"Captain Luo, how did you know the cracks behind this? Do you have clairvoyance?" Liang Guochun questioned.
"Xiao Qi is a fellow practitioner of Lingwu. This is a method of spiritual cultivation. General Liang Lang, you don't understand this." Before Luo Xing could explain, Hu Sanniang spoke for her first.
Liang Guochun smiled. He really didn't understand spiritual cultivation, so naturally he couldn't raise any more questions.
"These rocks have been weathered for thousands of years and are no longer so hard. As long as we can open a crack to connect them, maybe we can get out."
"Who will try first?"
"I'll go first." Without saying a word, Duan Tieniu raised his weapon and slammed the black iron rod in the direction pointed by Luo Xing's finger just now.
boom!
There was a muffled sound.
The black iron rod was inserted nearly a foot deep at once. Duan Tieniu shouted, suddenly pulled the black iron rod out, and then punched it in another position.
With this operation, Duan Tieniu soon blasted out a doorway in the stone wall, which was four or five feet deep enough for people to enter and exit.
Clear out the rocks.
Find someone else.
Yang Yingchun picked up a long knife from the ground. The strength of a first-grade grandmaster was revealed, and he slashed seven or eight times, sending rocks flying.
After stopping and everyone cleaning up, the cave entrance moved forward another ten feet.
The Lu brothers took over, and they started digging together. It looked like they were digging four feet. It wasn't that they couldn't do it, but the deeper they went in, the denser and harder the rock became.
Liang Guochun also took action. He was the weakest one. He tried his best to get it out to less than two feet.
He blushed, a little embarrassed.
Then there was Hu Sanniang, who was now also a first-grade grandmaster. Although her level was not as good as Yang Yingchun's, she was much better than Duan Tieniu and the Lu brothers. She dug five or six feet in one go and was panting from exhaustion.
According to Ji Yuer's estimate, the crack was about ten meters away from the stone wall, which was about thirty feet.
In other words, the crack is still five or six feet away.
Luo Xingcai has a third-level cultivation level. Based on the distance that everyone has dug before, it would be great if he could dig in two feet. The further in, the harder the rock becomes and the harder it is to shake.
Luo Xing used a knife or other tool, but put his hand on the stone wall and slowly closed his eyes.
Any rock contains water. As long as the water inside is extracted, these stones will turn into powder. Except for simple minerals that do not contain water, almost all impurities will contain water.
Therefore, Luo Xing's method is to extract the water from the stone wall, which will make it much easier to chisel the stone.
Of course, it would be easier if you had gunpowder.
Bobo…
A sound like "fried beans" sounded.
The stones were like weathered brick walls, falling down layer by layer, but Yang Yingchun and others were stunned.
If this method has been available for a long time, why do you need to let everyone use so much effort?
But everyone quickly understood that after Luo Xing finished all this, there was a layer of sweat on his forehead, and he looked extremely strenuous.
He used the "water gathering" technique to store the water in the rock into the dragon scale ring. Firstly, he would not let others know his secret, and secondly, it might be useful to store some water.
When the last rock cracked, a dark crack appeared in front of everyone like a big open mouth, and everyone was refreshed.
Sure enough, there was a crack, and there seemed to be a faint sound of wind coming from the crack, blowing on everyone, giving them a chilly feeling.
When there is wind, there is air flow, which means there is an outlet to the outside world.
This is a good thing.
But whether it was dangerous or not, he had to check it. Luo Xing lit a fire folder and threw it violently inside. The fire flashed in the air, but it did not go out, and nothing terrible happened.
"Let's go!" Luo Xing greeted happily and took the lead to get into the crack.
Everyone filed in.
The crack was relatively small, and except for necessary supplies, everything that should be discarded was thrown away, but Duan Tieniu carried his beloved iron pot with him no matter what.
I have no choice but to let him go, just in case I can't take him anymore.
As for the secret of the Heart-Protect Dragon Scale Ring, it must not be exposed now.
This crack is very long. Judging from its irregular lines, it should have been caused by an earthquake. The narrowest part is only about thirty centimeters, and the widest part is only four or five feet. And where does the crack lead? No one knows now.
Luo Xing walked at the front, judging the direction entirely by sensing the direction of the wind blowing in the crack.
Luo Xing and others worked tirelessly to find a chance to get out of the big crack, but it was already dark outside. Luo Chengzong and others relied on the marks left by the inside line along the way.
Finally found the place where Hu Sanniang and others stayed.
But by the time they arrived, Hu Sanniang and others had already left.
"Senior Brother Luo, these ashes have been cold for a long time. I think they left long ago." A Tianlan Sect disciple stretched out his hand to check the temperature of the ashes left by the burning fire.
"They still make fires to cook here, and the food is pretty good..."
"The point is, where did they go?" Luo Chengzong asked.
"Chengzong, they are only half a day ahead of us. They shouldn't have gone far. The clues should be nearby." Mingkong came over and said.
"I know that this is the territory of the Manggu Niu Lord. Our Tianlan Sect has an old grudge with the Manggu Niu Lord, so everyone should be careful and don't conflict with the cattle, especially the Red Flame Demonic Cow." Luo Chengzong solemnly reminded, "Put away all items with the Tianlan Sect's mark."
"Yes, Senior Brother Luo."
"From now on, you all call me Captain Luo. We are all members of the Dazhou Inspection Department and have nothing to do with the Tianlan Sect." Luo Chengzong ordered.
"Yes, Captain Luo."
"Chengzong, where am I?" Mingkong asked.
"Uncle Master, you are the person in charge of the Inspection Department, we will just call you Chief Ming." Luo Chengzong thought for a moment and said.
"Okay, this is best to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Senior Brother Luo, fresh footprints were found here..."
"What's your name?" Luo Chengzong frowned and asked.
"Captain Luo..."
"We are on this trip with the highest priority. If you report to me like this, don't you directly expose my identity?" Luo Chengzong shouted.
"Yes, I was wrong." That day, the Lan Sect disciple immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
"Chengzong, the sudden change of title requires everyone to adapt. Don't be too harsh." Mingkong immediately came out to smooth things over and said.
The disciple bowed gratefully.
"Let's go and have a look."
"Judging from the direction of the footprints, they should be heading towards the valley. We only need to follow the footsteps on the ground to chase them, and there will be no problem."
"Could it be a scam?"
"No, I recognize these footprints. They belong to our internal agent. He must be too hasty to leave a mark for us, so he can only use this most obvious method." Luo Chengzong stood up and waved his hand to follow the footprints. passed.
…
The people in the crack didn't know how long they had been walking. Anyway, if they were asked to return the same way now, they probably wouldn't know the way.
Luo Xing walked in the front, and the more he walked, the more uneasy he became. There was no end to this, and his confidence would continue to lose.
Even if Ji Yuer is leading the way.
But there's no good news.
Silence is the greatest harm.
He really wanted to wake up the sleeping "Black Bell Spirit", but the "Black Bell Spirit" seemed to consume too much when controlling herself to open the cold jade coffin. No matter how she called out in the sea of spiritual consciousness, there was no response.
Now you can only rely on yourself.
Confidence lies in a little bit of silence. At the beginning, everyone could still talk, communicate, and even make a few jokes, but now, basically they don’t speak much.
No one knows what will happen if we move forward, whether we will stay here forever and not be able to get out.
"Qilang, there is light ahead." Suddenly, Ji Yuer's voice came into Luo Xing's mind. This news was nothing short of a huge surprise for this silent team.
Sure enough, after moving forward another fifty meters, a faint ray of light appeared in the crack in front, and everyone's mood instantly improved.
Where there is light, there is hope.
The speed of everyone's feet became much faster. As the light approached, everyone was convinced that it was not an illusion that appeared after walking in the dark for a long time. It was all real.
They really saw the light.
"Everyone, be careful. The situation outside the crack is unknown. Try not to make any noise. Use sound transmission to communicate." Luo Xing warned.
As everyone slowly approached the crack, they even heard the sound of "rumbling" water. There was water outside, and it should be the sound of a waterfall.
Luo Xingtang took the first step, cautiously approached the crack, and slightly poked his head out to take a look.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
The fissure they were in was located on an extremely high cliff, and not far to their left, a waterfall fell from the sky. There was a deep pool below the waterfall. This was a gap. Look up. , the sky is like a line.
It's the word "一" with two heads decapitated.
There is a way to survive, but how to get out?
As soon as you stretch your feet, you will see a cliff, and the cliff is extremely smooth due to the water, and there is not even a place to stay.
Although there is a pool below, the depth of the water is unknown. If you jump in, there will be water as a buffer, so your life should not be in danger. However, after jumping in, you are still trapped.
It has become "sitting in a well and looking at the sky".
Fortunately, there are great masters who can stay in the air for a short time, fly up, and then lower the rope from above to pull people up.
"Get down!"
"What, get down?" Hei Zhongling suddenly woke up and said to Luo Xing, completely confusing him.
"There's something under the water."
"Something, what?"
"I don't know, but it should be related to the purpose of your trip." Hei Zhongling said, "This is my intuition. It's up to you whether you want to or not."
"Comrade Zhong Ling, you can't say even a single sentence. You have to make your words clear. We can obviously escape now, but you insist on us going into the water. You have to give a reason, right?" Luo Xing asked.
"I can't stop falling in love, so I fell asleep."
"No, why did you fall asleep again? Why do you always like to sleep, you idiot? You have slept for so many years, haven't you had enough sleep yet..."
