As he said that, the demonic mandrill opened his palm, and Guan Heng took a closer look. It turned out to be a piece of crystal-embedded ore. He asked, "Why, this was also found in the belly of the evil python king?"
"Yes, Mr. Guan." The mandrill nodded and said, "And there are more than one piece. I suspect that this guy built his nest here just to facilitate the swallowing of the crystal-embedded ore."
"Hahaha, it's pretty much what I thought." After hearing this, Guan Heng smiled and nodded, and then asked the white-browed old monkey who came over: "How are you doing? Are there any evil snakes nearby?" The white-browed old monkey and Big Head Yongyi shook his head, indicating that all the evil snakes had been wiped out, and not even a single snake egg could be seen.
"That's good. It's almost as good as I expected. Come with me." With that, Guan Heng waved to them and immediately led everyone to the area where the White-Scale Evil Python King was hiding.
"Hey, this is a good place to hide." After looking around, the mandrill nodded subconsciously and said.
"This place is not just as simple as hiding, but it is also a 'retreat' that can be retreated at any time." Guan Heng said with a slight smile.
"What, a way out?" After hearing this, the Demon Mandrill and the Old Monkey looked at each other, and then asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"Demon Mandrill, the rock wall in this hidden area has a special feature. I wonder if you have noticed it?" As he said that, Guan Heng reached out and patted the rock wall next to him, making a strange sound. Demon Mandrill's ears are very good. In an instant, he whispered: "I know! The rock wall here is very fragile. Could it be that... the White-Scale Evil Python King originally planned to smash the rock wall here and escape?"
"Yes, that's what happened."
"Pa!" When Guan Heng spoke, he suddenly slapped his palm on the rock wall, shattering a large piece of it. Sure enough, the rock wall here is only a few inches thick and can be easily destroyed. If the White Scale Evil With the size of the Python King, it is definitely not a problem to break out a big hole and escape.
"Master Guan, there is one thing I don't understand." Demon Mandrill asked with confusion at this time: "Since the Evil Python King is hiding here and can easily escape, why does he go out and fight us?"
"The following is just my guess, but I guess that's pretty much what happened." Guan Heng said at this moment: "First, the Evil Python King felt sorry for those snake eggs. When he saw that the eggs were destroyed by us, he was so angry that he fainted. That’s why I came out to fight.”
"It makes sense." Hearing this, Demon Mandrill nodded, and Guan Heng continued: "Secondly, the White-Scale Evil Python King is hiding here, not too far from where we are. I guess it So I don’t want to smash the rock wall and escape immediately, just because I’m afraid that if we hear the noise, we will chase after him immediately.”
"That's right." After hearing this, the demon mandrill frowned slightly, then nodded and said: "If I were the evil python king, I'm afraid I would have such concerns, but it's a pity that this guy's temper is too bad. I was too irritable and desperate, and I ruined myself."
"Hahaha, it's actually just our carelessness. Otherwise, we would have been targeting it a long time ago. How would we have given it many opportunities to hide or even escape?" Guan Heng looked at the gap in the shattered rock wall and said, "Ask carefully. The smell of ore is blowing downwind from the tunnel on the opposite side, and it seems that this passage must lead to the mine we want to see."
"Hahaha, what a coincidence. Before his death, the White-Scale Evil Python King finally made some contribution and provided us with a convenient shortcut." Demon Mandrill said with a smile at this time.
"What I'm saying is, let's leave quickly, try to find the mine as soon as possible, and finish the things that need to be solved, because Qinghuang and the princess are still waiting." Guan Heng said, taking the lead to walk forward, Demon Mandrill, Lao The monkey and the big-headed rhinoceros followed closely behind.
Not long after, they reached the middle of the tunnel. Unexpectedly, this tunnel is not short, and it seems that it will take a while to walk, but Guan Heng and the others are not worried, because they have already discovered a lot of crystal-embedded ores on the way, and then let the earth spirit warrior Help put it away.
"The further we go, the more spiritual energy we see in the ores. It seems that the core of the vein of this crystal-embedded ore is in front, and we can walk directly there." Guan Heng said as he walked: "I guess evil The Python King may also often take this road."
"Then has it destroyed all the crystal-embedded ores?" Demonic Mandrill said worriedly, "If that's the case, we won't be able to pick up anything good when we get there?"
"Hehehe, there's no need to worry about this at all."
"Pa!" Guan Heng said, suddenly reached out and broke off a piece of ore from the rock wall next to him, threw it to the Demon Mandrill, and said: "Are the things you just found in the belly of the Evil Python King similar to this? Quality ore?”
"Yes!" After hearing this, Demon Mandrill nodded, and Guan Heng said: "That's right. This explains one thing. The Evil Python King only moves in the nearby area. For some reason, it There is no core area of the ore vein ahead.”
"That's right, otherwise this guy would have better ores in his belly, and those ores are only found around the core of the veins." Demon Mandrill suddenly realized this, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Guan Heng said again: "By the way, there is a more important reason."
"Huh? What's the reason?" Upon hearing this, the demon mandrill immediately asked. Guan Heng explained: "Look at the width of the surrounding tunnels. It's only enough for us to barely walk together. The body of the Evil Python King can't get through at all!"
"Ah?!" As soon as Guan Heng said these words, Mandrill immediately slapped himself on the forehead: "Oh, I didn't notice such an obvious place, how stupid I was."
"Hehehe, okay, if you observe more in the future, you will also find these details." Guan Heng said lightly, then looked at the tunnel ahead, and then continued: "It looks like we will be there soon. The tunnel is at the end, and I don’t know if I can see the core of the mine immediately after exiting here.”
"It should be possible, right?" Demon Mandrill mumbled, "That's what I think anyway."
"I hope so, otherwise we'll have to find another way to get there."
"Hua la la... hula la..." At this moment, the sound of turning earth and rocks suddenly came from the front, Guan Heng said casually: "It should be that the earth spirit warriors who have reached the end of the tunnel are continuing to dig, let's go and have a look. "... After a few breaths, Guan Heng brought the mandrill and two monkeys to the front. Sure enough, he saw the earth spirit warriors wielding spades and pickaxes and digging into the soil. Guan Heng nodded and said, "Well, it looks like The soil here is not thick, so as long as you give them a dozen breaths of time, they should be able to dig through it."
"Swiss, swish, swish, swish..." Guan Henggang said this, and suddenly heard a series of strange sounds coming from above his head.
