One day half a month later.
Underground cabin.
Chen Mu stood at the end of the tunnel, and a dark crack half a person's height appeared in front of him.
Waves of cool air hit my face, and the faint sound of water rushing could be heard.
Chen Mu was surprised: "Is this crack connected to an underground river?"
Chen Mu felt happy: "If we can find a way along the Yin River, we won't have to dig a tunnel."
Although he had this idea, he was not in a hurry to drill down.
The vitality of the earth spirit nourishes all kinds of strange beasts and monsters. What if there is some strange beast hidden underneath.
Chen Mu immediately dug out a large stone from the nearby rock and blocked the entrance of the cave.
"Anyway, we've dug this far, don't be in a hurry, just use the five ghosts and ghosts to slowly explore forward."
…
For another five days, Chen Mu slowly widened the crack, digging down bit by bit, and finally came to a dark space.
The sound of rushing water became louder and louder.
Chen Mu activated the Qi Ban Baili, and a fluorescent algae lamp the size of a human head slowly floated up.
The bright white light illuminates this underground cave that has existed for countless years.
The cave is long in shape and generally runs in the north-south direction. The area is equivalent to two basketball courts, and the roof of the cave is about two or three stories high.
Weird stalactites are scattered everywhere, and below is a stream of water more than two meters wide, which can only become a stream.
The water rises from the rock crack at the top of the north side, disappears into the crack between the rocks at the height of one person below the south side.
"Follow the water flow to widen the cracks in the rocks, and a tunnel will be dug out soon."
Chen Mu made up his mind that if Leng Yuechan really came for revenge and a war broke out, he would go directly underground.
The sense of crisis brought about by Leng Yuechan was mostly dissipated immediately.
…
As the sun and moon go by, the weather gets colder and colder.
If calculated according to the Liang calendar, it is already January.
One night passed, and the entire Pengyue Mountain was suddenly covered with heavy snow.
There was a cold wind outside, but inside Chen Mu's wooden house it was as warm as spring.
A stone stove was placed under the east window, with traces of fire flickering in the gaps in the stove cover.
Beside the stove, Shang Huan looked left and right.
The extraordinarily thick cylindrical stone chimney, the two transparent pipes leading to the bottom of the floor, and the sound of boiling water coming from the chimney from time to time all made Shang Huan curious.
He stepped on the warm floor again and couldn't help but admire: "You still have this ability?"
"How about you get me one too? I'll give you white jade money!" Shang Huan looked arrogant.
"No time." Chen Mu didn't even look at Shang Huan, concentrating on preparing food on the kitchen table next to the stove.
"You asked about the Lengyuetan Dojo, didn't you just want to go?"
"As long as you make me a set, I'll take you there and I'll make sure you don't suffer any loss!" Shang Huan vowed.
Suffer?
Chen Mu's heart moved: "What's the significance of this?"
He did want to go to the dojo. He wanted to pave the way for exposing his cultivation and wanted to find out in advance.
"Of course there is a difference!" Shang Huan looked proud.
"Pengyue Mountain Dojo is located on Shuanggu Mountain on both sides of Lengyue Lake. It is a cave carved layer by layer on the cliff."
"The closer the layer is to Leng Yue Pond, the stronger the earth spirit energy will be."
"On the same level of a cave, the amount of earth spirit vitality is also different. Even in the same cave, there are changes at different times."
"With the difference, it will be profitable for some people." Shang Huan chuckled.
"I can let you spend the same money to find the dojo with the strongest energy."
"Make me a set, you won't lose, right?"
Chen Mu rolled his eyes, glanced at Shang Huan, and said calmly: "No time."
"Hey!" Shang Huan looked puzzled.
He immediately turned around and glared at Mr. Hao, who was smiling and smoking by the stove.
"It's just what you think." Mr. Hao shrugged.
"Xiao Mu just made a set for me yesterday." He exhaled a puff of white smoke happily: "What are the conditions? You should know."
"Damn old man! Ruin my good deeds!"
…
Preaching School.
The entrance to the Tibetan Buddhist Cave.
It's snowing heavily outside, but inside it's like spring all year round.
Fu Zi sat behind the counter with drooped eyelids as usual, looking at the jade slips.
A round-faced middle-aged man in his forties stood in front of the counter and whispered: "Song Prison came back yesterday, and it is said that they still found nothing."
"Leng Yue Chan is good at invisibility and can escape from the ground. It's not that easy to find." Fu Zi didn't care.
"I asked someone to tie up Young Supervisor Liang and send a cook to deliver meals to the Song Prison instead of Young Supervisor Liang."
"According to the cook, she seemed to see a bulge under the skin of Song Supervisor's neck, like a bulge like an insect crawling."
"But when she looked at it carefully, it was gone again. She wasn't sure if it was dazzling."
Fu Zi couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this, thought for a moment and said, "It's most likely true."
"The lead worm is an ancient zerg, and it's not that easy to control."
"I guess there was something wrong with Song Wuji's cultivation as early as Tongtianhe Lower Courtyard."
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost to Yang Huan of Chongshan Road so quickly."
Fu Zi couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "We have to help a bunch of Song Supervisors find the Leng Yue Toad."
"Do you want them both to suffer harm or even die together?!" The round-faced middle-aged man's eyes lit up.
"But Leng Yue Toad is hard to find." The middle-aged man frowned.
But Fu Zi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "I have been the capital of the Confucian Academy for decades. It is still somewhat useful."
"When I refine a copy of the demon-summoning incense, and then combine it with the vitality of the spirit of the cold moon pond, I don't have to worry about the cold moon toad not coming."
"Congratulations to the Duyuan!" The round-faced middle-aged man complimented with a smile: "The position of the superintendent of the lower courtyard of Pengyue Mountain belongs to Fu Duyuan."
Fu Zi smiled and waved his hand, sending the round-faced middle-aged man away, sitting alone behind the counter and watching the snow.
"Prisonhouse? Useless thing."
"What I want is Leng Yuetan!" Fu Zi couldn't help but clench his fists.
"As long as I absorb the yin and yang mixed earth spirit energy on the Cold Moon Pond, I will definitely be able to achieve perfection and successfully enter the yin and yang refining stage!"
"It's a pity that Leng Yuetan is too small, only enough for one person to practice." Fu Zi returned to expressionless: "Then I can only ask Brother Wuji to die."
…
clang!
The sound, like the chiming of a copper bell, suddenly sounded in a huge underground cave.
Chen Mu sat cross-legged on the black cloud of Five Ghosts, floating in the air, staring at the calm water below.
Not long after, there was a sound of splashing water.
All kinds of strange underwater creatures float up from the invisible underwater lake.
"Is there really a fish?!"
Half a month has passed since the first underground cave was discovered.
Chen Mu followed the water flow and dug holes in the rocks, and finally found this huge underground lake.
This place is fifty or sixty miles away from Pengyue Mountain, which has exceeded the previous land reclamation distance.
"As long as you find a rock crevice similar to the one you came from, and hit it up against the current, you will soon be able to open the exit."
"In this way, this underground escape tunnel will be completed!" Chen Mu let out a long sigh of relief.
"Catch fish, catch fish!" He stared at more and more underwater creatures with their belly turned white, his face full of joy.
The fifth-level cooking skills developed with "Explanation of Alien Beasts" allowed him to easily find edible fish and alien beasts.
If they don't taste good and don't recognize them, they will all be fed to the Five Ghost Bags.
"No matter how high prices are, we don't worry."
"This underground lake is full of aquatic products, but they are all waiting for me. Haha..."
