349 The Tomb Is Not Safe
Su Meng frowned in confusion. After some thought, she looked at Wen Le and asked, “Did you trample them to death?”
The only reason she could think of was that a centipede had been stomped to death. These things always moved in groups, and if one was killed, the others would follow the scent and rush over.
The reason why she only suspected Wen Le was because Wei Ting had been very careful, and he would not make such a low-level mistake.
Su Meng’s words reminded him of the two centipedes he had killed and he felt guilty.
Now, he was in big trouble again. Wen Le laughed awkwardly before he touched his head in embarrassment and said, “That, I think I stepped on two of them. I was in a hurry and couldn’t see my feet clearly, so I slipped away.”
Su Meng knew it. She did not want to say anything more. It was her bad luck to meet a customer like Wen Le.
This Wen Le was definitely at odds with her. She must take a good look at him when she got out of here.
“What should we do now? Just wait in the tomb? It would be great if those things didn’t bite.” Wen Le leaned against the door and could hear the centipede scuttling on the door. He was so scared that he quickly got up and ran to Su Meng’s side.
Wei Ting shot him a cold glance and said, “Do you dare to walk through them if they don’t bite?” No matter how much he looked at Wen Le, he could not get along with him. It was all his fault for disobeying Su Meng’s orders and messing around. As a result, he caused a bunch of trouble and even hurt Su Meng.
“I don’t dare, I definitely don’t dare.” Wen Le could see Wei Ting’s impatience with him and quickly shut his mouth.
However, he only shut his mouth for a moment. The next moment, they heard Wen Le’s loud shout.
“What now?” Su Meng asked helplessly. Wen le did not look like a tomb raider at all. He was always noisy and did not have any sense of safety.
“Master, those things are coming in!” Wen Le pointed at the crack of the door for Su Meng to see.
Su Meng followed the direction he was pointing at and shone the flashlight in that direction. She was shocked by what she saw. Just as Wen Le had said, the centipedes were slithering into the room through the crack in the door.
Although they were moving very slowly, and only a few at a time, if they stayed here for too long, they would definitely be surrounded by centipedes.
Wei Ting also saw the things that came in and frowned.
“There is usually more than one door in a tomb like this. We can’t leave this door in a short time. We can look for other doors.” Wei Ting put his bag on the ground and gently put Su Meng down. He let her sit on the bag and then got up to search inside.
Su Meng looked at Wen Le and said, “Mr. Wen, this is your job. You should be more familiar with this kind of place than us.”
“Alright, I’ll go look for it immediately!” Wen Le immediately understood Su Meng’s intention and quickly got up to look for it. He was the one who caused this incident, so it was only right for him to go and find it.
He and Wei Ting searched for a while and found something strange on a wall.
As expected, Wei Ting was right. There was another door in the tomb. This door was made exactly like the wall and could not be discovered without looking carefully. The door was very small, only about half a meter high.
Wei Ting opened the door and looked inside. He found that they could only climb out at this height because they were too short to straighten up.
“I’ll go scout first.” Wei Ting didn’t wait for Su Meng’s reply and went straight in.
There was a narrow tunnel behind the door. Wei Ting was tall, so he had to lower his body to get through the tunnel. Fortunately, it was made of stone bricks, so there was nothing messy except for the dust.
Wei Ting crawled all the way forward. After about five or six minutes, he finally saw light in front of him. He followed the light and walked for about two minutes before he finally came to the end.

There was a hole above his head. Wei Ting leaned out and looked outside. He could actually see the outside.
It turned out that the small door led directly to the outside.
Wei Ting had just gone out and didn’t even have time to rest before he turned around and returned.
“How is it?” Wei Ting had just returned when Wen Le asked him impatiently. During the time when Wei Ting went out to explore the path, more than a dozen centipedes had sneaked in. The centipedes were completely different from the first time they saw them. It was as if their temperament had changed. They chased Wen Le and crawled, as if they wanted to bite him.
In the beginning, Wen Le did not want to kill these creatures because he knew that killing one of them would cause trouble. However, the centipedes did not give up and the number of centipedes chasing after him increased. Wen Le had no choice but to trample these centipedes to death.
