In the dark and spacious cave, Ke Kai was holding a torch high and leading a group of men to explore the large cave like a prairie.
As his men said, there were no living creatures in the cave at all, and it was so big that it almost hollowed out the entire mountain range.
At this moment, a forest stood in front of Kekai and others. The strange thing was that the trees in front of them were not green or blue, but black.
Also, the trees are very smooth, without leaves or branches, very hard, and the parts that go up are sharper.
The man standing next to Ke Kai said: "Boss, have you ever felt that the ground under our feet has become much harder, and what are these in front of us? It doesn't seem to be trees."
Kekai took the torch from the man's hand and looked carefully at the dark trees blocking him in the weak firelight. He was very puzzled and said: "That's not right. The trees outside are all blue. Why are they here?" Black?"
"Have you noticed that this tree is too smooth? There are no cracks on the surface, as if it has been specially polished."
Someone immediately reminded: "Boss, this cave is a bit weird. Should we exit first?"
"Don't worry, although this forest is a bit weird, no one should have been here..." Before Kekai could finish his words, he heard a thumping sound, which made his face change in fright.
After a while, the thumping sound still did not stop, and Kekai's men panicked and said: "Boss, I think we'd better withdraw."
Before Kekai could speak, an exclamation suddenly came from the crowd: "Do you feel it? The ground beneath our feet is moving."
After Kekai heard everyone's panic, he sternly rebuked: "Nonsense! How could the ground move!"
"Don't be surprised. This is just an ordinary cave. Don't scare yourself."
Although he also felt that the ground was indeed moving, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he had to speak out to dispel everyone's concerns.
Because he felt that there was a high probability that there would be treasures ahead, especially the place where the plopping sound was made.
A monk with a torch in his hand persuaded him earnestly: "Boss, you have to think clearly. It is still too late for us to exit now. Once we go deep into the cave, it will be difficult for us to retreat when we encounter danger."
Someone echoed: "Yes, boss, there are too many weird things here. It's not safe to continue moving forward."
Kekai immediately said: "Wealth can be found in danger! Listen to the thumping sound in front of you. I'm sure there must be a treasure hidden there."
"As long as we get there, the treasure will be ours. Maybe the colorful stone is hidden here."
No one has been here before, which makes Kekai conclude that there is a treasure ahead, and the value must be very high. Even if it is not a seven-colored stone, it should be a multi-colored stone.
In any case, all the colored stones are hidden by people from the Royal Kong Chamber of Commerce. No one can be sure that they will not hide the most precious treasures here, and then deliberately use plopping noises to intimidate people who enter the cave to hunt for treasures.
Someone was deeply confused and said: "Boss, this... is this possible?"
Kekai said: "Is there anything impossible! I don't believe that people from the Royal Sky Chamber of Commerce would hide all colored stones in the bodies of monsters."
The man said again: "Having said that, this place is too mysterious, and I have a vague feeling about it.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
I have a hunch that as long as we continue to go deeper, danger will follow. "
Kekai was not angry at all, he said calmly: "These are all tricks of the Huangkong Chamber of Commerce, specially used to scare people. The timid people dare not even come in. Only the bold and careful people can get the treasures here. "
"We finally got here, so we can't return empty-handed, right? We can't defeat the monsters outside, so we can only pick up some rags. Now is an opportunity."
After hearing what he said, those who were thinking of leaving also gave up the idea of exiting the cave and prepared to search the cave with Kekai.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ke Kai immediately said: "Okay, let's go!"
After saying this, he took the torch in his hand and walked alone in front to clear the way for his men.
Soon, they entered the dense black woods, but the road ahead became narrower, and the thumping sound became clearer.
Obviously, they were one step closer to their destination, but they still had not left the dark forest.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, one of Kekai's men dropped the torch in his hand into the dark abyss, perhaps because he was too panicked.
It was precisely because of that torch that Kekai and others saw some huge buildings, like palaces.
The man standing behind Kekai stood on the cliff, looking down at the abyss at his feet, and said with joy: "Boss, there seems to be a palace down here, should we go down and take a look?"
Kekai, who was holding a torch, looked down for a long time and found that the cliff at his feet was very steep. He immediately said: "This place is too steep. I don't know how high it is from here to the bottom... Find a rope first." "
Kekai tied one end of the rope to a tree and threw the other end into the abyss. He grabbed the rope and slid down bit by bit against the stone wall.
After all of them landed smoothly, not only was the ground under their feet different from the one above, but even the thumping sound was much smaller.
Kekai glanced at the dim surroundings and said to his men: "Let's all search carefully and knock on the surrounding stone walls to see if there is anything like a stone door."
A monk stood there for a moment, then looked up somewhere and said: "Boss, do you feel that it is much warmer here than above, as if a warm wind is blowing down from a high place. "
Kekai said: "Don't worry about where the warm air is blowing from. Let's look for it quickly to see if there is the treasure we want."
After an unknown amount of time, Ke Kai and his men did not see any stone gates, which made him very confused.
Soon, many people were so tired that they sat on the ground, and some were digging into the surrounding stone walls with sharp tools.
The man sitting next to Ke Kai said: "Boss, tell me, there are no treasures here."
Kekai looked at the people around him who were excavating the stone wall and said, "Let them dig and see first. Maybe they will gain something..."
Before he finished speaking, doubtful voices came from the people excavating the stone wall.
A monk threw away the sharp weapon in his hand, pointed at the liquid flowing out of the stone wall, and said excitedly: "Torch! Bring the torch, let's see what is flowing out?"
Ke Kai and other people who were sitting on the ground to rest immediately rushed over, but when they saw the liquid flowing out of the stone wall, they were all shocked.
Because the liquid that comes out is bright red

After a few breaths of blood, the whole ground shook violently, as if something had woken up. . . . . .
———
Outside the cave, Ziyang, who had a conspicuous scar on his side, was stretching his limbs and moving his body, and the bones all over his body made a clicking sound.
"You haven't moved for a few days. Are you not used to it?" A dull voice sounded from behind him.
Two black figures came out of the cave, it was Xiaoliu and Guan Yue.
Zi Yang twisted his neck and said, "I have been lying on the ground to rest for so long, and now I can finally stand up."
After saying that, he felt like something was stuck to his face. He immediately reached out and touched it, and said slightly confused: "My face..."
Obviously, he also knew about the scar on his face, but he didn't know where it came from.
Guan Yue looked at Ziyang blankly and said, "You were hit in the face by that red-haired boy named Tang Sheng. You won't forget it, right?"
Although Xiaoliu didn't speak, he stared at Ziyang with bright eyes and a puzzled expression.
Zi Yang looked at Guan Yue beside him with some dissatisfaction, and complained: "Guan Yue, how did you treat my injury? I have such a big scar on my face, didn't you see it?"
Guan Yue said innocently: "Hey? Ziyang, you have to speak according to your conscience. It's true that I am a doctor, but as a doctor without herbal medicine, how do you ask me to save people?"
"Do you know? In order to save you and treat your injuries this time, I almost ran out of herbs on my body."
"I also want those scars on your body to fall off as soon as possible, but there are no herbs. What do you want me to do?"
He glanced at Zi Yang and said, "If I hadn't taken care of Yue, you would have been dead long ago, let alone saving your eyes. Why are you still criticizing me now?"
After hearing what he said, Zi Yang smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not saying anything wrong with you, nor am I blaming you..."
Guan Yuede said indifferently: "Then what do you mean?"
Zi Yang spoke in a gentle tone, intending to please: "I... I just want to ask, that's all. Don't overthink it."
Seeing that his attitude was quite good, Guan Yue didn't deliberately embarrass him, and said: "I don't have many herbs on my body. You have to find a way to get some herbs for me, otherwise, you will be poisoned or injured next time." , I really can’t do anything.”
Zi Yang said indifferently: "This is easy to handle! Because of the three-tailed howling wolf thing, there are a lot of people around us. What herbs do you need? We can just borrow some from them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Liu's voice sounded, "Borrow it? How can you borrow it?"
Zi Yang heard the tone of her voice and knew what she meant. He said, "Borrowing. Of course it's borrowing because you and I are willing to do it."
Xiao Liu asked again: "We have been in the Ghost Realm for so long, and so have they. How do you know they are not short of medicinal herbs?"
Zi Yang smiled and said: "If it doesn't work out, we can also exchange things with them. There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved. The main thing is to do what you want."
"Some people come here just to get a single-colored stone, but they are not strong enough, or they are unlucky and don't get it. We can exchange the colored stone with them. Is this okay?"
Xiaoliu stopped talking after hearing what he said. No matter what, as long as she was here, she would never let Ziyang behave like a bandit.
