C342 End of tunnel

However, it was impossible for Xia Lei to personally build a hydroelectric plant for White Huns Tribe. If that happened, he didn't know how long he would have to stay here before returning to his home. Putting aside the fact that he couldn't afford to waste so much time, he couldn't afford the risk of being discovered by the American CIA.    

    

However, with the equipment and the two million dollars that Xia Lei had given him, it would be extremely easy for White Huns Tribe to build a small hydro power station. In Afghanistan, money can buy you even your life, not to mention the technicians involved.    

    

Moreover, building a hydroelectric station only required digging a side channel, building a dam on the side channel, installing the generator, and then opening the side channel and the main channel to bring the water over. In fact, it wasn't really a complicated matter.    

    

Xia Lei explained the plan to build a hydropower station to Syrani from his pillow. Syrani was too lazy to think about it, so he just nodded his head and agreed. The reason why she didn't say anything was because she really didn't have the time to speak with her little mouth ?    

    

The next morning, Syrani brought a large group of female warriors to test their spears. Xia Lei went to the ruins of the White Horse City by himself. This time he took a horse and all the tools he needed.    

    

With the tools of 101 rounds of aerial attacks, Xia Lei's digging speed was obviously faster. He digs horizontally, leaving a portion of the soil in the pit, slanting to form a cushion and building a slope. The excess soil was transported from the slope to the ground and piled up.    

    

On this day, he had dug five meters horizontally, and there was an extra tunnel-like existence in the original big pit. It was enough for him to walk inside with his back bent. The tunnel he had dug was also elaborate, with a narrow bottom, a triangular shape. In this way, the walls on both sides of the tunnel could serve as a support for the ceiling and prevent it from collapsing.    

    

In the tunnel, Xia Lei put down the shovel, and then he used the flashlight on his safety helmet to stab the wall with Luo Yang's shovel. Luoyang shovels would definitely not be able to dig as much as ordinary shovels, but exploring the layers of earth was actually a very good tool. Otherwise, Luoyang Shovel wouldn't have become an indispensable tool for tomb robbers.    

    

Pulling out the almost rounded Luo Yang Shovel, Xia Lei's gaze landed on the soil that Luo Yang Shovel had brought out. His heart immediately became excited.    

    

The tail of the Loyang Shovel was black, but there was a section of gray on the head. It was also less dense than the black soil on the tail. The greyish white soil was artificially filled, not a natural soil layer. This meant that he had already dug closer to his target!    

    

Xia Lei suppressed his excitement and put down his Luoyang Shovel. He looked straight at the wall in front of him and his left eye twitched, awakening his ability to see through.    

    

During these three days of digging, Xia Lei had actually always been using his clairvoyance to search for a target underground. But looking at the target beneath the ground, his line of sight had to penetrate layers of soil and the rocks within the soil, which used up a lot of energy. Furthermore, the depth of his eyes could only reach two meters, which was far from enough. Therefore, the method he used was to take a look every time he dug to a certain depth. After there was no result, he would then continue digging.    

    

The result of the scan was out very quickly. In front of him, about two meters away, was a stone slab lying in the dirt. Xia Lei shifted his gaze, and saw the other stone tablets. They were arranged vertically, one by one, and looked like artificial stone walls of a passage.    

    

"What's in the passage? Where does it go? " Xia Lei's heart was filled with curiosity, he then tried to look through the stone tablets, but he failed this time. The stone slab was just two meters away. His line of sight penetrated through the two meter thick soil to see the stone slab, but he was no longer able to see through the stone slab to see what was behind it.    

    

Xia Lei finished his perspective, then picked up his shovel and prepared to dig further.    

    

"Xia!" Where are you? " Syrani's voice came from outside the pit.    

    

"I'm inside." Xia Lei replied as he crawled out. When he came out, he realized that the sky was already very dark.    

    

"Did you find anything?"    

    

Xia Lei shook his head, "Nothing."    

    

"Let's dig tomorrow. It's almost dark, so let's go home for dinner." Syrani laughed and said: "I killed a sheep, and am still stewing in the pot. I can go back and eat them."    

    

"Why do you want to slaughter sheep? "So extravagant."    

    

"You've worked so hard these past few days, can I help you heal up?" You know, I don't want you to get tired. " Syrani said with an evil smile.    

    

Xia Lei knew what she was hinting at, but this hint also made his legs feel a little uncomfortable, and his waist felt a little sore. There is an old saying that women are fields, men are cattle, there has always been only tired cattle, no plowed fields. This old saying could not be more suitable to describe his current situation. Facing Syrani, this fertile land, this cow felt weak.    

    

Xia Lei threw the shovel into the tunnel, without bothering to pick up the other tools, he climbed up the slope he built.    

    

"Will it be okay to leave it here?" Xia Lei said.    

    

"No problem, no one will come to this place." Syrani held Xia Lei's arm, "This place is our holy land, other than you, if anyone dares to come in here, they are dead."    

    

"Alright, then I'll leave all the tools here. I can't be bothered to bring them back tomorrow. Sorry for the trouble." Xia Lei and Syrani chatted as they walked, gradually getting further and further away.    

    

Just as Xia Lei and his group were about to leave the ruins, a figure quietly walked out from a patch of forest. She wore a black hood over her head and a black bodice. Her body was curved forward and backward, her legs were long and tall, and she was very sexy. Her face couldn't be seen, but judging by her height and figure, she wasn't an Afghan. She was a Western or Eastern European woman.    

    

The woman carefully approached the pit and looked back at the direction that Xia Lei and Syrani had left in. Then, she sneaked into the pit that Xia Lei had dug and rummaged through it. After rummaging for a while, she let out a disappointed sigh and said to a miniature communicator, "No, the compass is not here. He took it."    

    

A man's voice came through the communicator, "It's fine if you take it, but come back. You don't need to stay any longer." Watch out for your tracks. He's mature. He'll find out. "    

    

The woman smiled wryly, "I told you earlier, he wouldn't put the compass there. He's not a little kid that loses everything."    

    

"By the way, to what extent did he dig?" A man's voice.    

    

The woman said, "The pit is three meters deep, and the tunnel is horizontal..." The woman leaned over to the tunnel entrance and shone her flashlight into it, then said, "The tunnel is five meters deep, but there's nothing. I don't know how deep we'll have to dig. I think he's in a lot of trouble himself. "    

    

"Alright, I understand. Come back." The man cut off the communication.    

    

The woman did not leave immediately. She took out a pocket-sized camera and took a few pictures of the tunnel that Xia Lei had dug, then retreated back to the ground to take a few more pictures of the pit and his surroundings. After taking the picture, she carefully cleaned up all the traces she left behind before disappearing into the night.    

    

In the tribe, Xia Lei was also holding a camera provided by the 101 bureau as he took photos of the ancient books.    

    

"What for? "A broken book." Syrani said loudly: "If you like it, it's yours."    

    

"Really?" Xia Lei was very excited. Although he already knew the contents of the ancient book, he wanted to bring the contents of the ancient book back to Serenity. Serenity was an expert in this field, so he might be able to sort out some important clues, which was why he took pictures of the ancient book. If Syrani wanted to give him the ancient book, he would naturally be happy. Studying things would definitely be better than studying photos.    

    

"What's the real deal?" Even I am yours in this room. Do you think I would be reluctant to part with a book that no one has read? " Syrani's tone made him look like a complete wastrel.    

    

Xia Lei laughed, "Then I will keep it, after I finish studying it, I will bring it back to you."    

    

"Take a picture of me."    

    

"Take your picture?"    

    

"Yeah, I've never taken a photo in my life before." Syrani blinked her big eyes at Xia Lei, "You want to take that kind of bad picture of me? I'll keep it for you to see."    

    

Xia Lei, "..."    

    

Syrani's handmade pajamas quietly fell onto the wooden floor. She had a childish face and her body was snow-white, like a natural beauty.    

    

Ka ka ka, the lights of the cameras were flickering non-stop inside the cabin that was filled with an exotic feeling, while Syrani's posture also kept changing non-stop ?    

    

The next morning, Xia Lei rode his horse to the ruins of the White Horse City. Arriving at the pit, he jumped down from the horse's back and subconsciously rubbed his sore waist with a bitter smile, "Hopefully it will be done today. If I stay here any longer, I will probably die of exhaustion. She is simply a juicer."    

    

Xia Lei tied the horse to a rock and went down into the pit. Just as he was about to enter the tunnel, his gaze suddenly stopped at a patch of ground beside the tunnel.    

    

There was a faint mark on the ground. It looked like a footprint left by an animal.    

    

Xia Lei's heart was filled with vigilance. His left eye slightly twitched, and the traces left on the ground immediately became magnified, becoming incomparably clear.    

    

Under the microscopic mode, not only was he able to see the trace in his left eye, he could even clearly see the gap between the sand and the sand.    

    

Soon, he ended the microcosm of his left eye and his mood became heavy, "These are most likely the footprints of a person, and they were purposely erased. It's just that it wasn't completely erased." Syrani did not come down to the pit yesterday. Could it be someone else from the tribe? If it's someone from the tribe, then they would definitely leave footprints on the slope. Why isn't there one? "    

    

No matter how he thought about it, he was unable to make a final decision, so Xia Lei temporarily tossed it aside. He dived into the tunnel and dug with his spade.    

    

Although he no longer thought about the footprints anymore, the incomplete and blurry footprint alerted him. Every time he moved the soil to the pit, he would use his far-sighted ability to scout the surroundings. However, he did not discover anything.    

    

Two hours later, the last two meters of the tunnel were dug up and a stone slab appeared at the end of the tunnel.    

    

What was behind the stone slab?    

    

Xia Lei moved closer to the stone slab, and his left eye quietly pierced through it.
