Chapter 790
"It's nothing more than scaring us that there is something dirty inside, trying to scare us away, and then come back and take away the contents privately." Not to be outdone, the tomb robber stared angrily.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Wang Jinpeng was naturally unhappy seeing his brother being suspected. "You don't think we lack your money, do you?"
"Whatever you want." The tomb robber felt unhappy and had no intention of arguing with them.
He imitated Xu Ning and tied a rope around his body, then hung him down.
He also said to Lao Hei: "Boss, wait for us above, don't let them harm us."
Lao Hei didn't answer, but looked into the thief's cave expressionlessly.
Xu Ning has not yet woken up from the shock. The distance given to him by the green lantern in the darkness is too deep.
"There are no ghosts in the world, don't be afraid." Lin Ran comforted softly.
But he was relatively calm and didn't yell in that situation.
Liu Jingfeng also squatted down, handed him a bottle of water, and asked with a smile: "We called you from above, why didn't you respond?"
Xu Ning grabbed the water and poured it down his throat. After drinking the water, he felt better.
He asked depressedly: "That monster has been staring at me, and I didn't dare to move at all."
"What kind of monster is it?" Lin Ran became curious.
At this moment, the voices of the two previous tomb robbers came from below the robbery cave.
"Boss, let's just say they are pretending. There is nothing down there."
But as soon as his voice came out, the people next to him who went down with him started shouting.
"Tianming, what's next to you!"
Their conversation was loud and echoed along the entrance of the cave, and everyone could hear it clearly.
Then, a wailing sound came, and the rope continued to vibrate.
"Quick, pull them up!" Lin Ran was the quickest to react and stepped forward to help Lao Hei pull the rope.
Lao Hei and Hong Wu were their accomplices, but they were frightened by the unexpected situation and were distracted for a while.
Under Lin Ran's reminder, he pulled the rope back with all his strength.
The screams in the cave became louder and louder, and they kept shouting for help!
The person who went down behind him was quickly pulled up and ran away as if he was dead.
The rope in Lao Hei's hand seemed to be dragged into the hole by some huge force.
Lin Ran quickly hugged his body.
Good guy, Lin Ran could feel Lao Hei's physical fitness. All the muscles in his body were hard.
Even so, he gradually lost his center of gravity and was about to fall to the ground.
Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning didn't care about anything else. They stepped forward to help and held the rope.
This feeling is like catching a big fish.
The big fish was fighting to the death with them, and the screams inside were getting louder and louder.
But after a while, they discovered that the rope was broken.
Several people fell to the ground at the same time, and there were obvious blood stains on the other end of the rope.
Lao Hei and his three remaining companions suddenly turned pale.
Xu Ning wasn't trying to scare them, there were indeed monsters down there.
After falling down, Lin Ran immediately got up and looked inside with a flashlight.
He only saw a huge white figure rolling up the body of the tomb robber who had just descended.
Look at the patterns and skin on its body...
Lin Ran felt that it must be a reptile.
Others also reacted and followed to the hole to check.
Lin Ran pointed at the white figure and said, "Your companion should be eaten by it."
You can also clearly see the height of the Thief's Cave, which is a full ten meters high.
"Damn it!" When Lao Hei saw his companion being entangled by the monster, he wanted to rush down, but Lin Ran grabbed his wrist.
"Didn't you realize its power just now?" Lin Ran lowered his voice.
The four strongest of them could not drag the person up, which shows the level of power of the monster they were wrestling with.
"Then what should we do? We can't watch Tianming die!" Lao Hei actually showed a worried look.
As expected of the leader of the team, in addition to cold interests, he still has feelings.
The white figure dragged the tomb robber's body away.
Except for Lao Hei, everyone else has lingering fears.
"Mr. Lin, what is that?"
Everyone was at a loss and had no choice but to turn to Lin Ran for help.
Lin Ran thought for a moment and asked Hong Wu about the scene he had just seen.
"Mr. Hong, do you think it looks like a snake?"
After being reminded by Lin Ran, Hong Wu showed an expression of realization, but then he became more confused: "It does look a bit like a snake, but is there such a big snake?"
They had heard about the python in the newspaper, which was about ten meters long.
But they had never seen it with their own eyes, so they were a little shocked when they saw it.
"Boss, let's go back." Another companion said.
Lao Hei snorted, "You guys want to run away like this?"
Although Tian Ming made his own decision and ventured into the cave, it was a bit arrogant.
But after all, he is a member of his team, and he must be responsible for Tianming's safety.
"You guys wait up there, I'll go down and take a look." Lao Hei took out a knife from his backpack and seemed to want to go down and fight the giant snake.
His courage was commendable, but Lin Ran didn't approve of his behavior.
"Don't stop me." Lao Hei, who was pulled by Lin Ran, said dissatisfiedly.
"He was not in a hurry to eat Tianming, but dragged him away. He probably had other purposes. I don't think his life is in danger for the time being." Lin Ran said.
Usually the prey is dragged away just to feed the baby, or to store food.
Hearing that they would be eaten, others subconsciously wanted to step back.
"What should I do?" Lao Hei said, "I can't let my men sacrifice in vain."
"To be honest, he deserves it." Huang Hao muttered from the side, "Our people said that there is danger down there, but he still doesn't believe it and insists on going down to die. By the way, why did another guy escape?"
Huang Hao couldn't stand the deserters the most. His brother who had been through life and death was dragged away by a monster. Without blinking an eye, he crawled out of the cave and ran away.
Lin Ran thought for a while.
The monster was probably the main reason why the previous tomb raiding team gave up going to the tomb.
If it were a snake, it wouldn't be difficult at all at this height.
But it didn't come out, and its head was never seen.
This may mean that it is afraid of light.
Lin Ran and the others had dealt with snakes a lot and knew that snakes were afraid of fire.
"Let's go down together. By the way, Brother Liu, do you have any torches?" Lin Ran asked Liu Jingfeng.
Wang Jinpeng immediately rummaged through his backpack, took out two torches, and said, "I brought them with me. What do you want these for?"
Lin Ran took the torch and took the matches.
"Let's go down together." Lin Ran tied the rope around his waist.
Seeing this scene, Lao Hei showed an expression of disbelief.
"Come down with me?"
"Yes, if one person can't deal with them, the two of us should be able to do it."
