After another two weeks, the tunnel was finally dug.
"I remember there's a depression on the right-hand side," Su Zhiruan said, holding the shovel and gazing to the right, deep in thought, "It's quite deep. If we can break through here, we might be able to dig our way out."
But this was a major project; after all, the snow was too thick. Digging haphazardly might cause a collapse from above, and the ground beneath could also give way.
"We have plenty of time, we can dig a little every day," Wen Qingyu said as he slapped the icy ground with his shovel, standing up and adding, "Take it slow."
"Okay," Su Zhiruan placed the shovel aside.
Now, directly opposite the front door on the first floor was a corridor about five meters long that could accommodate two people walking side by side.
