they went down, everyone heard the sound of the waves.

After walking down for several minutes, it is estimated that I have reached the bottom of this hill, and a huge space is finally presented in front of everyone.

Just as George Bruno had just guessed~www.readwn.com~ There is sea water in this huge underground space, and there should be an underpass connecting with the Pacific Ocean outside. In addition, on the rock wall on the west side of this space, some dappled light penetrated in. Obviously, this rock wall should be the cliff below Yang Jing's house.

When everyone concentrated their lights on the east and north sides of this space, they couldn't help but take a breath.

I saw dozens of totem poles of different shapes and sizes on the east side of this space. In the middle of these totem poles, there is a reduced version of the pyramid.

Although this pyramid is only seven or eight meters high, its shape is a typical Mayan pyramid shape. On the rock wall behind the pyramid, there is a decoration similar to the sun.

The shape of the pyramid and the sun decoration is nothing. The most important thing is that these two things are illuminated with light, and they even vaguely reflect a yellow metallic luster...

Clark muttered to himself dullly: "God Jesus, is this pyramid really made of gold?"

PS: The high fever has subsided, but the low fever continues, and it is uncomfortable...
