Chapter 2172
Xiao Lintian laughed when he heard Huangfulin's words: "Impossible, have you forgotten the map of Wuji Mountain? There are no big pools nearby!"
"Where does this water come from?"
Huangfulin asked doubtfully when he remembered that there was indeed no water pool on the map.
"There seems to be a mountain stream on the map!"
Zhao Xuan has already opened the map and started checking it.
"Yes, it is this mountain stream that flows down from the middle of the mountain. At that time, we were looking for a path into the mountain. We thought that the mountain stream was too remote, so we gave up on this road!"
Xiao Lintian pulled over the map to look at it, and while making gestures with his hands, he said excitedly: "This mountain stream is on the Sunda Line, which proves that we are on the right track!"
"Since there are no pools in Wuji Mountain, the water can only come from mountain streams. The road we dug is correct!"
"Keep digging, it's more than one meter, maybe the exit is close at hand!"
Pei Yu was digging in the triangle area, and the water flow had risen from his waist to his chest, and he was dripping wet.
He didn't know how long he had been digging, but Pei Yu vaguely heard the rhythmic tapping sound.
At first he thought he heard it wrong, that it was the echo caused by his sword digging into the stone, so he paused for a moment.
The knocking sound continued again.
Pei Yu was suddenly stunned. This was Morse code. Ling Yu had taught them the code during the four-nation military competition.
Pei Yu listened for a while, then laughed and shouted to Xiao Lintian.
"Brother, Sister Lingling is here to save us. She is outside. Listen, she is typing Morse code!"
Everyone looked at Pei Yu and listened quietly, then heard regular knocking sounds on the stone wall.
"It's Ayu!"
"It's the empress!"
Xiao Lintian and Qin Shan both heard the signal represented by the knocking sound and shouted excitedly.
"Answer her quickly!"
Xiao Lintian said excitedly: "Ayu must not know where we are and is looking for us in this way!"
"good!"
Pei Yu responded by tapping the code with his sword.
After a while, there was another knocking sound outside.
This time Xiao Lintian and others heard the message from Ling Yu with their own ears.
"I will follow the sound point and dig a hole outside."
This response was like a shot in the arm, making Pei Yu and his party more energetic and started digging with enthusiasm.
Less than half an hour later, Pei Yu suddenly saw a beam of light coming through the gap in the stone. It was the light of a torch.
"Sister Lingling..."
Pei Yu shouted excitedly.
Ling Yu also saw the light coming from here and was about to answer when Ge Fengqing, who came to help, came to the cave entrance and shouted.
"Brother, are you okay? We are here to rescue you. If you hold on for a while, the hole will open soon!"
Ling Yu curled her lips mockingly, Ge Fengqing's move to grab credit was really obvious.
Pei Yu didn't hear Ling Yu's voice, but heard Ge Fengqing's voice, and was stunned for a moment.
Why did Ge Fengqing come with Sister Lingling?
He would not think that the Morse code was typed by Ge Fengqing, and Ling Yu must be nearby.
"Miss Ge, please give in and let my people continue digging holes. I want to reminisce about old times and wait until they come out!"
Long Peipei pulled Ge Fengqing away with disdain and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up, the longer you delay, the easier it is to be discovered. We have to rescue the Grand Imperial Master before they find us!"
The secret guards brought by Long Peipei continued to dig holes.
Ling Yu then said: "How many of you were injured and how are their conditions? Can you continue to go down the mountain?"
"There are still two miles from here to the bottom of the mountain. The Grand Imperial Master and the people from Xingluo Palace are nearby. If there are too many injured, we will have to wait for reinforcements to arrive before we can leave!"
Pei Yu immediately replied: "The eldest brother is seriously injured and cannot use force anymore. The others can still walk!"
"By the way, Huangfu Mingzhu has been poisoned by a poison called Zilu and needs to be detoxified!"
