Chapter 19 Ancient Tomb Exploration

"when……"

"Oh, I..."

Xiao Jian woke up from the iron cage.

Since he fell asleep next to the big-mouthed flower yesterday, when he fell asleep, the big-mouthed flower shook him back and forth, and he was finally shaken down.

The back of his head hit the iron pipe, making a crisp collision sound.

How do you say that?

Does it sound like a good start?

"...I really am."

Xiao Jian held the back of his head, wanting to curse in pain.

"I must find a bed that I can sleep on safely! Hiss..."

But it is not difficult to get a bed. After all, the sofa that Xiao Jian worked so hard to carry can also be used as a bed.

But it’s much more difficult to sleep peacefully.

Zombies attack day and night. If you want to sleep peacefully, you must at least have defenses strong enough to automatically defend against all incoming zombies.

Judging from Xiao Jian's small courtyard, which doesn't even have a courtyard wall, this is almost impossible.

As for the square meter in front of the old house... Xiao Jian didn't dare to live in it.

After all, no one stipulates that zombies must attack from the direction of the courtyard gate.

With the attack power of zombies, if they choose to attack from the direction of the old house, Xiao Jian has no doubt that they have the ability to tear down the wall of the old house and then attack directly from behind him.

Just because they don't do it now doesn't mean they won't do it in the future.

After all, zombie dogs that attack from the side have appeared, so what’s impossible about zombies that attack from behind?

Therefore, for Xiao Jian now, a good night's sleep is actually a very luxurious wish.

"Why……"

Xiao Jian also knew how unrealistic his idea was, so he got out of the half-dismantled cage and began to prepare for a day of labor.

I don't know when it started, but the "ancient tomb" dug out by the gravediggers last night no longer "refreshes" zombies.

The batch of small spray mushrooms planted behind Tie Ju Ma also closed their eyes one by one and were fast asleep.

According to the knowledge that the "note" instilled in Xiao Jian, the mushroom servants seemed to sleep when there was sunlight, and only became energetic when there was no sunlight.

In other words, if the zombies come during the day, the only combat power Xiao Jian has is the pea shooters, and the little mushrooms will not participate in the battle during the day.

In this case, Xiao Jian simply put away all the small spray mushrooms.

Each of the small spray mushrooms turned into cards again under Xiao Jian's touch, and they could be placed when needed.

After all, the placement of small spray mushrooms does not require sunlight, so even if you put them away again, there will be no loss.

Of course, the Peashooter can also be put away, but it will need to consume the sunlight value again when it is placed again.

Although Xiao Jian now has too much sunlight to use up every day, he has no need to adjust the position of the plants, so he just leaves it like that.

After putting away all the small spray mushrooms, Xiao Jian took the relic [Wolf Fang Necklace] he had obtained before and took a look at his attributes:

2 attack, 0 defense, 3 blood.

Xiao Jian, who felt he was armed to the teeth, picked up a beveled iron pipe and slowly moved towards the huge tombstone.

It wasn't until he walked into this tombstone that Xiao Jian saw that there was a countdown on it.

911

910

…

Xiao Jian looked at the "" symbol in confusion.

This countdown has the same format as the previous countdown above the windmill clover's head, but with different symbols.

He himself uses "", which is sunlight value, but obviously the zombies use another energy system.

Although he doesn't know what "" means, this does not prevent Xiao Jian from understanding the meaning of this countdown.

Obviously, the countdown above its head is more than 900 minutes, which means that this tombstone will last about 15 hours.

After walking around a few times to make sure there was no danger, Xiao Jian looked into the pit dug by the gravedigger.

He was actually very curious, could the zombies really be "spawned" out of thin air?

"Huh?"

Xiao Jian's eyes widened... He actually found stone steps at the bottom of the pit! !

The stone steps were very deep and pitch black without any light.

Xiao Jian threw a stone into the darkness... The fading echo showed that there should be a large space below.

For a moment, he fell into self-doubt—could it be that there was an ancient tomb under the backyard of the old house! ?

With three parts suspicion, two parts curiosity and a lot of vigilance, Xiao Jian raised his legs... and returned to the bonfire, lighting a fire to cook some porridge and drink it.

Anyway, it will take at least ten hours for the tombstone to disappear. Even if you want to explore, there is no rush. It is better to have a full stomach first.

While waiting for the porridge to be cooked, Xiao Jian was not idle. He ran to the courtyard gate and checked the parapet. He planned to repair the parapet that was damaged by the zombies last night.

Seeing the gap in the parapet, Xiao Jian couldn't help but smacked his lips.

Isn't this zombie's strength too great? That big rock that couldn't be broken was actually smashed into pieces by these zombies!

The iron pipe piles used as reinforcing ribs were in a radial trumpet shape and had completely and completely turned into a pile of scrap iron.

Xiao Jian picked out the twisted iron pipes, replaced several new iron pipes and drove them into the soil. Then he dug rocks from the pit next to them and moved them to build the wall.

Half an hour later, the parapet repairs were completed, and the air was filled with the fragrance of rice.

Xiao Jian took a bag of sugar, stirred it into the rice porridge, and drank it with an "electric" kettle.

After finishing the porridge, Xiao Jian pulled a wooden stool leg, and picked a few easy-to-burn clothes from the anchor's pile and rolled them on the stool leg.

This is a simple torch.

Considering that there might not be enough space in the "tomb", Xiao Jian did not use the iron pipe as a weapon, but replaced it with a fire axe.

"Huh..."

Xiao Jian took a deep breath, then held the torch and slowly walked down the stone steps.

In fact, Xiao Jian could not come down to explore. When the time is up, maybe this "tomb" will disappear by itself.

But just like the office building revealed by the windmill clover blowing away the fog before.

If you don't explore, you can only guard such a small world and be trapped.

And going out to explore, no matter what you gain, is better than sitting in the city of sorrow without any gain.

Besides, Xiao Jian still has 13 resource cards and 7 small mushrooms in his hand!

Even if something unexpected happens, just spend a few resource cards to exchange for a big golden ball and let it roll down the stone steps... Then, not to mention monsters, even the stone steps can become a stone slide.

Xiao Jian held a torch in his left hand, a fire axe in his right hand, a relic [wolf tooth necklace] with +2 attack on his neck, and a stack of cards in his pocket that he could use at any time. He was very alert and walked down the steps slowly.

"Huh..."

There seemed to be a breeze.

The torch shook, but it didn't go out.

This means that there is air circulation below, at least it can maintain the most basic oxygen needs.

Gradually, Xiao Jian slowly went deeper into the dark tomb...
