After He Siniang said this, the three of them turned their heads in unison and looked at the closed stone door at the end of the corridor. Is there no road behind this stone door, so there is no record on the mural?
But since there is no road left, why build a stone gate?
The Taoist priest with a grimace slowly walked to the stone door, looked at He Siniang who was following him and said, "Since you can't guess, just open the door and take a look. You and Lao Qi, Siniang, are on the side to support you. I'll take action now." "
Seeing the two men nodding in agreement, the grimace Taoist priest began to push the stone door.
This stone door is not locked, and it is much easier to push than expected. The stone doors in the entire cave seem to be like this. Except for the first one that is sealed, the other stone doors are easy to open and close, and the same is true for the one in front of me. In this way, the grim-faced Taoist priest pushed the stone door inward with little effort.
As the sound of the stone door hitting the rock wall rang out, a dark space behind the door appeared in front of everyone. The Taoist Priest with a grimace was just about to ask He Siniang to hit the torch behind the door. Suddenly, the door warmed up and he discovered that there were bursts of people inside. The warm current blew towards me.
He Siniang and Luo Laoqi also felt the warmth. Luo Laoqi was even more surprised and said: "Why is it hot?! Who lit the fire behind the door?"
He Siniang hurriedly shined the torch behind the door, only to see that there was still a long tunnel inside, and the waves of warm current came from the tunnel.
"It's really fucking endless!" Luo Laoqi looked at the dark tunnel and said: "There is such a section behind every stone door. Are we encountering a ghost and breaking the wall?"
He Siniang shook her head: "It's obviously different behind this stone door. Look at the surrounding rock walls. They are rougher than the tunnels we walked through before. They have not been repaired at all. There are also these waves of warm currents and the biting cold air above. It feels completely different.”
"It's really a world of difference." Luo Laoqi touched his forehead: "The breeze is really comfortable, even Sajia is sweating a little."
"But why is there warm wind in this tunnel?" He Siniang looked at the grim-faced Taoist priest next to her in confusion. Seeing that he was frowning in deep thought, she couldn't help but ask, "What did the Taoist priest think of?"
"Can you smell the yellow (sulfur) smell of stone flow?" the Taoist priest with a grimace suddenly asked.
"Shiliu Huang?"
He Siniang and Luo Laoqi sniffed hard when they heard this, then shook their heads and said, "No? Did the Taoist priest smell it?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace nodded: "This smell is mixed with the warm current. Lao Qi has a bad nose and can't smell it normally. How come you, Si Niang, don't smell it?"
"The Sa family's nose is not as good as that of Taoist Priest's dog."
"Although I have been refining medicine for many years, my sense of smell is not that sharp, but it is still normal. The smell of this yellow stone must be like what Lao Qi said. The Taoist priest's nose is so good that only you can smell it. "
The Taoist priest with a grimace smiled helplessly when he heard this, and said: "When it comes to teasing people, you two are better than the other, but this Taoist man is not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, let's go inside and have a look."
"Let's go, we have to go in anyway." He Siniang said and walked towards the stone door, and continued: "I don't doubt the Taoist priest's sense of smell, but why do the yellow stones appear in this warm current? smell?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace followed He Siniang into the door. Hearing the words, he replied: "Siniang, are you confused too? We have clearly experienced this situation once."
He Siniang was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted: "Qing Leling!"
"Yes, that day we went deeper from the Qingleling Underground Palace to the Underground Cave Country. Didn't the yellow smell of stone flow get stronger and stronger along the way? When we completely entered the boundary of the Cave Country, the entire air was even filled with this Smells like death.”
"Yes, who would have thought that there is a fire hidden under the ground..." He Siniang suddenly stopped: "Does the Taoist suspect that this warm current also comes from the underground volcano?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace nodded: "Otherwise? Is it true that someone is lighting a fire inside as Lao Qi said?"
"But this is too ridiculous. We are in a high mountain, not on the ground..." He Siniang seemed to realize something as she spoke. They had no idea how far they had walked down the tunnels and spiral staircases. At this moment, he might actually be under the ground.
He Siniang looked at the grim-faced Taoist priest with some surprise and asked, "Isn't it right? We really walked through the entire mountain vertically?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace shrugged: "Who knows? Even poor Taoists rely on guessing, but the smell of the yellow stone is definitely true. Can't you smell it now?"
Luo Laoqi shook his head as usual.
He Siniang had already smelled the smell at this time, and said: "I can indeed smell it here, but the smell is very faint. The Taoist priest just smelled it, and I really have a good nose."
"Then it's wrong to believe in Taoism?"
"So there might actually be a volcano at the end of the tunnel?"
"I feel that I am close to ten, but Si Niang, you said that the smell of the yellow stone is still very weak, so the volcano should be still some distance away from here. When Lao Qi can smell the smell, it will prove that we are not far away from the volcano. Far."
"Hey, even if the Sa family smells it, they won't hesitate to tell it."
"Let's talk if you can smell it. Let's continue on our way quickly. Pindao is becoming more and more curious about what is at the end of the tunnel."
"Me too, let's go."
After that, the three of them continued to go deeper into the tunnel. This time, their steps were a little faster, and they began to look forward to what the next stop would really look like.
As the saying goes, "Haste makes waste." When the three of them walked away and went deeper into the tunnel, they found that the tunnel was very chaotic. In the process, they turned left, right, and down again. The three of them walked around the tunnel for half a stick of incense, but still couldn't see the end of the tunnel.
At this time, the grim-faced Taoist priest at the head of the team slowed down and muttered: "This damn tunnel is too long. The poor Taoist smelled the yellow smell of the stone flow and it stung his nose, but he still couldn't see the end. "
He Siniang also responded from behind: "The smell is indeed getting heavier and the temperature is much higher. Now let alone Lao Qi, I'm starting to sweat."
"You just started to sweat? The sweat on Pindao's forehead hasn't stopped."
"What do you two think? Sajia's armpits are all soaked." Luo Laoqi shouted from behind: "Who would have thought that coming to the snowy mountain to fight would make Sajia sweat all over, he would die from the heat inside , there’s no need to lose the old face of the Sa family.”
"You're so hot that you still want to show your ass. Just keep holding on. I feel like the wind is getting stronger in front of me. I guess we're not far from the end."
