"Why is there a piece of stone sculpture?"
Lu Li thought he was dazzled and couldn't help but rub his eyes.
It's true, half of the stone sculptures on the mountainside are indeed exposed outside the purple sandstone, but the exposed parts are not much, and it is difficult to judge what the overall stone sculptures are.
Seeing this, Lu Li put away his pupil technique, then jumped up and turned into a stream of light and flew towards the hill a hundred miles away!
Benedict!
A heavy voice sounded.
Lu Li stepped into the fine purple sand next to the stone sculpture. It turned out that the sand and stones under his feet were actually hidden, and a hole was made in him in an instant.
At the same time, the surrounding fine sand flowed into the hole, and the hole began to gradually expand.
Lu Li reacted quickly and moved to the side in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the hole expanding, he couldn't help but move to the side again. Finally, when the hole expanded to about five feet, it stopped expanding, and the surrounding sand and gravel stopped rolling down.
A five-foot-sized pothole caught Lu Li's eyes.
Lu Li could not see the scene inside the cave from his perspective, so he did not immediately move over to observe the inside of the pit. Instead, he walked to the upper right and looked at the half of the stone carving.
As the surrounding fine sand flows into the pothole, more of the stone sculptures that were originally buried are exposed. Lu Li could roughly tell that it was a bird head.
Carved very delicately.
The pointed beak, sharp eyes, and even the feathers on the head are all carved.
But perhaps it has been around for too long, and the lines are no longer so obvious at this time.
Lu Li pondered for a moment and started to clean up the surrounding gravel. He thought he could see the whole stone sculpture, but unexpectedly, it was only half of the stone sculpture.
That is the first half of the bird's body.
Then the last half of the bird's body and the parts below its feet were missing.
The fracture was smooth and smooth, and it looked as if someone had cut off the first half of the bird's body with a slanted sword.
"Why are there such stone sculptures here?"
Lu Li pinched his chin with a thoughtful expression.
This stone carving seems to be old at first glance, and it should not be a product of the past tens of thousands of years.
And this kind of stone carving should not be something that any casual cultivator who lives temporarily should have, because even if the casual cultivator builds a cave, it is impossible for him to have such a leisurely time to create such a stone carving.
"Could it be that Purple Thunder Mountain was once the seat of some sect?" Lu Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and such an idea suddenly appeared in his heart.
"If that's true, then there should be more than just this one statue here." Thinking of this, Lu Li looked around again, searching everywhere.
But he looked around and couldn't find any extra statues.
I don’t know if he made a mistake in his judgment or it was buried underground.
Lu Li did not continue searching. He walked towards the pothole, his feet heavy with anger. His feet seemed to be stepping on the ground, but in fact they were not.
Um?
When he came to the pit and looked down, he found that the pit was much deeper than he thought. It was pitch black at first glance and he couldn't see the bottom at all.
Go down and have a look?
Human beings are always curious about unknown things, and Lu Li is no exception.
But he did not go down immediately. Instead, he used his pupil technique to stare down and look down carefully. This time, he also failed to see the bottom.
It's not that the distance between his pupils is not enough, it's that the hole is not straight, and is as curved as the intestines. After looking not far, the line of sight is completely blocked.
However, at least within the visual range, no hidden restrictions were found.
Lu Li took a few steps back, took out the sound transmission jade, and called Ning Wuzhou: "Brother, come here."
After saying that, he sat down and waited quietly.
About half a quarter of an hour later, a sound of piercing the sky suddenly sounded in the north, and then Ning Wuzhou flew over and landed on the opposite side of the pothole: "Brother, are you looking for me?"
Lu Li stood up and said, "I found this pothole here. I wanted to go down and have a look, but I was worried that you wouldn't be able to find me then, so I asked you to come over and join me."
"So that's it."
Ning Wuzhou suddenly realized what he said. He looked down and saw nothing but darkness. He couldn't see anything at all, so he asked, "Is there anything extraordinary here?"
Lu Li shook his head and said, "I just came here and saw that this pothole appeared very strange, so I wanted to go down and have a look."
"Understood."
Ning Wuzhou nodded, suddenly looked at the bird-headed stone sculpture in the distance, and was stunned by it: "Hey! There is actually a stone sculpture here?"
Lu Li asked unexpectedly: "Brother, have you seen him before?"
Ning Wuzhou said: "Well, I also saw a broken stone sculpture in the north, but it's different from this one. It looks like a stone lion."
"oh?"
"So, this place might have been the location of a certain sect before." Lu Li said with his eyes shining.
Ning Wuzhou didn't think about it at first, but now after hearing what Lu Li said, he also felt that it was a possibility and nodded in agreement.
Then, the two of them discussed it and asked Ning Wuzhou's Qingling Bird to explore the way in front, and then the two of them followed behind to see what was down there.
The Qing Ling Bird is extremely small, and after its aura is restrained, it becomes as inconspicuous as an ordinary bird. Driven by Ning Wuzhou, it flapped its wings and slowly flew down into the pit.
Lu Li and Ning Wuzhou walked down side by side, trying their best to contain their breath.
The potholes are curved and erratic.
The further down you go, the darker the light inside, and it also feels a bit colder.
"It's almost the end."
About a quarter of an hour after sinking, Ning Wuzhou suddenly heard from Lu Li and said.
Lu Li looked relaxed and nodded without replying.
In this way, after a while, the passage below suddenly opened up like a downward trumpet, and at the same time, the chirping sound of the green spirit bird came from below.
Lu Li looked down and saw that he had indeed reached the bottom. But what made Lu Li frown was that he actually saw several corpses lying on the ground below.
The bones were dim and dull, with many wormholes and traces of weathering on them. They looked like they had been dead for an unknown number of years.
"Why are there bones here?"
Ning Wuzhou landed aside, stared at the corpses, and frowned.
Lu Li was also a little confused. He looked back and forth and found that the injured parts of the several corpses were surprisingly consistent. That is, several ribs on the left chest were broken. It looked like they died at the hands of the same person.
"Sin...sin!"
Lu Li turned his eyes and suddenly discovered that there were still a few dull storage rings left on the hands of several corpses, so he walked over to pick them up and take a look.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he took it, the storage ring turned into slag.
Lu Li was speechless.
Chi Chi! Chichi…!
At this moment, Ning Wuzhou's green spirit bird suddenly made an impatient sound, and at the same time it flapped its wings and flew back from a distance. It landed on the back of Ning Wuzhou's hand and shivered, as if it felt something terrifying.
"What's wrong?" Lu Li asked via voice message.
"There seems to be danger over there."
Ning Wuzhou pointed to the dark cave on the right and said with a solemn expression.
That cave is not small.
It is two to three feet wide and four to five feet high.
But it is also curved and uncertain, and it is difficult to see clearly at a glance.
Lu Li squeezed his right hand gently and held the Fantasy Moon Sword in his hand. He said in a deep voice, "What kind of danger is it? A fairy beast or a human being. Can the Green Spirit Bird sense the specific cultivation level?"
