Chapter 313 Underground Fire Dragon
The tunnel dug by Ah Di was quite flat, enough for Yin Xiu to straighten his body, hold his head high and walk forward.
He really doubted whether this monk was a pangolin or a drill. Otherwise, how could he dig such an amazing tunnel?
Yin Xiu walked forward slowly, her boots making a squelching sound on the soil.
Unlike the soft soil on the mountain, the soil here appears to be quite hard. This is probably why Ah Dian was able to dig around in the ground but was not buried.
After walking a certain distance holding the light source, Yin Xiu came to a fork in the road.
The fork in the road beneath the earth is a frightening thing.
Unlike on the ground, there are two different roads. If you take the wrong path, you can just go back and take the other one.
Underground, there is probably no chance of turning back.
In a certain narrow gap, you can barely get in through a narrow gap. After discovering that there is a dead end ahead, you want to get back out, but in despair you find that the original road no longer allows you to return.
This is a common thing, it is like going down a tunnel, climbing a dangerous mountain, and sometimes it is like this in life.
However, for Yin Xiu, this uneasiness was slightly suppressed after seeing the mark on the wall.
Probably Ah Dian had taken a wrong path before and encountered rocks or streams at the end of a wrong road and had to turn back, so he angrily left a mark next to it.
At this moment, Yin Xiu saw that the two entrances were almost the same. After exploring them with [Transparency], he could only hope that Ah Di didn't have an attack at that time and left the correct reminder for himself.
With this mood in mind, Yin Xiu walked for a while, and his eyes suddenly became enlightened. It was some unknown insects and ores on the top of the cave that were emitting light, dots of green light.
Just as A Dian said, he dug a tunnel connected to the cave.
Yin Xiu looked around. It was fine up close, but further away, there was darkness. The light spots became like stars, looking cold and mysterious.
This was obviously a much larger cave than the one when Haruyo first brought him into the world of Wujian.
If that place is called Yaliu Street Cave, should this place be called Hongde Temple Cave, or Amituo Mountain Cave?
But as the hermits said, the name is the least important thing in Wujian, so Yin Xiu also followed the local customs and gave up the idea of naming this place.
This is where Ah Dian did not go any further. As he said himself, he was afraid of the dark, so he did not dare to take another step into the darkness.
Yin Xiu, on the other hand, did not rush in at this moment. He opened his hand and a bloody butterfly flew out of his hand.
But the bloody butterfly shadow only flew out in the air for a while, then fluttered back and landed on Yin Xiu's fingertips.
Because there is no need for it to fly out to explore the way.
Yin Xiu looked into the distance and saw a line of fire on the almost "horizon" that looked like a "fire dragon", moving at a slow and orderly rhythm.
That was obviously not a natural phenomenon, but some kind of creature moving.
Judging by the distance, it's probably eight miles away from Yin Xiu's place.
"A distance that is neither long nor far."
Yin Xiu shook her finger, and the butterfly flew towards the queue.
At the same time, he also extinguished the fire in his hand. When he jumped from the rock wall, he ran as fast as a cheetah, and his ears were filled with the whistling wind.
Even at this moment, the light emitted by those luminous objects was not enough to provide lighting, but with the enhanced vision and the visual sharing of the blood butterfly, Yin Xiu still seemed to be running in the daytime.
Or more than a person with perfect vision and adequate lighting can see. He crossed a large distance in a few times, and his feet seemed to be running and jumping. Whether it was a smooth surface or a bypassed pool, it was like walking on flat ground under Yin Xiu's feet.
The surrounding scenery receded quickly in his field of vision, and the fire dragon was getting closer and closer in his eyes.
Finally, when the two were only a few hundred meters apart, Yin Xiu slowed down and hid in the shadow of the stone.
At this time, he finally saw clearly that the creatures emitting fire were indeed humans.
There were both men and women, about a dozen of them. Their faces and figures were all shrouded in shadow, but the style of the black robe seemed completely different from that of the Qi Refiners, appearing more transparent and relaxed.
They just lined up in a long queue, following the people in front, and walked in silence.
Yin Xiu approached them cautiously. As the team passed through the "jungle" composed of stone pillars, Yin Xiu's body gradually became void.
Then a shadow swam toward the team quietly in the darkness, like a shark in calm waters, quickly and unnoticed.
When the team walked out of the Stone Pillar Forest, there was an extra person at the end of the team of more than a dozen people.
This man was dressed like them, and like them, he just walked with his head down.
The leader of the team paused for a moment, but it was only an imperceptible step. Soon he walked forward as if nothing had happened, as if his trouser leg had just been tripped by something, and it was nothing serious.
But on his cold face, a faint smile appeared at some point.
Everyone laughs, there's nothing special about it.
But that man looked really strange. He wasn't ugly, but he gave people a weird feeling.
He has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, a pair of narrowed eyes, and an obvious mole on his face, next to his nose and above his mouth.
The smile flashed away, just like the torch in his hand, as if the flame was flickered by the airflow and flickered.
This tense and orderly queue never stops no matter what it encounters.
They didn't care about the mud, quicksand, or gravel, and they didn't care whether it would stain their clothes or cut their skin. They just stepped on them one after another indifferently. Although their eyes didn't look ahead, they didn't look at their feet.
Yin Xiu had a vague feeling that these people must have nothing to do with Qi Refiners.
Because the temperament of the Qi Practitioners is completely different from theirs. The former are rigid and stubborn, while these people seem to be indifferent and don't care about anything.
They don't seem to care whether it's the situation of others or their own.
I'm afraid even if Yin Xiu doesn't use [Thousand-Changing Flowers] to disguise himself now, but instead walks in boldly and says to join the queue, these people will ignore him and go on their own, leaving him alone. He walked into the queue.
This is the freedom and ease that those underground Qi practitioners do not have. If anyone is more like an outsider, Yin Xiu will definitely vote for the ones in front of him in his heart.
Gradually, Yin Xiu also began to be infected and became a little aimless, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
Until they reached a mountain stream somewhere and saw an ancient stone gate there.
